    ‘No audience, No show’ status this week

    MUMBAI: With five releases last Friday, most without face value, it was ‘no audience, no show’ status at many cinema houses. Wake Up India, Delhi Gang, Ishk Actually and Sooper Se Ooper were the ones to suffer.

    Micky Virus is the one that survived the opening weekend with figures of Rs 4.25 crore. The going will be tough as the new week starts. This film also marked the debut of Manish Paul on the big screen.

    Boss collects Rs 47.2 crore in its first week (Nine days). The Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha starrer film released on 16 October and
    Shahid has collected Rs 3.1 crore in its first week.

    War Chhod Na Yaar has added Rs 45 lakh in its second week to take its two week total to Rs 6.7 crore.

    Exhibition trade is facing its dullest period of the year as pre-Diwali is always a bad time for new releases. Theatres have very poor footfalls and are now resting their hopes on the Rakesh Roshan – Hrithik Roshan brand, Krrish 3. Exhibitors have paid high MG for this film and anticipation is high.

  • Saif Ali Khan and Sonakshi Sinha’s impromptu dance for ‘Tamanche Pe Disco’

    Saif Ali Khan and Sonakshi Sinha’s impromptu dance for ‘Tamanche Pe Disco’

    MUMBAI: The much awaited song Tamanche Pe Disco with our very own nawab of Bollywood Saif Ali Khan and Sonakshi Sinha is finally here!

     This track is sung and composed by the UK based band RDB, making the rhythm very catchy and peppy.

    In fact we hear that when ace choreographer Ganesh Acharya, who has choreographed the song, made the actors listen to the song, both started grooving spontaneously to its fast and peppy tune.

    A source close to the team said, “The song has a very perky tune to it making a person stand up and dance. The same happened with Saif and Sonakshi, making them groove on the spot. Ganesh was very impressed with this unrehearsed and unplanned dancing so he decided to include that impromptu chemistry between Saif and Sonakshi in the song.”

    We feel that the definite USP of the song is its rusty look along with the impromptu and spontaneous dancing done by the leading stars of the movie.

    Looks like the Bullett Raja is not only good with his shooting skills but also with his dancing skills!

    Releasing 29 November, Bullett Raja is premised on fictional mafia based in Uttar Pradesh starring Saif Ali Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, Jimmy Shergill, Vidyut Jamwal, Gulshan Grover, Raj Babbar and Chunky Pandey.

    Fox Star Studios presents Bullett Raja produced by Tigmanshu Dhulia, Nitin Tej Ahuja, Rahul Mitra and is a Moving Pictures & BrandSmith Motion Pictures Production.

  • Akshay Kumar pays tribute to Feroz Khan in ‘Har Kisi Ko Nahi Milta’

    Akshay Kumar pays tribute to Feroz Khan in ‘Har Kisi Ko Nahi Milta’

    Akshay Kumar stands for versatility in Bollywood as he is known for encompassing roles from different genres readily and adeptly. From his action films to his comic roles, Akshay does everything just perfectly.

     

    The actor will be seen donning a cowboy avatar in the film BOSS, for the song Har Kisi Ko Nahi Milta.

     

    Akshay was keen on shooting this video in true Feroz Khan’s style, the Bollywood superstar has always been a big fan of Khan. He wanted the look of the song to be very stylish and quite larger than life, that’s where the ranch (farmhouse style with horses, mills) setting came in. This is Akshay’s way of paying respect to the great actor and director Feroz Khan.

     

    Along with Akshay the song features Sonakshi Sinha and has a backdrop in a ranch with beautiful white horses running around the duo.

     

    When quizzed Akshay about him donning the late Feroz Khan’s style he said, “I consider Feroz Khan to be the Boss of coolness and style. I hope I have been able to do justice to his personality.”

     

    Produced by Viacom 18, Cape of Good Films and Ashwin Varde Productions, BOSS is directed by Anthony D’souza and stars Akshay Kumar, Mithun Chakraborty, Shiv Pandit, Aditi Rao Hydari, Johny Lever and Danny Denzongpa.
    The BOSS will hit the screens on 16 October.

  • Sonakshi Sinha to play a Bengali Woman in Bullett Raja

    Sonakshi Sinha to play a Bengali Woman in Bullett Raja

    This Bollywood beauty, Sonakshi Sinha has always charmed the audiences with her simplicity and will continue doing so with Bullett Raja, to woo her fans. This time, she will be seen in never seen before avatar. Sonakshi will be seen as a bong beauty.

     

    For her role in the film, Sonakshi has left no stone unturned and is going all out. She will be seen performing a Bengali folk dance called ‘Jhumur dance’. This is typical Bengali dance and is practiced all over West Bengal.

     

    Sonakshi will be seen as a true Bengali woman as she is wearing the quintessential red bordered saree, along with big red bindi on her forehead, gajrah in her hair and alta on her hands. When asked about the look Sonakshi said, “This is for the second time; I am playing a Bengali girl. I have played a Bengali in Lootera, but that was drastically different, I was a 1950 Bengali Girl, who is a Zamindar’s daughter. In Bullett Raja, I am playing a contemporary Bengali girl. I loved my look for the Bengali avatar. It gave me a very traditional feel. I wish the sequence we shot in that costume was a little longer, because I did not want to get out of it.”

     

    And about the traditional dance, she added, “I absolutely loved donning this look; there is a certain grace to it. Once I was in it everyone was shocked at how bengali I looked. The jhumur is a beautiful feminine traditional dance, and Brinda mam being so good at what she does taught me really well!”

     

    Releasing on 29 November, Bullett Raja is premised on fictional mafia based in Uttar Pradesh starring Saif Ali Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, Jimmy Shergill, Vidyut Jamwal, Gulshan Grover, Raj Babbar and Chunky Pandey.
