Kaushik told me it's good to have sex: Ranjitha

Coach Kaushik told me it`s good to have sex: Ranjitha

For the first time, Indian Hockey player TS Ranjitha goes public with her account of the way she was sexually harassed by coach MK Kaushik. Ranjitha’s latest exposition has sent shock waves across the nation, and has brought to light the dirty side of Indian Women’s hockey.

Kaushik has constantly been claiming his innocence over the sex scandal and has resigned from the position after an anonymous letter to the sports ministry reported his alleged misbehaviour.

Excerpts from Ranjitha`s statement to Times Now:

One day during the camp in Bhopal, Kaushik sir called me to his room and asked me whether I have had sex. I was quiet for a while, then he said it`s good to have sex. Then I told my senior that Kaushik sir spoke to me in a disgusting manner. Still I remained quiet.”

Kaushik sir used to have one-on-one meetings with everybody for 10-15 minutes, but with me he used to always take an hour. He used to repeatedly say that I am beautiful. Can I talk to you whenever I feel like? And this kind of a conversation used to take place very often.”

One day it just went out of limit. During our tour to China one night, he called me to his room and started talking about my game. Soon he started talking about all sorts of things. He said you are pretty, you stay in Mumbai alone, you must be having a lot of fun. He even said that he was available 24 hours for me. He did not say it once or twice, he repeated it at least 5 times and that too pointing at the bed.”

I always thought he would stop on his own. I kept forgiving him. He was about to go to Germany, and he asked me tell me if you want something from there. He even offered me something another team member had asked for, saying that if I wanted it I should meet him the next day....”

Meanwhile, there are reports that former hockey player Mir Ranjan Negi is likely to coach the Women’s Indian hockey team.

Life Today: Signs of a perfect sex partner

signs of a perfect sex partner
The kind of partner a person has makes a huge difference in the sex life. It allows them concentrate more on the act, instead of thinking too much about whether they`re making love to the right person or not. When it comes to a perfect sex partner, attributes like height, weight, age, behaviour, choices etc take a backseat. What matters is that he/she suits you and shares an amazing chemistry in the bedroom.
Though it might be hard to find an absolute sexually compatible partner, but most couples don`t even know the traits that they or their better half should posses to be a perfect sex partner. Having an outstanding sex partner takes a huge burden off an individual`s mind.
Dr. Kirti Mishra, a clinical physiologist and a relationship expert elucidates, "The idea of a perfect sex partner varies for different individuals, but some common traits like sexually active, experimental in bed, hygienically sound etc are a must, as they are the key for finding sexual ecstasy. Most couples today are working on their personal attributes to match theirpartner`s prerequisites and thus become a perfect sex partner." Apart from good looks, a hot body and a thrilling sex drive, let`s explore the less superficial elements of what makes a perfect sex partner. And if your partner bears these qualities in bed, you can unquestionably boast of having a great sex partner.
1. Hygiene holds the key
Everyone likes making love to a clean and tidy partner, so good hygiene holds great importance in a sexual relationship. Ensure that your partner is well manicured with a fully waxed body to ensure a higher comfort level. Too much hair on body makes it uncomfortable to enjoy each inch of your lover. So look out for a soft and clean skin in yourpartner complemented with a nice smell, as a bad body odour is a huge turn-off.
2. Oral sex shouldn`t be an issue
You know what pleases you, so a wonderful partner to have in bed is one who doesn`t hesitate going out of the way to give you that pleasure. If not routinely, your partner should be ready to please you orally as per their own mood and comfort level.
Hot tip: "Don`t wait for your partner to tell you or give hints each time they feel like experiencing oral pleasure, instead make it a part of the love making act. It is quite safe and enjoyable as the actual act, so don`t be unwilling to go for it," states Dr. Deepak Gupta, a sex expert.

Legendary Manoj Kumar turns 73

Legendary Manoj Kumar turns 73Veteran Bollywood actor and cynosure of all eyes Manoj Kumar popularly known as Mr Bharat blows his 73 candles. This man brought out patriotism in all his fans and followers. Indeed his era in films was of jingoism.

This very down to earth person entitled his gaudiness and persona and showed the Indian cinema the true colours of Nationalism.

As a youth, he admired Bollywood superstar Dilip Kumar, and decided to name himself Manoj Kumar after Dilip's character in Shabnam (1949).

After making a little-noticed début in Fashion in 1957, Manoj landed his first leading role in Kaanch Ki Gudia (1960) opposite Sayeeda Khan. Piya Milan Ki Aas and Reshmi Roomal followed, setting the stage for the Vijay Bhatt-directed Hariyali Aur Raasta (1962) opposite Mala Sinha. Kumar then appeared with Sadhana in Raj Khosla's Woh Kaun Thi (1964), and reunited with Vijay Bhatt and Mala Sinha in Himalaya Ki God Mein (1965).

Manoj Kumar’s image as the patriotic hero started with the 1965 film Shaheed, based on the life of Bhagat Singh, a martyr in the struggle for India's freedom. After the Indo-Pak War of 1965, Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri asked him to create a film based on the popular slogan Jai Jawan Jai Kissan.

The result was Kumar's magnum opus and his directorial debut, Upkaar (1967). In it, he played both a soldier and a farmer. The film was also noted for the famous song Mere Desh Ki Dharti, written by Gulshan Bawra, composed by Kalyanji-Anandji and sung by Mahendra Kapoor. Upkaar was a hit and won Kumar his first Filmfare Best Director Award.

In his later years of life Manoj Kumar tried hand at politics but didn’t work. He also got into some controversies with Shahrukh on his movie Om shanti Om on some moral issues. Manoj Kumar is a name that itself spells patriotism.

We all wish this inimitable person goodness and well being in his life!

Aamir not in the race to become highest tax payer

The biggest star of Hindi cinema Bollywood Aamir Khan is not keen to become the highest tax payer of Bollywood. “That is not my goal. Whatever I earn, I pay my tax. If I would be in the race to be top tax payer, then I will make different kind of films. I will have to change my thinking as well,” Aamir Khan said firmly, while talking on wide ranging subjects to Anurradha Prasad for her popular show `Aamne -Sammne` to be aired on News 24 channel.

In a same vain, Aamir Khan has also ruled out the possibility of making his Aamir Khan Production in to a corporate entity. In a direct question, `Would he like to turn his company in to a corporate entity,? The actor,producer,director and model informs, “While his friends suggest him that i can earn thousand crore if i go public. But, I do not think on such lines.”

`Why not considering the fact that your company is producing very successful films`? Politely but firmly, Aamir Khan said, “ I am a creative person. Our films Laagan. Tare Zameen par and Jaane tu... were very successful. I hope now Peepli would also do well. But, I am not a businessman. If I were a businessman I would perhaps have not made all these films.”

Discussing about the song `mahngai dayan khaye jaat hai..` from his forthcoming film `Peepli live` that has become swan song of opposition parties,Aamir Khan modestly said, “It is a sheer chance that this particular song has come when the issue of price rise is making waves. Though, the film is not on inflation. It is all about the issues and struggles of rural India.”

Continuing with Peepli Live and the Bollywood buzz that it is inspired with great film of 70s Jaane bhi do yaaro, the quintessential super star made records straight once and for all that `Peepli Live` is not at all inspired by Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro. Unlike the farcical humor of Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, Peepli... has a very realistic humor. Moreover, it depicts the lively life of villages too.”

`Mehngai dayan kaye jaat hai... is very bitter attack on the system`? The temperamental star admitted very candidly, “ the choice of song was not his. It was sung by the local people of that village. They have not made the song for the film. Ansuha ( director of Peepli live) heard the song while doing shooting. She included it in the film.”

Price rise of essential commodities in the recent times seems to be in mind of Aamir Khan as well. Said Aamir, “ I have been listening about price rise for the last 30 years. I do not think any government has ever controlled it. Though they make effort to control it.” Does he think that governments do not give much attention to control price rise ? In a very honest confession, he said, “ I can not speak on this matter as I am not competent enough. I am sure the mandarins of planning commission and other economists would be trying hard to deal with the issue.”

In a related question, Aamir Khan bluntly said that there is no question of giving copyright of the Mehangai dayan... to any party. He,however, made it clear that he was not aware of the fact as to which political outfit asked for the copyright of the song, though there were some requests.”With all the force arguably the tallest star of Hindi cinema demolished the myth of star power inBollywood. Aamir Khan was of the opinion that stars can give good opening to any film, but at the end of the day bad film would fall flat even if you put many stars in it.

`What next for you, Aamir`? With little pause,the star said, “ I do not plan anything for future. Currently, I am thinking only about Peepli, then Dhobi Ghat and then a film featuring Imran.”

Controversies has become middle name of Aamir Khan? “ I always run away from controversies. If you are a star, some people would like to be very close to you. They create controversies. Controversies definitely affects me. But to move away from it, I then stop watching TV and scanning newspapers,” informs Aamir.

Aamir Khan refused to divulage the reasons for his spat with Javad Akhtar on the issue copyright. He only said, “ I have great respect for him. Iwould not discuss the matter in public.” Any plans to work with Karan Johar ? “No at the moment. Though we are very close,” he said.

Has failure greatly affect him? “Of course, it does. I feel really bad. But, i feel that there must be something wrong in the making of the film,” Aamir Khan concludes.
