Katrina Kaif With Aamir Khan in Dhoom 3

2012-01-18T10:13:00.003-08:00

After an extensive hunt for a new face to star opposite Aamir Khan in 'Dhoom 3', the film makers have finally decided on actress Katrina Kaif to play the female lead in the upcoming sequel of the blockbuster series.

Yash Raj Films made the announcement today after director Vijay Krishna Acharya (popularly known as Victor), and producer Aditya Chopra decided to go with the leggy beauty.

"After almost a year of searching for a new face for 'Dhoom 3' we were still unable to find the perfect debutant to play the lead role. We even reached out to international talent but were still unable to find someone who stood out. Both Adi and I really wanted to be sure that the person we chose would be perfect for the role," Victor said in a statement. "Once we decided to go with a known face and not pursue the new-comer route, Katrina was the obvious choice for all of us. She is someone who we all know will bring tremendous enthusiasm and commitment to the film. The first time pairing of Aamir with Katrina will also certainly add value," he said.

The theme of the 'Dhoom' series centres around thrill, action, bike chases, handsome thieves, smart and daring stealing plans. After the success of 'Dhoom' (2004) and 'Dhoom-2' (2006), there is much buzz in B-town regarding the next sequel. Aamir would be seen as the baddie in the film while actors Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra would be continuing with their famous pair of 'Jai' and 'Ali'.

2012-01-16T11:32:00.000-08:00

Aamir’s gift to Salman Khan !

2012-01-01T10:56:00.001-08:00

Aamir Khan was a painter in his film Dhobi Ghat. He also essayed the role of an arts teacher in Taare Zameen Par. But is he a good painter off screen??

Say’s the actor, “Painting, like singing, is something I really enjoy doing. Though I do it badly.”

“I love singing, it puts me in a good mood. It disturbs the hell out of everyone around me, but it makes me feel very happy… painting also. I have realised that I am really a bad painter but when I am painting, I get so engrossed and I feel as if I am making something like a Picasso,” added the 46-year-old.

It seems, while shooting for Dhobi Ghat, Aamir completed a painting and gifted the same to his close frined, Salman Khan.

“The one painting that I have done in my life is on the sets of Dhobi Ghat, while they were lighting up, I did a full canvas and presented it to Salman. So, it’s in Salman’s house,” Aamir Khan said.

When Kareena said NO to Angelina !

2012-01-01T10:47:00.001-08:00

Madhur Bhandarkar wanted Kareena Kapoor to watch Angelina Jolie’s award-winning TV film, Gia (1998), to prepare for her role in his upcoming project ‘Heroine’.

However, the actress wasn’t very keen with Bhandarkar’s idea and immediately refused to do so.

Says an insider, “He wanted Kareena to watch Gia because of Angelina’s performance. Although Bebo understands the character, the idea was to help her get a tighter grip on the intricacies. But she wanted to keep things natural.”

Confirming the news, Kareena said, “Yes, Madhur said, ‘watch Gia and look at Jolie’s performance.’ But I told him to let me get into Heroine completely blank; I asked him to guide me. I don’t want to take on performances of other actors. I want to play the role like I essay other parts — in a natural way. I don’t want to prepare for it.”

Kareena Kapoor recently got done with the first schedule of Heroine. The second will start in Feb 2012.

Salman spoils Sanjay’s New Year plans !

2012-01-01T09:47:00.001-08:00

Work commitments have thrown a spanner in the holiday plans of Sanjay Dutt. The star along with wife Maanayata and twins Shahraan and Iqra left over the weekend for a vacation in Bali.

But now he has been summoned back for a special shoot on December 31 for the reality show he hosts. As co-anchor Salman Khan has kept himself away from the shoot, Dutt has no way out but to return by December 30.

Says a source, “Sanjay had planned the family trip around Christmas and had planned to return only after January 1. He waited for his flick Agneepath’s trailer launch on Friday and the show’s shoot on Saturday and planned his departure only after these events.

But the makers of Bigg Boss planned a special episode shoot on December 31 and the channel authorities requested Sanjay to be present for it. He decided to return on December 30. He will fly in a chopper to Karjat on December 31 for the special episode shoot.”

Last year, Salman who was in Dubai for his birthday (December 27) as well as New Year celebrations had flown into Mumbai in the wee hours of December 31 to shoot for the episode and returned to Dubai in the evening.

But this time, the star who is slated to be in the desert Emirate again is in no mood to fly down for the shoot.

Dirty Picture continues to overpower new releases !

2011-12-27T11:10:00.004-08:00

While the new releases 'Pappu Can't Dance Saala' and 'Jo Hum Chahein' remained dull at box-office, 'The Dirty Picture' continued to mint money even in its third week.

Both releases of this Friday have failed to set the cash registers ringing. And like we predicted last week, this could just be the lull before the storm - with Don 2 releasing next week. Vinay Pathak seems to be losing his USP in the small-budget independent cinema zone with most of his recent releases from Bheja Fry 2, Chalo Dilli, Tere Mere Phere biting the dust. Pappu Paas Ho Gaya is no exception. While the film starts off interestingly, it loses track in second half. Vinay Pathak hasn't been able to revive the magic (and success) of Bheja Fry or Dasvidaniya.

The other release Jo Hum Chahein starring newcomers Sunny Gill and Simran Kaur Mundi (ex-Miss India) lacked face-value. And so boring was the film that a poor opening was inevitable.

Both the earlier week's release Ladies vs Ricky Bahl and The Dirty Picture earned around Rs 5 crore. But while The Dirty Picture earned it in its third weekend, Ladies vs Ricky Bahl earned that in its second weekend. Thereby Vidya Balan's film is clearly overpowering all other recent releases and continues to mint money.

Now all eyes are set on Shah Rukh Khan's Don 2 which released this Friday. Expectations are huge from the film and Don 2 should ideally bring the year 2011 to an apt end.

Don 2: Highest first day collection for a non-holiday Friday !

2011-12-27T10:48:00.001-08:00

Don 2 has collected Rs 48 crores in its opening weekend. However the PR mechanism is trying to devise new tags just to showoff that the film is breaking new records.

The year 2011 has come to an end with Shah Rukh Khan's Don 2, amongst the most anticipated releases of the year. One cannot exactly say that Bollywood in 2011 had 'saved the best for last' with the extreme response that the film has received. Audience response varies from awesome to awful for the film.

Nevertheless the buzz around the film was huge and the SRK flick opened to very good collections. The film collected around Rs 48 crores over its opening weekend. Dubbed versions in Tamil and Telugu helped the film do business in South territories as well. However with diverse response to the film, the same cannot be said about the film's business in coming days and it's uncertain whether the film will enjoy a decent run in its second week, despite no good opposition.

An interesting thing to notice (taking Don 2 as a study example) is that with every new film, the PR mechanism tries to devise new tags to illustrate the film breaking new records, (esp. when the film fails to break any real records). So Don 2 wins the tag for the 'highest first day collection on a non-holiday Friday'. Or sample this 'Don 2 broke the record of Bodyguard in Australia for the highest first day gross ever for a Hindi film (US$ 82,000) while Bodyguard managed (US$ 74,000)'.

If nothing else works, it can take credit of outdoing the business of Shah Rukh's earlier films. As per official figures revealed 'Middle East has grossed ($ 930,000 on Thu & Fri which is higher than the first two days of Ra.One (US$ 710,000) and My Name is Khan (US$ 750,000)'. 'In US, the opening day gross of Don 2 (US $ 445000) is higher than that of My Name is Khan and also higher than the sum of the first three days of Ra.One!'

John Abraham to marry Priya Marwah in August 2012 ?

2011-12-26T09:32:00.001-08:00

Well, 2012 will see many Bollywood A-listers couple tying the knot. Riteish-Genelia and Saif-Kareena are almost confirmed and the new name that has come into forefront is John Abraham, Bollywood’s most handsome hunk. According to the latest buzz, John is contemplating marriage in August 2012. He will get engaged in April and marry in August.

Now, the million dollar question is who that lucky girl is and if we go by the report she is Priya Marwah, an investment bank by profession. After splitting-up with Bipasha Basu, John is spotted with Priya during an event. Though the hunk did not speak anything about his life partner, Priya is highly speculated to be his ladylove.

A source close to the actor said, “The mistake John made in his previous 10-year-old relationship [with Bipasha Basu] was to wait too long for marriage. John has realized that the more a relationship lingers without marriage, the less are the chances of it happening. He is therefore taking the plunge without any further ado.”

“Also when John`s brother got married two years ago, John was heard telling his friends that this is the life that he always wanted for himself,” the source added.

John broke-up with Bipasha on this very issue. John had a marriage phobia, but now he had overcome it and desperate to sink into marital bliss.

All the best John!

I was a kid when I used to watch Vivek’s films and today, I have a good opportunity to work with him. I’ll try my best to entertain with KLPD. I am really excited.”

Sequel for Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster On The Way !

2011-12-26T08:58:00.001-08:00

There’s no denying that SAHEB BIWI AUR GANGSTER was one of the best films of 2011. Enthused by the tremendous response to the film, Tigmanshu Dhulia is now attempting its sequel, which is titled SAHEB BIWI AUR GANGSTER RETURNS. Now here’s the latest on this film.

Though Randeep Hooda’s character in the first part was shown as dead, the actor will be an integral part of the sequel. Also, besides Jimmy Shergill and Mahie Gill, SAHEB BIWI AUR GANGSTER RETURNS will have an additional lead actor and actress enacting pivotal roles. “We are in the process of finalizing the names,” Tigmanshu says. The scripting of the film is underway and is expected to begin filming in February next year.

Delay in Heroine Movie Due to Saif Ali Khan - Kareena Kapoor Wedding?

2011-12-26T08:46:00.001-08:00

His first Heroine (Ash) was expecting a baby and had to go on maternity leave, temporarily halting the shoot of the film. And now Madhur Bhandarkar’s lead actress is getting married, which again alters the plans for his ambitious project. Mumbai Mirror has learnt that even before the current schedule of Heroine can end, the second leg of the shoot has been rescheduled as Kareena is to wed her beau Saif Ali Khan around the same time. A friend of the director revealed to us that the second schedule, initially slated to start from the end of January, has been pushed ahead to the middle of February.

The film’s producer Siddharth Roy Kapoor of UTV, who had announced last week that the next schedule of Heroine was to commence “from the end of February to April-May” and then later stated the change in the filming dates, refrained from divulging any further details. When contacted, Bhandarkar also confirmed the change in schedule, saying, “Yes, the second schedule of Heroine will now start in the middle of February instead of the end of January.”

Bhandarkar’s friend explained, “The idea is to complete the second schedule by the middle of March instead of the end of April, so that Kareena can attend to her wedding and personal life in March and April before she returns to work in May.”

According to the director’s friend, Kareena was reluctant to take a break in the middle of the schedule for her wedding. “There is a reason why this decision has been taken. The plan is to complete the schedule, so that Kareena’s performance remains consistent and doesn’t lose the intensity the role demands amidst her wedding plans. This way she gets to enjoy her wedding and honeymoon, before resuming work,” added Bhandarkar’s friend.
