The latest buzz in the industry is that Katrina Kaif will not be a part of the Sohail Khan Productions’ sequel to Partner, i.e., ‘Partner 2’. The film is set to go on the floors in March-April next year and David Dhawan is sweating hard at the script. David has also been signed for another film under Sohail Khan Productions which is titled as ‘Amar Akbar Anthony’.
Sohail Khan confirmed the news when he said, “The sequel to Partner will have the same leading actors - Salman and Govinda, but we are looking for different leading ladies.”
It could be recalled here that Salman-Govinda starrer ‘Partner’ was a huge hit in 2007. Katrina was paired opposite Govinda and Salman played the Love Guru. Meanwhile, we are wondering here that does this news confirm the souring relationship between Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif?
‘Golmaal Returns’ is the sequel of the movie produced in 2006 and is funnier than the earlier one as told by director of the movie Rohit Shetty. In ‘Golmaal Returns’ Ajay Devgan, Tusshar Kapoor and Arshad Warsi are in the same cast, however Shreyas Talpade would take over the role as originally played by the Sharman Joshi in Golmaal of 2006.
Kareena Kapoor has replaced Rimi Sen in the movie and other new casts of the movie are Anjana Sukhani, Amrita Arora and Celina Jaitley. After Omkara, in 2006, Ajay Devgan is paired opposite to Kareena in ‘Golmaal Returns.’ Let’s hope everything will goes well with Golmaal Returns.
Watch some exclusive shots from ‘Golmaal Returns.’
Kareena Kapoor has dominated the gossip columns for quite sometime be it for her affair with Chhote Nawab, for her fabulous performances in her latest flicks or for her super slim figure. But is Bebo too slim to be fit?
Reports have it that Bebo felt dizzy on the sets of Rohit Shetty’s comedy ‘Golmaal Returns’ where the climax of the film was being shot in Goa this Friday. Rohit Shetty reported that Kareena was “sick and giddy” when she came on the sets and had to be given “fresh juices” before she felt fit enough to shoot her scenes.
Kareena, however, is defensive about her newly acquired super-slim figure and blames her illness on some knee injury. She stresses that she is “healthy”, “fit” and “on top of the world”.
Seems a remote truth, isn’t it?
Sooraj Barjatya, according to certain news is in a mood to make sequel to his mega hit, Hum Aapke Hai Koun…?
HAHK, starring Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit that screened on cinema halls for more than five years proved to one of the biggest hits of Bollywood. As it appears that Salman is already casted into the movie as he feels indebted to Rahshri production to give him first break as a star in Maine Pyaar Kiya and made him star overnight. HAHK sequel will also star the Vivah couple, Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao. It is not clear whether Madhuri would act in a role offered to him.
Director Mohit Suri celebrated his birthday with his crew on the sets of ‘Raaz 2’. On the occasion, the directors Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt made it clear that the film is NOT a sequel to ‘Raaz’. It has its own storyline and has nothing to do with the original one.
The film launches a fresh face Adhyayan (Shekhar Suman’s son) playing Kangana Ranaut’s boyfriend. Kangana Ranaut plays a supermodel in the movie and of course, there is Bhatt Camp’s favorite Emraan Hashmi too.
The movie shot some of its portions at Goregaon Film City, Mumbai on 11th April, 2008 which had Kangana walking the ramp.
The newcomer Adhyayan revealed that he believes in supernatural things and in real life seems to be very scary of minute things also. Adhyayan said, “The scary part of the movie for which we will be shooting is yet to come with much scary locations.”
When you have Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal teamed up with ace director Priyadarshan what do you expect next? Obviously, another rib-tickling comedy in the making.
This is what Jains of Venus are exactly doing. They have managed to rope in this entire team of ‘Hera Pheri’ for their yet untitled comedy venture. Confirming the news, Producer Ratan Jain said, “We had signed Akshay and Priyadarshan some time back. Later, Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty were also cast for pivotal roles. Yes, it’s a comedy, but let me clarify, it’s not HERA PHERI. Or even remotely similar to it.”
The film will be shot in one schedule, from September to December.
The little birdie is carrying it around that Bipasha Basu walked out of ‘Raaz 2’ because she did not want to pair opposite Emraan Hashmi. This has obviously hurt Emraan who has just returned from a 45-day schedule in South Africa for his forthcoming project ‘Jaanat’.
Emraan retorts, “Once the script is approved, we will start shooting. As far as Bipasha is concerned, it’s her creative liberty and decision who she wants to work with. My life doesn’t stop with her not being a part of my films.”
“I don’t care in the least who does Raaz 2. I am doing the film, I like my role and the film will do well with or without her!” adds the serial kisser of Bollywood.
Anyway, the actor beams talking about Vishesh Films’ ‘Jannat’, “Jannat’s tagline says in search of heaven he found hell. It’s a love story and will go down well with the youth.”
Tusshar Kapoor was busy shooting for Golmaal Returns in Goa for the past 20 days, but is now back in Mumbai and is noticeably quite leaner. You cannot miss noticing the absence of a few pounds from his already lean physique. Don’t blame it on the hectic work schedule; apparently it was his diet which caused him to lose weight. The actor was on sea food diet and ate nothing but fish during his stay in Goa.
Now that he is back home, he is obviously being pampered to some ghee and butter rich ghar ka khaana, but Tusshar is keeping a keen eye on his daily calorie intake.
Sonal Chauhan is one of those lucky few who has got what she had desired at a very early stage of her career. After entering the entertainment industry with modeling, she is now looking like a fresh new face for Bollywood.
This sexy girl has caught the attention of the Bhatts so much so that they ended up offering her not one but two movies together!
Firstly she will be seen doing an important role in the sequel of “Raaz”. This was also partly because Bips was unavailable for “Raaz 2”.
Again when Esha Deol refused to act in Bhatt’s Movie “Jannat”, the role was offered to Sonal who readily accepted the proposal!
The Bhatts have been very famous for launching many hot faces like Bipasha Basu, Mallika Sherawat and Kangana Ranaut. So is Ms. Chauhan a yet another discover by them? Only time will tell how “talented” she really turns out to be!
Kajol had worn it green for her wedding with Ajay Devgan. Now, her sister Tanisha Mukherjee gets to fulfil her passion for the zari adorned nauvaree sarees in her forthcoming movie ‘Sarkar Raj’.
Tanisha will adorn the traditional Maharashtrian nine yard sari that her grandmother Shobhna Samarth wore in her yesteryear films for Ram Gopal Verma’s sequel to ‘Sarkar’. Her mother, Tanuja, taught her to drape the sari in the same old fashioned manner like her grandma. Manish Malhotra will be designing her other costumes for the film.
She is one of the most sought after names in the modeling world. A Miss India finalist, Miss World Tourism, 2005, she has ads like Ponds and Lays (with Saif Ali Khan) to her credit. Now, the girl is ready to take a big leap. She will make her debut with Vishesh Films’ ‘Raaz 2’.
“I haven’t signed it as yet. There’s nothing on paper. Talks are going on. Verbally it is more or less confirmed but I really don’t want to comment as of now,” reveals Sonal.
When producer Mukesh Bhatt was confronted with the question of Sonal’s presence in Raaz 2, he said, “Yes, it’s right.”
Another version of ‘Devdas’ is on the way. To be directed by Sudhir Mishra and belonging to the ever-rising production house Pritish Nandy Communications, this ‘Devdas’ will have Shiney Ahuja as the lead hero and Lara Dutta as ‘Paro’.
However, the story doing rounds of Esha Deol playing ‘Chandramukhi’ is baseless as told by Pritish himself. “It’s true that Shiney Ahuja and Lara Dutta have been confirmed for the roles of Devdas and Paro. But we’re yet to cast Chandramukhi. The reports of Esha Deol being signed for the part are completely untrue.”
For the immortal role of courtesan ‘Chnadramukhi’ director Sudhir Mishra says, “I’m very keen on Soha Ali Khan. My Chandramukhi isn’t a dancer at all. She plays an investment banker. Having said that, let me tell you Soha is good dancer. Watch her in my Khoya Khoya Chand and you’ll know.”

Ramgopal Verma was bowled over by Ash’s performance and acting skills while shooting for Sarkar 2. Ash went completely makeup free for her role and stood up to the mark with father-in-law Big B and husband Abhishek in every scene and that too without much rehearsals.
Ramu openly praises the lady, “Very frankly I was wondering what she had in store considering I had never worked with her before. And considering the Sarkar sequel is a dark intense raw and real film I was apprehensive about how far Aishwarya Rai would be able to shed her immense glamour. ”
Apparently Ramu is already planning a third part to the Sarkar saga.
Kareena Kapoor’s career is going through a lull, but it seems that the actress is all set to start a new beginning.
