Sujoy Ghosh makes Amitabh Bachchan dance and …’sing’!!

We have heard Amitabh Bachchan and loved his songs from movies like Silsila and Mukaddar Ka Sikandar. Well it’s not for the first time that Amitabh Bachchan will be seen dancing and singing on screen, but yes it will be the first time that Amitabh Bachchan will be lending his voice to an ad commercial.

Directed by Sujoy Ghosh who is also directing Amitabh Bachchan in the forthcoming film Aladin, Bachchan will be singing for Himani Navratna Oil commercial for which he is the brand ambassador.

The jingle has been composed by the versatile Vishal – Shekhar. And from what we hear, Amitabh too spent long hours in the studio with the musicians and provided his own inputs. Needless to say, the dance is going to be one to watch out for, especially since it’s been choreographed by the popular duo Bosco –Ceaser.

But so much is the magnetic pull of the legendary actor that when the team of Aladin learnt that Sujoy Ghosh was directing an ad with Bachchan, everyone from Vishal Shekhar, Sabu Cyril, Bosco Cesear to Sirsha Ray and Gabbana dropped all their tasks and reported to duty!!!

‘It was amazing because before I could even ask them, they were there. It was like going back to the sets of Aladin." Says Sujoy, who debuted with the movie ‘Jhankaar Beats’.

Speaking further about his experience about working with the Shehanshah, Sujoy elaborates, ”He has an incredible energy level that comes across on the screen as well. We had an amazing time shooting the ad with him.”

The ad film was conceptulised by Mudra Delhi and Produced by Boundscript.

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.
