MUMBAI: To push its upcoming animation film ?Turbo? DreamWorks Animation has launched a Turbo Racing League App and the one million dollars Shell-Out contest presented by Verizon.

The game which is inspired by the film which is about a snail, who gains super-speed, will feature the first contest of its kind to shell-out one million dollars in total cash prizes.

The App from DreamWorks Animation and PikPok features racing and is available on iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Android handsets and tablets, and Windows Phone 8. Players can rocket to the finish line like shell on wheels as they drift around corners, perform crazy stunts, collect tomatoes and grind rails to earn performance upgrades and improve their race times. The game is available on all mobile carriers; however, fans who play the game on a Verizon device will have access to exclusive content from the film as well as game customisation options and insider tips and tricks on game play.

DreamWorks Animation head of global interactive Chris Hewish said, "Turbo Racing League perfectly captures the high-octane excitement of the film, and players of all skill levels will love the detail and depth that went into creating this addictive racing game. The basic game play is easy enough for everyone to enjoy, but the added complexities of the advanced maneuvers and the $1,000,000 Shell-Out will have racers vying for a lot more than bragging rights!"

To compete for real cash prizes in the $1,000,000 Shell-Out presented by Verizon, eligible players must achieve Daily Goals or obtain sufficient tomatoes throughout the game to unlock access into the weekly contest. Once in the race, players can show off their driving skills on specific contest race tracks during an eight week qualifying period of weekly Preliminary Races until 7 July 2013. Each week, the ten fastest racers will win cash prizes up to $25,000.

Each of the eight weekly first place finishers will earn an invitation to the Grand Finale Race Event in Los Angeles to compete against each other for the chance to earn the title of Turbo Racing League Champion and the Grand Prize of $250,000! The final race will be held in Los Angeles on 17 July 2013, in conjunction with the theatrical premiere of ?Turbo?.

MUMBAI : Jeremy Wade, biologist and fishing detective, has spent twenty-five years exploring our planet?s remotest rivers and lakes, hunting for monster-sized fish. It has become an obsession for him-and for his millions of viewers. Animal Planet?s wildly popular television series RIVER MONSTERS goes where no wildlife program has gone before, revealing the creatures that lurk in the murky depths of inland waterways. Now this summer, Jeremy Wade returns for more dangerous mystery and freshwater sleuthing in new episodes of RIVER MONSTERS. This one will prove to be the most exotic and bizarre yet.

Animal Planet?s top-performing series returns with brand-new episodes beginning 27th May, every night at 8 pm, as biologist and extreme angler Wade travels worldwide to solve freshwater fish tales and lures in watery culprits that allegedly attack mankind. This season, Jeremy finds himself in places he?s never explored as he travels to the far reaches of the globe - from serpentine underwater caves to remote rivers filled with freshwater crocodiles. Jeremy searches for the giant cousin of the piranha that - with its gnarly teeth and gnawing jaws - has turned from vegetarian to meat eater, with a particular interest in male genitalia.

Follow Jeremy to Thailand where the adventurous angler goes in search of what is thought to be the largest freshwater fish - the giant freshwater stingray. Also known locally as the "wish-you-were-dead" fish, this UFO-shaped marine monstrosity is said to measure about 16-feet long and seven-feet across and is approximately 1,300 pounds; but what could really kill is its 18-inch barbed, bayonet-like tail that could whip extremely painful venom through an unfortunate passerby. But even that is not going to stop Jeremy from tracking down this mysterious monster. Jeremy?s adventures take him all over the world to solve freshwater fish mysteries in locations such as Congo, South Africa, Uganda, Ethiopia, Alaska, and Florida.

"This season, I get into even more unfamiliar territory," notes Jeremy Wade. "The destinations are diverse, the stories strange, and the fish every bit as fearsome but in unexpected ways. I encountered fish with invisible powers, others that live to a century, the largest true freshwater fish so far and the longest struggle I?ve had with a live fish to date."

With new episodes of River Monsters, viewers can expect to be reeled in as Jeremy discovers a freshwater fish that can grow as long as a whale, a species of shark that lives in freshwater 100 miles from the sea, and a fish with teeth as big as a lion?s as well as other creatures and moments captured on film for the first time. Pushing his mental and physical limits to the maximum, join the extreme fisherman as he attempts to capture these amazing creatures and tell their tales. Plunge into the exciting new season of RIVER MONSTERS as it returns to Animal Planet.

NEW DELHII : Directors Anurag Kashyap and Dibakar Banerjee were the latest opinion leaders to be featured on Express Adda. While it took the industry a while to embrace them and their work, they are now heralded as the men in-charge of a cinematic revolution in the country. They entered Bollywood as rebellious boys with a cinematic vision that was gritty, edgy and realistic - far away from snow-capped foreign locales and chiffon-clad leading ladies.

Express Adda, an Indian Express platform for interactive debates with global thought leaders, key decision-makers, strategists and newsmakers has been managed by VibgyorBrand Services for several years now. The exchange is meant to be freewheeling but also intense and focused on contemporary issues, an interesting mix of cocktails and conversations.

In this recent edition of Express Adda, Dibakar Bannerjee and Anurag Kashyap interacted with a select audience about the many hues ofthe complex picture that is today‘s India and how these tones reflect off their cinematic canvases. Speaking at the event, Anurag Kashyap said: "The problem is not with the members of the Censor Board, the problem is with the country. We are so hypersensitive and the government has decided to entertain everything and everybody. It frustrates me that I can watch a film like Death of a President in a hall in the US, which is a fictional story about the death of George W Bush."

Agreeing with him, Dibakar Banerjee added: "The Censor Board is only following a template. It‘s the various political lobbies that create the problems. The real animal is the Cinematograph Act." The discussion was moderated by Indian Express Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta.

Some of the other recent Adda events have featured ace badminton player Saina Nehwal , World chess champion Viswanathan Anand, J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and actor Aamir Khan among others. Commenting on the platform, Protyush Hazarika of Vibgyor Brand Services said, "Vibgyor has been managing Adda sessions for a long time now and the underlying theme of interactive discussions on topical issues designed to inspire change have us completely involved and excited. We look forward to a continued long-standing association with Adda."
