Director Raj Kanwar whose Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif starrer ‘Humko Deewana Kar Gaye’ released recently is upset with actress Bipasha Basu’s indignant protests over promotional material of the film and her notion that she is being projected as a second leading lady.

The puzzled director said, “Why is she doing this? A film is like one complete body and soul. You are either part of it, or you are not. If the hand, which is part of the body, declared I’m not part of the body, it isn’t right. She has done my film. And before she did it she knew what she was getting into.”

He added, “We had never put it in an agreement that she will or won’t be part of our publicity. Bipasha isn’t a guest star in the film. We wanted to project ‘Humko Deewana Kar Gaye’ as a love story with two heroes and two heroines. Now she’s quoted in an interview as saying she has only one song in my film. That isn’t true. She has two major songs.”

Bipasha had fumed over the promotional material of the film, “We had mutually agreed that I wouldn’t feature anywhere in the publicity or promos because it’s not a triangular love story and I have a tiny role. They used my photos without my knowledge and consent. I never shot for a single publicity still with them. Obviously they have got it from another film of mine.” (more…)

Movie Review: Shaadi Se Pehle

What happens in the mind of most of the couples before marriage (Shaadi Se Pehle)? Confusion, fright, panic and misunderstandings. And this is what director Satish Kaushik wanted to reflect through this light entertainer. But don’t pull your hopes too high because apart from the top star cast (Akshaye Khanna, Ayesha Takia, Aftab Shivdasani, Mallika Sherawat, Rajpal Yadav, Boman Irani, Anupam Kher and Sunil Shetty) and interesting story, the movie is like a luke-warm shower which you might not find too alluring.

Story:
Ashish Kapoor (Akshay Khanna) and Rani (Ayesha Takia) is a couple who are pretty much in love with each other. Ashish has a problem. He tries to stop even the slightest level of tension, by popping a pill to control his shaken nerves. This comes to the notice of Rani’s family members who in turn try to separate them. And if that was not enough for Ashish, there is his friend Rohit (Aftab Shivdasani) who wants Rani to be his, so keep trying to create confusion between lovers. Despite all this, Rani genuinely loves Ashish and sticks to him.

However, when Ashish goes to visit his doctor, he misunderstands the doctor’s diagnosis of hypertension to cancer and thinks that he has only one year to live. (more…)

Himesh Reshammiya constant success has become pain in a** for his competitors. Now he is being targeted by many and some of his colleagues in the music industry have backlash at him. He was also accused of plagiarism by some. But Himesh remains unperturbed by all that.

Himesh said, “I am neither hurt nor disturbed by the occasional backbiting and criticism, from some of my colleagues. By and large, the music industry has been very supportive towards my success. It is just that some people are a bit surprised by the fact that a music director who is also a singer, has walked away with all the success.” (more…)

A.R. Rahman’s hit track ‘Paathshala’ from the film ‘Rang De Basanti’ still rules the top Bollywood album position. It is an energetic number and captures the psyche of today’s youth. Let’s look at the 10 Hindi songs of the week:

1. Paathshala from Rang De Basanti
Singers: Naresh Iyer, Mohammed Aslam; Music: A.R. Rahman.
The song’s popularity is still soaring and it has perched itself in the first position. (more…)

A promotional video of Abbas Mustan’s 36 China Town has been shot where people will get to see, off screen couple and lead pair of the film Shahid - Kareena shaking legs with Chinese dancers.

This Subhash Ghai and Mukta Arts films video is the remixed title track choreographed by Remo. The song also has model Upen Patel who is making his acting debut in the film. (more…)

Himesh Reshammiya seemed very angry during Zee awards and MTV awards. When he was awarded the Best Singer at Zee, he opened his acceptance speech by saying, “Hope this proves a point. I will be even better next year. I am grateful to God, dad and Salman Khan.” Earlier, at the MTV where he reaped two prizes (Best Singer and Music) he began by saying, “Yeh awards maine kharide nahin hai!”

So, why he appear so sullen and what’s to be so bitter about? He has also received the Filmfare award for Best Singer as well as the Stardust awards for Best Singer and New Talent. Isn’t it time for him to celebrate. This is what he has to say.

I’m not arrogant.

Nothing, absolutely nothing! I am thankful and grateful to everyone for the response my songs have fetched. Maybe, I am not good at humour; or maybe my straight-faced look makes people think its attitude. But it’s not that way at all. If that’s what people felt after watching me on TV, let me clear it - Himesh is not bitter about anything. I am not arrogant. I am happy to be recognised as a hit singer and composer. (more…)
