Samsara DVD Launch

Sushmita salutes Pan Nalin Pan Nalin's Samsara hit Indian households with Sushmita Sen releasing the album at Guestline Days last evening. The actress admitted that when she had seen the film, what excited her most about the project was the fact that the director was Indian. Expressing her delight at the film finally seeing Indian shores after grossing 100 crore the world over, Sushmita held the audience enthralled with her words. Sushmita was at her suave best and was scintillatingly beautiful. She was in awe of Nalins Samsara and stated that it was truly a tribute to India. The first thing that I looked for was who did this film? Was he Indian? I was amazed at the quality of filmmaking. When quizzed about Rani Ki Jhansi , she stated that turning director for her was absolutely unintentional and that she would personally answer all queries the next time around. Sushmita also did mention a line or two on her upcoming Dulha Mil Gaya. Muddasar Aziz makes his debut as director with Dulha Mil Gaya. He is one of the most hardworking directors around and things will be smooth as soon as we get Shahrukhs dates. In fact, I have always made my career out of new directors so Im not worried. Well, looks like Sushmita is all positive; be it the controversy surrounding Shahrukhs dates or the progess of Rani Ki Jhansi.

Ronaldo focused on physiotherapy PARIS — Three-time former world footballer of the year Ronaldo has shelved thoughts about playing again and is focused on the lengthy and testing physiotherapy sessions needed to recuperate his injured left knee. The 31-year-old AC Milan striker underwent surgery at the Pitie-Salpetriere hospital in Paris last week on the tendon ruptured while playing for his club against Livorno in Serie A action. It was the latest in a series of knee injuries that have affected his glittering career, which has seen him established as top World Cup goal scorer. “My heart tells me to play again but my body is sending me signs of fatigue and suffering,” said Ronaldo, who was due to be released from hospital on Friday but will remain in Paris for two further weeks before returning to Milan. “It has been a real knock-out blow, both physically and mentally,” he admitted speaking in Portuguese and Italian, with Milan sports director Leonardo translating. “I still don’t know how it happened. I still mustn’t think about playing again. I must focus for the moment on undergoing the best physio possible. This will be very tough. “If I’m okay at the end of that, then of course I’ll play again. If there’s another ending, it will be a difficult and sad decision. I know exactly the bridges I have to cross. I have experience of recuperating from injury.” According to Professor Yves Catonne, head of orthopedic and sports surgery at the Pitie-Salpetriere hospital, Ronaldo will likely have to wait five to six months before jogging and eight months before touching a ball again. The surgeon who carried out the operation, Professor Eric Rolland, spelt out in detail what lies ahead for Ronaldo on the long road to full fitness. “He’s going to have to keep the protection on his right leg in place and walk with crutches for at least a month and a half to ensure the scar tissue is solid. “He’ll be able to put his foot on the ground but he’ll have to be careful not to make a sudden movement. “After that we can look at fitting something more flexible if his knee allows it. In terms of being able to run he won’t be able to do that for four and a half to five months.” Ronaldo, the all-time leading scorer in World Cup finals with 15 goals, ruptured his left knee tendon playing for Milan in a 1-1 Serie A draw against Livorno on February 13. “Anything can happen in the next three months because surgery is not an exact science. It will all depend on the rehabilitation,” Rolland said. “We’ll have a first check-up in three months and another in six months. From a medical point of view, we’ll stay cautious for six months,” he added. “The recovery will not depend on Ronaldo for the first six months. It will all depend on him afterwards. Psychologically, he is a remarkable man.” Ronaldo sustained two serious injuries to his right knee while playing for Inter Milan in 1999 and 2000 but recovered to help Brazil win the 2002 World Cup, scoring both goals in their 2-0 win over Germany in the final. He went on to play for Real Madrid before joining AC Milan in Jan. 2007. He hardly featured this season because of a series of injuries and the Champions League holders have yet to commit to a new contract. “The club will always be by his side,” Leonardo said. Ronaldo played down the issue, saying: “I don’t think it’s the right time to talk about a new contract.”

AC Milan's injured Ronaldo admits Flamengo hope Injured AC Milan striker Ronaldo admits he still has ambitions of playing for Flamengo as he recovers from knee surgery. He said: "We will see if I can make a full recovery. The great AC Milan is in pole position for how they've dealt with me, as I have an excellent relationship with the club and my teammates. So we will see. "It is my dream to play for Flamengo, which was my junior team but it depends on my recovery. It's first important to return to play and then decide where."

Button expects a better season for Honda TOKYO: Honda's British driver Jenson Button on Thursday predicted a better season following a disastrous last year for the under-achieving Formula One team. The struggling outfit late last year brought in Ross Brawn, a 10-year veteran of Ferrari, as its new team principal to work alongside CEO Nick Fry. Last year, Honda's best performance was Button's fifth place at the Chinese Grand Prix. “I must say I'm very happy with the way things are going. We are making improvements at every test in many, many areas,” Button told reporters in Tokyo ahead of the new season. “For me, I'm happy also because the car is a great driveable car. It's a car we can really build on, so going into 2008, I'm positive that we can have a good year. “I'm looking forward to 2008 and also the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne,” he said, referring to the season opener on March 16.
