We have an official statement from Mr Vikram Bhatt about his “imminent mud wrestle” and defamation suit he filed against Kamaal R Khan.
“It all started with a Twitter duel between Mr Kamaal R. Khan and me after the release of my film ‘Love Games’. Then, came his review of the film ‘1920 London’. Though I did not produce the film, direct it, write the dialogue or the screenplay, he decided to do a review of me instead of the film. He made absurd insinuations– called me a fraud, a pimp and other unsavory names. I couldn’t care less; When you have made a business of ranting, then ranting is what you got to do!
Two hours later, I found my daughter crying in the corner. She was hurt. As I took her little body wracked with sobs in my arms, I saw things more clearly…

If Bebo (Kareena Kapoor) and Bipasha Basu sizzled in the songs named after them (in their respective films Kambakkht Ishq and Jodi Breakers), than why should Bollywood's most sought after star Salman Khan, who has the biggest fan following, not have a special song under his name?
Yes you heard it right. If the latest reports are to be believed, than his upcoming film Bajrangi Bhaijaan will celebrate the star Salman Khan through a song (in his name) 'Salman'. The promotional number has Salman Khan playing himself and charming through his brand name.
But it's being said that the special number is not part of the film's narrative instead it will get played in the end credit rolls.
The said song has been choreographed by Remo D'souza.
Also starring Kareena Kapoor, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, directed by Kabir Khan, is set to hit the screens on July 17, 2015.

Tamil-Bollywood star-actor R Madhavan who turned 44 on Monday invited all his heroines to a birthday bash at Royalty, a posh club in Mumbai, for what Maddy described as a "grand reunion scene straight out of Mera Naam Joker". "It was an occasion I wanted to celebrate. I not only completed 44 years on this earth. But I also completed 15 years in this film industry which is my universe. I've done some really satisfying work with some terrific directors and some of the most beautiful women on this earth that I've met since my wife," chuckled Maddy as he prepares for what he calls the second innings. "The success of Tanu Weds Manu Returns has rejuvenated me. I feel like I did when I worked with Mani Ratnam in my first film Alai Payuthe." Maddy's main mentor Mani could not attend the birthday celebrations. "He was in Chennai and unable to fly down to Mumbai.

The suave actor Randeep Hooda, who was last seen in the Salman Khan flick Kick, is now all gearing up for the release of his next film Rang Rasiya (which had been lying in the cans for long).
Besides acting, it now seems that the writing bug has bitten the Hooda boy and which is why he is now all set to write a film. Reports state that the film he is writing will be revolving around boxing and will be based on Bhiwani district (Haryana). If the buzz is to be believed, then, the film might just be titled as Bhiwani and will be directed by Ashwini Chaudhary (who had earlier directed Jodi Breakers). Whether Randeep Hooda will act in the film is something that only time will tell.
Watch this space for developments.

Coming up on August 23rd is Prakash Jha’s political thriller Satyagraha, starring an incredible cast that includes Kareena Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgn, Arjun Rampal, and Manoj Bajpayee. For the music of the film, Jha brought in the great duo of Salim and Sulaiman, who in turn brought in some incredible singers. Both Shweta and Shraddha Pandit are featured on the Ost and what is so cool is that this is only the second time the gorgeous songstress sisters have sung in the same film. We caught up with them to ask about their songs in Satyagraha, working with Salim-Sulaiman and much more!

Chennai, March 25: It took actor R. Madhavan a workout session with Salman Khan to convince himself that he is not all that super strong.
"All misconception of me being super strong and fit were laid to rest when I worked out with the one and only Salman Khan sir," posted Madhavan on his Twitter page.
"His training was simple and super effective, but oh it killed me. Oh god, how strong is he, man? I was overwhelmed with gratitude and lactic acid," he further posted.

That 2012 began with an overwrought hyper-melodramatic brutal and tumultuous remake of Agneepath and ended with Yash Chopra’s muted mellow all-heart-no-malice ode to romance Jab Tak Hai Jaan seems indicative of the direction that Bollywood seems headed for. The journey, as we can see, is unpredictable and largely exciting. Looking back, some films of 2012 that fetched hype-star ratings seem bloated and over-eager to please either critics or the masses, but never both. Luckily the films that were truly meritorious did get a place under the swoon.
Each year Bollywood surprises us, and not always in a good way. 2012 seems like a watershed year even by the continuously evolving standards of filmmaking set by envelope-pushing directors who have filtered into filmdom during the past years. 2012 was the year when Tigmanshu Dhulia, Sujoy Ghosh and Shoojit Sircar came into their own with films that took mainstream cinema to new heights.

Looking back at 2012 song-ically, it certainly was a year of cool sounds, new voices, groovy and groovin’ beats and over all some killer tracks. Many of the songs brought a new vibe to the music of the movies, songs flavored with new influences, and songs that we never would have thought we would hear in a Bollywood flick. There were classic beats that got us up and dancing not to mention the grooves of today that got us to move to the music. We met some new singers we can’t wait to hear more of and some of our favorites blew us away with outstanding vocals. 2012 was full of surprises and we enjoyed so many of them, 50 in fact and every single note! As always we loved these songs when they first came out but once we saw them in the movie we loved them even more! Check out...

2012 has been an astoundingly brilliant year for Bollywood’s male singers. Needless to say the following 5 gentlemen soared above their talented colleagues and made an unmistakable mark upon the face of Indian music.
5. Ayushman Khurana
One film and one song old, yet Ayushman cannot be more of a rockstar. Sure the man can act and hold a film on his shoulders, but who knew he could sing as well. Paani Da Rang, a sweet and simple Punjabi track took the audiences by storm with only one complaint, we were left hankering for more. Here’s hoping 2013 changes that.
4. Amit Trivedi & Vishal Dadlani
Both Mr. Trivedi and Mr. Dadlani are jacks-of-all-trades in that they successfully score chartbusting albums and have the pipes to match. Mr. Trevedi’s genius refusal to stick to the norm gives us inconceivable fusions but it’s his earthy vocals that surprise you more. Be it ‘Wakda...

Madhur Bhandarkar’s Heroine has been headlines since its controversial inception with its Aishwariya drama, the casting of a new heroine, and its source material. It’s safe to say that the film has become so awaited to see how the results come off with Kareena Kapoor taking on a meaty dramatic role after some time. With its interesting trailer that hooked everyone in, to its fun ‘Halkat Jawani’ number, Heroine is definitely looking good for the heroine dominated season of 2012. Salim and Sulaiman take the music after their success with Fashion. With 5 tracks on offer, the Heroine soundtrack has some tracks to savour, but it does feel like a letdown.
We start the album with the addictive Halkat Jawani, which begins with that characteristic guitar riffs to get you hooked in, along with Sunidhi Chauhan beckoning “Aaja” with her slinky voice. The track may middle through the same Salim Sulaiman...

Sunday 15th of July saw Salim-Sulaiman take to the stage to entertain a packed audience at London’s Hammersmith Apollo, the beautiful art deco theatre which has hosted many legends such as The Beatles and Bob Marley. Bollyspice was there to catch it all and to share the highlights of the evening for those of you who were unfortunate enough to miss it…
Salim-Sulaiman are a pair of extremely talented musician brothers, who started off composing background movie scores for Bollywood films. They are now successful music-directors, who have worked extensively with Yash Raj films (Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Band Baaja Baaraat), amongst many others. They have also worked with acclaimed international stars like Lady Gaga.
Salim opened the evening sharing with the audience how they have been recording in the studios for the last fifteen years and only now felt that they could bring their music to the stage in London.

Beginning with Hamesha in 1997, the great musical duo of Salim and Sulaiman Merchant have given Bollywood’s actors and actresses, and of course, fans some of the greatest music heard and danced to in Hindi Cinema. They are the gentlemen behind incredible soundtracks such as Aaja Nachle and Chak De! India in 2007, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and Fashion for 2008, Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year and Kurbaan in 2009, Band Baaja Baaraat (2010), Ladies vs Ricky Bahl and Love Breakups Zindagi for 2011 and so far in 2012 Jodi Breakers with more to come. Phew! The mind boggles with how many great songs are on those Ost’s and how many tracks of theirs I have added to my all time favorite song playlists. Besides composing, the brothers have embarked on a world tour. They just finished up a hit Us tour and now are getting ready to thrill and entertain UK audiences on July 14th and 15th.

When contacted, Madhavan said, "I'm definitely keen on doing a film with golf as its main theme, like the Kevin Costner film Tin Cup. It won't be just about the game because that wouldn't interest that many people. We're working on a subject that weaves golf into a more generic plot."

All’s well until a case they take up ends wrongly and they take it upon themselves to fix the mess they created.

Omi Vaidya is changing it up again and this time he is going really out of his comfort zone for his role in Jodi Breakers. The comedy film, which opens today, stars R. Madhavan and Bipasha Basu, with Omi bringing in the funny as one of Madhavan’s friends. This role was a stretch for the actor because he is someone totally opposite to who he is, his character is totally into how he looks and wants to get girls kind of guy, but because of that it made him really want to play that part. Like all roles, Omi looks for what he can relate to and then totally becomes that character. In fact, so much so that sometimes he doesn’t even remember what he did in the scenes and many times is surprised when he is dubbing for the film. From what we have seen so far...

Just recently we had informed our patrons that the upcoming Jodi Breakers was looking like the next Tanu Weds Manu for actor Madhavan (Will Jodi Breakers be another Tanu Weds Manu for Madhavan). And seeing the hype that the film has managed to whip up prior to its release, it is most likely that our speculation may prove true, more so because Madhavan is in top form. To know the secret of Madhavan's exuberant energy we queried one of the co-stars of Jodi Breakers, Dipannita S...

It is very difficult to choose the winner and hopefully both will appeal to the audience (it has happened before!). Last Friday's major release Fox Star Studios' Prateik-Amy s...

Aamir Khan started a Hollywood-esque trend in the late 90s, where he chose to concentrate on one film at a time, and everyone knows the successful results that has wielded him. Notably Hrithik Roshan followed suit, where again it did his career wonders and now R. Madhavan seems to have adopted the philosophy. He shared “I do one film a year. I don’t look at a film like a project, I worship it. It’s like going to a temple. I can’t jump from one film set to another film
set.”
Now that works well when you’re just doing Hindi films, but maybe not so true when you add a host of South Indian films to the mix also, but he claims that his approach is exactly the same down south, where his recent Tamil film Veetai did very well. His next hope is pinned on Jodi Breakers...
