Sanjay Dutt and Vivek Oberoi come face to face

Sanjay and Vivek Oberoi will have a face off in their next, Zilla Ghaziabad. Just like their last film together, Shootout At Lokhandwala even this one has been based on a real story wherein Vivek plays a gangster and Sanjay a cop.

A unit member says, “Both Sanju and Vivek are playing powerful larger than life characters and have quite a few confrontation scenes.” Since there is chin-to-chin fighting, we wonder it will remind them of their earlier personal equation. 

Zarine Khan actually took one of her fans for a bike ride, recently. The young guy, who is a huge fan of the Veer actress, expressed a desire to get a ride on her bicycle and to his pleasant surprise Zarine agreed to do so. The fan’s grin was way longer than the ride he was taken on.

Clash of Titans!

Two Bollywood stalwarts like Big B and Aamir Khan rarely clash at the box office. Amitabh Bachchan’s Bbuddah Hoga Tera Baap and Aamir Khan’s Delhi Belly are all set to release this Friday. Both are drastically different films, but interestingly have similar marketing and publicity techniques.

Both have cashed on the burning topic ‘the age limit for drinking in Maharshtra’. While Big B tweeted about it incessantly, Imran Khan announced his plans of filing a Public Interest Litigation. Both have relied on the strategy of abuse or not to abuse. While DB has ‘in-your-face’ songs with abundant use of double meaning words and expletives, AB’s Bbuddah has beeped the abuses. Also, both Aamir and Big B have turned item boys for their respective films. With so much efforts being put in by both parties, it would be fun to see who wins this BO race on July 1.

I’m performing with Jermaine in Toronto – Sonu Niigaam

 

Versatile Indian singer Sonu Niigaam says he will perform with Michael Jackson’s brother Jermaine during the forthcoming International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Weekend in Toronto, as a tribute to the late King of Pop on the eve of his second death anniversary.

The duo will perform Sonu’s composition, which has been chosen as a tribute song for Michael, who died June 25, 2009, by his family.

“Yes, I am performing with him (Jermaine), the MJ tribute song that is getting released by Universal America next week. It is called ‘This Is It’. I wrote and composed the song and he sang it for me in Los Angeles. It is the first ever tribute song in the world post MJ’s sad demise that is endorsed by a member of Michael Jackson’s family,” Sonu told IANS.

Their performance will be a part of the IIFA Rocks, a music and fashion event which will sponsored by Grey Goose on the second day of the three-day Bollywood extravaganza in Toronto, starting June 23.

“We were fortunate to have met with Michael Jackson in 1996 when we brought him to India for his concert. With IIFA in Toronto, we will be commemorating Michael Jackson’s second death anniversary with a performance by his brother Jermaine Jackson on the IIFA Rocks stage. He will be joined by Sonu Niigaam,” Sabbas Joseph, one of the founder directors of Wizcraft International Entertainment, told IANS.

Sonu is a huge Michael Jackson fan, and he has admitted in the past that his style of singing the hit number “Ye dil deewana” was majorly influenced by the international pop superstar.

Jermaine, MJ’s elder brother, had last visited India in October 2009 for 10 days to record an album with composer-singer Adnan Sami.

Bollywood returns to Darjeeling

Within days of the West Bengal government reaching an agreement with Gorkha Janamukti Morcha (GJM), Bollywood returned to the picturesque Darjeeling hills Wednesday for a film shoot after an eight-year gap.

The shooting of Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra starrer “Barfee’ was held at Ghum station of Darjeeling. The film is being directed by Anurag Basu.

The film is a romantic murder mystery and will be shot at various locations in Darjeeling in two segments.

The first segment will be till the end of June, while shooting for the second segment will start from the last week of August and continue till mid-September.

The few shots featuring Ranbir were taken Wednesday. Priyanka is scheduled to join the shooting June 25.

The last film to be shot in Darjeeling was Shah Rukh Khan’s “Main Hoon Naa” in 2003.

Many nationally and internationally acclaimed films have been shot in Darjeeling, including Satyajit Ray’s “Kanchenjunga”, Saif Ali Khan’s “Parineeta” and Anjan Dutta’s “Chalo Lets Go”.

But shooting for both Hindi and Bengali movies stopped after Bimal Gurung-led GJM organised a violent movement for the creation of a separate state of Gorkhaland.

Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced June 7 that the issue of a separate Gorkhaland has been resolved and an agreement signed. However, the GJM said it has not gone back on its demand and called the agreement the “foundation of a separate state”.

Most Searched Bollywood Stars 2011 - Salman Khan Sonakshi Sinha

Sallu Bhai beats Bollywood Khiladi Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgan in the survey carried across the metros as well as tier-II and tier-III cities. Ranbir Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor wrapped up the top five.

And If I am talking about Sonakshi Sinha then she came ahead of the likes of Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif to be the most searched celebrity on the internet among the female brigade.

Piggy Chops came second and Sonam Kapoor followed at the third slot. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Katz landed at the fourth and fifth spots in the survey.

(2) Salman Khan saw the final two matches of World Cup 2011 only to study the temperament of the bodyguards patrolling close to the VIPs on the D-days.

He has been greatly inspired by his close friend and B-town Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan to do a thorough research on the character to be portrayed, and as such the ‘Bodyguard’ hero remained glued to his seat to observe the functioning of the bodyguards at the stadium, during the game.

(3) Salman Khan Kangana Ranaut Together Again:- She was out with her friends around midnight and made an impromptu detour to meet him when she heard that he was shooting at Filmistan Studios and was on the sets for around four hours and was later spotted leaving in his car.

She was to act in Salman Khan Home Production directed by Mahesh Manjrekar but script changes got the film shelved.
