Ravi’s rooling the roost now…
What gruels the row?
Well is it the city of Varanasi or is it the star crew with Rani and Konkona or is it just the media that gruels the row? Apparently while the shooting of the next Yash Raj banner film was proceeding towards pack up, media persons were manhandled by the private security guards escorting actors Rani Mukherjee and Kokona Sen Sharma.
Varanasi has been in news of a similar fashion when the film ‘Water’ was in progress. And stars… well it isn’t actually necessary to explain how stars become a reason for a fight. But I guess in this issue it is the media that is to be blamed for. As usual the said fourth estate of our democracy was being too intrusive in the stars personal space. Well now that has to pay off.
Saif Ali Khan stirs trouble in New York
Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan invited trouble in New York city by arguing and squabbling with his co-star Rani Mukherjee and also vexing the owner of Madame X lounge.
Saif is currently shooting for his forthcoming film Tara Rum Pum with Rani Mukherjee in New York. Apparently, Saifu threw his weight around at the posh bar after downing shots of Tequila.
Rumours are also ripe that Saif and Rani have asked their producer for rooms at separate hotels, so that they don’t have to see each other off the set.
“He acted like he owns this joint,” the owner of the lounge was quoted by the New York
Post.
We think after the success of Parineeta and Omkara, success has gone to Saif’s head. If Saif continues with such a childish and irresponsible behavior, he may well be out of the good books of his producers and co-stars very soon.
Behave yourself Saifu, otherwise, you will soon lose your hard earned success and your long-cherished dream of being counted in the same league as the other three Khans will be shattered.
Preity Zinta’s extra ‘curves’
Oki guys I’m sure all of you loved watching Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna and came out smiling despite so much crying in the over 3 hrs flick (man! I actually had an argument with my girlfriend about the length of the flick 
)… I actually checked it out once again to observe it all the more and surely did hit upon a couple of things which I’m sure you intelligent people would’ve noticed in the first time itself…
One of them being Priety’s flab … Gosh! She was looking so damn FAT – especially in the ‘rock n roll’ song! While the father-son duo of Amitabh and Abhishekh Bacchan literally rocked and rolled in the racy number (and Rani sulked a lil too much ), apni Preity was flaunting a whole lot of extra ‘curves’ in that golden attire of hers… No wonder even SRK wasn’t particularly happy with her in the movie 
… Wonder what his son Aryan might say about his favorite “Aunty” on this!!!
Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna – we sum it up for you!
So, it’s a big film… Big budget, a loong looong time to be made, an even longer star cast and above all – A HUGE star back up! You got that right people, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna hit theatres this 11th and has driven straight into our hearts right from the first show… First things first, the expectations that everyone has while buying a ticket to a Dharma production – especially when it’s directed by the maestro himself!!!
Karan Johar has given two hits back to back as a director and everyone in the industry would have his/her eyes on this wiz kid to churn out another blockbuster and complete his hat-trick. And at such a situation, what does Johar jr. do? He goes hysterical and takes a big risk at such a crucial point of his career. Instead of the tried and tested united family or puppy love, which with the treatment of Karan Johar gives a guarantee of a super hit, he narrates a tale on infidelity, hatred and broken relationships!!!
What does he churn out anyways? A blockbuster again, or a first box office dud? Well that’s for time to tell, but a few things are confirmed
• Karan Johar is one of the best narrators in the industry today.
• ShahRukh Khan is not called King Khan for nothing.
• Hugh Heffner, watch out for Amitabh Bacchan’s kinky one liners to beat yours.
• Abhishekh Bacchan can act (especially with daddy around 
)
• Rani Mukherjee acts and looks better than Priety Zinta any day!
• Above all — Risks (calculated ones) do PAY OFF!!!Kudos to the young mind of the director for trusting his instinct and making a wonder of a film…
Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna – Movie Plot
After ‘kal Ho Na Ho’ and ‘Kaal’, Karan Johar returns with another winner in Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna.
With so much hype happening around the film, the audience’s expectations are high from the year’s biggest film that has a mammoth starcast – Amitabh Bachchan, ShahRukh Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Rani Mukerjee, Preity Zinta, Arjun Rampal and Kirron Kher.
The music has been composed by shanker Ehsaan Loy and the lyrics are written by Javed Akhtar. We hope their pairing rocks the charts for several days.
‘Kabhi Alvida…’ centers on the budding romance between Dev (Shahrukh) and Maya(Rani), who are both married to different people , but stuck up in unhappy marriages. Shahrukh is married to Preity Zinta, whereas Rani is married to Abhishek . But their marriages are loveless and unsuccessful( or so,as we are made to believe). SRK plays a father to a 7-year old ( a la kuch kuch hota hai) . Shah Rukh is always angry because he’s got a perpetual limp and he can’t play football and his wife (Preity Zinta) is more successful than him.
The reasons behind Rani’s drift are also somewhat weak, like hubby Abhishek demands something more from her , in bed and in day to day life.
And the two decide to play marriage-counsellors to eachother. They discuss books and techniques to save their marriage , but the two end up having an extra-marital affair themselves. And this results in collision of lives and emotions, affecting everyone involved and changing their lives forever.
Amitabh Bachchan’s character is quite ‘rangeela’ and it has sexual undertones. But the father-son chemistry, between Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek is awesome.
And unlike Karan Johar’s earlier movies, it’s not the audience that sheds tears this time , it is the actors themselves who cry and cry …..
But the film has some good moments too, that are touching , and the film is beautifully shot in the picturesque New York.
The movie is quite long (around 3 hours and 15 mins) and may not hold the audience’s attention for that long .
It remains to be seen whether Karan Johar’s ‘hatke’ movie impresses the orthodox Indian audience, since his earlier movies were family entertainers, Karan has taken a big risk this time by dealing with the subject of infidelity.
The movie is running full houses everywhere due to its huge starcast and Karan Johar label. We hope Karan’s new formula is accepted , otherwise the audience might start saying ALVIDA to him …..
