'Calendar Girls' based on Deepika and Vijay mallya relations - Page 2

Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar said that he was inspired by Deepika Padukone and business tycoon Vijay Mallya for his upcoming film Calendar Girls.

At the trailer launch of Calendar Girls, Mr Bhandarkar said, "We have taken inspiration from a lot of people like Vijay Mallya, who launches a calendar every year. I share a good relationship with him. Deepika Padukone, who herself was a calendar girl, also inspired me for this film."

Mr Bhandarkar is known for his films such as Fashion and Corporate.

"When I flipped the pages of the calendar launched by Mr Mallya, I was intrigued to know more about them and how it gives them a platform to get noticed. I did speak to Vijay and told him that I am making a film like this. I also plan to show him the film," he added.

Calendar Girls revolves around models who gain popularity after featuring in famous calendars. (Also Read: Madhur Bhandarkar's Halfway Through With Calendar Girls' Shooting )

"The film is 75 per cent based on real life and 25 per cent fiction. We have shown what happens in the life of calendar girls. What options they choose ahead for their career, the struggles they go through and how their life changes," he added.

Calendar Girls is scheduled to release on September 25

This is his interview. Did he mentioned anythg abt Deepika and Malliya relationship?This movie is not abt deepika. media twists things like always! 🥱

Lol. 😆 Deepu and sid mal were pretty serious I thought. Wonder why they dint last long.

Just like he said Heroine was based on Deepika, Kangana, Katrina's story. He's obsession with deepika is unbelievable

Dang, her cleavage has gone places...😉😆

Despo Madhur using Deepika to promote his B grade film! Or is it a rival's PR?😛😛

Waise Katrina, Nargis, Angela, Lisa..all were calender girls...why write cheap things about DP? 🤪

desperate call for desperate majors. He used Deepika, Kangana, Katrina's name till the end of Heroine promotions but film tanked at the box office. Now he's using dp once again, the film looks like a B-grade film and it should tank as well😆

If this was being made in 2009 when Madhur was still a big name, it would have surely helped the film. Right now though, Madhur is clutching at straws. This is old news and he's now a has been known for making the same type of films on all professions (one girl against the world in fashion, business world, bollywood...you get the picture). 😆Still think, Chandi Bar is one of the best films to come out of BW though...pity what happened to MB after that.
