Katrina’s and Barbara have same movie titles

Katrina Kaif, Barbara Mori

Barbara Mori’s new Spanish film My Brother’s Wife will be releasing in India this month along with the titles A Beautiful Wife in English with Spanish beauty featuring in Hindi. The title of Barbara’s next is very similar with the Yash Raj Films new project. This movie stars Imran Khan and Katrina Kaif and it is titled as Mere Brother ki Dulhan. Sources have revealed that both the projects have similar story lines.

My Brother’s Wife theme is adulterous, which deals with a women’s affair with her husband’s brother. However, Yash Raj Films has toned down the same version. Yash Raj has made a film on a guy (Imran) who falls for his brother’s (Ali Zafar) fiancé (Katrina). Mere Brother ki Dulhan is still under production, while Barbara’s movie is set to release in India soon.

An industry insider says, “YRF does not consider Barbara’s film has a threat for their project. They feel its release will not affect the Katrina-Imran starrer, because YRF has given a more romantic tone than an adult one. Even though the basic premise is similar, the treatment will be different.”

The distributors have considered the similarity in the title between Mere Brother ki Dulhan and My Brother’s Wife, the distributors have decided to name Mori’s film A Beautiful Wife. Dhaval Gada from Pen India is distributing this film and says, “We heard about the film Mere Brother ki Dulhan. The title did make us think that the theme of their film maybe similar to out movie, Spanish Beauty. However, we do not know their script or storyline. Anyway, we have tweaked the original story of Spanish Beauty to suit the Indian taste and the film will now reflect the triangular relationship between a husband, wife and the husband’s brother.”

When asked the spokesperson of YRF he denied of any similarities between both the movies. He says, “It is not true. There is no similarity between the two stories whatsoever.”

Salman forgives John

Salman Khan, John Abraham

The ability to forgive and success are interrelated. Success can make you happy, and when you are happy, you can forgive anyone easily. Currently, Salman Khan is exemplifying this state of mind.

Recently, Salman made up with his long-time foe John Abraham in Mehboob studios. These two actors were not on talking terms for more than four years now.

The patch-up took place on the sets of Rohit Dhawan’s directorial debut Desi Boyz, which stars John Abraham, Akshay Kumar, Chitrangada Singh and Deepika Padukone in the leading role, which is being produced under Eros International banner. On chancing with Salman Khan on the sets, John wondered how Salman will react after seeing him.

When they made an eye contact, John smiled. Noticing the discomfort in John’s eyes, Sallu went over and hugged hum. An eyewitness says, “Actually, they both took a few steps towards each other. However, the hug took everyone by surprise. Past that, there was a big celebration on the sets. Salman and John even had lunch together.”

The reason why Salman came on the sets of Desi Boyz, the source says, “Sallu came to meet Akshay Kumar and Sanjay Dutt who are acting in the film. Sanjay’s name was recently added to the cast for a cameo.”

Ages ago, the differences started increasing between Salman and John over payments at their Rockstar stage show in 2006. By the time they came together to work in Ravi Chopra’s Babul, the animosity had increased and it reflected on-screen as well.

After this John continued to work with Salman’s then girlfriend Katrina Kaif in Yash Raj Films’ New York. Meanwhile Salman refused to work with John’s girlfriend Bipasha Basu. The director duo Abbas-Mastn had decided to cast Bipasha and Salman together in a mega project, but the instant Salman came to know who the heroine was he turned down the offer.

This year in June, Salman ended his cold war with Bipasha, though in this situation it was Bipasha who took the first step towards reconciliation. At the award ceremony in Sri Lanka, Bipasha walked over to Salman’s room and spoke to him at length. Since then the two have learnt to maintain a cordial relation with one another. Bipasha attended Salman’s Being Human fashion show as well.

Ram Mirchandani who is the Chief Creative Officer of Eros International was also present on the sets. He confirmed saying, “Yes John and Salman met very warmly. Salman had some to visit Rohit, John, Akshay and Deepika.

Now, the 3rd film is going to begin but without the main trio. The 3rd film is titled Hera Pheri 4 and it will actor Abhishek Bachchan, Nana Patekar and Sanjay Dutt. Sanjay Dutt and Nana Patekar have their own style of comic timing and they have proved it in numerous movies.

But, Abhsihek Bachchan is comparatively new in this genre. He has done a bit of it in Dostana but it was just a part and Hera Pheri is already a completed comedy and it will be very difficult for the actor to live up to the audience expectations.The chemistry of Akshay, Sunil and Paresh Rawal was no doubt watch worthy. Can Abhi match up to the charm of comedy king Akshay Kumar, who brings out the comic moments so naturally?

Mercury soared up like never before when Pamela Anderson entered the Big Boss house as a celebrity guest last night, attired in a white saree by Ashley Rebello.

Saif Ali Khan to play Krish of Chetan Bhagat’s ‘2 States’

Chetan Bhagat’s novels have already been made into successful movies earlier with like Hello (”One Night At The Call Centre”) and 3 Idiots (”5 Point Someone”). However, Bhagat was not so keen into personal involvement in both these flicks but since Siddhartha Anand’s ‘2 States’, a film adaptation of Chetan Bhagat’s book, based on his own real-life experience, of a Punjabi boy who wants to marry his Tamil sweetheart but only with the consent of both their parents, is closer to his heart, he is taking keen interest in the film.
Saif Ali Khan has been chosen to play the lead and the actor plans to spend time with Chetan Bhagat to understand his character, Krish, and get into Krish’s mind. Says Bhagat on the film, “It is not important for Krish to be played by a Punjabi or Ananya to be played by a Tamilian. I’m aware Saif is not a Punjabi. To me that serves the story’s purpose even better. The whole idea of 2 States is to convey a pan-India appeal. The novel is about an inter-state union. What better way to show this than to have a non-Punjabi actor playing my Punjabi protagonist?”
Bhagat admits that 2 States is his most personal novel to date and the screen adaptation most precious to him. “Like Krish in my novel I fell in love with a Tamil girl and we decided to marry only with the parents’ consent. In the film Ek Duuje Ke Liye when the Tamil boy decides to marry the Punjabi girl, their parents slap and beat up their respective offsprings. Aaj ke din kaun bachche maar khayenge? (Which children will submit to that today?) So you could say 2 States is like Ek Duuje Ke Liye meeting Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge,” he says.

Inspite of being here for only some years, Kangna Ranaut has carved her niche in Bollywood with her innocent beauty and acting skills. She also has a national award to flaunt.

She went for a change in ‘Life In A Metro’ and also in her latest hit ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbai’, but is back to the same mentally disturbed role in her forthcoming release ‘No Problem’, though with a difference.
“I know what you must be thinking,” laughs Anees Bazmee, the writer and director of the film, “In fact in the promo itself she declares that woh sabse badi paagal hai. However, it is all done in a funny manner here in ‘No Problem’ instead of taking it all seriously.”
“Kangna plays Sanjana who believes that she is the most beautiful girl on earth. This is a kind of role that she has never done before. Her entire look too has gone through a complete makeover in the film. I am sure audience will really like this new ‘roop’ of hers,” added Bazmi.

However Sabir is quick to explain and says, “I don’t think it really makes a difference if the leading lady is taller than the hero.
“We opted for Deepika Padukone because we needed a face that could look contemporary and classical. Among the current line-up of actresses, only she could measure up to my script’s demands. As for Shahid, he’s an intense actor. I’m positive this pair can project the pangs of passionate love,” he added.
We, on our part, are waiting eagerly to see this fresh pair create magic on the screen.

Sonakshi Sinha in an urban role for Farah Khan’s next

Though Sonakshi Sinha got rave reviews and enough applause for her beauty and also her performance in the superhit ‘Dabangg’, it was Malaika Arora Khan who grabbed the oomph trophy for her item number ‘Munni Badnaam’. Now, Sonakshi is coming with Akshay Kumar in Farah Khan’s next but she won’t have a sizzling item number in the movie as there is no scope for it.
Says Farah Khan who is the co-producer of the film along with Shirish Kunder and Akshay Kumar, “Rest assured, she wouldn’t be getting into a ‘Sheila Ki Jawani’ mode for our next film. After all her role in the film doesn’t demand that such a situation for that at all.”
After Katrina’s dance number in my upcoming film, I know that audience will expect yet another stylized yet sensual item song from Sonakshi as well. However, we can’t place an item number just for the sake of it”, she added.
However, Sonakshi will be seen in a glamorous and urban role in the film as director Shirish says, “Sonakshi plays an urban girl in the film so yes, she would be seen in the Western outfits. I am aware that audience want more of her after DABANGG. With our film, there would be a handful of her as she has a role of substance. She isn’t there just for 3-4 scenes.” This is Shirish’s second film after JAAN-E-MANN.

I remember one time, when my sister, the one who’s a year older than me, and I were tugging at a doll and ripped her arm off. That Barbie was never replaced. It remains one of my most poignant memories.”
Katrina, who is in news all over for her latest rage ‘Sheila Ki Jawani’ in Farah Khan’s Tees Maar Khan, says, “These days, I’m being called Barbie and Sheila, half and half. Yes, I’ve worn a half-sari, but the song is not so much about clothes as it is about the attitude. That’s Farah’s strength,” she points out.

Deepika is the next Munni….

While Katrina Kaif is already scorching up screens with her Sheila Ki Jawani number in Tees Maar Khan, her archrival Deepika Padukone is aggressively sexing up her own act. She will feature in the title track of Rohan Sippy’s, Dum Maro Dum.
The song, Dum Maro Dum, was a smash hit in Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971), featuring Dev Anand and Zeenat Aman. The song is being re-worked by Pritam and will have Jaideep Sahni’s lyrics.
According to a source, “This track will be the climax song and will be shot at Mehboob studio, where a jungle set will be put up and will be choreographed by Ceaser. A lot of laser will be used. It will have a hip hop-cum-rave party set-up, but Deepika won’t be seen as a hippie.”

Shahrukh mocked in Farah’s upcoming flick…

Farah Khan’s upcoming film Tees Maar Khan, will see a spoof of SRK. The film has a scene where Akshaye Khanna plays an intense and over-expressive actor who suffers from backache. So for his treatment, he has to fly off to London.
Doesn’t this remind you of something similar that happened in the past???
Okay! SRK has had a medical procedure done in London to get rid of his backache problem.
Not just this. In the flick, Akshaye is offered a role by Danny, who is an international filmmaker. Akshaye refuses the role after making him wait for hours The role is then grabbed by Anil Kapoor who wins an Oscar for his performance, leaving Akshaye gnashing his teeth with regret.
Just to remind you, British director Danny Boyle had first approached SRK to play the quizmaster in his multiple-Oscar winning film Slumdog Millionaire, but SRK turned it down and the role went to Anil Kapoor who won international acclaim through the film.
Noz these similarities can’t be co-incidence. It clearly points out towards SRK who is the butt of joke in Farah’s new film Tees Maar Khan.

Box Office reports…

Deepika Padukone-Imran Khan’s rom-com Break Ke Baad failed to live up to the box office expectations. However, the film produced by Kunal Kohli in association with Reliance Big Pictures and directed by debutant director Danish Aslam, seems to be on safe grounds mainly thanks to its correct economics.
The movie did not have a very great start and couldn’t pick up over the weekend too. It has collected Rs 10.50 crore approx from its first weekend.
The film did business of Rs 3 crore approx on Friday and collected Rs 3.75 crore approx on Saturday. The Sunday collections couldn’t get better and was the same as Saturday with approx Rs 3.75 crore. Further, the movie dropped badly on Monday with business of Rs 1.50 crore approx. The movie can manage around Rs 5-5.25 crore approx over the weekdays, and its collection may go up to Rs 16 crore approx for the first week.
Though the theatrical performance of Break Ke Baad is not good, the film should manage to earn the revenue of Rs 33 crore against investment of 25 crore which is 32% return and proportionately better than the hit theatrical performers like My Name Is Khan, Housefull and Once Upon A Time In Mumbai, reveals trade reports. Break Ke Baad is sold for Rs 13 crore for its satellite rights while music and home video rights added another Rs 5 crore, making it Rs 18 crore for the non-theatrical rights.
The other releases of the week Allah Ke Banday and A Beautiful Wife aka Spanish Beauty received very poor response from the audience.

Imran Khan connects his character in “Break Ke Baad” to his real life..

Imran Khan initially wasn’t sure about dating girlfriend Avantika. Here is what he has to say about his relationship, connecting it to his latest flick, ‘Break Ke Baad’.
Imran was asked, like most of his friends, has he ever taken a break in a relationship?
I personally don’t believe in the concept of a break. I believe either you are in a relationship or you’re not. There is nothing like a break. If the relationship is not working out then one should opt out of the relationship. It’s like making a reservation for a table in the restaurant and not occupying it as well without letting it go. So it’s something I don’t understand.
How does he connect his character in “Break Ke Baad” to his real life?
I play a character very similar to myself in real life. Not many get a chance to do that. Abhay Gulati is someone who has been in a long-term relationship just like me, and doesn’t believe in the concept of taking a break in a relationship. When I started off with Avanatika I was not sure what I wanted to do but I just fell in love with her and that’s how Abhay Gulati is, who is clueless about his career and wants to get married to Aaliya (Deepika).
How is “Break Ke Baad” any ‘different’ from the other ‘different’ love stories released in recent times?
Break Ke Baad is a film which I feel the audience will be able to connect to. A film that today’s youngsters can easily relate too because somewhere it’s been happening with them around. Love stories are about boy meets girl and falls in love but Break Ke Baad shows what takes place in a relationship and how one deals with it.
Since you have been in a long-term relationship, have either of you ever felt the need for a break? What are the alternatives to taking a break in a relationship?
Every relationship goes through some ups and downs and not necessarily all land up in breakups. In my relationship neither I nor Avantika ever believed in the concept of a break. Whatever issues came up, we solved them between the two of us and that’s the reason why I’m now getting married to her. We have been together over eight and a half years now.
