together in a golf-cart in the US. The thought of two ‘bhais’ being
transported to the US took Hirani’s fancy. When Dutt came to know about
this idea, he liked it very much and asked Hirani to make a film on it.

Director
Sudipto Chattopadhya who is currently making PANKH for White Feather
films with Bipasha Basu is pretty nervous. PANKH with its bold theme of
gender identity had already created ripples in the film industry
circle. To calm his frail nerves down, Sudipto had a special screening

said, "I was glad that the audience could easily connect to the main
protagonist emotionally. The theme of PANKH touched their hearts and
that itself was a triumphant moment for me. Everyone who saw the
scenes, we showed them, was full of praise. It was heart warming."

Shahrukh
makes ‘bad’ look ‘cool’. I’ve been saying it ever since ‘Don’ promos

villainous act soon but there’s more good news for SRK fans. According

sequels it seems. For even before the release of ‘Dhoom 2’ the plans
are already underway for ‘Dhoom 3’.
Another
interesting bit of news is regarding Rishi and Neetu Kapoor’s hot
looking son Ranbir Kapoor. He is currently wrapping up his debut

Bollywood. Her debut being Aladdin in which she plays the character of

requested to sing the song. BIG B has sung two songs – one is a
