Vinod Khanna to play Buddha in Amrapali!

Director Atul Garg has roped in senior star Vinod Khanna to play Buddha in his film, Amrapali, that went on the floors recently. The filmmaker shares that it was the veteran actor’s personality and spiritual background that made him the first choice. “Vinodji has the rare combination of a regal aura and a calm demeanor that can only come with a background of practicing meditation and having a spiritual thought process. There is no actor who would not want to play the role of Buddha, but Vinodji was perfect for the role. It would take any other actor months to prepare and attain the calm and meditative state, but it would be easier for Vinodji as he is already into vipassana. His spiritual background and awareness because of all the time he spent with Jiddu Krishnamurti and Osho makes it easy for him to get into the character. Only a seeker of truth can understand Buddha's philosophy,” explains Garg. The director adds that the star was equally excited about the subject when he sent him the script in March and he is well aware of the philosophies too. They will start shooting sometime early next month. “I'll need to shoot with Vinodji for at least a month,” says the director. Talking about the film, Garg shares that unlike Lekh Tandon's 1966 Sunil Dutt-Vyjayanthimala starrer, Amrapali, which was primarily a love story, this film is a social commentary on an era when Buddha ruled as a spiritual king. “It is not Amrapali’s story, but a story about Amrapali’s time,” he adds.

Newbie Jinal Pandya will be playing the `bride of Vaishali' Amrapali, who mesmerised several royals with her beauty but was herself so influenced by Buddha after serving him a meal that she renounced her position as state courtesan to become his active supporter.

Bangistan to release on 7th of August.


The year 2015 has been a prosperous year for the Entertainment industry and the month of July has been an unprecedented season for the box office with multiple films doing well. 

The film's have also managed to make and break a few records, some with their content and some with their uniqueness.

Not only have the films been commercially successful, but the content has been universally appreciated too.

This has created a bottleneck at the box office and rather than clogging it further, the makers of Bangistan have decided to shift their release date to August 7, which gives it a much better release environment. 

The film has been buzzing positively and it would much rather utilise a solo release date.

Says co-producer Ritesh Sidhwani, “Last few releases are rocking the box office collections, which is great for our industry and since our film is tracking well, my distribution team strongly believes that releasing Bangistan on August 7 will be beneficial for our film.“

Upcoming Actress Antara Banerjee.

She's playing lead role in upcoming movie "Yeh Hai India".

The rising star Antara Banerjee’s journey from TV to films

A bubbly, enthusiastic and full of energy girl from Kolkata, Antara Banerjee is a complete go-getter. Antara dreams of becoming a successful actor and making big in Bollywood.

Through a career that has seen a steady trickle of few cameos in Hindi films, but none that particularly nailed her as a big-star - Antara is as real as a Mumbai matinee girl can get. Antara’s personal compass seems to have led her into a comfortable work-life space.

On the work-front, she’s exploring Hindi cinema - her first Hindi film by DLB Productions will portray her as lead actress opposite actor Ashutosh Kaushik. The film which is recently being shot at Jaipur, Amritsar and Mumbai, will be released soon. Antara is all excited to bag the dream role of her life. “This is the first film where I will be playing the lead role. She is a media person and a true Indian, exploring the various facets of India. It’s a patriotic film, portraying what it takes to enhance the image of our country on an international map,” narrates Antara.     

A Bengali girl belonging to a humble family background from Kolkata came to Mumbai few years back. “It was my passion to become an actress which brought me to the city of dreams. To pursue my ambition of becoming an actress, I had to leave school post-grade 12,” says Antara.

The only daughter of Subrata and Atasi Banerjee, Antara shifted to Mumbai in 2013 and started pursuing her BSW (Bachelor in Social Work) from Nirmala Niketan College. But her long-hours of shooting for TV serials left her with no time to pursue her studies. However, her strong belief of continuing education opened-up several avenues. Antara is currently pursuing her correspondence course in English Literature from IGNOU.

After doing cameos in Akshay kumar starring movie, ‘Shaukeen’ and a few ad commercials, Antara burst onto the small screen in Balaji Telefilm’s teenage crime show, ‘Gumrah’, Life OK’s ‘Savadhaan India’, Franklin Production’s fictional shows and many more. Antara had also taken up modeling assignments for TVC brands in the past.

Known as a perfect sporty go-getter, Antara believes that eventually, the winner takes it all. “Don’t think too much about what is happening to you. Work hard, give it your best shot. Do the job you like, enjoy your life but never give up your work. If work is fun, if your days are passing quickly, you must be happy, right?” says the chirpy Antara.

Besides acting, Antara loves to sing and dance. A kathak dancer for the past 15 years Antara has done several stage-shows in Kolkata. Antara has also learned classical singing. Antara believes that such hobbies keeps you happy and glowing all the time.

Says a source, " Sonam wanted to unwind and backpack across Ladakh as that's something she wanted to do for the longest time. As soon as she found an open window she packed her bags and headed up north.She also decided to go on a digital detox and kept herself away from all kinds of technology including her ipad and phone.The next trip on her to-do list is Cambodia, which she plans to travel to in 2 months."
