Vidya Balan in about Kissing



Yes! You heard it right, its Vidya Balan who has no problem kissing any actor. It is definitely a big surprise to see Vidya making such a statement. She is the actress who has captured the imaginations of the masses with her classical looks.

And everyone assumed her to be the innocent girl next door who is very choosy when it comes to kissing scenes in a movie, and if that’s what you still think then your mistaken because Vidya has recently said that she is always ready to kiss any actor.

Vidya started her Career with Parineeta and set her foot in the Industry, then her work in Lage Raho was appreciated and now she’s one among the top actresses. Vidya drew herself out of the simple- cute image when she surprised everyone by Kissing Madhavan in the movie Guru.

And it’s not over there, she has said that she is ready to kiss any actor as long as it is shot in an aesthetic manner and if the director is someone she trusts. Well, this shows how the industry influences a person to act according to their demands. .

Abhishek and Vivek Together



Abhishek and Vivek had worked together in Shootout At Lookhandwala, but they did not do any role together. Now the two will be sharing the screen together in Apoorva Lakhia next Mission Istanbul. The movie is been directed by Suniel Shetty.


When asked Suniel about these two he said that they will be working together and neither Abhishek nor Vivek has any problems with each other. Talking about the movie Suniel said that Mission Istanbul is being made on an international scale. “The theme requires an international vision. My director is browsing for F-X team from the outside.

It will be top-of-the-line technicians from abroad. The movie’s shooting will be in Turkey and they have been provided with the infrastructure they require for their project.

Sounds like an interesting project isn’t it? Well after Ash getting married to Abhishek I don’t think Vivek or anyone else will have any problem with them, and it’s really nice to see Vivek and Abhishek working together.
Suniel will have a real tough time to produce a movie with such a powerful subject. Recently movies like Cash and Dhoom 2 were a huge hit and future action packed movies have good competition from these movies.

Eklavya intoOscar entry



Eklavya gets Oscar entry. They are very few movies in the industry which have got a chance to enter the Oscars and Eklavya has made it this time. Though the movie didn’t do well in India but it has got an entry to the Oscar’s which shows that the movie is really good one.

The movie depicts a violent family saga starring Amitabh Bachchan, and has been nominated as India’s official entry for Oscar award for the best foreign movie category.

This is the third time that a film by Vidhu Vinod Chopra will be going to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Earlier his short non-fiction film ‘An Encounter with Faces’ was one of the first Indian films to be nominated for an Oscar in 1980. In 1989, Parinda was sent to the Oscars as India’s official entry.

One question which is running on the minds of people is that, does Eklavya deserve this? Well I haven’t seen the movie so cannot comment on it. But for all those who have seen the movie – Here’s just one question to ask, do you think the decision of taking Eklavya to Oscar’s is right?

Currently talks are being made to have a performance by shah Rukh. Ekta said that she always wanted television to get its recognition and she feels today, television is able to deliver more glamour, grandeur and density than the average ‘multiplex’ film.

JOHAN ABRAHAM LOOKS CAN KILL



Looks can kill… your chances of being taken seriously as an actor. ANURAG KASHYAP thought it would be quite difficult to direct a good-looking JOHN ABRAHAM in No Smoking. He was wondering how this picture-perfect guy could ever make a picture perfect. Expecting the worst, Anurag was pretty impressed with apna Johnny Bravo.

The actor along with RANVIR SHOREY has a blast while shooting the film and mostly gave kashyap brilliant shots in the first take itself. That’s why we say to never judge an actor by his looks!
