Renewing Yahoo

Ken Ghosh's Yahoo is slowly getting back on its feet

After fielding a lot of trouble and controversies, Ken Ghosh's Yahoo (working title) is finally back on track and will resume shoot from May 1. Now starring Genelia D'Souza (remember how Jiah Khan was chucked out?) and Shahid Kapur, UTV has taken Yahoo under its wings, our source informs. "Ken Ghosh," our source adds, "will only direct the film now. Also, Shahid and choreographer Ahmed Khan are working on the film with renewed efforts."

"Yahoo is under severe budget constraints and top it with the fact that several portions will have to be reshot due to replacement of their lead actress only makes matters more difficult. But yes, since Shahid and Ahmed are taking extra efforts, there is no reason why the extra help to Yahoo will not pay dividends," our source adds.

Ken Ghosh

But why are Shahid and Ahmed taking the extra trouble? "Ken and Ahmed have been friends since their school days. Ken was Ahmed's senior and that explains Ahmed's role. As for Shahid, he's the lead of the film and obviously wants it to do well. Both will pitch in with inputs that will help wrap up the shoot as quickly as possible."

UTV's Production head Alpana says "No changes have been done with respect to Yahoo except that Jiah is no longer a part of the film."

However, Ken Ghosh didn't deny that he would be having longer shifts to complete the film quickly. He says, "We are shooting 55 eight-hour shifts in 35 days including all reshoots, which is very cool. And I was never really producing Yahoo. My company is still the line producer."

I sincerely believe and I dont care how many disagree but a major propotion of the films success really depends on the Name.

Yahoo is just a failure from the word go...dont care who's in it.

LOL I agree with you. I really dont want them to use the name "Yahoo" 👎🏼
They should come up with a better name since it's a dance based film, and they will def need a better name to generate curiousity.

And Divya, we know Shahid can dance his butt off..and it would be a treat to see him dancing in "Yahoo," and he has teamed up with JT's choreographer! Also, Shahid and Gen will look smashing together

I think because of the IPL, strike and Yahoo's re-shooting...nobody knows when it'll release. It'll be sometime this year though

This is completely unrelated. But am I the only one, who thinks of Yahoo (that chocolate soda) from Hey Arnold when they hear the title of this movie? It only seems like bad signs are coming from this project.
