Shahid praises Deepika and Alia
Shahid Kapoor says actresses Deepika Padukone and Alia Bhatt are absolutely outstanding in their achievements as well as their performances. “There are so many actresses over the years who've been absolutely outstanding in their achievements, in their performances. Maybe Nargisji, Madhubala, Madhuri Dixit, Kajol — or among the contemporaries, people like Deepika, Alia. There have been so many fantastic actors over the years, and one learns from seeing their performances. And one enjoys working with the contemporary lot,” he said.
‘I am proud that my children are not the echoes of their parents. Farhan and Zoya have been totally different from the work that I have done. There was no shadow at all and that's wonderful.’

‘The worst Prez’
Game Of Thrones author George R.R. Martin says America has elected the ‘worst’ President ever.
“Trump was the least qualified candidate ever nominated by a major party for the Presidency. Come January, he will become the worst President in American history and a dangerously unstable player on the world stage,” wrote the author in a new blog post.
“And the decimated Democrats, a minority in both House and Senate, do not have the power to hinder him. Over the next four years, our problems are going to get much, much worse. Winter is coming. I told you so.” Martin was a staunch supporter of Hillary Clinton and a harsh critic of Trump in the days leading up to the election.
