Hulla Movie Review

Director - Jaideep Varma
Producer - Sunil Doshi

Cast - Sushant Singh, Rajat Kapoor, Kartikadevi Rane, Mandeep, Vrajesh Hirjee, Dibyendu Bhattacharya and others.

Hulla, the film by debutant director Jaideep Varma, is an attempt to capture the travails of those living in an increasingly congested Mumbai and sometimes how something as insignificant as a whistle can cause turmoil in one's life. A share market broker Raj, played by Sushant Singh, shifts into a middle-class building in suburban Mumbai.

He finds he is unable to sleep due to the long-shrill whistle blown by the watchman every now and then, whereas his wife is absolutely unperturbed. Raj futilely turns to Janardan, the building secretary played by Rajat Kapoor, with his complaint. Soon they create a mountain out of a mole hill and the matter reaches the police station and unhinges two families.

This two-hour flick, in a very punny sort of way, gives a quick peek into the lives of the Mumbaikers full of eccentricities and peculiar tensions. People are show doing their bit to scale up the economic-social ladder by buying a better car, bigger house and shifting closer south Mumbai.

The neighbors of Raj - Janardan's wife who is as obsessed with yoga as she is about looking out for a two-bedroom flat and his next-door neighbor's daughter who is constantly breaking things - are really peculiar characters in Hulla. There sure is wit in this film, which Varma has himself penned, but the protagonists lack the energy to keep viewers' interest from wavering during the two-hour long span. On the whole, one can say that the film was a fair attempt.

My career is top priority: Kareena Kapoor

Kareena Kapoor says that she doesn’t like the endless attention people give to her relationship with actor Saif Ali Khan and that most of the stories are untrue.
“There’re so many false stories about Saif and me. But it’s okay. I understand the need to know what’s going in our lives. Are we married… are we not married? Please! Fortunately, I’ve learnt to take all this unwanted speculation in my stride. The best thing is to just do my work and not get affected by the loose talk,” Kareena said in an interview.
She says it was wrong to have heightened expectations from Tashan just because it had Saif and her.
“We just did what the script required us to. I don’t think people should’ve gone to see Tashan as Saif and my love story. What does that mean! We’re playing characters. That’s why Jab We Met worked. The characters worked,” said Kareena.
She doesn’t like comparing her love life with work and said: “When I’m working, I’m working. And when I’m with him (Saif), I’m all there.”
Excerpts:
Q: What’s this about you being the highest paid actress in India?
A: I don’t know what other actors get paid. And I don’t care. I get what I deserve. I’ve slogged right from Refugee to Jab We Met and Tashan. An actor is signed for what he or she can deliver.
Q: Is your price flexible?
A: I’ve always been flexible with my fee. The hunger is for the right roles.
Q: There were lots of heightened expectations from your last release Tashan because of you and Saif.
A: We just did what the script required us to. I don’t think people should’ve gone to see Tashan as Saif and my love story. What does that mean! We’re playing characters. That’s why Jab We Met worked. The characters worked. I had earlier done many films with Shahid while we were seeing each other. They didn’t work. Why?
Q: You tell me.
A: Today it’s the script that works. All actors are hungry for the right scripts and characters.
Q: All the attention given to your relationship with Saif - does that scare you?
A: I can’t stop living my life the way I want to just because of the attention. As long as I don’t let my family down, I’m not scared. I’ll always retain my values. But, yes, at times this endless attention does get scary. There’re so many false stories about Saif and me. But it’s okay. I understand the need to know what’s going in our lives. Are we married… are we not married? Please! Fortunately, I’ve learnt to take all this unwanted speculation in my stride. The best thing is to just do my work and not get affected by the loose talk.
Q: Are you fully comfortable in your relationship with Saif?
A: Yes. But only the two people in a relationship know what is going on. I don’t think people have the right to know what’s going on in my private life. They’ve my films to judge me by. I don’t need to give explanations about what happens behind my closed doors. Right now I’m loving it. The paparazzi is doing their job. We’re doing ours. Both Saif and I understand that.
Q: The two of you don’t have that much work together.
A: No, after Tashan we only have Renzil d’Silva’s film together. Both of us are too sensible to sign films just to spend time together. Saif is way too mature and extremely understanding. He respects the kind of work I like to do as I respect his work. And we keep our careers apart. Saif knows that right now my career is the most important thing to me. And that I need the space to work. To my family and me my career is top priority because I’ve worked really hard to get where I am. You as a friend have watched my struggle. My family and friends know how much I’ve slogged. I won’t give it up for anything.
Q: So career wins over love?
A: There’s no comparison between the two. When I’m working, I’m working. And when I’m with him (Saif), I’m all there. Besides, Saif is a superstar himself. He’s so busy.
Q: How do you rate him as an actor?
A: I think he’s a 10 on 10. The way he can make audiences laugh and cry is amazing. And his one-liners are extremely entertaining. And we’re both moody. So that’s fine.
Q: How excited are you about your current assignments?
A: All my current assignments are completely different from one another. I’m so excited about working with Aamir Khan in Raj Kumar Hirani’s film. Idiots is a comedy with a social message.

Gomaal Returns — Trailer Review

Last year was full of comedy flicks that ruled the box office . The long line up included Welcome , Partner , Heyy Babyy , Bhul Bhulaiya ,Dhamaal , Bheja Fry etc . All of them were box office success and everyone started believing that Comedy films are the roads to success . On the contrary this year very few comedies got released and the few that got released suffered at the box office . This year films like Sunday , One Two Three , Mr. Black Mr. White , DeTaali , Ugly aur Pugly and Maan Gaye Mughal-e-azam released that were all rejected by both audience and critics . All of these films didn’t have neither the script nor the star power . The only comedy film that worked this year is Singh isKinng . In fact it is the biggest box-office success of the year . Well , trying to break the streak of bad comedies this year comes a sequel to a big comedy hit ,Golmaal , with the entire team along with some new faces .

The first trailer of Golmaal Returns is out now and from the looks of trailer it seems that a potential comedy hit is on its way . This time though the Golmaal series gets a little more star studded with Kareena joining in the group along with the other girls like Celina , Amrita Arora and Anjana Sukhani . So this time every guy has his own girl to woo . One guy has also changed , Sharman has been replaced by Shreyas Talpade .

Talking of the trailer , it starts off with some flashback scenes of Golmaal . While these scenes are played a line comes on screen which says that all the fun and madness of Golmaal will return this Diwali along with the fools . After this we see Tushar in his typical voice communicating on a Phone . Then comes the introduction scene of Ajay standing on two Hummers this time instead of two bikes . After Ajay comes Kareena riding on a Honda Motorbike in her new born sexy avatar . After the two stars the rest of the group is introduced one by one doing their respective stunts , Arshad along with Amrita , Shreyas along with Celina and Anjana along with Tushar . Then the whole group is shown dancing to the new Golmaal song which also sounds quite groovy like the original one did . While the whole track is been played in background some more shots of all the leads are shown which keep showing them doing some stunts and comedy . Some of those scenes are quite funny and some them being quite old . There’s a scene that shows a Goa Police Van which means that this one is set up in Goa . The entire trailer majorly focuses on the title track with some of the scenes from the movie inserted in between . The scenes made me believe that there would be all kinds of Jokes in this one . Some very old jokes and some quite new . All the stupidity and Gay Jokes along with some age old Sex comedy would be present there . Then at last come a few mindless action scenes that are always part of a Rohit Shetty film . He has a fascination for toppling cars , he did this in both of his films whether its Golmaal or Sunday . Then at last comes a line that says “Have a Blast This Diwali” .

Lets hope that we do have a blast while watching this film and this one turns out to be as good as the original . Expectations arequite high since Golmaal was big hit and that one was loved even by the critics . That film had situational comedy and the script in itself was quite strong . I just hope they don’t create situations in this one and the scripts has them inherently . The whole chemistry between the actors islooking great but chemistry would do no good if the script isn’t funny . This one though doesn’t have Sharman who is basically very good at comedy and his absence would definitely damage the film a bit . He is replaced by Shreyas who is also a great actor but he would look good only if the character has been written well . His behaviour and acting isn’t that funny so he needs a very well written character so that he can portray it well . His character inOSO was a strong one and he delivered it accordingly .Lets hope he fits in the boots of Sharman exactly like him . Kareena can also do comedy and her character is that of Saas-Bahu daily soap lover . She might turn out to be the funniest character in the film .

Talking of Director , Rohit Shetty , I hope he doesn’t do what he did in Sunday . He should stop stuffing in mindless action that is not required in the script . This film would be a real test for him since his last film Sunday failed at the box office . Ajay also hasn’t had the best year withHalla Bol and Sunday not doing well and his Directional debut U , Me or Hum also doing so so . The year has also been bad for Kareena with her Tashan not impressing anyone .

In all , the trailer looks good with usual funny scenes from the film and a very good sounding song in the background . The film is all set to release on October 29 on the Diwali’s Eve . Check out the trailer (courtesyYoutube , not uploaded by me ) :

Drona --- Trailer Review

The second Superhero to hit the Bollywood scene , Drona , is all set to please the audience after the very successful Krrish . The first trailer of the film , which has been into making since a long time , is out now and the rushes look just usual . The film has been Directed by Goldie Behl who is husband of Sonali Bendre and this is his biggest project . The film starrs Abhishek Bachchan and Priyanka Chopra in the lead . Priyanka probably has a thing for superheroes and she would be the only common thing between them . I hope we get to see a combined version of Krrish Vs. Drona fighting it out for Piggy Chops (Priyanka Chopra) . lol .

Anyways the trailer starts off with a Blue Petal flying into the windows of some apartment (poor graphics there , in terms of international standards) and then there is a dark locality shown which continues in the trailer for some time . Then we get to see Abhishek getting trapped between some Demons made of sand and a line like this goes - " When the survival of mankind will hang in the balance one man will rise and realise his destiny " . There is also a dark look of the Bad Guy which is played by Kay Kay in the starting of the trailer . Then at the end of the trailer we get to see the real Drona in his outfit riding on a horse . The already fat Abhishek looks even more fat with the strangely made costume . This is supposed to be a Indian Superhero so probably he won't wear the Nylon Skin-tight Suit . Instead he will wear a loose and fat looking Cotton Costume . Abhishek also carries a Sword which has some inscriptions on it and the sword is very much similar to the sword that his Dad AB Senior holds in the trailer of Talisman (CGI loaded next film of Amitabh based on Chandrakanta) .
Then at last the name of the film comes "Drona" in a golden colour font which is similar to the Font that was used in the title of Rangeela , the only difference being the colour . You might wonder what difference does the font make , but guys it does create an impression . The name of Krrish was presented in a never used before Font on screen and it looked great . Even the first Teaser of Krrish gave me Goosebumps to a little extent in the theater , this one didn't even excite me visually .

Krrish didn't work because of the special effects but it worked on the story and direction . This is one thing that Rakesh Roshan realised as a wise Director that he cannot spend a huge sum on VFX so he worked hard on the Story and background score . The background score that features in this trailer is very much Spiderman Superman type just with strange sounding Hindi lyrics . The background score that was used in this trailer was not at all good if you ask me . The Visual Effects also didn't please me that were present in this trailer . The sand creatures have been already shown on-screen with utmost perfection in Mummy Returns and Spiderman 3. The effects that are used here are of much lower level than what was used in the hollywood flicks . So why use same sequences that require top notch VFX that any Indian film can't afford and can't produce on its own ? Do something original and which is within the reach of Indian Special effects company .

Overall , The trailer didn't excite me at all and neither did Abhishek's look . The trailer isn't sufficient to create the interest amongst the audience , they might need something more . I hope the story and Direction are better than the first trailer of the film . The film set to release on October 2 .

'DRONA' IS A CHILDHOOD DREAM

Goldie Behl, the director of 'Drona' is very excited about his forthcoming production that showcases Priyanka Chopra and Abhishek Bachchan in a role that has never been seen before. For this movie, Abhi has taken rigorously training in numerous action sequences from Shyam Kaushal (India) and Tom Delmar (overseas). Incidentally, these actions include adventurous games and sports like scuba diving, horse riding, free running, sword fighting, chao, kalari and ghatka. Regarding the other salient feature of his film he speaks about Kay Kay (Menon), who plays a negative character. He is confident that KK's unpredictable performance will lead him back to experimental theatre. 'Drona' is set in a fantasy world as it has been a childhood fantasy for both - Abhishek and Goldie!


When asked about the philosophy behind his movie, Goldie says that its character has a special purpose, which all of us are born with. Few of us realise it and few don't. It is the story of one such person who realises that he is special. His journey of realization is told in a larger-than-life story, Goldie adds. Goldie has had a lot of support from his family in the making of the film. Sister Shrishti Behl and mother Madhu have stood with him right from the film's conceptualisation. So has Sonali Behl, Goldie's wife. While Sameer Arya, Shrishti's husband and also movie's cinematographer, has lent great support, Sonali has been the bouncing board for his script, Goldie says with proud.

WILL KANGNA GO BALD FOR RS 10 MILLION?

Pretty Kangana Ranaut known for long locks is faced with a great dilemma. She has been offered a hefty sum of more than Rs 10 million to get the bald look for a new Tamil film. This is to recall that Kangna has been very popular in the southern film industry, especially after the success of her first Tamil film, 'Dhaam Dhoom'. South Indian directors are crazy about her. Answering to our query, the Tamil movie director says that his action thriller demands the actress in a bald state for a few scenes! Though Kangna hasn't yet accepted the offer, she hasn't rejected either.


The sum offered is too huge to decline. Besides, she says that the role is a very challenging one. Going bold isn't too much for the pretty girl but going bald is, as she would lose her dearest locks. As far as playing a bold character is concerned, she would soon be seen as an infamous and unfortunate model Geetanjali, in Madhur Bhandarkar's forthcoming 'Fashion'. But, going bald onscreen is too much for a young actor like her. Very few actresses like Nandita Das, Shabana Azmi, Lisa Ray and Seema Biswas have gone bald to play for their parts in Bollywood. Let Kangna decide for herself.

Workers create ruckus on the sets of Himesh's M2KNDM2K

Early this week, it was a clear commotion on the sets of Himesh Reshammiya's Mudh Mudh Ke Na Dekkh Mudh Mudh Ke aka M2KNDM2K. Some of the workers apparently stopped work for an entire day and launched a protest, Reason? They claimed that they were unpaid for their work and after waiting patiently for last few days, they eventually gave up and put the shooting to standstill. Incidentally, it was supposed to be the last day of the shooting for the film's current schedule.

Says a cast member who was present on the sets when the issue snowballed, "There was clear resentment amongst the workers as they were constantly demanding money to be paid to them for their work over all these days. They had approached people at the levels reachable to them but to no avail. Eventually, they couldn't take it anymore and called it quits. They declared loud and clear that the work would resume only if they were paid for the days they had spent on the sets."

But wasn't it unethical to come up with such measures? "Was it ethical on the part of the makers to keep their own crew members unpaid? Don't these workers have to run their families? All said and done, it never seemed to be the case of shortage of money. These workers were just being shortchanged all this while", protests the source in favor of workers.

Himesh Reshammiya who plays the lead in the film was not present on the sets that day. However, Niharika Singh (leading lady of the film), Farida Jalal and Shakeel Khan (who plays a blind man in the film) amongst others saw all the action right in front of them.

On being contacted, a crew member (on the condition of anonymity) confirmed the news, "Yes, something to the tune of this did indeed happen though everything has been sorted out now. In fact on the same evening the workers were paid their money."

Replying to the query around what had actually transpired; she divulged after an initial hesitation, "It was an internal problem between the workers. The payment was given to an agent who didn't further pay workers on time. This is why once the schedule got over as per the plans on 15th September; they created a scene a day later. The incident happened on 16th and hence didn't impact the schedule at all. Thankfully, there is no issue anymore and we all are looking forward to coming back for the next schedule."

Meghna Gulzar directs Ranbir Kapoor

After winning many critical acclamations for its debut production film, Khosla Ka Ghosla, Raj Hiremath & Savita Raj Hiremath of Tandav Films Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. are now producing a video to mobilize masses to stand up in the movement against poverty. The video features many renowned celebrities from different fields. With This video to be known as Public Social Advertising (PSA), Tandav Films have brought various known faces from different walks of life to stand up together against a social cause.

Namely, the master of music, A.R Rehman, lyrics maestro, Gulzar, Singing sensations Sonu Nigam and Sunidhi Chauhan, Indian Cricketer Yuvraj Singh, the young & dashing actor Ranbir Kapoor and cross border model turned actress of ‘Khuda Kay Liye’ Fame Imaan Ali will be seen in the video, conveying the right message to the masses for removal of poverty. This video is being directed by Meghna Gulzar and is already in its production stage.

Considering their quality work in the field of communications with creative content in Advertising and Feature Films, United Nations Millennium Campaign (UNMC) has assigned Tandav Films to take care of the production of this video. Another reason of this video alongside educating and informing the masses would also be to popularize Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The video will essentially focus on the global advocacy campaign called “Stand up and Take Action”.

In last October, 43 million people across the globe took part in this campaign and set up a Guinness world record. A bigger number is what the UNMC is all eyeing upon this year and that is why they are involving the Indian celebrities this time to stand as a face to this campaign. Celebrities’ voice makes a lot of difference when collaborate with a cause. They attract more people than any organizations. Thus the correct selection of production house and celebrities is the prior choice for positive outputs.
“We are pleased with such a warm gesture by UNMC. I think it is our mere vision towards creativity that led us to attain this project and I am happy it is for a noble cause. I would like to add as much as to this social need. I announce that this video will be aired free of cost in major Television Channels", is what Raj Hiremath, the producer of this video quips.

After the success of Khosla Ka Ghosla, which was released in 2006 and won many a rave reviews, Raj & Savita’s confidence has been doubled. It is a truth that there was no brand ambassador for the movie however Tandav Films took it to the levels of success with their undeterred focus towards creativity. The forte of Khosla Ka Ghosla was its simplicity, sincerity and substance and much of that credit went to Tandav Films for organizing all of those things so well.

“Starting from Advertising to a stage where we are all set to produce many films is a journey which I believe is just an extension to our creativity. Advertising kept us a bit restricted since we had to work on a set brief, while film making is more liberal in many ways. I am glad to have such an opportunity to work with renowned organization like UNMC and I am sure that we would prove them our creativity and credibility", he further adds.

This video is a very big & prestigious project which includes many world famous brand patents also. Even for the UNMC it was a tough task to locate right people for this job and they underwent stringent criteria of selection for this. Ultimately the creative urge of Tandav Films bagged them this project. It certainly is a big honor for this production house to represent the Indian creativity on an International level. The video is almost ready for telecast and will start airing from next week onwards

"Shah Rukh thought I wasn't provided food" - Shahid Kapoor

This weekend on 'Sajid Superstars', it is Shahid Kapoor's turn to get candid as he talks about his personal as well as professional life. While he shares little known facts about his early days in the world of glitz and glamour, he also reasons that there has to be a line drawn between personal and professional life.

- One of the early incidents that Shahid narrates on the show is set in the time when he was working with Shiamak Davar's dance troupe. Shah Rukh Khan once dropped in at a show and on seeing Shahid, he immediately questioned Shiamak if he didn't feed his troupe members well. Reason behind the question? Shahid was quite thin and lanky in his early days and was nowhere close to as well built as he is today. Coming back to the comment, Shahid took it quite personally and started working hard on his body.

- Shahid also talks about how he lacked confidence in his teenage years due to his physique. His confidence did get a boost though when his first music video was out. Ever famous 'Aankhon Mein Tera Hi Chehra' featured him along with his then girlfriend Hrishita Bhatt and gained quite some popularity for itself. One day he saw some girls talking about the video and exclaiming 'Oh so cute'. He obviously thought that the compliments were for him but on close hearing, he realized that they were talking about the dog in the video!

- Another fact from the past which is revealed is about his dance performance alongside Aishwarya Rai years back. It is not known to all but the fact is that in the movie Taal, he was one of the background dancers from Shiamak Davar's troupe for the number 'Kahin Aag Lage Lag Jaaye'!

- Apparently. there was no love lost between Fardeen Khan and Shahid Kapoor during the shooting of Fida (which incidentally also starred Kareena Kapoor), Sajid Khan questions him on what had gone wrong.

- There are light moments in the show as well as the Sania Mirza reference comes in, though in a subtle manner. As Shahid disclosed that Tennis is his favorite sport with Federer and Martina Navratilova being his favorite tennis players, Sajid cheekily asked him if there was some 'young Indian female tennis player' who was his favorite!

- Shahid mentioned though that a line had to be drawn between one's personal life and professional life and maintained that one had to do a balancing act to get things moving.

- In one of the most popular sections of 'Sajid Superstars', Shahid's best and worst scenes from chosen from Jab We Met and Vaah Life Ho To Aisi respectively. Any guesses around these scenes?

- He was politically correct when asked to choose the better dancer between him and Hrithik Roshan. Though he managed to dodge the query and come out unscathed, there is some fun in store as Sajid's own performance on the number 'Tamma Tamma Loge' [Thandedaar] in a college function would be showcased for the first time on television.

- About his personal life, Shahid admitted that he was a vegetarian by choice. He also confessed that he is actually quite a boring person. He was also asked that if he was not successful as an actor, would he have been an architect or a doctor? Any guesses around what would Shahid' have opted for?

- Last but not the least; an interesting trivia was unearthed on the show. While Shahid has worked with Sanjay Dutt in Vaah Life Ho To Aisi, his mother too has acted with Sanju baba a few years back!

Keep jogging your memory cells as 'Sajid Superstars' brings an answer to this and a lot more at 8:00 PM, Saturday on the newly launched channel COLORS!

SRK's new business plans

When it comes to marketing and investing, everyone in Bollywood knows how shrewd Shah Rukh Khan is.

After putting in his money on an IPL Cricket team, a successfully running movie production house and a VFX company, SRK it seems have seriously got smitten by a new interest.

The latest money minting venture in which Shah Rukh has invested is the real estate.

On the Al Dana Island in Ras Al Khaimah which is one of UAE's seven emirates, the king of Bollywood is bringing up a housing project named as Shah Rukh Khan Boulevard.

Imran Hashmi To Play Lead Role In Film On 26/7 Mumbai Flood

A film based on the horrific flooding of Mumbai in the year 2005, Imran Hashmi and Soha Ali Khan have been paired for lead roles. The film which still does not have any title would be directed by Kunal Deshmukh. He is the same director who has directed film Jannat some time ago. According to sources shooting of the film will start from the month of November.

Admittedly, the July 26 flood which was caused by a record rainfall of 944 mm in 24 hours in Mumbai had taken four hundred lives and left thousands affected with water born diseases. The day is a lifetime remembrance for film industry too as many of them were caught in water logging for hours. The film in that way is tribute to life of Mumbai city.

Director of the film said that the Mumbai floods have been imprinted on the hearts of Mumbaikars forever, and nobody have ever thought that a metropolitan city could get flooded so badly and so many people would be killed. He promised that he would try to recreate whatever he could and would narrate the story exactly on what happened rather than going into unnecessary blame games.

Movie Review : Saas Bahu Aur Sensex

There's a little bit of saas bahu bickering and a little bit of sensex understanding, but more of a love triangle. In short, the movie has nothing to do with Saas, Bahu or Sensex. That out of the way, you focus on director Shona Urvashi's sister Masumeh, giving shot's in 'one take' with that of Tanushree Duttas '20'. That's what the media reports said prior to the films release, but what one sees is Tanushree, looking slim and sexy, walking with the best shots, probably given in max 5 takes! While Tanushree's character 'Nitya' is well carved out, Masumeh's 'Kirti' is sketchy at best.

And the script too is way beyond tight for the director to have any freedom to experiment with his cast. The location is a residential colony in Navi Mumbai. A mother (Kirron Kher) has come with her daughter (Tanushree Duta) to make Mumbai her home after divorcing her husband in Kolkatta. The film is about their bonding with the residents of the building. There's also a Call Centre thrown in for good measure. This particular Call Centre has a direct bearing with the way the stocks will fluctuate later in the movie.
The star of the film is undoubtedly Farooq Sheikh. As the eccentric Parsi stock broker who later guides the ladies in their investment, he is awesome. One gets the feeling that he has closely observed the mannerisms of his Parsi friends to come up with such a convincing performance. I dare say even Boman Irani would have fallen short! As Firoz Setna, he walks, talks and breathes the part with the ease of a pro. Ankur Khanna, is the other, apart from Tanushree, who hogs the limelight. This boy here has potential, which was seen in SIRF, too.

This movie is all about Farooq, Ankur and Tanushree.

Could WELCOME TO SAJJANPUR do the trick for Amrita Rao?

Though Amrita Rao had a good run in her initial phase of career, her career did not take off. Her last successful film was VIVAH, and before that MAIN HOON NA. Now in WELCOME TO SAJJANPUR she is appearing in a totally deglamourized role, and could this turn out to be the turning phase in her career?

Why this question is being raised is on account of the director who is directing this film, Shyam Benegal. Right from his earlier days of film making Shyam Benegal has been credited with giving a new career to the female actors in her films, inspite of the fact that the male co-stars have given a powerhouse of performance.

It all started with Shabana Azmi when her career just launched into stratosphere after stellar performance in ANKUR, and Smita Patil came into limelight after BHUMIKA following the same with MANDI. It happened with Rekha and Karishma Kapoor in ZUBEIDA. Even Nina Gupta had her magical moments in TRIKAAL and she never got a chance to attain the same after TRIKAAL. SARDARI BEGUM gave a launch to the career of Kiron Kher and she became a big time character actress in the commercial films in a big way. Fareeda Jalal came into her own being and gave her lifetime performance in MUMMO.

With such an illustrious record of having culled out performances from the actresses in the past and catapulting them all together into a new orbit, the same magic should work for Amrita Rao as well. Amrita Rao has demonstrated in the past, more so in MAIN HOON NA that she has the potential but she needs a director and she can shine. It may also be fortunate for her that she has not been paired opposite any famous star of the fist category, but has been paired with Shreyas Talpade and Ravi Kishan so she can be expected to score her point. WELCOME TO SAJJANPUR may therefore be a new welcome to her career

Ash-Akki in Vipul's ACTION REPLAY

The KINNG of the Box–office Akshay Kumar and the Queen of million hearts Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are all set to pair–up!

Yes the 2 top–notches of Bollywood are heard to team up once again in the forthcoming venture ACTION REPLAY. Akki–Ash were first seen together way back in 2004 in Rajkumar Santoshi's action–pack film KHAKEE, where Ash for the very first time had portrayed a negative character. After that we never had a chance to see the dashing pair together. And now it is none other than producer/director Vipul Shah who is getting them together again after so many years in his next film ACTION REPLAY.

Undoubtedly, Akshay is Vipul's favourite, but what comes as a surprise is that Vipul preferred Ash over Katrina Kaif instead this time around opposite Akshay.

The shooting is expected to begin somewhere in February 2009

The secret of Katrina's hot quotient!

Finally revealed the secret of why Katrina is so super hot. Literally at that! A close friend of the actress reveals, ''Katrina has shot in the most extreme weather conditions with temperatures as hot as a burning furnace. But never once has she complained about it.''

Giving an example the friend added, ''When SINGH IS KINNG's song was being shot in Egypt; it was burning hot at that time. The entire cast and crew were perspiring profusely except for Katrina. She looked absolutely chilled out. In fact the hot weather only added to her energies as she went about doing her work calmly. The entire team stood surprised.''

It is the cold weather that leaves Katrina absolutely cold. ''While shooting for AJAB PREM KI GHAZAB KAHAANI in Ooty, Katrina had wrapped herself in layers of blankets. In fact it made quite a funny sight where unit members including Ranbir began teasing her saying, ''We now know that most apt gift to give you on any occasion–shawls and sweaters

Guess success has not turned Katrina thick–skinned!

Sajid donned the new role of a lecturer after much deliberation. A source close to the director revealed, ''Prominent faculty from leading colleges of Mumbai had always called upon Sajid to be a guest lecturer for their mass media courses. But he had not taken any decision as yet regarding that matter. Sajid finally decided to go ahead and give a lecture at Jai Hind College. This is for the first time that Sajid will encounter college students on such a close level.'' Sajid's lecture was peppered with humour. ''Sajid has the knack to make people laugh. Here too it was no different. The students enjoyed his whacky sense humour and at the same time got the know–how of the ins and outs of the media business.''

Sajid will use his celebrity status as a platform to share vital information with aspiring students of the media. ''Sajid is glad that he is getting to share his experiences as a television personality and director and hopes that his contribution remains a guiding factor in for the young college students,'' said the source.

Celebes stand up for removal of poverty

After winning many critical acclamations for its debut production film, KHOSLA KA GHOSLA, Raj Hiremath & Savita Raj Hiremath of Tandav Films Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. are now producing a video to mobilize masses to stand up in the movement against poverty. The video features many renowned celebrities from different fields. With this video to be known as Public Social Advertising (PSA), Tandav Films have brought various known faces from different walks of life to stand up together against a social cause.

Namely, the master of music, A.R Rehman, lyrics maestro, Gulzar, Singing sensations Sonu Nigam and Sunidhi Chauhan, Indian Cricketer Yuvraj Singh, the young & dashing actor Ranbir Kapoor and cross border model turned actress of KHUDA KAY LIYE Fame Imaan Ali will be seen in the video, conveying the right message to the masses for removal of poverty. This video is being directed by Meghna Gulzar and is already in its production stage.

Considering their quality work in the field of communications with creative content in Advertising and Feature Films, United Nations Millennium Campaign (UNMC) has assigned Tandav Films to take care of the production of this video. Another reason of this video alongside educating and informing the masses would also be to popularize Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The video will essentially focus on the global advocacy campaign called ''Stand up and Take Action''.

In last October, 43 million people across the globe took part in this campaign and set up a Guinnies world record. A bigger number is what the UNMC is all eyeing upon this year and that is why they are involving the Indian celebrities this time to stand as a face to this campaign. Celebrities� voice makes a lot of difference when collaborate with a cause. They attract more people than any organizations. Thus the correct selection of production house and celebrities is the prior choice for positive outputs.

''We are pleased with such a warm gesture by UNMC. I think it is our mere vision towards creativity that leads us to attain this project and I am happy it is for a noble cause. I would like to add as much as to this social need. I announce that this video will be aired free of cost in major Television Channels.'' Is what Raj Hiremath, the producer of this video quips.

''Starting from Advertising to a stage where we are all set to produce many films is a journey which I believe is just an extension to our creativity. Advertising kept us a bit restricted since we had to work on a set brief, while film making is more liberal in many ways. I am glad to have such an opportunity to work with renowned organization like UNMC and I am sure that we would prove them our creativity and credibility.'' He further adds

This video is a very big & prestigious project which includes many world famous brand patents also. Even for the UNMC it was a tough task to locate right people for this job and they underwent stringent criteria of selection for this. Ultimately the creative urge of Tandav Films bagged them this project. It certainly is a big honor for this production house to represent the Indian creativity on an International level. The video is almost ready for telecast and will start airing from next week onwards.

Rahul wows in BEFORE THE RAINS

Santosh Sivan's BEFORE THE RAINS opened to a thunderous applause in New York and Los Angeles recently. The film starring Rahul Bose, Nandita Das and Linus Roache tells the story of fatal culture clash, imperialist entitlement and the forbidden passion between master and servant. Set in pre–independent era of India Santosh Sivan's true to life venture succeeds in bringing out the raw passion and emotion on screen.

Rahul Bose's performance in Santosh Sivan's BEFORE THE RAINS has wowed not only the international audience but also the critics. In fact the film finds a place of pride in the snobbish New York Times. Movie reviewer Stephen Holden of NYT writes that the film has some of the visually striking scenes beautifully photographed in the location of Kerala.

Praising Rahul Bose's performance the review mentions Rahul's character as, ''The movie's most compelling figure, the unfailingly loyal T. K. (Rahul Bose), who is instructed to violate native customs in a desperate cover–up. A stoic, taciturn man who loves his boss too much, he is a lost soul who has foolishly imagined he could keep one foot in the tribal world and the other in the modern.''

Vidya takes tuitions!

Vidya Balan is presently taking tuitions in a particular UP dialect for her upcoming film, ISHKIYAAN, which is being produced by Vishal Bharadwaj and directed by his assistant director Abhishek Chaubey.

Vishal and Abhishek who have written the script of ISHKIYAAN has the same dialect that one saw (heard) in Vishal's OMKARA (2006). When the script was narrated to Vidya first, she expressed her inability to deliver the lines fluently in that chaste UP dialect. Apparently the actress' mother tongue is South Indian and though she speaks Hindi well, she is not so comfortable speaking the rural UP lingo. Vishal and Vidya then mutually agreed upon having a special tutor for her to learn the dialect and get well–versed with the perfect tone of delivering it.

One can remember Konkona Sen Sharma (being a Bengali) too having the same problem of delivering her lines in the required UP dialect during OMKARA. Vishal had then himself tutored her for few days and gave her confidence. The film turn out as a major hit and Konkona went on to win a National Award for her character in OMKARA. Looks like Vidya might just do that!

Producer Vishal Bharadwaj's ISHKIYAAN stars Vidya opposite Arshad Warsi and Naseeruddin Shah. Vidya's character in the film has few gray shades and she is supposed to fool the uncle–nephew duo of Naseer and Arshad in it.

The film shoot begins from mid October and will be majorly shot in the parts of eastern UP and Delhi. Vidya is expected to master her command over the dialect by then.

Imran has a wild streak to him!

Imran Khan may have made a debut with a chocolate boy image but in his forthcoming film KIDNAP, which is produced by Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd. Imran plays a macho and rugged character in which he has a scene where he keeps jabbing a knife between Minissha's fingers!

Imran was required to use a fake knife for the shots. But for the close–ups, the director Sanjay Gadhvi preferred the real knife as it would look authentic! One can expect Imran to get goose pimples at the thought of jabbing a real knife with such continuity between Minissha's fingers. But it looks like Imran is quite the pro at it! He seems to have mastered the art when he was at boarding school and confesses to love doing it!!! He says, ''I love doing that and if you look at my hand closely, I still have a few scars of the days when I used to do it.''

Commenting on the scene, Minissha says; ''I was terrified. We had to use a real knife as it was a close up. Imran had assured me that I was in safe hands since he had done this kind of thing with friends while growing up. I was genuinely on the verge of being knifed during the take and I didn't have to move at all. But true to his word, Imran was a master at this and I got to see another day with all my fingers intact!''

Well, Imran's wild streak is something we are sure no one suspected him off!

Bipasha Basu ko gussa kyon aata hai?

Despite giving two hits this year in form of RACE and BACHNA AE HASEENO, Bipasha Basu is rather angry with the situation that she finds herself in. Well, it has nothing to do with her professional or personal front. The situation has arisen after her agreeing to work with new and somewhat younger stars like Ranbir Kapoor and Neil Nitin Mukesh.

It has led to a section of the media and the press asking her a lot of idiotic questions like how it feels to work with heroes younger than her. To those inquisitive and immature journos, the hot and sexy actress has one simple answer – Why don't they go and ask Aishwarya Rai how it feels to marry a guy younger to her by almost two years? She is however quick to add that despite the age gap, the couple remains one of the most happening and well loved and appreciated couples of Bollywood.

Bipasha also clarifies that she is older to Ranbir by just about a year or so and their vibrant chemistry in BACHNA AE HASEENO has come in for a lot of praise. And as for Nitin, he too is no kid and she is sure that her on–screen pairing with Neil Nitin Mukesh in her next venture, FREEZE, will also be appreciated by the paying audience.

Preity goes back to school!

Acting wise, the pretty Preity Zinta may not exactly be a (late) Smita Patil or a Konkona Sen Sharma, but she has proved her histrionic capabilities with films like SANGHARSH (1999), KYA KEHNA (2000), VEER ZAARA (2004) and recently in Rituparno Ghosh's THE LAST LEAR. But that does not stop Preity from honing her acting skills further as proved by the preparations she has put in for her role in Samir Karnik's upcoming Diwali release, HEROES.

As per sources, Preity plays a widow in HEROES and the role required her to speak with an almost perfect Punjabi accent. Now Preity is from Shimla and educated at a public school there and so despite knowing Punjabi she was not fluent in the language. Guess what the lady did? She went to a top acting school and got herself trained and tutored for the same. The results are there for all to see in the promos of HEROES, where Preity looks every inch a part of the character.

Well, seeing her commitment, we can confidently say that Preity still has a long innings to play in Bollywood!

DRONA picks up steam' heads for a win

With two weeks to go for the release, DRONA has started picking up steam at just the right time. The film is being considerably hyped and though the initial promotion had left much to be desired, last 10 odd days has shown momentum in a big way, hence resulting in an enhanced buzz.

The film's promotion has suddenly shown an impetus, something which was surprisingly missing in the early days. KIDNAP, which was releasing on the same day, was moving ahead with a relentless approach and it had seemed that the combined power of Sanju and Imran would eat away the prospects of DRONA by a large margin.

However, that's not the case anymore!

As witnessed in last 10 days, DRONA has started making its presence felt all over, whether it is music channels, magazines, newspapers, radio or the world of internet. The word DRONA is being flashed all over while the latest set of promos has ignited a newfound curiosity about watching a film. Suddenly DRONA, a film which looked like a mix–n–match of numerous special effects films from the West, has started catching on an Indian flavor with myth and reality coming together to create an exciting composition.

Abhishek Bachchan as a descendant of 'Drona' who will soon turn into a savior, Priyanka Chopra as a young woman who represents a clan and makes Abhishek aware about his real identity, Kay Kay Menon as the descendant of 'asuras' (demons) and Jaya Bachchan as Abhishek's mother – all of them have been unveiled in the promos which are blazing across entertainment channels 24X7.

With a much increased awareness being created by the makers of DRONA, one expects that the film shows an exponential increase over next 15 days. This would ensure that it not just face the huge challenge in the form of KIDNAP but also makes a huge impression for itself on it's 2nd October release.

Minissha lost in the sea?

Minissha Lamba's much talked about KIDNAP saw the actress push frontiers as far as her previous box–office outings are concerned. And we aren't just talking about her new bikini–licious body!

Everyone knows that Minissha has quite an adventurous streak in her and is quite a water baby. The schedule of KIDNAP in Mauritius involved scenes where she was required to take a dip in the sea. During one such shot, so engrossed was Minissha in her mid–sea swim that she did not realize that the currents had pushed her far from where she was supposed to be.

The film's cameraman was the first to realize that she was nowhere in the frame! The crew panicked as the underwater currents had pushed her about 2 kilometers away from the coastline while Minissha was blissfully unaware of the situation. It took the crew ten minutes to finally spot the petite actress, much to everyone's relief. A speedboat was sent to retrieve her immediately!

Director Sanjay Gadhvi confirmed the news. ''It was scary to say the least but all's well that ends well!'' he remarked.

KIDNAP is this year's grand Id attraction, being relased worldwide by Indian Films – Studio 18 on Wednesday October 1st. It is Sanjay Dutt's first release of 2008 and new–age heartthrob Imran Khan's first release after his maiden smash hit, JAANE TU YA JAANE NA. Bollywood Paradize
