Supersize Oscars give Hollywood a stimulus package
Source: NDTV Entertainment News | 8 Mar 2010 | 8:07 am Karan introduces JKSAH; ends rift with Nikhil Advani
Call it cliched but it's an oft repeated statement when it comes to relationships in Bollywood - 'Nothing is permanent in the industry; whether it is friendship or enmity'. This is why it always makes for a pleasant sight when misunderstandings are cleared and relationships come back to normalcy.
This is what happened recently with Karan Johar and Nikhil Advani, friends for over three decades, who parted ways after Kal Ho Naa Ho. It came as a shocker for quite a few because the film was a major success at the box office and many believed that this 'jodi' would go on to make many more blockbusters in the years to come. Unfortunately that was not the case to be as both treaded different paths in years to follow.
Karan Johar went on to make films with other fresh talent while Nikhil too went independent with films like Salaam- E- Ishq and Chandni Chowk To China. However, it was obvious that both men wouldn't be carrying bad blood for a long duration. With a passage of time, things settled down and both Karan and Nikhil were ready with their next films - My Name Is Khan and Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai (directed by debutant Milap Zaveri) respectively. Nikhil openly supported Karan when My Name Is Khan was facing trouble around its release. Meanwhile, what came as a pleasant surprise to all was when Karan spearheaded the campaign for Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai by deciding to introduce the film, its theme and the cast to the world.
This happened at a recently held award function which was co-hosted by Karan Johar. Not just did he announce the arrival of Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai in theatres soon, he also took a personal interest in stating quite a few flattering things about this romantic comedy which stars Riteish Deshmukh and Jacqueline Fernandez as the lead pair. Ensuring that the film gets visibility not just in front of the bigwigs of the film fraternity who were present at the event that was held last week, he (in a way) also announced in a subtle way that he didn't carry any ill-will for Nikhil and his film.
No wonder, writer turned director Milap can be seen smiling from ear to ear. "For me it was a great professional as well as personal moment. For Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai, I obviously want the best. After all it is my first baby. We were aware about the award ceremony and since our film arrives in a month from now, it made sense to have a launch at the biggest of the platforms. What better way to do it than by having someone of the stature of Karan Johar going ahead and talking about your film."
However, while this was a dream that he nurtured, there was always this bit of hesitation around whether Karan would agree to support his film. Milap discussed this with Nikhil and together they decided to approach Karan.
"It didn't take a moment for Karan to say yes to my request", says Milap in a cheerful tone, "Once he heard the concept of the film (which is about a girl from Venus arriving at Earth to find true love), he promised to give his full support. Never once did he bring up the topic of the rift that he had with Nikhil years back. This is why for me it was a personal win as well because no one seemed to be carrying a grudge any more."
When contacted, Nikhil said, "It is a personal matter so it won't be fair on my part to discuss too much around this. Having said that, it is always nice when people support your film. People grow up in life and we have done that as well. Karan has been a dear friend for 37 years and him taking up the mantle to kick start Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai was a great moment for all of us. Now it's upon us to use this platform to our benefit and take the promotion forward. Milap has made a beautiful film and we are very proud of it."
With music by Sajid Wajid and lyrics by Sameer, Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai is presented by Warner Bros and is a co-production of Nikhil Advani and Mukesh Talreja. Also starring Ruslaan Mumtaz, Sonal Sehgal and Vishal Malhotra in principal roles, the film releases all over on 9th April.Source: BollywoodHungama.com Features | 8 Mar 2010 | 7:13 am Big B to star in Raj Kumar Santoshi's The Outsider
He is by far the most revered Bollywood personality and almost adored as a demi-god, he is none other than 'Superstar of the Millennium' Amitabh Bachchan. The only star to constantly make the headlines for almost anything he does is in the lime light once again this time for his next film.
Big B has reportedly signed a film titled The Outsider with director Raj Kumar Santoshi, being produced under the banner of Firoz Nadiadwala. Speaking about the film on his blog Bachchan says, "Finally, I have accepted Raj Kumar Santoshi's new project called The Outsider to be produced under the banner of Firoz Nadiadwala. After shaking hands he excitedly connected me to Gaffar Bhai his illustrious Father, a great name in film production and with whom I was coming together after a huge gap. I think we did something in 1973, perhaps Adalat and then nothing. He was nostalgic and happy as was I."
The Outsider will mark the reunion of Amitabh Bachchan with Raj Kumar Santoshi after their last film Family-Ties of Blood which bombed at the box office.Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 8 Mar 2010 | 6:43 am Pattinson's love for dog upsets his family

By now its common knowledge that Shah Rukh Khan and Arjun Rampal are close friends. The duo have starred together in super-hit films like Don and Om Shanti Om. Shah Rukh even made a fleeting appearance in Arjun's home production I See You that released a few years ago. Now SRK and Arjun Rampal will once again be seen together in Shah Rukh's home production Ra.1 to be directed by Anubhav Sinha.
While Shah Rukh plays a super-hero kind of a character in the film, the buzz is that Arjun will be playing his nemesis. The sci-fi film which is expected to go on floors very soon features Kareena Kapoor as the female lead.Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 8 Mar 2010 | 5:07 am Katrina improvises her Hindi for Raajneeti
Katrina Kaif has a point to prove in Raajneeti. It's not just the National Award that she's aiming to get with her performance. It's the long-winded rhetorical dialogues that she wants to get tone-and-pitch-perfect so that once and for all no one would ever say she can't speak Hindi fluently.
Surrounded in the cast with stalwarts like Naseeruddin Shah, Manoj Bajpai and Nana Patekar who spoke super-fluent Hindi and Urdu and constantly ribbed about her chee-chee Hindi by her co-stars specially Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina has taken a vow to wow with her command over the desi language.
In fact, every time director Prakash Jha wanted to get Katrina's attention on location, he would jokingly threaten to get her lines dubbed by another artiste.
Not only did she get herself a private Hindi-Urdu tutor, she also got her director Prakash Jha to work on her dialogues and their delivery for extra hours.
And now moving away from conventional dubbing techniques, Katrina is actually doing her lines twice every day, once on her own and then in her director's presence.
Confirming this double-delivery duty that Katrina has taken on Prakash Jha says, "She once goes through the lines on her own the entire day. Then in the evening whatever words and lines I feel need improvement, she happily dubs them again. I've never seen such determination in anyone before. On location in Bhopal once when she had to do a sequence with Nana Patekar where she had to repeat the swearing-in oath- ceremony with Nana after winning an election, Katrina panicked about the long words and lines. She pleaded with me to cancel the shooting, prepared the whole day and then delivered perfect dialogues the next day."
The dubbing for Raajneeti is also very important for Katrina to be eligible for the National Award next year. When Prakash suggested that he might need to get a dubbing artiste to do Katrina's intricate dubbing she had protested strongly pointing out her chances at the National Awards would be nixed.
Predicts Prakash, "After Raajneeti no one would ever accuse of Katrina not knowing Hindi."
Adds Katrina, "It was a challenge I set for myself. I've always paid that extra attention to my dubbing. But Raajneeti is really tough. Was I challenged by other actors speaking such fluent Hindi in Raajneeti? No, I always look at only myself as competition."
Katrina admits her Hindi has improved considerably after working in Raajneeti. "None of my roles so far required any specific fluency in the way I spoke. When I got a chance I decided to work on it really hard."Source: BollywoodHungama.com Features | 8 Mar 2010 | 4:55 am Oscars: Who wore what

Source: NDTV Entertainment News | 8 Mar 2010 | 4:24 am Guess Who?
We bet that the weekend gone by was as lovely and lively as the week to come. So, let us all, in one voice, kick-start this week not just by unanimously wishing "Good Morning dearies", but also running our neurons wild while solving the quiz, that by now the world would like to call as 'Guess Who'!
The mysterious star for this week is anything but a mystery. All that we can say is that he started off his innings with the camera by playing a 'professional' of a certain profession', which practically every youngster wants to go in, during their growing up years, all thanks to the 'battalion' of thoughts. His immediate second serial was a place where everyone (irrespective of their age) go for recreation. Our star for today, in no time, rose from a mere TV actor to someone, who today, has the money and the power to launch his own channel! Let us be very blunt and say that we are not giving any clues on this star, as one single clue will lead the mystery element fall like a pack of cards!
For those who have cracked this week's 'Guess Who', look no further and simply post your answers below:

Source: NDTV Entertainment News | 8 Mar 2010 | 3:47 am "I'm planning to direct Akad in 2011" - Arshad Warsi
From acting to producer to a director. If there is one name which hits your mind instantly after thinking of these three ingredients of filmmaking, you've got to get Aamir Khan in first. But the new name to enter the domain of three in one is Arshad Warsi. The actor turned producer reveals, "There is a friend of mine who is a journalist. He had a concept, an idea. So one day, we just started chatting about what he had thought. It was a nice little story. We wanted to make a very quirky action comedy. It's a little bit on the Guy Ritchie side and the Tarantino side. That's the fact and I have nothing to hide."
Yes, Arshad had nothing to hide and why should he? On further questioning, he opens up a few more cards. Warsi says, "There is humour with seriousness. I wouldn't say that it is going to be like a Kaminey. The film starts with the last scene of the film, then goes here and there, then it jumps up and down. As a director, it is the most difficult script to work on. I've got the picture in my head and so I have decided to direct it. If I give it to someone else, and if he doesn't get the clear picture, chances are there the film can go very wrong. It's tough film to direct."
For a new entrant, we're sure any film is a tough one to direct but knowing Arshad's prowess in acting, we're sure he'll do a decent job behind the camera too. So before he ends his talk on his decided direction, we quiz him one last time on the title of his film. He smiles and says, "I don't know why I'm telling you all this but I guess that's how I am. At the moment, we've tentatively titled the film Akad. I'm planning to direct Akad in 2011."Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 8 Mar 2010 | 3:23 am How top Oscar Winners fared at the box officeDomestic box-office totals through February for the most-honored films at the 82nd annual Academy Awards.

What's common to Lewis Wilson, Robert Lowery, Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale and...our very own Ranbir Kapoor? Well, before you start 'flying' for answers, let us tell you that all of these Hollywood actors have played the role of Batman. If you are still wondering what we are talking about, answer for it is in the film Anjaana Anjaani.
Bollywood Hungama got its detective hands laid on some of the most exclusive pics of Ranbir Kapoor, dressed up as Batman in his forthcoming film Anjaana Anjaani. For starters, the said film is being directed by Siddharth Anand and besides Ranbir; it stars Priyanka Chopra, Zayed Khan with Anupam Kher and others.
