Surveen Chawla suffered from a temporary nervous breakdown while shooting for Hate Story 2.

Hate Story 2 has been appreciated on social networking sites due to its bold scene’s given by the debutant actress Surveen Chawla but it seems that one sequence of sexual violation was so cruel and realistic that the actress suffered from a temporary nervous breakdown.

Surveen Chawla confesses that she was totally stunned by the on- screen violation. The actress says,“I was completely into my character and when I had to perform a violent abusive sexual scene with Sushant Singh I was feeling completely violated and abused as though the experience was actually happening to me. I began to relate to women who go through sexual abuse and the trauma it causes. I felt the pain agony and the helplessness of a woman subjected to sexual subjugation. I was weeping from inside and outside while performing these scenes. These scenes were very demanding.”

Surveen took a while to come out of her character. “Coming out of character was not easy. I was hurt and battered, both physically and emotionally. Now I completely empathies with women who go through sexual abuse. I’d like to shake women, who take this kind of violence, by their shoulders and tell them to stand up for their right to exist with dignity. If a woman has to endure this treatment from a man she is better off alone.”

Sushant Singh accepts shooting such scene of sexual violation was not easy. “ There were a lot of violence and intimate scenes too. I’ve one specially violent lovemaking scene which went off pretty smoothly thanks to my co-star Surveen Chawla.” says Sushant, he has played brutal character all his career but none as sadistic as the one in Hate Story 2.

He further adds “ As an actor violence is nothing new to me. But the raw passion with which my character enjoys it is what makes him so menacing. It seems my character treats violence as sex and sex as violence.”

It’s been speculated that the character of the violent arrogant and brutal politician played by Sushant Singh in Hate Story 2, is based on Pakistani author Tehmina Durrani’s story of her disturbing marriage with an abuse from Pakistani politician Ghulam Musatafa Khar. The Pakistani link of Hate Story 2 is being kept cautiously under wraps and even Surveen Chawla’s graphic scenes of sexual violation are a strictly guarded.

Pink Lips Cross over 1million Likes

    Pink Lips Cross over 1million Likes

The Baby Doll team gives us yet another chart buster this monsoon. Sunny Leone is seen shaking to the song ‘Pink Lips’ composed by Meet brothers and choreographed by Uma-Gaiti. After a huge response from Baby Doll, there was a lot of pressure on Uma- Gaiti to deliver something bigger and better and they have done justice to this as well. Since Sunny was constantly shooting for a reality show, Uma- Gaiti had to send their assistants to Jaipur to help Sunny rehearse due to time constraint. (Having just 2days to shoot in hand)

Sunny is seen wearing six different outfits which sensually suit her persona while she grooves to the new dance moves in Pink Lips. This is the second time that the Uma- gaiti will be choreographing Sunny after their hit stint Baby doll. The promotional song is for the movie Hate story 2 produced by T-series and sung by debut singer Khushbo Grewal which is out now.

Uma – gaiti seem extremely excited after the Pink Lips teaser hit 1 million likes within 3days 

An excited choreographer duo Uma- Gaiti said, " Its been an absolute pleasure to put pink lips together. We have choreographed Baby Doll with Sunny so with Pink lips the process got easier. We had a better tuning this time and would get eachother faster. In  a shoot environment this really helps. Apart for the work equation with Sunny the song is extremely close to our heart as we have been involved in this making and all other creative aspects of it. Sunny was running a tight schedule we had sent our assistants to Jaipur for her to learn the steps. Pink lips was a huge challenge as it was being pitted against baby doll. We wrapped up 6 sets in a record time of 2 days. Kudos to the team and  Sunny.

The song is all set to make a fresh wave and top the chart of the year.

Security alert for Kick.

Keeping in mind the huge scale of Sajid Nadiadwala's Kick, the production team kept aside 5% of their budget just for security. Security budget is for shooting as well for huge scale promotions that are being planned.

This Salman Khan starrer has been shot in picturesque locations in Poland, studios in Bombay and real life locations in Delhi.

The film has been shot in old Delhi, where even walking on a regular day is an impossible task. 

Salman not only shot in chandani chowk area, old fort area... to be able to shoot in these areas Sajid Nadiadwala arranged for un heard of security and at least 4 different entry and exiting points.

Entire Delhi schedule was shot with 500 security people. In fact except for studio shoots every where security was in 100s. 

Delhi shoot would witness people in lakhs waiting for a glimpse of their star, Salman Khan. 

Salman Khan's fan following on streets is very huge. In fact even for a gaiety galaxy trailer launch Sajid had an entire area cordoned off with more than 100 security guards.

Sajid Nadiadwala says, "We did not want to compromise on the locations so even if that came with a huge cost involved, it was worth it. In old Delhi, we have shot on streets where it is difficult to even walk. All in all it was a different experience for me to shoot with thousands of fans surrounding the set."

The red carpet has been rolled back but the thunder of falling footsteps continues! With the fantastic start that Jagran Film Festival (JFF), got yesterday, the event is set to attain great heights in excitement this year! With great movies playing and industry star waltz at every nook and corner, the festival has indeed become bigger this year!

The second day at JFF began with aspiring actors getting a crash course on the inner workings of the man that directs the show. In the session called ‘What do the directors look for?’ veteran directors like Sudhir Mishra, Anubhav Sinha, Subhash Ghai and Atul Tiwari along gave their insight about the Do’s and Don’ts during casting calls and a general overview of the kind of acting skills and actors required in today’s day and time. Needless to say that scribbling of pens was creating quite a ruckus during this session!

The afternoon was reserved for talks on the business of film making. The session titled ‘Investing in films a losing venture or a viable option?’ was chaired by eminent members of the film financing world namely, T P Aggarwal (Vice President, FFI), Ravi Kottaraka (President, FFI), Hansal Mehta (Director, Shahid), Hariharan (Director, Kerela Verma Pazhassi Raja) along with Manoj Srivastava (Consultant, JFF). The discussion revolved around the changing tastes of the Indian audience, the competition Indian cinema receives from other forms of entertainment and Hollywood as well the evolution of cinema itself. The verdict was in favor of our beloved cinema and it seems like it still is a good investment for anyone interested in the creative side of things!

The festival started with the showcase of Kanyaka Talkies (Virgin Talkies), a malyalam movie. The movie is a debut by the renowned K R Manoj, who is also a national award winning documentary film maker. Kanyaka Talkies revolves around a B-grade movie theater of the 80s and 90s. While weaving a gripping story around the transformation of the theater into a church, the movie delves deep into the matrix of body, desire, pleasure and guilt.

The other movies shown included the much appreciated Shahid, Gulab Gang based on the power of women, the non-conformist Shudh Desi Romance.  The day ended with the much awaited movie Manjunath, which is the real life story of the celebrated 27 year old dead Manjunath Shanmugham, who was brutally murdered for exposing the petrol adulteration scam by the fuel mafia in Uttar Pradesh in 2005.

Aditya Roy Kapur rooting for small teams

Actor Aditya Roy Kapur, an avid follower of football, has been following the FIFA World Cup religiously, and even inviting his friends over for viewing parties.
The ongoing tournament has produced some exciting, unexpected results, with several countries that were considered underdogs putting in good performances. The likes of Colombia and Costa Rica have done so well that people have been betting on them winning too.
Ask Aditya to analyse the performances so far and he says, “Argentina and Brazil need to stop relying on their star players, Lionel Messi and Neymar respectively.
In the last match, Germany missed their centreback, Mats Hummels, and Mesut Özil needs to improve. Otherwise, they have been perfect.” Aditya loves playing football, and he recently watched a few games live in Madrid, Spain.
He is a huge football fanatic and has been absolutely engulfed with the FIFA mania.
While Spain, and even England, stunned fans by not making it to the round of 16, the actor is impressed by the smaller teams that have managed the feat. “Colombia and Costa Rica have got here because of their unity and spirit.
They work for each other, probably because they don’t have established players. There are no big egos in the dressing room, so they play as a unit,” he says.
