•mber. 1949 FILMIMD1A Dev Anand leads the show in "Afsar'\ a social picture of Nav Ketan. would not affect films censored before October 31, 1949. Only the Madras Government are still holding on to their miles of footage. . MAX FACTOR BLUSH! London, October 17. Hollywood star Joan Fontaine had a bad experience recently when she flew from Paris to London. At the Paris airport, she left her entire make-up case. This upset her and she refused to give interviews to anyone till she got back her makeup case. Joan is wise and she knows the press value of the Max Factor blush. CULTURE ON FEET Calcutta, October 26. Well-known dancer Uday Shankar, at a Rotary meeting held on Tuesday 25th October in the Calcutta Rotary Club, spoke on "the world through the eye of an artist". He said, "If we have a centre, a very big centre where artists can be trained and sent to Europe for propagating the art and culture of India, it will be very much useful". Perhaps it is with this intention of carrying India's message of art and culture, Uday Shankar is planning a series of shows in New York assisted by his talented wife Amla Devi and some other dancers. This is his sixth professional trip abroad. Let us hope Shankar brings home some dollars from the Yankeeland. WHAT LUCK! Cawnpore, November 10. A cinema house in Cawnpore was gutted by fire on Tuesday the 8th November. The loss to the cinema owner is estimated at Rs. 10,000. To the filmgoers it means one less rotten cinema house.
