Who will be heroine of Farah Khan’s Akshay Kumar starrer Tees Maar Khan ? This question has been making news for quite a while now! From Priyanka Chopra to Deepika Padukone to Sonam Kapoor, rumour mills suggested a lot of names for the heroine of the film. But it is Bollywood’s ‘barbie girl’ Katrina Kaif who will be romancing Akki in the film.
While the makers of the film are yet to confirm on the news, sources from the industry reveal that Farah and Akshay has almost zeroed in on Kat for the film. The hit track record of Akki-Kat jodi which includes super hits like Namastey London, Welcome and Singh is Kinng must have definitely worked in favour of the actress.
Akshaye Khanna will play an important role in the film. Rest of the cast is yet to be finalized. Tees Maar Khan will have Akshay Kumar playing a super-clever conman.
Tees Maar Khan is scripted by Farah Khan’s husband Shirish Kunder. The film will be produced by Shirish Kunder and Akshay Kumar’s banner Hari Om Productions.
What a coincidence! Right after her break up with Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone is doing a film titled Break Ke Baad! She will be paired opposite Ranbir’s friend and competitor Imran Khan in the film.
As the title denotes, Break Ke Baad is about a young couple who break up and want to come together. This modern day love story is set against the locales of Delhi and Australia.
Imran and Deepika are paired for the first time in this film. Break Ke Baad is also Imran’s first opportunity to do a film opposite a top league actress, after his 7 days in Paris with Katrina Kaif was shelved.
Break Ke Baad, is the first independent production venture of director turned producer, Kunal Kohli . The film is also the directorial debut of Danish Aslam, Kunal’s assistant.
Finally, after a series of postponements, the release date of Hrithik Roshan’s much awaited film Kites is confirmed. The film is going to have a worldwide release on May 14th, this year.
Initially, Kites was scheduled for release during Diwali 2009. Then it was shifted for the Christmas of 2009. The makers then planned to release the film on January 15, 2010, coinciding with the 10th anniversary of Hrithik Roshan’s debut film Kaho Naa… Pyar Hai. Later the film was postponed for release during the summer vacations in April.
Kites, directed by Anurag Basu and produced by Rakesh Roshan, has Mexican Actress Barbara Mori and Kangana Ranaut as Hrithik Roshan’s heroines. The film, an intercultural love story, will be released in both Hindi and English versions. Hollywood director Brett Ratner of the Rush Hour series has been roped in to make the English version of Kites, appealing for the Western audiences.
Kites will have to face competition from two other biggies that will be released in the succeeding weekends. While Sajid Khan’s Akshay Kumar starrer Housefull is slated for release on May 20th, Prakash Jha’s political thriller Rajneeti starring Ajay Devgan, Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor will be released on May 28th.
