January 8th, 2010 admin 2 comments

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.

Testing Their Luck

July 21st, 2009 admin No comments

As “Luck” reaches the theaters this Friday, we can see the characters trying out their luck in some death-defying stunts. Off screen also the film is an acid test for some of the guys associated with it.

Director Soham Shah had almost disappeared from the industry after his debut “Kaal” in 2005 fell flat at the box office. Four long years of waiting and hard work and he is trying to prove his mettle with an even bigger film.  He should consider himself lucky to be back in the industry with such a big film. Wait and see if ‘Luck’ will come his way this time!

It is testing time for Imraan Khan also! Even though Imraan was quite impressive as the rough and tough guy in his last film “Kidnap”, the film sank at the box office. The actor, who is still riding on the success of his debut “Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na” which was released before one year, is hoping to hit the bull’s eye with the adrenaline-pumping thriller.

Luck will be quite an unconventional debut for its heroine Shruti Haasan, daughter of the legendary Kamal Haasan. While most of the heroines will choose a romantic or family drama film for their debut, she has gone for an action thriller and has done some daredevil stunts for the film. Will her decision turn lucky for her?

Well,  a lot is riding on the movie! We will have to wait and see if “Luck” will bring any luck in the career of these guys. Anyway, goodluck guys!

Pappu Can Dance Saala

July 10th, 2009 admin 1 comment

Most of the younger actors these days rely heavily on their dancing skills, particularly in their debut film. But the hot favourite in the list of emerging actors, Imraan Khan has stuck to his ‘Pappu Can’t Dance Saala’ rule in his first two films. This dashing youngster who is known to have two left feet had always tried to avoid dance if he possibly can.

But it seems that the director Soham Shah and choreographer Remo have found out the dancer in him. Soham insisted Imraan for a leg shake in their upcoming movie ‘Luck’, but the actor wasn’t game for it.  Anyway after his choreographer Remo gave him confidence, he decided to give it a try.

Two days rehersal and Imraan shook legs with his co-star Shruti Haasan for the special number ‘Jee Le’. And what we hear, he has done it splendidly! The youngster was so impressed with himself that he couldn’t stop beaming. And the entire crew of the film is all praise for him.

Well, ‘Pappu Can Dance Saala’ if he decides so!

Rising Stars of Bollywood

July 5th, 2009 admin No comments

Ranbir, Imraan, Neil, Harman, Adhyayan… These guys are the fresh faces of Bollywood at present. Some made dream debuts while others were not able to set the cash registers ringing at the box office. But all of them were appreciated for their acting talent and good looks. Each one is as good as the other in the competition for super stardom.

Imraan Khan, beyond any doubt has proved his acting talent with his first two films. He emoted the chocolate mannerisms perfectly in his debut film ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’. Straight from that, he played the tough guy in ‘Kidnap’ quite to perfection. He has some interesting films in his kitty, like the action extravaganza ‘Luck’ which is to hit the theatres soon, ‘Delhi Belly’ which is a comedy and a couple of romantic flicks like ‘7 Days In Paris’ and ‘I Don’t Believe In Love Stories’.

Ranbir Kapoor was able to deliver only a flop and a semi-hit with his first two films, ‘Saawariya’ and ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno’ respectively. But he is handsome and sincere in his performance. His forthcoming films include ‘Wake Up Sid’ from Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, Rajkumar Santoshi’s ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’, Prakash Jha’s ‘Rajneeti’ and ‘Rocket Singh’ from Yash Raj Films. These films with some of the biggest names in the business could make him the next superstar of Bollywood.

Neil Nitin Mukesh is on a high as his ‘New York’ is doing great at the box office. His debut film ‘Johnny Gaddar’ and the recent ‘Aa Dekhen Zara’ were not able to create much ripples at the box office, but have helped in spotting out the actor in him. He has got the classic good looks, he is a good performer… what he needs is right films at right time. With films like Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Jail’ in his kitty, he is definitely a star in the making.

Harman Baweja is in the back seat after his debut ‘Love Story 2050′ and the recent ‘Victory’ became box office duds. But he cannot be written off completely. He looks hot, dances well and is good in the acting department. His upcoming films with big names, Anees Bazmee’s ‘It’s My Life’ and Ashutosh Gowarikar’s ‘What’s Your Raashee’ could surely turn around his career.

Adhyayan Suman made a forgettable debut with ‘Haal-e-dil’, but this hot hunk is in the limelight after ‘Raaz – The Mystery Continues’ from the Bhatt camp gave him the break. Now he could make it big again as his ‘Jashnn’, once again from the Bhatt camp, is getting ready for release.

So, all these guys have some really big films that will hit the theatres sooner or later this year. The question is, who will make it really big? Let’s wait and see.
