THE ANTI – HERO IS BACK!

Be it Maya Bhai from SHOOTOUT AT LOKHANDWALA, gangster – turned -politician Pratap Ravi in RAKHT CHARITRA, gangster Chandu in COMPANY or the evil Kaal in the superhero franchise KRRISH 3, Vivek Oberoi has always managed to pull off grey characters with élan. Making bad look so good, the versatile actor is back in the grey zone this year as he will be portraying 2 distinct characters, something that nobody has seen before. Vivek will be seen locking horns with Ajith Kumar in the biggest Tamil film this year, VIVEGAM and will also be making his debut on the digital platform with his much – awaited web series, Excel Entertainment’s POWER PLAY to be released globally on Amazon, in which he plays the pivotal character. The kind of response & reactions Vivek has received for anti – hero roles has been unprecedented. While he enjoys doing comedies as well, he finds negative characters or roles with grey shades more challenging that are drastically different from the kind of person he is in real life.

Music Composer – Singer – Wild Life Activist Abhishek Ray was on cloud 9 recently as his film Wedding Anniversary finally saw the light of the day as it had lightened up the aisles & the darkened auditorium as it got released on 24th Feb, 201z and he had composed all the songs for the film, which is a rare feat in recent times.

Music Composer Abhishek Ray is known more for his soundtrack of films like Paan Singh Tomar, Saheb Biwi & Gangster, I Am Kalaam, Yeh Saali Zindagi, Welcome Back and many, many more.

Music Composer Abhishek Ray just got the “Best Non – Film Song Award Of The Year” for his song “Aye jahaan Aasmaan” sung by Sonu Nigam & Shreya Ghoshal & written by Nusrat Badr.

Music Composer Abhishek Ray made his melodious debut when he was in school from none. Other than the legendary poet Gulzar in their famous collaborative effort Udaas Paani. In fact the 2nd nomination this year at Mirchi Awards was also for his song “Yeh Dil” written by Gulzar & sung by Hariharan.

Music Composer Abhishek Ray thanked his family, his mentor Gulzar Sahab, his friends Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal and mother nature after getting this award.

Arguably one of the most underplayed role in film making would be that of a casting director but not many know it’s perfect casting that actually brings a film together. Ever wondered what would Chak De! India look like if it wasn’t for Shah Rukh Khan playing Kabir Khan or what would Kuch Kuch Hota Hai look like if Twinkle Khanna had done Rani Mukerjee’s part Tina, as Karan Johar so rightly wanted? Weird right? It’s all the magic of casting that brings the right people in the right role.

And while the Hindi cinema buffs might only know of Mukesh Chhabra for casting, there’s another man who’s done some brilliant job at getting the right people for the right roles and that’s Casting Director Dinesh Sudarshan Soi.

Having done casting in more than 200 films (Bollywood, Pollywood, Marathi & South), Dinesh Soi just completed producer Pradeep Rangwani’s Red Affair as a project whose casting comprises of Arbaaz Khan, Manjari Fadnis, Ashmit Patel, Maheck Chahal, Mukul Dev and many other noticeable characters.

Hailing from the solid educational background, Dinesh owes his journey in film industry to destiny. “I was an academically inclined man and as cliched as it may sound, films happened luck by chance,” says Dinesh who’s journey from Mohali to Mumbai happened incidentally & interestingly.

Being academically ACCA (I) UK, M.Com from Panjab University, and MBA in Marketing from Symbiosis Pune, he was a Professor at Mohali, Punjab. He casually participated in Mr. North India contest in 2007 and won it, followed by a number of good assignments. Being crazy for movies since his childhood, opportunity had started knocking his door now.

Lights, Camera & Action had always attracted him, he took a call and moved to Mumbai in 2008. Once a Professor, switched on to actor and played the role of Jugnu in Star Plus’ popular show Mann Ki Aawaz Pratigya. But soon realizing that he could achieve much more by becoming a Casting Director, formed his own Casting Company at a very young age.

VIJENDER SINGH WANTS SONU SOOD FOR HIS BIOPIC!

At a recent sports award ceremony, Vijender said, “Sonu Sood is one of the fittest actors. We’ve seen actors playing boxers before but it’s not easy to pull it off. Sonu is apt to play me on the big screen because he’s fit & flexible.”

WHEN RONIT ROY GOT A CHANCE TO INDULGE HIS PHOTOGRAPHY OBSESSION ON ‘SARKAR 3’ SETS!

Ronit Roy who will be seen in SARKAR 3, sharing screen space with Amitabh Bachchan for the 1st time, got to unleash his inner mobile photographer on the sets we hear! The actor apparently loves clicking candid pictures of his co – stars, and spent much of his free time between shots clicking unusual pictures of Amitabh Bachchan, Amit Sadh and more, from all sorts of angles! As seen in these quirky on the set images, Ronit took many clicks on his unsuspecting co – stars on his personal phone and also indulged in a selfie with Mr Bachchan himself! Says Ronit, “I was very taken in by the set design which transported me to an era gone by. It was quite surreal. Add to that the presence of Mr. Amitabh Bachchan in deep thought. It was quite magical so i wanted to capture those moments for myself to remind me of this when my memory starts failing me!” Well with such a stellar ensemble cast coming together for a most popular franchise, no wonder the actors want to record each & every moment of it!!

WHY DARSHAN KUMAAR HAD TO MEET A PSYCHOLOGIST.

Not all love stories are simple, and MIRZA JUULIET, certainly isn’t. In fact, lead actor Darshan Kumaar recently admitted that he needed to speak to a psychologist to get into the mind of his character. When we asked Darshan about his Mirza, he stated, “Mirza is a complex character, he has been through a lot very early in life. He has spent his earlier years of life serving jail term for avenging his parents death, he has killed since but he yearns to live a normal life. For someone like me, it was very difficult to understand how could someone with such a tainted past live a normal life. I actually met a psychologist friend of mind to get my head around the character.”“For me, it doesn’t matter if I am merely standing in the frame, I need to be in character, I need to become the character. I have to give it my all. And for someone like Mirza, I owed it to him to do justice to his character.” The film stars
Darshan Kumaar, Pia Bajpai, Chandan Roy Sanyal & Priyanshu Chatterjee alongside Swanand Kirkire. Directed by Rajesh Ram Singh, the film releases on 7th Apr, 2017.
