Blast from the Past: Mani Ratnam’s Filmfare Interview from 2001
Today is Mani Ratnam’s birthday. So check out his Filmfare Interview from 2001 where he talks about Dil Se, Shah Rukh Khan, Madhavan, A. R. Rahman and Ilaiyaraaja.
Let’s Not Ask Her Screen Age – Rajeev Masand’s Gossip Column
Aditya Chopra has given Katrina Kaif three of her biggest films —Ek Tha Tiger (opposite Salman Khan, a bonafide blockbuster), Jab Tak Hai Jaan (opposite Shah Rukh Khan, another blockbuster), and the forthcoming Aamir Khan-vehicle Dhoom 3 (a surefire firecracker)—yet the actress turned down Gunday (which Aditya was reportedly keen that she star in) so she could work with Hrithik Roshan in Siddharth Anand’s Knight & Day remake, Bang Bang, instead.
Priyanka Chopra slipped into Gunday instead, earning brownie points with the producer. And Bang Bang, whose shooting dates originally clashed with Gunday, has been endlessly delayed, with filming only likely to start in June now.
Industry pundits are saying Katrina is no longer in Aditya’s ‘good books’, and she might have shot herself in the foot by turning down Gunday, where she would have been cast opposite younger heroes Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor. “Working so frequently with the Khans and with Hrithik, her ‘screen age’ has become considerably more than her real age. Unlike Deepika and Anushka, Katrina doesn’t have films opposite younger actors like Ranbir, Imran and Shahid. It wouldn’t have hurt to do a film that would bring down her screen age,” explains a respected film producer.
ContinueUnderrated and Forgotten: Anand Ashram (1977)
I pushed back watching this Shakti Samanta movie for quite some time, expecting it to be one of those moralistic tales laced with melodrama and strung together by a few good songs. Another big reason for my lack of enthusiasm was that this movie, unlike most other Shakti Samanta movies of that time, does not star Rajesh Khanna, and instead features Uttam Kumar, an actor I am not particularly fond of. As it turned out, as I finally got around to watching it, I was somewhat right about my pre-conceived notions. But having said that, the movie pleasantly surprised me on many counts, and in fact turned out to be quite a good watch. Also, as the narrative unfolded and moved towards the climax, similarities between its story and that of big ticket Karan Johar magnum opus Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham became quite apparent, which were rather interesting to discern. The coincidence that Rakesh Roshan plays the role that would be parallel to what his son Hrithik Roshan performs in the modern day magnum opus, was what triggered the connection in my mind.
A young doctor marries his childhood companion without his father’s consent. The father, a rich and respected landlord with a legacy he is very proud of, is terribly disappointed by his son’s decision to marry a girl from a different religious background.
I Like the VERSATILITY of SRK and Hrithik
Shah Rukh Khan has been in the industry for more than 20 years now and he has been giving HITs throughout his career. Most of his Hits is in Romantic genre and So media has tagged him the ‘King of Romance’. This has made many people believe that he is just keep on doing romantic movies which is far from truth. I am covering basically two points i.e. Versatility in choosing the type of movies and Versatility in acting. I am assuming that we know the meaning of versatility so that when I mention about the movies like Ra.One, Ashoka and Paheli you will not have any chance to say that they were Flops.
Versatility in choosing movies
I feel, among the present lot, SRK is the most versatile actor when it comes to choosing movies in different genres. He has done the role of a romantic hero who lures his heroines by his charm to a wicked man who can do anything for revenge of his father’s death. A mentally challenged man to a Superhero. Just look at his filmography and you can see the Diversity. Short film with Arundhati, KHKN, DDLJ, Baazigar, Dil se, PBDHH, Pardes, Hey Raam, Ashoka, Swades, Koyla, Baadshah, MNIK, OSO, CDI, Don, Ra.one.
Breaking News: Hrithik Roshan in Karan Malhotra’s Next titled Shuddhi

Karan Johar tweeted

Milind’s Reflections: Cinematic Thoughts on the Year gone by-2012!
It is imperative to note that the year that went by was not one of the best years for Cinema as such.Neither the Hindi film-makers,nor the southern ones,especially Tamil directors shell out something spectacularly brilliant.One also cannot dispute the fact that inspite of nothing extraordinary,there was some splash in the pan and some films did steal the hearts with their sheer honesty!
The year started with a remake of an old-cult classic called Agneepath that had given Bachchan a national award. Hrithik was nowhere near the persona of Bachchan [that inspite of being itself irritating at times was superlative in terms of the emphatic portrayal of a character betrayed by life]. Agneepath was never about raw power,nor was Scarface from which it was partially inspired.These two films were about characters and their confrontation with life amidst a debate between the duty to do good and the necessity to outdo evil with evil.The film did boast of a few superlative performances like Rishi Kapoor who was good in his role and did bring out the emotion with aplomb.Hrithik disappointed.Nothing new in it as SRK in his role as Vijay had put up a miserable performance compared to Bachchan’s legendary portrayal of the same!

Hrithik’s Unique Record in 40s
Hrithik has a unique record of doing only 18 films at the age of 39 years. I am not sure of any other actor having such low number of films when you are nearing past your expiry date as a star. Here is a look at his colleagues:
Aamir did 31 films at 40
SRK did 43 films at 40
Salman did 51 films at 40
Akshay did 66 films at 40
Ranbir has 10 films at the age of 30

Too Talented to Be a Heroine – Rajeev Masand’s Gossip Column
If Zoya Akhtar had her way, it wouldn’t have been Katrina Kaif who starred opposite Hrithik Roshan in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, but—hold your breath—Kalki Koechlin. Sources within Excel Productions reveal that the Luck By Chance director had screen-tested Kalki to play the big female part in her second film, but the idea was allegedly shot down by everyone—from her producer Ritesh Sidhwani to her close friends and associates.
Apparently everyone around her felt the Dev D star was too ‘arthouse’ to be cast opposite a heartthrob hero like Hrithik, and Zoya was persuaded to seek out a more ‘conventional’ actress. Not that she had issues with Katrina or was forced to cast her against her choice. Zoya reportedly zeroed in on Katrina once she’d been convinced the film needed a more ‘mainstream’ presence, and got along with the actress famously while shooting together.
When it came to casting the second female lead in the film, the director reportedly insisted on Kalki. For the role of the nagging, clingy girlfriend who crashes her fiancé’s bachelor holiday, Zoya couldn’t look beyond Kalki, who sportingly took the part even though the character doesn’t even get her guy in the end. Zoya has said this was the role she had most fun writing “because it has so much meat to it… it’s a more fun character to create”.
