Akshay Pyikanka jodi back again in public show

Akshay Kumar and Priyanka Chopra, who had stopped working together in spite of doing successful films like "Aitraaz" and "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi", came together after a four-year gap for a show in Hong Kong.

Akshay and Priyanka performed together on stage Thursday for Christmas at the Convention Centre in Hong Kong for the show From Chandni Chowk To Hong Kong.

For reasons best known to them, Akshay and Priyanka, who came together for the first time in "Andaaz", were never seen as a couple on screen after "Waqt - Race Against Time". So deep was the cleft between the pair that Suneel Darshan had to scrap an Akshay-Priyanka starrer after picturising a song with them.

"Yes, I performed on stage with Akshay Kumar in Hong Kong. It was great fun," Priyanka, who has delivered two hits in the row - "Fashion" and "Dostana" - told IANS. And what a rollicking show it was! Audiences have been craving to see the hit pair together for three years. Joining the pair was Bipasha Basu.

After Priyanka drifted away, Akshay tried to form a screen pair with Kareena Kapoor by doing some not so successful films like "Talaash", "Bewafaa" and "Tashan". When that didn't work too well, the actor turned to Katrina Kaif for professional sustenance.

Movie Review Gajini : Go to watch buddy its nice movie

Cast: Aamir Khan, Asin, Jiah Khan, Pradeep Rawat
Director: A.R. Murugadoss
Producer: Allu Aravind , Madhu Varma
Writer: A.R. Murugadoss
Music: A .R . Rahman
The Movie:

Ghajini, the Tamil version, has been a massive hit and so was its dubbed Telugu version. Will the Hindi adaptation live up to the humungous expectations? The hype is unmatched and you expect no less than a present-day masterpiece.

Ghajini is a revenge saga, one ingredient that has been the staple diet of Hindi films since time immemorial. It is a powerful film. It has the power to sweep you off your feet from the word 'go'. It has a riveting story, which has been told with flourish by director A.R. Murugadoss. And, of course, it has a knockout performance by Aamir Khan. If at all there's a shred of doubt whether Aamir is The Best in the business, all you've got to do is check out GHAJINI.

First things first! Ghajini is not MEMENTO. There're minor similarities, but Ghajini takes a completely different route to tell its story. Director A.R. Murugadoss tells this one differently. It starts off with what happens in the past, comes to the present-day, goes back in time again and returns to the contemporary again. This is a breathless, exciting story, heart-breaking and exhilarating at the same time.

Is it violent? It is, at times, but the violence here is justified. In fact, every time the protagonist bashes up the evil-doers, you clap and root for him. The climax is jaw-dropping -- dissimilar from the original, but it's an out of the world experience nonetheless.

Aamir Khan is suffering from acute short-term memory loss set off by the violent murder of his girlfriend Asin. He's got to work around this handicap, but with methodical and meticulous determination. Aamir etches a path of clues that lead him on his road.

To aid him in his quest, he carries around a sheaf of Polaroids and when he is really sure of a piece of information, he has it tattooed on his body, which stands in for the damaged part of his mind. His indelibly marked torso is the repository of his grief, his rage and his reason to go on living.

Director A.R. Murugadoss deserves brownie points for not just coming up with an interesting story, but also presenting it [refreshingly] differently. The storyteller balances the light moments and the ones demanding intensity with expertise. There's dum in every sequence. Even if the director has to depict violence, he doesn't resort to blood-n-gore or knives-swords-pistols for effect.

A.R. Rahman's music is top notch. At least three numbers have the unmistakable stamp of a genius -- 'Guzarish', 'Behka' and 'Kaise Mujhe'. Ravi Chandran's cinematography is stunning. The film bears a stylish look all through. The action sequences are brilliantly executed. The Hindi moviegoers haven't seen such scenes ever.

Asin is fabulous. To share the screen space with an actor of the stature of Aamir Khan and yet remain in your memory even after the show has ended is no cakewalk. She looks fresh and photogenic and acts her part brilliantly. Pradeep Rawat, the villain, is first-rate. Jiah Khan impresses, especially in the sequence when Aamir follows her to a shopping mall.

Aamir delivers his career-best performance. It's awe-inspiring and if more and more people adopt the 'Aamir look' or hit the gym, it would be courtesy the actor. As far as his acting is concerned, he's natural as the tycoon, but like a wounded, ferocious tiger when he goes on an avenging spree. Without doubt, it's a concentrated, layered performance. He acts with his entire being. His body movement, the details of his performance, everything rings true. He is both vulnerable and hard. The pain in his face when he can't remember, is palpable. It's not only the plot that carries GHAJINI. It's also the mood and the expression on Aamir's face that makes GHAJINI a treat.

On the whole, GHAJINI is a winner all the way. The film will set new records and has the merits to emerge one of the biggest Hits of all times. The weekend business should be historic, the Week 1 business should be unparalleled, the lifetime gross should be amongst the biggest of all times. In short, GHAJINI has 'Blockbuster' written all over it.

Anuska Sharma to do two more films with Yash Raj

Anushka Sharma was kept under wraps before her debut film with Shah Rukh Khan, Yash Raj Film’s Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, was released. Something tells us that even now, after the film has released, you won’t get to see much of her.

That’s because she is bound by a contract to do two more films with Yash Raj, who aren’t in a particular hurry to do that. There’s also talk that Anushka was kept away from the media for a tad longer than necessary. To this, Anushka is quick to defend her banner.

She says, “I was kept away from the media’s glare for a reason. I wanted to focus completely on my film. And it served the purpose.” “Yes, I’m under contract to do two more films with Yash Raj,” says Anushka. She also admits that the next film is not around the corner. “Adi (Aditya Chopra) and I were both busy with Rab Ne… Now they will have to decide what I’m doing next.

But I must say I’m itching to get back in front of the camera.” We point out to Anushka that she wasn’t presented with the finesse and sophistication associated with a typical Yashraj heroine. To this she says, “You are right. Even when girls are supposed to be simple, in a Yash Raj film she’s always glamorous.

I can always get into chiffon saris in my next Yash Raj film.” Anushka sure seems to be gung-ho about her next film, but what we aren’t sure about is whether Yash Raj Films feels the same way too.

Priyanka and sahid kapoor in yash raj kaminey gang

Priyanka Chopra has been around for a while but there are still a few firsts for the actress. It seems that the actress will be shooting for her first on-screen kiss in this movie, where she is paired opposite Shahid Kapur.

Kaminey which is directed by Vishal Bharadwaj, is scheduled for a release in March next year. The film has just completed a schedule in Mumbai. In the film, Priyanka plays a middlecalss Marathi girl, while Shahid plays a gambler, who cons people. His get up in the film is quite interesting as he sports long hair and stubble.

The look was quite secret and Shahid did steer clear of cameras so that he could keep his look under wraps for a while. Incidentally, the single Shahid and the supposedly single Priyanka (she says she is not seeing Harman), are believed to have become very close while shooting for this film. Incidentally, both actors also live in the same building in the suburbs. Priyanka seems to be flying high these days.

She is also believed to have been roped in by Yash Raj Films to do their next film, which will be directed by Jugal Hansraj. Uday Chopra will play the lead in this one.
