Not everyone gets a chance to work with a legend like him,” Katrina states, adding, “But like I said, my dates were allotted to each project depending on the requirements. Beyond that, I don’t decide anything. That’s something that producers and other people involved with a movie decide.”

Khloe is reportedly not allowed to change her hair color to red or blonde if she wants because filming is going to be taking place, states RadarOnline.com. And, if Khloe were to have a different look, the season would be dated by it when it goes to reruns.When Khloe went red, she quickly went back and it was rumored that she did so because filming for the reality show was starting up again.

And it seems the show has a legal right to stop her because the contract is so strict and wants to make sure the sisters are portrayed similarly because of how they are as a brand.

‘I am definitely producing another film in May 2012. Yes, it will have me in the lead. And again, like ‘Challo Dilli’ where my co-star was Vinay Pathak, the pairing would be very unconventional. In case I can’t get before the camera I will produce another film without me in the cast in May and then do a film with me in the lead from August,’ she said.Lara, who tied the knot with tennis player Mahesh Bhupati this year, says this is a crucial time for the couple.’Mahesh has the Olympics. I’ve motherhood to look forward to. So we’ve other important commitments. But I most certainly plan to remain an actress and a producer. It’s something that I learnt from Shah Rukh Khan during ‘Don 2′.’He told me he was happy to see actresses turning producers and advised me to continue with my career,’ said the former beauty queen.For now, the 33-year-old is all charged up for motherhood.’It’s by far the most important role of my life. But there are other roles too. Those cannot be marginalized. I don’t do anything half-heartedly. I never became an actress to enhance my bank balance. The zeroes in my cheques never mattered. All the work that I’ve done so far as an actress is what I really believed in.’After debuting with ‘Andaaz’ in 2003, she did films like ‘No Entry’, ‘Jhoom Barabar Jhoom’, ‘Partner’ and ‘Housefull’.She also featured in ‘Don 2′ and said: ‘It’s a small role.

I’ve been my normal self during pregnancy. I want other women, who get nervous and anxious, to experience the same comfort level and to not feel awkward about their weight or baby bump. Have I been conducting myself with dignity and grace? I don’t claim any exclusivity on the condition that I am in. I just feel motherhood should be a happy stress-free period for all women,’ she said.Asked whether she wants a boy or a girl, she said: ‘Mahesh and I have no preferences. We’re just happy we’ll be parents.’

”Sherlock Holmes – A Game of Shadows” predictable, but witty and intelligent

Indo Asian News Service — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 17:44:27 +0000

Film: Sherlock Holmes – A Game of Shadows; Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Jared Harris; Director: Guy Ritchie; Rating:

Till the 1960s, wit in American and British cinema was not an exception but a rule. Helmed by good writers who were well read and exposed to theatre, the dialogues as well as scene conceptualization were exemplary. Today, while the revolution in film cameras, techniques and editing allows one to be visually witty, when it comes to writing, the quality has gone downhill.Sherlock Holmes 2′, a film whose writing wit matches its filmmaking quirkiness, comes as a wily reminder of the times gone by.Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr) has been tracking the movements of Professor Moriarty (Jared Harris) and suspects something big. Meanwhile, Dr. Watson (Jude Law) is about to get married and Holmes decides to leave him out. But when Moriarty suggests otherwise, Holmes ends up crashing into Watson’s honeymoon. But catching Moriarty would be harder than the two imagined for he is the ‘Napoleon’ of crime and matches Holmes move by move.In terms of the original stories of Sherlock Homes by Arthur Conan Doyle, this one resembles ‘The Final Solution’ where Doyle, tired of writing the Holmes series, wanted to kill him off. The film, however, takes merely its gist to create one that has less to do with the actual story and its time, than it has to ours.Obviously, considering that Moriarty is often considered one of the greatest villains in literature, his plans had to be hideously sinister.Writers Michele and Kieran Mulroney manage to wriggle out of the throats of that era, a story that is believable in its setting despite its grandiose, though cliched theme of saving the world.What we thus have is the perfect marriage between good writing and filmmaking. A kind of film which the masters of the past, had they been exposed to modern cinematic techniques and quick editing, would have made.The blending of history and fiction is near perfect. Moriarty’s evil plan is to plunge the world into a World War. And when Holmes prevents it, Moriarty reminds him that he has only delayed the inevitable since greedy countries of Europe are sitting at each others throat, ready to slit it.Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law make the perfect deductive pair as they match wits with a master criminal. However, the major drawback of the story is in the character of Moriarty. Though his scheme is sinister enough, it has been done to death so many times in cinema, that despite its generous peppering of accurate historical details, it seems cliched. Secondly, pandering perhaps to popular demand, more time is spend on Holmes and Watson, than on Moriarty. His cynicism and terror, does not really translate on screen. Also, the film relies on typical commercial formula of beginning it with good action, peppering enough dosage of the same throughout and ending it with a bang. Though the action sequences are craftily done and the end where Holmes and Moriarty literally play a game of chess not on the board, but by dictating moves verbally, is masterly.Though often, the wit of the film gets overbearing with almost every second line being a punch-line, Guy Ritchie manages an entertaining fare, a good cinematic way to end your year. Despite it being predictable for the intelligent and spectacular for the ones less so.

Vidya Balan’s ‘The Dirty Picture’ Banned In Qatar

FH Stuff ! — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 16:32:18 +0000

Vidya Balan’s ‘The Dirty Picture’ has been banned in Qatar, weeks after it was allowed for release in Pakistan and Abu Dhabi, says a media report.
The film makers are upset and fail to understand what the authorities found objectionable in the film.
“Our distributors applied for a censorship certificate in Qatar and they received a notice saying that the movie can’t be released there. The film is currently being screened in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and other Middle East countries, but it will not go to Qatar,“ says Tanuj Garg, CEO Balaji Motion Pictures.“The film was supposed to release there either this week or the next, but we were informed that it has been deemed unsuitable for theatrical exhibition.”, he said.There were some hitches in releasing the film in Pakistan as well but it was all sorted out when the makers appealed their Censor Board’s decision.“Even a conservative country like Pakistan released the film after initially rejecting it.Qatar is the only place where the film has been banned,“ reveals Garg.
When asked if any particular reason was given for their stern decision, Garg says, “We received a notice that was in Arabic. We obviously don’t understand the language.Logically, we guessed that the film might have been too bold or the content too controversial for them.“
Directed by Milan Luthria, The Dirty Picture released in India on December 2 and is reportedly inspired by the life and times of southern sire Silk Smitha, a role played by actor Vidya.However, the ban hasn’t affected the film’s business much.“Qatar is not a huge market. It’s not about the incremental revenue, but it’s very disheartening and unfortunate that we couldn’t release the film there,“ says Garg.Director Milan says, “Lust is part of our lives. We may deny it on the screen, but can we deny it in our minds? Why not accept it and celebrate it and enjoy it.”

Bollywood No Match To Hollywood In Terms Of Technology : Neil

FH Stuff ! — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 16:28:41 +0000

Actor Neil Nitin Mukesh, who will be next seen in action-flick ‘Players’ feels Bollywood is way behind Hollywood in terms of technology and execution.“We constantly talk about Hollywood and Bollywood, but I feel we are nowhere close to them what so ever whether it is in terms of technology or processing or story line or execution or anything. Their ‘Superman’ and all came 30 years back and we hardly made a film like ‘Krrish’ that has worked for us,” Neil told PTI in an interview.“So we are way way behind them…that is because there audience have accepted futuristic films… because movies are meant to be made to believe, they are meant to be larger than life. Unfortunately it is not like that our films are bad but we are not catering and guiding to our audiences,” he said.“Today almost for every film a critic writes leave your brains behind and enjoy the film…why would one leave their brains behind ? One must go there and see an intelligent film. So make an intelligent film and feed your audience with that. If we keep offering them certain amount or certain quality of films they will get used to that and expect that only.”

“If you see those (Hollywood) films doing well then it because there imagination and execution is that powerful. The last horror made in Bollywood that I loved was ‘Haunted’. I feel we can go to next level soon,” he said.‘Players’, directed by Abbas-Mustan is the official remake of hit Hollywood crime-thriller ‘The Italian Job’.Neil is all praise for the execution by the director duo of the film, where he essays the role of Spider, a computer hacker.“I play a computer hacker…he is a computer whiz. He is intelligent. His mind is very strong and whichever thing he wants to hack or in whatever space he needs to get into as far as gizmo zone is concerned he knows his ways out. He becomes an integral part of the hyped robbery and its impossible to execute this robbery without him,” Neil said.“The one thing that I admire about Abbas-Mustan is that from ‘Khiladi’ to ‘Players’ they have always progressed with time.‘Players’ is slightly advanced in its time. Its a very well shot film. Their thinking is not old-school, they are very stylish, he said.The film, relasing on January 6 also stars Abhishek Bachchan, Bobby Deol, Sonam Kapoor, Bipasha Basu, Omi Vaidya and Sikander Kher in pivotal roles.
