The not so very popular Tusshar Kapoor who plays Lucky- the comical mute character in the GOLMAAL Series wishes to now dabble in other genres of acting.

Says Tusshar “I take it as a compliment when people appreciate my roles and comic timing. But as an actor, I want to come out of my comfort zone and dabble in other fare like romance and action once again” 

And the actor is doing just that with his forthcoming films -SHOR, LOVE YOU…MR KALAKAR and HUM TUM AUR SHABANA. However that being said Tusshar Kapoor is not bidding adieu to comedy.

Adds Tusshar, “I can never give up doing comedy .It’s too much fun”

Jeetendra’s son Tusshar Kapoor has expressed a desire to be paired with actress Kareena Kapoor again in a film.

Tusshar wrote on microblogging site Twitter: ‘Of course would love to be paired with Kareena, I think we have great on screen chemistry.’

Both actors were paired opposite each other in two films ‘Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai’ and ‘Jeena Sirf Merre Liye’. They were later seen in ‘Golmaal Returns’, however, Kareena was paired with Ajay Devgn. Source

Bollywood actor Tusshar Kapoor has a lot of regard for his seniors in his industry and wouldn’t think twice about telling off who showed disrespect to them. He talks about a recent shooting for Neeraj Vora’s Run Bhola Run in Film City where he, Govinda, Ameesha Patel and Celina Jaitley were in a jeep. “A group of four young NRIs passed by in a jeep making some derogatory remarks about Govindaji.

I totally lost my cool and gave the guys a piece of my mind,” says Tusshar. The actor sounded them off and told them to go back to finishing school. “It’s very difficult for actors to stand up for themselves. As people from the same fraternity, I feel that we should help each other,” says Tusshar. Source

Tusshar Kapoor is a real true friend. A source close to Tusshar said, “A very dear friend of Tusshar got married recently.

Before tying the knot, the friend had told Tusshar that he wished to honeymoon in Cape Town. He told Tusshar how he loved Cape Town when he watched the film. He also told him that he wanted to be put up in the same hotel that Tusshar had stayed in.”

And guess what Tusshar got that very same suite in the hotel booked for his friend as a gift.

“Tusshar’s gift took his friend by surprise. His friend is looking forward to spending romantic moments with his wife in the hotel in Cape Town,” said the source. Source

Our sources have witnessed a pretty cute outing by two of the oldest dosts Kareena Kapoor and Tusshar Kapoor. The two Kapoors were spotted  entering in a well-known restaurant café in the suburbs for a late night dinner.

Of course we were delighted to see the duo. And they were obviously as thrilled to see us. Kareena looked ravishing in a crisp white salwar-kurta and couldn’t stop talking nineteen-to-the-dozen about what was going on in her life.

It was almost better than the dessert we’d just had. We must say we came away impressed at this enduring friendship. At least now we know that when the gorgeous Bebo calls you a friend, she means it! Source

Abbas-Mustan’s Rumi Jaffery directed ‘Life Partner, is a fun entertainer which stars Govinda, Tusshar Kapoor and Fardeen Khan as the male leads. Playing thick friends in the film, the trio is seen to be having distinct views about the institution of marriage.

Even though he along with Govinda carry an image of being primarily comic stars, Tusshar insists that ‘Life Partner’ is not a regular comedy film in the offering. “Instead I would want to call it as a ‘romantic musical social entertainer’ with a touch of comedy to it”, says Tusshar,

For Tusshar, ‘Life Partner’ would be his next release after a super successful ‘Golmaal Returns’ that had released last year. Even though this film too follows a pucca commercial route, Tusshar asserts that the film has ample moments that would be pretty much identifiable for the common man. Source

As already reported bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan stayed away from Holi celebrations and so did others for various reasons. A sneak peek at how the Bollywood stars spent the day.

Amitabh Bachchan: ‘Nothing! We’re celebrating no Holi this year. Yes, I know our home is an open house on Holi every year. Hopefully we’ll be back to celebrating Holi next year. ‘This year too many tragic events have happened around us. On a personal level, my father’s passing away then my mother’s prolonged illness have suspended Holi celebrations in my house. And then, of course, the things that are happening in Mumbai city and the country. Do you think anyone is in the mood for celebration? We’re not. Maybe next year.’

Preity Zinta: ‘What am I doing for Holi? Nothing. Sleeping the whole day. Recovering from my jet lag after my trip to New Zealand. In any case, I think Holi has lost its original spirit long back.’

Deepika Padukone: ‘I’ll have the day off. I’ll celebrate with my family and close friends.’

Farhan Akhtar: ‘For the time in living memory I won’t be home for Holi. I’ll be shooting abroad. It breaks my heart to miss Holi. Can’t be helped.’

Bipasha Basu: ‘I’ve no Holi plans. I’m allergic to the abeer and other Holi colours. I’ll spend Holi with my family, devouring Holi delicacies. It’s a diet-free day for me.’

Abhishek Bachchan: ‘I’ll be shooting. No Holi this year at home. Just work.’

Genelia D’Souza: ‘I’ll be shooting In Delhi on Holi.’

Hurman S. Baweja: ‘I’ll be shooting in Delhi for ‘It’s My Life’. I think my lightmen, camera crew, director and co-stars will be my Holi victims. Watch out, here I come.’

Himesh Reshammiya: ‘As always I prefer to work on auspicious days. I’ll be recording a new song for ‘Ishq Unplugged’ on Holi.’

Urmila Matondkar: ‘I’m not much of a Holi person. I’ll be chilling at home watching some good movies and hoping no one gets rowdy with women who have to step out of their homes.’

Celina Jaitley: ‘This Holi I’m in Hyderabad. I’ll be spending it with the cast and crew.’

Tusshar Kapoor: ‘I’ll be meeting up with my friends for lunch and not playing Holi, since I stopped doing that long ago.’ Source

After keeping mum in Golmaal Returns, Tusshar Kapoor finally speaks up. He
will now be seen as a typical ‘Gujju Bhai’ in Rumi Jaffrey’s Life Partner.
"Yes…I am playing a typical ‘Gujju’ character called Bhavesh in my next film
Life Partner. He comes from a very traditional Gujarati joint family. My
character is based in South Africa and the story revolves around how this guy
comes to India to get hitched via an arranged marriage", says Tusshar

For the first time in his career, Tusshar would be seen sporting a moustache and
playing a married guy. "Yes I get married mid-way through the film. As for the
moustache, Rumi Jaffrey had a certain vision for the character and this is how
he wanted it to be. Manish Malhotra has done my styling in the film", reveals
Tusshar

Life Partner has Tusshar paired opposite Prachi Desai who recently made a
stunning debut in Rock On. Besides the duo, the film also stars Govinda, Fardeen
Khan and Genelia D’Souza in lead roles. Shooting for this film (produced by
Abbas-Mustan and directed by Rumi Jaffrey) is almost complete and the film
should hit screens in the summer of 2009. Source

Tusshar Kapoor and Celina Jaitley who met on the sets of the film Golmaal Returns in Goa and Bangkok appear to have hit it off so well that industry insiders are speculating whether there’s more than what meets the eye!

Shortly after the two met, Tusshar approached Celina to do a sensuous item song for his home-production, C Kkompany. The two even came together to the premiere of Welcome To Sajjanpur and were spotted at the fashion show of Manish Malhotra, who is a common friend of the two.

If that isn’t enough, the two have only recently been cast opposite each other in Neeraj Vora’s Run Bhola Run, also starring Govinda and Ameesha Patel.

When quizzed, Tusshar diplomatically remarked, “Celina’s a lovely girl and we got along really well on the sets of Golmaal Returns. Why just Celina? I got along very well with everyone on the sets. The unit of Golmaal Returns was a happy and fun family, which is very evident when you watch the film!”

On her part, said Celina, “Tusshar and I aren’t opposite each other in Golmaal Returns but we had a great time on the sets. He’s a great co-star and friend but there’s nothing more to our relationship if that’s what people are trying to imply.” Source

Things are not that well between Tusshar Kapoor and his sister Ekta. We hear the czarina of Indian television had a huge argument with Tusshar over the publicity designs of Balaji Films’ upcoming film C-Company.

The entire publicity campaign was designed by Kapoor jr. Apparently, when Tusshar brought the designs to the office for Ekta’s approval, she rejected them but Tusshar stood his ground as well and insisted that they were fine. What initially started as a difference of opinion ended up in a heated argument.

Some insiders claim the duo did not speak for two days after that and when the things came to a standstill Ekta agreed to meet Tusshar again after ensuring that he incorporates some of her suggestions.

C-Company, directed by Sachin Yardi, stars Tusshar Kapoor (as a crime reporter) and Raima Sen. Mahesh Bhatt, Karan Johar and Sanjay Dutt have important cameos in the film. Source
