Anushka ready to do ten more films for YRF/Aditya!

All set for a hat trick of hits with her upcoming film BAND BAAJA BAARAAT (carrying a very positive response), Anushka Sharma is certainly overjoyed, elated and extremely confident. Her first two films, RAB NE BANA DI JODI and BADMAASH COMPANY, for Yash Raj Films have been successful (more so RAB NE.. which is a blockbuster and BADMAASH COMPANY a hit) and trade is pretty confident that Anushka will weave her magic with BAND BAAJA BAThere was news that Anushka's three film contract with Yash Raj Films which she had signed has now ended and so she is free to sign new films. Rubbishing the reports Anushka says that that there was no contract whatsoever and clarifies that she had signed Nikhil Advani's PATIALA HOUSE even before BAND BAAJA BAARAAT.
She however accepted that it was a mutual agreement that she would do three film with Yash Raj but no one stopped her from signing films with any outside banner. She also added that if Yash Raj Films and Aditya feel that her presence is required in any movie she would be glad to be a part of even ten more films as she owes everything to them.
Certainly it's heartening to see such attitude, especially from youngsters, which shows that loyalty and gratitude still exists in Bollwyood, after all we have seen so many examples when big stars deserted their mentors after success.
ARAAT as well.

Vivek Oberoi: It was love within twenty minutes!

With only weeks left for his wedding, actor Vivek Oberoi cannot stop talking about his bride -to-be, Priyanka Alva. Vivek Oberoi, who had been nursing a sore heart ever since his unceremonious breakup with Aishwarya Rai, has found renewed love in Priyanka Alva.
When asked whether the marriage was arranged or love, Vivek Oberoi promptly replies that it was love within twenty minutes! Though their parents first brought them together, the couple realized they were in love in their very first meeting.
Vivek Oberoi is surely a happy man these days. After the much-needed success of Rakta Charitra, the actor is all gung-ho about tying the knot with fiancé Priyanka Alva on the 29th of October. The wedding ceremony is to take place in Bangalore where the Alvas reside. The couple will organize a reception party in Mumbai, but reports claim that the ceremony will be attended by limited people from within the industry.
Vivek Oberoi says that he not only shares a lovely relationship with Priyanka but also with her parents. In fact, the Alvas were to known to them for a fairly long time and have been family friends since Vivek’s childhood years. The couple are presently occupied with looking over the construction of their new house in Juhu, Mumbai. But this does not mean that Vivek Oberoi is moving out of his parent’s home post marriage.

Karthi's Virtuosos With New Filles

Airtel is deliberately felicitous over signing Karthi as the brand endorser. The actor is flying high with best feedbacks across the town for his new cool looks and fantabulous picturing. Moreover it’s about the missies sharing the screen space with him. First it was Bollywood’s hottest gal Chitrangada Singh and now Vedhika.
The commercial ad campaigns are turning to be everyone’s cynosure, especially the youth cohorts.
Airtel is now planning up for few more commercials that would go along with the theme of new packages introduced by this largest mobile service groups.
Meanwhile the actor is getting close on the heels of completing his next film 'Siruthai'. With 2010 happening to be the most fortunate year for Karthi, his fans are looking for the next spell to commence with 'Siruthai' from 2011.

'Nadodigal' Goes to Kannada

Kannada film industry’s most happening superstar Puneeth Rajkumar takes on the lead role in Kannada remake of ‘Nadodigal’, which is yet to be titled. The movie was launched day before yesterday in Bangalore with Puneeth Rajkumar’s mother Parvathamma, wife of late actor Dr. Rajkumar and actor Ravichandran launched the movie.
The film is produced by Puneeth Rajkumar’s home banner and is directed by famous filmmaker K Madesha. Yogish, Srinagar Kitty and Radhika Pandit are playing other lead roles. Abhinaya, who performed the sister roles in ‘Nadodigal’ and its Telugu version ‘Shambo Shiva Shambo’ takes on the same role here as well.
Sathya Hegde is handling cinematography and music director V Harikrishna is scoring music. This will be a long term project with a schedule of 100days and will be shot across various parts of Mysore, Chikkade, Bangalore and Chitra Durga.

SHANKAR TO BEGIN WITH MAHESH BABU… NOT VIJAY

Director Shankar may begin the shooting of the Telugu version of 3 Idiots in December as he had already obtained the call sheet of Mahesh Babu. The Tamil version will begin sometime later as Vijay’s dates are mixed up with his other projects.
Jiiva is set to play one of the roles in Tamil. There is a talk that Siddharth and Arya are in the race for yet another important role. Shankar may rope in either of them as both enjoy immense popularity in Kollywood and Tollywood.
So, for now, the Tamil version still looks bleak with nothing finalized.

Sadha says that she lost many offers because of Hindi films

Sadha said that she lost lot of offers due to Hindi films. She while speaking to the media said,” I got lot of offers after the hit film Jayam which was released in Tamil and Telugu.
Later on I paired with Vikram in the film Anniyan which was directed by Shankar. This film was a great hit and earned me a great recognition in the South Indian languages.
After acting in 20 films in Tamil, Telugu , Kannada and Malayalam films, I decided to act in Hindi films. I acted in Hindi films Love Khichdi and Click. But these films did not release in time. The shooting of these films were commenced and was prolonging.
My call sheet was wasted. Since there was a condition that I can accept new films only after completing these films, I had to lose other opportunities. I cannot blame anyone for this. Currently I am acting in the Tamil film Puli Vesham and in the Hindi film Kalpaali. In Kannada, I am acting in Mallari and Thunda Thundi.”

Udhayanidhi Stalin is ready for hero

Udhayanidhi Stalin is now ready to kick-start his career as an actor. After going through various scripts and discussions, the producer has finally chosen director Rajesh to wield megaphone for his film. In fact, he was much impressed with the entertaining style of filmmaking in ‘Boss Engira Baskaran’. Now the duo is all set to kick-start their next project.
We hear it from the closer sources that Udhayanidhi Stalin and director Rajesh have zeroed down on couple of interesting titles taken from Rajesh’s previous films dialogue and song.
It will be either ‘Oru Kal Oru Kannadi’ (song sequence from Rajesh’s debut directorial ‘Siva Manasula Sakthi’ or ‘Nanbenda’ (Punch line of ‘Boss Engira Baskaran’)
Udhayanidhi Stalin is busy now going through the production phase of Suriya-Shruthi Haasan starrer ‘Ezham Arivu’ and Kamal Haasan’s ‘Manmadhan Ambu’. He is now thinking to promote the film ‘Myna’ with a greater magnitude.
Udhayanidhi has chosen a role that suits him well to the core of his looks and character. Just like his previous films, Rajesh will make another comedy entertainer.
Let us hope the new combo makes a good show with their best efforts.

Endhiran to speak English, in 3D

Endhiran will be released in a 3D English version for the international market. Says Sun TV CEO Hansraj Saxena, “We have been under pressure to complete and release Endhiran in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. But now, considering how well it has been received in the South and North, we are looking at an English version for the international market.” Seven minutes of footage is already in 3D, and will be added to the Tamil, Telugu and Hindi versions later. The film will be released in Japan in a dubbed version too. “But first, we’d like to take Endhiran to film festivals,” says Saxena.

SOHA ALI KHAN ON RAJINI

Bollywood actress Soha Ali Khan, daughter of Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi and Sharmila Tagore, has said that she loves Rajinikanth. The actress, who has not seen Endhiran yet, says that her friends rave about the film and she wants to watch it as the trailers and reviews are impressive too. When quizzed about her desire to act in Kollywood film, Soha has said that she prefers to focus in Bollywood for the time being. Her next project in the pipeline is Chemistry with Shreyas Talpade.

AND THE CREDIT GOES TO....

AND THE CREDIT GOES TO....
Endhiran, which was released a fortnight before has brought life to an age-old debate. No! We are not going to discuss about Endhiran. The debate is actually on a larger perspective. A scale which is larger than that of Endhiran's! What is it that actually makes a movie work? We all know that the making of a movie is no less than weaving a magic spell on the audience. But it is also a collective effort, a combined effort of hundreds of individuals.
So who takes the larger share of the pie here? Everyone involved in the movie has the right to claim that the movie's success is theirs. The director, producer, cinematographer, musician, lyricist… everyone has an equal part to play in a movie. The phenomenal success of Endhiran has added a new dimension to the topic. Is a big-budget movie a recipe for success? Analysts will argue that a small budget movie like Kalavani was also a huge success. OK!
There have been so many instances in the past where big budget movies have fallen and small timers have tasted huge success. A very obvious example is that of Pasanga. A movie which featured school children and was targeted mostly at children was a huge success. It reaped rich harvests across the world with so many awards in International film festivals and four national
awards. So, are story and direction keys to success? In that case, movies like Anbe Sivam and Virumandi should never have been flops. Actor Vijay tasted huge success with a string of hits movies like Gilli, Sivakasi, Tirupachi and Pokkiri. So, is star value the focal point to the movies success? Think about Vijay's movies of the recent past and we can say it is not.
Music has played a very important role in Indian movies, Kollywood in particular. There have been movies in the past that have become hits only because of songs and romantic numbers. Is music instrumental in the movie's success? Well, directors of late have opted to choose scripts which take a detour from the normal. Kamal Hassan starrer Unnaipol Oruvan succeeded without a single romantic number. Same goes with other departments which have equal contribution in the making of movie. So what is it that makes a movie click?
If we take a look at this year's hit movies, we can possibly have an idea (not a conclusion) of what it takes to strike gold. We have star value in Sura, Singam and Asal, musical hits like Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya and Paiyaa, experiments like Ayirathil Oruvan and Raavanan, comedy in movies like Boss Engira Baskiran and one movie which had all, Endhiran. This has made the situation hazier than before. We can only infer that success of a movie is about street smart direction. The difference here is between having food at home and in a restaurant. It is about cooking the recipe with all the required ingredients.
Endhiran has only emphasized this very fact. It has the required star value, peppy songs, great locations, the required computer graphics and the right script which can make the audience think about the movie after leaving the movie hall. Such a budget was required because the script required it. We may again be proved wrong if a movie of such extravagance fails in the future. For now, the credit goes to ... the smarter brain!

3 Idiots From December 6

Yesterday, official confirmations about the ‘3 Idiots’ remake were made by some of the closer sources of S Pictures. Now it has been revealed that first Shankar may start shooting for the Telugu version.
According to the sources, the film is scheduled to go on floors on December 6 as call sheets of Mahesh Babu are not hectic at that point. With Vijay, nothing has been confirmed. As of now, Jeeva has been confirmed the other lead role while details on other actor isn’t finalized yet. It may be either Siddarth or Arya as the duo has gained popularity across Telugu and Tamil film industries.
Harris Jayaraj has completed couple of tunes for Telugu version and Manoj Paramahamsa will handle cinematography.
