When a luxury liner is turned on its belly by a colossal rogue wave transforming its opulence into a horrifying watery grave on screen, you know you are hooked from start to finish. Movies OK showcases the story of Poseidon on 17th January 2016 at 8pm, a giant and elegant vessel unmercifully tipping the ship and leaving its survivors in an almost impossible attempt to navigate their way to safety through the treacherous interior of the stricken ship.

The movie is the third film adaptation of Paul Gallico's novel The Poseidon Adventure and marks the return of master storyteller Wolfgang Petersen (Das Boot, The Perfect Storm)to the sea. Touted as one of the best adventures of the last decade, Poseidon is best known for its vivid characters, convincing special effects and a tangible feel for the relentless sea. The film also shines in its action sequences, which are staged with a flair of originality, a genuine air of suspense and a mounting sense of menace. A movie that you definitely can't miss!

High hopes for ‘Satyamev Jayate 2’

With a tagline that reads: ‘Jinhe Desh Ki Fikar Hai’, season two promises hard-hitting content like before but the format will be different.

Star Plus' rejigged programming pays off

Gaurav Bannerjee, Head, Star Plus explains, “While it is true that the increase in ratings is a result of extendng the weekday strategy to Saturday, I also believe it is because of the stickiness of our content. Our weekday prime time has 11 shows out of which almost 5 to 6 are in the top ten every week. So our content, which we have worked very hard to suit the contemporary Indian woman across geographies, has found a hook with our audience."

The tussle over live cricket scores

Ajit Mohan, Head, New Media, Star India said, “Digital should be an incremental leap in the way people consume sports. But if you look at the current crop of digital sports service companies, it has been a huge regressive step backwards, because essentially you’re trying to describe a match through text commentary."
