But the actor’s hands are tied down and isnot signing any new projects till the complete wrap of Khamoshiyan shoot. 

Despite this the actor is tied down with the look of his character in Khamoshiyan. Most of the interesting roles that are coming the star’s way need him to alter his look. Ali’s Character in the film is porting long hair. The second schedule is due in October and will last a month. So in order to maintain the look of the film the star is not taking on new projects.

Ali said, “This role is supremely important to me and that means me playing to as mush perfection as possible is equally important. One of the things that are of utmost importance is the progression of my character. A part of that is me sporting long hair. This is an absolute requirement and thus I can’t take up any projects because the interesting ones that are coming my way need me to chop of my locks”

'Raanjhanaa' stars promote film in Crowne Plaza

 Raanjhanaa, the upcoming romance film, starring Sonam Kapoor and Tamil film actor Dhanush in his Bollywood debut, directed by Anand L. Rai. The director and stars were seen recently at Crowne Plaza, Delhi promoting their film.

Sonam plays the character of Zoya Haider, “the role I play is something with which many girls will identify with. She is a middle class girl in her values, is very headstrong and emotional. On that level, I do connect with her. I may not be perfect and have many layers to my personality. When Zoya falls in love she believes in it and feels strongly about it. Love is complicated as I believe in it too, like her, but very few people like her have the courage to take a stand.”

Addressing the questions related to his Bollywood debut Dhanush said, “I am doing my 26th film; definitely the audience loves me, and with the Bollywood obsession of muscular men, I like myself this way.”

“There are two ways to impress a girl, one is the Shahrukh Khan way but there is a chance of pissing the women off with heroic acts, when that does not work, the ‘tapori’ way works,  pursue the girl till she says yes”, when asked about his romantic streak in the film.

Krishika Lulla, producer said, “This is a different type of romance, the intensity and the chemistry shown in the film is unique”

 Written by Himanshu Sharma. The music of the film is composed by double Academy Award Winner, A. R. Rahman. The film is produced by Krishika Lulla under the banner Eros International.

The film is scheduled to release on June 21, 2013.

Siddharth humors David Dhawan!!

We’ve been hearing a lot about all the fun and kaminapanthat’s been happening on the sets of the much anticipated tummy tickler Chashme Baddoor!

This time it was southern star Siddharth who humored the master of comedies, David Dhawan! So what made the funny man laugh himself? Well it was Siddharth’s amusing antics that left the director in splits!

One day in between shots Siddharth mysteriously disappeared in one of his breaks only to return on the sets in a totally different get up! The light hearted boy that he is, Siddharth came back dressed as a Sardaar with his pagdi and daadi bang on! And no, this was not a part of his character in the film. The jovial actor happened to spot a turban and fake beard, which probably was the get up for some other artist in the studio, Siddharth was curious to know how he would look if he sported the look and that’s what led him to try it on!

The next thing you know, the actor was back on the sets, in character albeit not for Chashme Baddoor!The entire unit cracked up on his arrival and we hear Davidji was mighty amused! The director even went on to do the bhangra with his entertaining actor!

No wonder at a recent event David Dhawan was heard saying that Siddharth is the naughtiest and most kamina of them all!

Directed by David Dhawan & Produced by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures, Chashme Baddoor stars Ali Zafar, Siddharth, Divyendu Sharma and Southern siren Tapasee who is all set to make her Bollywood debut this year.

The film hits theaters on 5^th April, 2013!

Makrand Deshpande explores the improbable idea of sleep workers with his upcoming film “Sona Spa”

Theatre is his first love, says Makrand Deshpande as his new film ‘Sona Spa’ explores the improbable idea of sleep workers.
Theatre is his mainstay and occasionally we get to see him in films, flaunting his overgrown, salt and pepper beard.

Makrand Deshpande returns as a director with Sona Spa, scheduled to release this month 22nd March, three years after his last film Shah Rukh Bola Khoobsurat Hai Tu. An adaptation of his play of the same name, the film explores the idea of hiring someone to sleep for you while you go about your work.
Here’s a catch. If someone sleeps for you, he/she will also have access to your dreams. The improbability of this idea and the limitation of narrating it on stage prompted Makrand to think of making this into a film. The film stars Naseeruddin Shah and theatre actors Aahana Kumrah and Shruti Vyas among others.
