With the trade vouching for him as one of the most saleable stars in the industry today, Emraan Hashmi aka Hitman Hashmi has proved yet again that he is the “darling of the masses” .
Says acclaimed critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh “Emraan Hashmi has proved it in the past and again with The Dirty Picture, that he is the darling of the masses. His strength lies in his mass appeal. His choice of films, his choice of roles is worth noting which explains why his films automatically open to very good houses when they release”
Confirms Vajir Singh,Box Office India “The kind of films that Emraan has been doing are all entertainment films. He experiments but doesn’t cross his boundaries. He does very massy movies. In Indian cinema, songs play a very vital role. His choice of cinema, his choice of songs has been very good. Hence after Salman Khan, its Emraan Hashmi who is the king of single screen cinema. ”

AR Rahman is an ambitious musician. And he wants to scale new heights with every film he works on.
After Rockstar, he comes with romantic album of Ek Deewana Tha. It’s a special film, as he pairs once again with Gautham Menon.
Since Ek Deewana Tha is a love story, Rahman was keen to release the music at the most iconic romantic place. And what better than Taj Mahal at Agra.Taj Mahal at Agra, 8th wonder of the world has been immortalised and recognised as epitome of love.
AR Rahman, Gautham Menon, Prateik and Amy Jackson released music at the iconic Taj Mahal.
While there were lots of concerns to reach, with fog playing havoc and permissions coming last minute, Ek Deewana Tha managed a music launch at beautiful setting.
After the music launch at Taj Kheema, where you can see Taj at the background, AR Rahman, Gautham Menon, Prateik and Amy Jackson went to Taj Mahal to see the monument in its full glory.
Gautham Menon’s Ek Deewana Tha is a love story all set to release in valentine’s month, February.
Ekk Deewana Tha is the story of Sachin, an engineer who has managed to complete his degree, but who is completely obsessed with the world of cinema and films. Hanging around at filmsets, waiting outside director’s offices and spending time with an assistant director friend is what makes most of his days. And just when life was churning its monotonous cycle, Sachin and his family shift to a temporary home in Juhu and it is in this new place, that he sees ‘her’ for the first time. Jessie…. It is love at first sight for Sachin. And when he finds out that she lives in the house upstairs, he leaves no chance to match her, catch her attention or generally try to make conversation with her.
Jessie is a Malayalee Christian with strict orthodox parents. To make matters worse, she is also a year older to Sachin. All the odds seem stacked against him… and finally one day, when pushed into a corner, he confesses to her that he likes her…. But Jessie is headstrong and refuses to accept that she has any feeling for him. She insist that they should be friends and that anything further would make life very difficult for her. And yet, she feels the need to meet him and talk to him. This is a love story musical between the quintessential romantic Sachin and the confused yet headstrong Jessie and the highs and lows of being in love and the pleasure/pains associated with it.

Bollywood and Censor Board share a love-hate relationship. Sometimes Bollywood is not okay with Censor Board norms then sometimes Censor Board have problems with Bollywood films.
Now Karan Johar’s upcoming film EK MAIN AUR EKK TU has come under the watchful eyes of Censor Board. Since Kjo’s film uses the word ‘Sex’, the highly vigilant Censor board objecting to it has asked the filmmaker to remove the word from the trailer in order to procure a U-certificate.
However, when probed about Censor Board’s decision Karan Johar, unlike other filmmakers, took it lightly and quite sarcastically expressed his annoyance towards it.
“Both censor and I have a same problem. Well, we don’t have sex life,” quips Karan.
Starring Kareena Kapoor and Imran Khan, EK MAIN AUR EKK TU releases in 2012 on Valentine’s Day
here is always that one dish of the family that has a secret recipe. At least UTV Spotboy and Anurag Kashyap have a secret recipe when it comes to their collaborated cult cinema.
Titled LUV SHUV TEY CHICKEN KHURANA, the film is already being shot in Ludhiana, Punjab and promises to be a bone tickling madcap comedy.
India’s first Indian food film, which celebrates the Punjabi joint family system, is going to have the music backing from music director Amit Trivedi.
The lead cast of the movie, actor Kunal Kapoor and actress Huma Qureshi, who have been shooting in Ludhiana, took out some time to interact with the media.
Farhan Akhtar just finished shooting a video for the song‘Mujhko Pehchaan Lo’ for DON 2 with Shahrukh Khan in Mumbai. This will be the first of a kind music video where instead of a choreographed song and dance treatment, they have opted to visualize the song as an action sequence. The song is being choreographed by Vaibhavi Merchant.
Speaking on this Farhan Akhtar’s said, ‘It’s going to be a first of its kind music video which makes it really exciting to do. Instead of a song and dance treatment, we’ve opted to visualise the song as an action sequence, to see Don vanquish his opponents while casually singing the words is surreal but very intriguing.’
Commenting on this kind of choreography, Vaibhavi Merchant added, ‘Lip syncing, doing action, performing and all that jazz without a dance and yet a song is an unique experience for me. Hope this sets a trend because its first of its kind and this is only possible with SRK in a Farhan Akhtar film.’
As is the known fact, Abbas-Mustan directed PLAYERS at quite a few exotic locations with North Pole being one of them. While for the huge cast of the film (Abhishek Bachchan, Bobby Deol, Bipasha Basu, Neil Nitin Mukesh, and Sonam Kapoor) it was nothing short of a paid holiday, there was special consideration for the crew members. For the hundred plus crew that was working on the film, it was just another day thousands of miles away from their homes. This means that even though the cast members could afford to have fun and relax during the breaks, it was always going to be one hectic outing for the crew.
“Yes, we had crew members taking care of light, sets, sound etc. and unfortunately not many out of them could afford the kind of clothes and shoes that the stars were wearing. They had to be kept warm as well and we asked Line producers for a solution,” Abbas continues.
A solution was well in hand as there was local army uniform made available for all crew members. Since it was made of stuff that could stand extreme cold and bad weather, the crew too could manage to breathe easy, well literally!
“It started seeming that there was one whole army working on the film,” laughs Mustan, “Everyone was wearing identical clothes along with long boots while shooting in the snow. So while on one side we had rooms that resembled prison cells (the entire cast was put into small rooms since there were no five star facilities available at the North Pole), on the other end there was this entire crew resembling an army. Guess it was just the right mix of crime and patrolling in place.”
Also starring Vinod Khanna, Sikandar Kher and Omi Vaidya, PLAYERS with music by Pritam releases all over on 6th January.
After working with the 4 reigning Khans of Bollywood – Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan and Saif Ali Khan (Kareena’s beau), now the pretty lass is all set to scorch the screen with yet another Khan, the ‘oh-so sweet’ looking Imran Khan in upcoming film EK MAIN AUR EKK TU.
‘Imran has brought lot of freshness to the film. Imran and my chemistry in EK MAIN AUR EKK TU is pretty sizzling and crackling. He is a very sweet guy,’ said Kareena while unveiling the first look theatrical trailer of her upcoming film EK MAIN AUR EKK TU with Imran at an event held recently.
Despite being the sweetest and coolest person to talk with, it seems Imran’s sense of humor doesn’t really impress our swanky actress.
When asked to Kareena about Imran’s one bad quality, Kareena candidly reveals, ‘He doesn’t have a good sense of humour. I don’t like his jokes they are not funny. But he is a very cool guy (laughs).’
EK MAIN AUR EKK TU is produced by Karan Johar and set to release during Valentine’s Day.
