Pamela Chopra Hosts Dinner For Aditya & Rani Mukerji Chopra

The YRF honcho Aditya Chopra is back from Italy with wife Rani Mukerji post their secretive wedding and honeymoon. The Chopra lad has the impression of a social recluse but still on his mother’s insistence, he agreed on having close family friends over for dinner.

According to a source close to Adi, the Chopra lad was against the idea of a reception but when his mom Pamela Chopra organized a dinner for her son and his new bahu Rani, he couldn’t disagree to it. The dinner was Senior Mrs Chopra’s idea and she keenly invited all close family friends over to introduce Aditya and Rani officially as a couple. Since no one got to be a part of the hush-hush Italian wedding, Pam Chopra thought this was necessary.

Aditya hosted the grand dinner which had a hefty guest list consisting of old friends of Adi’s and the Chopras’. Making entry were Anupam Kher with wife Kirron, Nitin Mukesh with wife as well as B.R Chopra’s grandsons Abhay Chopra and Kapil Chopra. Since Adi’s first cousin Ravi Chopra isn’t in good health, he couldn’t come for the dinner.

A leading daily reported that the newly weds looked delighted. Rani looked after each guest personally and the evening ended on a good note. Here’s Koimoi wishing Rani and Aditya a lifetime of happiness together.

Shraddha-Sidharth Shot Underwater For ‘Galliyan For 7 Hrs

Shooting is all about adventure. And anyone who is even remotely close to Bollywood will agree that a lot of toiling goes into making a film. It is definitely no cakewalk to be an actor, who constantly grills himself to entertain all. Newbies Shraddha Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra can totally vouch for this. The actors apparently shot for an underwater sequence that required them to stay inside water for nearly seven hours.
Shraddha and Sidharth were shooting for a song Galliyan, for their upcoming film Ek Villain. Shraddha is a trainer diver and even Sidharth has a liking for water sports especially scuba diving. The lead duo were extremely excited for the schedule and gladly shot extensively for it.
The production team had to put in a lot of effort as well by sending french divers to carry oxygen cylinders for them. They followed the actors constantly ensuring that the shooting did not to get disrupted.
We would say Kudos to the sporting lead pair. Ek Villain, directed by Mohit Suri, is being produced by Ekta Kapoor and is slated to release on 27th June, 2014.

Humshakals Theatrical Promo To Unveil On Wednesday

The wait is going to be over very soon. After the unveiling of its digital motion poster a few weeks back during India-Pakistan T-20 match, ‘Humshakals‘ promotion would now be entering its second leg. Theatrical promo of the Sajid Khan directed comedy would be launched online across all channels this Wednesday.

“The motion poster was just a teaser of sorts and now with the film nine weeks away, there would be enhanced momentum in the film’s promotion starting with the theatrical trailer,” confirms our source.

Those who have had a dekko already are vouching for it to be just the kind of Summer blockbuster that one is expecting.

“It is a fast paced promo with something happening practically every moment,” reveals an insider, “It is rip roaring, colorful and vibrant. The very USP of seeing Saif Ali Khan, Riteish Deshmukh and Ram Kapoor is well projected here. Moreover, for those looking for glamour quotient, Tamannaah Bhatia, Bipasha Basu and Esha Gupta make for an enticing appearance too. Just wait and watch.”

 

Apparently, Sajid went through the most minute details for days at succession to get every frame right and went through multiple options before green lighting the promo which is now ready to be released.

“I had to,” says Sajid, “My promise to the audience is ’9 Times The Fun’ and for that I had to work at least 9 times harder on the promo.”

No wonder, producers Fox and Vashu Bhagnani are vouching for the promo that has been cut and are anticipating record views for it in quick time before the film readies for its 20th June release.

Kangana Ranaut & Irrfan Khan In Sai Kabir’s Next ‘Divine Lovers’

Kangana Ranaut is on a career high. After a massive hit like Queen, the actress was back with another ‘Revolver Rani‘. Impressed with her performance in Revolver Rani, the film’s director Sai Kabir has decided to cast this ‘Queen‘ again.

According to a popular daily, the director has cast the talented Irrfan Khan opposite Kangana Ranaut for his next titled ‘Divine Lovers‘. The film will be minus all the action and feisty pulp drama of Revolver Rani. The story will revolve around the moral corruption in the middle-class section of society. This is the first time Kanagana will star opposite Irrfan Khan.

A sequel to Revolver Rani may also be on the cards. The director confirmed to the same daily of aspiring to make Revolver Rani a franchise film.

Kaanchi Has A Dismal 1st Monday At the Box Office

Kaanchi had less reasons to smile on Monday as it experienced a considerable drop. The film raked in 45 lakhs on its first Monday. With this, the film now stands with a collection of 3.45 crores at the domestic box office.

Kaanchi starring newbie Mishti and Krtik Tiwari in the lead roles kept up its low spirit after having a poor weekend. The film failed to be crowd puller considering the film had nothing new to offer. The film’s music was a downer and low critics ratings paved way for the film to perform dull at the box office.

 Kaanchi has been showing a downward trend so far. The film may collect some more moolah in the week but the first week collections may be restricted to 5 crores.

Revolver Rani Performs Below Par On 1st Monday At The Box Office

Revolver Rani had extremely low collections on its 4th Day i.e. 1st Monday at the Domestic Box Office. The film managed to rake in mere 90 Lakhs yesterday, which is a huge drop since the opening day. This Kangana Ranaut starrer now stands with a collection of 6.90 crores at the domestic box office.

No doubt, the film failed to impress the audiences. Unlike Queen which picked up after having a slow start, Revolver Rani seems to be on a downward trend. Even though the film had decent critics ratings, the film could not create a positive word of mouth.

With a screen count of 1500, Revolver Rani had no takers in multiplexes or single screens. The film is not expected to create any profit for the makers. The first week business for this film can be estimated at around 8-9 crores.

Post 2nd Monday, 2 States Makes 124% Profit At The Box Office

2 States on its 2nd Monday fared remarkably well at the box office making a steady income of 2.35 crores at the domestic box office. The film has so far pooled in a total of 78.35 crores at the box office.

A fresh script boasting of the great chemistry between its lead stars Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor, the film ranks as the second highest grosser of 2014 after Jai Ho surpassing Gunday which wrapped up its lifetime earn at 76.55 crores.

 

Made on a modest budget of 35 crores, the film has so far raked up a profit of 43.35 crores. The film’s profit rate right now rests at 124%.

2 States Profit earning
Box Office collection	78.35
Cost	35.00
Return on Investment	43.35
ROI %	124%

Due to the dull releases at the box office as a result of the IPL fever, 2 States is the only prominent movie minting money at the box office and has a good chance to make better gains if the stable income is maintained.

Akshay Trains In Russian Knife Fighting Tolpar With Mumbai Police

Mumbai Police brought in Russian experts to train their women staff in Tolpar, which is a form of fine martial arts that indulges in knife fighting. The training in Tolpar requires one to be nimble and intelligent more than being physically overpowering. It was quite a surprise that the police folk was joined by Bollywood’s Khiladi Akshay Kumar  , who too trained himself in Tolpar along with the women police.

It is widely known that Akshay is a black belt expert and fancies martial arts quite keenly. As per a leading daily, Akshay loved the experience of learning Toplar. Mostly an intelligent way of fighting, Toplar gives women an edge over men who depend on physical prowess for their strength.

Akshay Kumar

 

Akshay’s involvement in learning newer forms of martial arts and his curiousness to explore more varieties, shows the actor’s deep interest in women’s safety. With the number of rape cases being lodged doubling itself over time, and sexual terrorism almost at its hilt, Tolpar will atleast help keep Mumbai tad bit safer

Priyanka, with brilliant item numbers last year, has quite shown a flair for it and one can expect a sizzling item number of the same order introducing her in the film, suggested sources close to the film.

Kapil Sharma Has More Fan Following Than SRK

If you thought Shah Rukh Khan, Bollywood’s most loved celeb has the highest fan following on social media, think again. Interestingly, SRK is one of the most active celebs on social media but there is someone who has gone way beyond the King Khan. It is none other than the ‘King of comedy’, Kapil Sharma.

Kapil Sharma has 9.3 million likes on his Facebook account whereas SRK has 8.3 million on his. Kapil Sharma became a rage thanks to his show, ‘Comedy Nights With Kapil’. This show has caught on like a bug and while we have seen all A-lister celebrities appearing on the show, Kapil himself has now become one. Soon to be seen in a Yashraj movie called ‘Bank Chor‘, Kapil is surely on cloud nine.

Well, the journey from small screen to silver screen is reminding us of someone. Looks like, Kapil too is going the SRK way!
