HAPPY NEW YEAR (Movie)
The movie didn't get released on January 1st nor is slated for a release on 31st December; however Farah Khan’s Happy New Year is likely to make your day into one big happy New Year since it has everything you want to have in a film. As expected Farah Khan mixes plots of multiple Bollywood and a few Hollywood films together puts them in a jar adds her choreographic magic you get a movie that has dance action romance and above all, a plot divide of logic but with the ability to keep you hooked till the last minute. Charlie (Shah Rukh Khan) is a street fighter who wants to take revenge from Charan Grover (Jaickie Sherof) who was responsible for sending his father (Anupam Kher) to prison. In order to do the trick he needs to find a team of experts and in Oceans X1 style he gets his team in the first half of the movie. By the time the movie reaches the interval he had managed to train his bunch of idiots for the world Dance competition and got them selected for the championship , which was to be held at the same place where the biggest diamond s of all were being kept under lock and key.

What makes the movie watchable are the characters and the dialogues while Nandu (Abhishek Bachan) is a sadak chaap bewra on one hand who can vomit at will, he is also the look like of Vick, the son of Charan Grover hence pivotal to the plan. Tammy (Boman Irani) is an expert locksmith but he suffer from epileptic fits Jag (Sonu Sood) is the muscle man with one ear Rohan (Vivaan Shah) is his nephew who is uncool with girls but supercool with gadget and finally, there is Mohini (Deepika Padukone) who is their dance instructor and joins them very late in their plans. Together they dance when they have to plan a heist when they are not dancing and are well knit like a family who live together. Their plan is perfect on paper only. Thing go haywire as first the leader Charlie gets into a fight with a rival dance team captain they lose the custody of the room that should be their base for the operation their perfect planning flaws and above all the judges can’t be bought. To find out whether they gang manages to take revenge or not  all you have to do is watch Happy New Year   and be in awe of Shah Rukh Khan’s six packs, Sonu Sood’s Mis-listening of words, Abhishek’s antics and Deepika’s ability to drop in at the wrong time. Despite its stupidity time the references to SRK movies like Main Hoon Na Chak De India the song Manwa Laagy, India Walay and the story will keep you glued to your seats for the entire run. The cast also manages to surprise you with their dance steps because one was not expecting Boman Irani to dance like a young man which he does and does well.

WILL Under Shia Law

WILL Under Shia Law:

A testator may leave a legacy to an heir so long as it does not exceed 1/3rd of his estate. however if legacy to an to an heir exceeds 1/3rd, it is not valid unless the other heirs consent thereto.

If the bequest exceeds 1/3rd then on refusal of consent,it stands abated. As a norm, on refusal of consent, legal heirs will receive their respective shares in the deceased estate in designated proportions specified under the Mohammedan law of inheritance.

Where bequest is made of the entire property to one heir to the exclusion of the other heirs, the will be read as if it did not contain any disposition of the property.

A testator bequeath up to 1/3rd of his estate to a stranger and the same shall be valid without the consent of his legal heirs.
However a bequest in excess of 1/3rd may be validated by consent of the legal heirs.

A bequest for a pious or charitable purpose can only be made to the extent of the bequeathable 1/3rd , provided of course that the legal heirs of the testator consent otherwise.

Administrative Details
If bequest of corpus of any property is made subject  the to a condition derogating from completeness of the bequest, e.g. that the legatee shall not alienate the property bequeathed, such conditions is void and the legatee will get property as if no conditions were attached to it.

A will may be altered or revoked by the testator in his lifetime.

WILL (WASIYAT)

What is a Will?

“It is the legal declaration of the intention of a testator with respect to his property which he desire to be carried into effect after his death”

Who can make a Will?
Every Muslim of sound mind and not a minor may take a will to dispose off his property. Age of majority for the purposes of will is 18 years. In case of minor, of whose person and property, a guardian has been appointed by Court of Wards, the age of majority is deemed to be 21 years.

Under Shia Law, a will made by a person after he has done something towards commission of suicide, such as taking poison etc, is not valid.

Is there a prescribed form for Wills?
Mohammedan Law does not have any prescribed form for a Will and such is not any legal                   formalities.
It need not be in written nor it need be registered or attested.
Even an oral will is perfectly valid.

However, the testator’s intentions with respect to his property which he desires to be carried out after his death, in whatever form they are declared, must be with sufficient clarity so as to be capable of being clearly ascertained.
Therefore, a will may be made in any manner whatsoever, provided it shows a clear intention to make it (whether such on acceptance is expressed orally or in writing) and shall take effect on acceptance, expressly or impliedly, by the legatee after the testator’s death.

What can be subject of a will?
A will may be in respect of:
Any property or right which is capable of being transferred and is in existence at the time of                 testator’s death.
Any benefit or right in such property for either a limited period or for the lifetime of the legatee.

Who can be a Legatee?

A Will can be made for the benefit of any person or institution in existence at the time of the               testator’s death.
Invalid for an unborn child but valid for one who is in womb and is born within six months of             the date of the will.

When does a Will become effective?

A will becomes effective and title to the property bequeathed is completed only with the legatee’s acceptance, express or implied, after the death of the testator.

Are there any testamentary limits?

Two-fold limitations are placed by Mohammedan Law on the power to make a will:
Restrictions as to person to whom bequest may be made
Restriction as to property of which bequest may be made
Therefore, a Mohammedan cannot, by will, dispose of more than 1/3rd of the surplus of his estate after payment of funeral expenses and debts. Under Shia Law is continued……tomorrow

Mediation 

What is mediation?

Mediation is a flexible process, conducted confidentially in which a neutral persons actively assist the parties in working towards a negotiated agreement, with the parties in ultimate control of the decision to settle the dispute.
The mediation has no power to impose a settlement on the parties, who retain authority for making their own decision. The mediator is therefore responsible for the conduct of the process-while the parties control the outcome.

Difference between Mediation and Arbitration


Arbitration is a process by which a neutral third party or panel considers evidence presented by the parties and makes a decision which is binding on the parties according to rule, or prior agreement of the parties.

The Arbitrators are required to give an award within a time frame decided by the parties
The Arbitrators ward has to be registered in the court of law and is binding on the parties.
Mediation on the other hand, is a voluntary and flexible process where a neutral third person assist confidentially the parties towards a negotiated agreement, with parties in ultimate control of the process in reaching on a decision of their own where both the parties are in win-win situation with or without a financial cost.

The Aga Khan Shia Imami Ismaili Conciliation and Arbitration Board all over the world prefer to adopt Conciliation through Mediation for resolution of conflicts within the Jama’ati members.


Alternate Dispute Resolution
(ADR)

Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR), although considered generally to be a new concept has its roots in old customs and practices. Even at present in many societies, in the absence of State Law customary enforced by council of elder govern aspects of individuals behavior and social interaction unwritten, it represents day to day practice of the people concerned and settlement of disputes by elders.

In the indo-Pak subcontinent, Alternative Dispute Resolution, is in fact centuries old and is known as the punchayiat or Jirga system in rural areas.
All disputes are brought before a committee of respectable and honourable elders, who whose decision is accepted by the parties and no party can usually afford to disagree with the decision because of social rejection by the society. Through this informal activity of justice, dispute resolution has been going on throughout Pakistan alongside the formal administration of justice through courts. Whenever an offence takes place or a dispute arises the local elders who command influence and credibility, gather and enter into intensive negotiations with the parties or amicable resolution of the conflicts. The focus is mostly on repairing the damage done and restoring relationships, personal and commercial, to their original state as far as possible.

They deal with a range of issues including conflicting claims to land and water, inheritance, alleged breaches of the honour code and intra-tribal or inter-tribal killings.
Alternate Dispute Resolution can be termed to be a rising trend of this century as it means finding domestically and internationally a quicker inexpensive and more effective system alternate to litigation which is time consuming and expensive ADR is generally classified into at least four subtypes: Negotiation, Mediation, Collaborative Law and Arbitration.

Mediation is one of the best alternates that has been in practice in the Islamic history and in Ismaili tradition for centuries. Mediation is in fact the most effective, low cost, efficient and dignified way of resolving disputes.

The mediation process is introduced by Aga Khan Development Network in 11 countries in the world and in the ismaili sect is practicing in the Northern Areas Pakistan also.
