Himesh goes the SRK way

http://im.rediff.com/movies/2007/nov/26look2.jpg
Karzzz and OSO are remakes of the Rishi Kapoor starrer Karzzz. And we find that more than just the inspiration for the film, the two main leads share quite a few similarities between them.

Himesh and Srk

Himesh Reshammiya is going all out to promote his film Karzzz. He is seen on reality shows like Sa Re Ga Ma Pa, he is also doing concerts for TV; he is giving live interviews to news and radio channels and giving print and TV interviews alongside. All this extra enthusiasm prior to a film's release is reminiscent of a super charged SRK who was all over the place during the promotion of Om Shanti Om.

Another thing SRK and Himesh have in common is losing weight for their respective movies. Both Himesh and SRK have followed a strict workout regime and a high protein diet of tandoori chicken and boiled food to attain a lean physique.

The songs of both OSO and Karzzz have become chartbusters. While Dard-e-disco, Ajab Si and Deewangi ruled the charts then, songs like Tandoori Nights, Lut Jaoon Karzzz pe and Hari Om are being played simultaneously on different radio and TV channels now.

There is one difference however.

While SRK went all out to promote his film, he held his premiere in London and stayed away from the press on the day of the release. But Karzzz will have three preview shows for the media. And the biggest surprise is that Himesh will attend all three. An official source close to Himesh says, "The preview for Karzzz will be held one day before the film releases. The film has turned out well and the preview is being postponed because Himesh is busy with his TV appearances right now. Three preview shows will be held in the suburbs in Mumbai and Himesh will personally attend all of them and greet the media present there."

OSO has become one of the biggest hits in Hindi cinema. We will discover the similarities in the fate of the two movies only after Friday, October 17th.

Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini

Bollywood Actress Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini In Dil Bole Hadippa Believe it or not, but the whole ‘bikini top ‘n’ skimpy shorts’ avatar in short — flaunting Rani Mukerji’s hot new bod wasn’t her idea. Not even the producer or director had anything to do with it. After she realised how much she had toned up (to play a male cricketer in Dil Bole Hadippa!), Rani just happened to discuss this idea with her designer friend Manish Malhotra. And from there on it was Manish’s game plan, after all, he’s transformed many a Bollywood girl in to glam queens. He suggested that it would be a pity to waste such a well-toned body by not showing it off. That’s how the idea of a special song was born. And is she looking hot? Talk about her ‘shapely’ success, and Rani says, “Believe me, I didn’t starve at all. I love my food, especially rice and sweets. There was no way I was giving up all that. So, I just worked out harder and was occasionally allowed my ‘cheat’ meals of rice, sweets, etc. ...

'I have no heartfelt desire to work with SRK’: Ranbir Kapoor

Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor maintains he never said he was desperate to share screen space with Shah Rukh Khan, but admitted he would love to work with the superstar if a good project came his way. “I had no such dil ki tamanna (heartfelt desire) to work with Shah Rukh sir. But I respect him a lot. I am a big fan of him,” Ranbir told reporters on the margins of the HT Leadership Summit here Friday. The 28-year-old, who was here with his father, evergreen star Rishi Kapoor, says a superstar’s presence in a project isn’t reason enough for him to accept it. “It’s not that if a superstar will be there in a film, I’ll agree to do it. But if I like a film, I like its script, I would be more than glad to do it,” he added. Nevertheless, Ranbir enjoys the attention he gets from the youth.
