Ajay Devgn has dabbled in almost all genres of films in his career of over two decades, but the actor is still eager to experiment with his roles.

‘I want to try to balance drama, action and comedy. I want to do every genre and am ready to experiment with my roles. I don’t want to let my producers or directors down,’ said Ajay in a statement.

His last release ‘Singham’ crossed the Rs.100 crore mark at the box-office, but he says this level of popularity and fame frightens him.

‘It feels great when you are a part of movie reaching the Rs.100 crore mark. But at the same time, it frightens me as an actor and makes me feel more responsible with every release.’ More

Actor Boman Irani has been asked to do a cameo in Karan Johar’s “Student of The Year”. He will most likely share screen space with his son Kayoze, who is making his acting debut with the film.

Kancha Sanjay Dutt just can’t seem to get enough of gangster roles. After playing an underworld gangster in movies like Aatish,Vaastav, Plan and Jung, Agneepath, Sanjay Dutt will yet again be ‘don’ning the role of an underworld figure in director Soham Shah’s next venture, where he will play the role of real life Gujarat based gangster Sharman Munjha Jadeja. Incidentally, the Shabana Azmi starrer Godmother was based on the life of Munjha’s wife Santokben Jadeja.

Known as the Robin Hood of Gujarat, Sharman Munjha and his family ruled Porbandar and other areas of Gujarat in the 80s. A source was quoted to have said, “Soham came up with the idea of making a film on Sharman and Sanjay Dutt loved the idea so much that he agreed to not only act in the film, but also produce it as well.”

The film will also star Vivek Oberoi, another favourite for gangster films after movies like Company and Shootout At Lokhandwala and sources claim that the dusky dame Chitrangda Singh is likely to play the female lead. Source

The progress of Sanjay Dutt’s much talked about project SATTE PE SATTA remake, which was a bit slow, has now, it seems, gained momentum. Some time back it was held that Karisma Kapoor, who is making her comeback on the silver screen after a hiatus, will be stepping in the shoes of veteran actress Hema Malini for the remake. And now the latest development is that Omi Vaidya of 3 IDIOTS fame is all set to play the youngest brother (Shani) which was essayed by Sachin Pilgaonkar in the original.

Omi confirms about his role in the film, “I have signed SATTE PE SATTA remake with Sanjay Dutt. I’ll play the youngest brother which Sachin Pilgaonkar had played in the original. Hopefully I’ll do justice to the role.” More

The song ‘Bipasha‘ is all over the music channels and the lady-at-the-hot-seat, Bipasha Basu, is heard claiming that she was a little jittery before consenting to jive to a song that was designed on her personality. However makers of JODI BREAKERS have spilled the beans and declared that even though the song was composed later in the day, a slot was reserved for it from the very beginning.

Says director Ashwini Chaudhary, “See, audience have certain expectations from Bipasha and you can’t deny them the joy of seeing her in the avatar they like to see her in the most. They want to see her as a glamorous woman. Thankfully the character of Sonia that she plays in the film is also that of a modern urban girl from today’s time. Hence there wasn’t much that we have to add to that since it would anyways have suited Bipasha. However we did underline that a little and added in further bits so that her presence in the film could be further justified.”

One such step in this direction was to add the song ‘Bipasha’ which is fast seeing an upwards movement in the popularity charts and also helping in raising the film’s stocks further. More

It could be a role of a lifetime for the two Khans of Bollywood! Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan, both are being considered to play a cop in an undercover crime thriller. The movie is the remake of Gautham Menon’s hit film Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu and starred south star Kamal Haasan.

What makes the movie apt for a Bollywood remake? The film Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu not only was a hit film but also wowed the critics as well because of its strong script and acting by Kamal Haasan. Also it was a modern crime thriller with some super advanced special effects.

Director Gautham Menon is very keen to recreate Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu magic in Bollywood, and believes that either Shahrukh or Salman can step into the mighty shoes of Kamal Hassan. More

No more romantic sagas for Shahid Kapoor – he has reportedly turned down Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s love triangle “Chitthiyan”.

“I haven’t accepted any new offer except Maneesh Sharma’s. And it would be inappropriate to talk about the films I’ve said no to,” said the 30-year-old actor.

Apparently Chopra met Shahid and narrated the story. However, the actor, who has just done a full-on love story “Mausam”, is in no mood to go ultra-romantic so quickly again.

Says a close friend of Shahid, “He is hearing at an average one script every day. For some strange reason, most of the films on offer, including Anand (‘Tanu Weds Manu’) Rai’s ‘Ranjhana’, are love stories. Ideally, Shahid would want to do an action film next.” More

Our headlines may come as a surprise to most as the two top Khans, Aamir and Shah Rukh, though cordial to each other are not exactly bosom pals. But hold on to your horses because what we are saying is true, though there is bit of a twist to the tale.

As is known, in February 2011, Shah Rukh Khan was in Malaysia’s exotic tourist island, Langkawi, to shoot for DON 2. During his two week sojourn, King Khan stayed at Langkawi’s The Danna Hotel, located very close to the shooting venue, the cable car and the rain forest.

It may well be a co-incidence of sorts but the fact is that (believe it or not!) the name of the general manager of The Danna Hotel was Aamir Khan, who made sure that SRK’s stay was a very comfortable one. The interesting information came to our knowledge during our recent visit to Langkawi!

Well, we are sure that Aamir Khan’s efforts were not in vain because we know for sure that some of the most stunning shots from DON 2 are from the Langkawi portions, but more on that later! Source

My film Saawariya released on 9 November, 2009. But I feel that my journey has just begun. I have worked with very good directors. And I am looking forward to working with many more,” Ranbir said.

The actor, whose upcoming film Rockstar is ready for release, says that the past four years have been a great learning period for him. “I have learnt an important lesson in the past four years and that is to stay focused and concentrate on my work.

While the world may be raising eyes and busy raving about Bollywood actor Vidya Balan’s boldest acts in the upcoming film THE DIRTY PICTURE, Vidya’s family is unperturbed with it. In fact they are all praise of Vidya’s brave performance.

Says Vidya, when asked about her family’s reaction to her bold portrayal, “They haven’t seen the film yet but yes they have seen the promos of the film and liking it. My dad never reacts to any of my films. However, my mom immediately said is that you? She didn’t recognize me. My sister paid me a very big compliment. She said ‘agar Jhijak hoti toh ashleel lagta’. But she said ‘you have done it bindaas, dil khol ke kaam kiya hai I am proud of you’.”

The content of THE DIRTY PICTURE is such which can’t be watched along with kids. The film gets easily demarcated from family entertainers….Vidya interrupts, “THE DIRTY PICTURE is an Adult film. It should not be watched with kids. Actually, today’s time is quite forward and kids watch more vulgar stuff on net…A sense of responsibility should be developed in today’s children where they can set limits on their own.” Source

There’s a rumour doing the rounds that Esha Deol will be a part of Yash Chopra’s next directorial venture which stars Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma.

Apparently, Yash Chopra decided on Esha after he saw her in Tell Me O Kkhuda.

Yash Chopra has a long-standing bonding with Hema Malini. She was part of his film Trishul and then again in Veer-Zaara. Esha got a major break in Yash Raj’s Dhoom.

When contacted, Esha’s mother Hema Malini said, “Yashji did see Tell Me O Kkhuda and really liked Esha’s performance. He was kind enough to call up and say how much he liked the film and Esha.”

While reliable sources insist that Esha is a part of Chopra’s next directorial venture, Yash Raj’s official spokesperson denied it. Source

When Kareena Kapoor was approached for RA.ONE, it wasn’t just the tag of ‘biggest film’ and ‘biggest hero’ that was enticing enough for her. She also wanted Shahrukh Khan to ensure that the film had at least one ‘killer track’ that won’t just be the ‘hottest song of the year’ but also a class apart. Shahrukh consented and this is how ‘Chammak Challo’ was born with ‘Criminal’ being an icing on the cake.

“It’s a given that RA.ONE would be watched by millions across the globe. Bebo was conscious about this, more so since it’s an action movie and is centered on battle between Shahrukh and Arjun. She had to make her presence felt really strong and had a heart to heart conversation with Shahrukh,” informs a source, “He further assured her that she didn’t have to bother at all and made her hear ‘Chammak Challo’ which was designed just for her. Post that she didn’t have any hesitation whatsoever as she knew she had hit jackpot.” More
