Pooja Bhatt claps on Imaandaari ki Maa Ki Aankh
Present to clap the culmination of a 24 year old friendship, Pooja Bhatt launches Imaandari Ki Maa Ki Aankh, journalist-turned filmmaker S Ramachandran’s debut production.

Tanu Weds Manu
After Band Baaja Baraat, yet again another shaadi movie? But but but, do not despair. Tanu Weds Manu is not about wedding planning but really about a couple that coulda, shoulda, woulda been. What had me gravitating towards the film was actually a mere song: Sadi Gali. And it would be unfair to add that [...]
7 Khoon Maaf
Even before walking in to watch 7 Khoon Maaf, I was done with Priyanka Chopra. It’s been Piggy Chops overload in the last year. I mean she’s been E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E. If she’s not in every publication, then she’s promoting a film, hosting a television show or creating hungama vis-à-vis her relationship with Shahid Kapoor. Too much P.C. [...]

We’ve all seen fans, but Sundeep Malani claims he is Sridevi’s number one fan. In fact, he has gone on to claim that the likes of Ram Gopal Varma and Karan Johar don’t even come close to his obsession with Sridevi. His love for the actress dates back to his childhood. “I can still remember [...]
Kukunoor Chooses Takia over Shetty!
It is true. Relationships will always prevail over anything in life; even in Bollywood. And this is the exact reason why Nagesh Kukunoor decided to recast his upcoming untitled film, with rakhi sister Ayesha Takia. Initially it was Shilpa Shetty who was chosen to play the lead female role. In fact she was so psyched [...]
Patiala House
Look, Nikhil Advani is basically a director is looking to redeem himself and how. Let’s take a walk through his filmography. Kal Ho Na Ho put him on the map as a director who could do a thing or two. Then he gave us Salaam-E-Ishq. Should we say more? Despite the monstrous star cast, his [...]
Editorial – Filmfare Awards: A Sham?
I’ve always been a Bollywood award ceremony junkie; the stars, the performances and the clothes. In the past, I’ve always viewed most of the ceremonies as fair or fair enough. Yes, there is a fan lurking around in me and so when one of my favorites doesn’t win, I will admit, I do get a [...]
Yeh Saali Zindagi
Sudhir Mishra’s Yeh Saali Zindagi initially made waves for its cast, then its slightly derogative title and lastly its 22 kisses. As the director fought tooth and nail for each of the above issues, he eventually managed to wriggle of them. But the real question was, why is Sudhir Mishra making a film that has [...]
Farah’s New Muse: Sonakshi Sinha
According to Farah Khan, her next item girl is going to be her husband’s new leading actress, Sonakshi Sinha. After making Mallaika Arora Khan and Katrina Kaif dance to her tunes vis-
Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji
From the get go, Madhur Bandarkar’s Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji reminded me of the 1982 hit Shaukeen. The story follows three elderly men played by Ashok Kumar, Utpal Dutt and A.K. Hangal who are looking for some “fun” later on in life. By far, the film is one of the best Basu Chatterjee films [...]
Koffee with Karan: Ajay Devgn
In what can easily be deemed one of the most unconventional Koffee with Karan episodes, Ajay Devgn took over the couch as he openly spoke about, well, everything. The actor, who normally shies away from the media, decided, on persistence of his actress wife Kajol, to finally appear on the popular chat show. Ajay openly [...]
Dhobi Ghat
Disclaimer: Dhobi Ghat is not for those who have 1) no interest in India, 2) have no appreciation for the city and 3) for those who don’t have a connection with Mumbai. From the get go, Dhobi Ghat spells and smells of debutant director Kiran Rao’s innate love for her favorite city Mumbai. In fact, [...]
Bipasha and John: Nearly Done?
It seems that the love life of Bipasha Basu and John Abraham has a hit a slippery path. Rumor has it that the eight-year-old couple have found themselves in eye of a storm. While this is not the first time that couple have speculated to have split up, this time trouble seems to be brewing [...]
Finally! Ajay on KWK
While the chance of having Salman Khan on his couch is still up in the air, Karan Johar has somehow convinced Ajay Devgn to appear on Koffee with Karan. The actor has never been a part of the show despite Kajol being good friends with Karan. Devgn has cited the “gossipy” nature of the show [...]
Koffee with Karan: Lara Dutta and Mahesh Bhupathi
Yet another week, yet another Koffee with Karan. And this week, Karan Johar brings to his infamous couch, to-be-weds Lara Dutta and Mahesh Bhupathi.

Turning 30
The Indian woman today is different. No more is she expected to be a slave to her domestic responsibilities, sacrifice her ambition and live a life for her family. And as for marrying by a respectable age? Well, that entire idea can easily be kicked out the door. However, what can one do with social [...]
Yamla Pagla Deewana
The Apne clan comes together again for a funnier episode post their family drama. From the initial promos, Deol fans went insane as they featured all three: Dharmendra, Sunny and Bobby creating quite the ruckus on screen. From the get go, the film looked like a full-on entertainer with a clearly Punjabi plot and a [...]
Salman Comes to Farah’s Rescue!
Tees Maar Khan has been declared a dud but even that cannot dampen director Farah Khan’s spirit. After feeling slightly distraught by the lack of acceptance towards her film, the actress was down and out. It was then that old friend Salman Khan called up Farah to let her know to start working on her [...]
Anil Sadaragani’s Tibet Abandoned!
Documentary films in India tend to get little to no attention simply because Desi’s prefer masala to reality. So what happens when a well-known Hindi cinema assistant/associate director decides to make a documentary on the trials and tribulations of Tibet? You get Anil Sadaragani. The prominent journalist, who has been a part of Madhur Bandarkar’s [...]
