Kaho Na Pyar Hai made Babul Supriyo a star. But unfortunately,even after a decade,the blockbuster remains the singers tenuous link to Bollywood stardom. Of late,Babul Supriyo,,however,has been taking keen interest in sports. After the FIFA international friendly between Argentina and Venezuela at the Salt Lake Stadium in September,he was seen shooting questions to Argentine coach Alejandro Sabella in the post match media conference. Now,the singer has decided to play first division cricket. Babul Surpiyo signed up for Town Club last week with an intention to play the CAB League. Hows that for a career shift!

CMs ghugni vs CPMs muri

Ghugni and muri are two favourite Bengali snacks that became the latest weapons in the Trinamool vs CPMs game for one-upmanship. It started with chief minister serving all mediapersons,who visited her chamber in the Assembly,with ghugni. Not willing to lag behind,the very next day Leader of Opposition Surya Kanta Mishra told while wrapping up a press conference: We get to know everything. We know that you were treated with ghugni. Today you come to my room and I will treat you with muri.

Tale of 2 Subratas

Is minister for public health engineering Subrata Mukherjee the new rising star in Mamatas cabinet? Rumours have it that very important portfolios like PWD and transport that were earlier held by Subrata Bakshi Bakshi is now an MP after he won from the Lok Sabha seat vacated by Mamata could be allotted to Mukherjee. With the CM already holding very significant departments like land and land reforms,health and home affairs,she would not prefer to burden herself more. The way Mukherjee was given the job of handling parliamentary affairs when Partha Chatterjee fell ill indicated that he was being given much more importance by the CM. He was also seen handling the opposition attack and media in the wake of hooch tragedy. Mukherjee was a former minister in Siddhartha Shankar Ray cabinet and also former Mayor of Kolkata.

On CMs speed dial

Partha Chatterjee,it seems,has become Man Friday of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. That the commerce and industry minister is the CMs most trusted lieutenant and able trouble shooter was evident last week when during a commotion at the Assembly on the issue of the hooch tragedy,Chatterjee had to leave an interactive session with industrialists to go for Mamatas rescue. Chatterjee was about to begin his speech to the business leaders at a five-star hotel when he received a call from the chief minister. He immediately wrapped up his speech and said: There is this urgent call from madam (Mamata) and I will have to rush back. He then immediately left to meet CM.
