Antara Mali

Antara Mali

Antara Mali, the glamorous actress of the movies like Company, Road, Naach and Mast has shaved off her head and gone bald for her upcoming movie, And Once Again. Antara had done her last movie 5 years back, it was also the movie she directed. But Mr Ya Miss was a flop and Anatara has not been seen since.

In an interview with IANS she said that this is not her comeback movie. Here are the excerpts from the interview. She said "Shaving your head is not an easy thing to do. I did suffer later, but I still have no regrets, When Amolda told me that I would have to shave my head for the role in the film, my initial reaction was just excitement because these are opportunities that don’t come to you too often and even if they come they come at a wrong time. For instance, If I was deep in my career, I wouldn’t have been able to do something like this because you are committed to other films so you can’t shave off your head, but it came to me when I had no commitments in my life. I could just do whatever I wanted. So I was feeling so free"

Antara had made her debut in Bollywood with Prem Katha. Her last flick was Mr Ya Miss, here she talks about the gap since then "I retired after ‘Mr Yaa Miss’. I think that at that point, I’d hit a dead end in terms of what I wanted to do. I wasn’t very sure and then I thought that I didn’t feel like working. All of us go through that phase, I’m still not ready to come back and ‘And Once Again’ is just a one-off film that I’m doing. It’s not my comeback film"

The upcoming flick also stars Rajat Kapoor and Rituparna Sengupta. The English film is directed by Palekar. Talking about her character, she said "It’s a very quiet performance and unusual because of the nature of the role. I don’t think I would have been able to do this a few years back. There has been a certain growth as a person in me and I think whatever I have felt and experienced sort of just evolved in this character"

When asked how she prepared for the role, she said "I did exactly what Amolda told me. That’s the best part of working with someone like him. When you are working with him, you just give yourself up, you do whatever he says. Also, I interacted with monks when I was in Sikkim. I did some amount of research about how they talk, the way they look and all that, but more than all that when you are playing someone, you bring something from your own life and inject that into the character to make it real. It just works out that way"

Salman Khan turns into an assist

Posted: 31 Jul 2010 02:41 AM PDT

Salman Khan, Sonakshi SinhaAre you in trouble? Is your career not working out? Are your relationships in a mess? Does life look meaningless and you don’t know what to do? You’ve been to all the possible astrologers, but can’t seem to find the right stars to open your luck? Well, forget all of those and approach just one star, who’s the brightest amongst them all, and it is none other than Salman Khan!

Yes you heard it right. No no, he’s not abandoned his films and canvases to become a psychic healer, but then with the fall of events, it just appears that he’s the new ‘agony aunt’ in town. Or should we say ‘uncle.’ But then, not even our 16 year old girls would want to call him that. So let us just stick to ‘agony aunt’ as the jargon here.

Salman’s generosity and helping nature is known to almost everyone, whether the person knows him or not. But of late, it seems that he’s started to be some kind of a universal shoulder for people to cry on. We see a fat little Zarine Khan tagging along with him at most of the social dos, slowly reducing the weight with each successive occasion. Rumours are that it is Salman who’s ‘guiding’ her into gaining a better health and losing all the extra unwanted pounds.

Same with the shotgun’s starry-eyed daughter Sonakshi Sinha, who just seems to be way mesmerized by the dude and his antics. Salman is also helping Sonakshi lose weight and keep fit we hear, by making her wake up early, walk, do a lot of exercises and maintain a salad diet.

Also, Salman has been known to be quite instrumental in Asin’s career. First she bagged the film London Dreams with him. Now, ever since she has been banned by the South Indian film fraternity for her Sri Lanka visit during the IIFA (and the heartbreak after Dhoni’s marriage); she’s found her one and only shoulder to cry upon, who can at least try and keep her Bollywood career afloat and no prizes for guessing that it is the muscular hunk.

The latest in news is his ex-flame Sangeeta Bijlani, crying about her troubled marriage and taking suggestions from apna Sallu for a better way to deal with things. Talk about a big big heart, and Salman would be an unparalleled winner.

Psst: Sallu… apna Vivek is also in really troubled waters… and he’s been asking for forgiveness from thy highness since eternity now. How about thoda rehem on this young lad as well?

After seeing the video do share your thoughts about it in the comments section.

Here is the official story of the film"That Girl in Yellow Boots is a thriller tracing Ruth's (Kalki Koechlin) search for her father – a man she hardly knew but cannot forget.

Desperation drives her to work without a permit, at a massage parlour. Torn between several schisms, Mumbai becomes the alien but yet strangely familiar backdrop for Ruth's quest. She struggles to find her independence and space even as she is sucked deeper into the labyrinthine politics of the city's underbelly.

A city that feeds on her misery, a love that eludes her and above all, a devastating truth that she must encounter. And everyone wants a piece of her."

Posted: 31 Jul 2010 02:19 AM PDT

Once Upon A Time in MumbaiIt seems that Gujarat had been long awaiting the release of neighbor Mumbai based movie "ONCE UPON A TIME IN MUMBAI".

The movie scored an opening of 75% in Gujarat, higher than the opening in any other part of the country. ONCE UPON A TIME IN MUMBAI has done respectably well all over the country.

Being their own city story, Mumbai has welcomed the movie with arms open. The western states (Mumbai, Gujarat and Nasik) have given more positive response than other small cities. The movie is taking time to attract audience in smaller cities.

Milan Luthria’s ONCE UPON A TIME IN MUMBAI ventures into the world of the Underworld striving before 1994. The movie stars Emraan Hashmi and Ajay Devgn in lead characters. Kangana Ranaut and Prachi Desai have supporting roles to play.

The movie has already faced a lot of complications starting from Haji Mastan’s daughter, Shamshad Supariwala, filing complaints against producers Ekta Kapoor and Sunil Shetty gor depicting her father’s life in the movie (which I must say is not completely untrue!).

But lets wish the movie cheers as it has already gone through a lot and has good enough reasons to score a hit at the Boxoffice.

Haji Mastan’s wife : Kangana Ranaut

Haji Mastan

Haji Mastan

MUMBAI : The Mumbai underworld don, Haji Mastan, whose name has been repeated time and again in the courts recently reasoning the petitions against Milan Luthria’s movie ‘Once Upon a Time In Mumbai’, has come in the limelight again. Haji Mastan’s death has always been a mystery to every citizen of our country.

‘Once Upon a Time In Mumbai’ depicts underworld activities on Mumbai before 1994. The producer Ekta Kapoor and Sunil Shetty have already been sued against using Mastan’s character in the movie by his daughter Samshad Supariwala. Samshad demanded that the movie be edited and objectionable scenes be removed.

She believed her father was a respectable man who was involved in the politics of the country and has always been a patriot. Mastan’s adopted son, Suleman, also has filed a case against the movie beacause of similar reasons which resulted in the delay of its release.

Though, now, the Cast denies the characters of the movie are anywhere related to Mastan, Ajay Devgn was heard telling in Press Conferences earlier that he is playing Mastan and Kangana too said that she was playing Mastan’s wife.

TRS Sweeps Andhra By Elections; Wins 11 Of 12 Seats

Posted: 30 Jul 2010 11:23 PM PDT

TRS

TRS

The TRS has swept the by-elections held in the Telangana region in AP. The 12 assembly constituencies that were up for contest were picked up largely by TRS, which got the 11 constituencies.

Meanwhile the lone constituency of Nizamabad was retained by BJP. The margin of victories was high enough to render it a no contest. Almost all the seats were won by a margin of atleast 40,000 votes.

Some of the winning candidates are E Rajendra from Huzurabad, K Vidyasagar from Koreatla, KT Rama Rao from Sircilla, E Ravinder from Yellareddy and D Vinay from Warrangal.

It will be remembered that the elections were necessitated as the sitting MLAs had quit their jobs to support the formation of a separate Telengana state. The 11th TRS candidate which won the seat was actually a TDP candidate at the time of quitting and later joined TRS, only to prove victorious again.
