Deepika perform high stunt for ‘Lafange Parindey’

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 03:25:28 PDT

‘long legged’ Deepika performed some high action stunts without using body double. In the movie “Lafange Parinde”, Deepika plays a tomboy, who will be seen donning leather jackets and performing some adrenaline rushing bike feats.

But Deepika’s co-actor Neil Nitin Mukesh is finding it hard to match up to her passion. Last week, while performing some high action sequels for ‘Lafange Parindey’, Neil refused when he was told to jump into a deep mud pit and asked for a body double. However, Deepika showed resilience and went ahead with the daredevil stunt.

Talking to a news daily, a close source said, “Everyone in the unit thought it was too dangerous because Deepika had to walk straight into the pit and fall into the swirling muddy water. Once she fell in the pit only professional divers could help her come out. That’s how deep the hole in the ground was.”

When enquired, Deepika confirmed the episode and said, “Yes, I did jump into the pit and I had to make it look like an accident so that the scene looked convincing. I had to do whatever it took.”

Dipika Padukon Out of Kapoor family's Party

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 01:12:28 PST

Randhir Kapoor had thrown a lavish party for the cast of Sajid Khan’s ‘Houseful’. While all the cast members were invited, Deepika was the only leading lady from the film who was kept at bay.

Deepika who had been facing the ire of Ranbir’s parents throughout their short-lived affair, is now facing the wrath from other members of the Kapoor family too.

And even though Randhir maintained that all the three ladies from the film namely Lara Dutta, Jiah Khan and Deepika Padukone, were not invited, sources confirm that Deepika was the sole actress who didn’t receive an invite.

Talking to reporters, Randhir said,” I have invited only a few friends. The girls are not in Mumbai. The dinner has nothing to do with ‘Houseful’. Can’t I have a few friends at my place once in a while?”

Nevertheless, Jiah surprised all when she stated that she was on the guest list. The stunner said, “Yeah, I know about the party. I am trying to go. But it is also my uncle’s birthday tonight and will try to go to both the places.

Salman is Actor with Writer in Veer

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 21:50:01 PST

Salman was not just the main actor in `Veer`, he was also the writer. We had a lot of differences of opinion. The way he narrated the story and the way I perceived it as a director were different.

"Moreover I brought in other writers Shailesh Verma, Shaktimaan (who wrote my `Gadar`) and Krishna Raghav. Raghav did all the research. So Salman`s story has been interpreted in the way I thought right."

He said Salman insisted that Anil watch his source of inspiration, the Yul Brynner-Tony Curtis 1962 film ‘Taras Bulba’. "But we couldn`t get a single print of the film. So I had to make do with the images that I had in my mind from childhood.

Anil admits he never wanted Salman`s favourite composers Sajid-Wajid to do the music of "Veer". "I had heard their tunes in his earlier films and I was sure Sajid -Wajid weren`t the right ones for a period drama like `Veer`. I met them reluctantly and was surprised by their understanding of Hindustani music. We worked really well together. And the fact that I could convince Gulzar saab to work with Sajid-Wajid was a stroke of luck."

Will 3-Idiot become Management Lesson

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 05:15:47 PST

Super hit movie ‘3 Idiots’ is all set to make a significant debut in several management schools now. Many institutional authorities have decided to make ‘3 Idiots’, the movie, a part of the learning experience for their students.

Though there has been a spate of suicides, attributed to the wrong message passed on through ‘3 Idiots’, teachers feel that the film has great potential in imparting some very valuable lessons on life. The authorities seem to believe that the movie can help one learn about the normal problems one faces in day to day life, and can prove to be motivational for students who feel they are stuck mid-way.

A 12-slide presentation prepared by management trainer Dr Shailesh Thaker from Ahmedabad Management Association, titled `Passion leads to excellence: Management Lessons from 3 Idiots`, is already being circulated among MBA students through a chain of e-mails.

Professor Piyush Shah of NMIMS said,"Todays, many student do an MBA as they want to earn more. The movie has something for everyone to learn from, whether it is parents, children, or professionals".

Imran and Avantika getting engaged tonight

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 21:45:16 PST

Bollywood’s most eligible bachelor Imran Khan is all set to get officially engaged to his longtime girlfriend Avantika Malik tonight. Although it’s going to be a grand celebration when the two exchange rings at Avantika’s family farmhouse in Karjat, Imran has planned to keep it as a close family affair. The actor says that he doesn’t want his engagement to be a “DRAMA”!

Well, to everyone’s surprise, Imran’s not invited anyone barring filmmaker Karan Johar for the ceremony. So not even his good friend Ranbir? “I have invited Karan, but no matter what media reports, I have not invited actors to the engagement. So Ranbir’s not on the guestlist.”

Talking to a news daily about the special day, Imran said, “We have invited 300 guests, mostly family and close friends. We wanted to keep it personal.”

As for the guest list, Imran revealed, “Aamir Khan will be there with wife Kiran, so will Mansoor (Imran’s uncle) and family.”

SALMAN used his different formet in "VEER"

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 22:51:18 PST

"Veer", slated to release Jan 22, is a story of bravery, treachery and love. The story revolves around the 18th century Pindaris who preferred death to dishonour and fought to their last breath to save their land. Salman plays the lead role.

The language has undergone a huge change. The dialogues are in contemporary language but would show that people of that time used to speak and behave like this, ust two weeks were left to start the film and we didn`t have anyone who would fit the role. We were searching left, right and centre and met her by coincidence on the set of Subhash Ghai`s `Yuvvraaj`."

Salman denies any resemblance between Zarine and his girlfriend Katrina Kaif.

"Except being fair and having a sharp nose, I don`t see any similarity between them. Give god that credit for not making two people identical," said Salman.

The film`s story has been written by Salman himself and while scripting it he was scared whether his father Salim Khan, a noted writer, would approve. "I showed the story to my father and the biggest fear was what is he going to say. But he said it`s a good story."

When asked why he chose to make a period film now, he said, "I had written the story 20 years ago but at that time it wasn`t possible to make the film. I thought now is the right time to make it, so I did."

Salman Khan says period dramas usually give the impression that people in past eras never used to laugh, but promises that his new movie ‘Veer’ will have its light moments.

HERE FERI -4 will back with new trio

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 22:27:03 PST

Super tri jodi of Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Sunil Shetty from ‘Hera Pheri’ who made the film an all time favorite with moviegoers, will not be seen in the third installment of the film that is called ‘Hera Pheri 4’. Akshay Kumar and Paresh Rawal have been replaced by Sanjay Dutt and Nana Patekar.

Confirming the news a source said, “Both actors have lost interest in the project and have made it clear they have no interest in coming together for yet another `Hera Pheri` film. Producer Firoz Nadiadwala delayed the film in the hope that he would be able to convince them to stay on, but now he has no choice but to go ahead with different actors."

A sure disappointment for the series fans but as sources state it was Akshay and Paresh who opted out of the flick. And though many believe that the move is triggered by the lackluster run of the second part at the Box Office, officially it is stated that the actors backed out, as they don’t have dates.

Well Sanjay Dutt and Nana Patekar sure have some big shoes to fill, here’s hoping they do a good job at it.

Bollywood babe Looking sexy in Saari

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 23:00:22 PST

Indian sari has tremendous personality. A slight shift in its drape or fabric can convey a brand new attitude altogether. Be it the cotton-flavoured simplicity of Nargis, spooky white elegance of Sadhana, earthy ethnicity of Shabana Azmi or the traditional texture of Rekha's trademark kanjeevarams, a sari is as versatile as it gets.

While we love the sari in all its avatars, nothing can beat its capacity to ooze oomph. Plus, considering Bollywood never-ending affair with glamour, heroines simply cannot do without the Big S to preserve their image of a larger-than-life goddess.

Only recently two of Bollywood's hottest denizens -- Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif -- stepped out in seven yards of chiffon to celebrate rain and romance opposite Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar in 3 Idiots and De Dana Dan respectively to sensational effects.

Raat Gai Baat Gai

noreply@blogger.com (sanju) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 00:48:52 PST

Raat Gayi Baat Gayi is not everyone’s cup of tea – rather glass of wine. But then again it’s not targeted towards teetotalers of cinema. This one night stand is worth indulging for some wild-wacky-wicked fun.

Rahul (Rajat Kapoor) wakes up with heavy hangover after a late night party and is unable to remember just where he ended last night. All he remembers is that he started outrageously flirting with a stranger named Sophia (Neha Dhupia) with whom he lands in an isolated room in an inebriated state. Post that his memory is almost swiped off and he’s just inquisitive to know till what extent he went ahead.

The next morning Rahul’s wife Mitali (Iravati Harshe) is not on talking terms and leaves the house without explanation. With his neighbourhood friend Amit (Vinay Pathak), Rahul visits Saxena (Dalip Tahil) who had thrown the party to explore what happened the night before.

Opening post the party, the story keeps going back to the night through frequent flashbacks and individual perspectives of the party attendees. It however doesn’t follow a hyperlinked storytelling pattern but has a more straightforward approach. Interestingly everyone in the party is hitting on someone other than their spouse and these adulterous inclinations form the crux of the plot.

The writing by Saurabh Shukla and Rajat Kapoor comprises of casual conversations from everyday life with a very slice-of-life feel to it. The scene where a tarot card is being picked and predicted over the phone is hilarious. Rajat Kapoor seems to loosely derive characters and climax from his earlier films. Like Aamir Bashir’s Prasad is parallel to Milind Soman’s character from Bheja Fry , both being ex-flames of the protagonist’s (played by Kapoor himself) wife. Also the smart twist in the climax is faintly reminiscent of Rajat’s Mixed Doubles .

The pacing at times gets slow and some party scenes tend to get repetitive. Both, the length and the writing could have been crisper. Also the film appears protracted, primarily because it revolves largely around a single conflict of learning what happened that night. Rohit Shetty’s film Sunday , too, had a similar premise though it was designed more as a thriller. Neha Dhupia’s character seems half-baked with her familial and paternal (Sudhir Mishra) ties purposely kept peripheral to the plot.

Though not as exceptionally hilarious as Bheja Fry or as deeply poignant as Dasvidaniya , Raat Gayi Baat Gayi (from the Rajat Kapoor – Vinay Pathak camp) is entertaining in its own small-n-smart way.
