Salman Khan gave a superhit to Bollywood with his last flick ‘Bodyguard’. At present, he is shooting for ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ in Cuba. After the complete of this shoot, Salman Khan will head for US to get medically checked up for Trigeminal Neuralgia for which he underwent a surgery last year.
Once he gets over with all this, Salman will start the shoot for ‘Dabangg 2’ where he will once again play Chulbul Pandey and this time Chulbul’s character will acquire a higher notch in corruption. His base will be Mumbai this time and not Lalganj.
The sequel will be directed by Arbaaz Khan and this time the negative character will be played by Prakash Raj (Singham and Wanted fame) and not Sonu Sood. Other characters will be the same with actors Vinod Khanna (as Chulbul’s father), Arbaaz Khan (as brother) and Sonakshi Sinha (as his wife and love).
When Pooja Bhatt revealed the first look poster of her ‘Jism 2’ with a nude girl under the wet white sheet, she chose to keep the name of the girl under wraps. However, now the Bhatts have decided to reveal the name of the mystery girl and as anticipated, it has now finally come out that the girl is none other than Sunny Leone herself, the leading lady of the film.
“Sunny Leone is the heroine of Pooja Bhatt’s ‘JISM 2′. Now watch this brave girl unfold her soul and rise higher and higher,” Bhatt wrote on his Twitter page.
Sunny, on the other hand too, is excited about her debut in Bollywood. “Hey everyone! So excited to be working on ‘JISM 2′. Remember to follow @jism2 to get all the movie news first, ” Sunny, whose real name is Karen Malhotra, tweeted.
The makers of the film have also revealed through this social networking site that they need two male protagonists for the film and are looking for them.
“While my dream that is #JISM2 comes closer to realization with @sunnyleone my nightmare with regards to casting my two leading men begins,” Pooja posted.
“Finding one ‘man’ in this business is tough enough and we need to cast two in #JISM2! I suspect strongly that it is masochism that drives me,” she added.
Pooja Bhatt has let out the first poster of her ‘Jism 2’ and given by the looks of the poster, the cinegoers are left with no doubts about what to expect from the film. However, though the people in the industry are linking the two events of the eviction of the film’s leading lady Sunny Leone from ‘Big Boss’ and the release of the poster, Pooja Bhatt is still shying away from revealing the identity of the girl in the poster.
But smart Bhatt girl, Pooja is definitely against letting out the secret. “I ain’t letting my secret out.” And as far as the poster goes, Pooja says that since there was so much speculation, they decided to put a little teaser in place. Another surprise in film is that it would cast two male actors.
After ‘Ra.One’, Shahrukh Khan-starrer ‘Don 2: The King is Back’ is also being launched as a video game with Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar of Excel Entertainment joining hands with Ganeshshastra and Mango games, two leading gaming companies in India.
“I feel gaming is a good platform to tell stories of a film and about the characters through this medium. Today, gaming is a biggest platform. They make games according to films. I hope more and more films make use of this growing platform,” Shahrukh Khan said.
Ganeshshastra has developed a game where players can get to play Shahrukh’s character and do action sequences similar to those enacted in the film. The game will be launched in March next year. The other game, developed by Mango Games, will be launched on Facebook on December 23, the day the film releases in cinema houses.
Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, director Farhan Akhtar, Producer Ritesh Sidhwani and Sahil Shroff) were present at Oberoi mall for Don 2′s game launch. Check out a few clicks from the event….
Shaurya Chauhan is not a new name in the glamour world. The girl who set the pulses racing with her Kingfisher Calender shoot in 2006 and yet another hotter ad for a shoe company where she posed with the male model wearing nothing and was seen wrapped in a muslin sheet, is quite well-known for her bold and spicy image, courtesy her hot photo shoots and bikini shots.
She has worked as a TV host and made a debut in Bollywood with ‘Mumai Salsa’ in 2007 and is currently working in a film titled ‘Sadda Adda’. Now, Shaurya finally lands up with a role which could change the course of her career.
She has been chosen by producer Rakesh Rsohan to play a negative role in ‘Krrish 3’. The role requires a glamorous and sexy babe and Shaurya just perfectly the shoes. The film also stars Kangana Ranaut, Priyanka Chopra and Vivek Oberoi, besides of course Hrithik Roshan.
After Emraan Hashmi, Hrithik Roshan seems to have emerged as the new kisser boy of our tinsel town. He has already locked lips with Aishwarya Rai, Barbara Mori and Katrina Kaif and going by the newly released stills from the forthcoming ‘Agneepath’, the actor seems to have shared some intimate scenes with Priyanka Chopra as well, which could include some smooching scenes too.
The images from the movie have Hrithik and Priyanka almost come within a whisker of locking lips. Whether things go a step ahead or not, will be clear only by the January end when Agneepath, produced by Karan Johar, will hit the theatres.
Here we have Priyanka Chopra from Agneepath and also on the cover of Vogue Magazine’s Indian edition for the month of December 2011.
Perfectionist Aamir Khan needs to be swift and crisp in his movements and stunts in his next project ‘Dhoom 3’ where he plays a negative role opposite Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra. Given the fact that Aamir plays every character with perfection and depth, he has decided to learn a French technique called Parkour, which is a method of moving around obstacles with speed and efficiency. Parkour trains people to move through their environment by vaulting, rolling, running, climbing and jumping.
Parkour is not a new technique for Bollywood. Actors like Shahid Kapoor has used it for Mausam, Hrithik Roshan used it in Krrish, Akshay Kumar used it in Singh is Kinng and Chandni Chowk to China, Vivek Oberoi for Prince and Imran Khan for Kidnap.
Whenever some mega project gets geared up to hit the screens, some legal problem seems to crop up from nowhere. This time the makers of ‘Don 2’ have run into a legal trouble over a copyright issue.
The production house Nariman Films (known for producing the original Don movie starring Amitabh Bachchan in 1978) has charged Excel Entertainment (owned by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Deshmukh) that their agreement and copyright to remake the original Don movie expired in 2009 and has not been renewed. Another charge by Nariman films is that the title had been registered as ‘Don 2 – Return of the King’ and since the posters of Don 2 claim ‘The King is Back’, it is yet another infringement.
Nariman Films has sent a legal notice to Excel Entertainment and they intend to approach the courts to halt the release of Don 2 on December 23.
Excel Entertainment, on the other hand, claim that Don 2 is a entirely new story and concept and has hence nothing to do with the original movie.
SRK had tried every possible move to promote his ambitious project ‘Ra.One’ and with the film doing fairly well this Diwali, the actor has now his eyes set on his next mega project ‘Don 2’. SRK’s Twitter account is all about ‘Don 2’ these days and he tweeted to Priyanka Chopra praising her feminity as “thanx Roma, here’s to ur beauty, ur voice, all those things & happy mood swings. please please keep me as ur songwriter. lov.”
Priyanka Chopra, who plays the female lead, Roma, in Don 2, has made her presence felt in the first look poster of the flick where she looks sensuous as she sits cross legged with SRK. Priyanka is at present in US busy recording her debut album and will return to India only to start the promotional campaign of Don 2.
Check out the new poster of ‘Don 2’…..
In her short career span, Kangana Ranaut has carved her niche in Bollywood and has given us some very memorable flicks. Now, the actress is all set for yet another challenging role of a superwoman in Rakesh Roshan’s ‘Krrish 2’.
Kangana had always been the first choice for this role, but she had turned down the offer initially because of the date problems. However, with the shooting of Kangana’s film Dedh Ishqya postponed to early next year and with the shifting of the Krrish sequel’s shoot to December this year, Kangana was all too happy to accept the role. It may be mentioned here that this role has been turned down by Chitrangada Singh and Jacqueline Fernandez.
However, Kangana is super excited about the same and will undergo rigorous training including intense martial arts programme.
Milan Lutharia’s forthcoming and much talked about ‘The Dirty Picture’ starring Vidya Balan is on the verge of completion and the director is now focussing his attention on his next which happens to be the sequel of superhit ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbai’ and has Akshay Lumar in the lead. Akshay plays the role of Dawood Ibrahim. Milan Lutharia says, “The latter promises a different take on the underworld. Unlike the original, it’ll show the romantic side of underworld in a big way.”
The sequel will stress less on violence and will have more of love and romance in it. Apparently, Kareena Kapoor is being considered to play Akshay’s love interest in the film. The film was unveiled by Akshay Kumar at Gifth Awards this May.
Since the time Hrithik Roshan’s ‘Krissh 2’ has been launched, there has been a shuffling of names for the second female lead in the flick. After Kangana Ranaut and Sonakshi Sinha, Chitrangada Singh was finalized for the role. Later, she backed out on account of some date problems and was replaced by Jacqueline Fernandez. Now, it seems that Fernandez too is not happy with what the role has to offer for her and the next name to pop up is the Kingfisher girl Esha Gupta.
Esha, who is often called the desi Angelina Jolie, has scorched the pages of Kingfisher calendars and will be making her Bollywood debut in Vishesh Films’ next project titled Informer. Director Kunal Deshmukh is all praises for Esha and feels that she is just suited for the role, which is of a bindas typical Delhi girl. Kunal says, “The character is slightly teekhi, muhphat, she isn’t the type to sit back and is used to being heckled by men. That’s our character, and Esha fits in well.”
