I read somewhere not so long ago that Battle for Bittora is being scripted and she said she was still doing it : I guess it will be their next venture after VDW.

At the time Fawad was attached to the project, he was uncomfortable doing certain intimate scenes so they had to rewritte the script to accomodate him ...

I've read BFB and since then I've been waiting it to go on floor. Sadly, I read the book with the image of Fawad as Zein.

Now, I can't think of anyone in this generation pulling the role except maybe Abday Deol but I don't think Rhea wants to work with him and he won't agree to it as well.

Well, wait and see!



There is just one single intimate scene in the book n that too the climax which can just be implied than shown. And the other kissing scene would be btw their teenage flashback n whoever plays those roles. so I dunno what he had issues with. It's best to make a movie with someone who is willing to go according to the script specially when it's an adaptation of a much loved book
I think Ranbir might make a cute Zain. Zain is supposed to be playful but classy and restrained. A bit like his role of Samar in Rajneeti but a lot more scrupulous
I don't like Abhay Deol much TBH so hope it's not him

Quote where I implied you didn't know what bad acting stands for.
If I wish to quote people to correct some facts then so be it. You kept on answering me and so I returned the politesse.
It's a forum! sincerity ? Yeah right.

I think he had issues with kissing scenes and I remember there were numerous : I maybe wrong since it's been quite a long time since I've read the book but I remember they would make out everytime they see each each others.

Now I do agree with you : I prefer a faithful adaptation.

As for Ranbir : I am not sure! I need to judje their chemistry in Dutt first. Their chemistry was good in Sawariya but not the best IMO. I prefered her with Farhan, Fawad and Abhay.

Now Sid and ARK fit the bill in terms of handsomeness but they both lack Zain's charm and charisma.

Farhan is too old ... I can't portray him as Zain.

Ranbir is probably too expensive for them.

Abhay is not on good terms with the production house.

Fawad was perfect 😭 .

Now, there is also Sumeet Vyas ... The love interest of Kareena in VDW.

I have a feeling he is going to be something...

1.Sonam and grooming lol. Sonam was a button from the get go. Hell even people who don't like her find her to be a beauty.
2.Sonam is still not an incapable actress like you seem to state and likewise with Salman

@ 1).What's there to mock if someone dnt find your fav pretty.. beauty is subjective and it's not a fact that Sonam is beautiful..there will be people who feel so and not feel so.
I nowhere stated sonam is not pretty..I said I dnt find her pretty.
@2).I no where stated sonam is a bad actress.i clearly said for me She is a bad performer.And you came and gave a statement saying sonam is not an incapable actress like I say..so that feels like you are implying I can't recognize bad acting.
Of course I will definitely reply back if someone unnecessary comes and points a finger at your view.
And since I have given you example, can you do the same and show me where did I say you can't recognize good acting since you started it first.

Your point n1 is amusing. You stated she was ugly even despite her grooming hence my answer
Your point 2 is ridiculous here :

Sonam is one of the most incapable actress I have come across and none of your reasoning is going to change that..emoting is the most important part of acting and she fails miserably there...and ofcourse it won't make sense to you until you put aside the bias and try to understand with a neutral mind

Saying someone I bad at something is the same thing as saying they are incapable.



I'll stop there because it's going in circles and you don't seem to understand what you write. Bye bye

If a day ever comes when KJo and entire film industry turn against Alia the way they turned against say Vivek Oberoi and she still wins approval from public in the form of a hit film and also critical appreciation then I will agree she has even an ounce of talent in her.
Otherwise repeat a lie ten thousand times...it becomes the truth. I have seen it happen very often. Nowhere more often than Bollywood. And what sort of standard she has as an actress was seen in extremely mediocre performances in her 'award winning' performances like Udta Punjab and Highway where she couldnt even get the basics right.
As for you...wont say much...as its your life and your choices...and we have seen how quickly they change depending on the situation for you.


I like Alia but what's holding me back from calling her a true "favorite" of mine is that she hasn't had to really hustle like her peers. I'm waiting for the day that she gets out of KJo's wings and sees how she handles her career from there


Per topic: Not surprised Sonam didn't get many offers after Neerja. Her acting wasn't exactly the greatest in the movie (Filmfare award notwithstanding😆)

Did they kiss on that terrace moment when they climbed high to get a phone signal? I'm wondering cz I'm pretty sure there wasn't many more cz they hardly got to share time alone due to the political war they waged.

Well Zain has to be very fair, cute but classy, charming and serious.

Let's hope we get a good choice whoever she ends up playing it with. Sonam is a great Jinni now that's for sure! I can just imagine her as Jinni in those AC less cars grumbling about having to wear a behenji type sari and always flashing that (the most special feature) humongous smile she is famous for!

Dutt isn't the greatest place to judge their chemistry Cz he looks more like Sanjay than himself. And recently he is looking more liek his earlier self in his appearances in Dec. Anywya if he likes the role maybe another PH can joint produce or something. Cz this can't be small budget anyway, there r many many crowd scenes - loads of rallies and funeral

Sid and ARK - yah they don't fit. I can't imagine them being Zain at all :((

But just maybe a not so known but can fit perfectly to the role surprise would be best cz I just love Maruti Zain! 😆

First of all I didn't call sonam ugly..my statement was I dnt find her pretty even after all the grooming and make up.and you quoted me and took fun of that statement, later I said I have seen some without make up pics of her where she was looking ugly..dnt twist the words and say I stated sonam is ugly despite grooming and make up.
There is a difference between stating your view with a disclaimer saying it's my pov and stating your view as a fact..I was doing the first all this while, while your statements were like the 2nd scenario..
Even I am not interested in continuing it(I wasn't even expecting any argument in the first place as I just wanted to show my displeasure towards sonams acting since someone opened a post on it)..I didn't knew IF is no different from any other SNS where we can't express our views freely without being questioned/mocked by their fans..
Anyway bye bye to you and Bollywood forum too.
(This is my last post here, won't be answering anymore)
