How they won their cancer war

it's time for Barbara Mori and Lisa Ray to go real

The glam divas - both cancer survivors - will be seen in a docu- drama talking about their experiences of fighting the dreaded disease and coming out as winners.

Titled 1- a- Minute , the docufilm on breast cancer is directed by actor Namrata Singh Gujral. It is scheduled for an October release. 1- a- Minute also features other cancer survivors such as Grammy Award winning singeractress Olivia Newton- John, Jaclyn Smith of Charlie's Angels fame, Melissa Etheridge of An Inconvenient Truth fame and veteran Indian actress Mumtaz.

Priya Dutt, whose mother Nargis died of cancer, will also be a part of the film. American actor Kelly McGillis ( of Top Gun fame) will be the narrator. " Both Lisa and Barbara happily agreed to be a part of the documentary because they have gone through the experience themselves. They were very touched by the film," an industry insider said.

Lisa has gone through stem cell surgery after being diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma. Mori was diagnosed with early stage cancer, but is now cured. Barbara said the docu- film was inspirational and she was glad that she was approached to be a part of the project. The Mexican star, who has been making news in India because of the Hrithik Roshan starrer Kites , added that her " dream is to see a cancer- free world and I will do my best to support as many programmes as possible to tackle cancer". 1- a- Minute is being made to raise funds for a cure, promote awareness and prevention, as well as support survivors of women's cancers.

The film follows a woman's journey through cancer with a focus on breast cancer. At each stage of her journey, the stars ( survivors from around the world, or affected closely by it), jump in and recount their experiences.

Barbara gelled a lot with Kites director Anurag Basu as he too has been a cancer survivor. In fact, cancer became the common bonding ground between Mori and Basu as they shot for the film in Mexico and India. Basu was diagnosed with acute leukaemia while making Tumsa Nahin Dekha . Lisa, on her part, is now gearing up for her acting career again after beating cancer. The Canada- based actress has said she would divide her time between Toronto and Mumbai.

Besides acting, she is also trying a new career - writing. Lisa has also been going all out to raise awareness about multiple myeloma. A part of the proceeds from her film, Cooking with Stella , went to the Los Angeles based Institute for Myeloma and Bone Cancer Research.

Sabotage may have caused train derailment: Railways

New Delhi, May 28 (IANS) The Indian Railways said sabotage by suspected Maoist guerrillas may have caused the train derailment in West Bengal that left 20 people dead and over 100 injured early Friday.

'We suspect it is a case of sabotage. The driver (of the passenger train) has reported to have heard a large sound. There was definite tinkering with the tracks,' member railway board Vivek Sahai told reporters here.

The engine and 13 coaches of a Mumbai-bound passenger train derailed and were hit by a speeding goods train in West Bengal early Friday.

Sahai said 20 passengers were dead and 104 injured.

He said Maoists were observing black week since past midnight. 'We had issued a red alert,' he said.

Sahai said the deaths were mainly caused by the goods train hitting the three derailed coachs of the Howrah-Kurla Gyaneshwari Super Deluxe Express.

'There have been earlier cases of sabotage but never of this scale,' the railway board member said.
