Rock veterans Indus Creed, Pentagram and Parikrama to perform at Independence Rock

Independence Rock, also referred to as the Woodstock of India, is making a belated comeback to the city. The three-decade-old festival will take place in November and feature 10 established and up-and-coming acts, including the legendary groups Indus Creed, Pentagram, and Parikrama. On November 5 and 6, a two-day concert will be held at Bayview Lawns in Mazgaon.

The festival began in 1986 nearly as an act of retaliation for being denied the opportunity to perform at the St. Xavier’s campus festival Malhar. Farhad Wadia, a devoted fan of rock and roll, built the venue, which later developed into a Mecca for music lovers in the city. He explains, “I moved to the US eight years ago, so I couldn’t do this every year.

But I’ve always wanted to return and do this every year. I’m happy that the magic of this festival will be experienced by a new generation of festival-goers.

“We love playing big rock songs to those that dig that kind of sound,” Indus Creed frontman Uday Benegal explains. We started making music for that reason, and we still do.

The occasion serves as a sort of homecoming for Parikrama and its founder Subir Malik. When asked if today’s kids can relate to their music, he replies, “We have performed all over the world. The smaller children are headbanging to our music in the front rows, says the 52-year-old.

“The festival has always been the breeding ground for truly independent music in India and I hope it regains its status as India’s crucible of new sounds,” says composer-singer Vishal Dadlani, who is also the main singer for the band Pentagram.

Newer bands like Aswekeepsearching, The Bloodywood, and Parvaaz, among others, will also be making their festival debuts alongside these mainstays. The band Aswekeepsearching is thrilled to play on these revered grounds and remarks, “When we were growing up, Independence Rock was thought of as the biggest stage for independent bands and performers. The roots of today’s independent music scene were laid by this music event. We’re honoured to take part in it.

Calling Ben Affleck “Our Hero” on Father’s Day, Jennifer Lopez refutes rumours that he is “giving up” on his problematic marriage.

Are Bennfier 2.0 and I reconciling? Only a few days after rumours that Jennifer Lopez had abandoned her husband started to circulate, a charming social media message has taken the internet by surprise. J. Lo appeared to blow off all the divorce whispers on Father’s Day by openly praising her husband Ben Affleck. She called Affleck “our hero,” sharing a black-and-white image that left everyone wondering if the Bennifer romance will resume.

Jennifer Lopez happy Father’s Day to Ben Affleck.
Ben Affleck, who is renowned for being an excellent co-parent, received a surprise on social media on Father’s Day from his spouse. A lovely comment and a white heart emoji accompanied the vintage photo of Ben wearing a black leather jacket that J.Lo found and shared on her Instagram Story, reading, “Our Hero..Happy Father’s Day.” The pair has been living apart in separate homes at the time of this touching message, which has led to suspicions of a divorce and marital discord.

The unique homage was given just one day after the star of Accountant 2 was photographed heading back on Sunday, maybe following a meeting with J.Lo at their LA home. After that, his ex-wife Jennifer Garner—who has been trying to keep the marriage afloat—was spotted at his Brentwood rental home. It’s unknown if the three met, but hours later, the Jenny from the Block singer also paid Affleck a visit. Lopez didn’t spend much time there.

Children of Jen and Ben: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, are the three children that Ben co-parents with Garner and his wife, Lopez, but the Hollywood A-list pair does not have any children together. In addition, Lopez’s twins, who are 16 years old, have him as their stepfather. 

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s “divorce drama”
There have been rumours for months that the couple went through a “rough patch,” and that the stars decided to live apart as their $60 million shared home in Beverly Hills was put back up for sale on real estate websites. According to a number of stories, JLO has been making efforts to keep her marriage to Affleck intact. But last week, the Daily Mail was informed by a source that Jenny had had enough, saying that despite her best efforts, she was at her limit. The statement “It’s not getting better; it’s getting worse” highlights Lopez’s decision to dissolve their “troubled” union in the event that things don’t improve quickly.
