Talaash not a universal film: Aamir Khan
December 4, 2012 | Sneha_Dabangg2 11
Bollywood star Aamir Khan knows his latest release Talaash does not cater to a universal audience, but he is glad with the response it has received.
“Talaash is not a universal film. There is a supernatural element in this film and it was a risky film to make. Around 80 to 90 per cent of the audience liked the film,” Aamir told reporters here Tuesday.
He says his next release Dhoom 3 is a universal project.
“Even kids will like that film. But Talaash has got a different audience,” said Aamir.

Kunal M Shah (MID-DAY; December 4, 2012)
Akshay Kumar is known for his various stunt acts. For the promotion of his upcoming film Khiladi 786 he is taking it further — the star drove a vehicle with his legs! The star who was in Bathinda in Punjab recently had planned to make his entry on a bike. However at the last minute there was a change of plan. A car was brought instead of a bike. Says an onlooker, “He took everyone by surprise. He drove the car from the backstage to the open ground where the crowd was present using his legs.” Creative producer Rakesh Upadhyay says, “Yes, he did drive the car with his legs!”

Subhash Ghai is searching for his Kaanchi
December 4, 2012 | fenil_seta 2
After launching Manisha Koirala, Mahima Chaudhary and Isha Sharvani in Saudagar, Pardes and Kisna respectively, showman Subhash Ghai is all set to launch a new face in his next directorial venture, Kaanchi, that releases next year on Independence Day.
Ghai has gone online for the search of the new heroine and hopes to find that one lucky lady before the film go on floors in January. The director in a recent interview to a tabloid mentioned that the character of Kaanchi is a Pahadi, is in her early 20’s and is fair, rustic, stout, extrovert and has a fair complexion along with bright eyes. Any girl, possessing these characteristics, is recommended to send in their pictures and bio-data to the Mukta Arts’ casting team. Their email address is kaan…@gmail.com
Although Ghai and Mukta Arts’ respectability has taken a beating after delivering a spate of disasters in the recent times, the announcement of audition has created considerable excitement among the budding actors in the country. After all, Ghai’s heroines are portrayed beautifully. Besides, the selected candidate also gets to play the leading role and share screen space with Mithun Chakraborty and Rishi Kapoor, who are also part of the film. Hence, no wonder that Mukta Arts is getting hundreds of audition mails every single day.
Watch this space to find out who’ll be the lucky girl.
Bollywood’s first Zombie film to hit screens in Feb 2013; generates curiosity
December 4, 2012 | fenil_seta
Rise Of The Zombie, the first film in Hindi cinema on zombies, is all set to release all over next year in February and is slowly and gradually creating buzz. The director of the film, Luke Kenny (popular for his role of Rob in ‘Rock On!!’), along with actor Ashwin Mushran, organized a ‘Zombie-Walk’ in Bandra (Mumbai) few days back, thus kick-starting the promotions of the film in a unique way.
Luke Kenny, during the launch of the film in January, had expressed surprise as to why the zombie genre wasn’t explored by any filmmaker. Luke, who has been a fan of zombie cinema, thus took up the challenge along with co-director Devaki Singh and attempted to make, what he claims, the first zombie origin film. Luke is also a part of the principal cast of the film besides Kirti Kulhari (of Shaitan fame), Ashwin Mushran and Benjamin Gilani. Though unconventional, the film boasts of an item song – the remix of the iconic ‘Aao Na’ (Nazia Hussain). The remix, like the original, is done by music composer Biddu while it’s sung by Aditi Singh Sharma.
Though two more zombie Hindi films are still in the pipeline, Rise Of The Zombie releases first and thus has the advantage of being labeled as the ‘first zombie film of Bollywood’. Although the film is made on shoestring budget, the promotion is expected to be eyeball-grabbing. Also thanks to the presence of zombies and also being the first to do so in Bollywood, the film can definitely have an advantage when it hits theatres in February 2013. Are you ready for some chills and thrills?
Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs: first-look image
December 4, 2012 | ank_16n
jOBS, the typographically irregular biopic that stars Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs has unveiled a first image (via Variety).
If there was ever any doubt (and c’mon, there wasn’t), the first official shot proves that Kutcher is a spot-on match for the young Jobs, looks-wise.
What’s less certain is whether Kutcher will have the dramatic chops to carry a performance that’ll be so closely scrutinised, but if he does pull it off, it’ll be a surefire gamechanger for him.
Talaash Has Decent Monday-BOI
December 4, 2012 | ank_16n 7Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Talaash had decent collections of around 6.25 crore nett on Monday. Its the normal Monday, the film has not held up really well but nor has it seen a big drop.
The total after four days is 50 crore nett plus. The film will now depend on how well the multiplexes hold up over the weekdays and single screens will show big drops and Khiladi 786 will dominate single screens from Friday onwards.
The drops are around 50% in most circuits though Gujarat has seen a bigger drop and Mysore is also likely to be a bigger drop due to the huge start on day one.

Is Salman Khan The Only Khan Now As Even Aamir Khan Will Not Have A Big Grosser With Talaash?

Q. Rowdy Rathore you claimed will be huge and now Khildai 786 you say may not even do 100 crore, why such difference as both films are same types? A. The excitement at the exhibition level does not look the same but that does not mean it can’t do big business. Just the opening numbers may not be that big. See Khiladi 786 will not get a bad opening but when some films get pumped to do certain figures which are very unlikley that actually good opening becomes a disappointment as general opinion becomes its low. |

Jugglery- We can Ask Aamir what it is …
December 4, 2012 | Aloof 4Playing with words is a rather common art these days. If you are able to fake emotions, sincerity and feelings then you can go a notch higher on the ladder of success. You need to keep on reinforcing the fact that you are honest so much so that others appear dishonest. We can buy talent but we cannot buy sincerity or so we thought. If sincerity is up for grabs in a three hours time window, who wouldn’t want to buy it.
You can love someone when you are in awe of him. You can love someone when he is out of your reach. You can love someone just because he is what you cannot be. But probably there is nothing better than loving someone when you know he loves you back. Love may appear in the simple form of predictable honesty.
There is a fake glitter to our cinema stars but we love them for one reason or another. But if you are able to appreciate someone who you feel is totally fair with you it is just another feeling.
They call it credibility-the ability to invoke audiences’ trust again and again. Building a relationship over the years when you can blindly trust the star to be honest with you.

Q. Which film actually had a better opening day Jab Tak Hai Jaan or Talaash?
A. Both were in same range.
R Jayarajan
Q. Is Salman Khan the only Khan now as even Aamir Khan will not have a big grosser with Talaash?
A. It still remains to be seen where Talaash goes. They are all still Khans but right now you can say Salman Khan is the biggest by a fair margin. Also if Talaash does not gross big its more to do with the genre, director, writers, music etc and film in general, not Aamir Khan because whatever it does will be because of him.
S Mirza
Q. Will Dabangg 2 gross more than Dabangg?
A. It will be a huge shock if it does not.
