He has been an avid bicycle aficionado for ages, but after a long time Salman Khan has chosen to endorse his passion for bicycles in a big way through Bharat, probably with reference to the context of the period that Bharat tries to situate itself it to. It is the common man?s bicycle that Salman Khan would be riding in Bharat, which as a template was emotionally marketed to a finesse by the original Bharat Kumar of the nation aka Manoj Kumar through his super hit film Shor.
When was the last time as a matter of fact did one see a major film star of the Hindi cinema riding a bicycle in the film? In the recent times when the fancy cars and superbikes that have made their debuts and have been positioned as a symbol of machismo, humble bicycle did went into an oblivion from the Hindi cinema.

Directed by Akshay Roy
Sometimes a debutant director shows a spark that never quite lights up the screen. God knows, Akshay Roy displays a keen eye for Kolkata’s eccentricities: the trams and the fast-food lanes, the Durga idol silhouetting the hero’s suicide attempt, the loud boisterous parents of the Bengali protagonist Abhi….so called, so that the theme song of his love story could be ‘Abhi na jao chod kar ke dil abhi bhara nahin.’
Abhi….get it?
There is a lot to ‘get’ in Meri Pyari Bindu including its corny cross references to films about unrequited love like Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Nikhil Advani’s Katti Batti. Then there us film’s Padosan-inspired title. The film’s most embarrassing sequence has Abhi’s parents enacting the Kishore Kumar song in a car park.
Cringe late. Parineeti Chopra...

Hey Bro is a forthcoming film that has been directed by Ajay Chandok and features choreographer Ganesh Acharya as the main ‘hero’ of the film. A story about judwaa (twin) brothers with a twist, this is the first time that the audience will see Ganesh as an leading actor and not just a choreographer.
There are five songs in the soundtrack of Hey Bro and upon first hearing, one can instantly tell that they are situational songs and will make a lot more sense once seen with their respective promo video or within the film. The music of the film has been composed by music directors Nitz n Sony (Nitin Arora & Sony Chandy) who have very bravely experimented with the sound of their music and have not stuck purely to one music genre in this album.
First up is Mera Gaana Bajade DJ which has vocals by Sunidhi Chauhan and Ali Zafar.

The two chatted about old times and had dinner together. Says Asha, "It was a very pleasant surprise.And least expected. Saira just decided to drop home to wish me.And we sat and chatted for quite a while." Interestingly, Saira is not known to socialize these days, choosing instead to stay home to look after her husband the legendary Dilip Kumar. Says Asha, "It was a very pleasant surprise considering Saira hardly ever leaves Yusuf Saab alone. We are contemporaries. But we were never rivals. We meet very warmly even today. The roles that Saira did went to her and the roles that I did were meant for me.Producers never went to either of us for roles that were meant for others." Asked...

Shah Rukh Khan recently stated in an interview with Filmfare Magazine that he never wanted to become an actor and assumed that he would never succeed within the world of Bollywood. The 47 year old actor took part in the interview to mark 100 years of Indian Cinema and also posed for a special edition cover along with two other legends; Dilip Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan. “I never wanted to be an actor; I always wanted to be a sportsman” said Shah Rukh. “The first person who thought I could be an actor was Harry Baweja. He called my mother and told her, “Main aapke bete ko zaroor hero banaoonga.” My mom immediately wrote his number on a wall. Mom, of course, wanted me to be in the movies. I was 17-18 then and I used to do theatre. I didn’t want to do movies. But once my mother died, there was nothing left in Delhi.

“Life isn’t all Haha Hee Hee” as Meera’s Syal’s book suggests, but in Bollywood, the comedy genre has its very own niche and following. For an all-rounded movie spectacle a la Dharma Productions style, any given movie should have portions of emotion, drama, dance, action and comedy. It can be said that in recent years, what is successful comically has altered because the audiences seem to have evolved in terms of what they find makes them laugh. However, it would be right to say that each Bollywood fan worldwide is able to list their favourite funny films in an instant. Here’s a special and unique selection of the films that continue to make us laugh until our stomachs hurt…
The first, and probably the most unconventional of the list, is Namastey London (2007). A story about a British girl, born and bred in London, who is taken...

The memoirs of Manu, a cinema-loving flight attendant, who over 30 years in the air, encountered some of the biggest, finest and funniest Bollywood stars?
The Incredible Kishore Kumar
I am a big fan of the great Kishore Kumar, having literally worshipped the distinguished singer, actor, music composer, lyricist, script-writer, producer and director par excellence all my life. My heart almost did a triple? somersault when I saw him for the first time at close quarters, walking into the aircraft on the London-New York flight that I was operating. He was my idol, my role-model and telepathically, my mentor!
Too Hot to Handle!
Kishoreda as we fondly called him, was dressed informally in loose blue trousers, a free-flowing yellow bush-shirt (with a red flower print) and a neat looking straw hat on his head. The hostess approached the singer and offered him a steaming hot wet towel with the silver-tongs. Kishoreda suddenly sat back,...
