Farhan Akhtar and Hrithik Roshan in "Running With The Bulls"

Farhan Akhtar and Hrithik Roshan in
Farhan Akhtar and Hrithik Roshan's roles in Zoya Akhtar’s Running With The Bulls will offer them something new.

Farhan Akhtar’s character Karthik in KCK was that of an introverted loner, while Hrithik plays a solitary paraplegic in Guzaarish. They have prepared intensely for their roles, with Hrithik gaining weight and moving around in a wheelchair and Farhan shutting himself from the world for almost a month. But they don’t have to do anything like that for Zoya Akhtar’s Running With The Bulls.

Zoya Akhtar’s film will be shot in Spain and will help the actors live it up. The film is about male bonding, ala Dil Chahta Hai. It’s a fun-filled road film about male bonding. Abhay Deol plays the third best friend. While Hrithik and Farhan are buddies, having worked together on Lakshya, Farhan wants to hang out with Abhay so that the camaraderie in the film is natural.

Farhan Akhtar says, ‘I think I am destined to return to male bonding films as an actor and filmmaker. I am looking forward to Zoya Akhtar’s film because it is going to be fun and spontaneous. I don’t need to prepare much for it except for hanging out with Abhay and Hrithik before we head to Spain. Hrithik and I haven’t hung out in a while, and Abhay is somebody I need to get to know. This film feels a little like Rock On! because that was also about friendship and it obviously takes me back to my Dil Chahta Hai days.’

The shooting for the film begins in Spain in April and will be completed in about 4-5 months, as Farhan Akhtar starts shooting for Don 2 in September this year.

Wow!!

Eagerly waiting for this release. Farhan Akhtar is definitely a superb actor. His previous performances have been great in all the movies. I would only want to watch the movie ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’ for him.

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. ...

Shahid Kapoor: I'm waiting for someone special

Bollywood’s man with lightening in his feet, Shahid Kapoor seems pretty chilled out and unfazed by controversies in real life. In town to shoot for an untitled film opposite Anushka Sharma, Shahid seems very comfortable in his skin. While he’s reluctant to discuss about his private life or his rumoured amours with Priyanka Chopra, Vidya Balan and Sania Mirza, the teen heartthrob says he’s “learnt to take all the rumours with a pinch of salt” and claims he’s just a “regular” young guy after pack-up. Excerpts from an exclusive interview: Kaminey and Dil Bole Hadippa... are set to hit the screens. Yeah. Their release dates are pretty close to each other. Kaminey will hit the screens this month, while Dil Bole Hadippa is slated for a September release. Both are very different films and I’m excited as well as a little nervous. The levels of expectations increase after your previous films have done well at the BO. Jab We Met was a turning point in my career. After Vivaah, I sat home for six ...

Aamir Khan: I love Sachin Tendulkar's intensity

What is amazing about Sachin Tendulkar is that for 20 years he has been able to maintain a level. There has been no dip in his abilities, his application or his passion for the game. I would say very few people could last this long. I've played cricket and believe me, you can't get out of bed for one week after one gruelling match. I saw him for the first time in 1988 when I was shooting at the Brabourne Stadium and he wasn't playing for the Indian team yet. The team was practising at the nets and I was chatting with Kapil Dev, Dilip Vengsarkar and a few others. At a distance I could see this kid batting. I was surprised to see that he was middling the ball; he looked so small, and so young. I was zapped. I wondered who this little boy was, who was being allowed to practise at the nets with the Indian cricket team. So I asked Kapil and Vengsarkar, “Who's he? How come I don't know?” They told me he was a new guy called Sachin Tendulkar, who was being seriously consi...
