Watch Akshay and Sonakshi in 3D

"Shirish Kunder has given himself as many as nine months for the post production of Joker that would involve inclusion of VFX as well as getting the 3D effects bang on. Yes, this film too is basically going through a conversion, just as was the case in Ra.One and Don 2, but there is a difference. Decision to convert them into 3D for both the Shahrukh Khan starers was taken very late in the day; in fact much after they had been shot. On the other hand, Joker was announced as a 3D film since Shirish along with the film's lead and co-producer, Akshay Kumar, wanted that from the start", says a senior crew member.

This means that each and every frame of Joker was designed in such a manner that during the post production, the conversion from 2D into 3D brings in the right results. Those in the technical know-how of 3D would agree that for the best effects on the big screen, every shot should have a certain depth to it. While Ra.One and Don 2 didn't necessarily have this luxury around the story boarding for 3D since the film had already been shot in a conventional manner, Shirish went through each and every frame and designed it well in advance so that he could play around with technical wizardry for the best 3D effects.

Says Shirish who has closely observed all major 3D movies released this year, including Bollywood's own Ra.One, Don 2 as well as Haunted, "I shoot with wide angle lenses with full depth of field. This means that in every frame you can see full details for as long as your vision goes. Only if you capture full depth of field can you create various layers for 3D."

He does add that while he is being aided by 3D technology this time around, that's also his conventional way of shooting, case in point being his debut film Jaan-E-Mann where especially his well choreographed and pictured song, 'Humko Maloom Hai', was noticed for this very aspect. "Yes, that's my normal shooting style which also happens to be very 3D friendly", he says, "I had shot Jaan-E-Mann also in wide angle which allowed me to capture scale and grandeur. In case of Joker, the visuals have only grown bigger."

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. ...
