Deepika-Emraan in Dharma-Balaji film…

Deepika Padukone is on a roll. After Bebo rejecting Ekta Kapoor – Karan Johar’s film, it is heard that Deepy has taken Kareena’s place and will be seen opposite Emraan Hashmi.
It is heard that Kareena said no to Ekta-Karan because she wasn’t comfortable working with Hashmi. However, Deepika, who is known to explore the Bollywood industry, has no problem working with Emraan.
A source close to the Balaji- Dharma project revealed, “It is strange Kareena was not happy with her role. She also told Ekta and Karan that her wedding would be around the same time they wanted to start shooting for the film. It’s a heroine-oriented film and Emraan is not the mainstay of the project. Deepika was so excited about her role that she agreed to it a couple of days before boarding the flight to Turkey, where she is currently shooting for Race 2.”
If sources are to be believed, it is said that after giving ample thought, Kareena decided to return to the project.  “It would have been unethical to show Deepika the door then. Moreover, they were unanimous in their opinion that Deepika could pull off the role as efficiently as Kareena would have,” added the source.
“The film is an urban take on love – it is quirky, edgy and dramatic,” says an insider.
The film will go on floors by end of this year.

Often referred to as the Asian Barbie Doll, Ayesha Carmela has been approached by different Indian movie producers to play a pivotal role in their respective movies.

The leading lady of the film is still under wraps but the makers promise it is a very strong and challenging role and that she will be one of the top five heroines of the industry.Jointly Produced by Bhushan Kumar and Milan Luthria, the film is slated to be a wholesome entertainer with a strong romantic angle appealing to all types of audiences, with music playing a significant role in the project.
For Bhushan Kumar, Head Honcho of T-Series, this yet to be titled project is the mogul's next big outing after the 2011 Salman Khan-Asin starrer READY, which was a smash hit at the box office. Directed by Milan Luthria, who has had a fantastic run recently with the success of ONCE UPON A TIME IN MUMBAI and THE DIRTY PICTURE, the film will be a character-driven story and an interesting mix of comedy, action, drama and romance creating larger-than-life cinema for movie lovers!
Says Bhushan Kumar, "After READY, my next film will be directed by Milan Luthria. As READY did 100 crore-plus business, we will continue to dabble in film production in a big way. We do not wish to make multiple films but would rather do a few good projects. No run-of-the-mill stuff for us. Milan's film for us is a family entertainer. I am excited. We are very happy to have him on board. We wanted someone who could make people laugh and Saif is perfect. The film will have action, adventure, suspense, comedy and music - in short; it's a complete masala film! We should start filming in 2013."
Milan who is riding high after two back to back super hits is too excited about the film. Quiz him on the superhero angle and Milan is quick to revert, "There are many superhero films out there but this isn't one of them. Ours is a masala entertainer with a twist, that's all that I'll say at this point. Saif and I had always been talking about reuniting again for another film after KACHCHE DHAAGE but somehow nothing materialized. This time he was shooting in Istanbul while I was in Prague. We were speaking to each other over the phone when he reminded me again of doing another film which is when I narrated a plot to him of whose character fit him to the T. He was very thrilled about it and agreed to do the film over the phone itself. It was instinctive for both of us and I'm sure the outcome will be something to watch out for."

Kim Kardashian in Bigg Boss 6?

Clamouring for the casting for Bigg Boss season 6 has begun in a big way. And if the casting agents are to be believed, American socialite, television reality star, model and actress Kim Kardashian is being wooed to come on the season 6 of the baap of all the reality shows… obviously for the oomph factor.
Apparently, the hitch is the price she is quoting, which is close to Rs 4.5 crore, as per the casting agents.
It may be recalled that the Bigg Boss season 4had welcomed the busty hottie, Baywatch star and Playboy cover girl Pamela Anderson, and in the last season it was the porn star Sunny Leone, who was shacked up with the reality show’s dirty dozen.

Agents say, that filling in the controversial slot after Sunny Leone, who had captivated the audience’s heart last year, would be tough. They want someone super sexy. And coordinators are pitching in aggressively. “We have approached many international celebrities for Bigg Boss but I can’t divulge the names right now,” says Deepak Dhar, Endemol India CEO.
 And probably if the deal with Kim works out, wonder what drama will unfold in the Bigg Boss kitchen since the reality star recently told her family on her reality show, Keeping Up With The KArdashians, that she finds Indian food “disgusting”. Her off-handed remark had drawn criticism throughout twitter sphere. “I think it’s good Kim Kardashian doesn’t like Indian food, because that means she won’t ever visit India and that in itself is a blessing,” one user wrote.
Wonder then, ab Indian khana kaise hazam hoga?
