Talking about the movie which recently went on floors, Shashanth Shah, the director of the movie said I love the concept of revenge comedy because it manages to combine laughter with vigilante aspect in one package. I have a fabulous star cast and a perfect background like Delhi to shoot in“.

We have seen many genres of comedy being made in our country, and so it was time for something differently funny. The beauty about the story of Bhajathe Raho is that it will keep you on the edge laughing. We have a superb cast who have time and again proved that they wear comedy not just on their sleeves, but in their hearts as well. And Shashant is a storyteller who has proved in the past his capability of narrating one in a brilliant manner. I am having fun producing this film and I am sure the audiences will have fun watching it too” says producer Krishika Lulla.

Priyanka Chopra

After contemplating over it for a long time now, Priyanka Chopra has finally given a nod to an item number, the first in her career, for Sanjay Gupta’s gangster flick, ‘Shootout At Wadala’. The item song has been titled Babli Badmaash Hai.

Priyanka Chopra gave a green signal to the item track only after reviewing it completely. She made sure that the dance moves are not very sexually provoking and also the lyrics of the track are not too profane. Reportedly, the song is very vintage style, scored by Anu Malik and sung by Sunidhi Chauhan, and will be used for promoting the film.

If sources are to be believed, PeeCee was given three numbers to choose from, off which she picked ‘Babli Badmaash Hai’. Buzz is, the song will see PeeCee doff a hat to Zeenat Aman in Aap Jaisa Koi and Parveen Babi in Jeete Hain Shaan Se.

“When PeeCee heard the song, she thought it was RD Burman meeting Feroz Khan,” said the source. “Glamour yes, but no vulgarity,” added the source. Sanjay Gupta says the song will have a retro feel. “We are still working on the styling. There’s lot of detailing that’s required,” he said.

The song will be shot over three days in Goregaon and Gupta will be personally involved in the shoot.

The focus should now be on Rs 1000 crore club, says Karan Johar

The focus should now be on Rs 1000 crore club, says Karan Johar

Karan Johar

Every time a film crosses Rs.100 crore, the Bollywood industry celebrates its success with great pride and enthusiasm. However, filmmaker Karan Johar feels Rs 1,000-crore box office is not far away if the industry taps potential across all verticals.

Karan Johar, who is also the co-chairman of the FICCI Frames 2013, says that the film industry is limiting itself by focusing wholly on the Rs.100 crore benchmark. Now, the focus should be on Rs.1,000 crore club.

“Rs.100 crore is restricting the limits of our self. We must add one more zero the Rs.100 crore films and take it to the next level. Rs.100 crore is limiting the growth and content (of films). The possibilities are endless, and we must focus on Rs.1000 crore mark instead,” Karan Johar said here.

“In next five years, we will be in a position… it might sound aspirational, but there is a possibility that we may have achieved all that,” added the filmmaker.

Karan took to stage on Monday at a press conference of FICCI Frames 2013. The entertainment and business summit of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) will begin on Wednesday in Mumbai, with the theme, “A Tryst Destiny: Engaging a Billion Consumers”.

At the FICCI meet, various topics like digitization, censorship, marketing, exhibition, distribution, the future of content consumption in an era progressively getting defined by the digital media, innovation and planning required in various policy issues within TV, cinema, animation and gaming, will be discussed.

Saif Ali Khan to give up royal habits for ‘Bullet Raja’

Saif Ali Khan to give up royal habits for ‘Bullet Raja’

Saif Ali Khan

Saif Ali Khan and Jimmy Shergill’s characters in Bullet Raja are very similar to that of Paul Newman and Robert Redford’s roles from ‘Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid’, says director Tigmanshu Dhulia.

Incidentally, “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” happens to be one of Saif’s favorite movies and the actor plays a trigger-happy protagonist in the film. ‘Bullet Raja’ has been names after Saif’s character in the film who has a tendency of firing bullets and riding the Bullet brand of motorcycle.

“Saif and Jimmy are akin to Paul Newman and Robert Redford’s roles from ‘Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid’. Irrfan Khan comes into the story midway as a ruthless cop who is summoned to stop Saif’s no-holds-barred outlawry,” said a source.

“Bullet Raja” portrays Saif Ali Khan as the fastest gun in Lucknow, the source added, saying: “And he loves it. He is exploring the adventurous royal side of his personality, firing guns, screeching down dusty roads on his trademark Bullet mobike, looking for a new adventure every day.”

Saif will have to get rid of his royal habits and cultured accent so as to get into the character.

Said Dhulia: “Saif is really enjoying himself. He is the only star-actor after Aamir Khan, who has the draw and the ability to get completely into character. I am his dialogue coach on location here. I brief him very closely on how to deliver his lines. He listens, absorbs, and practises the dialogues till he gets them just right.”

According to Dhulia, Saif is talented enough to get into any character given to him.

“He possesses a world-view, has a sound knowledge of music, literature and the fine arts. He has taken possession of Bullet Raja’s character. He lives the role even when the camera is off. He wants to know what the character is doing when he is not in the frame. That kind of dedication I got when Irrfan played ‘Paan Singh Tomar’.”

Bullet Raja is set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh-based mafia while dealing with the underworld. The film will release on 6 September 2013.
