Pakistani Sensation Adeel Chaudhary To Debut With Rhythm

 

 

Pakistani actors Fawad Khan and Ali Zafar have carved a niche for themselves in Bollywood, and now another Canadian based performer from across the border – Adeel Chaudhary is ready to mark his Bollywood debut.

The actor-singer, who marked his acting debut with the super hit Pakistani TV series “Kaise Tumse Kahoon”, first accessed the Indian market with his international commercial for Pepsi and then shot to fame with his chartbuster album ‘Koi Chehra’. He has also bagged the MTV award for his chartbuster song ‘Move Your Body’ featuring Shahid Kapoor and Vidya Balan. After featuring alongside Shah Rukh Khan in three ads, he is now ready to take Bollywood by storm with writer-director Vivek Kumar’s upcoming musical romantic film ‘Rhythm’.

 

Vivek says, “Since I always wanted to cast fresh faces in the film, it was important for me to place a face to the character to which the audience can immediately connect. I instantly knew that Adeel fits the bill when I saw the audition he had sent me. My faith in Adeel's ability to play Rohan was such that the first time we met was on the first day of the shoot.”

 

With so many achievements already under his belt, this Pakistani sensation is certainly a debutant to look forward to in this musical romantic film shot in the scenic locales of Poland.

 

 

Mandates: Presented by R. N. Kumar, Produced by Vivek Kumar, Releasing February, 2016.

Travis’ talk titled ‘How to Build a Business like an Engineer’ will involve stories from Uber’s journey, learnings from his entrepreneurial journey through the years and what it really takes to build the world’s fastest growing company. The session is expected to see an attendance of over 2500 students, start-up enthusiasts and local entrepreneurs.

PROFILE

As a student at UCLA, Travis founded Scour, the first peer-to-peer search engine. He later expanded on the concept, forming Red Swoosh, an enterprise content delivery platform, which was eventually acquired by Akamai Technologies. While visiting Paris for LeWeb in 2008, Travis and friend Garrett Camp dreamed of pressing a button on their smartphones one minute, and riding away in a reliable and stylish ride the next. Uber launched a year and a half later, in June 2010 in San Francisco.

Under Travis’ leadership, Uber has grown from an exclusive San Francisco-based service to an application used by millions of riders and hundreds of thousands of drivers worldwide. Uber has transformed the fabric of those cities, increasing affordable and reliable transportation options, delivering unmatched earning potential to drivers, reducing drunk driving rates and powering local economic activity. Where some people see dead-ends, Travis finds detours and new solutions to old problems. That approach is revolutionizing the way people move, work and live in cities around the world.

About Uber:

Uber is evolving the way the world moves. By seamlessly connecting riders to drivers through our apps, we make cities more accessible, opening up more possibilities for riders and more business for drivers. From our founding in 2009 to our launches in hundreds of cities today, Uber's rapidly expanding global presence continues to bring people and their cities closer.

WAZIR REVIEW PROMO

Divya Khosla Kumar dons her directorial hat on the sets of Big Boss with Pulkit Samrat and Salman Khan in an intense love scene!

Divya Khosla Kumar has commenced her promotions spree for her upcoming directorial venture Sanam Re with a bang! Started with the title song launch at an Arijit Singh concert to radio promotions and she also visited the famed Big Boss house with her lead actor, Pulkit Samrat. Contrary to popular beliefs that all is not well between Pulkit Samrat and Big Boss Salman Khan, it was great to see the warm camaraderie the two share refuting all reports of a so called fall out. The fall out was said to be due to Salman Khans connection with Pulkits now ex wife Shweta Rohira but the fact that Pulkit was present for the Big Boss shoot squashes all this. Ironically, there is another connection between director Divya Khosla Kumar and Salman Khan. The last time Divya was seen onscreen was for a music video called "Honey Honey" with Salman Khan all the way back in 2004!! 

So many connections, this Big Boss episode was as interesting outside the house as it is inside! Divya took the directors mantle and directed a scene with Salman playing Pulkit's character in the film "Akash" and Pulkit playing Yami's character  of "Shruti."  The scene was hilarious as Salman and Pulkit enacted an intense love scene with Akash (salman) asking Shruti (Pulkit), "Kya Tum Mujhse Pyaar Nahi Karti?" Pulkit who could not control his laughter but then sunk into the female character intensely said that, "Har Lamha Har Pal Bas Tumhi Se Pyaar Kiya Hain!" The scene not only entertained the audience, but also displayed the warm relationship that Salman and Pulkit share, putting rest to all the recent rumours and of course, Divya was very happy with the way things shaped up! 

Sanam Re is releasing in the week of love, Valentine's week on February 12th, 2016.

·         Farhan remembers great moments from his childhood friendship with Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bachchan, Uday and Aditya Chopra

·         Did you know Aditi Rao Hydari belongs to a royal family and is Kiran Rao’s cousin!

·         Aditi Rao Hydari: There is nothing that Farhan doesn’t do; that too perfectly!

Mumbai, 5^th January 2016: Bollywood’s new year is set to begin with the intensity of the unusual and power packed casting of superstar Amitabh Bachchan with the multi-faceted Farhan Akhtar inWazir.  This first release of the year, directed by Bijoy Nambiar, is also a talk of the town with one of the most melodious romantic songs of recent times Tere Bin. Not only this, the film will see Amitabh Bachchan playing a paralysed chess grandmaster with a very unusual look.

Frahan and Aditi on hotstar’s show M Bole Toh

Given its storyline and the powerful trailer, with music to match, it is believed that Wazir will interest teenagers and young adults. To reach young and upwardly mobile audiences who spend more time on the internet and mobile phones than television, two stars of the film – Farhan Akhtar and Aditi Rao Hydari, have featured on the latest episode of the hotstar Originals series ‘M Bole Toh’, sharing memories from their childhoods, and of shooting for the forthcoming film. With Aditi belonging to the royal family of Hyderabad and Farhan’s deep connections with the film industry, the episode offers unique and entertaining insights from individuals of two very different backgrounds and perspectives.

In a funfilled segment of the episode, Farhan and Aditi are seen fending questions ranging from whether they have ever cheated in a relationship, to when was the first time they made love, to whether they have manipulated anyone.

Some highlights from the episode:

In one of the segments of the show hosted by the lively Malishka, Farhan goes on to reveal:

“Salman was like an older brother to me. He taught me how to cycle and skateboard!”

Farhan also says, “Hrithik, Uday, Adi, Abhishek, Goldie and I have spent a lot of time together; there used to be lots of birthday parties. I remember there used to be a lot of dance competitions back then, which were a lot of fun. Can you guess who would win these? Adi (Aditya Chopra) used to win all dance competitions! Adi was the dancing champion. He was the guy to beat. Can you imagine that?!”

While not many are aware of Aditi’s royal lineage and that she is related to Kiran Rao, she goes on to reveal that she had quite a normal childhood. She says, “I had quite a junglee bachpan. Chui mui, mitti mein mat khelo type bachpan nahin tha. I was completely like a free-spirited kid and was encouraged to be that. I used to play dumb charades, pictionary, pakdam pakdai, 7 tiles, pitthu etc.” 

In one of the other segments on the show where Farhan and Aditi were urged to describe their industry friends in a hashtag, the two can be seen mimicking all their colleagues -- senior or junior; they spare none!

The episode surely would have been incomplete without Farhan and Aditi sharing their experience of working with the Big B himself. Farhan says:

“I came into the industry as Mr. Bachchan’s work inspired me. Between shots and during free time, I used to always go up to Mr. Bachchan and talk about his films that influenced me. So we spoke a lot about Deewar, Sholay, Shakti. Wanted to know from his point of view what that whole experience was like, how he approached certain scenes. He shared everything with me. It was a wonderful experience to spend time with him.” 

Aditi says -

“Mr. Bachchan's amazing command over the language is something that I would like to imbibe. He effortlessly delivers the most complicated lines.”

In another fun-filled segment of the episode, the Farhan and Aditi are seen fending questions ranging from whether they have ever cheated in a relationship, to when was the first time they made love, to whether they have manipulated anyone.
