Emraan Hashmi and Prachi Desai To Work Together Again

Prachi Desai and Emraan Hashmi will be seen together once again after the success of Once Upon A Time In Mumbai (OUATIM). This time round, they will work in Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt's Informer.

Prachi, who has track record of not kissing in her movies has to raise her sex appeal quite high for this movie as per the insiders. She will go for a complete makeover for the role.

Emraan and Prachi were liked together in OUATIM and it is obvious the two enjoy their comfort zone. They have shared intimate scenes in it also. However, Prachi is known for including a no kiss clause in her contracts in the past also and she might just continue with her principle even now.

She had this clause incorporated in OATIM and also refused to kiss John Abraham in Shrishti Arya's next movie.

Well, I actually like Prachi quite a lot. She is quite pretty to look at and the fact that she does not put herself in compromising, dirty scenes just to get a little limelight is neat. She also remains rather content with very few projects. She has done very few movies but all of them are decent. These are rare qualities in actresses since all of them are greedy for success and ready to do anything to get attention. I hope Prachi will continue to follow her principles in the future also.

Meera Defamed Mahesh Bhatt To Get Publicity

I am wondering why do Pakistani actresses go to Bollywood so often only to make us feel bad back home. Anyhow, the latest story of Meera is quite embarrassing.

We all know that it was Mahesh Bhatt who gave Meera her big break in Hindi cinema with his film 'Nazar' and then she worked in one other movie called 'Kasak'. Since then she has been dying to work in Bollywood but perhaps she didn't get no good offers.

It is heard she is making a comeback in India but before that she has received lots of hard work to gain publicity. Meera decided to accuse Mahesh Bhatt, her self-confessed mentor. Her recent statements were shocking when she blamed Mahesh Bhatt for her departure to Pakistan. She said that it was not her decision to not work in Hindi films but Mahesh asked her to leave India. He did not like her being famous and interacting with other directors. In fact, she alleged that Mahesh Bhatt was possessive and physically abusive and it was him who made her leave Bollywood.

Mahesh Bhatt has an absolutely different story to tell where he openly calls her mad. This is what the filmmaker tweeted about Meera, 'Narcissistic Personality Disorder is the possible ailment Meera could be suffering from. Such people have a larger than life persona.'

His brother, Mukesh Bhatt defended Mahesh by saying that when he introduced Meera in Nazar, he didn't really know that they were entering into unknown territories with a mad woman.He went on to call her a 'nut case' and that she is only trying to defame Mahesh Bhatt and this is her way to promote her upcoming film.

Anyhow, Meera has taken back all these accusations saying she was just joking. This is perhaps the worst and most silly response she could have given. I don't know why was she demeaning Veena Malik when she herself is playing even lower stunts. Even Ashmit Patel considered her a mad woman who wanted her to stop chasing him.Wow, how uncool is this story. How insulting is that the filmmakers are calling her a psycho so openly. Meera, I always knew such a day will come soon.

Bipasha Is Out - Yana Is In Murder 2 Now

Yana Gupta

Bipasha Basu

Well finally we are hearing some interesting news. Remember, when we last heard that Bipasha was asked by the Bhatt brothers to do an item song in Murder 2? Now there is some twist in the entire story.

If we look back, Bipasha Basu got her fame with movies like Jism and Raaz in which Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt gave her the much needed break. Anyhow, the real story is that the Bhatts first approached her to do Murder 2 but she refused to do the role because the story didn't revolve around her character. So, they decided to take Jacqueline Fernandez as a replacement.

Then, the Bhatt brothers offered Bipasha an item song in Murder 2 but instead of showing her gratitude to these guys, the actress asked for a very high compensation and started suggesting her choice of choreographers to them. According to insiders, this attitude of Bipasha Basu has really upset the Bhatt brothers.

Everybody in the industry knows that Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt are very price conscious because they want to make the best thing at a minimal cost.

Since, they were not going to take any of Bipasha's tantrums they opted to have Yana Gupta as the item girl in Murder 2. As it is, Yana has won the hearts of dance lovers through her performances in Jhalak Dikhla Jaa.

I guess this is a major negative for Bipasha Basu since she is hardly a renowned actress when it comes to ACTING. She barely knows how to dance as well. I feel the Bhatts' were doing her favor by all means when they were offering her both the role and then later the item song.

Anyhow, all this landed Yana Gupta in a favorable situation who would be more than happy to perform an item song for a Bhatt movie. Well, if it has to be an item song at the end of the day, the girl should at least know how to dance. So great choice Bhatt people...Yana Gupta as an item girl is much better any given day!

Bipasha Might Do An Item Song In Murder 2

Bipasha Basu was a bit unlucky to lose out on the item song Dum Maaro Dum to Deepika Padukone in her own movie. However, there are very strong rumors around the industry that she will most probably do an item song in Murder 2.

Her spokesperson said that she would love to do an item song for Murder 2 as she loves to work with the Bhatts. However, it all depends on the availability of dates. If she will have the dates then she would definitely do the song for Murder 2.

For now this is the only update, we will have to wait to hear the confirmed news.

I don't really see Bipasha as such a great dancer anyway. Remember that song "Tu sirf mera mehboob mai teri mehbooba"??? God that was some terrible dancing she did there. In fact, even after all these years I have not seen her do well as a dancer. Even that song from Omkara "Beedi", she hardly did a few replica steps of moving her hips and butt throughout the song. The real energy was put by Vivek and the other men in the song.

Anyway, for Bipasha's fans this would be a good news so they will have to wait for the final word on this one.

Mahesh Bhatt Remains Fearless

Mahesh Bhatt

Imran Zahid

Muntazer al Zayedi - the journalist who threw shoes at President Bush

Mahesh Bhatt is one of the bolder Indian filmmakers who has always been ahead of his times. I may not like all of his movies but I like the fact that he does not have a closed mind. He has also shown a lot of love and respect for Pakistan (unlike his son) and he seems to be passionate about the subjects he cover.

It has been said that this time round, Mahesh wants to make a movie on the civil war in Iraq and wants to meet the Iraqi journalist, Muntazer al Zayedi who threw a shoe on the great president Bush.

Mahesh wants to take his director, Arvind Gaur and the actor, Imran Zahid to the war-torn Iraq to meet Muntazer. He wants to make a documentary before shooting for the film. People are telling him that it is rather unsafe to go to Iraq. In fact, Muntazer has warned Bhatt that although he is welcome but the country is very unsafe. He wouldn't advise these guys to come there. Instead, he suggested that they should wait for him to come to India to discuss the entire matter.

Mahesh Bhatt is however firm in his beliefs. He said that the actor and director won't be able to do justice till they have the real taste of the blood soaked land. They must feel what it is like with their own eyes. He said that people warned him that Pakistan, Kashmir,Nagaland and Bastar are unsafe places too but he did go to these places as well.

They don't have the visas issued as yet but Mahesh Bhatt has put in a request at the highest level in the concerned Ministry. They will leave for Iraq as soon as the visas are issued.

Some critics feel he is going too far by risking the lives of his team members for the sake of art. Well, I guess till the world is going to stay, there will always be a few people like Mahesh Bhatt who will break the norms and do what they believe in and critics won't approve of them. I am impressed with his passion and his fearless conviction to feel and see the truth.

Student Of The Year - First Look

Karan Johar revealed on twitter the first look of the upcoming movie "Student Of The Year". Karan Johar's newest project 'Student Of The Year' introduces Mahesh Bhatt's daughter Alia, Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan. It is probably a modern day love triangle.

Rahul Bhatt Is Dating Anchal Kumar

Rahul Bhatt and Anchal Kumar both met in Bigg Boss Season 4 where they were both house mates. From the beginning they were quite close and looked like good friends. Unlike Veena and Ashmit made up fling, this duo seemed to be more serious about their friendship.

They were both evicted quite early. First Rahul was evicted and then Anchal was evicted the following week. Rahul is a fitness trainer and body builder while Anchal is a model. Rahul prefers to stay quiet and stays away from media because he was the friend of David Headley, who was involved in 2008 Mumbai attacks.

Now, news is that Rahul Bhatt and Anchal Kumar are dating each other. Although Rahul is openly saying that is going out with Anchal for the last one month and that he is looking for a long term relationship. Anchal, on the otherhand, is passing diplomatic comments that they are good friends only.

This is what Rahul says:

"Yes, Aanchal and I are seeing each other. We've been dating for a month now. It takes me a long time to open up with people. I've very few friends and after what I've gone through (the Headley episode) I'm even more wary of new contacts," said Rahul, son of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt.

Rahul hit it off with Aanchal from day one on 'Bigg Boss 4'. "She is honest and trustworthy. A lovely person. I'm looking at a long-term relationship," he said.

While this is what Anchal says:

"Rahul is a good friend. I met (him) in the 'Bigg Boss' house. The show helped me in terms of recognition with the masses. People got to know me. The best thing was the respect I won for my conduct on the show. I walked out with my head held high," she said.
