Politics is a touchy subject and creates controversies, so much so that a making a film on politics is a risk few filmmakers are willing to take. However Prakash Jha, who's dirtied his hands in the rough and tumble of actual politics, and even fought a general election, is a master when it comes to making movies on political subjects: Gangaajal, Apaharan and now Raajneeti.
Produced by UTV Motion Pictures and Prakash Jha, Raajneeti was shot in Bhopal entirely and took approximately 800 man days to complete 175 visual effects shots. Pixion, one of India's leading vfx houses added sheen to the film. Prasad Sutar the VFX Supervisor & Creative Head at Pixion worked in tandem with Prakash Jha on the pre-production & on location to setthe scale required for the film.
Prasad Sutar adds "We started preproduction before the principal photography. Based on the location and the shots we decided on the number of junior artists and crowd to be pulled in. We executed this project in one and a half months along with Viral Thakkar, vfx head, Ranadheer Reddy, Compositing head and Pankaj Kaliband, Compositng Lead."
Sutar is all praise for the director, "Prakash Jha is a one man army and was on top all process of the film while in production, and the same remained while we working at Pixion during the post."

Source: NDTV Entertainment News | 23 Jun 2010 | 7:34 am Rahman re-schedules North American leg of his Jai Ho series of concerts After some super-successful shows in New York, New Jersey and Washington DC, Academy Award Winner A.R. Rahman was forced to cancel his show scheduled to take place on June 19 at Detroit following an infrastructure collapse at The Pontiac Silverdome. The incident occurred during stage construction prior to the show and fortunately no one was seriously injured. However, the sad news is that following this freak incident, Rahman has decided to re-schedule the North American leg of his Jai Ho- The Journey Home series of concerts.
Says the acclaimed music director, "As you may know, members of our tour miraculously escaped a big disaster in Detroit this past Saturday, when part of the Pontiac Silverdome infrastructure collapsed on our set. All the artists, singers, musicians, dancers, technicians (myself included) have been almost given a second life. We are working to recoup all that has been lost (the lights, the sets) which will take us over three weeks to complete. The vision for the show includes beautiful choreography and circus acts and it feels less than, not to include them. All the world over, the show has received a very positive response from those who have seen it, which makes it absolutely necessary for us to present a complete show and feature all the components that were lost due to the incident."
Rahman adds, "With that, we have decided to postpone the remaining dates of the North American leg of this tour and will reschedule them at a later date. We will go ahead with the concerts scheduled in Europe and UK. That is the best option we have, considering the circumstances."
He also had a word of consolation for his fans in US and Canada who have been eagerly waiting to see him perform live. Says Rahman, "While I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our friends in the U.S. and Canada, maybe it's a blessing in disguise, as we will have the opportunity to perform for you with even more energy and perfection. Once again, let us all pray that we are alive and thank you in advance for your understanding, love and cooperation."
Rahman's world tour will now resume in Zurich on July 16 followed by a string of concerts across UK and Europe.Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 23 Jun 2010 | 6:54 am NYT reviews Knight and Day

Source: Entertainment - Google News | 23 Jun 2010 | 4:07 am Prakash Jha's special gift for Vasundhara Raje and 70 MLAs For those 70 MLAs and Vasundhara Raje who have got themselves into serious trouble for watching a pirated DVD of Prakash Jha's Raajneeti in a luxury hotel in Rajasthan on Tuesday, Jha has a special gift coming up.
He will gift a legitimate DVD of the film to each of the MLAs when the DVD is officially released in two weeks' time.
"I hope they would finally see the difference between the grainy bootleg version of the film that they allegedly saw in Jaipur and a legally manufactured DVD of Raajneeti," says Jha a tad caustically.
However, the sizzling love-making scene between Arjun Rampal and Shruti Seth would be deleted from the DVD, since Prakash doesn't want our politicians to get "unnecessarily worked-up when there's so much to be done in building the nation."
On Tuesday, June 15, over 70 MLAs of the BJP allegedly watched the film on a spurious DVD projected on to a large screen.
Says the director, "Apparently, these MLAs couldn't tell the difference between a pirated DVD and legitimate DVD. It's a pity a politician of Vasundhara Raje's stature couldn't tell the difference between being on the right or wrong side of the law."
Jha says he would've happily arranged a special legitimate screening of Raajneeti for the MLAs.
Apparently, an FIR has been filed against the MLAs. But Prakash doesn't believe the law can be effective in a case of viewing a pirated DVD. "At the most, the police will visit the hotel where the MLAs allegedly viewed the DVD. There will be no evidence of their wrongdoing. The matter will end there."
But the director known for his socio-political exposes won't allow the matter to due down. Prakash Jha has more constructive plans for exposing the nexus between piracy and politics. In a political thriller that he plans, he intends to incorporate a sequence showing politicians enjoying the clandestine screening of a film. To add to the irony, the film that these politicians would be watching is Raajneeti.
Says our Jha, "It is very important for politicians to set the right example, especially the ones who are taken seriously like Mrs Vasundhara Raje. And we need to create an awareness of political responsibilities through cinema."Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 23 Jun 2010 | 4:05 am India shivers, six months lateThe Descent sequel is one of the Top 20 horror films of the decade.Source: | 23 Jun 2010 | 4:04 am Angelina Joile becomes DraupadiIndian filmmaker Prakash Jha has a dream project Draupadi, in which he wants to cast Hollywood star Anjelina Jolie in the lead role.

Source: Entertainment - Google News | 23 Jun 2010 | 3:58 am "All directors I am working with currently are very loyal for Dharma" - KJo
Despite recession, the only independent filmmaking house which went on to helm a number of back to back projects was Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. Despite the man himself directing only one film - My Name Is Khan - he went on to allocate number of first or second time directors to kick start numerous films.
Ayan Mukerji delivered a hit in Wake Up Sid, another debutant Rensil D'Silva wasn't as fortunate with Kurbaan while Tarun Mansukhani made good progress with his animation flick Koochie Koochie Hota Hai and is now getting ready to begin the shooting of Dostana 2. Meanwhile, Siddharth Malhotra has wrapped up We Are Family, remake of Stepmom, Punit Malhotra is all set for the release of I Hate LUV Storys and another newcomer Karan Malhotra has been entrusted with the responsibility of directing Agneepath remake.
With so much happening, one wonders if it indeed becomes difficult for Karan to hold the reins and work on half a dozen projects simultaneously?
"Believe me; it's not difficult at all. All of you have to do is follow a three point 'mantra' - 'Delegation', 'Outsourcing' and 'Trust'. Along with that, if you have the right vision and infrastructure in place, which we do have in Dharma Productions, it isn't difficult to crack it all", explains Karan, "That's the way you manage things and I have been fortunate enough to have a team with which it has become possible to helm number of projects at the same time".
Does he have a contract with all the new directors who kick start their career with his production house?
"Well, we start off with an understanding to make 2-3 films and then they can move on if it is mutually agreeable", says Karan, "More than any written contract, what is most important for me is the loyalty factor. Fortunately, all the directors with whom I am working currently are very loyal for Dharma. I do believe that loyalty is such a rare facet. You can't buy it; it has to come by itself."
Meanwhile, he is happy that for a young film like I Hate LUV Stoys, he had a young director like Punit Malhotra in charge. "The film is looking good because of the very fact that Imran and Sonam are young and they are working with a young director like Punit. This has resulted in a sense of youthfulness in the entire process of filmmaking."
No wonder, it is expected that the film would explore the untapped side of Imran and Sonam.
"The very fact that the two haven't come together earlier is something that works in the film's advantage", says Karan, "Their pairing is contributing a lot to this film because it has led to a lot of curiosity value. Both Imran and Sonam have done such a splendid job and they compliment each other exceedingly well."Source: BollywoodHungama.com Features | 23 Jun 2010 | 3:55 am Salman takes away SRK's friends - Times of India

Sonal Chauhan, the dusky beauty who was last seen in Jannat opposite Emraan Hashmi, is back with a 'brand' in a new advertisement for Dish TV with none other than the Baadshah of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan.
Bollywood Hungama caught up with the beautiful actress to find out more, who willingly tells us, "Yes actually, we have finished with the shoot for the ad about 25 days ago and currently it is being aired on TV networks."
Talking about working with SRK, she says, "It was such a pleasure to shoot with SRK. Firstly, I am a big admirer of his, so when I was approached for the ad by the ad director, I was more than willing. There was no way I was going to say no."
"The ad itself was shot very fast. I think the reason for this is that Shah Rukh is such a magnificent person that all his shots were done in just a single take, besides one more thing I noticed while shooting at Yash Raj studios was that SRK is such a gentleman."
Coming to her films, Sonal says, "My film with Owais Hussain is ready, and currently it is being edited since we have finished shooting. However, I cannot tell you anymore as Owais is the best person to speak to about this. Apart from this, I have another film lined up but again, I can't tell you much as it's still a bit too early."Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 22 Jun 2010 | 8:42 am Check Out: Kareena's dhamakedaar entry atop moving car in Golmaal 3
When it's a Rohit Shetty film, you can be sure of some high octane action sequences which include the likes of cars blasting, actors standing on top of moving bikes, etc. While his actors are expected to do some heavy-duty action sequences in his films, this time for his latest film Golmaal 3, Rohit Shetty decided to get his actress Kareena Kapoor also to do a dhamakedaar stunt sequence.
Kareena, who was also seen in Rohit's Golmaal Returns, will now be seen making a dramatic entry by standing on the bonnet of a moving car in Golmaal 3 Bebo insisted on performing the daredevil stunt scene herself and ended up doing the scene like a pro. Says a source who was present on the sets, "It was a very difficult scene. Not only did Kareena have to maintain her balance but she also had to get her expressions right. She agreed to do the stunt on the condition that the director, Rohit Shetty, would drive the car himself. Kareena was tied with a harness and had a support but the car was taking turns. It was quite a tough stunt."
So it was Rohit indeed who sat on the driver's seat when Kareena pulled off this amazing stunt. Bebo on her part seems to have had a ball doing this daredevil stunt sequence. Says the gorgeous actress, "I have had an absolutely fantastic time shooting for the film. The entry sequence was planned this way and Rohit explained it to me in detail. When he is around, I have nothing to worry about. In the final analysis, the shot looks amazing."
Well, we are sure fans of Bebo can't wait to watch her in her new daredevil avatar.Source: BollywoodHungama.com Features | 22 Jun 2010 | 7:53 am Gypsy Rose Lee: memoir based on queen off striptease ready for showGypsy is very renowned Broadway musicals.

Katrina Kaif's plans to fly down to Mumbai for a day to celebrate the Raajneeti success on June 23 from Spain where she is shooting for Zoya Akhtar's Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara have been dropped.
Apparently, inclement weather has made it impossible for her to be let off for even a day. Setting aside her habitual work-comes-first-party-later attitude, she even requested the film's producers and director to accommodate her absence for less than day.
Says a source close to Katrina, "Since Prakash Jha was very, very keen to have her down to Mumbai for the bash, and had even made all the arrangements for her flight, Katrina was not willing to give up the idea of attending the function. She offered to be back in less than 24 hours. Katrina was willing to fly to Mumbai, attend the Raajneeti bash on Wednesday and fly out quickly the same night to re-join the Dobara team the next morning. But she is not allowed."
The Raajneeti team has a lot to celebrate about. But Prakash Jha wanted no celebration until his lucky mascot Katrina Kaif was available. Unfortunately, Zoya Akhtar's crew has been facing rough weather ever since they arrived in Spain. Apparently, 6 days of shooting had to be cancelled because of heavy rains. And now they need to make up for lost time quickly since their work permits and visas would expire.
Prakash Jha admits that Katrina would be unable to make it to the Raajneeti celebration party on June 23. "They've lost a lot of time because of the rain in Spain. I couldn't dream of having a Raajneeti bash without Katrina. And I had postponed it until her availability. But now it's impossible for Katrina to fly down."
Prakash will now record a video message with Katrina and play it at the party. "So she will be with us in spirit if not in person," he smirks.
Katrina on the other hand tried to sound diplomatic and non-disappointed. "It is a big day. And the success of Raajneeti is very precious to me. But I can't leave the crew in Spain."
She admits there're lots of unscheduled breaks. Katrina has got one of her sister Melissa to join her in Spain to give her company at break time.
Says Katrina, "London is just two hours, so Melissa could join me. Mumbai is in another hemisphere. Flying down is impossible. Please tell Prakashji, Mera party baqi raha."Source: BollywoodHungama.com News | 22 Jun 2010 | 4:04 am Osama, Hitler themes - taking the road less travelled in BollywoodA spin-off on Osama Bin Laden, an interesting tale on Hitler --- with such offbeat themes debutant directors Rakesh Ranjan Kumar and Abhishek Sharma are taking the road less travelled in Bollywood without worrying about the box-office response.Source: Entertainment News | 22 Jun 2010 | 3:36 am
