DABANGG 2 new stills: Salman Khan gets intimate with Sonakshi Sinha

Chulbul Pandey seems to be in a great mood – dancing and making love, in this fresh batch of pictures

The first Dabangg showed us a Chulbul Pandey who was angry at the world and at people in general. But in this new batch of stills from Dabangg 2, we see Chulbul display a range of emotions. The anger is there for sure, but there’s also a sweet and romantic side to him. There’s a pic that even shows a passionate Chulbul making love to Rajjo (Sonakshi Sinha), and thus consummating their marriage; something we missed in the first movie. Besides, he is also seen riding a new Suzuki Intruder, a limited edition bike that he had actually purchased for himself.

Chulbul is also seen putting his dancing skills to test. And for critics who were saying that Pandey jeeis a lazy dancer, this new avatar of his will silence them, as Chulbul is seen matching steps with Kareena Kapoor who is a complete treat to watch in her desi-glam avatar.

All in all, the stills give us a great peep into the random craziness one can expect from the second installment of the film. What better way to get to know Chulbul Pandey!

Ranveer Singh in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Ram Leela

Ranveer Singh in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Ram Leela

The actor will be seen in a hardcore muscular avatar in Ram Leela. And he recently revealed what’s the secret behind his deliciously lean frame

Ranveer Singh, who is accused of being a Casanova time and again, has had absolutely no time for love, lust or anything of that sort of late. The actor is extremely busy trying to make his body look like steel, for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Ram Leela, and he’s doing so with great grit and determination, we hear. And if the ‘made in heaven torso’ distracts you, look at his face, and you might mistake him for a junkie or a ship-wrecked sailor who has had a tough time surviving on the sea for months. He looks like a perfect combo of a Greek God body and Tom Hanks’ scruffy face from Cast Away.

But as we go raving about his toned upper bod, he spills the beans on how he has achieved this kinda awesomeness. It seems that the actor who was a huge fan of ‘functional training’ at one point in time, has now converted himself into a ‘drastic transformation programme’ lover. We hear many Bollywood celebs, including Hrithik Roshan (whose trainer is an inventor of this programme), indulge in this fitness routine for a leaner bod.

Ranveer emphasizes how being lean is the new cool thing, and being beefy so passé. But the actor also stresses on the importance of being mentally strong. Case in point is that despite his rigorous shooting schedule for Ram Leela, he takes out time for his DPT…err…DTP routine, whatever that is. We think after a while, Mr Singh will let his corrugated abs do the talking. Good for us, we don’t have to see his face covered with a bushy moustache and an unkempt beard anymore!

Heroine......The Wait Is Over

The Wait Is Over

"I’m a refined actor" –Bipasha Basu

"I’m a refined actor"  –Bipasha Basu

Fresh from the success of Raaz 3, Bipasha Basu speaks about her ups and downs in Bollywood

From a model to a popular Bollywood star, Bipasha Basu’s journey hasn’t been one without her share of ups and downs. But she has taken every experience in her stride and says she has emerged as an evolved person.

“Today, I am a refined actor, lived a little more life, have seen a lot, handle situations, not just a relationship, career-wise I have fallen down, come up again. I have had my run of relationship crises, staying away from my parents for a long time, loans to pay at times I didn’t know how to pay,” Bipasha said to a radio channel host.

The 33-year-old made her Bollywood debut in 2001 with Ajnabee. She was dating her Raaz co-starDino Morea that time, but parted ways with him in 2002. Then she became romantically involved with her Jism co-actor John Abraham, whom she dated for around eight years.

Professionally, her career picked up with films like No Entry, Dhoom, Corporate and Bachna Ae Haseeno. Her latest release Raaz 3 received a good opening, and Bipasha is happy the way life has shaped up for her.

“From 1997 to 2012, I’ve lived a wholesome life, moved from one room to one BHK (bedroom, hall, kitchen) to two BHK sharing with a friend. Then bought a car, but didn’t know how to drive and also couldn’t afford a driver. Finally, my friends ended up driving, so I realised there was no point of buying a car. I had a very broken life, yes sometimes broken down, sometimes very strong, so I feel I am a very evolved human being right now,” she said.

For now, Bipasha awaits the launch of her second fitness DVD, and her debut international project Singularity, will hit the screens early next year.

"why he picked me for this role, it was so unlike me" – Ranveer Singh

“I asked Vikram why he picked me for this role, it was so unlike me.”

– Ranveer Singh

Mention Ranveer Singh’s personality and the first words that come to mind are bubbly and energetic. Its no suprise then that Ranveer himself was shocked when he was chosen to play a reserved character in his next film Lootera. Vikramaditya Motwane’s period romance will be his third release but will be a first for the new actor in terms of leaving his hyper character in Band Baaja Baaraat and Ladies vs Ricky Bahl behind. For Ranveer however, this task appears to be one of his most challenging in his career.

During a recent interview Ranveer describe his difficulty saying, ”I am full of high energy, very talkative and extrovert in real life but my character is very reserved in Lootera. He is intense, almost brooding. I was just not able to crack this role during the workshop and felt frustrated. I asked Vikram why he picked me for this role, it was so unlike me.”

Describing how he ended up in the film, Ranveer says, “I loved Udaan and when when I met him [Motwane] at Filmfare award function I told him that I would love to work with him and immediately without blinking for a second he said, ‘I have something for you’. Next day we met over lunch and he handed me the complete bound script of Lootera. I cried when I read the story. It is one of the best scripts I ever read and it has shaped up beautifully on the screen.”

To prepare for his role Ranveer admitted to turning away from the tv, his phone and computer to help get into his character given that the film is to be shot in 1950s Bengal.  Despite his initial doubts, Ranveer says he is surprised with himself but does not credit that to his preparation but the guidance and confidence his director has in him. “Vikram used to tell me that I have a side like this. He used to tell me, ‘Trust the power of camera’ and it really helped me a lot during the filming. This role was something that could have gone easily wrong for me.”

It seems that after successful performances in his first two films the Bombay boy will have a variety of roles to play after recently bagging Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Ram Leela with Deepika Padukone and Yashraj’s next film Gunday along side fellow Yashraj heart throb Arjun Kapoor.

For Ranveer however, all his energy is focused toward Lootera which is set to release in March next year. The  O Henry story ‘The Last Leaf’ adaptation will see Ranveer share the screen with fellow fresh talent Sonakshi Sinha for the first time.

Vishesh Films has managed to deliver another hit with a relatively decent star cast, but a strong story and word of mouth publicity. With healthy box office collections, which are bigger than most movies released this year, Raaz 3 has come out as a clear winner.

Raaz 3 earned Rs 58 lakh for the paid previews on Thursday night, Rs 10.47 crores on Friday, Rs 11.10 crores on Saturday and Rs. 14.35 crores on Sunday – taking the total collections to Rs 36.5 crores in its opening weekend.

The horror movie based on the taboo subject of black magic has come out as Vishesh Film’s biggest opening ever – bigger than Murder 2 (36.5 cr) and Jannat 2 (35.55 cr). And with strong occupancy rates of more than 50 percent on both 3D and 2D screens, the film looks set to reach the Rs 50 crore mark!
