Lyricist Kumaar does it in Golmaal way

Lyricist kumaar yet again comes with Golmaal again but this time he rather kept more simple than tricky. "Its always exciting working with Rohit Shetty. We both understand each other so well that i get immense freedom working for him. I have been fortunate to be part of the entire Golmaal series. But this time i thought to keep the songs as simple as a common man's daily routine. If u hear the songs you can feel its line of every person be it hum nahi sudhrenge or itna sannata or the title track. I didn't try anything different or intelligent. Sometimes i feel too much intelligence fades the innocence. "In this era where multiple composers and lyricist croon music for a movie. Kumaar is trending with multiple composers with one lyricist. Golmaal has multiple composers but kumaar is the solo lyricist. Talking about this the lyricist says,"Being solo lyricist always a bit more responsibility. Previously in the series i have worked with Vishal Shekhar and Pritam. But this time there were multiple composers so the excitement and fun was more. I enjoy working with new talents. But you need to adjust as the temperament and approach of each composer is different so you need to fit in it".

Speaking of marvel's first female villain Hela, played by Cate Blanchett, Chris Hemsworth has publicly said, "Cate’s Blanchett is just brilliant as Hela. She is one of the greatest actors that has ever been. I had ideas of what she might do but I was completely blindsided by the outcome. She just has this insane off-kilter attitude or look or kind of movement to her character."

 

Releasing on 3rd November, “Thor: Ragnarok” is directed by Taika Waititi and returns Chris Hemsworth starring as Thor and Tom Hiddleston reprising his role as Loki. They are joined by Cate Blanchett, Idris Elba, Jeff Goldblum, Tessa Thompson and Karl Urban, with Mark Ruffalo and Anthony Hopkins.

Blanchett took on the role of the fearsome Hela in which she becomes Marvel’s first on-screen female villain, and will also see her destroying Thor’s famous hammer, Mjölnir. Co-star Mark Ruffalo, who plays the Hulk, has said that Blanchett “plays the worst of the worst. [Hela is] so evil.” Looks like its chills on 3^rd November!

Tilda Swinton - The Chronicles of Narnia

Swinton has played the cold-hearted White Witch in a trilogy of Narnia films - and terrified generations of children in the process as the icy villainess.

Cruella De Vil- 101 Dalmations

 101 Dalmatians was based on a novel by the British writer Dodie Smith in which villainous Cruella de Vil (voiced in the film by Betty Lou Gerson) plans to skin puppies for a new fur coat. Cruella De Vil played by Glenn Close was portrayed to be a proper monster with an unhealthy pallor, emaciated body draped in an oversized fur coat and a thin face.

Konkona Sen Sharma

The actual ‘daayan’ of the movie was Konkona Sen Sharma – she sent right shivers up the audience’s spine as a witch disguised in a khadi sari-clad mysterious woman with kohl-lined eyes.

Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka Chopra plays a powerful, successful boss-lady who seduces her office junior with who she has a history – and tries all sorts of tricks to get him back, in ‘Aitraaz’. And she fits the bill perfectly as the sultry seductress. Her villainous performance had won her a number of awards and much praise from critics as well as audiences.

Bipasha Basu

The sizzling Bipasha Basu got her first nomination for a negative role for the cult hit 2003 movie ‘Jism’ and established Bipasha even more firmly in her Bollywood career.

Kajol

The very first woman to make the Filmfare list of actors commended for their negative role was Kajol for her role as a psychopathic killer in ‘Gupt’ – one of the best films of 1997.

Urmila Matondkar

Her acting in ‘Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya’ was nothing short of brilliant – an obsessed, jealous mistress who turns a stalker, with the tables turned on a man this time!

Hulk star Mark Ruffalo would love to do a Bollywood film but there’s a catch!

Hollywood actor Mark Ruffalo, who is most popular for his onscreen character the Hulk, will be seen reprising the role of Bruce Banner/the Hulk in the Taika Waititi’s directorial, Thor: Ragnarok.

When asked in a recent interview about making a debut in Bollywood, he admitted that he would love to be a part of the Hindi film industry however he said that there would be a slight problem. He confessed that he cannot sing and dance but he can do performance-oriented roles in Bollywood.

When asked if the perception of Bollywood cinema being only about song and dance has changed, Ruffalo said, “I saw a cool Bollywood film… A tough guy thing where there are rival gangs…’Scarface’ characters… more like gangster character. I look forward to seeing what more Indian cinema can come up with.” 

But would he like to be a part of one? “Why not? I can’t sing and dance very well, but I can do some of the straight roles,” he said.

When asked about what’s going to be exciting in the movie he said, “Thor: Ragnarok” will see the characters Thor and Hulk battling for the first time. Ruffalo says he has been waiting for this for the past six years. It was great to smash him (Thor). I have been waiting for six years to smash him… It was really fun. People always want to see Thor and Hulk fight and I’ve got to do it in this one.”

Marvel’s Thor: Ragnarok will hit theaters on 3rd November in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu in IMAX, 3D, 4DX and 2D formats.

Makers of Simran saddened by the groundless gossip around the film

Kangana Ranaut’s next release Simran which is set to release on 15th September has attracted a new rumour on the actress taking over the edit of the trailer for being unhappy by the first cut. The entire team who has been working hard on the film is very upset with the baseless rumours which are being made in a bad taste for the film. 

Director Hansal Mehta sharing his thoughts on these rumours said, "All this speculation is false, malicious and totally fabricated. I collaborate closely with my team and my actors are an integral part of that collaboration. It angers me that every time some malicious gossip has to be spread people meaninglessly drag Kangana into their stupid machinations. She is a valued friend, actor and collaborator. Period. I'm even more hurt that some malicious person chooses to drag my relationship with Vishal Bhardwaj into this malice. Vishal is one of my dearest friends and if I am making films today it is because of him. I would never say anything that could remotely even hurt or upset somebody I love so dearly and to whom I am so grateful.".

Bhushan Kumar says, "We are very saddened with this news. Her sitting on the edit table is completely false. We all work as a team and her feedback on every promo and plan is crucial. At the end, the film is a  director's vision and the film campaign will stay close to that only." 

Simran has garnered a lot of appreciation since the launch of the teaser of the film. A T-Series and Karma Features PVT. LTD. film,  Simran is directed by Hansal Mehta and produced by Bhushan Kumar, Shailesh R Singh, Krishan Kumar and Amit Agarwal. The film is set to release on 15th September 2017.

Bollywood Stars and the Emoji Expressions They Resemble The Most

With the upcoming animated movie; The Emoji Movie being around the corner to hit the theatres on 11th August, we thought of assigning the most famous and used emojis with famous Bollywood celebrities. Here’s a look at what the B-town emoji would look like if they would be cast in the movie.

1)      Shah Rukh Khan as the Cat Who Ate The Canary

Known for the famous smirk of his, no one could pull off this emoji better than him. Hence without any second thought, Shah Rukh Khan gets the title of the Cat who ate the Canary emoji.

2)      Alia Bhatt As Winning Smiley Of School Girl

Who else could we choose except the ever smiling and chirpy Alia as the Winning Smiley of School Girl?

Even the shape of their teeth is similar

3)      Anushka Sharma For The Epic Wink

After that famous Instagram post of Anushka Sharma, there is no one in the industry who can imitate the Epic Wink emoji better than her. So the title for the Epic Wink Emoji goes to Anushka Sharma. 

4)      Ranveer Singh And Arjun Kapoor For Man-To-Man Love

Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor have never hesitated away to show the love they have for each other in public. The most relevant couple who resembles the Man-to-Man Love is this duo.

5)      Ranbir Kapoor as The Winking Emoji

Making hearts melt with the wink of his, chocolate boy Ranbir Kapoor is the ideal match for the Winking Emoji. We think that the emoji came into existence because of him. 

The Emoji Movie co-stars James Corden, Steven Wright and Rob Riggle, along with Patrick Stewart who plays the Poop emoji.Directed by Tony Leondis and produced by Michelle Raimo, the film was scripted by Mike White and Eric Siegel.

To get an opportunity which is so creative is very evolving for an actor. It was liberating for me, as I explored a lot of untapped emotional areas and it was a journey of self-discovery. Especially since my director Shanker Raman is very generous, I confess that it was an enriching experience for me working on the sets of Gurgaon.”
