Kareena Kapoor has hit a jackpot. She has been signed by Ramgopal Varma to play Shah Rukh Khan’s sweetheart in a film on time travel titled ‘Time Machine’.

This will be Kareena’s second film opposite Shah Rukh. If you remember Kareena has already featured with SRK in his home production ‘Asoka’ and is currently doing a cameo (Helen’s role) in Farhan Akhtar’s ‘Don’ starring Shah Rukh and Priyanka Chopra in the lead.

Kareena was earlier doing a sci-fi film with Harry Baweja titled ‘Love Story 2050′ opposite his son Harman Baweja but she opted out of it. Now there’s a buzz that she opted out of Harry’s film to do this one, with a bigger banner and a bigger star.

Santoshi is now casting for the other roles. He will require some actors from London and an African-British actor. About eighty per cent of the story will unfolds in London and the rest take place in India.

Ameesha Patel who is shooting for Reema Kagti’s Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd. in Goa for a month is having a great time although they are working round the clock.

How is shooting for Honeymoon Travels going in Goa?

Goa is beautiful and I can stay here all my life. We all are having a blast here, and even before you ask, I am not fighting with any of my co-actors on the sets. It is tiring to shoot day and night, but Reema is such a fantastic director that she never lets us feel the stress. She always gives us the space which an actor expects from a director.

Do you feel different working with a woman director?

Yes, she (Reema) understands a woman's psychology well. Even before we could speak she would understand. That's the fun of working with a woman director. There are so many women in the cast too. (more…)

Rumors were rife that the two actresses Priyanka Chopra and Ameesha Patel were spitting cold vibes while shooting for Dharmesh Darshan’s ‘Aap Ki Khatir’ in London. Some said that the actresses who were supposed to be playing sisters in the film were more bitter than strangers in real life. But now Priyanka Chopra begs to differ.

How was the experience of working with Dharmesh Darshan?
It was good. All of us had a great time, except that it was minus 5 degrees Celsius where we were shooting in Ludlow (on the outskirts of London). The climactic conditions were unbearable. To top it, I had to wear chiffons and skirts for my scenes. I’d do the shots in the freezing cold, rush to the car and turn on the heater on full blast. A month of blowing cold and blowing hot has taken its toll on my health. Now I’m down with fever. But there was a lot of warmth among us actors - Akshaye Khanna, Dino, Ameesha, Anupam, Lilette, Suniel Shetty - despite the fact that I hadn’t worked with them before. I love the outdoors. But I also love to come home.

The crew members of Aap Ki Khatir while shooting for the film actually saw a spirit roaming around the palatial villa (where they are shooting) at Knighton in London. And they claim it belongs to former governor general Lord Clive.

Actor Sunil Shetty said, “It’s beautiful, but isolated countryside, and the palace we were shooting in belonged to Lord Clive. Initially, a crewmember reported a ghostly experience, but nobody believed him. As the days passed, all the crewmembers were convinced there was a spirit roaming around. But I’ve not personally felt it.”
