Hong Kong police have ended their blockade of a university campus after surrounding it for 12 days to try to arrest anti-government protesters holed up inside.

Protesters have since expanded their demands to include fully democratic elections and an investigation into police use of tear gas, rubber bullets and other force to suppress the demonstrations. Police have arrested 5,890 people since June, ranging in age from 11 to 83.

He does his job of a soft-natured, mild-mannered good boy role quite well. Aditi Prabhudeva has the knack of getting into the skin of any character. The detailing given to the supporting characters is what makes them believable and gives the story a touch of reality. They are probably inspired from real characters and their mannerisms.
