'Ko' goes with Shahid or Ranbir?

The kind of magic that KV Anand's 'Ko' created among audience need not be talked about for movie buffs are still smitten by this Jiiva starrer. 'Ko' released this summer and starred Jiiva, Ajmal, Piaa Bajpai and Karthika in lead roles and the movie was an instant hit, what with the unique script and perfect composition of elements in this commercial thriller.

We had earlier reported to you that although many Hindi filmmakers were eyeing on this film and were willing to offer some whooping price for the remake rights of this film, it was Akshay Kumar who bagged it.

Although it was said that Akshay Kumar will don the role of Jiiva in the Hindi version, grapevine is now abuzz that Shahid Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor are being considered for this role, whereas Ajmal will mark his entry in the same role he played in the original, that of an aspiring politician.

However, an official announcement is yet to be made on this front. Do post your comments on who do you think will fit well for this role...

Asin with Puri Jagannath again?

Asin is reported to be the heroine in leading Tollywood director Puri Jagannath's second Bollywood film, said to be the remake of his Telugu hit Amma Nanna O Tamil Ammayi (2003). More details are awaited.

Notably, the original version also starred Asin; it was her debut film in Telugu, for which she bagged the Filmfare award as best actress. Puri Jagannath and Asin later worked in the Nagarjuna starrer Shivamani, which was also a big hit.

Meanwhile, it is confirmed that Puri's next venture The Business Man will be made in Telugu and Hindi simultaneously. Abhishek Bachchan will be the hero in the Hindi version, while Mahesh will play the lead role in the Telugu version. Puri Jagannath will direct both versions and the title will remain the same.

My Reaction to Delhi Belly

Just came back from Delhi Belly, my reaction: OMFG. I was personally shocked to see stuff like profanity and sex on screen. Was NOT expecting that, but at the end we all came out laughing, so we had an awesome time. But I must say, I appreciate Aamir Khan for breaking his stereotype of only decent films. This was a breakthrough for him as a producer. We all enjoyed his cameo at the end! :D Also, the type of movie,Delhi Belly was should be appreciated too. It felt like watching an American Comedy flick on screen, except for the Indian actors and accents. :P :D Totally different from the movies coming out know. Most of it was in English, Im yet to discover why. To say the truth, my friends and my jaw were dropping in many of the scenes,cause we sure didn't know what we were going to face when we went to see the movie. But, the most of it was hilarious! I seriously don't think I have ever laughed this hard for ANY OTHER movie!! All three of the main characters: Imran Khan,Kunal Roy Kapur and Vir Das, were my favs! They were so funny! :D Once again, I was not expecting Shenaz Treasurywala, the last time I saw her was in a Telugu movie, back in 2001. The most used profane word was Fuck. Couldn't they have thought of more words? :P To conclude, I kind of think they tried to make it like an American movie, in which they succeeded but in a awkward way. I recommend this movie to people who are mature to handle the content. :) Oh, and PLEASE DO NOT TAKE YOUR PARENTS. 


My Rating: 4.5/5

'Enthiran' wins honours at IIFA

Awards and accolades continue to chase Superstar Rajinikanth-starrer 'Enthiran', Tamil cinema's biggest blockbuster in 2010. On Sunday, the Shankar directed film won three honours at the 12th International Indian Film Academy Awards (IIFA) in Toronto.

The science-fiction mega-budget venture produced by Sun Pictures won awards in art direction (Sabu Cyril), special effects (Indian Artists) and make-up (Banu) categories. Incidentally, Sabu Cyril won the same award at IIFA 2010 as well.

'Dabangg' (which is now being remade in Tamil by STR and Dharani as 'Vosthi') and 'My Name is Khan' won top honours at IIFA, with the Salman Khan starrer scooping up six trophies in the popular category, while the best actor and director awards went to Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar for 'My Name is Khan'.

'Dabangg', which was the highest grosser last year, was adjudged the best film of 2010

The IIFA provides the climax for three days of moviegoing, dancing, fashion, music and a business forum aimed at strengthening ties between India and Canada - something event organizers hope to do around the world, too.

Debuting in 2000 in London, the IIFA's have been held on four continents in cities including Dubai, Bangkok, Colombo, Singapore, Macau and Johannesburg.

Rajini shifts home for fans

The latest news is that Rajinikanth wishes to meet his fans. He will be meeting not just the district administrators of his fans’ club but also the fans who wish to see him in person and take photographs.

To facilitate his fans to meet him, Rajini has decided to shift over to a new house that has ample space to accommodate fans and well-wishers. Moreover, his Poes Garden residence may be unsuitable to invite guests because this might cause some security concerns to his neighbor J Jayalalitha, the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.

Rajini also plans to treat his fans with feast once he is totally fit.

Puri to direct Abhishek Bachchan

Tollywood's sensational director Puri Jagannadh is going places. His movie with Amitabh Bachchan 'Bbuddah-Hoga Tera Baap' is all set to release in the first week of July. This movie has created a lot of buzz in Bollywood thanks to Amitabh's stylish look. Puri Jagannadh has re-created the angry young man look of Amitabh on the screen.

Puri's work has impressed Amitabh's son Abhishek Bachchan so much that he has requested him to direct a movie for him. Puri has agreed to direct a movie with Abhishek as the hero.

Abhishek Bachchan will produce the movie on his AB Corporation banner. This movie will start shooting only in the first half of next year.

"I am impressed with the work of Puri Jagannadh. I liked Pokiri so much. I am going to work with him soon. He narrated a story to me and we are going to make a movie soon." Abhishek Bachchan said.

Puri Jagannadh is now back in Hyderabad and is gearing up to start shooting for 'The Business Man' with Mahesh Babu as the hero.

Isha Sharvani talks about Zaheer Khan

Almost all media reports which claimed a few days ago that Isha Sarvani will be one of the leading ladies of Kamal Haasan's 'Viswaroopam', had a mention about the actress's much talked about 'relationship' with cricketer Zaheer Khan.

Now, Isha, who is one of the best classical dancers in Bollywood, has come out with an explanation on this. "I am not in a relationship with Zaheer Khan. I don't know from where such gossips are popping up?"

"Though I am not bothered by such reports, my family members are taking them serious. I find it very difficult to convince them. I guess this is the price celebrities should pay for being popular," the actress adds.

Saying that she would love to do challenging roles, Isha was however non-commital about being roped in by Kamal for 'Viswaroopam'. However, sources say that Isha, who is known as a rubber doll because of her agile moves, apparently suits the spy thriller because she can do a Halle Berry-Catwoman act to perfection.

Trisha in demand

Trisha is broadening her horizons considerably these days. Having reached the top in the Tamil and Telugu film industries and made her Bollywood debut opposite Akshay Kumar, she is all set to do a Kannada film with Dharshan. But that is not all, the Bhojpuri film industry is wooing her big time, hoping to get her to sign on the dotted line for a few of their films.

South Indian heroines are no strangers to this industry as stars like Nagma and Rambha have rocked in a few Bhojpuri films. Trisha was flattered we hear, but not too keen to commit, as she is very busy with other projects. She wants to strengthen her position in the South, and then conquer Bollywood as well.

Akshay Kumar's Ko

Akshay Kumar is very excited about his remake of Ko and is putting together a team as quickly as possible. RS Infotainment and Fox will be producing this venture jointly. Daredevil that Akshay is, he loved the stunts in Ko and wants to do the same on a larger scale in his version.

Anthony D'Souza aka Tony will be wielding the directorial baton. He had formerly worked with Akshay in the debacle Blue. Word is that AR Rahman will be doing the score. Karthika might be the heroine but that bit of news is awaiting confirmation. There is no word on who will do Piaa's part.

Superstar discharged

We all knew that Superstar was admitted in a leading hospital in Singapore, today the star has been discharged as he has met a complete recovery for his illness.

His son-in-law was the first to greet Superstar's fans all over the globe with this news. He tweeted, "Superstar discharged from hospital. He has recovered completely and taking rest. Soon national award celebrations god bless."

Our birdies add that Rajinikanth will stay there for a few more days. Remember, Dhanush had earlier told us that Superstar is on a shopping spree and the family is looking forward to a vacation?

Maybe, its time for that and they are finally getting to celebrate Dhanush's success of bagging a National Award, now that Superstar is all fine. We'd say the vacation is much-needed after all that's happened over the last few days.

After taking good care and much rest, Rajinikanth will start off with KS Ravikumar's 'Rana' alongside Deepika Padukone.

Fans can now be all glee as their prayers have been granted.

VTV comes to Chennai, again

e had earlier told you that breezy-romantic entertainer, 'Vinnaithandi Varuvaya' is going up North, and will be directed by Gautham Menon again.

The movie is titled 'Prem Katha' and stars Amy Jackson of 'Madraspattinam' fame with Prateik Babbar.

Now the latest is that, the team of 'Prem Katha' has come to Chennai to shoot few important scenes.

Those who know Gautham Menon well know his love for Amethyst, both the old and the new outlets. The director can be spotted at this café-cum-boutique, sometimes penning his scripts. It seems, few scenes of 'Prem Katha' were shot here, few at the beach and even the scene where the protagonist is jailed, for 'gate-crashing' his love's wedding, seems to have been shot in Chennai.

Some birdies even go on to say that a few songs of 'Prem Katha' will be shot here as well but we can't be sure of that.

'Mankatha' attracts Bollywood crowd

Well it looks like 'Mankatha' has hit the bull’s eye in making news. The film is one of the most-wanted projects back in the homeland – Tamil Nadu.

The shooting of the film is entirely through and the post-production team is busy to carry the film forward to the theatres in one perfect foil.

It looks like some Bollywood producers are eyeing 'Mankatha,' to remake it in to Hindi. While the director of this project, Venkat Prabhu, has not confirmed anything regarding the same openly, there are some reliable sources in the industry who have confirmed this. Venkat Prabhu seems to be taking his time in nodding his yes to the Hindi-speaking crowd.

Venkat wants to first launch his film for the Tamil audience. The film is touted to hit theatres during August, but a tentative date has not been finalized yet. The film might hit theatres sometime during the Independence Day, suggest experts.

While there are talks going on as to the Hindi remake of 'Mankatha,' some of sections of K'Town were plagued with rumours that 'Mankatha' is a remake of Bollywood film 'Jannat' which released more than a couple of years back starring Emraan Hashmi in the lead role. The remake news seems to have perturbed Dayanidhi Alagiri, who has firmly denied any similarity between the scripts of ‘Jannat’ and 'Mankatha.'

The music of 'Mankatha' is touted to hit the stands in July.
