As India celebrates World Wildlife week, starting 1^st October, musician Raghu Dixit of The Raghu Dixit Project, has spoken out against the practise of using animals in circuses. "If you want entertainment, just call Raghu Dixit. Don't go to zoo’s and circuses and see animals in trauma", says Dixit.

Superhero film ‘Krrish 3’ is the first Indian film to launch Facebook stickers to publicise the movie

 If you are a fan of home grown superhero flicks, then Krrish 3 has come up with an interesting way to express your love for the franchise. The makers of Krrish 3 have launched a collection of Facebook Stickers, a special set of emoticons for the movie. This is in line with similar promotional campaigns done for the ‘Minions’ from Despicable Me 2 and ‘Snoopy’ from Peanuts.

The Krrish 3 stickers include common expressions and activities people use every day like happy, sad, drinking coffee, working late or partying with friends. Each emotion has been created with one of the 3 central characters Krrish (Hrithik Roshan), Kaya (Kangana Ranaut) and Kaal (Vivek Oberoi). The emoticons also include special phrases like ‘I Love You’, ‘Call Me’ and the ‘Krrish- The Protector ‘sticker.


Krrish 3 is due for release November 3rd
