Star & Style - August 12 by The Asian Star Newspaper

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt call off their divorce? Here’s a new twist in the Angelina Jolie – Brad Pitt divorce proceedings. They might reconcile! A report on Entertainment Weekly confirms that their divorce has been put on hold as neither parties are working on it. Perhaps it’s their relationship that the couple might be working on? Said a source, “It’s true that the divorce is not moving forward right now. They

are taking a breather and seeing what happens.” Another insider has claimed

that the couple want to be completely sure they make the right decision, hence the divorce is put to halt. “They don’t take divorce lightly and want to make sure they are doing the right thing,” says a source. On the same, a source further added, “A lot has changed since Angelina filed.” Turns out the actress is considering going back to her husband who has changed quite a lot since the proceedings begun. His sobriety has has really managed to change Angelina’s mind. “Brad has been working on self-improvements,” says a close friend. So will there be an official announcement confirming the couple to try and work their marriage? Well, we will have to wait and watch out. But a source assures, “Things can change quickly, but they aren’t pursuing the divorce at this time.” Now that’s such a good news!

I joined The Kapil Sharma Show to help my brother Kapil Gone are the days when you saw Bharti Singh perform on the stage for a panel of judges sitting across. Now the comedienne will be judging contestants on her upcoming show, Comedy Dangal, with music director Anu Malik. We spoke to Bharti Singh exclusively about her new venture, her stint on The Kapil Sharma Show, the aversion it caused between Krushna and her and a bit about her love life. I was super happy. I thought finally I will get a chance to take others’ case. But when I heard that I have to judge artistes who are already so established, it made me feel extremely nervous. Taking a decision is always a tough task, no matter what the show is.

I & B Minister Smriti Irani Swings Into Action Against Pehredaar Piya Ki Sony’s controversial offering Pehredaar Piya Ki, which brings to the audience the atrocious story of a 9-year-old boy (Afaan Khan) getting married to an 18-year-old girl (Tejaswi, is finally and truly at the receiving end. The recent episodes that highlighted the suhaag raat and how the young kid enjoys filling his wife’s forehead with sindoor have shocked the nation no end. The cringe-worthy scenes caused a public outcry and a petition was filed against Pehredaar Kiya Ki demanding a ban on the show. Addressed to the I & B Minister Smriti Irani (who is also Minister for Textlies) , the petition filed by a certain Mansi Ja, states, “Pehredar Piya Ki. A 10-yearold impressionable little kid(“piyaa”) caressing and stalking a lady who’s more

than double his age and filling sindoor in her “maang” is being telecast at prime time 8:30pm on Sony. (Family time) It is to be devoured by the entire Nation.

Imagine the kind of influence it will steadily and perpetually infuse in the viewers mindset. We want a ban on the serial. We do not want our kids to be influenced by such TV serials. Join us in signing the petition to ban this serial.”

A butt naked Esha Gupta posts another sultry pic and asks – Why stop now? And she just doesn’t wanna stop flirting with your eyes, mind and all things naughty! Esha Gupta, who has been heating up the internet with some ridiculously sexy semi-nude pictures

since over a week now, is back with yet another tease – this time with a bare butt on display. Yes, she just shared this bold pic on Instagram with a caption saying, “Why Stop Now!” Like are you even realizing how much she’s enjoying your attention around her drop dead sexy bod? And why wouldn’t she? After all everyone goes by the saying, “If you got it, flaunt it” but just that Esha has taken the saying way TOO seriously, especially after the pomegranate pic that she’d posted yesterday… Nevertheless, judge her as much as you want but Esha Gupta is certainly owning the social media game by breaking the internet, one pic at a time. In fact, if you notice the pattern, you will also realise how with every next picture, she has been taking off her clothes, with this latest one left with just a pair of stockings.

Toilet – Ek Prem Katha Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar’s film gives out a strong message with some light moments in the first half Toilet has a weak and shaky second half. It is so stretched and agonisingly painful that you just might take multiple loo breaks before the end credits roll in. The makers go overboard in ensuring the commercial viability of the film by putting in too many songs and dramatic face offs post interval. Keshav and Bhumi who felt real and empathetic in the first half

Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is a satirical romantic comedy, starring Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar in the lead. Directed by Shree Narayan Singh, the movie is based in the issue of lakh of toilet facilities leading to open defecation that is still happening in many parts of the country. Prime Minister’s Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan campaign also plays a major factor in the story. While the message that the movie intends to deliver is fine, will it really mesh well with the review? The storyline of Toilet Ek Prem Katha is no mystery. Based on a true story of a woman leaving her husband after his family refuses to construct a toilet for her, this Akshay Kumar – Bhumi Pednekar drama tries to build up a narrative around the incident and lace it with light moments. Akshay plays Keshav the husband whose father believes in every superstition and religious occult in the book. Bhumi who plays Jaya is his nemesis, an educated girl who stands out like a fish out of water in a village where women organise ‘Lota Parties’ to defecate in the open and discuss their marriage woes. The clash between Keshav and Jaya goes beyond ideologies and comes down to basic beliefs and values. Their idea of hygiene and sanitation is based on the principles their parents have instilled in them. Jaya refuses to live with Keshav until he constructs a toilet in his house while the villagers and elders believe that doing so is an open challenge to age old morals and religious doctrines. Toilet Ek Prem Katha is an attempt to make a full length film out of a 15 minute public service announcement, which is why it feels so stretched and invariably long in the second half. However there are a few redeeming factors that make Toilet worth a watch. Let’s find out what. Akshay Kumar has aced versatility like no one else. His choice of films and the characters he’s played over the last few years have showcased that he can approach any subject with utmost dedication. With Toilet Ek Prem Katha, Akshay uses his natural charm to his advantage making Keshav likeable. Despite the gaping holes in the script and over the top preachy monologues, Akshay keeps you engaged with his act. His scenes with his father and the outburst in front of the villagers are the highlight. But the star of the film for me was Bhumi Pednekar. She makes Jaya seem real not just superficially with the dialect and look, but her agony, pain and anger is utterly relatable. You don’t necessarily have to be from a small town or village to empathise with her. Bhumi also holds her ground in several big scenes with Akshay. Having established the fact that he’s playing an older man their pairing doesn’t look weird. Ample research has gone down in ensuring the film touches upon the right facts and figures and most of this information is downright shocking. Toilet is an important film solely because it addresses such a basic issue that has been veiled under the lace of social embarrassment. Also full marks to the dialect coaches of ensuring all characters are in sync with their accents.

become nagging and annoying in the second. Also despite having an important message to convey the film gets too preachy and serous towards the end. Keshav’s scenes with his father have such loud over the top background music that you feel a TV soap is being played out on the big screen. Also the message of the film could have been a 15 minute public

service announcement, perhaps it would have championed the cause better ? But to have a two and half hour long film about sanitation and defecation problems starts losing its sheen on the entertainment quotient. The songs like I mentioned don’t really add any value to the story neither do they help the tempo of the film.

Alia Bhatt is not too keen on doing Aashiqui 3 with Sidharth Malhotra?

While fans and family are excited for Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra’s Aashiqui 3, the actress doesn’t seem very pumped up for the same. A report in Mumbai Mirror has stated that the petite diva isn’t very keen on doing the film but has only accommodated it due to sentimental reasons. Comes as a shock, doesn’t it? She may have given her word on this project but Alia isn’t excited for the project. With projects like Dragon with Ranbir Kapoor, Gully Boy with Ranveer Singh and Raazi with Vicky Kaushal, the actress is all the more apprehensive of doing Aashiqui 3. While the actress still has the entire 2018 to make an informed decision about whether she will comply to this project or if she will back out, we wonder what are Sidharth’s thoughts on this. Does he feel the same? Buzz about Sid and Alia doing Aashiqui 3 started last year itself however, it was confirmed earlier this year. Mahesh Bhatt himself stated that both the actors will be a part of the venture. On the same, filmmaker Mohit Suri even commented, “It’s a loved franchise but it should come back for the right reason, which is the script. I would’ve made ‘Aashiqui 2’ even if it would’ve been

called ‘RJ ki ek love story’. I wanted to make the film badly and tell the story. You shouldn’t make a film because you want to capitalise on a title. You can get the film to the audience but you can’t make them like it. I can lose everything I built with ‘Aashiqui 2’ by making a bad ‘Aashiqui 3’.” Good news is the film will definitely be made, in time. Bad news? Well, we wonder if will do the project or get caught up with her offers. With the kind of magic created by Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, we’re certain that even Sidharth and Alia will match up to it. However, it’s only possible if the other elements like music and storyline, falls in place. You see, the biggest sellout for both the parts have been the music and the intoxicating chemistry. Even Mukesh Bhatt agrees to that as he had stated, “The Aashiqui franchise is a labour of love which was created by my brother, Mahesh Bhatt, Shri Gulshan Kumar and myself back in 1990. Our association for the movies with T-Series has been a proud and dear one, and will continue being so for Aashiqui 3. This is a partnership between Vishesh Films and T-Series only and we are very excited to continue this journey with them.”

Salman Khan has a plan for Tiger Zinda Hai which will make people forget about Tubelight With the way 2017 has shaped up, Bollywood is in deep soup. Its regular winners are falling flat at the box office. Salman Khan‘s Tubelight and Shah Rukh Khan‘s Jab Harry Met Sejal have left the industry badly bruised. While we don’t know how SRK is coping with the failure, Salman seems to have a plan which will help everyone erase the memory of Tubelight. He has a plan for Tiger Zinda Hai that the director Ali Abbas Zafar has to stick to. He wants the film to be as massy as it can be. Salman wants TZH to be as commercial as a movie can be. He wants everything that his fans expect from him. In his last few films, he tried to be different from the usual and the outcome wasn’t as great. While Bajrangi Bhaijaan made his fans demand National Award for him, Tubelight backfired. Hence, Salman has apparently instructed Ali to make TZH as commercially viable as possible. Right now, he wants to play to the gallery, PERIOD!

It wouldn’t be difficult, we feel, because Ek Tha Tiger had already set the template for it. The first film had every blockbuster element that a Salman Khan film has. The actor feels that the film will be his redemption at the box office this Christmas and wants to make sure everything is done properly.

Rumours suggest he lost almost R60 crore over the failure of the two projects.

Like Salman, I have worked with Shah Rukh in the past too. He is a nice person. I hope we get some kind of compensation for Jab Harry Met Sejal too, but it is

Prisoner Farhan goes a cappella

Narendra Hirawat all up to them [the producers]. As of now, there hasn’t been any word on it.” We reached out to Salim Khan, who asserted that Salman Khan Films will soon provide the compensation, as promised. The celebrated screenwriter said, “Ek baar jo humne commitment kar di hai, toh woh patthar ki lakeer hai. We haven’t returned the money yet, as it takes time to calculate the amount. Many people are involved, so, it can’t be done overnight. We will definitely return the money.”

FARHAN Akhtar’s love for music is well-known — the actor has crooned several numbers in his previous outings, Rock On (2008), Rock On 2 (2016) and Dil Dhadakne Do (2015), among others. Akhtar has now tried his hand at a cappella for the song Ek Kabootar, Do Kabootar from his forthcoming film, Lucknow Central, where he plays a jailbird. A cappella is essentially a style of singing, solo or group, without any instrument accompaniment. Director Ranjit Tiwari says the idea of including this form of music came from daily life incidents. He says, “Sometimes, when we are talking to someone, the person is tapping his foot. It is from here that we got the idea of giving these traits a musical bend. So, while writing the characters of the film, these traits naturally became a part of them.” Producer Nikkhil Advani says that they explored the a cappella style as the song is based in jail and the inmates wouldn’t be familiar with musical instruments. ‘Since inmates aren’t used to musical instruments, we decided to incorporate a cappella’

“Since the jail inmates aren’t competent with musical instruments, we decided to incorporate body percussion and a cappella techniques. We got ace percussionist Taufiq Qureshi on board, he added a lot of layers to the song.” The makers also brought world famous body percussionist Bharat Verma on board to train the actors, including Akhtar. “Everyone — Farhan, Gippy [Grewal], Deepak, Rajesh [Sharma] and Inaam [Ul Haq] — submitted themselves to learning this technique and have actually performed it in the song.”

The big clash

Tongue twisters Last seen in Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 (2013), Bobby Deol returns to the scene with Shreyas Talpade’s Poster Boys. During the shoot, the comic caper’s writer Bunty Rathod took it upon himself to coach the actor for his role of a Hindi school teacher. Every day, before the shoot would commence, Bobby had to recite the Gayatri Mantra followed by reading Hindi newspapers and essays to improve fluency. All this to ensure that Bobby speak shuddh Hindi.

A stinking mess Sumeet Raghvan posted a video on Facebook to highlight the pathetic state of the state-run Sant Eknath auditorium in Aurangabad. The actor performed at the well known landmark recently. He was shocked to see the damaged stage, broken chairs, unkempt music system and stinking toilets. The video has gone viral with fans and art lovers expressing anger about the sorry state of affairs. Sumeet is hoping the state government takes note and restores the auditorium’s old glory.

Yesterday, the makers of the Shraddha Kapoor-starrer Haseena Parkar announced the film will release on September 22. It was slated to hit the marquee this month, but was pushed to avoid a clash with other films. Now, it will locks horns with Sanjay Dutt’s comeback film Bhoomi, which has Aditi Rao Hydari play his daughter. Ironically, Dutt and Haseena director Apoorva Lakhia are buddies. The actor was part of his thriller, Shootout At Lokhandwala (2007). To avoid a clash with others, Lakhia is now locking horns with a pal.

Users trying to access the site have been receiving messages saying the block is upon the directions of India’s Department of Telecom. The stoppage comes as a result of two Bollywood production companies issuing a mass takedown request against websites allegedly hosting pirated copies of

their films. The website bans were granted by the Madras High Court on August 2. They had been sought by Prakash Jha and Ekta Kapoor for their film, Lipstick Under My Burkha and Red Chillies Entertainment for Jab Harry Met Sejal.

Facing the wrath Pakistani actors, Saba Qamar, who was seen in the Irrfan Khan-starrer Hindi Medium, and Imran Abbas, who featured in Creature 3D (2014) and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (2016), have found themselves to be at the receiving end of trolls. The two have been praising the Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharmastarrer Jab Harry Met Sejal. This has not gone down well with the detractors across the border. They felt Jab Harry Met Sejal was a copy of the Pakistani film, Bachana, and that the two were resorting to such measures to get Bollywood offers.

ON THE SET Sumeet Vyas (best remembered as Mikesh in the web series, Permanent Roommates) and Evelyn Sharma have begun shooting in Coimbatore for the web show, Stupid Man, Smart Phone.

Is Angelina, Brad’s divorce off the cards? Insiders suggest Pitt amending habits to ‘win her back’ FRIENDS of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt claim divorce proceedings of the stars have stalled. As per news reports on international publications, the former power couple, who split in September 2016, has not moved forward with proceedings to end marriage. An insider told a portal, “The divorce is off. They haven’t done anything to move it forward in several months and no one thinks they are ever going to.” It is reported that Pitt’s commitment to self-improvement has struck a chord with Jolie, who reportedly previously claimed she would consider taking Pitt back “if he showed he was committed to raising a family”. The actor came clean about his boozing in an earlier interview.

I don’t agree with what dad said: Ranbir Actor reacts to Rishi Kapoor slamming Anurag Basu for Jagga Jasoos’ debacle

(From left) Anurag Basu; Rishi Kapoor; Ranbir Kapoor WHATEVER Rishi Kapoor said was just to protect him, feels Ranbir Kapoor in regard to his father’s criticism on his recent release, Jagga Jasoos. “My father is an emotional man. I think he was only protecting me,” Ranbir said at the trailer launch of Sanjay Dutt’s comeback film Bhoomi yesterday, when asked what he thinks of his father’s take on his recently released Anurag Basu-directorial. He added, “I don’t necessarily agree with what he said. We worked on Jagga Jasoos for three years and we knew what we were doing and how it was being made. Sometimes you succeed, sometimes you fail. I don’t look at it as failure. I look at it as a

‘Proud to be part of Mubarakan’ Actor Lalit Parimoo says he is elated that the family comedy has won appreciation from the audience LALIT Parimoo, who was seen as Paramjit in the Anil Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor starrer Mubarakan, is delighted that the film has worked wonders at the box office. “It’s important for an actor that his film fares well at the box office and is watched by all sections of the society,” says Parimoo. He feels that the biggest strength of the film is that it does not resort to slapstick comedy to tickle the audience’s funny bone. The actor adds, “I feel proud to be a part of a wholesome entertainer like Mubarakan.” The senior actor believes all credit goes to director Anees Bazmee as he had the vision to pull off the multi-starrer. “Bazmee has the knack for extracting fine performances from all his actors. Shooting with the entire team in

London was a beautiful experience.” Besides playing Dr. Jaikal in Shaktimaan, Parimoo was also a part of Vishal Bhardwaj’s critically acclaimed Haider (2014). He also has 75 TV shows to his credit The actor recently wrapped up the shoot of Panchlait, which is based on a short story written by Phanishwar Nath Renu. Parimoo will be seen playing the leader of a ras-leela group in the Prem Modidirected venture. He also has director Sudhanshu Sharma’s Love All in his kitty. The film sees him playing an industrialist who harbours political ambitions. Excited about portraying the layered character, he says, “It’s a challenge to play a role with grey shades. As an artiste, I love to experiment with different kinds of characters.”

learning experience. I cannot answer for somebody else, but I don’t necessarily agree with anybody else.” In an interview with mid day, the 64-year-old had slammed Basu for being irresponsible with the film. Soon after the release of Jagga Jasoos, that didn’t fare well at the box office, the veteran actor had said that even after three years of making, the film was incomplete and that Basu was cutting it even two days before the release.

Battling climate change THE poster of Nila Madhab Panda’s film Kadvi Hawa, which addresses the issue of climate change, was unveiled yesterday by Erik Solheim, the general and executive director, United Nations Environment Programme. Known for his issuebased films such as I Am Kalam (2010) and Jalpari (2012), the 43-year-old director’s project is being touted as the first full-fledged feature film to be supported by the United Nations. The movie is based on the environmental threats faced by the Chambal belt in the Bundelkhand region of northern India. At the centre of the plot is a 70-year-old blind man, played by actor Sanjay Mishra, who is most affected by the water crisis in the area. Talking about the film, which received a special mention at the 64th National Awards this year, Panda said,

Still from Kadvi Hawa; (inset) director Nila Madhab Panda “The idea of the film was to tell an emotional story based on true events to people who think that climate change is an issue that does not affect them. They need to know that it’s here and happening. Calling the film a mirror to the society, Mishra said he felt honoured to be a part of Kadvi Hawa. “You can afford to lose anything, but not the climate. It is scary that we now tend to have only two seasons, summers and winters,” he said. The film also features Ranvir Shorey and Tillotama Shome. Agencies

Andrew Chapman lives in a nine-unit condo building converted from a boutique hotel in downtown Montreal near the busy Berri-UQAM Metro station, a desirable home in a desirable area of an internationally popular city. So much so, that Chapman has found himself to be the building’s only full-time resident — because the rest of the units are being rented on services like Airbnb. “Gradually over the past couple of years since I bought my condo, I’ve noticed the creeping in of more and more short-term renters,” he said in an interview on Tuesday. ‘They’re basically running hotels’: Property management companies Airbnb’s biggest winners “We buy houses, whether it’s on a street with picket fences or in a condo, and part of the experience is to get to know your neighbours and build relationships with the people that live close to you,” he said. “In this type of environment, you miss out on that a little bit. It can feel a bit lonely at times.” Chapman contacted CBC News about his experience after McGill urban planning professor David Wachsmuth said on Monday that new research he led shows Airbnb is eating into the available housing stock in Montreal, Vancouver and Toronto, as well as driving up rents. Wachsmuth said a growing number of listings are for entire houses or apartments, and are owned by property management

he $240-million Credit Suisse/ SwissReal tower in the heart of downtown Vancouver will be completed in less than a year, but so far, only one tenant has signed up to move in. The tenant has committed for a 10th of the 370,000 square feet – leaving a state of emptiness that is unusual for an office skyscraper in this city. Even so, a huge shift in business tenancy is expected as the region experiences something it has not seen before: an office-tower building boom much of which is speculative construction rather than for specific committed tenants. “This is kind of uncharted territory for Vancouver,” said Mehdi Shokri, a principal with the capital markets team at Avison Young. “But I don’t see a big disaster occurring.” The Credit Suisse tower is only the most visible and furthest along of a second wave of new office towers planned for Vancouver and some key suburbs. A first cluster of towers – some two million square feet – was built downtown in the past three years. Another 11 office developments are proposed within blocks of Credit Suisse’s Exchange tower at Howe and West Pender streets, even while the office-vacancy rate in the region continues to inch up as a result of the first wave of building. But commercial brokers say the city is not about to be populated by ghost towers.

Mr. Shokri and others say they expect many of the new towers to start signing tenant leases as they get closer to completion. That is partly because companies in Vancouver, which do want to be in new, energy-efficient buildings, tend to operate on short timelines. As well, he said, prices in the new buildings will likely come 4 i Saturday, July 25, 2015down in the

next two years due to competition. The landlords who will likely suffer as a result of the current boom are owners of older buildings, Mr. Shokri said. As well, new developments in the suburbs, which have already experienced higher vacancy rates in recent years, may have trouble as they compete with each other. In Vancouver, the co-developer of the Cred-

companies that have multiple listings in a city or even several cities. “They’re basically running hotels ... that are split across multiple apartments,” Wachsmuth said. Because many properties are being listed on Airbnb, it means fewer places are available to rent or buy in the city’s most popular neighbourhoods, Ville-Marie, where Chapman lives, and the Plateau-Mont-Royal. “On every street of PlateauMont-Royal, we predict there are about 10 or so listings that will be registered on Airbnb,” said Gabrielle Renaud, a community organizer with Plateau Mont-Royal Housing Committee, a tenants’ rights group. A property may be listed on the service, but not necessarily rented. However, data provided on the independent open-source website, Inside Airbnb, shows there were at least 2,952 listings for the Plateau area as of May 2016. According to the housing committee, there are 56,580 places to live in the Plateau, meaning a little over five per cent of the neighbourhood’s housing is listed on Airbnb. Wachsmuth himself estimates about two per cent of the area’s housing stock is not available to rent because it’s for rent on Airbnb. Renaud said the group has seen a concentration of listings around parks, like Laurier Park and Lafontaine Park, as well as the Mont-Royal Metro station.

Those companies make their deci-

Metro Vancouver is heading for a rental housing crisis this fall as a “perfect storm” of factors pushes an already record low vacancy rate even lower, says a leading Vancouverbased real estate firm.

Funds Available “There has traditionally been a shortage of rental housing for students when they start school in the fall, but this year it looks like that shortage is going to be a lot worse,” said Nick Marini, vice-president at Macdonald Property Management. Based on government statistics, Macdonald is forecasting a seven-per-cent increase this year in international students attending B.C. educational institutions. Meanwhile, the market-dampening 15-per-cent foreign buyers’ tax and tighter mortgage qualification requirements mean that parents of students are less likely to buy homes for their children, said Marini. As a result, a larger number of students will be hunting for rental housing this fall, increasing demand for accommodation. Marini said the government steps to cool the red-hot housing market — such as the 15-per-cent foreign buyers’ tax and mortgage restrictions requiring that first-time buyers have higher incomes — have only pushed

the housing affordability crisis to the rental market. About 360,000 foreign students are enrolled in Canadian educational institutions every year, and about 100,000 of those attend schools in Vancouver. Contributing to the expected inflow this year is the fact that foreign students and their families are finding the United States a less hospitable environment. With President Donald Trump’s travel bans and other treatment of foreigners, Canada, already seen as a safer and more tolerant society, has become more attractive as an educational destination. Real estate expert Tom Davidoff at the UBC Sauder Business School agrees that this fall will be far worse than past years for rental housing availability. “The biggest impact is people deciding not to get into the owner market,” Davidoff told CBC. “Policies that result in decreased demand on the owner side will likely result in increased demand on the renter side.” “Our view is that demand for housing from international students coming to B.C., generally, and Greater Vancouver, in particular, is likely to reach a new peak this academic year,” says Dan Scarrow of Macdonald Realty in a brief. He predicts there will be a net increase of 9,000 foreign students coming to B.C. this academic year, with about 6,300 of those settling in Metro Vancouver. Also contributing to the student inflow is the fact that Canadian immigration policies are clearer than U.S. ones and encourage students to come here to study and ultimately apply for immigration, said Scarrow.

That is the biggest three-month increase since 1990.

late last year, underscores just how difficult it is to control runaway prices in the face of historically low interest rates and purchasing by foreign investors. Vancouver has become a test lab for policy makers seeking to engineer a soft landing. Canada tightened mortgage rules several times in recent years to discourage a buildup of record consumer debt, and when that didn’t work the B.C. government set a 15-percent foreign buyer tax last August. Toronto followed with a similar levy in April. Statistics Canada doesn’t include condominiums in its new home price index.

Another 11 office developments are proposed within blocks of Credit Suisse’s Exchange tower at Howe and West Pender streets, even while the office-vacancy rate in the region continues to inch up as a result of the first wave of building. But commercial brokers say the city is not about to be populated by ghost towers.
