Kat in Dostana 2!

Dostana, the romantic comedy filmed entirely in Miami is here with a new avatar. Birdies say that the sequel brings in Katrina to join the crazy company of John Abraham and Abhishek. But it is not over yet, we will have Arjun Rampal and Riteish Deshmukh to wood the lady along with John and Abi. Guys will of course add that zing to the sequel!
Looks like Dharma Productions has auditioned dozens of new girls as they wanted a fresh face for the sequel. “After a tedious Google search, they felt that Katrina’s ‘most hit’ status on the Internet makes it apt for her to play the role of the ‘most hit’ girl by the boys in ‘Dostana 2’” adds our source.
Though there are lots of rumors doing rounds in the industry in terms with Ash’s Barbie doll issue, Kat is okay about acting with Abishek. Cool girl for a cool film! What say people?-->

Kat now as the ‘Rajneeti’ gal

Katrina Kaif tasted immense fame after her movie ‘New York’ touched the success skies. Now since her career status has got the boost, the foreign chori is careful in picking the movies offers.
Next, Katrina will be seen in the prestigious character of Sonia Gandhi in Prakash Jha’s ‘Rajneeti’. It would be interesting to see this arm-candy in a serious role for once. The movie is said to deal with the political scenario. She said to sources, “I’m the only girl with top male actors like Naseeruddin Shah, Ranbir Kapoor, Ajay Devgan, Manoj Bajpai, Nana Patekar and Arjun Rampal. It is a performance oriented film for me and that’s the way I would ideally like most of my future films to be.”
Well, now one would think that she will bid away to her usual sweet looking roles. But Katrina also has Priyadarshan’s ‘De Dana Dan’. It is said that she signed on the dotted line of this one only for her friend Akshay Kumar. Kat and Akki have given several good films together before and so she agreed to do the movie which is under the actor’s home production. She said, “Akshay is a friend and I could never refuse. When I learnt De Dana Dan is Akshay’s home production I said yes without hesitation.” A birdie said that the movie comprises of 22 actors and the director had termed it as his most complex movie till now!
Well, coming back to our Barbie gal, hope Katrina plays her cards well hereon. And may she give another ‘New York’!

My name is unimportant – SRK

Bollywood’s big banners – Dharma Productions and Red Chillies – announced their collaboration with Fox Star Movies in an official press conference yesterday. The international production company has brought the worldwide rights of Karan Johar’s movie ‘My Name is Khan’.
The director said this was an exceptional moment for both the banners to associate with the prestigious Fox. On the movie, he said that ‘My Name is Khan’ is something beyond the making of the movie. “It is much more than creating a film; it was more like a passion project.”
The King Khan presented the movie in his own style. He felt the movie was much advanced thought-wise, when he came across its story that was written by Karan three years ago. Shah Rukh stated that his name is no way related to the movie. Instead, the name of the film is relevant to story that Shibani Bathija has written. He said, “My name is unimportant. My work is much more important than my name.” Popular to belief, the movie is said to be on terrorism. When asked on this, the actor said, “The film is not about terrorism, it is about relationships. Relationship between two people, the society, city, country and finally between the entire world.” He also denied that the movie is fully based on Islam. It shows a huge Islamic in western angle and the makers of the movie have taken care not to hurt the sentiments of people. Kajol is said to be the cornerstone of the movie.
It will be great to see the popular star couple Shah Rukh and Kajol on screen after a long gap. The movie thus carries lots of expectations. But Karan Johar revealed that the movie won’t have any romantic songs, as in his previous love stories like ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’, and ‘Kabhi Kushi Kabhi Gham’. The movie will be a love story but in a different manner.
In ‘My Name is Khan’, Shah Rukh Khan plays the character of Rizvan Khan who is suffering from Asperger’s Syndrome and Kajol plays his wife as Mandira.
Can’t wait for this one, right?

‘My Name is Khan’ ties with Fox

The prestigious international banner Fox is said to have tied up with Karan Johar’s much-waited movie, ‘My Name is Khan’. Starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, the movie is going to be second venture by Fox after ‘Slumdog Millionaire’.
According to sources Karan Johar and SRK’s Red Chillies will soon officially finalise the deal with Fox. Usually Yash Raj Films was associated with Karan’s movies. But now, the Bollywood’s favourite filmmaker has signed-in UTV Motion Pictures for two of his forthcoming films, ‘Wake Up Sid’ and ‘Kurbaan’. And latest is this agreement with the International productions.
It is said that Fox will acquire the movie’s rights for a whopping amount of Rs. 98 crores. While few others state it to be more than that, say Rs. 100 to 120 crores. But the factual amount is still unknown. Karan Johar said, “At the press conference (today) we are not going to discuss the commercial terms of the My Name Is Khan deal. The financial terms of this deal is an internal matter between Red Chillies, Dharma Productions and Fox. In any case, the figure is nothing close to what is being reported everywhere (120 crores). What we will discuss at the press conference is strategy. This is the first time such a deal has been inked, where the film will release beyond the mainstream diaspora and that is exciting.”
Well, with big names like King Khan, Kajol and Karan Johar in the movie, looks like Fox will have sure-shot returns. Let’s wait and watch. For the movie is said to be slated for early next year.
