Shortcut Romeo one step ahead of Johnny Gaddaar - Neil

MUMBAI: Things seem to be going pretty well for actor Neil Nitin Mukesh, who made his debut in Bollywood with Johnny Gaddaar. It did well at the box office and was well received by critics, too. Neil was praised for his performance and the film on the whole, with its music, proved to be one of the audience’s favourite in 2007.
Though his following films did not do all that well including films like Players and Lafangay Parindey, he has received much appreciation from critics especially for his roles in movies such as Aa Dekhen Zara, co-starring Bipasha Basu, and Jail.
The actor says his forthcoming film Shortcut Romeo, in which he plays a negative character, is a chance for him to take the hatred and vengeance of his character in the 2007 film Johnny Gaddaar one step ahead.
In Johnny Gaddaar, Neil played Vikram, a member of a gang which runs a gambling club and conducts other underhand deals. In the film, his character goes to any extent to make money.
“For the last few years, I was in search of such a script that could carry me one step ahead of Johhny Gaddaar. Then I got a chance to meet Susi Ganeshan [director]. He told me about this story [Shortcut Romeo]. Then I felt that if I had to carry forward the character of Johnny Gaddar, Shortcut Romeo is the film [for me],” Neil said in an interview.
In Shortcut Romeo, the aim of Neil’s character is to get rich in any way possible.
“Through this film, I can carry forward the look and style [mannerisms and character] of Johnny Gaddaar,” added the 31-year-old.
Shortcut Romeo is the remake of Ganeshan’s super hit Tamil film, Thiruttu Payle and also features Ameesha Patel and Puja Gupta. The film hits theatres on June 21.

My mother is my hero - Sonali Bendre

NEW DELHI:  Bollywood actor Sonali Bendre, though retired from the silver screen, is keeping herself busy raising her seven-and-a-half-year-old, while simultaneously judging reality shows like Indian Idol and India’s Got Talent. Bendre stole our hearts when she played Preeti in 1999 blockbuster Hum Saath Saath Hain and as a supporting actor in Shahrukh Khan starrer Kal Ho Na Ho in 2003.

When asked about how she does it all, Bendre says she takes inspiration from her mother. The actor calls her mom her idol for raising three daughters with very limited resources and giving them wings despite not being well-educated. She admits this kind of heroism is not that uncommon in the country.
“My mother has done a great job with her kids,” the 38-year-old actor said in an interview.
“The daily struggle of raising three daughters with a very limited income, yet seeing to it that they get a good upbringing; that person is my hero,” Bendre added.
Hailing from a middle-class family, Bendre entered filmdom through ads and later rose on the firmament with her work in Sarfarosh, Zakhm, and Duplicate.
After playing a successful innings, she tied the knot with film-maker Goldie Behl and settled down. Mother of a seven-and-a-half-year-old son, she has immense respect for women who balance their family and work.
“I had the luxury of making a choice [whether to work or not]. All women don’t have this luxury and I really don’t know how they do it [manage]. If I had to do everything on my own, I would have fallen apart,” she confessed.
“I have an immense amount of respect for women who leave their kids and go to work, because they have to. They don’t have a choice. I couldn’t have done that,” she added.
After becoming a mother, Bendre cut down on her work as her priority was to be a hands-on mother. On and off, she appears on the small screen as a judge of reality shows.
“From what I know and what I have read, the first seven years of a child’s life are very important; be it for their emotional quotient, body type, IQ or habits,” she said. “So for me, it was very clear that the first seven years of my son’s life should be good.”
Bendre is all set to come back on the silver screen this fall with Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai Again with Akshay Kumar, Imran Khan and Sonakshi Sinha.

Go Goa Gone doesn’t get banned: Saif

MUMBAI: Actor and producer Saif Ali Khan, who was seen using abusive language in Go Goa Gone, quips that he is hoping the film gets an A certificate and doesn’t get banned.
“The dialogues in the film have Russian and Hindi galis [bad words]. I just hope the film gets an A certificate and doesn’t get banned at the censors,” a smiling Saif told reporters during the film’s music launch.

When asked how his family reacted to the abusive language he used in the film he said: “My mom thought this was not the best idea I had. She was a bit concerned about the subject and the language. But my sister [Soha Ali Khan] thought it was pretty cool as her boyfriend [Kunal Khemu] is in the film.”
“As far as my wife [Kareena Kapoor] is concerned, she is supportive and she is happy with the positive response that we have received from people,” he added.
There was a live performance by the zombies at the music launch. The music of the film is given by music directors Sachin and Jigar.
Saif, who is also producing and experimenting with the zombie genre for the first time, says there is a market for everything in India.
“I had a great time shooting for this film. It was a great team and we had wonderful technicians. I feel there is a market for everything in India,” he said.
“I am glad people have liked my role in the movie but I would like to say that the film is about two friends Kunal and Vir and how the third friend joins them and what happens in Goa.”
Directed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, Go Goa Gone also features Vir Das and Puja Gupta among others. The film is scheduled to release on May 10.

Working with Bollywood is High Quality - Shiraz Uppal

LAHORE:  It is no surprise that an increasing number of talented Pakistani singers are now making their way to Bollywood. From Adnan Sami Khan and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan to Ali Zafar and Atif Aslam, it seems like  the Indian film industry is giving these singers their due credit.

Such is the case with our pop singer, Shiraz Uppal, as well. After a short hiatus last year, Uppal has now made a powerful comeback with an upcoming B-town film. He lent his voice to the title track of Anand L Rai’s upcoming movie, Raanjhanaa; the music of which has been composed by the famous AR Rahman.

Due to release on June 21, the film stars Dhanush of Kolaveri Di fame and Sonam Kapoor.

Raanjhanaa – the song
“I am very excited about the track. It’s always fun to do a song with AR Rahman,” says Uppal, who was contacted by Rahman for the title track. “I love his arrangement and composition.” For Rahman, this soundtrack silences those who were lamenting the monotony of Jab Tak Hai Jaan and Ek Deewana Tha.

Uppal shares that Rahman has always inspired him and the two have teamed up on various occasions. More recently, at the One World Peace concert held in New York, the two shared the stage with other leading artists such as Dave Mathews, Natasha Bedingfield, Philip Philips, Cyndi Lauper and others. Uppal has previously also sung soundtracks composed by Rahman for Bollywood film Nayak and Tamil movie Boys.

Uppal says that the main track, which has energetic lyrics by Irshad Kamil, is melodious with a classical touch, but is also upbeat and fresh. “He [Kamil] is one of my favourite lyricists; I really like his poetry,” says Uppal. “The song has a classical tune. Singing it was a lot of fun since I haven’t done a song which is classical and fast at the same time.”

 

 

Work in Bollywood, Uppal says that his focus will be on films and he is planning a visit to India in the coming weeks to promote the soundtrack. He feels that collaboration between Pakistan and India is a positive approach. “I think the work being done in India is of very high quality,” says Uppal. “Seeing Pakistani artists there means a lot, since it’s a big platform.”

His own focus has always been biased towards making music for films, despite the fact that he has done four pop albums, as well. “I have always wanted to make music for films,” shares Uppal. “I like to see my songs being played on the big screen.”

Uppal explains that Bollywood has shifted from traditional sounding music and has now become more experimental. He also says that experiments with music occurred in every era, but not all types of music succeed.

“The real test is whether the public accepts this type of music,” says Uppal. “The one which is accepted becomes a trend.”
“Pakistani pop music has been popular for many years,” explains Uppal, adding that music trends are changing in films. “If you look at the music being produced in Indian or Pakistani films, it’s more towards pop.”

Uppal feels that Pakistani music has always been of great standards. He also believes that the latest trend in music for Pakistani films is very beneficial for the country’s music industry. He produced the track Hona Tha Pyar for the original soundtrack of Bol and would like to do more projects like that.
“I would love to do it if someone is interested,” says Uppal. “But I don’t go out searching for work; I only work on merit.”

Veena would like to have all three Khans of Bollywood

KOLKATA:  While praising actor and nawab scion Saif Ali Khan’s sense of style, Pakistani model-turned-actor Veena Malik voiced her aspirations of working with all the three Khans of Bollywood.
“I love Saif’s sense of style. It comes naturally to him because he is a nawab. If a nawab doesn’t know how to dress up, then who will? He is a very stylish guy and I think Kareena [Kapoor] is a lucky woman,” said Malik.
“I would like a bit of Shahrukh [Khan], a bit of Salman [Khan] and a bit of Aamir [Khan]. I would go with Aamir for his acting, Shahrukh for his romance and Salman’s Dabangg style,” Veena told reporters during a media conference on Wednesday to promote her forthcoming movie Zindagi 50-50.
Zindagi 50-50, scheduled for a May 24 release, will see Veena in the role of a sex worker opposite actors Rajan Verma, Rajpal Yadav and Riya Sen. She was last seen in Daal Mein Kuch Kaala Hai.
Acknowledging that Bollywood has been generous to her, Veena said her success mantra is “quantity over quality”. “Bollywood has been very generous to me. It has welcomed me with open arms. I feel proud to be associated with it; I am working really hard.”
“I want to act in so many films, but I prefer quantity over quality,” expressed Veena. The actor is also working in film-maker Haroon Rashid’s The City That Never Sleeps.

Saif Ali Khan goes Without Makeup for Bullet Raja

MUMBAI: Saif Ali Khan has opted for a naturally tanned look instead of make-up to play a rural gangster in Tigmanshu Dhulia directed Bullet Raja.

According to a source, the actor was required to get a tanned look for his character and to achieve that the 42 year old would sit outside in his van in the afternoon.
“Saif really puts in a lot of effort to get into his character. Tigmanshu wanted a certain tanned look since he is playing a rural gangster. When Saif learned this, he decided that instead of the make-up he would sit outside his van in the afternoons to get the natural tanned look. We all told him that it was not necessary to do that as it was really scorching hot, but he did not listen to us,” said the source.
The actor went to great lengths to get under the skin of Langda Tyagi, his character in critically acclaimed Othello-inspired 2006 movie Omkara.
Bullet Raja narrative will be set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh-based mafia, and it will deal with the underworld. It also stars Sonakshi Sinha and Jimmy Shergill.

GI Joe sequel banned in Pakistan

LAHORE:  The latest installment of the Hollywood film franchise GI Joe, has been banned in Pakistan for its negative portrayal of the country, according to officials of the Central Board of Film Censors.

Officials within the censor board said there was no chance that the sequel, titled GI Joe: Retaliation would make through censors.
The film starts off with an American special security team recovering lost nuclear warheads in Pakistan, where it is attacked and framed for stealing nuclear undertones; it stars actors Bruce Willis, Dwayne Johnson, and Channing Tatum. The story also depicts Pakistan as an unstable country in which terrorists are on the verge of stealing the country’s nuclear assets.
“I wonder how anyone thought this film would pass the censor, and this is a question one should ask the importer,” said Iftikhar Durrani, the adviser on national regulation and services.
Durrani explained that the film portrays Pakistan negatively, not just on the issue of the war on terror, but also in the context of the country’s international standing.
“There is a scene which shows the assassination of the Pakistani president and the imposition of martial law, which is not a fair representation of the country,” he added.
Mohsin Yaseen, the general manager for Cinepax and the marketing manager for Footprint Entertainment, said it was expected that the film would be banned.
“We are the representing agency for the film so we, as a policy, try and see if the film could pass censors,” explained Yaseen.
“There were obviously several objectionable things which would never have passed the censors, but these things are also relevant to the content of the film.”
Meanwhile, Atrium Cinema elaborated that the film had been banned as it showed Pakistan in a negative light. “Due to initial scenes depicting Pakistan as a failed state and fictionally portraying foreign invasion of Pakistan’s nuclear installations,” the Atrium Cinemas management posted on Facebook, to the dismay of moviegoers.
All cinemas have been directed to stop screening of any trailers of the film.
Over the years, many Bollywood and Hollywood films have been banned in Pakistan due to their negative portrayal of the country and its institutions. The most recent ones were Saif Ali Khan-starrer Agent Vinod and Zero Dark Thirty, which was based on the operation: Neptune, the pursuit and killing of Osama bin Laden in his compound in Abbottabad.
Earlier, internationally acclaimed video games like Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Medal of Honor: Warfighter were banned for their controversial depiction of Pakistan and its intelligence agencies.

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard are Secretly Engaged

The couple met while shooting 2011 movie The Rum Diary and have enjoyed an on/off romance since Johnny split from his long-term partner Vanessa Paradis.

After a period apart they have reunited and were seen holding hands at a recent Rolling Stones concert. Johnny is said to have realised how much 27-year-old Amber means to him so has taken steps to prove it to her.

“He proposed on her birthday [April 22],” an insider told National Enquirer. “They’re not announcing it until the end of the year, but she and Johnny are now on the hunt for a vintage one-of-a-kind ring.”

Although the couple are thought to have been together for some time, they only recently went public with their romance. One of the reasons is said to be Johnny’s fear of hurting Vanessa, who he romanced for around 14 years and has two children with. Amber is also thought to be mindful of the situation, and wary of being cast as the ‘other woman’.

However, it was Amber’s desire for more commitment from Johnny which made him realise he needed to make some changes.

“She gave him an ultimatum, no woman wants to be someone’s dirty secret. A few months ago she took off to Paris and started dating French model Marie de Villepin. He offered her everything, even marriage, to come back,” the source explained.

“That was exactly what Amber wanted – for the world to know they’re together and for Johnny to put a ring on it. She’s had a crush on him since she was a teenager, so this is a dream come true!”
Hollywood hunk Johnny is rumoured to have quit alcohol in an effort to show Amber how much she means to him. The couple have spent time planning their life together, with speculation they would like to start a family.

“Johnny is really obsessed with Amber – she’s all he ever talks about. He’s like a besotted teenager,” a source previously said.

Imran Khan blames MQM for Killing his Party Leader

KARACHI: Cricketer turned politician Imran Khan has held the chief of Mutthaida Qaumi Movement (MQM) directly responsible for the killing of a senior leader of his party in the city.
"I hold Altaf Hussain directly responsible for the murder as he had openly threatened Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf workers and leaders through public broadcasts," Imran said in a statement from his hospital bed late on Saturday.

The statement came hours after the senior vice-president of the Sindh chapter of Imran Khan's party, Zara Yousuf Shahid was shot dead late at night outside her residence in Defence housing authority phase 4.

A senior police official said they were investigating from two angles whether it was a target killing or a deadly reaction to a robbery attempt.

Imran said MQM leader, Altaf Hussain had been issuing threatening statements against his party leaders and workers since the elections on May 11.

The killing comes one day before re-polling is held at 43 stations on Sunday for the national assembly seat of NA 250 constituency which the MQM has boycotted.

The Election Commission ordered the re-polling following several days of protests by the Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf and other parties over rigging in the constituency during the May 11 polls.
Imran further held the British government responsible, claiming that the UK had been warned to act against Altaf Hussain following open threats to kill his party workers.

Hussain has lived in London in self exile since 1993. Shortly after the incident, the MQM chief issued a statement of his own where he condemned the murder and demanded that the government immediately arrest the culprits and accord them the most severe punishment as per law.

Police said the motive of the attack on Zara could not be immediately ascertained.
SP Clifton Division Nasir Aftab said that initial findings pointed to a case of a purse snatching gone wrong.

Pakistani actress Veena Malik expressed her fondness for Indoreans and spoke to us about how she plans to set a trend in Bollywood, on her recent visit to the city.

"The moment I landed in Indore, everyone gave me a warm welcome. I was so touched by their gesture. I was pampered by Indoreans. I would like to explore this city more," exclaimed the bombshell.

Veena, who is all set to portray the role of Silk Smitha in her upcoming film, says being sexy is a part of her personality. "You can't associate me with controversies only. I want to do realistic roles. Hotness is my aura. Hot and sexy is not my image, but a part of my personality," she says.
Veena says she doesn't consider India and Pakistan as separate countries.

She adds, "For me, there is no difference between India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. I hope our ties will grow stronger in future. It is for our own betterment."

Veena, an ex-contestant of Bigg Boss, doesn't like being compared to Sunny Leone (who too participated in Bigg Boss). "Main Veena Malik hoon, jo aur koi bann hi nai sakta. Maine apna career mainstream acting se hi start kiya. Main Bollywood mein naye trends set karna chahti hoon. My dream is to work with Aamir Khan and establish a foothold in the entertainment industry."

Iraqi man marries two women in one night

 

Abdul Rahman Nayef al-Obeidi, a 22-year-old Iraqi farmer, fell in love with two women, but instead of choosing between them, he married both in one night in a small village in central Iraq.

The wedding ceremony for Obeidi and two of his cousins, Intidhar, 17, and Suad, 22, was held on April 6 at his family home in Al-Laqlaq village, north of Tikrit.

The ceremony was attended by the families of his two brides, relatives and friends, who were happy and surprised.

Obeidi, the youngest of five sons, said that he informed his parents about his plan to marry his two cousins in one night and they encouraged him, though many of his relatives were against the idea.
"It took me less than one month to make a final decision because the two families are my relatives and I love the two girls," Obeidi said.

The most important step was to persuade the two young women.
Intidhar said: "He told me, 'We will marry, me, you and Suad, in one night, so what do you say?' And I told him it is all right, if you treat us both the same way."

Islam permits men to marry up to four women, but stipulates that the wives must be treated equally.
Suad said she was surprised when Obeidi told her about his idea, but he persuaded her to go along.
Obeidi's older brother Salman played the role of mediator in the negotiations with the two families, and succeeded in making his brother's dream come true.

His father, Nayef Hamid said he feels proud of his son, although he is the only of the five sons to marry two women.

Hamid said that he is ready to support all his sons if they decide to marry twice.
Obeidi's mother, Rasmiya Mohammed too said she supported her son and did not want him to feel sad because he loves the two women.

Commentary on a picture of the married trio posted on Facebook was mixed, with men generally supporting the idea, and women against it.
"This man is a hero. There is no one who has done that before him, and this man should be put in
Guinness Book of World Records," Ali Bassi Abbar wrote.
But Sara Yasser disagreed, writing sarcastically: "Poor guy; he did not want to break one of their hearts. He is really a nice man."

Another woman, Sara Saad, criticised the two new brides, writing that, "Any woman who agrees to such a marriage does not have any sense or dignity."

Thousands of People on Road on Paris for Anti-Gay marriage protest

Parts of central Paris have been brought to a standstill as hundreds of thousands of people demonstrated against gay marriage and adoption.

Three columns of protesters, waving pink and blue flags showing a father, mother and two children, converged on the Eiffel Tower from different meeting points in Paris.

Many came after long train and bus rides from the provinces.

Organizers insist they are not against gays and lesbians but for the rights of children to have a father and mother.

Slogans on the posters and banners approved by the organisers included "marriagophile, not homophobe," "all born of a father and mother" and "paternity, maternity, equality".

Organisers claimed 1 million people had protested, while police put the number at 340,000 - high even in protest-prone France.

Patrice de Beer, a political analyst and former editor of Le Monde, observed one part of the demonstrations at close hand.

"They've been around here for three or four hours. It was very, very noisy," she said.

"This demonstration - organised by the conservative parties and the churches - is strongly against this bill.

"The main slogan I could hear from here is 'Hollande, the French president, you can stick this reform in your bottom'."

At the protest, a comedian with the stage name of Frigide Barjot called on the president to abandon his plans, noting the diversity of the crowd in opposition.

She said those against gay marriage are multicultural, multi-religious, multi-philosophical and multi-sexual.

Contentious issue

The legislative change, due this year, has become an unexpectedly contentious issue for president Francois Hollande in a country that introduced civil unions about a decade ago.

His opponents' campaign has dented public support and forced deputies to put off a plan to allow lesbian couples access to artificial insemination.

An opinion poll of almost 1,000 people, published at the weekend, suggested 56 per cent of France supports gay marriage, down on previous polls, and 50 per cent disapprove of gay adoption.

Nevertheless, de Beer does not believe the protests will be enough to make the president to back down.

"They represent a very active but small minority within the French population, which in its majority is in favour of what is called here wedding for all - which is in fact wedding for gay couples," she said.

"I don't think that President Hollande is going to change his line anyway.

"He has been in favour of this reform.

"It was one of his popular promises during his election campaign and for him it would be impossible to backtrack on this reform which is accepted by a majority of the French people.

"He would lose face right in the middle of economic and social reforms that he is trying to implement.

"He just can't afford backtracking."

Kamal Hassan's Vishwaroopam expected to earn 175 crores via digital release

Kamal Hassan’s Vishwaroopam that is set to get released over six digital television platforms all across the nation and outside is estimating to earn more than 175 crore with one viewing all across the cable platforms.

The star and co-producer of the film, Kamal Hassan has set up the goal post with each of the films that he has released, but with Vishwaroopam that is going to release just a week from now on the occasion of Pongal, he is going to redefine the paradigm of cinema viewing.

Source says, “Vishwaroopam is targeting 5% of the 50 million digital cable subscribers in the country at present, and is expected to garner more than 175 crore from this new innovative business model that Kamal Hassan has put in place. For the Tamil viewing a viewer would be charged Rs. 1000 while for Hindi viewing he would have to shell out Rs. 500. With the advent of multiplexes in India an average movie viewing outing for a family costs minimum of Rs. 1000, and to add to it the pain of traveling to the cinema halls to view a movie.”

“If one is able to view the movie within the cozy ambience of his or her home on the day the movie is being released most of the fans would try to exercise this option, and this is the segment that Kamal Hassan is trying to target. Well, the multiplex owners, obviously would not be happy at all with this initiative as it is the first three days after a film releases that determines the success of the film, and Vishwaroopam releasing on the eve of Pongal could further compound the problems for them,” Source added further.

The film is slated to hit the theater on 11 January 2013, the same day when Vishal Bhardwaj’s big venture Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola starring Imran Khan and Anushka Sharma is releasing in northern states.

Natwarlal family wants a special screening for Special Chabbis!

A few days back it was reported that Akshay Kumar’s character in upcoming heist drama Special Chabbis is based on that of notorious conman Natwarlal, who was known for his unique aliases and disguises.

The makers have also officially announced that Special Chabbis is based on the real-life daring heist dated 19-Mar-1987, where an unknown man posing as CBI officer Mon Singh recruited 26 men and executed a daylight raid on the Opera House branch of Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri in Mumbai and disappeared with jewellery worth lakhs.

Now buzz doing around says, the family members of Natwarlal have approached the makers of the film and asked them to conduct a special screening of the film for them before the release as they want to see if there is any truth to the speculations that Akshay’s role is inspired by Natwarlal. A source adds, "They were completely surprised to read about the film in the news.”

"Akshay will be seen using a lot of aliases in the film. His character is the master of disguises and uses novel ideas to dupe people. And like Natwarlal, he too cheats industrialists and rich people," adding source said, "If you make a film on a conman in India, you're bound to be inspired by Natwarlal."

The film which is a direction of Neeraj Panday, stars Kajal Aggarwal, Jimmy Shergill, Manoj Bajpai, Anupam Kher apart from Akshay and will release on February 8, 2013.

Veena Malik Switched to reading Bhagavad Gita for Peace

Religion indeed plays a vital role in everybody’s life. It depends how people relate to it. Bollywood actress Veena Malik has started her New Year seeking solace in God.

Recently she was seen reading Bhagavad Gita on her set.  While being a Muslim she has no boundary or limit for any religion belief. Veena was shattered with the heinous Delhi Gang rape and was seen seeking a truthful path of Bhagavad Gita to get a justice for innocent girl. She is currently preparing for her upcoming movie The City That Never Sleep, which is produced by Satish Reddy and directed by Haroon Rashid.

Veena said, “While reading Bhagavad Gita it makes you feel relax and subtle. It shows you the spiritual path which seemed very difficult for human beings but fixed your goal in life. I feel like there should be no boundaries in believing or having faith on other religion. I read Quran daily offers Namaz because I have a faith on him and after reading Bhadavad Gita I can say that there is no difference in any religion they all shows the right path”.

Reading Bhagavad Gita is not an easy job as it was in Sanskrit but this didn’t stop Veena from reading it. “Religion is a collection of belief systems, cultural systems, and world views that relate humanity to spirituality and, sometimes, to moral values. They tend to derive morality, ethics, religious laws or a preferred lifestyle from their ideas about the cosmos and human nature”, she added.

Well, we appreciate your thoughts!
