Anees Bazmee’s movie No Problem is shot elaborately in Durban, Cape Town and Mumbai. Everything was designed meticulously and finalized and executed with a lot of detailing. However, little mishaps cannot be avoided even after giving attention to minutest details.
In the climax scene, the entire cast is supposed to be frantically looking for lost diamonds when a bomb explodes. The explosion is to cause a huge fish tank filled with almost 60,000 litres of water to break! Being a one-shot climax scene, things were expected to go as intended.
But by chance the fish tank exploded with much greater force causing the water to rush out with immense force and flooding the whole set. A lot of equipments including the camera were damaged. Fortunately, the reel was saved and all was restored to normal soon enough. And thus to conclude, the scene was executed superbly!
The problem turns into a No Problem!

We finally come to know that the Ranbir Kapoor chapter is totally over as Deepika Padukone has re-designed her tattoo which read RK to TMK.
She was seen flaunting her new tattoo at a social event. The tattoo was designed on the nape of her neck as a token of love for Ranbir Kapoor. The tattoo now reads TMK loosely interpreted as the initials of Tees Maar Khan.
Earlier, even after break-up, when Deepika was asked about her tattoo, she said she wasn’t embarrassed about it and would never get it removed. Not only Deepika was insistent about keeping the tattoo but Ranbir also supported her. Talking on popular TV show ‘Koffee With Karan’, Ranbir has recently said, “I have had one of the most wonderful relationships with Deepika that lasted for more than two years. It’s brave of her to keep the RK tattoo intact even after we have parted ways.”
Don’t know what made Deepika change her mind? The pretty lady is probably trying to erase away all traces of Ranbir Kapoor off her body!
This year’s most hot and sexy item numbers ‘Munni Badnaam Hui’ from Dabangg and Sheila Ki Jawani’ from Tees Maar Khan rock the chart busters. Their magic seems to be spread all over the place.
However, according to few sources, Sheila has been giving tough competition to Munni. People are up to even comparing them!
“I can’t comment as I haven’t seen the song but just heard it. Apart from both being choreographed by Farah, both are completely different songs in terms of look and music. There are no similarities otherwise. Farah has done a fantastic job on both songs. I love her work and I am a big fan of hers but Munni will always remain my favourite as it’s our (Arbaaz and Malaika) song and part of Dabangg! It’s our film and I love the song to death! Nothing is better than our film and song…. My loyalties go without saying (sic). It’s not just any song but the best and the audience liked it.” Said Malika
“Firstly, I feel there is no need for comparisons. Such things shouldn’t be taken seriously or dissected but laughed about. Also I would like to make one correction here. I am the lead actress in the film and have done four out of the five songs in the film while Malaika did Munni as an item song and a guest appearance. I’ve heard Munni and it’s fantastic. There’s no point comparing both the songs as Munni was choreographed on a set resembling a basti (slum) and was shot outdoors. It had a different rustic feel to it while Sheila is shot indoors and has a Chicago feel to it.” says Katrina
The battle heats up further as on New Year’s Eve this year, Sheila and Munni are all set to clash at different branches of the same hotel. While Malaika Arora Khan will be performing to Munni Badnaam Hui at the Sahara hotel in Amby Valley Katrina Kaif is all set to perform at the same hotel in Juhu.
Shahrukh Khan continues with his action scenes and the risks taken by the King increases.
While shooting a wild action sequence for Farhan Akhtar’s ‘Don 2’ in Berlin, SRK survived a fatal crash. According to sources, it was a car chase sequence where SRK drove rash with Priyanka Chopra beside him. However, the car went out of control and dashed onto the camera, destroying it completely.
Luckily, no one was injured. But no one could avoid the losses of lakhs as the camera was destroyed. But the courtly King apologized to all and volunteered to pay for
the damages.
This was the second time when SRK has escaped with minor injuries from a dreadful accident. Earlier, SRK managed to escape a serious crash while performing a high jump sequence in Don 2.

Anees Bazmi’s ‘No Problem’ and Yashraj Film`s ‘Band Baaja Baraat’ clash as both the films are slated for a Dec 10 release. The viewers are kept awaited in the suspense that which movie would be left in problem and which one would be welcomed with a band baaja!
“I don’t believe in lucky dates, but I do believe in commitments. We had decided to release ‘No Problem’ on Dec 10 long ago. I have three releases next year, so I needed to get the film out of the way this year,” says Anees.
“We worked at breakneck speed to finish ‘No Problem’ and announced our release date months ago. It was only later that I heard ‘Band Baja Baraat’ is coming on the same date,” added the hyperactive director.
This isn’t the fist time when we see a clash in two big-budgeted films. ‘Golmaal 3’ and ‘Action Replayy’ released on Diwali this year and one of them had to taste the ground!
Anees admitted his unhappiness with the clash. “It’s never advisable to bring two big films on the same day. If anyone, then they should move because we locked in the date first. But I think Yashraj is superstitious about the second week of December because their ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ released during the same week in 2008 and was a hit.”
“When my producer Vipul Shah decided to add an extra n in `king` for ‘Singh Is Kinng’ I told him please add one more `n` if it helps the box-office. It’s the product that matters. I know we have a fabulously funny film in “No Problem” and I am sure ‘Band Baaja Baraat’ is also a terrific film. If a clash is not avoided, then I’ll pray for both films,” Anees says as he believes in work more than luck.
Yashraj camp is in no mood for postponement and feels that there is enough space at the box office for both the films.
Sonakshi Sinha bagged rave reviews for her looks and performance in ‘Dabangg’. Sonakshi was seen with Indian looks draped in sarees in the film. However, in her next flick, she will be seen in modern dresses but the girl has already made it clear that bikini is not something that suits her.
So, when she appeared on the cover of Maxim Magazine’s Indian Edition for the month of December 2010, it was not a two piece. Yet Sonakshi managed to ooze oomph and sensuality on the cover setting the temperatures high for the season.
Sonkashi has reportedly been offered Shirish Kunder’s 3D film ‘Joker’ opposite Akshay Kumar. ‘Joker’ is slated to be India’s first state of the art 3-D project. The film is proposed to be on the scale of 3-D extravaganza like ‘Avatar’.

It was ‘Parineeta’ and her sizzling chemistry with Saif Ali Khan which gave a tremendous push to Vidya Balan’s career. Now, after a five year long gap Balan has teamed up once again with Saif for Balaji Motion Pictures’ Dream Sequence to be directed by Vishal Bhardwaj. Balan is already doing Dirty Picture with Balaji and Dream Sequence will be her second film with the company.
Initially, Deepika Padukone was to do the role but somehow there were rumors that Saif was not too keen on the role and Abhay Deol was being considered for the role. As such, Deepika opted out of the film. However, Saif decided to stay with the project after a long discussion with his Omkara director. But by then, Deepika was gone and the role fell into Vidya’s lap. Now, the three are working on the dates.
Shweta Tiwari got the cyst in one of her eyes operated before making an entry in the Big Boss house. She had no choice but to get the cyst operated immediately if she had to do her first item number in Maverick production’s film ‘One and Only’. Now, Shweta has completed the item number with Chirag Paswan which is a typical number with lines like Katto Gilheri Chamak Challo Rani…. Aasik Ko Aise Na Tadpaao Jaani. She did the item number and after two days went to Bigg Boss house. The item is the debut vehicle of Chirag, son of politician Ram Vilas Paswan.
“The item song is set in a Basti. It has been shot in a village set up in Kamalistan studios in Mumbai. The song is special because it is Chirag’s first ever song in the film industry and Shweta Tewari’s first item song. Shweta and Chirag’s chemistry has translated well on screen,” said Anuj Saxena, the producer of the film.
If the news of the dynamic duo of Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra playing the lead in the remake of yesteryear’s ‘Agneepath’ was not enough, the latest development to this story is the addition of Sanjay Dutt for the iconic role of Kancha Cheena played by Danny Denzongpa in the original version. Earlier, Rishi Kapoor was approached for the bad man’s role. But the veteran actor declined the offer following a skirmish over KJo’s talk show ‘Koffee with Karan’ recently.
Dutt is super excited about his role. However, KJo is not talking about it right now as he plans to make a big announcement soon. Also he doesn`t want Rishi to know right now that he has been replaced as Kapoor is likely to go off on another tirade against him
This remake of Agneepath is to be directed by debutant Karan Malhotra and produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions. Hrithik and Sanju shared screen space earlier in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s Mission Kashmir almost 10 years ago.
