Since the last few days, the world is going through a tumultuous series of events creating a constant pandemonium among people. With the declaration of the Corona Virus as Pandemic by the World Health Organization, the world is at a point of breakdown. Many people have lost their lives while many are fighting for it. We all know prevention is always better than cure but are we taking enough precautions? At this point of time, it has become a necessity to keep oneself healthy and fit in order to have a strong immunity, all of which directly depend upon what kind of food we are consuming. If we want to keep ourself healthy and fit, then it is better to include organic food in our diet.

Studies have proved that organic food is healthier as compared to the conventional ones. For one, these kinds of food completely lack chemicals or synthesizers which have harmful effects on human health. Organic food is prepared without using any chemicals and fertilizers and therefore helps in improving and maintaining our immune system. At this point of time, where we are surrounded by the danger of being affected with life killing viruses like Covid 19, it is utmost essential to consume organic food which will increase our body’s ability to fight against the virus and eliminate the infections caused by it. Additionally, organic foods are rich in antioxidant, which in turn enhances the immunity of the body.

According to Mr. Atul Malikram, “Currently we are at war against Corona with our body as our weapon. Like a weapon, our body needs to be strong and sharp all the time. Organic food provides nourishment to us and is much better than other food. Also, organic foods are always fresh and do not contain any artificial flavors and chemicals. It keeps our body active and minds fresh and in turn, helps us to have a productive day.”
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is a matter of choice. With the sudden turmoil of Covid 19 going around, we should take necessary precautions to save ourselves and our closed ones from this impending life taking disease. Remember a healthy body is a symbol of a healthy mind.

‘वर्ल्ड पैरानाॅर्मल डे’ पर ‘लाल इश्क’ ने बताया कि उसने 230 तरह के भूत बनाने और उन्हें डरावना दिखाने के लिये क्या किया


टेलीविजन और सिनेमा में मजेदार कंटेंट की बहार आ गयी है, फैंटेसी-हाॅरर कहानियां हमेशा से ही दर्शकों की पसंदीदा रही हैं। इस जोनर को बखूबी दिखा रहे, &tv के ‘लाल इश्क’ ने अपने दिलचस्प और डरावने कंटेंट से दर्शकों के दिलों में एक खास जगह बना ली है। दर्शक हमेशा से ही टेलीविजन परदे पर भूतों को देखना पसंद करते हैं, लेकिन क्या आपको पता है कि इन्हें इतना डरावना और वास्तविक दिखाने के लिये क्या-क्या करना पड़ता है?

एक भूत को इतना डरावना होना चाहिये कि वह किसी की भी कल्पना पर खरा उतर पाये। भूत को बनाने में कई सारे स्टेप होते हैं, इसकी शुरुआत एक डरावना किरदार गढ़ने से होती है। ‘लाल इश्क’ के प्रोड्यूसर ने ‘वर्ल्ड पैरानाॅर्मल डे’ के मौके पर कुछ मजेदार बातें साझा कीं। ‘‘लाल इश्क’ पर हमने करीब 230 भूत तैयार किये हैं। उन्हें असली बनाने और दर्शकों को डराने के लिये, काफी सारे प्रोस्थैटिक मेकअप का इस्तेमाल किया जाता है। इस प्रोस्थैटिक को बनाने में लगभग 4-5 दिन का वक्त लगता है और इसके बावजूद यदि वह वैसा नज़र नहीं आये तो हम उसे दोबारा करते हैं। यह एक लंबी चलने वाली प्रक्रिया होती है। इसके बाद, पोस्टप्रोडक्शन चरण में, एडिटिंग में काफी ज्यादा वीएफएक्स का काम होता है, जोकि भूतों को तैयार करने में एक और महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका अदा करता है। हम वीएफएक्स पर काफी ज्यादा निर्भर रहते हैं, इससे भूत डरावने और खौफनाक नज़र आते हैं।’’

‘लाल इश्क’ में एक भूत की भूमिका निभाने वाले मयंक मिश्रा इस शो में काम करने के अपने अनुभव के बारे में बताते हैं। वह कहते हैं, ‘‘एक भूत की भूमिका करना मानसिक और शारीरिक रूप से चुनौतीपूर्ण होता है, क्योंकि किसी एक्टर को यह दिखाने का मौका नहीं मिलता कि वह कौन है। मुझे ‘लाल इश्क’ में ऐसे एक किरदार के लिये तैयार होने में लगभग 6 घंटे का समय लगा था। प्रोस्थैटिक और काॅस्ट्यूम की वजह से इतना वक्त लगा था। जब मैंने इस भूमिका के लिये हामी भरी थी तो मेरे दिमाग में यह बात आयी थी कि यह चुनौतीपूर्ण होने वाला है। साथ ही, जब मैं छोटा था तो मुझे एक बुरा भूत बनने के सपने आते थे। हर बच्चे के दिमाग में भूत को लेकर एक अलग तरह की धारणा होती है और मेरी कल्पना की दुनिया से ऐसे ही एक किरदार को निभाने का मौका मिलना बहुत ही अच्छी बात थी।’’

इस ‘वर्ल्ड पैरानाॅर्मल डे’ पर ‘लाल इश्क’ अपने दर्शकों के लिये ऐसे ही दिलचस्प और डरावने एपिसोड लेकर आने वाला है।

परदे पर ऐसे ही कुछ फैंटेंसी हाॅरर का आनंद लेने के लिये, देखिये ‘लाल इश्क’ &tv पर रात 10 बजे हर शनिवार और रविवार
