(1) Director Sajid Khan is in a spirited mood to add more and more members to his Bollywood Upcoming Movies 2011 name ‘Housefull 2’.
Before few months ago I heard and also shared here that, this movie has given entry to Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, John Abraham, Asin, Jacqueline Fernandez, Chunky Pandey, Randhir Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor.
Director and film makers have signed on Big B for a prominent role in ‘Housefull 2’ while Hot Sonakshi Sinha has been approached to play the third leading lady.
However, his dates are said to be available only post July, which in turn has brought some delay in the movie’s schedule.

“What I really like about Shankar is that he never forgets the common man, his fantasies, and what will be humorous or entertaining for him. Entertainment is Shankar’s biggest signature.”
“I just adore seeing him while he’s looking at the monitor after a shot is over — he is just lost in his world till he knows he has got his moment.”

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Lead Role in Bollywood Upcoming Movies 2010 name “Guzaarish” :-
Hrithik Roshan portrays the character of a paraplegic and she will be seen playing the character of a nurse, who becomes emotionally attached after nursing him, and they both get romantically involved.
Bollywood Megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s decision to become brand ambassador for Gujarat Tourism has not gone down well with the Congress, the party he had once represented from Allahabad as a Lok Sabha MP. “Amitabh Bachchan should not misuse his celebrity status and become the brand ambassador for the vested interests,” said Rajeev Shukla, AICC secretary and coordinator for Gujarat, adding that State Governments were not corporate entities that required a brand ambassador for image improvement.
“Celebrities should shy away from it, as it gives a poor impression,” Shukla said, recalling that Bachchan had earlier been a brand ambassador for Uttar Pradesh which had “bought electoral disaster” for the state’s the then ruling Samajwadi Party. “Only time will tell what will happen to Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi.”
AICC secretary in-charge of Gujarat P Sudhakar Reddy said the move was nothing more than an attempt to cash in on the goodwill of the actor.
After having a special screening of his film Paa for Modi last month, both the CM and Amitabh emerged great fans of each other. While Bachchan accepted Modi’s invitation to work as the “brand ambassador of Gujarat”, the state exempted the film from entertainment and other taxes.
Bollywood is truly taking over the west! One of India's entertainment channels, "Aapka Colors," has teamed up with Dish Network to launch in the U.S.!
After launching in the U.K. last week, "Aapka Colors" is now coming to America, bringing popular shows like "Jai Shri Krishna," "Swarg," "Balika Vadhu," "Fear Factor- Khatron Ke Khiladi" with Akshay Kumar and ”National Bingo" with Abhishek Bachchan to the U.S. audience.
"Aapka Colors" have chosen Bollywood Veteran Amitabh Bachchan to represent the channel in the U.S. and he said that "by taking on the responsibility of being its brand ambassador, I feel honored in being able to partner with a media channel that has been a conduit of social change while churning out excellent quality entertainment."
He also explained that "I am sure "Aapka Colors", with its myriad hues of entertainment, will spread its magic in the United States as well, as it did in India."
Bollywood Megastar Amitabh Bachchan and his son AbhishekBachchan were honored with the Best Jodi Award for their chemistry in "Paa" at the STAR Screen Awards.
Amitabh played Abhishek son who suffers from progeria, a disease that accelerates the ageing process. The father son duo also entertained the audiences at the event Saturday by doing the Auro dance at the behest of their hosts Shahrukh Khan and Shahid Kapoor.
After Shah Rukh's repeated request, Big B and Abhishek danced on the "Paa" number and Shahid and Shah Rukh too tried to match steps with them.
In all, "Paa" won five awards including best actor award for Amitabh, best actor female for Hot Vidya Balan, best child actor for Pratik and best supporting actor female for Arundhati.
India's Bachchan reverts to childhood in unusual film.
An unusual Indian film that casts 68-year-old Bollywood Legend Superstar Amitabh Bachchan as a 13-year-old school boy, with his own son playing the lead, has the world's most prolific film industry buzzing.
In "Paa," Bachchan plays Auro, a teenager afflicted with Progeria, a rare genetic condition that causes a person to age faster than normal.
And, in an ironic twist, the role of Auro's father is being played by Bachchan's actor son, Abhishek.
"The director of the film came up with the idea that he wanted me to play my father's father and we set about looking for a plausible reason to do that. That is when we came upon Progeria," Abhishek Bachchan told Reuters.
"Paa" opens in more than 700 cinemas in 20 countries on Friday.
Posters for the film, made on a budget of around $3 million, show an almost unrecognizable Amitabh Bachchan, with a large bald head, bulging eyes, and buck teeth, wearing a school uniform.
The film, however, focuses on the relationship between father and son, and doesn't "talk about the tragic life of a Progeria victim," Abhishek said.
Bachchan's role and heavy make-up, which took five hours to apply, is uncommon in Bollywood, which generally puts out films that revolve round love stories and trademark song-and-dance sequences, or more commonplace social or political themes.
"The makeup was the toughest part, but I don't want anyone to think that this is a film about Progeria. This is a father-son story at its heart," director R. Balakrishnan said.
Bachchan, one of India's most well-known and respected actors, said he was intrigued by the fact that he would play his own son's son, but Abhishek said he deliberately distanced himself from that real-life relationship.
"We are actors and we know that when the camera is rolling, all relationships go out of the window. As an actor I can't be thinking, "oh, he is my father, and I am playing his father.' That just messes with your head," he said.
