--->This year I am as effective as SRK!Fast forward yourself a few months from now to the spree of Bollywood Awards 2007.By now I am habituated to the way awards are handed out to Bollywood films and film personalities year after year (no I ain't talking about buying ‘em). Whether it is Filmfare Awards, Screen Award, Zee Cine Awards, Sansui Awards, Stardust award, Moonlitnite award (okay the last one does not exist) we know the winners are more or less the same. Except that some award functions are a little more biased (remember Zee Cine Awards giving the best movie to Gadar once when Lagaan hogged the limelight, simply because Gadar was produced by Zee entertainment), while there are other award shows that give a best movie award to a different movie just to ‘appear’ different.The best of the lot however is the Filmfare Award which seeks to satisfy everybody (even Aamir Khan) by giving awards to one and all of the bright fraternity. Filmfare excels in giving special awards if th
Shankar Ehsaan Loy: Shankar Ehsaan Loy have been the most consistent music directors in India. You can always rely on SEL for consistency. Though A.R.Rahman is extremely gifted as a music composer, at times he can disappoint too as he did in Mr.Romeo, Kisna-The Warrior Poet, and Paheli. But not Shankar Ehsaan Loy, they have always come up with hummable compositions. Their strength lies in melody. Look at the title song of Kal Ho Na Ho, or “maa” from Taare Zameen Par or “meri duniya” from Heyy Babyy. Shankar Ehsaan Loy is also very effective in danceable songs and fast beat numbers. Some of the best fast danceable Shankar Ehsaan Loy numbers are “It is the time to Disco”, “Heyy Babyy(title song)”, “Koi Kahe”(Dil Chahta Hai), Jhoom Barabar Jhoom (title song) and Aaj Ki Raat (Don-The Chase Begins). Kajra Re remains the best work of Shankar Ehsaan Loy till date and Aaj Ki Raat(Don-The Chase Begins) was the best song 2006. Best fast numbers of Shankar Ehsaan Loy:
-----> I am the GURU of music because my tunes are always DIL SE !!A.R.Rahman is the musical genius of India, no two ways about it. He is among the top 25 all time top selling recording artistes of the world. A.R.Rahman began his career in 1991 composing ad jingles in a small studio near his home, called Panchathan Record Inn. In the year 1992, he showed some of his samples to Mani Ratnam, who was impressed gave the boy his first break. A.R. Rahman won the National Award for the best music for his first ever film Roja, a feat that was never achieved by any music composer before. AR Rahman has won national music awards four times, a record in itself-Minsaara Kanavu (Electric Dreams, Tamil) in 1997, Lagaan (Tax, Hindi) in 2002 and Kannathil Muthamittal (A Kiss on the Cheek, Tamil) in 2003) apart from Roja. A.R.Rahman debuted in Bollywood with the zingy music for Rangeela(1993) that redefined sound and music for Bollywood. His debut in Bollywood achieved him Filmfare Award for music
Happy birthday to SRK-Bollywood’s baadshah and super achiever! His fans, including me admire him for his wit, his confidence and his ability to take risks. SRK took risks at every turn of his career be it in the choice of movies or hosting a KBC. He took a risk playing a negative role in Baazigar which most actors would not touch with a bargepole. SRK then risked distributing Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, because the movie lacked a ‘saleable’ factor, as SRK wasn’t really a star then. SRK risked doing a classic like Devdas and again risked playing with a timeless hit –Don-The chase begins. All these movies proved to be stepping stones in SRK’s claim to fame.Once Anil Kapoor had remarked to SRK,”Tum actor ho…Kaha ads-wads ke chakkar pe pad rahein ho?” This was during the time when actors lived in seclusion and would think below their dignity to appear in television commercials. Nevertheless SRK forego the risk of overexposure, because he believed in the power of brand equity,

Every second Bollywood heroine is dusky or wheatish. There is something about the dusky/wheatish complexion which makes these lovely Bollywood divas mysterious and hot. There was an era when dark colored complexion was relegated to arty, parallel cinema which the likes of Smita Patil graced. Now dusky is definitely in with a bevy of earthy-complexioned or dusky looking actresses like Bipasha Basu, Kajol, Priyanka Chopra, Sameera Reddy, Lara Dutta, Mallaika Arora, Sonali Kulkarni, Raima Sen, Konkona Sen, Tanushree Dutta, Koena Mitra, Nandita Das, Jiah Khan, Geeta Basra and Deepika Padukone. All of these actresses look divinely sexy and beautiful at the same time with their clay complexion inducing the fertile imagination of every man. To be fair(I don’t mean the complexion) every color has its own individuality, sensuality and speaciality. But there is something tangy, saucy and mysterious about a dusky complexion. It makes a woman look real, achievable and sensuous without looking

If you have a good figure, only then will you be able to do these scenes. As an actor I performed what was demanded.

Shssssssssss......starwin, you are getting too personal....I mean too professional now!Bollywood stars original choices Let us look at how rejects of some actors made stars of others! Pradeep Sarkar was miffed over Vidya Balan having rejected Konkona Sens’ role in Laga Chunari Mein Daag. The smart girl stuck to her role in Heyy Babby and rejected LCHD. The verdict was out: Vidya Balan had a cent percent success rate in Bollywood for 2007 with hits like Heyy Babyy and Bhool Bhulaiya . Good for her that she did not do LCMD! Now let us look at some of the career blunders, mistakes that actors and actresses of Bollywood have made. Let us look at the original choices of the hit Bollywood movies which were to star with actors who eventually walked away! Though they may say that bygones and bygones, they cannot refute the fact that these movies would have definitely made them bigger stars if not legends: Shahrukh Khan: Rejected Lagaan and Munnabhai MBSS. Wonder how bigger he’d have r
The Europeans are at it again. This year's mostly-German-language Bollywood meetup is scheduled for Munich, March 7-9. Shall we put the N(orth) A(merican) in InternatioNAl? We can carpool. Chale chalo! All are invited, and if you can make it to Munich, there is a promise of help finding a cheap place to stay (someone's couch, a shared hotel room, etc.) - and a superwow time, of course.The weekend is being planned by Michael, Kaddele, Marco, Maini, Maria, and Babasko. They've already done a ton of work - and I already have very high expectations!The preliminary schedule is as follows.Friday, March 7th: meet in the afternoon to hang out, blog, chat, do silly stuff, eat, drink. One idea is to catch a Bollywood flick in a Munich cinema in the evening (which might be a problem, since Babasko et al. still have to convince one of the local distributors to play an Indian film, but I have faith they'll come up with something).Saturday, March 8: the "Big Day": Typical Bavarian "Weisswurst" bre
The world has heard much about India’s rise to economic power and its development of nuclear energy, but do these things alone make a nation a world power? India is headed to become the world’s most populous nation, it has the world’s fourth largest armed forces and it already has the world’s fifth largest economy. [...]
Halla Bol: The first release of 2008, releasing 11th Jan’2008 Halla Bol starring Ajay Devgan and Vidya Balan. The movie is directed by Raj Kumar Santoshi.It is inspired by Aamir Khan’s involvement in the Narmada Bachao Andolan. The movie shows Ajay Devgan rising to become a movie star, a perfectionist to the core. He then comes across a scenario where his social consciousness come to the fore and raises a voice against the injustice does. His views are maligned by political forces and a section of the media and he becomes a victim of acute criticism and scorn. Are you getting the similarity? Well to make it even more transparent, Ajay Devgan’s name is Sameer Khan (eeks!) Jodhaa Akbar: Jodhaa Akbar is a tale of allegiance marriage turned into true love. It is a slice of 16th century history involving the Moghul Emperor Akbar and his Hindu Rajput princess Aishwarya Rai(sorry…Jodhaa). The story is such that Akbar after annexing a lot of Hindu kingdom in his empire either ta
It's that time of the year when everyone says Goodbye! to the year gone by and get all geared up to say Welcome! to the New Year.In between the departure of the old year and the advent of New Year lies something like the midnight for which everyone waits with bated breath, to welcome the New Year with open arms.For the urban crowd, the New Year celebrations include shelling out money in some of the 5 star mega structured hotels to see some of the Bollywood heroines, performing live.But the flip side of the coin is that this money gets translated into a pot-full of moolah, for these heroines, and these pot-full goes to the tunes of anywhere between a few lakhs till crores, depending upon the saleability quotient of the star. Bollywood Buzz brings to you an insight of the star-charges and the places where you can go star-hunting (with the damages, of course!) Topping this year's pricey-list is none other than Bipasha Basu who will be performing at the JW Marriott, Juhu.She is reported
"Awards Abhi Baaki Hain, Mere Dost!"This is perhaps my last post of 2007, even though I may spare time to write the review for Welcome. Last heard, even Welcome is doing a good business.2007 has been a good year for Bollywood with innovative themed films like Bheja Fry, Chak de, Life in a Metro and Taare Zameen Par. We saw smart movie-making ,packaging and marketing win as Om Shanti Om swept away the competition. It was the year of the three Khans and a Kumar. Salman Khan gave one of the biggest hits of his career in the form of Partner while SRK gave two of the biggest hit in Bollywood-Om Shanti Om and Chak de. He thrilled his fans in OSO and silenced his critics in Chak De. Aamir Khan showed that he is an encylopadiea when it comes to movie making and performing with Taaren Zameen Par.This movie will go down as a must watch for all parents.But the year belonged to Rajeev Bhatia...Raajeev Bhatia who????? Akshay Kumar, that's his screen name. Akshay Kumar has emerged as the box office
Happy Holidays are here again. And we ought to doff our Santa hats to Charles Dickens.For it was he, who through his story, A Christmas Carol, revived the festival. A happy and joyous occasion for gifts, pudding and the ho-ho-ing cuddly Santa.A time for love and friendship, celebrating their dostis among other things on this merry day are friends Kareena Kapoor and Amrita Arora, who reminisce about Christmas trees, stockings full of goodies, midnight masses, sumptuous meals and Santa."I've been celebrating X'mas ever since I was in my mom's arms. Not many know that my mother is half Christian and that Christmas is celebrated in our home in a big way. We attend midnight mass, decorate a Christmas tree and do everything that a traditional Christian family would," says Kareena.So X'mas is another common factor between them, besides being younger siblings to two very hot-and-sexy sisters. And though they admire Karishma and Malaika, Bebo and Amu claim to have had their share of fight
2007 award for films may be anybody’s taking..it may be too early to judge, but the theme of the year definitely is sports. 2007 Bollywood has seen a lot many surprises with big budget movies flopping and underdogs like cheeni-kum and Bheja Fry doing wonderfully well. There is already a familiar but adorable trend witnessed in the Bollywood 2007-sports. The theme of the year in Bollywood 2007 seems to be sports. If Saif played to win, hum a song, lose, hum a song, win yet again and hum a song once again in Ta Ra Rum Pum, Shahrukh Khan coached his all girl hockey team to an astounding victory in Chak de. Coach Coach hota hain! The uncanny thing was all the films made on cricket this year failed. Sports was never a winning formula in Bollywood previously although in the last five years, all that has changed with movies like Bend it like Beckham, Iqbaal and of course Lagaan doing amazing well. Everyone likes to rejoice in the triumph of human spirit. Inspite of a han
Sex in Bollywood films is a part and parcel of entertainment. The most successful adult Hindi film so far ‘Murder’ released in 2004 bears testimony to this. Although adapted by the Hollywood flick ‘Unfaithful’ Murder become a nationwide hit thanks to the sleaze and the love-making scenes of Mallika Shararat (sorry Sherawat). Neha Dhupia did an encore in the cheaply made but sleazy Julie which was a surprise hit. The movie was for the mass, to bait (please don’t treat these three words as single) and the junta loved it. Neha Dhupia was so much convinced about films getting sexed-up that her quote “only sex and Shahrukh sell” become more famous than her. However, these bold girls had to take back their words when Neha Dhupia’s bolder movie Sheesha flopped and Mallika’s cleavage revealing ‘Back ke rehna re baba’ had audience screaming just that. Now Mallika has been relegated to the slutty character that lusts after the hero and gets nothing in the end…she d
Bollywood romance Romance in Bollywood movies have taken a back seat.Have people forgotten what is to be in love? Well, it seems like if Bollywood definitely has. The mellifluous ethereal feeling of love has been replaced by comedy, thriller and topics on infidelity. The age old recipe of success-Boy meets Girl is no more in the scene. The last Bollywood love story was Hum Tum released three years ago in 2004. Between the years 2002 to 2004, there have been successful and experimental love stories in the form of Saathiya, Chalte Chalte, Hum Tum and Veerz Zara. After 2004, Bollywood has not shown much of an interest in romance In fact, there is no suitable replacement to Shahrukh Khan or Salman Khan who played the lover boy roles reasonably well in their times. Shahrukh donned the role of Don and is now presently riding high after leading his all girl hockey team to box-office success in Chak De. Salman Khan on the other hand is choosing ‘humor’ as his cup of tea; his movie Pa
Unlike Bollywood stars, who find it relatively easy to resurge back to fame after five flops in a row, things are no cozy for directors. Ram Gopal Verma, the maverick director whose film Satya (the only film to get a 5 Star rating in Times of India) epitomized as a work of class and genius has disappointed Bollywood with ‘Ram Gopal Verma ki Aag.’ The movie which was supposed to be a tribute to the classic superhit Sholay ended up as an insulting parody, and that too with dollops of boredom. The Mumbai Mirror has reportedly stated that it takes three flops in a row for Bollywood directors to bite dust. If you can make turn around and make a good commercially successful movie after the first couple of disappointments, you may still be in the reckoning. If you still don’t mend your ways, you are as good as forgotten unless you enjoy some goodwill in the industry. As we all know, Bollywood has a short attention span. Where is Joy Augustine, the maker of Tere Mere Sapn

It seems Bollywood is taking the Chinese route to success. Have a keen look at some Bollywood's recent flicks, and you'll find most of them more or less copies of either foreign or regional films. Let me highlight the top three Bollywood movies that ruled the box office for weeks.....Dhoom 2 I'm not saying that the whole movie is a spoof. But there were rumours that stunt artists were called in from Hollywood. Have a look at the last part of the film when Abhishek Bachhan and Uday Chopra chase Hrithik Roshan on a bike. If you have seen Mission Impossible 2, you'll know better what's going on. The moves have been literally copied. The only difference is, in this movie, two heroes chase a vilian, while in Mission Impossible 2, only Ethan Hunt(Tom Cruise) was by chased Sean Ambrose(Dougray Scott) and Ethan was the hero. A big blow for Hindi action fans!PartnerI can say this film has reached the pinacle of copying! It's just the hind version of Hitch, the Will Smith starrer. In this movie

In the mid 1990’s if you heard anyone talk about a forthcoming movie release in Bollywood they would sound too much like a popular Indian Ketchup commercial. The buzzword was “it's different”. Of course the movies ended up being the same old formula films that sometimes clicked and most times faded away into oblivion.But now ten years later you don’t hear that buzzword much, instead you get to

She breezed like a whiff of fresh air in Bollywood, flashing those glorious dimples, after conquering the Ms India pageant in 1999. Since then, this intelligent lady has made her presence felt everywhere-from anchoring, to acting in TV serial and films like Dhoop, Jurm and of course Dor, in which she won critical accolades in the role of Zeenat. Now she’s ready to don a ‘volatile facade’ for her forthcoming film, Manorama Six Feet Under. NT catches up with the pretty woman.
These days Gul is quite excited about her forthcoming film. Ask her what makes it all that special and the gal enthuses, “Manorama Six Feet Under is a whodunit kind of film-a murder mystery, which is set in the backdrop of a small town. It’s an intensely woven film, which is highly believable. I play the role of Nimmia woman with mercurial twists of temper, who’s married to Abhay Deol, a PWD engineer.”
While the plot sounds intriguing enough, does she really think there is
Hot gossips is going on that we will see soon Gouri khan soon acting in "Om shanti Om" .For the first time ever , Gauri will play a little walk-in role in this film produced by her self.
