Sonu Sood’s ‘little thank you to Michael Jackson’

He’ll be seen dancing as a don

Actor Sonu Sood recently shot for a song in Bangkok for Puri Jagannath’s movie which will be a tribute to Michael Jackson. It was an extensive shoot spanning 5 days on different locations in Bangkok.

"It was a great feeling to shoot for this song which is a tribute to Michael Jackson. It reminded me of my childhood days when we used to go out to buy his albums and dance to them and practice his moonwalk moves. This song was shot for Puri Jagannath's movie and it will be very special to me always... a little thank you to Michael Jackson from my side," says Sonu.

The actor plays a mafia don in this movie. It will be interesting to see a don put on the dancing shoes and do the “Thriller”.

'Love Aaj Kal' is beyond expectations for me

Deepika says film fascinates her for three reasons

Since the release of "Om Shanti Om", Deepika Padukone has been seen in two more films - "Bachna Ae Haseeno" and "Chandni Chowk To China". But the leggie beauty insists that if at all there is a special movie after her debut vehicle, it has to be "Love Aaj Kal".

"I'm aware of the huge expectations that audiences have from 'Love Aaj Kal'. Personally speaking though, the film is beyond expectations for me. I would rather call it a very special film," Deepika told IANS on telephone.

"We all have worked so hard on it, whether director Imtiaz Ali, Saif (Ali Khan) or myself, and we have become really attached to it," said Deepika who is currently in London shooting for Sajid Khan's "Housefull" where she is paired opposite Akshay Kumar.

"Love Aaj Kal" is releasing on July 31 and she is excited about the film since it is as real as it gets.

"This is why I said that after 'Om Shanti Om' if there is a film that has been really special, it is 'Love Aaj Kal'. I can state three reasons why 'Love Aaj Kal' really fascinates me.

"First, the film's storyline is such that any common man can relate to it. It's so real and, as you watch the film, you would feel that so many instances shown in it have happened to you too in real life.

"Second, the film has a universal appeal. Whether it's the younger or the older generation, all will be able to identify with the proceedings. Imtiaz has a knack for keeping things basic and very simple, something that the world saw in 'Jab We Met' and 'Socha Na Tha'. His trademark touch is prevalent in 'Love Aaj Kal' too."

The third reason for Deepika to be really ecstatic after shooting for "Love Aaj Kal" is the dialogues that promise to be as natural as they get.

"Dialogues are such that they are more of conversational variety rather than sounding scripted. Imtiaz wanted all of us to perform rather than plain and simple mug up our dialogues and rattle them down. Yes, there was a dialogue sheet given, but it was mainly for reference," she said.

It was this freedom factor that really impressed Deepika. "There was nothing cast on stone and we actors were given a free hand to mouth dialogues that came naturally to them and suited the film's situation most. I guess this was one aspect that really made me open up a lot more during the film's shoot."

With Rishi Kapoor and Rahul Khanna in pivotal roles and Neetu Singh making a guest appearance, "Love Aaj Kal" is Saif's first home production with Pritam Chakaraborty's music already topping the charts.

Preity to host a television show

It’s said to be sports-based

Even though everything is being kept under wraps, if reports are to be believed, Preity Zinta is set to make her television debut and is negotiating with a leading production house to host a sports-based show.

Preity too is refusing to talk anything about the show as the matter is still in discussion stage and she has not yet signed the deal.

However, speculations are rife that the show will be a game-based concept and Preity will be inviting her celebrity friends from the industry and also cricketers from her Kings XI Punjab team.

Unreasonable criticism depresses Kareena

But Saif keeps her ‘happy and smiling’

Kareena Kapoor admits she gets upset when uncharitable remarks are made about her or her performance. Though the actress doesn't mind healthy criticism, she isn't amused when comments are made without any provocation or reason.

"I have realised over a period of time that the higher you go, more and more people will try to pull you down. I used to hear about this from my sister (Karisma) but am experiencing this first hand now. It isn't really funny actually," Kareena told IANS.

Kareena was obviously referring to a section of the media coming down heavily on her since the release of "Kambakkht Ishq" (pictured left).

"Well, the movie has released, done well and it's time to move on to newer things. Critics had things to say about the film and it's okay if they didn't like the film. In any case, audiences had their own take on the film and they made the film a success. It's all balanced out at the end of the day," she said.

Some critics did feel that the "Kambakkht Ishq" content was too abusive at places.

"That continues to beat me," she said in an amused tone. "Come on, it was just a movie. We were not developing any rocket science there. However, I guess some people did take it all personally and equated 'Kambakkht Ishq' to World War III," said Kareena.

She can't be immune to criticism though, isn't it?

"Yes, I do tend to get upset and depressed when people try to pull me down. Sometimes it just comes from nowhere and you end up feeling that what did you really do so wrong to be facing such criticism.

"But then I understand that there could be a phase in one's life when you get attacked from all corners. It's fine because I know it will pass," said the actress who is looking forward to the release of "Qurbaan" before year-end.

She is happy though that she has a loyal set of friends, family members and supporters around her who help her keep her chin up.

"And then of course there is Saif," she perked up. "He has been around for so long and keeps me happy and smiling. Yes, there are detractors, but then there are supporters as well. After seeing Bollywood business closely for so long, I try not to take things too seriously."

Her "Tashan" didn't do well at the box office, but Kareena has had impressive releases over the last few years like "Omkara", "Jab We Met", "Golmaal Returns" and now "Kambakkht Ishq" doing well at the box office. In between, she also had a special appearance in another box office winner "Don - The Chase Begins Again".

"Yes, thankfully it has been a nice run. I'm now really looking forward to 'Qurbaan', 'Main Aur Mrs. Khanna' and '3 Idiots'."

Shahid’s Dhan Te Nan moment

Vishal Bhardwaj’s brilliant composition Dhan Te Nan has taken the nation by storm. The lead actor of Kaminey, Shahid Kapur on whom the song is picturised, tells us about the time he first heard the song.

“Vishal looks very shareef, but actually his looks are deceptive. After all he has written Kaminey; the screenplay and dialogues. Fortunately, he has only given the dancing category to someone else otherwise he would have got all the credits,” laughs Shahid.

Talking about the phenomenal song, he says, “One day Vishal called me to the studio. He has a very quiet manner. He asked me to sit, make myself at home and offered me tea and coffee. Then he requested me to listen to the new song he had composed and give my opinion on it,” recalls the actor. He continues, “So I took the headphones, the song started playing Dhan Te Nan and I almost fell of my chair. I couldn’t believe the same guy had made such a powerful song. I really loved it when I heard it.”

Jab We Met had Mauja Mauja and Nagada Nagada, Kismat Konnection had Aai Paapi and now Kaminey has Dhan Te Nan. All the songs have been super hits and make for great dance tracks. Shahid Kapur is one of the best, most fluid dancers in the industry.

So, what does dancing mean to him? “I think I started dancing because I loved it and enjoyed it. I was born in 1981 and Michael Jackson was huge at the time so I danced to his songs. Apart from that it has become a part of my job and it’s important for me to know the technical aspects. Essentially I enjoy dancing. I think dancing is a hugely creative art form and you can express so much through it,” concludes the adorable actor.

Akshay, 30-crore hero, economises

Since Akshay Kumar pays all his taxes diligently it is safe and secure to state that his market price is Rs 30 crores per movie.

But he’s also aware of the recession around him. When therefore his wife and child flew in to London to join him earlier this week, Akshay insisted on paying for their air tickets.

Says a source, “Producer Sajid Nadiadwala insisted it was a very small amount and part of the crew’s travel expenses. But Akshay insisted. He won’t burden his producer with extra expenditure at all, though he will charge his market price.”

Confirming this price a producer says, “Akshay does charge Rs 30 crores. No doubt about it. But beyond that there are no extra costs at all. Akshay pays for the expenses that occur during shooting.”

In fact our 30-crore hero who has just delivered another success Kambakkht Ishq decided to economize for the same producer when they reunited for another film Housefull in London this month.

Instead of putting up at the posh St James Hotel where Amitabh Bachchan and other A-listers from Bollywood stay when shooting in London, Akshay chose the posh but nevertheless far less expensive Hotel Cumberland although the producer insisted Akshay stay at the more expensive place.

Says Akshay, “No, I always prefer to stay with the rest of the unit. It always creates a feeling of unity among the crew. In fact my wife and son have just joined me in London. They’re staying at Cumberland with me.”

Apparently Akshay also paid Twinkle and Aarav’s airfare from his own pocket, refusing to let his harried producer bear a bit more of the ever-mounting expenses.

Says Akshay, “Sajid is an old friend. And even if he wasn’t I know exactly how difficult it is for a producer to keep the budget in check. During all the years that I’ve been in the industry I’ve observed what a thankless task it is for producers to meet up the demands of the project and the people involved with the project.”
