Saif quits Vishal’s film

He accepted it graciously.

The grapevine now has it that the actor demanded some changes in Bhardwaj's script, which did not go down well with the director. On knowing this, Saif recently walked out of the film.

Earlier, when Shahid turned down the role, he told Vishal that he would prefer it if they worked together on Kaminey 2 instead. A source says, "During that time, Shahid also got a good offer to host a TV dance reality show, Dancing With Superstar .

However, he did not accept that either." Dreams is a story, which is narrated in a dream.

Added the source, "Though the plot resembles a bit with the recent Hollywood blockbuster Inception, Bhardwaj was ready with the script of Dreams much before Inception released." When Saif asked for changes, Bhardwaj put his foot down.

Adds the source, "Bhardwaj is a director who sticks to his script and vision. Often, many actors are apprehensive and nervous before signing up for a character in Bhardwaj's films.

Both Saif and Shahid took a long time to say 'yes' to Bhardwaj for Omkara as well as Kaminey. This time too, the role is very challenging but fruitful.

" All said and done, Saif's exit from Dreams is rather shocking, especially because both he and Bhardwaj were reportedly again warming up with one another. Says the source, "Saif was miffed with Bhardwaj for casting Shahid, who happens to be Kareena Kapoor's ex-boyfriend, for Kaminey.

Moreover, after Saif's Langda Tyaagi character was lauded in Omkara, the actor was hoping Bhardwaj would cast him in his next." When asked if he is indeed not doing Vishal's film for Ekta Kapoor, Saif said, "Yes I am not doing the film as of now.

" When asked if it was the script of the film that put him off, the actor chose not to reply. Bhardwaj remained unavailable for comment.

As of now, Dreams stars Deepika Padukone. Another heroine will soon be finalised.

Whether Bhardwaj will offer the hero's role to Shahid again or not, is the million-dollar question (less)

Milind Soman first to lose 'Khatron Ke Khiladi 3'

He is a national level swimmer and among the fittest of former supermodels in India, yet Milind Soman became the first contestant to be eliminated on action adventure show Fear Factor - Khatron Ke Khiladi 3, and that too due to an underwater stunt. Even at 44, Milind makes women go weak in the knees (more) He is a national level swimmer and among the fittest of former supermodels in India, yet Milind Soman became the first contestant to be eliminated on action adventure show Fear Factor - Khatron Ke Khiladi 3, and that too due to an underwater stunt. Even at 44, Milind makes women go weak in the knees owing to his Greek god looks and fit body.

However, he willingly backed out when he had to go underwater in Rio de Janeiro's Teresopolis Farm to unlock weights hung under a sheet of fire. Even though the stunt may not have been too tough, it was the chilling six degrees temperature of water that held Milind back - and caused his elimination.

"I should have tried more especially because it was a swimming stunt. I could have done it easily," he lamented after he lost.

Apart from Milind, funnyman Cyrus Broacha and former supermodel and actor Rahul Dev too had underperformed. However, they gave up much later than Milind, who withdrew from the stunt within less than three minutes.

The third season of Fear Factor -Khatron Ke Khiladi went on air on Monday with Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra as the new host. The 28-year-old actress sports a grungy look in the show, and seems to be trying a bit too hard to throw attitude to match up to action hero Akshay Kumar, who had hosted the past two seasons of the deadly show.

But her softness came through the tension for the safety of the 13 contestants on the show. But if sources are to be believed, she is supposed to be quite a whip-wielding dictator in Rio de Janeiro where all the stunts are being shot.

The ongoing season was earlier supposed to have cricketers as contestants but now it boasts of hot male celebrities like Dino Morea, Rahul Bose, Shabbir Ahluwalia, Karan Singh Grover, filmmaker Abhishek Kapoor, car racer Armaan Ebrahem and squash champion Ritwik Bhattacharya, apart from actor Manjot Singh, Cyrus and Rahul Dev. Each male celebrity is teamed up with one non celebrity female contestant (less)

The Raging Bull director is helming the period drama, which tells the story of politician Enoch 'Nucky' Thompson, played by Steve Buscemi, in Atlantic City during the 1920's prohibition.

The show, which will premieres on HBO in September, will mark a long-awaited return to the small-screen for the renowned director. According to reports, the producers have spared no costs to get the details right.

For the show, a 300ft boardwalk was created in an empty car park in Brooklyn, New York, complete with bars, restaurants and a salt taffy shop. But spending such a huge amount of money making the series has already paid off for HBO, as it has already become their best-selling series internationally and the rights have been licensed to 160 countries (less)

It's sad that we couldn't come to an agreement. Akshay is like a brother.

But I can't afford him.I hope we work together again very soon.

Shweta is said to add an extra zing to the show as Additi Gupta's character Pihu ties the knot with Abhay played by Raunak Ahuja in the show.

She chose to dance to the song Aaja we maahi tera rasta udik diya from the film Heena, moving away from more recent Bollywood numbers played during weddings. "It's time to revive the magic of this fabulous Heena, number.

While the rest of the world is busy with the Bole Chudiyas and Mahi Ve, I thought why not revisit a beautiful track from the past?" said Shweta.

Just days after he disappointed fans by being the first one to exit the show, there are reports that he will be back.

The 44-year-old gave up sooner than anyone on the show when asked to do an underwater stunt in Rio de Janeiro's Teresopolis Farm. A national level swimmer, many were touting him as the likely winner.

After performing poorly, Milind claimed that it was the chilling six degree temperature underwater that caused his early elimination and expressed his lament at the loss. But the actor has a reason to smile now, as he will be back soon on the show to face danger with an improved attitude (less)

Era of villains is over, says Ashutosh Rana

Ashutosh Rana, one of the last bad boys of Indian cinema, who terrorised audiences with his turn as a psychopath in films like Dushman and Sangharsh , says that the era of devilish villains who ruled the big screen is over. Rana, last in the list of anti-heroes like Ajeet, Pran and Prem Chopra, said (more) Ashutosh Rana, one of the last bad boys of Indian cinema, who terrorised audiences with his turn as a psychopath in films like Dushman and Sangharsh , says that the era of devilish villains who ruled the big screen is over. Rana, last in the list of anti-heroes like Ajeet, Pran and Prem Chopra, said that the audience no longer considers things in black and white.

"Cinema is a reflection of society, and as society changes so does our creativity. Earlier there would be a good guy and a bad guy.

Our villain would be a dacoit, a lender, and our hero would be a police officer, a teacher. "Then things changed, rich people and smugglers became villains and police and other people became heroes," Rana said in an interview.

Larger-than-life images of yesteryears' villains who went on rampaging the life of a hero, raping his sister and molesting his girlfriend were a regular feature of almost all the films. But times have changed and the 45-year-old actor says that the bad guy in movies these days has shades of grey and even the hero has ceased to be all-good.

"Now a common man is a hero, he is half good and half bad. And the villain now is also not an out-and-out bad guy.

He is a hero for his friends and villain for his enemy; the portrayal is very subjective," he said. Rana further said that over the years the concept of a hero has also changed, who is no longer simply a honest good man.

"The concept of hero has changed. If you ask me where is that villain, I ask you where is that hero," he said.

Even as Rana argues that the bad guys are not all that bad in films, he is all set to play a evil villain on the small screen this time. The actor, who started his career with Swabhimaan , will be playing Keshav Thakral, a powerful businessman who makes the life of an upcoming badminton player hellish in newly launched show Kali - Ek Agnipariksha on Star Plus.

"Power of money, knowledge, family and muscle power is all that a man can have, and if a person has all of them he stops competing with others and thinks his competition is with the God. This the character of (Keshav) Thakral.

This character is the king of evil," said Rana. The actor will also be seen brandishing a moustache in the serial.

The show apparently draws inspiration from the Ruchika Malhotra case, which the producers of the serial, however, denied (less)
