I removed the Jewelry ad's since they were getting to much attention from people who "definately" knew it wasn't her, so I'm not going argue. but this one is labeled and it's about her movie that you all have heard of and it's as official as official can get, so enjoy!
India is in the throes of the new global economy. The new capitalist order is changing people's lives. But a new
war of ideals is separating the old values from the new…
There is also the war with Pakistan…the two brothers who are fighting for Kashmir. The two countries have equipped themselves with Oppenheimer's deadly toy…
Arjun, 18 years old, lives in the northern suburbs of Bombay with his widowed mother Sheela, who works hard to make ends meet. She has one goal in life that Arjun gets a diploma and a good job. Arjun is attracted to Salma, a girl from a Muslim upper class family. Somewhere Arjun knows that she is beyond his reach.
Chabia, 21 yrs old, is Arjun's best friend, a mechanic in a garage. Chabia loves Mona,
a dancer in a cabaret bar. Chabia hates seeing those rich men showering her with money as she dances for them. She wants to go and work in Dubai.
Rohit, a rich young boy brings his BMW car to service it in Chabia's garage. Chabia fixes his car with some cheap spares that he has procured from some dubious sources. Rohit is happy and invites Chabia for a drink in a posh club in downtown Bombay. Chabia thinks that this is an opportunity for him to meet people from the upper class. But things turn out badly for them and the bouncers beat them up. Rohit does not help them.The tensions on the border increase…the military build-up intensifies. Both countries test their intercontinental ballistic missiles.
Chabia steals money from his brother and plans to run away with Mona and start a new life. But she has cold feet at the last minute and goes off to work in the cabarets of Dubai.
Arjun fails his diploma examination as he tries to cheat using fake examination papers that Chabia had procured for him. The two friends want to do something to leave this climate of despair.
An old friend returns from abroad, with stories of his fortunes. He was going to retire in a few years. He had made his money. Chabia tries to convince Arjun to go abroad with him, but Arjun does not want to leave his mother alone. Chabia & Arjun decide to meet an employment agent who promises them jobs for a huge fee.
Chabia manages to arrange for his fee but Arjun cannot manage his. Chabia tells him to ask his mother Sheela to lend him the money. At first, Sheela is very angry but finally succumbs to her son's demand.

Special Screening of LET THE WIND BLOW - HAVA ANEY DEY in Manchester 09th March 2005 at 20:00hrs at the AMC 16 Cinema
Commonwealth Film Festival Press communique:
"We are thrilled to be inviting last year's BBC Audience Award Winner for Best Feature Film Let the Wind Blow (Hava Aney Dey), back to Manchester for a special screening at AMC 16 Cinemas. The screening will take place on Wednesday 9th of March.
Director Partho Sen Gupta is currently looking to find a window in his busy schedule to come to Manchester to introduce the film and be on hand for a Q&A after the screening. (tbc)
Let the Wind Blow is a moving and honest film from India which portrays human choices and opinions on the streets of Mumbai against the backdrop of escalating nuclear tension between India and Pakistan.
Raised by a single, loving mother, Arjun's future is uncertain. As his idle teenage days end, his traditional choices are limited and uninspiring - especially as peace appears impossible. But his best friend, Chabia, a mechanic and wheelerdealer influenced by the aspirations of his cabaret-dancing girlfriend, believes they should challenge their destiny and leave behind India's political atmosphere of despair. Chabia's path must be weighed up against the unattainable future Arjun glimpses through the eyes of a beautiful and rich classmate, Salma.
Let the Wind Blow has been shown extensively at festivals around the world including last year's Berlin Film Festival, the Trois Continents Festival in Nantes, the 28th Hong Kong International Film Festival, where it received a Special Jury Mention, and the Durban International Film Festival where it won Best Film. "
The screening is open to the public. Tickets can be obtained from AMC 16 Cinemas.

Berlinale Press release on the Forum 2004 - Indian Films in the Forum (excerpt)
"Prolific filmmaking country India has often caught the Forum's attention, whether through its "alternative cinema" or "Bollywood" musicals. This year's Indian films show that the antagonism between art and commerce is slowly dissolving. A new generation of Indians is starting to rediscover political and socially responsible filmmaking using the tools of popular cinema.
Of particular interest is Partho Sen Gupta's debut "Hava aney dey" (Let the Wind Blow), an apocalyptic film about the deceptively carefree attitudes of spoilt youngsters set against the backdrop of India's conflict with Pakistan.
