Azharuddin’s real life wife meets reel life wife!!

The gorgeous and talented actress, Prachi Desai who will be seen next in Azhar Biopic was recently seen at a leading designer's collection preview for Vogue!!

Interestingly, Prachi Desai met Azharuddin’s second wife Sangeeta Bijlani at the event and the two greeted each other very well! 

We hear that the duo even had a good chat during the event and Sangeeta wished Prachi all the best for her upcoming film Azhar Biopic!!

Sidharth goes the Amitabh Bachchan way.

Sidharth Malhotra has made inroads in the industry on his own merit.

His learning has been on a filmset and yet he managed to push the envelope film after film. 

In two of his upcoming films namely Brothers and Kapoor & Sons, Sidharth will be seen sharing screen with Akshay Kumar and Fawad Khan respectively.

While in the 80's this was a roaring trend where we saw Amitabh Bachchan sharing screen space like with Dharmendra in Sholay or with Shashi Kapoor in Deewar it somehow faded to be the trend with actors in the years to follow.

However, Sidharth seems to be bringing the trend back in Bollywood.

RAINDROP MEDIA VOTED MOST POWERFUL AND INFLUENTIAL BY VERVE

Rohini Iyer among the country's most influential woman features in Verve's Most Powerful for 3 years in a row

Epitomizing all that powerful, Raindrop Media,India’s Numero Uno Reputation Management company has had a meteoric rise and has fast become a powerful force to contend with.

Raindrop has to its credit an outstanding client list consisting of Bollywood’s crème de la crème and have been instrumental in the turning points of superstar careers, hence it comes as no surprise that Raindrop Media Founder & Director ,Rohini Iyer,finds herself amongst the country's most influential women in Verve Magazine's Power Issue.

Celebrating women's strength , Verve spotlights 50 Indian women who have showcased their exceptional ability through their achievements in the last year. 

Joining the likes of Chanda Kochhar -MD ICICI, Businessman woman and humanitarian Nita Ambani, Producer Ekta Kapoor, journalist Barkha Dutt, Indian External affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, Indra Nooyi - CEO Pepsico, Grammy award winner Neela Vaswani and Bollywood superstar Priyanka Chopra, among others ,Rohini Iyer was selected to be part of the prestigious list thanks to her drive,vision and unwavering focus to push the envelope in the domain of Reputation Marketing.

Not surprisingly, the power player finds herself on the list three years in a row, a feat not many in the film and media industry have managed to achieve.

Talking about Rohini Iyer says Verve Magazine, "A true game changer, Rohini Iyer has redefined the destiny of stars and success in tinseltown. She started her career at 16 and has steered her company to its present commanding position in the industry. Iyer has single -handedly been responsible for turning points in the careers of prominent superstars".

Bonding over work

A perception of a film set can be a tense atmosphere where work is happening for non-stop 12 hours. But it is not in the case of Bhushan Kumar’s upcoming film Sanam Re. The films cast and crew knows how to work hard and party harder. The exhaustive film schedule has been shot in Shimla, US, London, Leh, Mumbai and Canada, but the actors certainly know how to take a chill pill in between shots.

On choosing the unusual cast which comprises of Pulkit Samrat, Yami Gautam and Urvashi Rautela, director Divya Khosla Kumar says, “I wanted actors who have not done hard core commercial cinema. In the past whenever I  interacted with Pulkit I got a hint of sadness in him. For this character I wanted that intensity. I didn’t want somebody with an image, so Pulkit really appealed to me. He was the first person I narrated the story to and he immediately came on board.”

The Yaariyan director continues, “The girl’s role in the film has a lot of layers and has various spectrums to it. Yami is a very good actress; I wasn’t looking for someone who has done a lot of work. I feel when you are new, then you know that there’s a lot of hidden potential and you can bring out a lot. That was very exciting for me as a director.”

The stills of the film are out which shows a sizzling chemistry between the lead pair of the film. Yami says, “Not many people know that Pulkit and I had worked in the earlier phase of our career. It was five years back, when I was new in Mumbai. We had worked on a music album. That was the first time we had met, and we only exchanged a ‘hello’ between us. Both of us are very big introverts; we take our own sweet little time to open up. It was a two-day shoot in Goa where we did not interact much. Before starting to work in this film, we did couple of workshops together. I must say Pulkit is a fantastic actor 

to work with. Your co-actor should be friendly, supportive, and It is very necessary to have a sense of compatibility between two actors, certain wavelength should be there, so I share such a bond with him.”

in Sanam Re we bonded over lunch and cracked jokes with each other. “It is a memorable film for me and I am looking forward for its release.”

Directed by Divya Khosla Kumar, Bhushan Kumar’s Sanam Re stars Pulkit Samrat, Yami Gautam, Rishi Kapoor, and Urvashi Rautela. The film is slated to release in February 2016. 

Urvashi Rautela who plays a prominent role in the film says that, “I never had so much fun on any film set as I did in Sanam Re. We bonded over lunch and cracked jokes with each other. It is a memorable film for me and I am looking forward for its release.”

Ayushmann & Bhumi’s Love Story to Open International Film Festival

July 7th, 2015: Ayushmann Khurana & Bhumi Pednekar will work their charm on audiences in distant Canada when their runaway hit, ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ will open the first Ottawa Indian Film Festival Awards (OIFFA) this July.

Slated from July 22 to July 25, OIFFA will draw NRI audiences & foreign viewers who love to savor Bollywood. Breaking away from tradition of kick starting a film festival with a big budget, multi starrer or musical, this festival has preferred to open with the much applauded performances of Ayushmann & Bhumi in this unusual love story. ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’, a low-key release, ran in theatres for over 50 days; and without minimal publicity, has become the year’s most loved super hit. The film has also made a sizeable profit for its production banner, Yashraj Films.

In roles that have been perceived as ‘breaking stereotypes’ for Ayushmann Khurana & Bhumi Pednekar, the film is highly anticipated amongst South Asian movie buffs in Ontario. Says Ayushmann, "I am glad that ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ has worked well with both the critics and the audience. Its content, realism and performances make it one of the better films of the year".

While critically acclaimed Indian films like ‘Dhanak’ & ‘Haraamkhor’ will also be shown here, organizers of this South Asia centric film jamboree are counting on the universal appeal that Ayushmann & Bhumi will add.

The four-day festival with cutting-edge global South Asian cinema will be showcase over 15 films, and will play out in popular theaters like Cineplex, Coliseum & the National Arts Centres, Ottawa, Ontario. 

ANU RANJAN-Celebrating WOMEN IN SPORTS & BUSINESS

On Saturday 11^th July 2015 in South West London, Anu Ranjan will join a distinguished group of businesswomen and men to enjoy the 2015 Wimbledon Ladies Tennis Final.

The fact that this is the Ladies Final is significant in so many ways. Surprisingly it is only 8 years since the introduction of equal prize money for the men and women players with many still believing that the men’s game is ‘more interesting or attractive’ to watch. This is hard to believe, if you have ever witnessed the powerhouse that is Serena Williams move around the court at lightening speed.

Not only will this day be about witnessing and celebrating the absolute pinnacle of women in sport, but Anu will be hosted by Gerrie Smith- Managing Director of the female led global branding consultancy HONOUR and Amjad Aly- Business Director Honour..

Anu and Gerrie will be joined by other significant women, including the Maharani of Baroda, Fatima da Gloria – Director of Brand & Communcations at SkyTeam, the global airline alliance, Emma Isaac – Group Brand and Marketing Director at Barclays and Melinda Kecskes– Global Airline Executive and The Maharaja of Baroda ,Mike Crump-Aviation Branding Specialist amongst other dignitaries..

Anu’s passion for the rights of women and girls is self evident as the founder of 'BETI - a movement'  that works tirelessly to bring justice to the fairer sex.

Pritam takes up for Indian classical music!

Post his comeback, Pritam Chakraborty is maha-busy with some of the most-awaited films of the year including Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Dilwale, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Jagga Jasoos, Phantom. However looks like there is a serious issue that keeps haunting the ace music director. Pritam feels that there is a serious dearth of musicians who are working towards keeping the Indian classical music alive. He says, “I think it’s a serious concern as there are only few musicians left who actually know how to play the old classical instruments. It’s about time that someone should take an initiative to keep the Indian music alive. In the West, we see people working towards saving and preserving their western classical music. Like, we can go to Prague to record a Western classical piece.” Ruing the fact that the classical form of many Indian instruments are not finding takers, he adds, “Earlier, every musician had their own team, but now we do face problems when we want certain Indian classical instruments. Those who learn these crucial instruments will be most in demand soon as they would be the only ones trained enough to play them.”

Madhavan gets mobbed at Facebook HQ in California

R Madhavan, who’s riding high on the success of his last release Tanu Weds Manu Returns and busy promoting his upcoming film Saala Khadoos, took some time out to visit Facebook headquarter in San Jose, California.

A source says, “The officials at the Facebook office had approached Madhavan requesting him to visit their office in California. He was amazed to see the reaction of officials at the headquarters of the social networking site’s office who praised his look from the movie Saala Khadoos. Madhavan interacted with the employees and spoke about Tanu Weds Manu Returns and shared interesting anecdotes at the event.”

“The actor also understood their operations at Facebook office. After the interactions, the frenzied fans mobbed their favourite actor asking for autographs and selfies with him,” the source adds.

Boman’s dus ka dum!

                                                      

Boman Irani is in Zurich, where he had been invited to deliver a motivational speech. Interestingly, the event also coincides with Boman completing a decade of conducting motivational talks and workshops at the corporate level. This facet of Boman’s life may come across as a surprise for many who know him only as an actor. Yet in the corporate field, besides being known for his brilliant onscreen performances, Boman is a name synonymous with his highly inspirational talks that have often become the turning factor in the lives of many from his academic audience. And the talks, points out Boman, are not about his successful journey in Bollywood, but about his life’s ups and downs up until the point when he became a film actor at the age of 44. “My talk is an anecdotal journey which starts the day I was born to the day I signed Munnabhai MBBS,” shares Boman, adding that he tries to narrate his early failures with more glee than he does his successes. “The greatest comedy comes out of misfortune! So I am not there talking about triumph of a physical form like scaling the Himalayas, or in my case my success after becoming an actor, but about the struggle before I reached there. So people know I worked as a photographer before I turned to films, what they do not know is that I have worked as a waiter too and a struggling theatre actor that trained me to become the actor I am,” he says. Recalling how his journey as a motivational speaker began, Boman, who has been getting standing ovations for his sessions, reveals that it all started ten years ago. “Back then, I used to host corporate events, but when I would get on stage, many from the audience would often ask me questions about my journey, and it would end up becoming an interview session. So, the CEO of the company suggested that I should actually do the session as a motivational speaker! That’s when the penny dropped and I decided to conduct these workshops.” But does the corporate audience find it easy to connect to a Bollywood star? “The alienation is narrowed down in an instance when I tell them that my story is no different than theirs. What also helps is that I have never played larger than life figures in my films. My characters on screen have come out of everyday life and people find it easier to connect.” However, Boman while inspiring lives, insists that his audience not get starry-eyed about celebrity-dom and leave their cushy jobs in pursuit of dreams alone! “I always ask them to pursue their dreams but also to be realistic about their own core competence. What needs to be remembered is that it takes a lifetime of hard-work to become an overnight success!”
