Apart from the bevy of girls who are ardent fans of Ranbir Kapoor, he also has a admirer from his own family. Rajiv Kapoor is very much impressed with Ranbir. In fact he has already seen ‘Saawariya’ two times inspite of the torture he would have gone through. Even Sanjay Leela Bansali wouldn’t have dared to do so. But hear this he is planning to see it a record three times, just for Ranbir’s sake.
He keeps glorifying Ranbir at every oppurtunity and has also promised to make a film for this latest heart throb of the country.Let us refresh your memories that this kindheartedness was not shown for the rest of the siblings.Hope Ranbir brings laurels to the Kapoor Khandan. Our best wishes.
While everyone in the Khan household had celebrated New Years at Goa, Salim Khan the head of ‘The Khan’ household had decided to spend the New Years at Panvel. He remarked that there was no need to go to Goa when he had the best place on earth. So he packed his bags and decided to celebrate in Panvel with a bottle of scotch.
As for the rest of the Khan’s, they had a good time in Goa. Salman had ensured he was free for the New Years and made it a point to buy gifts for everyone including his sister Alvira and the kiddos. The kiddos are mad after their sweet uncle.
Everyone these days keeps talking about Madhuri being settled in the USA with her husband and two kids but few talk about the Marathi actress Ashwini Bhave who had also done meaningful roles in the Hindi film industry. Ashwini Bhave had starred in the Hindi movie’Henna’ which had done reasonably well at the box office.
Few days back Ashwini was in India along with her husband who is software engineer. She is settled in San Francisco along with her husband. Her husband is so supportive that he had financed the movie himself. The movie is psychological thriller in which she plays the role of a neurosurgeon. She has won critical acclaim for her acting and to add icing to the cake the movie has done quite well at the box office.
After the debacle of Aaja Nachale, Madhuri has flown back to Denver along with her family.It has surely kept her away from all the bad publicity. We fail to understand the reason for blaming Aditya Chopra for this debacle ; everyone is to be blamed as it was a team effort; so why pass the buck.If the movie would have done good at the box office Everyone would have given the credit to Madhuri ;so why not give the blame to her. It’s not fair to keep blaming Aditya Chopra for the bad script. Do you think Madhuri is a kiddo. Let us accept it that she failed to identify the weakness of the script and therefore she is blameworthy.After all it’s a team work if you take credit for success ,than you have to take the bad publicity also.
It has been rumored that for the benefit of Dr Nene Yash Raj films had got a special print with subtitles in English just for him. Such small gestures would have surely improved their PRbut but unfortunately could not save the film.
National Treasure:Book Of Secrets, is a sequel of the previous movie National Treasure. Do not go to see this moving with great expectations as the storyline is quite obsolete and predictable and that is the main problem of this film. To make matters worse the script is too confusing with too many sub plots.Due to this the viewer looses track of the story line.
As usual Benjamin Gates (Nicolas Cage) is the main hero with exceptional skills to solve riddles. The story starts with Benjamin Gates(Nicolas Cage) giving a presentation to glorify his ancestors. But he is challenged by a stranger ‘Mitch Wilkinson’ who succeeds in proving that Benjamin Gates’s (Nicolas Cage) great-great grandfather was actually involved in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. So in order to prove his family’s innocence Cage decides to solve the secret and that is the main crux of this movie. Cage in the process of solving this mystery gets access to Buckingham palace and Oval Office.As if it was not enough he succeeds in kidnapping The President of United States. When will Hollywood grow up. They think that they can show us any unbelievable stuff and we will accept it.
Inspite of all these weird things the Hindi dubbing of the movie is quite good. The cinematography is good and there are some funny moments in this film.The climax of this film is nicely shot and does manage to impress you.
Overall it could have been a great movie had their been a good script.So if you have nothing to do for the week end ; Go and watch it.
Subhash Ghai has been through difficult times lately. But it seems that his bad times are finally over.His production house is currently making top notch movies and has employed top class directors like Anees Bazmi,Abbas Mastan ,Anurag Basu and even Nagesh Kukunoor.
His latest movie Bombay to Bangkok starring Shreyas Talpade and a Thai actress has had a good opening inspite of the mediocre star cast. Ghai is currently directing Main Yuvraj with Salman Khan ,Anil Kapoor and Katrina Kaif.This hindi movie is reportedly the costliest movie from the Mukta Production house which is owned by Subash Ghai.
Subhash Ghai has already completed ‘Black And White’ a movie which deals with terrorism. The promos of this movie are quite promising and hopefully the movie will succeed in drawing the audience to the movie halls.
When our Bollywood stars are not shooting they are either busy attending marriages or shows. They charge whopping amounts to attend such programs. So who is the winner in this new profession, obviously it has to be Shahrukh Khan who is followed by Salman. But there are more surprising news, Akshay Kumar demands and gets one and half crore per show ; can you believe it guys, one and half crore for a show! Our heroines are not lagging behind either Priyanka Chopra, Preity Zinta and Kareena Kapoor get fifty lakhs for a show.
These rates are doubled for marriages and personal parties. In fact in one of the intervies Shaharukh had remarked that there is no money in Hindi movies and therefore whenever he is need of money he just goes and does a show, but he further added that to stay in business he has to do movies.
Sanjay Dutta is loved by everyone in the film industry. Recently one of his close friends declared that Alladin will not be made without Sanju Baba.We have already seen that most of the film personalities have lead their support to Sanju during difficult times.
Alladin is being made by Sujoy Ghosh and he has revealed that Jackie Fernandes will be the heroine of this hindi movie.Jackie happens to be a model and a beauty queen.The star cast is supposed to be Ritesh Deshmukh, Amitabh Bachchan and Sanjay Dutta. Sujoy has categorically said that he will never do Alladin without Sanjay. Hope we have friends like Sujoy.
It seems that Sonam has only one fear that controls her. She is very much afraid of putting on weight. Before signing ‘Saawariya’ her weight was rumored to be grand 80 Kgs. She slogged hard to get into shape and therefore she is quite choosy of what she eats. She not only orders the right kind of food for herself but also for her staff.
We only hope that she overcomes the temptations lurking around in the form of chocolate cakes and pastries which she is very fond of. So we all say yes to Sonam’s diet regime and no to calories.
It is quite evident that Big B is over protective about Abhishek and this time he has accepted it in print. He said ‘Fathers that are not over protective of their progeny have no right to be called as fathers! I am Abhishek’s father and I most definitely shall be over protective of him’. He further went on to add that he has the right to question his deeds and if required he may explain his son’s actions. With such an over protective father, Abhishek need not be afraid of anything.
Currently, Big B is working on Mira Nair’s ‘Shantaram’ in which Hollywood’s superstar Johnny Depp is also working. He has not read Shantaram, as it is quite an exhaustive book. His finished projects include Bhootnath and Sarkar Raaj. We only hope that these movies do well at box office and do not meet their fate like the forgettable ‘Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag’. Best luck Mr Bachchan.
