Shah Rukh Khan Was Once Arrested For Abusing A Journalist (Picture Credit: IMDb)
Shah Rukh Khan might seem to be the most sensible man in Bollywood but there have been times when the actor has lost his calm and how! The same happened in the 90s when he was arrested after a journalist filed a complaint against Srk. But him being the Pathaan he is, he did not care still and threatened the journalist further in front of the policemen.
This story dates back to the time when Shah made a film called Maya Memsaab in 1992. He had shot some of the most explicit scenes of his career for the film. Some of the scenes were n*de as well. However, a magazine reported that the actor spent a night with actress Deepa Shahi to get comfortable before shooting for those scenes.
Maya Memsaab was directed by Ketan Mehta, and his wife,...

It was reported that Nandana Sen, lead actress of Rang Rasiya, would have to give Noc (no objection certificate) to the makers of the film before releasing the erotic content of the film. Rang Rasiya, directed by Ketan Mehta, has finally got a clearance from the Censor Board to release.
Nandana is amused by the reports, she says, “This is not true at all. Ketan and I were both bewildered to read about this fictitious Noc! From the start of our talks, it was as much Ketan’s choice as mine that I should be comfortable with the content of the sensitive scenes. I took time to think it over and discuss it with my extremely supportive family, before making a decision. It would be deeply ironic to censor myself in a film that criticises censorship, wouldn’t it? Incidentally, no one from the producer’s, director’s or distributor...

It's probably never happened before. One film released this week has jostled all the other releases of the week from the theatres on Sunday. According to reports from Fox-Star Studios, their production Force has taken over the shows in certain theatres allotted to Hum Tum Shabana, Chargesheet and Tere Mere Phere. Understandably the producers/directors of the affected films are fuming. Says Sunil Bohra, the producer of Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, "We are not affected. In fact our film has a growth of 40 percent over the weekend. It is the other three films (Hum Tum Shabana, Chargesheet and Tere Mere Phere) which are affected.

Film: 'Tere Mere Phere'; Cast: Vinay Pathak, Riya Sen, Jagrat Desai and Sasha Goradia; Director: Deepa Sahi; Rating: * 1/2 - a mismatched comedy.
Though comedy has grown into a lush genre over the years, few directors in India have mastered the art of relaying it on celluloid. 'Tere Mere Phere' is an earnest endeavour by actress turned director Deepa Sahi.
'Tere Mere Phere' is not only a romantic comedy, it is a black comedy, slapstick comedy, satire, comedy of manners, screwball comedy -- all rolled in one. Deepa's attempt to weave in every sub-genre of comedy is probably the nemesis of the.
