While shooting in Durban, the cast of NO PROBLEM actually faced real life problems. After a hard day of work director Aneez Bazmee decided to let the Star cast including Sanjay Dutt, Sunil Shetty, Akshaye khanna, Paresh Rawal, Sushmita Sen, Kangana Ranaut and Neetu Chandra take the evening off and take in the sites of Durban.

The girls just decided to take the day off and relax.

On the other hand Akshay Khanna and Paresh Rawal decide to visit the mall and just stroll around, which was very close to their hotel Royal Palms which is considered to be located in one of the safest areas in the city. Both of them were having a great time together, unable to foresee the trouble to come their way!

For the very first time they witnessed somebody getting mugged right in front of them in the mall! Everyone present at the location just stood still, shocked to see something that unexpected! Both the actors were terrified to witness such a horrific incident that took place right in front of them.

 Akshaye and Paresh then rushed back to their hotel and shared their experience with the entire cast and crew.

Kareena's dilemma

Khan’s fights are famous in Bollywood but Kareena recently got struck in a tricky Khan fight- Aamir Khan and Imran Khan.

Kareena Kapoor, who is teaming up with Aamir Khan and his nephew Imran Khan in two separate films respectively, was in a fix.

The first schedule of her film with Aamir, Reema Kagti's untitled project, was found to be clashing with the second schedule of her film SHORT TERM SHAADI with Imran that is being made by her close friend Karan Johar. But Kareena simply had to find time for Aamir, as she couldn't let this film go — not after audiences hailed their chemistry in the blockbuster 3 IDIOTS.

TOI has learned that Kareena picked up the phone and asked Karan to be her saviour. She asked the numero one filmmaker if he could rework her dates with Imran so that she could give those dates to Aamir instead. Ever the gentleman, Karan obliged. So now Aamir's first schedule with Kareena will roll ahead of Imran's second schedule with the actress.

Amisha Out of Rajdhani Express

Reportedly Amisha has developed cold feet after signing the movie RAJDHANI EXPRESS opposite Leander Paes and dumped the movie along with Paes.

She has no interest in acting in it anymore supposedly because it has many bold scenes in it. Apparently, the actress was not at all comfortable with doing some very crucial scenes in the film, as they were explicitly bold.

Most importantly, she was required to play a flirtatious woman, who would do just about anything for money. So, the role was too brash for Amisha’s comfort. Added to this, were a few steamy lovemaking scenes with Tennis star Leander Paes, which Amisha was apparently not at ease with. Hence, the actress has now walked out of the project.

Khabri reveals, “The film has many love making scenes including a bold one with Paes. Amisha has to show a lot of skin and her character is also unapologetic for all that she does in the film. Amisha also had lines with bold language.”

Her look in the film was designed in a manner to make her look forthright and vulgar, which Amisha was not happy about. So, when the director Ashok Kohli narrated the script to her she knew she was not cut out for it. Amisha spoke to the director, who understood her point of view and agreed to let her go,” adds khabri.

Sunil's Twitter friend

A few days ago, Sunil Shetty was in for a rude shock when he realized that somebody is interacting with B-town under his name on a social networking site.

The impostor has been relentless in his messages to a large number of people in the industry, some of who include top actors like Salman Khan and Amitabh Bachchan. Seeing Big B’s picture on a tractor in a section of the press, the impostor had the cheek to ask Big B, “Sir, how was your experience in the farms?”

The existence of this impostor came to Shetty’s notice when he interacted with one of Shetty’s friends in Los Angeles.

When contacted, Shetty said, “I wasn’t aware about this stupid person till three days ago, when a friend of mine called from the US. He mentioned about me tweeting and posting messages. I am not on any social networking site. I was shocked. I realized that someone is up to some mischief and misusing my name. This is completely unethical and immoral.”

Added Shetty, “I am immensely worried that this guy, whoever he is, may land people in tight spots by sending out some wrong and dangerous information under my name. If you recall, Kajol faced problems with Shiv Sena on tweeting some stuff, which she hadn’t.”

Rishi-KJo Problem

 

After the Koffee with Karan controversy, Rishi Kapoor puts Ayan Mukherjee in a tight spot. Make a film with your best buddy Ranbir, he says. But keep KJo out of the picture. Ayan Mukerjee, of Wake Up Sid fame, is in a bit of a fix. He has been asked to choose between his best friend Ranbir Kapoor and mentor Karan Johar.

Last week the Wake Up Sid director Ayan Mukerjee got a jolting wake-up call from his best-friend Ranbir Kapoor’s father Rishi Kapoor.

Ayan was all set to direct Ranbir for the second time for Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions. The two buddies, Ayan and Ranbir, were happily working on a second script that would take them beyond Wake Up Sid.

The  script had been locked in and the second Ranbir-Ayan collaboration  for Karan Johar was to go on the  floors in early 2011.

Then the fall-out between Rishi Kapoor and Karan Johar over remarks on Ranbir on Karan Koffee With Karan happened.

Now Ranbir and Ayan are caught in the crossfire. Rishi Kapoor called Ayan over and gave him an ultimatum. Ayan would have to choose between working with either Ranbir Kapoor or Karan Johar. Frightening choices for the painfully young director since he is equally close to both Ranbir and Karan and can’t think of making a film in the absence of either.

Rishi, still seething about Sonam Kapoor and Deepika Padukone’s comments on Ranbir on Koffee With Karan, confirms that he has indeed given Ayan the dreadful ultimatum. Says Rishi, “Ayan came over to discuss the matter with me. I clearly told him neither me nor Ranbir will work for any Dharma production. If Ayan still chooses to work with my son I’ve offered to get him another producer to produce his second film.”

This turn of events has greatly distressed both Ayan and Ranbir. Mutual friends are trying their utmost to bring about a rapprochement between the two families and end the deadlock over Ayan’s film, as well as debutant director Karan Malhotra’s Agneepath to be produced by Karan Johar, where Rishi is to play a pivotal part.

Say a source, “Neither Rishi nor Karan is the kind to hold grudges for too long. The cold war is bound to end. In the meanwhile Ayan and Ranbir are squirming in  the crossfire.”

Says Rishi, “We Kapoors are small people. Who are we to pick fights and have cold wars? Like Ranbir Karan apna hi bachcha hai. We’re all fond of him. But as far as I am concerned none of us Kapoors will work in a Dharma Production.”

Kat Got Competition

Katrina (Sheila) Kaif might be flying high with her latest item number

rocking the charts…but she’s sure going to face some tough competition from

another ‘hottie’ this Christmas eve.

We’re talking about Loveena – the Miss Toonpur!

‘Loveena’ is the most popular damsel in Toonpur – she’s hot, sexy and can

drive you crazy with her ‘adaas’. And she is a diehard romantic who falls in

love with Ajay Devgn the moment she sets her eyes on him! Loveena lives and

breathes romance, flirting openly with Ajay much to the chagrin of his wife

Kajol, who warns Ajay to stay away from Loveena.

So this 24th Dec, while on one hand we have Katrina Kaif dancing on ‘Sheila

Ki Jawani’ in Tees Mar Khan, there’s Loveena on the other side matching her

steps with Ajay Devgn on the groovy number ‘Let’s go to Toonpur’ from Kireet

Khurana’s Toonpur Ka Superrhero, India’s first live animation film.

no johny for neil

Neil is not going to play Johny again in his upcoming movie TERA KYA HOGA JOHNY, directed by Sudhir Mishra. Film is a thriller and also stars Kay Kay Menon and Soha Ali Khan. Neil is going to play the character of Parvez.

"It is a completely different story. A fresh one indeed where Neil is not Johny,” explains Sudhir.

Neil has been definitely impressing directors of tinsel town. Sudhir Mishra says, “I simply love how Neil has been coming of age in our industry. He has a brooding look to him and is an extremely talented actor who has got a right mix of films under his belt.”

That is true. Neil has definitely moving up in Bollywood. He is a kind of actor who loves to experiment and his characters have a variation. Sudhir further adds, “The varied roles only show that he is keen to experiment. Not only him, even Ranbir and other young and new actors are very mature in how they want to go forward with their career by constantly doing different things and not being typecast."

Now with admirers like Sudhir Mishra, who can stop Johny to do the impossible?

srk will do lio's role

Everybody is excited about new patch up between SRK and Vishal Bhardwaj. They were not on talking terms for years. Now they are planning to remake Hollywood blockbuster THE DEPARTED.

It is certain that SRK is going to do a film with Vishal but it is still not clear whether THE DEPARTED will be that film. If that happens then SRK will definitely play Di Caprio’s role.

SRk and Bhardwaj are very keen on a joint production. They have met several times for this. It could be said that both are eagrly waiting for this to happen. Off course, rights of this movie will have to be bought from Inernational production house. They are still searching for a big star to do Matt Damon’s role.

At present time, both of them are very busy with their tight schedule. Bhardwaj is currently busy with SAAT KHOON MAAF while SRK is currently shooting for RA.ONE and DON 2. None of them could give any time for possible remake till 2011.

Bhardwaj’s DREAM SEQUENCE is still going through rough patches. At the same time, he is gearing up for SAAT KHOON MAAF. He will meet SRK early next yeara only and then they will decide whether to do this film or not. But what is certain is the fact that both will work together, nonetheless.

There is one more thing. Both Salman and Aamir will be appearing as cops next year. Salman will do DABANGG sequel while Aamir will be seen in Reema Kagti’s film. It will be fun to see 3 khans doing police roles.
