Go Goa Gone

'Go Goa Gone' gets A Certificate Passed Without Cuts! 

As an absolute fact, the actor can raise a sigh of relief as his upcoming production has been passed by the censor board without any cuts.

Furthermore, while at the music launch of Go Goa Gone last week, Saif Ali Khan looked relaxed and completely at ease, happy with his upcoming zombie flick. Nevertheless, there was just one little thing on the actor’s mind that made him a bit uneasy.

Saif was worried about the content kind of the film and whether it would be cleared by the censors considering the movie had loads of gore, risqué dialogues and some recreational drug use shown. an anxious Saif had then said that he have given a lot of gaalis (bad words) in Russian and Hindi and therefore he is just hoping the film does not get banned!.

Interestingly, the actor need not worry anymore since the censor board has not deleted or edited any major scenes from the movie. Even-though, it has been granted an A certificate and that the audience will be able to see the original uncut version of the movie by directors Krishna DK and Raj Nidimoru.

As a concluding factor, most likely the film is finally in the safe zone!

So, are you ready?

Sunny Leone Signs Three Film Deal for Rs. 5 Crores! 

Sunny Leone has signed a three-film deal with producer Parag Sanghvi (last film 24/7) for a whopping amount of Rs 5 crore. It is learnt that the adult movie star’s contract with the filmmaker has a clause stating she cannot do any other film till she finishes her three-film deal with Alumbra Entertainment the production house.
 
Furthermore, that probably also explains why the actress is not taking on any new films post her upcoming Ragini MMS 2 and an item song in Shootout At Wadala. It is being said that the clause has put her in a fix as she is getting several offers but is not being able to consider because of the restriction.
 
Nevertheless, Sanghvi refuses to agree that he is standing in her way of signing new films, while he said that they share a very cordial relationship and there’s nothing that can’t be sorted out over talks. Moreover, there’s no clause banning her from shooting for any other film till she doesn’t complete her films with them. She knows that if there are any such hurdles, they can mutually work around them. She is a professional and he is sure that she will not let the commitment to one film affect another one. It’s her call completely and that they plan to finish off three films in two years.

Sanghvi, when asked about the remuneration of Rs 5 crore, he shakes his head while he said sorry but he can’t talk about that. The filmmaker is unwilling to reveal anything about his upcoming projects with her as well. He added that it’s too early to reveal any details. They are supposed to start shooting after three months and they are still in finalising stages for the first film which will be on the lines of a thriller which is all he can say at this point.

Gorgeous Sunny Leone

Gorgeous Sunny Leone replaces Mallika Sherawat in Welcome 2 

 

Arousing a feeling of interest, it seems actress Sunny Leone is on a roll these days. Furthermore, not only has she signed a three-film deal with producer Parag Sanghvi for a whopping Rs5 crore, the buzz is that the former adult movie star  Sunny Leone replaced Mallika Sherawat in Welcome 2.

In fact, Sunny will essay the role of Nana Patekar and Anil Kapoor's love interest in the film, which was played by Mallika in the prequel. As a matter of fact, with Sunny being a passion symbol with men, the makers of the film think that Mallika is no more a crowd puller.

Nevertheless, a source quoted by Bollywood Mantra says, Mallika is busy doing her television show, and besides, the filmmakers felt that she isn’t as popular as she was during the making of Welcome. In fact, Sunny’s growing popularity on the other hand, works very well for the film.

As a concluding factor, Mallika will soon be seen on Bachelorette India, Mere Khayalon Ki Mallika, which is the Indian version of the American competitive reality dating game show The Bachelor.

Time comes for all,whether sooner or later!

Sherlyn Chopra Kamasutra 3D First Look

Sherlyn Chopra Kamasutra 3D First Look

Sherlyn Chopra who shot to fame after Playboy decided to use her as the bunny on the cover page of the adult men's magazine (which we are yet to see) has signed up for Kamasutra 3D but there has been no more news of her lately. She presented her fans with Kamasutra 3D poster's first look where she is topless and yet hiding her assets well behind the post of a royal looking bed. Sherlyn Chopra Kamasutra 3D First Look

Her provocative pose definitely has taken the expectations of the movie higher than ever. In her Twitter post she addressed her fans celebrating her success “1 of the few posters of Kamasutra 3D to be shortly showcased at a press conference at the 66th Cannes Film Festival.”

Sherlyn and the director are not on good terms currently resulting in a large delay for the shootings. He was not happy when his bunny shared the first look of the picture and a few other posts earlier. Things seem to be fine at the moment after a source tells us that they have come to an understanding and that the movie won't be hampered by delays.

We cannot give you access to the PlayBoy covershot but here is what we can do!

Aashiqui 2 Is Munificent In Its Platitude

After the success of Aashiqui, the rumors that the sequel would surpass the original film were rampant but what we saw at the theater was the exact opposite. There is no similarity it shares with the main film except for the title. In fact, this movie seemed to be a rip off from the old Amitabh starrer Abhimaan without the emotional or action content.

Rahul Jaykar (Aditya Roy Kapur) is a hearth trob and a prodigy at singing and is in love with Aarohi (Shraddha Kapoor) who sings mellifluously at local joints while trying to be a big name in the music universe. Rahul who already has earned a name trains Aarohi and helps her towards her dream. Arranging auditions and teaching her tricks of the trade they start getting closer and closer. Aashiqui 2 Movie Review

Tables are turned when Aarohi earns a name as a big star. Rahul's career path starts waning away. Is love is more important than career? Aarohi has to make sacrifices to keep up her love life. Their efforts make the rest of the story.

The movie is hardly something to expect excellence from but Aditya Roy Kapoor is the magic element. Not only is he handsome, but also his skills of action are great. This is nothing new to us with his performances in Guzaarish, Action Replayy and London Dreams. Glam doll Shraddha Kapoor has to learn that looks only don't matter anymore.

Mohit Suri has done a decent yet insufficient job in directing the movie which had a threadbare plot that is munificent in its platitude. Music is another point where the movie scores. Tum Hi Ho has been smooth as honey. 'Bhula Dena', 'Sunn Raha Hai' are other songs worth a mention. Composition is great, Kudos to Mithoon, Jeet Ganguly and Ankit Tiwari.

Plot of the movie is just average but the climax is what waters the movie down. There is no punch to build any drama in the movie. You lose nothing if you haven't got a ticket to this movie or if you are busy browsing facebook at your office.

Non Bailable Arrest Warrant Against Sanjay Dutt

On Monday, Mumbai's local court issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against actor Sanjay Dutt.

According to Indian news channel Times Now, the warrant was issued after Dutt failed to appear in an Andheri court in connection with a criminal case filed by film producer Shakeel Noorani.

Fact-fully, the arrest warrant is a result of a long-standing dispute between Noorani and Dutt.

Noorani has declared that the actor threatened him after Dutt uninhibited his project Jaan Ki Baazi in 2002. In fact, he claimed that halfway through the film, Dutt cancelled the shoot and refused to respond to his calls.

As a concluding fact, following in order, Noorani filed a case with the Indian Motion Picture’s Producers Association (IMPAA), which directed Dutt to pay the producer more than Rs20 million for the losses incurred. Noorani moved the case to Mumbai high court for the execution of that order.

Now, it's another big blunder for Sanjay Dutt!

Whats The Mystery Behind Aashiqui 2 Poster

Interestingly, Smiley Suri has posed for the Aashiqui 2 poster because she is director Mohit Suri's lucky charm. To say more, the forthcoming romantic musical saga, however, has Shraddha Kapoor as the female lead, while Aditya Roy Kapur plays her love interest.

Smiley had debuted in 2005 with her brother Mohit's second directorial venture Kalyug, about the pornography industry, and the film turned out to be a huge success at the box office. 

Smiley says that it's herself in the poster and the fact remain that when Mohit decided to make the film, he didn't have a face for the film, so he requested her if she could pose for the poster. So there it's herself. 

Fact-fully, Mahesh Bhatt (who had produced and directed the original) wanted the poster to be the same as Aashiqui so they requested her to pose for a picture under the jacket.

"The girl in the sari is not herself but it's Shraddha. But the girl in the dress and there in the CDs, it's me. Mohit considers herself as his lucky charm and she can never say no to him while continues saying that she have been assisting him since Zehar, so in each film she try to contribute her bit for him.

As a concluding fact, Aashiqui 2 is not a sequel to Aashiqui having the only similarity is that both are music-based romantic films.

The film is being co-produced by Mukesh Bhatt and Bhushan Kumar and looking forward for an April 26 release.

Hope the film would gain similar applauds and popularity as in case of earlier  Aashiqui being a musical blockbuster.

All the very best for  Aashiqui 2!

Katrina All Praises For Sallu

Well, this could be bothering for Kat's present beau Ranbir Kapoor. But Katrina who was not in good terms with Salman, after the release and success of 'Ek Tha Tiger' has been praising Salman Khan, off late.

That’s not all, according to the sources, Katrina has been admitting Salman was her biggest support to be whatever she is today and stood by her during her tough times.

After a much hyped relationship and a break up with Salman, Katrina moved to Ranbir and these two seem to be very much together from more than a year now… so naturally, Katrina is no more with Salman… but unlike Sallu’s ex girl friends who are not even in talking terms with this Actor, Katrina chose to maintain a cordial relationship with Salman and this made her do a special song in ‘Bodyguard’ and pair opposite Salman in ‘Ek Tha Tiger’…

Now, Katrina’s soft corner towards Salman even after these many years of their break up might be bothering Ranbir at a great extent.

Tamanna At A Loss

And this is more when compared to Actress Trisha, who has done a hindi film when her South ka career was going on well, and when this film did not work at box office, was intelligent enough to move back to south and even after more than 10 years in the Industry, managing to get some work…

Tamanna who chose to give her B – Town career a great twist remained at a loss, according to the experts.

The actress whose career as a heroine in South was going on really well and Tamanna was getting some good offers, took a decision to slow down her work in South, moved to B – Town, signed ‘Himmatwaala’ remake opposite Ajay Devgan, directed by Sajid Khan. That’s not all, Tamanna also had a deal with this film maker, that she would not sign any other B – Town film, until the release of ‘Himmatwaala’.

But, to everyone’s surprise, the result of this film after release came to a shock for one and all and for Tamanna at a major extent. The actress was compared to Sridevi in original version and top of this even the film not earning so good reviews at the box office, Tamanna’s career in B – Town had to take a back seat…

As of now, with great difficulty Tamanna managed to get a heroine ka role in another Hindi film. But all those star heroes (rumored none other than Salman Khan) who showed interest in working with Tamanna have decided to give this thought a break, considering ‘Himmatwaala’s release.

Its better for Tamanna to start accepting some offers from South, now.

A Year Of Sequels For Hollywood

Hollywood might not be overt or proud about it but it definitely tries to make the most of a name that was successful earlier milking it for profits over and over. Sequels go on releasing for the movies. Is this an indicator of decline in the originality of the movies? Maybe and maybe not.

2013 could be the year of sequels with as many as 30 of them releasing over the course of the year. Movies like A Good Day to Die Hard, Texas Chainsaw 3D among others already released while garnering a lukewarm response, there are several of them impending a release in the days to come.

Movies like Iron Man 3 Iron Man 3 (April 26), Star Trek: Into Darkness (May 17), Kick Ass-2, Fast & Furious Six (May 24), Hangover III (May 31), Red 2, The Wolverine (July 26), 300: Rise Of An Empire (Aug 2), The Hunger Games: Catching Fire and The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (Dec 13) are the highly anticipated movies of the year.

Animation sensation, Despicable Me 2 will also release this year. Popular flicks like Paranormal Activity, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, Anchorman: The Legend Continues etc are all lining up to take a bite off the box office.

Here is a list of the other sequels releasing this year: Monsters University, Thor: The Dark World, Riddick, Insidious Chapter 2, Cloudy 2: Revenge Of The Leftovers (Dec 20), Scary Movie 5, Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters (Aug 16), The Last Excorcism II, The Smurfs 2 (Aug 2) and Grown Ups 2 (Aug 30).

The Star sequel performer would be Bruce Willis who will lead four titles this year in the sequel section. Apart from the  A Good Day To Die Hard, and G I Joe: Retaliation which have already been released, highly anticipated movies like Red 2 and Sin City: A Dame To Kill For will also feature him.

Justine Bieber Confessions Of A Teenage Drama King

Teen pop sensation Justine Bieber has proven that in terms of attaining maturity he is still a 'Baby'. Though, it is true that age is not the only factor to become mature or responsible, yet his some comments and deeds compel us to think that it will take some time for Bieber to come out of his teen idol fame and handle his success like a grown up.

In a fresh example ,Justin Bieber stopped by the Anne Frank House on Friday (April 12), touring the Amsterdam hiding place of the young Holocaust victim and diarist. But it wasn't his appearance that got people talking -- it was his comments. He wrote in the guest book "Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber."

The last lineof the comment has stirred a controversy  on social media, with people calling Bieber "a little idiot" who is "way too full of himself."  One Facebook commenter wrote, "Glad he went, but, the last sentence is VERY self serving. He missed the lessons of Anne totally," while another added, "How does he manage to think about his own fame and success attending a historical place of such tragedy and injustice?"

Seriously....GROW UP KID...!

The Bieber Mania Is On

To say more, organisers of the Canadian pop star’s debut appearance in the Middle East have added a second date in Dubai on May 5 for his Believe World Tour. Moreover, tickets to his May 4 show at Dubai Sevens Stadium was rapidly sold-out as die-hard Bieber fans seized them up immediately after they went on sale on September 23 last year. Fact-fully, according to Done Events ticket prices for the second concert remain the same and start at Dh350.

Moreover, Done Events COO Thomas Ovesen says that adding a second show to his first ever Middle East visit gives Justin Bieber and their team another great opportunity to accommodate the huge demand from Middle East fans wanting to see the show and so we are very excited that Justin Bieber has agreed to extend his Dubai stay by another day to help fulfill the dreams of more regional fans.

Absolute interestingly, the famous teen, with more than 27 million followers on Twitter, is known to unleash Bieber mania wherever he goes, interestingly his devoted fans call themselves Beliebers. Although the 19-year-old pop prince’s global tour has been persistent in effort by controversy, the latest incident involving his trip to the Anne Frank museum in Amsterdam.

Randeep Hooda And Neetu Chandra Are Over

Randeep is a recusant while Neetu is a traditional desi girl. They are not a good combination, and have decided to Randeep And Neetu end their relationship. It is official now.

Though the stars were both together since almost three years now, mid-2010, they hardly spoke openly about their affair. The couple were so into each other that we have envisioned a diamond ring sooner or later. In fact, Neetu has even met Randeep's parents and we thought that is when the deal was signed but little did we guess that they would move apart in different ways.

Both of them have been really busy with their works now. Randeep has too many movie for the rest of the year. Neetu is busy with Delhi Belly's Tamil remake. However, both of them decided not to come out in the public.

We should have taken hints when Neetu Chanrdra came out to the media telling that they were a couple but said she was not ready for marriage nor did she find a future with Randeep yet.

Ameesha Patel Sizzles At Desi Magic Lauch

After a long period of dormancy hot actress Ameesha decided to brighten and lighten the stage with her fresh look in a Gothic attire for the launch of her new movie Desi Magic. The movie would be produced by her home production after being directed by Abbas Mastan.

 

 

She will star alongside Zayed Khan, Randhir Kapoor and Ravi Kishan.

With a lot of 'kajal' around her eyes and a different style of dressing, the audience could barely lay their eyes off her. She seemed to be in high spirits and lost a lot of weight that accentuated her curves.

Her different looks with the T-Shirt portraying a skull with a sword dug into it and black stockings supported by garters added to the Goth look.

The 37 year old started her career with Hrithik Roshan in 2000 in the superhit film Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai. She later starred in several other big flicks like Gadar, Humraaz and Bhool Bhulaiya.

After 2007 she was completely erased from the movie industry and she had nothing but a few cameo roles to boast in Om Shanti Om and Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic. It was her low time with personal issues and conflicts with her parents too.

She will work with Neil Nitin Mukhesh after this movie in Shortcut Romeo.

The cheesy kind of dance with a funny and yet catchy tune has been lauded by people all over the world. The trend of Gangnam style is down now but that is not the end of Psy. He plans to come out with another equally funny song with yet another unique dance moves in his upcoming single Gentleman.

Though the K-Pop singer refused to reveal further details, the said that the song would be named Gentleman and that the song would be extremely funny. He adds that the dance is popular in South Korea, his homeland, but it would definitely be different and new to the rest of the world. Psy became popular with the invisible horse dance while making a mockery of all the middle class people trying to behave like high class people from the “Gangnam” area.

The song will be released on April 12th and the Koreans would be the first to hear it. On April 13th the song will go public with an open concert to the people. He urged fans to come in white to the concert while posing in a space suit/bridal gown combo himself.

With such hype, it is inconceivable that Psy lives upto the expectations. As Eminem rightly said, “Super stardom is close to post-mortem”.
