Actor Imran Khan feels the classic qawali number "Tayyab Ali", which has been recreated in his upcoming film 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobaara', will be popular among youngsters. The makers of 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobaara' bought the official rights of the song "Tayyab Ali Pyaar Ka Dushman" from Manmohan Desai, who directed and produced 1977 film 'Amar Akbar Anthony'. Imran and his co-star Sonakshi Sinha have recreated the magic of the evergreen song, which was originally picturised on Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, in 'Amar Akbar Anthony'. ""Tayyab Ali" song has been reinvented. It is perfect in the context we have used in the film. Also youngsters would get a chance to listen to the classic song in new style and certainly like it," Imran told reporters at the song launch. 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobaara' has been directed by Milan Luthria and produced by Ekta Kapoor and ...

Arjun will share screen space with lead actor Akshay Kumar in Gutka, a joint venture between Dharma and Hari Om Entertainment.

Incidentally, this is Arjun’s second Dharma flick after 2 State...

Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai Again Will Not Have Real Life Characters

Image
  Refuting rumours that his upcoming movie “Once Upon A Time in Mumbai Again” (OUATIMA) is based on the lives of two underworld dons – Dawood Ibrahim and Chota Rajan – Akshay Kumar said it is a fictional story with no real life characters. “Let me correct you, we are not playing real life characters,” said actor Akshay, who plays Shoaib Khan in the underworld drama, in which Imran Khan will be seen as Aslam. He said their film is a continuation from Once Upon A Time In Mumbai, the first part of the sequel to the superhit 2010 film which had starred Ajay Devgn and Emraan Hashmi. “It’s a fictional film. Lot of small, small incidents have been taken and added here,” he said.

John Abraham replaces Akshay Kumar in Welcome 2

Image
Well, John and Akshay have worked together in 3 movies out of which 2 have been successful at the box office. They shared excellent chemistry in 'Garam Masala', 'Desi Boyyz' and 'Housefull 2'. But now John Abraham is all set to replace Akshay Kumar in 'Welcome' franchise headed by producer Firoz Nadiadwala. The news comes as a surprise as Akshay has done many movies with Firoz including Hera Pheri, Phir Hera Pheri , Welcome, Aawara Pagal Deewana and Deewane Hue Pagal. But certainly situation has changed now. Firoz was trying to get Akshay for the sequel of Hera Pheri but things did not materialize. For Welcome sequel also Akshay does not seem to be much interested and hence Firoz was left with the only option to approach some other actor. John, on the other hand, readily agreed to do the movie. ' Welcome 2 ' will be directed by Anees Bazmee who helmed 'Welcome' too as it became the second biggest hit of 2007 after '...

Never-seen-before action in 'Boss': Akshay

Image
Mumbai: Akshay Kumar is ready to take action to the next level with his upcoming film 'Boss'. "Returning to my home turf, solid, never-seen-before action after 'Rowdy Rathore' with 'Boss'. In theatres on October 18, 2013," Akshay, a trained martial arts expert, wrote on Twitter. The 45-year-old established himself as an action hero with movies like 'Mr. And Mrs. Khiladi', 'Mohra', 'Main Khiladi Tu Anari'. However, he later diverted himself towards light movies like 'Dil To Pagal Hai', 'Hera Pheri', 'Awara Paagal Deewana' and 'Mujhse Shaadi Karoge'. It was his 2012 movie 'Rowdy Rathore', which was said to be his return to the action genre. However, if one goes by Akshay's tweet, 'Boss' might have tougher action.

Akshay Kumar Wants his Son To Learn Dancing From Hrithik Roshan

Image
  Hrithik Roshan has become as inspiration for all the dance lovers. Ever since he entered in Bollywood with debut film Kaho Na Pyar Hai, his fans could not stop raving about his dance style. Now, there is one more admirer Akshay Kumar added to his fan list. He is so impressed that he wants his son Aarav to learn dance from Hrithik Roshan. Well! It seems Duggu has won a new fan for himself in the form of Akshay Kumar. The Khiladi who is the king of action and often referred to as the ‘Indian Jackie Chan’ was all praises for the dancing skills of the star. He is so impressed that he wishes that his son Aarav would get the dancing lessons from him. Akshay was bowled over by one of the recent scorching dance performance that Hrithik put up on stage during an award function. Akshay Kumar recently quoted while speaking to a leading national daily, “This is something I have always thought — if Hrithik ever opens a dance class, my son would be the first person to jo...

Top 5 Male Jodis of last 10 years

Image
Two top leading men sharing space with each other in one movie has always been a mantra for success in Bollywood. Audiences also get to see two huge stars in one ticket itself. There have been many successful male pairs in Bollywood who have proved to be a money machine for producers and total paisa vasool for the cinegoers.  But if we look at the movies in the last decade, this trend is on the verge of extinction. One reason can be cost as affording 2 top leading men in the same movie will increase the budget manifold. Other reason can be lack of scripts justifying the roles of both male leads so that insecurity level should not be there. So mostly in two hero projects, we usually see one huge star supported by a male actor having comparatively less market value. Here is my list of top 5 leading male pairs in the last decade (2003-2012) who I badly want to see again.   1.)     Salman-Akshay: - Sallu and Akki are the 2 biggest mass superstars of this gen...

Top 10 Most Powerful stars of Bollywood today

Image
Box Office verdict of a movie is the ultimate measurement of any star's power. Based on the box office openings and verdicts of their previous few movies, here is the list of top 10 most powerful male stars of Bollywood today: 1.) Salman Khan : Ever since Dabangg hit the jackpot in 2010, there is no looking back for Salman Khan. All his movies after that have been blockbusters and his stardom has touched the height which very few stars have seen in their life. Salman's last 5 movies Dabangg2, Ek Tha Tiger, Bodyguard, Ready and Dabangg have been viewed by millions of viewers worldwide in theatres. 2.) Shah Rukh Khan: Even though SRK's last three movies have not got the best of reviews, still they managed to comfortably cross 100 crores at Indian Box Office. Ra.One and Don 2 were not typical Shah Rukh Khan movies while Jab Tak Hai Jaan faced a strong opposition from Son Of Sardar. In Overseas though, SRK is the undisputed King for more than a decade now. ...

However, Akshay’s rendition of the track has not yet been added to the album which was launched yesterday. Special 26 which also stars Kajal Aggarwal, Manoj Bajpayee, Anupam Kher and Jimmy Sheirgill is slated for release this February.

Salman Khan vs Akshay Kaumr : EID 2013

Image
Last week, Balaji announced the release of their keenly awaited film Once Upon A Time In Mumbai 2. Since Salman Khan is yet to make any announcement for EID 2013,Balaji were quick to officially block the festive weekend for their most ambitious feature film. Now, a source close to Salman informs us, that the actor will definitely have a release for EID next year.It’s unclear whether the film will be Sajid Nadiadwala’s "Kick", Sohail Khan’s "Sher Khan" or Anees Bazmee's "No Entry Mein Entry". Considering the fact that Once Upon A Time In Mumbai 2 is the sequel to a commercially successful film,the expectations are high and the film is likely to shatter box-office records when it releases. On the other hand, a clash against a Salman Khan film is unimaginable. Would you want to see Salman Khan vs Akshay Kumar for EID 2013? Tell in the comments
