Shahrukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma; all set to rock the cinema together
The king of romance Shahrukh Khan is all set to romance Bollywood’s most beautiful woman, Katrina Kaif in Yash Chopra’s untitled flick, which also has Anushka Sharma, playing a pivotal role. Yashji is back to direction after seven long years.
The pictures from the sets of the film is enough to guess the amount of romance in the film. The fact that it’s a Yash Chopra film, and SRK, the romantic king playing the lead, says it all.
Yash ji proudly says, “Everyone knows that when I make a movie, Shahrukh will be involved with it. He is like family to YRF and I have always regarded him as one of my own.”
Yash ji also has an important thing to say about the film, “This is a film which is classic in its look but contemporary in its language. A film which I’m making on one simple faith… the love that my audiences have given to me over the years. They have tolerated my indulgences for the past 50 years, I’m sure they will indulge me one more time.”
The movie is scheduled for a Diwali 2012 release.

John Abraham to turn Producer and Director
It’s been nine years since John Abraham made a sizzling debut in Jism (2003). And now the model-turned-actor, who has an MBA degree, is keen to build himself as an “honest, credible, commercially viable” brand with three verticals: actor, producer and director.
And, maybe even scriptwriter. His role model is Farhan Akhtar who started out as a writer-lyricist, before moving to producing, directing, acting and singing in movies. Today, he balances all his roles.
“Acting will always be my focus, and the big-budget films that define John Abraham such as Housefull 2, Race 2 and Dostana 2 will keep coming. But I also want to make commercial, entertaining movies that reflect my ideology. I want all the verticals to co-exist in a revenue model that benefits my studio and the paying public, ” he says.
John’s been working closely with Sanjay Gupta on Shootout At Wadala, which went on the floors on Thursday. For now, the actor has been reading up on Manya Surve and meeting those who knew the late gangster.
He’s also been brainstorming with Shoojit Sircar on Vicky Donor, JA Entertainment Pvt Ltd’s maiden production that opens on May 11. In September, his second production, Jaffna will kick off.
Kiran Rao thinking to open art house cinema
Filmmaker Kiran Rao says she is keen to open an art-house cinema where film lovers can enjoy off-beat movies.
“It’s a dream of mine. I have always wanted to have a cultural centre where people can have a community of artists. Basically, I have always wanted an art-house cinema, where we can show films that are not necessarily the current offerings on circuit or commercial,” she says.
Currently away from work, Kiran confirms she’ll start working on a script soon. She became a mother to son Azaad in December last year, and insists she is not a perfect mother yet.
“But I certainly try. Every mother does what is best for her child because it’s a joy and a daily learning experience,” the 38-year-old says.
Saif-Kareena wedding delayed to 2013
For some time now, their wedding date has been the most discussed topic in Bollywood. And even though Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor remain tight-lipped, speculations refuse to die down. Now, industry insiders close to the couple suggest that their D-Day might shift to Valentine’s Day next year.
“Nothing is confirmed right now. Both of them are still pondering over the possibility of getting hitched next year. Besides Agent Vinod, their hands are full with a lot of work in 2012. They are still discussing details with each other and their family members. Valentine’s Day 2013 is an option for them,” says an insider.
Rumours doing the rounds suggest that Saif and Kareena will get engaged on February 10, and that they plan to marry a week after the release of their spy thriller, Agent Vinod. But there has been no official confirmation from either Saif or Kareena till date.
“If they get married next year, they will be able to focus on the wedding easily. Right now, Kareena is promoting Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, while Saif’s energy is completely focused on Agent Vinod. The final call to get married will be taken soon,” adds the insider.
Kareena is set to start the second schedule of Madhur Bhandarkar’s Heroine soon, likely to be followed by Rohit Shetty’s Chennai Express and Ekta Kapoor’s Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai 2. After Agent Vinod, Saif will get busy with his home productions Cocktail (with Deepika Padukone) and Go Goa Gone, besides Abbas Mustan’s Race 2.
Although Kareena and her beau refuse to comment on the speculations, Saif had said a week ago, “Marriage is a question that I won’t answer until I am done with the release of Agent Vinod. We are focusing completely on the film right now.”
