Rickshawala's deal with Ganpati
| |
| Mandira Bedi and Bharat Mehta |
Bharat Mehta, an auto rickshaw driver on the streets of Mumbai, saw himself on the Kursi Kismat Ki — the auto rickshawala special of the show Deal Ya No Deal.
Bharat, a highly energetic and high-spirited individual, he faces all the challenges in the show and battles out the game. During the game, he keeps the audiences alive with his sporadic chants of 'Ganapati bappa morya'.
He plans to repay his home loan and own his fully-furnished dream house with the prize money won on the show. And guess what… Ganpati Bappa did bestow him with a prize money of Rs 12,30,000 to fulfill his dreams.
Oh oh Dino
Salman was the first to do it.
He danced without shirt to Oh oh jaane jaana.
Saif did a topless follow-up in Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein, however, he didn't have the muscles then and was rather tubby.
Now we see Dino Morea dancing minus his shirt in Aksar as well as in Holiday.
Dino, we aren't complaining, but honestly, when you've seen the best do it, then everyone else simply fades in comparision.
Narnia music video

| Shaan in the The Chronicles of Narnia music video |
If you have seen the music video of the latest fantasy film, The Chronicles of Narnia, the one which has singer Shaan along with footage of the film — here is some dope.
The video has been conceptualised and directed by Mumbai-based ad filmmaker Imran Khan, who occasionally does a music video.
Shaan belts out the Shurwat track from his album and from what we have seen the music video gels completely with the film, including the snowfall.
Sohail's fight plan
During the shooting of Mr India, wherever Anil Kapoor went, he wore the topi and the shabby jacket from the film, which served as silent promotion of the film. It had really worked. And now decades later, Sohail Khan turned up at an event in the Fight Club topi. It's becoming a trend.
We noticed Amitabh wearing Abhishek's Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost cap in a scene in Ek Ajnabee, much after the film had come, gone and forgotten. Lets see if Sohail saves his cap too… We'll check on that two weeks after the release of Fight Club. No we aren't suggesting anything.
Let's get Filmy with these four
| |
| Chunky Pandey, Vinay Pathak, Sunil Grover and Purbi Joshi |
Sahara One Network is set to launch its first Hindi movie channel—Filmy on February 12, which claims to deliver movie content in an innovative format. And to do the needful it has grabbed a set of anchors, who will indulge in acts of buffoonery coupled with some filmi gossip.
The foursome includes Chunky Pandey, Vinay Pathak, Sunil Grover and Purbi Joshi. An insider informs, "Our anchors are an answer to Zoom's plastic dolls. In fact, our anchors will give the Laughter Challenge contestants a run for their money." Over to you, Pandey, Pathak, Grover and Joshi—it's time to prove your worth.
Abhijeet ko gussa kyon aaya?
Those who attended Sony's Aap Jaisa Koi night couldn't help but wonder why Abhijeet Sawant was looking grumpy towards the end of his performance.
The reason was because Indian Idol was called in late in the line up of singers, who came on the stage to sing. We heard Sawant checking with the organisers about letting Rahul Vaidya take the stage before him.
The maximum applause went to Vaidya, while Sawant failed to garner the much-needed enthusiasm from the crowd. We think Sawant could do by concentrating more on his vocal chords than cribbing. And while on cribbing, he should gather his attention to his recent mishap with hair straightening.
