Shriya Saran, Anupam Kher and Tara Sharma in a Hollywood film

What do you get if you cross desi lines with a firang? Well, the answer is The Other End Of the Line. If the title doesn't 'ring' a bell, then, maybe the names of actors like Shriya Saran, Tara Sharma and Anupam Kher will, as they star in the forthcoming Hollywood film, The Other End Of the Line. Unlike the stereotyped crossover movies which deal with NRI families in the western countries, The Other End Of the Line shows Shriya playing a credit card company's customer service manager who lives in India, and like any other call-centre employee, she pretends to be American to her callers. But as luck would have it, she falls in love with an American caller played by Jesse Metcalfe (of 'The Desperate Housewives' fame). She then decides to take adventurous trip to USA without informing her parents, played by Anupam Kher and Sushmita Mukherjee. The film has its breath-taking moments when, even though, after meeting Jesse, Shriya decides not to reveal her true identity to him (Shriya tells him that she is from San Francisco). The story takes yet another twist when Shriya's parents reach States and bring her back home and our American hero is left wondering what to do next. The film is yet another love story between an Indian girl and an American boy, though it would be interesting to see how the subject is dealt with this time. This is Shriya's first Hollywood film and her performance strikes you looking at the promo. And also, there's a hot steamy kiss between the Shriya and Jesse to look forward to. The Other End Of the Line is produced by Ashok Amritraj and directed by James Dodson.

Female actors are smarter than males: Soha

Actress Soha Ali Khan, who boasts of a strong educational background and sound work experience in the corporate world, has no qualms in saying that actresses in Bollywood are smarter and more intelligent than their male counterparts. "I think the female actors are far more intelligent than the male actors. I think it's a misnomer to say that actresses are not smart and I think they are deeply in touch with emotions, " Soha told. Soha, who belongs to the family of the erstwhile Nawabs of Pataudi, attended the British School here before graduating from Oxford University. She then pursued a masters degree from the London School of Economics and Political Science. She then worked for the New York-based Ford Foundation and later joined global financial service provider Citibank. Only after that did she venture into the world of Bollywood with "Dil Maange More" in 2004. Soha, who rose to prominence with "Rang De Basanti", "Khoya Khoya Chand" and more recently "Mumbai Meri Jaan", said actresses had to be smart to manage their career and strike a balance between their public and personal life. "We do have very intelligent actresses in our country. They are all very capable, smart and managing their professions very well, " she said. According to her, it is important for actresses to be vigilant all the time due to the multiple and often complicated aspects of their lives. "There is media, glamour, travelling, managing private and public life - it's difficult and now there's a business angle to films as well. Now it's not just about the art, it's about how you package your image and how you sell a film, your choices of films - and it's all quite unforgiving. "If you make too many mistakes, there are far too many people who will be ready to do the job and you'll be replaced at the blink of an eye. I think it requires a huge amount of intelligence to be an actor, " Soha added.

Shut Up' and just look Sexy

The hot Shilpa Shetty is all set to Shut Up and Bounce. Yes that's the song of Tarun Mansukhani's Dostana that will hit the air soon. Director Karan Johar said that Tarun and he and his entire team brainstormed tossing names of actresses who would be apt for the item. "We finally zeroed in on Shilpa because she has the best body in town, " Karan said. Karan added, "Shilpa has done a fantastic job but credit also goes to choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant and music director Vishal Shekhar. Shilpa's number will be the introductory song along John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan." Tarun said, "Shilpa was comfortable wearing anything for the song. We were to shoot the song in seven day but completed in four days flat." Shilpa agreed to be a part of Dostana immediately because not only was a Karan Johar production but it also had some favourite team of coworkers like designer Manish Malhotra, Mickey Contractor for the make up and Latika for her hair. And though her bag went missing, Shilpa along with Manish shopped at Gucci and Dolce and Gabbana.

Rani Mukherjee plays a 'Sardar' in YRF's next

Yes, there have been several rumors about Rani Mukherjee's role in YRF's next directed by Anurag Singh. But the truth is finally out. Looking at the pictures above, you must've guessed by now that Rani disguises herself as a Sardar in the film. Rumour has it that Rani plays the character of a cricket enthusiast, who is obsessed with the sport, so much so that she will go to any level to play it. This obsession pushes her to disguise herself as a man and enter an all male cricket squad. Shahid Kapoor, who plays the male lead opposite Rani in the film, also seems to be a part of the cricket team. However, no official confirmation about the film's storyline has come from Yash Raj Films, hence, we'll have to wait and watch how Rani makes her way into the cricket team and how well she is at playing the sport. Also, it will be interesting to see the chemistry between Rani and Shahid onscreen since the camaraderie between the two looks marvelous in the picture above.

Salman liked my Ghajini look: Aamir Khan

Aamir Khan launched his much awaited film, Ghajini's first teaser promo amidst a media gathering at a suburban Mumbai multiplex. We caught up with the actor -director at the event. The film releasing worldwide on December 25th was earlier scheduled for a Diwali release. "It was only because of my leg injury that the makers had to postpone it to the year." Aamir told us. Aamir had not seen the promo on the big screen but had seen it many times over on the computer at the editing studio. Aamir unable to hide his excitement said, "I am dying to watch the teaser on the big screen. I want to get the same exact feel that my fans shall when they see it for the first time." After watching it first time with the media, an excited Aamir requested the promo to be shown one more time. He then even further requested to play the digital print promo in the analog format. Why was that? That's because Analog format is the one that is generally used in majority of cinema halls across the nation. How did you manage to get such an awesome physique in such a less time for this role? It wasn't an easy task. I dedicated three hours daily for it with considerable amount of time spent on doing ab crunches. I realized sometimes our body doesn't want to do the workouts but it is our mind that should be stronger to take us to the workouts. But my day was made when Salman Khan complimented me on my physique after taking a look at my Ghajini's first look poster. He liked my look. Why such a violent film? Don't you think your fans comprising mainly of females would find it appalling? No I don't think so. There is violence but it is a shot in a totally different manner. One of my main reasons for doing this film is that I was getting to act in a hardcore action thriller probably for the first time in my career. The teaser was very slickly shot but was very short Aamir. Yes perhaps that is why it is called teaser! (Laughs) Why hasn't A.R. Murugadoss been present at this event considering it is his debut film as a director? He wanted to be here but he is held up in Chennai busy working on the post production and the background score of the film alongside. Is Ghajini purposely being released on 25th December to coincide with Taare Zameen Par's release date last year? (Laughs) No nothing like that its just co-incidental. But I hope Ghajini is as bigger a success like TZP. Aamir left the event leaving everyone wanting for more just like Ghajini's first promo which is simply mindblowing and leaves you asking for more.

Banned in Pakistan, Migrating to Mumbai for Love

One more Pakistani star is making a move to Mumbai. Lahore-based Mikaal Zulfiker who has made quite an impact in England as the young closet-terrorist in Jagmohan Mundhra's Shoot On Sight, is all set to move to Mumbai in January 2009. And it's partly to do a breakup with his long-standing girlfriend Zaira Sheikh who's know as the Kareena Kapoor of the Pakistani film industry. "I'm coming to Mumbai to look for a girlfriend. I was in a relationship with Zara, a very big actress.We were known as the Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie of Pakistan. We had come to a point where we either needed to get married or part ways. When I got busy with my career we split. Showbiz relationships are very tough. " says Mikaal. Also… "Jag (Mundhra) is doing another film Room Mates a love triangle featuring me, Neha Dhupia and Sneha Ullal…have I got the actress' names right? It's an erotic thriller with lots of sexy raunchy scenes. I want to a full-on masala cinema. I've also signed a three-film deal with my Shoot On Sight producer Arun Govil." Mikaal has stopped all work in Pakistan, Another reason for quitting Lahore is the banning of his film in his country. "I'm unhappy with the way Shoot On Sight got banned. The reason given was that I was shown as a terrorist. I guess the condition in our country is such that they don't want any trouble. But Shoot On Sight states harsh facts.Initially I was hesitant about playing the terrorist. But when I went through the script about the way Muslims are seen in the world. There're so many suicide bombers who believe they're soldiers in a war. These are innocent kids who're misled and brainwashed." Mikaal is glad he did Shoot On Sight. "Sadly my friends and family haven't been able to see it. But I've seen it in England with my friends from Pakistan. Naseerji has made me his son. He has told me to stay with him in Mumbai . It's important to have a godfather in Bollywood. Ironically the only other film that I've done so far The Godfather (featuring Vinod Khanna) was released only in Pakistan and not in India. So things have evened out." Mikaal's family is all for his move to Mumbai. "It's the largest film industry in the world. So they're all for it. My father is Pakistani and my mother is English. So I'm half-gora half-Pakistani. I was born in London and I got my goraa-pan from my mom. But I am more Asian.My parents are separated. So I keep moving between Lahore and London. My sisters are in London. So I sort of identified with Naseerji's family in Shoot On Sight."
