Shahid Kapoor's next with Genelia D'Souza titled Chance Pe Dance?
Ken Ghosh's Shahid Kapoor starrer is getting in news each day. Earlier it was Jiah Khan's replacement with Genelia D'Souza. Now it is the change in title of the film for the third time. The title change started from Star to Yahoo and now the film is apparently been renamed asChance Pe Dance.
It is learnt that director Ken Ghosh wasn't happy with the earlier titles. Being a dance-based movie, the director finds this title apt and has finalized for the same.
Ken Ghosh says, "We haven't locked any final title as yet. And nor was Yahoo or Star as the film's title. We are still deciding for the same." Has Chance Pe Dance title been finalized? He says, "Not as yet, we will be finalizing it by end of this week."
However, a source from UTV maintains, "The promos and poster have been locked on the title of Chance Pe Dance."
The film stars Shahid as the dancing sensation in the film. It is all about a middle class youngster who goes on to become a music sensation. The problem arises when he experiences a misfortune and gets into dejection. Ultimately, he recovers and hits the track yet again. Justin Timberlake's choreographer Marty Kedulka and Britney Spears' choreographer Brian Friedman have trained Shahid for the film.
The movie is due to release in November.

Shahrukh in Trouble, faces detention at U.S. Airport For Being *Khan*
Shahrukh Khan was humiliated and he naturally got offended when he was detained and questioned severely at an U.S Airport for having the surname Khan. Shahrukh said even one of his guards who had the same surname was detained and questioned for over two hours until the Indian Embassy Officials came to his help and disclosed his identity. It is an irony that Shahrukh is acting in Karan Johar’s My Name is Khan which deals with the same issue. Sharukh has the film fraternity beside him who said and tweeted on this dentention equivocally.“I’m shocked and upset...feeling terrible for Shah Rukh,” said Karan Johar, after his friend actor Shah Rukh Khanwas detained at a US airport for having the last name ‘Khan’.
Actress Priyanka Chopra also tweeted, “Shocking, disturbing and downright disgraceful. It’s such behavior that fuels hatred and racism. SRK's a world figure for God’s sake. GET REAL!!”
Music director Vishal Dadlani (of Vishal-Shekhar fame) also posted, “This is plain silly!! I mean, a quick internet search would tell them what they need to know about SRK!! Paranoia breeds stupidity, I guess!”
Shahrukh said - The US has developed religious paranoia over the years. My guard was also denied a visa because he has the same last name as mine. They said I can’t use my phone.”
Shahrukh had been to the U.S for the Independence-Day celebrations, including Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan.

BRANGELINA TO ADOPT CHILD FROM INDIA'
The Hollywood 'It' couple Brad Pitt and and Angelina Jolie are planning to adopt a child from India,according to media reports.Angelina recently plans to adopt a child from India when she met the child stars of multiple Oscar-winning film ' Slumdog Millionaire ' When ten year old Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail asked the 'Tomb Raider' star why she had not adopted from his home country, she replied, "Well, I'll let you into a little secret, we will soon." The couple, who are popularly known as 'Brangelina', originally showed interest in adopting from India when they visited the country's Priya Darshini Orphanage in 2006, but were too busy to finalise the details, a source told the Sunday Express ."They filled out all the paperwork but had to put the adoption on hold because of all their other commitments," the source said.
Brangelina already has three adopted children Maddox, seven, from Cambodia, Pax, four, from Vietnam and Zahara, three, from Ethiopia as well as 2-year-old biological daughter Shiloh and their seven-month-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

Saifeena say's Jai ho
This Independence Day, they aren’t here — a prior commitment will see them, along with Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif among others, shaking hands, signing autographs and posing for pictures with 50,000 Indians in Chicago. A Meet-and-Greet with Bollywood’s big stars has been organised as an Independence Day treat for Indian fans in the US today and tomorrow, in Chicago and Houston respectively.Tomorrow is Saif’s birthday... so it will be a double whammy for old fans and new of the actor-producer who is riding a big high with the super success of his first home production. Before they flew to the US on Thursday night, Bollywood’s most photogenic and happening couple waved the flag and said “Jai ho!” to DT readers. They’d have loved to be here today, of course — swine flu notwithstanding, but the fans abroad have been waiting from ever since...
Kareena is used to the flag hoisting scene. As a child, she would hold elder sis Karisma Kapoor’s hand and toddle off to the RK Studios in Chembur in Mumbai where grandfather Raj Kapoor had a ceremony every Independence Day for the children in the family. Holi, rang barse and bhang, Rajji had for the elders! Then, when Karisma entered Bollywood and the sisters stayed with their mother in Lokhandwala, as a girl of nine or ten she used to attend the housing society’s Independence Day functions. But for the last five years, now, she has been out of the country on August 15. And while the patriotic surge is there, the ears strain to catch Jana Gana Mana wherever she is, it’s not the same as being in India on Independence Day.
Saif, on the other hand, remembers early Independence Days spent at the family’s royal seat in Pataudi, Bhopal, where they had their own flag and coat of arms. His father, Mansoor Ali Khan, was the ninth and last Nawab of Pataudi before Indira Gandhi abolished royal entitlements in 1971 by an amendment to the Constitution. The royal flag came down (he remembers it fluttering from his grandmother’s car) and the Indian tricolour came up at Pataudi. Today, despite the royal blood, and over Kareena’s protests that he sometimes acts like a little angrez, MAK Pataudi’s only son is as Indian is his Punjabi lady love. See the pride in their eyes as they wave the flag? That’s what we mean.

Deepika Padukone will have two comedy films releasing next year
Deepika Padukone has now moved on to comic roles with Sajid Khan's Housefull and Karthik Calling Karthik where Farhan Akhtar co-stars.Her earlier roles included Chandni Chowk To China (action genre), Om Shanti Om (heavy melodrama) and Bachna Ae Haseeno (romantic comedy).
While she has wrapped the shoot of Karthik Calling Karthik, she is currently shooting for Housefull in London.
On the Housefull set, most people Akshay Kumar, Lara Dutt, and director Sajid Khan are closet comedians with a sharp comic timing. Deepika was, quite literally, at her wit's end. She says, "I was lost. But Sajid does one very good thing. He acts out every scene. I find it easy to follow what he wants. I'm learning fast. I've realised that comedy is the hardest thing to do. And all these actors are so good at it. Akshay has worked with the best comic directors. I'm learning comic timing watching him."
Says Deepika, "I'm very comfortable working with Akshay. I was looking forward to doing comedy. It took me a while to get a hand of it. Now I'm having a ball doing comedy for the first time. "
About working with Farhan in Kartik Calling Kartik with Farhan, she says, "Since I'd already met him on his chat show Oye It's Friday, we got along on the set immediately. Farhan makes people around him comfortable. Maybe it was because he's been there done it all…acting, directing, producing. He made me very comfortable. When Kartik started and got over, I didn't even realize. It was so much fun."

Mugdha Godse worried for her parents who live Pune
Mugdha Godse, who is currently shooting in Mauritius, is distressed about the swine flu situation in Pune, where her parents live. The city has recorded the highest number of deaths due to the pandemic.The actress has been in constant touch with her parents and has been enquiring about their health and telling them about precautionary measures they can take to avoid contracting the flu.
Speaking from Mauritius she says, "I have been here for the last two weeks, and when I am not shooting, I am glued to my phone and the Internet. The swine flu epidemic has hit the city like crazy. Pune, has the highest number of swine flu cases, and it worries me. I have been talking to my parents everyday.
They've been indoors and only step out if they have some important work. They are taking all the necessary precautions. The city is on a bandh and I can imagine the intensity of the epidemic."
Until later
The actress is spooked by reports and images of people wearing masks and moving about on the streets of Mumbai, "I am coming to Mumbai on the weekend for my dubbing of All The Best. I also want to go visit my parents but they have asked me not to come, since it is very unsafe. They will probably come visit me once I am down for a longer time."
Mugdha is presently shooting with Bobby Deol for an untitled horror film.
Kaminey : Movie Review
Film: Kaminey (Thriller)
Cast: Shahid Kapur, Priyanka Chopra, Amole Gupte
Direction: Vishal Bhardwaj
Duration: 2 hours 10 minutes
Critic's Rating: ****
Yes, Kaminey is a smart and balsy film that brings Hollywood to Bollywood, reminiscent of the adventurism of Quentin Tarantino's action thrillers which catapult the viewer into the dark, violent world of crime and criminals, leaving you no time to blink or breathe easy.
More importantly, Kaminey is the first film which also credits its viewers with some intelligence. It demands your unbridled attention from the word GO and allows you to sit back only at your own peril. For if you aren't attentive and intelligent to figure some things out yourself, specially in the first half hour, you might be missing the twists in this sassy tale of twin brothers who end up hating and loving each other, all in a frenetic 24-hour time span. Of course, director Vishal Bhardwaj does tell it all gradually, but he presumes you'll solve the jigsaw without much of spoon feeding. And therein lies the power of Kaminey. It teases you with its smartness and constantly challenges you to keep pace with the breathless tenor of the drama that unfolds through fast cuts, dizzy hand-held camera angles and a dark, brooding ambience. Watching Kaminey is like sitting on the edge of a volcano which can explode any time. And explode it does!
Thematically too, Kaminey is a complete turnaround of the archetypal Bollywood script. You have the two brothers, but they detest each other. If Guddu, with the adorable stammer, prefers to live right -- he's the goal-oriented, peace-loving, non-violent common man types -- then Charlie, with the delectable speech defect, is hell-bent to get rich quick, any which way. Morals be damned. But one muggy day, the brothers find their lives turn turtle. Guddu must marry the maverick mee-Marathi-manoos politician's (Amole Gupte) aggro sister, Sweety (Priyanka Chopra) while Charlie, a small time gangster, must find buyers for the cache of cocaine which he steals from a bunch of corrupt cops. End result? Guddu ends up earning the ire of the rabid neta who cannot see his sister settling down with a non-Maharashtrian and Charlie enrages not only the crooked cops but an entire gang of drug smugglers headed by the wily Tashi (Tenzing Nima). The drama hits feverish pitch when the brothers end up with the wrong baddies and the only way to sort out the mess is to finally meet. Will Charlie give up his get-rich-quick dreams to ensure a happy end to Guddu's `fo fweet' love story? Will Guddu stop hating his twin for his errant ways and display some bhai-bhai emotion? Settle down for an edge-of-the-seat climax that brings Reservoir Dogs to Bollywood. Absolutely riveting stuff, with the camera going on a hitherto unexplored journey in Indian cinema.
Kaminey mostly draws its powers from the brilliant music score (Vishal Bhardwaj) and the innovative cinematography (Tassaduq Hussain) which
creates a whole new playground for criminals, thugs and goons to revel in. But it's the performances that leave you spellbound too. If Shahid Kapur brings alive two completely different characters as the wimpish Guddu versus the whacko Charlie, then Priyanka Chopra's Sweety completely reinvents the actor from glamour girl to earthy, fiery, unpredictable and impossibly in love Marathi mugli. Scriptwriter Amole Gupte (Taare Zameen Par) makes an absoultely dhamaal debut as the wily neta who is ready to sell his ideology (Maharashtra only for Maharashtrians) for a substantial sum of money. And newcomer Chandan Roy Sanyal is memorable as Mikhail, Charlie's edgy gangster buddy.
But eventually, Kaminey is a director's story. Vishal Bhardwaj not only gives you a crackling screenplay, brimming over with smart one-liners, he creates cameos that stay with you long after curtain call. Example: Priyanka's drunken seduction act, where she declares she loves Guddu more than Mumbai, Chennai, Thiruvanthapuram....Amole Gupte and Chandan Roy's childish caper with the gun as Bope and Tope, Shahid's `Fiderman' dance, the high-strung encounter between Charlie and Guddu, the Dhan Te Nan exuberance and the high-decibel climax. Truly, Kaminey's a heady vodka martini, leaving you both shaken and stirred. And no, don't even ask for the popcorns. You'll leave them untouched coz this one just isn't the regular-run-of-the-mill popcorn flick.
Tarantino, take a bow. Brave new Bollywood is here.
