Ranbir
is starring in Imtiaz Ali’s Rock Star. He has learned to play the guitar for
this role. And Ranbir is all set to perform live for the film. Apparently, one
reason why Saif had initially been selected for the role of the Rock Star was
his proficiency on the guitar. (Saif had played with the band Parikrama and
knew how to play live on stage).
Now Ranbir is going to be playing in front a live audience for the film The
idea is to fill up the audience with youngsters who are fans of rock music for
a ‘Ranbir Kapoor Concert’ backed by a full band.
The Kajol – Kareena starrer “We Are
Family” is ready for release during Eid in September. Publicity king Karan
Johar is already planning for the films promotions. However, Kajol is expecting
her second child, which will mean that she will not be part of the promotional
campaign.
Which is why Kareena has taken upon
herself to promote the movie-in her absence- and she has already allotted a
chunk of her dates for the same. Siddharth Malhotra, the director said, “The
film is definitely releasing on Eid. It is everybody’s film and the entire cast
will be available whenever they can. But it would be too much if we expect
Kajol to travel everywhere”.
Kajol is not the one to be left
behind, Kajol has decided to pre-record as many interviews as possible which
will be used later. Karan says, “Kajol, Kareena and I had a ball doing the
stuff for We are Family. We were all very careful about Kajol’s condition.
Kajol too was very careful about what she could and couldn’t do. To expect her
to plunge into the film’s publicity just before its release would’ve been
impractical and unreal. September 10 - when the film releases - is too close to
her delivery day.”
Rakesh
Roshan is definitely on his way to plan a sequel. Not of his last box office
disaster “Kites” but of his superhit from 2006 Krrish. Though reports had
earlier stated that Roshan Sr. had dropped the idea of Krrish 2 after the
release of the visually spellbinding Hollywood movie Avatar. But now reports
say that it has got the green signal.
And
Papa Roshan is leaving no stones unturned to make sure that this movie turns
out to be a great hit and wipes out the embarrassment of Kites. Known to give a
free hand to his writers with minimal interference, this time Rakesh is being
very cautious as his son’s as well as his production company Filmkraft’s future
is at stake.
Hrithik
is busy shooting for Zoya Akhtar’s Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara, his dad is working
non-stop on Krrish2. The basic story of the sequel has apparently been fixed so
the details are now been worked upon. Also, Deepika Padukone (who had refused
Kites because of the intimate scenes) may be playing the female lead in the
film.
There is a growing rumor
that Kareena Kapoor will be teaming up with todays poster boy Imran Khan.
Bollywood is always happy when they get another star pair to market. Yes, these very good-looking actors have been signed by
Karan Johar for his Short Term Shaadi, a film that is reportedly on the lines
of the Cameron Diaz-Ashton Kutcher romcom What Happened in Vegas.
A
source says that the film is likely to go on the floors in the month of
November 2010.
While
Imran said, “I’m not at liberty to discuss anything about the film right now.”
Kareena too has been vowed to secrecy by the creative team. However, it is
being said that Karan has reportedly asked Bebo to lose weight again. BT
managed to get some inside details. A source said, “It is ironical. Kareena had
just started eating to look slightly rounded because her boyfriend Saif Ali
Khan is tired of her looking like a clothes hanger.”
The actress herself had confessed,
“Saif likes my butt,” and got a lot of rebuttal from the press for “talking
like that”. So she had immediately backed off. But the bottom line is Bebo had
actually altered her diet. She was eating well and just when she was sinking her
teeth into more wholesome food, news comes that Karan wants her to get back to
being size zero.

Deepika Padukone has found a friend
for life in her co-star from “Lafange Parindey” actor Neil Nitin Mukeh. Neil
once went out of his way to put Deepika’s makeup for an accident scene.
‘I think I have made a friend for
life and I think that’s what I cherished the most because he is a wonderful
human being and that comes across on screen. We got along really well,’ said
Deepika.
‘There is an accident scene, where I
need a different kind of make-up and he is trained in it so he told dada
(Pradeep Sarkar) that he will do my make-up and he did. Another day where I was
doing…not exactly an action sequence, but lot of cable work and all of that, he
choreographed the entire act. So I think in every way he was there for me,’ said
Deepika.
The movie is set in the mean streets
of Mumbai city. It is a love story where Neil Nitin Mukesh plays the character
of Nandu, a fighter who pummels his opponents in the ring and Deepika Padukone
plays Pinky Palkar, a dancer who is blind but ambitious and dances with roller
skates on her feet.
Neil used to be around Deepika, even
on his off days. ‘I can confidently say that he has been the most supportive
and encouraging co-star, with whom I have worked so far. Even on days when he
was not required, he would be there,’ said Deepika.
‘I think he is ready to direct. We
keep thinking that he is new, we saw him in three-four films, but I think in
terms of experience and his knowledge where cinema is concerned, I think he is
technically very sound and he is ready to direct a film,’ said Deepika.
