Anil Kapoor: From 'One Two ka Four' to '24'

Actor Anil Kapoor has made an assured and credible debut on US television with a two-hour season premier of the hugely popular drama series '24'. Playing president Omar Hassan of a fictional Middle Eastern country called Islamic Republic of Kamistan, Kapoor's was a largely swift performance, laboured somewhat in a place or two by the inherent unfamiliarity with geopolitical issues. On balance though, Kapoor slipped into the frenzied world of Jack Bauer, played with his trademark nervy manner by Kiefer Sutherland, like a consummate professional. Hassan is presented as a transformational Middle Eastern leader who is the only hope for stability in the volatile region. He is at the United Nations for talks with US President Allison Taylor (Cherry Jones) to forswear his country's nuclear programme in return for billions of dollars in aid. Inevitably, Hassan's peace moves have not gone down well with his detractors who have hatched a plot to assassinate him in

Not only will Abhishek Bachchan be hosting a new TV game show but would also be testing his mettle against his predecessors from bollywood. But, this new professional sojourn is already making the actor nervous. And the best part is that he never makes it a point to hide it. Accepting that he's looking forward to make his TV debut a popular fare like his father and other bollywood stars, Abhishek says, "I find this a great opportunity to prove myself as a TV host. Though the pressure is immense as my dad has been the star of this format and I am yet to prove myself with my first TV show. It's a bit nervous feeling at this stage but I'm sure the audiences would love my innings with the small screen." Abhishek's show which is called the NATIONAL BINGO NIGHT is produced b

Sanjay Gupta and Suparn: It's time to do something path breaking

AVATAR has made many a film makers smell the coffee. While Rakesh Roshan and co. have been heard of putting their plans for KRRISH sequel on hold and thinking of something substantial enough to match the scale and intensity of their Hollywood counterparts, some other film makers are taking it up as a challenge. Producer Sanjay Gupta has taken an early lead and announced his next film with director Suparn Verma (after ACID FACTORY). Belonging to horror genre, this yet untitled 'live' film would be made in 3D format. This is not all as the duo wants to use the same technology with which James Cameron created AVATAR and found worldwide recognition coming his way. Confirms Sanjay Gupta, "With 3D coming into picture, it's going to be challenge for Suparn as a film maker and exciting for the viewers. It is time to do something completely path breaking with newer technology coming in." In 2010 alone, there would be at least two horror flicks that would come out of Bol

DUNNO Y... NA JAANE KYUN India's answer to BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN?

Image
In a rather bold move, producer Anil Sharma 's bilingual film DUNNO Y... NA JAANE KYUN is all set to be India's answer to BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. To be directed by Sanjay Sharma, the film will be handling the subject of homosexuality. And, it won't be a timepass handling like most Indian films have done so far. Sanjay Sharma doesn't believe in being casual or bold about it as much as doing justice to the subject. The portrayal will be emotional and sensitive and will also have some rather graphic scenes between two male protagonists. However, it will all be done aesthetically and is not meant just for titillating or sensationalizing. The biggest wonder is that debutant Kapil Sharma would be one of those homosexual protagonists! So isn't he worried about being typecast since it's his debut? No, he isn't, because he feels Indian audience has matured by now to know that it is just a character that he is play

Syco owns the rights to a number of Cowell's talent show discoveries, including British singers Leona Lewis and Susan Boyle. The new venture will produce a range of music, television, film and digital content, often with other Sony divisions, the Financial Times added. (Reporting by Tim Castle; Editing by Lincoln Feast)

Kashmir is not just about guns, violence: Filmmaker Bhandarkar

Director Madhur Bhandarkar always dreamt of visiting Jammu and Kashmir and, when he finally did, he was inspired to 'bring laughter' to the Valley and shoot a comedy in its picturesque locales -- unlike the umpteen number of films on militancy and terror that Bollywood has churned out. 'I had never been to Kashmir in my entire life. It was a childhood dream to visit the Valley. I spent a large part of my growing-up years praying I'd get a chance to visit Kashmir. Then I decided I'll wait for my child to be born, so we can experience Kashmir together...Now I feel I've got one of my oldest dreams fulfilled,' says Bhandarkar, who went to Gulmarg with his wife and daughter for a holiday. 'It's so calm, peaceful and nourishing ... no sign of stress and violence,' Bhandarkar told IANS. Bhandarkar was so taken in by Kashmir that he is now thinking of setting his next film, a comedy, in the Valley. The filmmaker feels all the films shot in Kash

New Delhi, Jan 19 (IANS) Mimoh Chakraborty, the son of veteran actor Mithun Chakraborty , believes in getting into the skin of his characters - so much so that he went visiting various pubs and bars to learn how to be a good bartender for his role in his next project 'Spaghetti 24X7'. 'I have visited a lot of lounge bars and pubs not only in Mumbai but also in Kolkata so that I can play my role of a bartender in the film in a better way. I researched for three months for the character. I noticed every mannerism of bartenders,' Mimoh told IANS over phone from Kolkata. 'The way they talk, walk and the way they deal with their customers - I noticed everything. And after all the hard work we put in the research, I felt quite comfortable while shooting on the sets,' he said. 'Spaghetti 24X7' revolves around the concept of bars and the life of a bartender. The film's title is the name of the bar in the movie. The film, directed by Gaurav Pande

New Zealand TV faces flak for showing Diana film

Television New Zealand was under fire from critics for being insensitive by showing a film about the late Princess Diana while her son, Prince William, was still in country. But TV officials defended the broadcast of the film, The Queen, saying they did not check the royals' visit schedule before planning their programmes. Britain's William left New Zealand Tuesday after a three-day visit, his first solo official overseas tour representing his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II. In this wake there was controversy about the national television channel's decision to screen the film exploring the death of his mother, Princess Diana, while he was there. Letters to newspapers published Tuesday condemned the screening as 'grossly insensitive', a 'spectacular faux pas' and 'plain bad taste.' Television New Zealand broadcast The Queen, starring Helen Mirren, Sunday night, hours after William arrived, saying it had been programmed weeks ago and th

"Spartacus:Blood and Sand" arrives on Starz on Friday (Jan 22) in what the premium cable channel calls the most ambitious project it has ever undertaken in its drive to ramp up original programming alongside its feature movie staples. The action-adventure series about an ancient Roman gladiator who leads a slave rebellion is billed as a story of intrigue, corruption, treachery and sensual pleasures, with "Spider-Man" director Sam Raimi among the executive producer credits. Shot in the style of a graphic novel using computer-generated imagery, it also features full-frontal nudity in what producers call a reflection of the carnality of the mighty Roman empire. "Back in Roman times, there was a very different attitu

Lady Gaga and Lily Allen lead BRIT nominations

Image
LONDON (Reuters) - Young female acts dominated Monday's nominations for the BRIT music awards, with U.S. singer Lady Gaga taking on Britons Florence & the Machine, Lily Allen and Pixie Lott on their home patch. The shortlist for the annual showcase of British pop music reflected a year when many of the biggest hits were by solo female artists at the expense of the indie band. The awards ceremony, marking the 30th anniversary of the BRITs, takes place in London on Feb. 16. "The BRITs is the UK and Europe's premier music show and one of the biggest media events of the year," said Ged Doherty, chairman of the BRITs committee. "For the 30th BRITs show we're planning a landmark event that truly celebrates this occasion." The flamboyant Lady Gaga and Robbie Williams will be among the acts to perform at the ceremony. Williams has already been selected for an Outstanding Contr

Policemen injured in landmine blast in Kashmir

Image
A landmine explosion has injured six policemen in Indian-administered Kashmir, officials said. The incident took place in Tral township, 40km (25 miles) south of the summer capital, Srinagar. Police said the mine was planted on an iron bridge. The explosion was very powerful and shook nearby buildings, as well as damaging the bridge. The BBC's Altaf Hussain in Srinagar says there has been a sudden surge in violence in Kashmir. This has coincided with the souring of relations between India and Pakistan, he says. India and Pakistan both claim Kashmir in its entirety and have fought two wars over it. Flashpoint The police vehicle had just passed by when the explosion happened, officials said. Violence in Kashmir has decreased since 2004 when India and Pakistan signed a peace treaty. But in recent weeks there have been outbreaks of fighting. A 20-year insurgency against Indian rule in Jammu and Kashmir has claimed more than 47,000 lives since 1990. Kashm

Cancer-stricken actor Dennis Hopper divorcing wife

Image
By reuters Tuesday Jan 19 6:15 AM LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Bedridden Hollywood actor Dennis Hopper said on Monday he was seeking a divorce from his fifth wife while fighting what one of his children called "a hell of a battle" against prostate cancer. The unusual filing was made last Thursday. Hopper, 73, and Victoria Duffy have a 6-year-old daughter, Galen. Hopper has three other children from previous marriages. In a statement, Hopper was quoted as saying: "I wish Victoria the best, but only want to spend these difficult days surrounded by my children and close friends." Hopper, perhaps best known for directing and starring in the 1969 cult classic "Easy Rider," was diagnosed with cancer last September. A family friend said he has recently embarked on a new course of chemotherapy. His eldest daughter, Marin, said in a statement to Reuters: "Den

Starry Rewards, Stardust Awards

Image
Sharman Joshi must have felt like an 'Idiot'. In the true sense of the term, that is. At the glittering awards Stardust ceremony convened at Mumbai, he strolled in with panache with his smile in place, possibly assured that he would walk away with a 'Stardust' statuette. But… hard luck. After the event, SJ was stormed by channel crews demanding sound bytes. A sheepish Sharman said, "I came thinking that I would surely win, but I did not. Perhaps there was something lacking from my end. Maybe, I ought to work harder in my next film. And better luck to me next time around!." Akshay Kumar 's blue mood with 'Blue' tanking under troubled waters must have lessened, since he managed to win 'Best Popular Actor' for 'Blue'. The Bachchans seized a double whammy… Senior Bachchan for 'Paa' ('Star of the year–Male), while the reel 'Paa' managed to romp home with the 'Best Actor in a Suppor

89 Crores Gamble, K Jo 'Khan' Do It!

Image
Karan Johar and opulence are blood brothers. But 'My Name Is Khan' has profusly bled K Jo's finances with its extravagance. Reportedly, a nerve numbing 89 crores has already been spent on the Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol saga! "But the spending won't show!," avers Johar in a tabloid chat. "There was plenty of subtle but large expenditure because we had two large schedules, one in Los Angeles and the other in San Fransisco. We had a large American crew, many crowd scenes and marathon (250) location shifts." Confessedly, K Jo hasn't figured out the intricacies of budgeting for his flicks. "I'm ashamed of myself," cries the Dharma honcho, "I'm appalled at my sense of spending versus my budgeting. It's a good thing I make movies under my own banner. No one should ever hire me as director, not even my own banner!" But 'My Name… also boasts of new alliance, that of SRK

I find the sari to be the most sensuous and beautiful form of clothing ever made for a woman, " declares CJ.
