"Working in KCK wasn’t akin to being on a home ground" – Deepika
Feb 26th
Om Shanti Om, Bachna Ae Haseeno, Love Aaj Kal – Pick up any of the successful films that Deepika Padukone has been a part of and it is quite obvious that she has always had an important role to play in the film’s narrative. In fact even in a box office disappointment like Chandni Chowk To Chowk, she did have ample screen time with a double role to her credit. This is why when one sees her in a couple of song sequences and a light hearted scene or two in Karthik Calling Karthik, one wonders if this is all More >
"Ajay is not dark or moody" – Konkona Sen
Feb 26th
For someone who has close to 20 released films to her credit in last 5 years, Konkona Sen Sharma is doing quite good for herself. More so because ever since her debut effort way back in 2002, Mr And Mrs Iyer, she has seen more bouquets coming her way and hardly any brickbats. Ok, so an occasional Dil Kabaddi doesn’t quite do much justice to her acting talent but the fact remains that when it comes to performance, Konkona is the one that many a film maker are vouching for today. While Wake Up Sid did get her the kind More >
Arshad Warsi to get Rs. 3 crores for Golmaal 3?
Feb 25th
He’s in. He’s out. He’s finally….in! After the producers Ashthavinayak, apparently, agreed to pay him a whopping Rs. 3 crores to be part of the third segment of the ongoing Golmaal franchise, Arshad Warsi finally agreed to do the film. After frantic negotiations the deal was finally cut on Monday. And yes, Arshad has condescended to be part of Golmaal 3. His 3-crore rupee fee should be higher than every member of the cast barring Ajay Devgn. Even higher than Kareena Kapoor who has a 3-film deal with the producers. Says a source, “Arshad after Ishqiya was adamant on his More >
Shazahn Padamsee signed up as brand ambassador for Skechers
Feb 24th
When you have parents who are already superstars, it’s but obvious that the spotlight will refuse to move away from you. Same is the case with Shazahn Padamsee, one of the front runner actresses of the Bubblegum generation.

After Kites, Teen Patti gets a Hollywood editor
Feb 24th
Click above for movie stills First it was Anurag Basu’s Kites which got an editor Brett Ratner from Hollywood to put together the material after the Indian editor Akiv Ali (a regular on Anurag’s films like Gangster and Life In A Metro). Director Anurag Basu was none too pleased with this creative meddling. But there was little he could do. Now it’s Teen Patti which has roped in the services of a Hollywood editor over and above the desi editor Kaushik Das. Hughes Winborne who has edited the Will Smith starrers The Pursuit Of Happyness and Seven Pounds and also More >

Feb 23rd
The cat is out of the bag. Ekta Kapoor and her director Milan Luthria were looking for a neo-Helen for the longest time. The original plan of discovering a completely untried dancer failed as time was running out. They’ve finally zeroed in on Gauhar Khan who has been secretly jiving away to Helen’s most popular cabaret ‘Piya Tu Ab To Aaja’ for Luthria’s Once Upon A Time In Mumbai. Raju Khan has been brought to do the choreography for what’s touted as the most expensive cabaret ever shot in Bollywood. Gauhar danced to the beats of ‘Piya Tu Ab To More >
Reason why ‘Hide & Seek’ stars relative newcomers
Feb 23rd
Apoorva Lakhia is all geared up to release his first production HIDE & SEEK, directed by his erstwhile assistant Shawn Arranha. Having assisted Apoorva right from the days when even he was an assistant, Shawn has learnt the art of narrating stories well. However, Apoorva has worked with several top notch names to date, but Shawn and Apoorva decided to cast relative newcomers in HIDE & SEEK. What prompted them to cast relative newcomers this time? “Two reasons. One, had we cast well-known actors, the audience would’ve guessed the killer at the very outset. With new faces, you keep guessing More >
‘Don 2′ starts this year
Feb 23rd
Everyone’s speculating about DON 2. Farhan Akhtar, who directed the SRK starrer DON, had announced the sequel to the film quite some time back. While Farhan got busy with his acting assignments and SRK too decided to work on RAB NE BANA DI JODI first and MY NAME IS KHAN next, one kept wondering when Farhan and SRK would start the next instalment of DON. “DON 2 will start in October this year. We’ve locked the script and also the locations,” Farhan and his producer-partner Ritesh Sidhwani tell me. The new DON will have two leading ladies. “Priyanka Chopra will More >
