A few days ago before leaving for Paris, when Ajay Devgan had a chat with Tusshar Kapoor about his next release Rohit Shetty’s Golmaal Returns, little did Tusshar realise what was in store for him.

REVIEW - The Solaris Book of New Fantasy (Part 3) (3 clicks)
October 11 2008
Been quite busy lately. But here's the third part of my serialized review of The Solaris Book of New Fantasy, with comments for another three stories. For those who missed it, part one is here and part two is here. The ninth story in the anthology is The Wizard's Coming by Juliet E. McKenna, a piece about a company of riders running from a terrible mage in a medieval-like setting. It is a short epic that drags on many characters, places, and plot twists to tell a tale of duty and betrayal.

The matches continue to be a close fight, and this time, it was the clash of Hanyuu and San that proved to be a nailbiter, especially for Higurashi fans that got burnt once before. But on the flip side, Seto no Hanayome fans bet all their stakes on this round, with both their characters fighting in separate matches … in the end, both their characters were in the same place in the end of the round.
