Ishaan Khatter was interacting with media on breezy Saturday night at seashore near Bandra-Worli sea link where he launched ‘Chote Motor Chala’ song from his film along with Malavika Mohanan and Majidi Majidi.
When asked Ishaan how does it feel to make Bollywood debut with a film which looks so real and working with acclaimed Iranian director like Majid Majidi, Ishaan said, “It feels beyond the clouds’”.

‘Chote Motor Chala’ songs looks fun and Ishaan has done some mind-blowing steps while performing this song in the film so when asked Ishaan how much fun he had while shooting for it, he said, “This song in our film is for very less time but we tried to come up with full version of this song to entertain the audience. We have made a special video of it which we have combined with film’s footage. As far as, dancing in this song is concerned, I was very eager to dance on this song but Majidi sir had to control my emotions while we were shooting for this song.”

When asked Ishaan why his team chose seashore to launch song of their film, he said, “We chose this location to launch this song because we have shot our film at this place. It is one of our favorite location in Mumbai. The kind of natural beauty  Worli Koliwada has that you will not able to see anywhere else that’s why we decided to launch our song among our own people.”

When asked Malavika how does it feel to be part Majid Majidi’s film, she said, “It feels amazing and great. Sometimes, I still can’t believe that I have done a Majid Majidi film so it feels incredible”

‘Beyond the Clouds’ is Majid Majidi’s first Indian production so when asked Majidi why he chose India as a country to debut as a director apart from Iranian films and what was his search behind it, he said, “I have many memories with this location and I have shot one portion of this at this venue as well. I am grateful to people who have supported us throughout shooting of this film. People of India are very loving and kind and I think culturally also, I connected with them really well because we also share similar kind of culture back in Iran."

Rajkummar Rao says about Omerta

Actor #RajkummarRao who is busy promoting his upcoming flick #Omerta has said that makers of 'Omerta' are not trying to glorify heinous act of terrorists through the film.

rajkummar-rao-says-about-omerta
Rajkummar Rao interacted with media to promote ‘Omerta’ on Friday in Mumbai.

When asked Rao whether makers of this film trying to glorify terrorist activities, he said, “It is not the case with this film. We are not trying to glorify the heinous act done by these terrorists. In fact, I think this film will create awareness among people who don’t have much knowledge about this issue. Any filmmaker don’t make a film with the motive to hurt sentiments of people or to create a controversy through a film because there is thousand of people’s hard work and lot of money at stake to make a film so, no one will want to have controversy on a project which is made with lot of heart.”

When asked Rao what prompted him to play dark character of terrorist Omar Saeed Sheikh, he said, “As an actor, we get very fascinated with villains sometimes. If you see, Shah Rukh (Khan) sir has played grey or negative character in ‘Baazigar’  and ‘Darr’, Aamir (Khan) sir in ‘Earth’,  Sanjay Dutt in ‘Khalnayak’ and recently, Ranveeer Singh in ‘Padmaavat’. There is something edgy about these villains that we get attracted to as an artist. I don’t know if it’s about the power these characters has or the limitless approach that these characters have that we want to explore and it was same with me. I think I wanted to explore this villain inside me with film like ‘Omerta’ because I always played either grey characters or good boys and ‘Omerta’ gave me that opportunity.”

Talking about meaning of title and basic plot of the film, Rao said, “’Omerta’ means silence between the two people regarding certain thing and which they don’t share with anyone else so, in gangster term it is called ‘Omerta’ It’s a story of Omar Saeed Sheikh and many young people like him who gets brainwashed and be a part of terrorist activities. In last 15 years, if you see any big terrorist happening or attack which have taken place like 9/11 in America, Mumbai’s 26/11, Kandahar plane high jack, Kidnapping and Killing of American Journalist Daniel Pearl in all these incidents, Omar was part of that criminal conspiracy. It’s a thriller and a story of a world about which we don’t have much idea. It’s a fourth time I am collaborating with Hansal Mehta sir and whoever has seen it is saying that this is by far best film of Hansal Mehta sir.”

Salman Khan – Bail Hearing Started

Good News for #SalmanKhan Fans, the hearing on bail plea takes place in the Jodhpur sessions court today.

salman-khan-bail-hearing-started
The actor, who has been sentenced to five years in jail for killing two blackbucks, has spent two nights in the Jodhpur Central Jail. His bail plea was reserved for a day on Friday by Judge Ravindra Kumar Joshi, who has now been transferred to Sirohi.

The Defence lawyers have argued that the witness is unreliable as she lives two kilometers away from where the blackbucks were killed. They are claiming that it is not possible for anyone to reach the spot 2 km away just a moment after hearing the gunshots.

Prosecutors asserted in court that Salman should not be given the bail. They are arguing on the witness statement presenting it as a proof of why the actor should remain in jail.

The bail hearing for Salman Khan has begun. District & sessions court judge Ravindra Kumar Joshi is hearing the application.

The district and sessions court had on Friday heard the arguments on the suspension of sentence and bail application but had reserved its decision on Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's bail plea for today. The court had called for the records of the case from the trial court.

Salman's sister Alvira, and his bodyguard Shera have been allowed to go inside the court.

Abhinay Deo directorial Blackmail is a guide to practicality

#IrrfanKhan starrer dark comedy #Blackmail takes all the right turns in a routine filled life of bordem.

abhinay-deo-directorial-blackmail-is-guide-to-practicality
Dev (Irrfan) is seen late doodling in office after hours, before leaving he sends a text to his wife Reena (Kirti Kulhari). Day after day he sends the same message without a difference of a dot, 'Leaving now'. But his life changes the night he decides to take a advice from a friend (who can tell is a girl is virgin just by looking at her) and returns home early only to find his wife fooling around with another man.

Dev then thinks of ways to go on with the situation, either kill the wife or the lover, but ends up resorting to leaving the small apartment quietly, runs through streets and gives up within minutes, unlike stereotypical heroes. Instead of catching them red-handed he decides to blackmail Ranjit (Arunoday Singh), Reena's lover.

While the movie makes a good start it manages to stay afloat on the idea of realistic characters. Dev who is non-violent being after the harsh truth of his life becomes practical enough to save himself from the cops by twice using his friend as a human shield. The film ends with Dev getting away with the crime he influenced, committed and didn't commit.

The film brings forth every actor in a refreshing way and adds to the real tone of the film. The sloppy cinematography increases the film's relatability and music enhances the film's essence. 

Verdict: Plays out more than a life would but just enough to make you laugh along at the irony.

It was refreshing to do a film like Blackmail says Kirti Kulhari

Actress #KirtiKulhari who is busy promoting her upcoming film #Blackmail has said that it was refreshing for her to do a film like ‘Blackmail’.

it-was-refreshing-to-do-film-like-blackmail
Kirti Kulhari interacted with media to promote ‘Blackmail’ on Wednesday in Mumbai.

When asked Kirti what prompted her do ‘Blackmail’ she said, “I haven’t done a comedy in a while and it’s not that I am doing comedy in the film but it’s just interesting to come back to sense of comedy timing. It’s different.. the way comedy films are treated as compared to serious films and I have done too much serious stuff with ‘Pink’ and  ‘Indu Sarkar’ so it was very refreshing for me to do something like ‘Blackmail’ where way of acting, delivering dialogues is different and timing of things is so important that’s why I agreed to ‘Blackmail’.

When asked Kirti what helps an actor to get more work  - box office success of a film or good performance ,she said, “It’s both actually.. but numbers always helps. I think more than the performance but it also depends. There are some people in the industry to whom what matters is how good the actor is but to other people it doesn’t matter what matters to them how much money did the film made and what kind of market this particular actor has so, both the things matters but in different degrees to different people. Having said that, if I have performed brilliantly and my film doesn’t do well at the box-office, it does reduce the chances of me getting good and more work so I am hoping that ‘Blackmail’ does well at the box-office.”

Here’s what they said about ‘Blackmail’.

Arunoday Singh – I am very excited for the film. I missing Irrfan Khan at screening of this film and without him, the film wouldn’t have been the same the way it has shaped up. I think Pradhuman and Anuja also performed brilliantly in the film. I hope audience come to watch our film because I can assure them that it’s an incredible film.

Abhinay Deo – I am very excited for the release of the film. It’s a feeling of delivering your baby. We have been working on this film since last one and half year. We are certainly missing Irrfan Khan at the film’s screening. He hasn’t been with us for the promotion of the film but we are in touch with him and we regularly update him about the film. Amitabh Bachchan has given really positive review for this film and apart from him, other industry people and critics are giving positive review for the film but I am early waiting for audience reaction. I hope audience will go to watch movie because I think it’s a different kind of comedy. It’s my second attempt after ‘Dellly Belly’ in comedy. It’s a U/A certified film but I think Irrfan Khan has delivered one of the best performance from his career and I can proudly say that its best film from my career.

Kirti Kulhari - I am super excited for the film’s release. I have already seen it yesterday so now, I am even more excited after watching the film. I think it’s a superbly funny and quirky film. I think we all have been missing Irrfan (Khan) for a while now and we really wish he was with us. We have been getting positive reviews for the film and lot of people think that I have been bold in making choice like ‘Blackmail’ and the kind of character I am playing in it. Trailer of the film received great reactions from audience and I think the film offers much more than its trailer so I hope people will go to watch the film.

Anuja Sathe – I am very excited for the film and today we have organized screening for industry people and media. We have worked very hard for this film. We have been getting good reviews for the film and I hope audience will like the film. I am missing Irrfan Khan at the screening of the film. I really had great experience working with him in the film. We both have started our career from television so we used to have conversation about that while we were shooting for the film. My character is very twisted in the film so, people are not finding my character rude and I feel that’s a compliment for me.”
