Even Kalki 2898 Ad’s first look was said to be a copy of the Hollywood film Dune. Not only this, this year’s biggest controversy was the tampering of box office numbers and corporate and bulk bookings.

Deepika Padukone has ruled the film industry for over a decade and by the looks of it will continue to rule going by the string of successes and the constant and ever-growing love from audiences that she continues to amass. As Pathaan snowballs into a historic blockbuster with every passing day, fans can’t seem to get enough of Deepika Padukone’s Besharam Rang, her action, her moves, her edgy looks and her solid performance.
The superstar and Bollywood’s leading lady had audiences go crazy every time she was on screen in ‘Pathaan’ and the film’s director Siddharth Anand believes that she is a ‘complete’ Hindi film heroine, one no less than a hero and that amplifies her stardom threefold.
In a recent interview all praise for Pathaan’s leading lady, Siddharth Anand said, “Deepika Padukone is a massive, massive star – you realize when you work with her what her fans’ expectations are.

Mumbai, Feb 24: TV star and model Pranati Rai Prakash is set to venture into music with her debut single Tera muskurana, which is slated to release on February 25.
Pranati, who became a household name playimng the titular Binny in the comic TV series Mannphodganj Ki Binny, has not only lent her voice to the track but has also written and composed it, with Rishabh Tiwari.
"I have composed and sung my part in the music video. I started composing songs when I was 12 years old with a desire to express my emotions that were complex, larger, and beautiful and I wanted to express them better than just write in my journal. It feels great that I'm finally singing my composition for people to hear. I'm nervous and excited!" Pranati declared.

Amitabh Bachchan's journey of five decades to become the Bollywood "Shahenshah" was not always a smooth ride. Indeed, his life is nothing short of brilliant biopic material. Early rejections were followed by a phase when he made his mark as a promising actor, which was soon overshadowed by the kind of superstardom Bollywood never saw before or after. When the superstar tried his hand at film entrepreneurship, he went bankrupt, only to bounce back and claim supremacy as a super brand and respectability as an icon.
The first reaction of the industry all those years ago, however, was far from welcoming. His tall and lanky frame, and the baritone of his voice, were deemed unsuitable for Bollywood's image of a perfect hero back then. These factors were pointed out as flaws, and reasons why he wouldn't be able to make it big in the industry.

Ever since the news broke that Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh will be coming together on Koffee with Karan season 5, it had sent their fans into frenzy. And the time has come to hold on to your breaths (for those who have been waiting breathlessly!) to see the dynamic duo on the Koffee couch. The two leading actors of the new-gen Ranbir and Ranveer has set the couch on fire with their wit. So far, the popular chat show is indeed having a cracker of a season in a glorious manner. The show has truly entertained its audiences to the core. From Srk and Alia's witty conversations to Twinkle ruling with her candid and unfiltered words, from Akshay crooning Frank Sinatra song to Varun and Arjun adding the ‘hilarious best’ tag with their antics, the show has indeed started in a glorious manner. While we can't wait for the episode,...

It's either Ranveer or Ranbir, these days. A hard choice though but these two have made their names do the rounds all over. From appearing in Koffee with Karan Season 5 episode, to the interviews where the interviewee is given a choice to pick one of them, the duo is getting popular. The Dirty Picture, actor, Vidya Balan recently got trapped in the same questionnaire. Speaking in an interview for the promotion of her upcoming release, Kahani 2 with PinkVilla, Vidya was asked to make a quick choice as with whom she wants to share the screen space in a movie. The answer was candid, as the ‘Parineeta’ actor Vidya, never minces her words. She gladly replied in favour of Ranbir Kapoor. Not to disappoint Ranveer, she bluntly said, “he is a ‘Besharam’ (of course in a good way)”. Ranbir, the charmer, is romancing his way to glory. His sizzling chemistry with...

Be it onscreen or off screen, Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor are leaving no chance to woe fans with their quick wit, one liners and crackling chemistry. The actors are following a simple rule of ‘no-rules-limits-labels’ in the film's trailers, songs and behind the scene videos. By now if you have started to think it as a part and parcel of their promotion strategy, we beg to differ! The attitude of the duo, is pretty much same in real as they appear in reel. ‘Candid best’ can be the simplest way to tag them up during the launch of ‘Befikre's’ new song ‘You and Me’ on November 15. In the film, Ranveer and Vaani have shared kisses as many as 23 times and this is something that has kept everyone talking about. During the press meet, Vaani, who has locked lips with Sushant Singh Rajput in ‘Shuddh Desi Romance’ (2013), was asked...

Tamasha has done well over the weekend. The film took a good start on Friday (10.87 crore), showed growth on Saturday (13.17 crore) and then consolidated well on Sunday (14.12 crore), hence seeing a weekend of 38.23 crore. This has been a positive trend for the Imtiaz Ali directed film which was catering to a niche audience and was unlike any of the quintessential romcoms that hit the screens with every passing month. With a conventional narrative to boast of, the film has found good following from the target audiences, who have lapped up what was on display.
The film has now seen the best opening for a Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone starrer as their biggest weekend so far in 2015 was Roy (28.68 crore) and Piku (25.22 crore). Moreover, for Imtiaz Ali too, this is his biggest opening weekend ever, hence surpassing Love Aaj Kal (28 crore) and Rockstar (35 crore). What is all the more noticeable...

While his personal life is blossoming with love (as he is reportedly in relationship with Katrina Kaif), it seems our Bollywood heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor's career is going through a rough patch! After three back-to-back duds like Besharam, Roy and Bombay Velvet, looks like Ranbir's other projects are also getting jinxed. Well, we are talking about his upcoming film Jagga Jasoos, which is being helmed by Barfi maker Anurag Basu.
Much like Bombay Velvet, Ranbir's Jagga Jasoos also has been constantly delayed. Even the latest buzz in trade suggests that Jagga Jasoos has been pushed to next year (June) for release, as major portions of the film are being reshot. Like Bombay Velvet, Jagga Jasoos has been in news for various controversies. Right from Ranbir getting upset with the film shaping up to differences with his directors.

Bombay Velvet has created a record of amassing biggest losses of all times. With a poor opening, practically no word of mouth and zero patronage during the weekdays, it was a nosedive for the Anurag Kashyap directed film. With the filmmaker pretty much admitting the film’s failure before the end of weekend itself, the writing was clear on the wall. The film’s fate can be gauged by the fact that its first week total of 21 crore is less than Day One collections of Ranbir Kapoor’s Besharam, which too was a flop. In fact it is even lesser than the first two days collections of Roy.
While much is being said about Bombay Velvet impacting Ranbir Kapoor’s stardom, it is not going to be the case. A film’s failure impacts most when a fan-base watches the film and rejects it. However, Bombay Velvet wasn’t even seen by anyone,...

The much awaited R Madhavan, Kangana Ranaut, Jimmy Shergill, Deepak Dobriyal and Swara Bhaskar starrer, Tanu Weds Manu Returns, the follow up to the highly successful Tanu Weds Manu, started on an impressive note. The opening can be termed as great in Delhi-ncr, East Punjab and good at other places, except for some stations of South and East India. The icing on the cake was a further pick up during the latter shows, which consolidated the fact that Tanu Weds Manu Returns is a sureshot hit, how big or small time will tell!
Meanwhile, after a decent start (at high end metro multiplexes), Anurag Kashyap's Ranbir-Anushka starrer, Bombay Velvet, crashed badly, second day onwards, ending the first week with a dismal 24 crore (to be validated). The film turns out to be the second disaster of Ranbir Kapoor's career after Abhinav Kashyap's , Besharam.

After Besharam and Roy, Bombay Velevt is Ranbir Kapoor's third film in a row that bombed at Box-office. And it has certainly shaken the actor, who has been applauded for his sterling performances and gave some really good films in the past.
Ranbir recently in one of the interviews poured his heart out saying that 'there's a sense of insecurity and I don't know what's happening with my career'. While we definitely understand the plight of his mind and the ongoing situations, all we have to say is there is a dawn after every dusk! There is still more to go and look forward to. The charming actor doesn't need to lose heart and hope.

The prediction has failed, and how. In this column it was stated that Bombay Velvet would go on to net at least 10 crore on Day One. The barometer for such reasonable numbers, though not great by any means, was the opening of Roy which had stepped into double digits despite Ranbir being in a supporting role. However, all such predictions hit South when the D-day arrived. Though it had seemed that the Anurag Kashyap starrer would at least manage a face saving opening, none of that turned out to be true, what with empty houses greeting those select few who started stepping in sporadically.
Though it had seemed that the collections would improve as shows progressed in the evening, there was no respite as the word of mouth started trickling in. The film was hit on both counts, what with no opening and then poor word of mouth as well.

While dad Rishi Kapoor has always been proud of Ranbir Kapoor's various achievements, he doesn't seem to be happy with his son's latest decision (of being in relationship with Katrina Kaif). Though Rishi hasn't said bad things about Ranbir moving out with Katrina reportedly, he doesn't really seem to be approving of Katrina as his would be daughter-in-law. And this was quite evident when Rishi recently skipped the family dinner with Ranbir-Katrina, where entire Kapoor family was present.
While the real reason behind his dislike for Katrina is not known, we list down five probable reasons that are stopping Rishi from accepting Katrina.
She is a film star:Most of the star couples have seen an unsuccessful marriage and that might be one of the reasons why Rishi is averse to Ranbir-Katrina's relationship.
She is not Indian:Another factor which might be preventing Rishi from considering Katrina is the fact that...

As Indians we have always been proud of how our ancestors were way ahead of their times, giving the world some revolutionary concepts and inventions. So ‘Aryabhatta gave the world the number 0’ is often our trademark reply to India being called a backward and third world country in almost any movie. Taking this a bit further is Vibhu Puri’s Hawaizaada based on a theory that an Indian was the first to build an airplane before the Wright brothers did.
Marathi manoos Shivkar Talpade (Ayushman Khurana) is a disappointment to his father who has repeatedly failed fourth grade. His father finally has enough and throws him out when he is taken in by Shastri. Shastri (Mithun Chakraborty) is a scientist who is trying to decode the Vedas to find the answers to the making of numerous inventions which apparently our ancestors have hidden and makes Talpade his assistant. In between...

Hawaizaada is the story of Shivkar Bapuji Talpade, an unsung hero, a vedic scholar and an expert on Sanskrit literature. He is regarded as the great Indian scholar who not only sketched out but also built the first ever airplane in 1895, eight years before the Wright Brothers, the American duo who were originally credited for being pioneers in the field of aviation.

We are back with another look at what happened on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa! This week’s show opened with the international judge Maksim Chmerkovskiy dancing to the song ‘Criminal’ from Ra One. The audience really loved his performance, as it was the first time Maksim had danced solo on the show.
Host Ranvir, then tricked the contestants into a “pass the parcel” game, by throwing them a mirror ball and saying that whoever caught the ball, would go directly into the face-off. But judge Karan Johar used his “jhoothameter” and said that Ranvir was fooling around, the mirror ball would say who was safe from the eliminations.
This week’s theme was Made in India which meant the contestants would be performing on dance styles that originated from India.
Actor Ashish Sharma & his choreographer Shampa were the first to perform. They danced on the song ‘Har Kisi Ko Nahin Milta’ from the film Boss.

Check out the first look of Ayushmann Khurrana’s upcoming film Hawaizaada, previously titled as Bombay Fairytale. Directed by debutant Vibhu Puri and opposite Pallavi Sharda, the period film is a biopic of scientific Shivkar Bapuji Talpade, who is believed to have constructed and flown India’s first unmanned airplane in 1985, eight years before the Wright brothers.
It was the actress of Besharam who posted the still on Twitter along with the release date of the film, “Glimpse of Ayushmann Khurrana in his vintage Shivkar Talpade avatar for our upcoming film Hawaaizaada…Releasing Oct. 10!”
The picture shows Ayushmann as Shivkar Talpade while he observes one of his plane prototypes. As a source closed to the production explained, the scientist experimented with several types of planes until he succeeded to make one of them fly.

Mumbai, March 23: Indian-Australian actress Pallavi Sharda, who made her Bollywood debut with "Besharam", is happy being part of the Hindi filmdom and says the West doesn't look down upon the industry.
"I am extremely happy being part of Bollywood or being called a Hindi film actress. As far as West is concerned, they enjoy Bollywood and they don't look down upon Bollywood," Pallavi told Ians.
"Bollywood is cool in the West, especially the song and dance. But yes, sometimes-western filmmakers find it cliched and less crafted. I come from western school and I have been raised in the west, so I think every cinema has.

Mumbai, March 7: Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor, who plays Sonam Kapoor's father in debutant director Nupur Asthana's "Bewakoofiyaan" says he isn't likely to be seen in any "stereotypical" fatherly roles as he finds them "too unexciting".
"If you notice, I didn't play my own son's (Ranbir) father in 'Besharam'. It is not vanity, just sanity. I can't do the stereotypical father's role. They don't challenge me as an actor at all. So I avoid doing father's roles. It's just too unexciting," said the 61-year-old.
"To my good fortune I am getting roles that do not require me to be the so-called father," he added.

Last Sunday, Emraan Hashmi along with Mahesh Bhatt entertained us with a brilliant talk on the couch of Koffee with Karan Season 4, and this weekend KJo brought old guests Shahid Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha back for some more filmy talk. Read on to know what they think about relationships, success and more!
Sonakshi Sinha surely didn’t change her otherwise set image of being the ‘goody two shoes’ and you could really see Karan Johar trying to bring something out of her. She stuck to her ‘I go to the set on time, shoot and then go back home’ words. She found some new respect when she did wonders as Paakhi in Lootera, about which she said,” I am so glad that Vikramaditya gave me Paakhi, a character that was so dear to him.

Mumbai, Jan 22: Actress Pallavi Sharda, a trained Bharatnatyam dancer, is eager to shake a leg in a dance number.
The actress, who made her Bollywood debut with "Besharam", feels that the word "item number" sounds "negative" and added: "There are so many actresses who are doing some beautiful songs as guest dancers. I would love to do an interesting dance number. In fact, it's the one thing that I am craving for."
"Besharam" was Abhinav Kashyap's second directorial venture after Salman Khan starrer super hit "Dabangg", but he failed to create the same magic with Ranbir Kapoor. The romantic-comedy turned turtle at the.

2013 has had some fantastic films from the passionate Ram-Leela to the dramatic Kai Po Che. There have of course been some majorly disappointing films. These either had fantastic trailers which showed promised of exciting cinema, or boasted star casts that would surely choose only the best of scripts. Take a look at the over-hyped films that brought nothing but heart-breaking sadness to the filmi buffs globally.
10. Bullet Raja
We were expecting a little bit of action, a little bit of comedy and little bit of romance. Tigmanshu Dhulia, director of the fantastic Paan Singh Tomar, sadly lets us down with this directorial venture. The dialogues are disappointing, the music is forgettable and draws the film out unnecessarily and the story is quite unbelievable. Sorry Saif, better luck next time.

2013 was an exciting year for BollySpice, with our reporters speaking to many of your favourite Bollywood stars across the world, from New York, to London, to Mumbai and beyond. We thought we should do a quick recap of some of our interviews from 2013 to see in the new year, with our promise to bring you bigger and better interviews in 2014. So here’s five of our favourites, in no particular order – as they were all great!
Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra
We met Hrithik and Priyanka in London for their promotions of Krrish 3. Both the stars were in a particularly hyperactive mood and were literally bouncing off one another! What made the interview though was a lesson from them in ‘Bro-codes’, where they refused to give in to our challenges of pitting Krrish the superhero against other contemporary superheros and instead gave us the virtues of the bro-code and...

The year 2013 wasn’t without its awful dreck, unlistenable songs, and dreadfully earnest star sons trying their hand at acting. It was also the year where trumpeting your own horn (looking at you Mr Sajid Khan!) proved to an ironically bad choice, promotion tours became exhaustively boring, and albums that made our ears bleed. There were many terrible films and debuts that made us cringe, and shake our fists at the wasted potential. Here once again are the Bollywood Razzies of 2013.
Awful Actress – Pallavi Sharda
It was quite astonishing that Sharda managed to bodge up a dream debut with Ranbir Kapoor in Besharam. While the film was hyped to be a rollicking comedy, Sharda was picked out from the crop of Bollywood actresses for Abhinav Kashyap’s film away from Dabangg mania. Sharda looked completely uncomfortable in her big role, where the three Kapoors tried to salvage the crumbling story and bad writing.

The year in song in 2013 certainly was a treat for Hindi music fans. With songs ranging to straight-up classical influences, to songs with a Southern tinge plus the new grooves that hit high notes of hard rock, dub step, hip-hop, and punk-rock there was something for everyone. 2013 had some wonderful musical moments and they were not all on the big screen. This year we thought we would change it up a bit and not only highlight the best songs of the movies, we also wanted to shine the light on some of the brilliant performances that took place on MTV’s Coke Studio and MTV Unplugged. So take a dekho at our list of the 50 best songs of 2013.

Due to many variations in the story of what happened on that particular night, misinformation and incorrectly influenced sources are tarnishing Ranbir’s reputation in front of fans, non-fans and other audiences. We are not blind fans who’ll support our favourite actor, no matter what. And while taking the journalist’s camera might have been a slightly harsh expression of Ranbir’s disapproval, we have sufficient reasons to believe it was not entirely unjustified.

"I wanted a heroine who could give us bulk dates and I know for a fact that all the established actresses are extremely busy, and therefore, I roped in Pallavi. Moreover, when I met her, I liked her confidence and eventually signed her on," Menon told Ians.
Pallavi, who had earlier starred in films such as "My Name is Khan" and "Dus Tola", has already shot for nearly two weeks for the film, which was launched recently.

After several box-office hits, Ranbir Kapoor certainly was on a role but then he had to face one of his films flopping at the box office. Despite the fact his latest film was not the success that was expected, the actor does not regret doing Besharam.
“I don’t regret doing the film. All films can’t be hit. My first film Saawariya was also a flop. There is no hit formula. I don’t know if there is a hit formula”, he said at a Philips event. Instead, Kapoor prefers to stay positive and values the experience of working with his parents and director Abhinav Kashiap. As he added, “I have done mistakes and try and learn from it. I have seen success, failure both and wherever I am today professionally is because of my success and failure.”
Kapoor’s next project is Bombay Velvet, where he plays the role of a street-fighter.
