Source: NDTV Entertainment News | 20 Dec 2008 | 5:45 pm Is Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi responsible for the expected success of Ghajini?Click above for more movie stills Ghajini is all set to embark on a historic start in less than a week from now (the film begins its paid previews from Wednesday evening itself!) and in some way, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi deserves some part of the credit for that. Reason? Bollywood, which in year 2008 was at an all time low till about 10 days back, suddenly seems a lot more spirited and excited, courtesy the superb response that Adi-SRK combine has generated in the week gone by. The sentiments have perked up overnight and the industry, which was reeling under recession and back to back failures of many a biggies (Yuvvraaj, Drona, Love Story 2050), has started singing a different tune altogether. Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar (who will be striking in less than a month from now, with Chandni Chowk To China) are being hailed as the saviors of the industry even as the third Big Khan has quietly moved out of the reckoning with the huge failure of Yuvvraaj. Coming to Ghajini and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi connection, the super success of the latter has proven one point that people have actually visited theaters in hordes in spite of mood of the entire nation being gloomy and depressing for last so many days. Now if only the film would have been bad or it would have failed to excite any audience to step into theaters at all in the first place, the negativity, in all probability, would have rubbed into Ghajini as well. Though Aamir Khan would still have managed to pull in substantial audience, the kind of buzz that the film is carrying today is unparalleled for which one can't help but thank Shah Rukh Khan and his Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi enough. Also, after spending mega bucks in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, if audiences would have disliked the film, they would have been hesitant to venture into theaters again within just a fortnight. Looking at such scenarios, one can be assured that Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi has paved the way for Ghajini to go ahead and make huge bucks for itself too. The message for the Aamir Khan starrer is - 'See, we made good money in spite of release timing which was not so positive while reviews too were mixed. Now you have all going in your favor so why don't you go for the kill!' No wonder, Aamir Khan is going all out to make sure that Ghajini fetches record first week collections on its 24th December release. The way it is in news day and night out, Ghajini has made many a commoners box office analysts with numbers like 40 crores, 50 crores, 60 crores being thrown up in air as if they were candies up for grab. And no, I am not talking about the film's budget or its final collections! These are the first week numbers around which bets are being laid all around. Well, while a record breaking opening week is pretty much on the cards (beware Singh Is Kinng, Om Shanti Om, Golmaal Returns, Dhoom 2), one waits to see if Ghajini indeed turns out to be Bollywood's first film that would go on to cross the 100 crore net collections mark in India alone.Source: BollywoodHungama.com Features | 20 Dec 2008 | 2:39 pm Aamir is a Himesh fan, and Himesh can't stop gigglingFar off in Palanpur where Himesh Reshammiya is shooting for John Mathew's A New Love Issshtory the musician-actor can't believe what he has heard. At a press conference on Thursday, Aamir Khan went out of his way to praise Himesh calling him a master of marketing. "So much so that wherever and whenever I see a topi, I think of Himesh," said Aamir. Though a lot of people felt Aamir was being ironical, Himesh of course chooses to take the seeming compliments on their face value. "I am a huge fan of Mr Aamir Khan. He's a legend. And what a coincidence that I'm shooting for a film where I play a tapori who's a big fan of Aamir Khan. The role is inspired by Mr. Khan's in Rangeela. In fact my director is John Mathew who directed Mr. Khan in Sarfarosh. Both of us just can't stop talking about him." Himesh's exuberance apart, many people feel Aamir was actually making a sarcastic point, praising Himesh for his marketing strategy at a time when it (the strategy) seems to have collapsed. "Or did Aamir praise Himesh because Himesh is playing a role inspired by Aamir?" asked one of Aamir's co-stars. Says Himesh, "If Mr. Khan has spoken so well about me, I won't even think of questioning it. I take his words as a big compliment. . I've been hearing some terrific stories about Mr. Khan's dedication from John Matthew. I must say he's very very inspiring."Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 20 Dec 2008 | 2:31 pm Shahid Kapoor endorses VIP luggageNews has it that Shahid has turned down a lot of brand endorsement offers lately. Reasons attributed to that include him being selective and very particular about the brands that he endorses. According to a source close to Shahid, the actor wants to endorse only those brands that he strongly believes in. And VIP luggage is one such brand, for which Shahid has been roped in as the brand ambassador. The ad is already out on television and is truly creating waves. Says an expert, "The ad has properly encashed on Shahid's romantic icon status. It is already being appreciated and is bound to become more popular." Talking about the 'Shahid -VIP' development, Atul Kasbekar (whose 'Bling' handles Shahid's endorsement deals) said, "We just loved the script and the involvement of creative stalwarts like R. Balki and Aamir Jalil just proved to be the icing on the cake. Shahid spent time over and above what was needed, to help create a set of commercials that are truly memorable to say the least." Aamir Jalil, whose team directed the ad, said, "It was really fabulous working with Shahid. Not only is he a thorough professional as an actor but also a wonderful human being. Where most stars are concerned about themselves and their visibility, Shahid was concerned for the product. He is a definitely a youth icon. He is the brand for VIP." "Corporate houses queue outside his home hoping to crack a deal with him to endorse their brands. But the actor understands that his fans have a certain image of him and in turn, he has a certain responsibility towards them. He just does not want to disappoint them by signing each and every brand. Since he prefers that there is no brand clutter, even the selective brands that he endorses should benefit the brand." If only all the brand ambassadors were like Shahid...Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 20 Dec 2008 | 2:00 pm White Feather Films ties up with Balaji Motion PicturesIn these times of recession, when all productions houses are cost cutting, the folks at Sanjay Gupta's White Feather Films must be smiling away to glory. The reason? Well, they have managed to pull off not one, not two, but a whopping three film deal with none other than Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Motion Pictures. For the uninitiated, they have had a hugely successful association with White Feather Films earlier with Shootout At Lokhandwala. Reports have it that these films will range in different genres and will differ from mid budget to big budget films and that they will hit the floors in 2009. Talking about this deal, Gautam Kohli, the official spokesperson for White Feather Films said, ''Balaji is a valuable part of our creative plan and we hope to have a long and successful association with them. We are strategically aligning some of our projects with Mumbai Mantra, who are already distributing our film Acid Factory. Apart from that, we have three films in partnership with Eros. We are also in talks with UTV for co-productions. With the stupendous success of Shootout at Lokhandwala, we've established a synergy with Balaji Telefilms and are confident that, together we will make films which will be trail-blazers. We are happy that White Feather Films is foraying into several ventures with the captains of the industry like Balaji, Eros, and UTV. '' We just hope that White Feathers' association with Balaji culminates into a dream run.Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 20 Dec 2008 | 1:53 pm Shah Rukh scared to work with me: Aamir KhanBollywood actor Aamir Khan has said Shah Rukh Khan is scared to work with him and that is why they do not do any films together.Source: IndiaeNews.com: Bollywood News | 20 Dec 2008 | 12:01 pm
