You are all set to change your image. Why?

Were you comfortable doing the backless shot for the promotion of the film?
I had a discussion with director Vikram Bhatt and producer Rongita Nandy, and I was convinced when they explained the reason for the shot to me. However, during the shooting of the film I threw everyone out of the studio, except Subi and Rongita. (more…)

Apart from smooches Emraan talks about songs, cinema, fiancee and some naughty things.

Painful Beginning
When Mahesh (Bhatt) uncle and Vikram Bhatt offered me Footpath, I first declined the offer. But they asked me to reconsider. I gave 30 retakes out of nervousness for my first shot, which was with Aftab Shivdasani, and so acting for me had a painful beginning. But now it is a passion.

Cinema love
The acclaim gives me a high. But more than that, I love cinema. I love sitting in on the editing of Mukesh (Bhatt) uncle’s films, and if I had not become an actor I would have worked on visual effects and graphics. I have even done a course in 3-D and ‘Maya’. (more…)

Movie Review: Humko Tumse Pyaar Hain

Humko Tumse Pyaar Hain is a romantic melodrama which is finally seeing the glow of release after many years. Produced by Cineyug, this love triangle would have hit the screens long ago, but the sudden demise of Bunty Soorma delayed the film. Later, director Vikram Bhatt stepped in to complete it. Although the concept of love triangle has been repeated many times but interestingly look of the film is not out of date. Also remarkable direction from Vikram Bhatt because when such films are directed under a different director the result is exaggerated and film looks patchy from where the new director must have started but in case of this film no so such thing has happened. Full marks to Vikram Bhatt for handling the project so well. Humko Tumse Pyaar Hai was shot in Switzerland and Rajasthan and this adds to the overall look of the movie. (more…)

Humko Tumse Pyaar Hai is releasing after a long delay but Amisha is optimistic about its fate. She has a many films lined for release. But the actress is not worried as she is getting good roles.

How do you feel about Humko Tumse Pyaar Hai that is releasing after so many years?
The film still looks fresh. It’s sad that the co-producer and director Bunty Soorma passed away while shooting was in progress. But it’s his dream which has been realised and I hope it does well. It’s a wonderful film. (more…)

Last year was not so good for Aftab Shivdasani but this year he will be seen in many films - RGV’s Darwaza Bandh Rako, Vikram Bhatt’s Ankahee, Subhash Ghai’s Shaadi Se Pehle, Speed and other projects. His love life with Yana Gupta is flourishing equally. About his plans of turning producer the actor call them rumours.

Ram Gopal Varma's Darwaza Bandh Rakho is a black comedy directed by Chakravarthy. Tell us something about it?
It’s about four guys who kidnap a girl played by Isha Sharvani and takes her to a bungalow and eventually end up being hostages. It’s a brilliantly shot film.

In Vikram Bhatt's Ankahee Aftab will be seen opposite Esha Deol. How was it working with Esha? (In past Aftab had link-up with Esha)
She is a thorough professional and we were just colleagues on the sets. She behaved herself and I behaved myself on the sets. We both have matured. (more…)
