Murder 3 : coming soon

The unexpectedly high success-ratio of Murder 3 has speeded up the process of working on the franchise. Director Mohit Suri has been told to leave all other ideas and work on the next Murder movie. Murder 3 will now be made sooner rather than later. The way it's going, Murder 2 will be one of the biggest hits of 2011 and the biggest success so far of the Bhatts' production house. They now want to do Murder 3 quickly. The writing has already begun.

Jubilant and all geared up for the Murder 2 success party to be held on Friday evening, producer Mukesh Bhatt said, "Yes we're already looking at Murder 3. We hope to have it out by the summer of 2012."

Shagufta Rafique who wrote Murder 2 has been put on the job of quickly coming up with a crackling script for Murder 3 which will again star Emraan Hashmi. But the USP of the Murder franchise is the eclipsed hottie waiting for a makeover. If Murder presented a made-over Mallika Sherawat and Murder 2 sees a completely revamped Jacqueline Fernandez. Murder 3 will also see an actress with a made-over image.

Says Mukesh Bhatt, "At the moment I can't reveal the casting plans. But yes Mohit Suri will again direct the next Murder film." The one thing that the writer has been asked to keep in mind while doing Murder 3 is to keep the plot original. Murder was apparently plagiarized from Unfaithful and now Murder 2 is said to be ripped off from a Korean film.

Mukesh Bhatt baulks at the suggestion of plagiarism. "People said Murder was copied from Unfaithful when it was more like B R Chopra's Gumrah. As for Murder 2, I haven't even heard of the Korean film The Chaser. If there are similarities then they're purely coincidental."

Adds Mahesh Bhatt, "Saying Murder 2 is ripped off is an uncharitable remark. It's like saying Ghajini was copied from Memento. A situation can't be copyrighted. I'd say Murder 2 is closer to our own production Sangharsh. A Hindi film is like a patched quilt."

All said and done, Murder 3 which is now being written will be absolutely original. About it being made ahead of Raaz 3, Vikram Bhatt who's to direct Raaz 3 for the Bhatts, says, "As far as I know we're going on the floors in January 2012. Raaz 3 will have Emraan Hashmi and Jacqueline Fernandez. It will also star another girl. But the role is still in development. As for Murder 3, it's a great franchise. But I'm sure Raaz 3 will also have a lot of takers."

Salman - Katrina in a relashionship again ?

Its not very long ago when the kingdom of bollywood was blossoming with the made in heaven pair of Prince Salman and Barbie Katrina but one day the news of Salman-kat break up spread like a wildfire in the happy land, then came a charming young boy named "Ranbir Kapoor" who made his entry by cruising straight to the heart of bollywood's barbie doll "Katrina Kaif" but before their relationship was ready to take off, unfirtunately it crashed and seperated the two. Ranbir went back to his kingdom of "Haseenas" and Kat left with the broken heart. But here is the twist in the tale.

If reports are to beleived Salman and Kat are back again (or perhaps they never broke-off, which media highlighted). Salim, the daddy dearest of Salman has recently organised the private screening of Kat's upcoming movie "Zindagi na milegi dobara" and surprisingly it was attended by the entire Khan-daan of Salman. Prior to that Salman was seen at the airport giving a warm hug to a Katrina. Whatever their relationship status be(I hope they were on facebook), we are damn sure something is definitely cooking between the two.

Salman could also be seen romancing Katrina in his upcoming movie "Ek tha Tiger". Here is the movie still-

Google Plus India buzz

So finally google plus (+) is ready for the Indian market (still in Beta testing and invite only mode though) but the big question is do we need to change the social platform again i.e. from "facebook" to "google plus", more so when the 60% of the Indian users are still new to facebook itself.

Aren't we already slaves to Google's vast empire ?? From watching videos(youtube) to managing our e-mails(gmail), from blogging(blogger) to storing our photos(picasa), from advertising(adwords) to publishing(adsense,doubleclick), from internet browsing(chrome) to seeking information(google) and last but not the least even our mobile phones are having google's presence in the form of "Android" and if we prefer google plus, our entire internet activity might concentrate at the single host, which may be risky as some critics are pointing out.

Well you must all be wondering that why I am posting my opinions on the topic which is more suitable for tech blogs and has got nothing to do with "bollywood". Yeah that's a legitimate question, but I believe our social life is one of the upmost priority of an individual and it's associated with each and every topic. In simple words this topic could be termed as "globalization of your life" or "endorsing an individual".

Back to the topic. The biggest fear among all the tech critics is that the hype which is being created by the Google +, don't turn out to be a desperate shout or if you would like to put in the financial terms "a big powerful social bubble". Google is treating their social venture as a "project" and not as a "website" (good for them). It's not very long ago when Google launched their one more over hyped social platform named "buzz" to gain the market share of "instant micro-blogging market" and beat the competitors like "Twitter" which for now is clearly dominating the field but unfortunately Google failed miserably and that's the very reason, I would suggest to all the facebook users to think twice before swapping your social life from one platform to another.
It's too early to compare Google plus with Facebook. Google's current 10 million users database might seem "as a drop in the ocean" in front of the mammoth size of  Facebook which is having more than 750 million users, out of them more than 50% are active users. But again Google is in beta testing mode only and is available to selected users only. We have to wait for the real response from the people.

It would be quite emotinal for the addiccted and  avid facebook lovers to leave the terms like "wall", "poke", "like" and get use to new social terminologies such as "hangouts", "sparks", "circles". Google's marketing strategy is quite lame too. Instead of endorsing their own brand, they are showing more interest in downgrading other social media services especially "facebook". Google is emphasizing more on the "privacy issue" which scores where facebook lacks and "sharing" to be made simpler and compatible. Well to be frank there is nothing new in this social extravaganza but slightly different from others. Here are few of their main features-


Circles = Facebook. Share content with your friends, only you don't have to share everything with  everybody at once. You can pick and choose specific groups.

Sparks = Google Reader or Delicious. Subscribe to news and information sources and get a constantly updated feed.

Hangouts = Tinychat. Live video conversations with multiple friends at once.

Instant Uploads = Microsoft Kin (and iCloud, and...). Snap photos with your phone and they're automatically uploaded to an online storage spot on Google Plus.

Huddle = GroupMe. Group chat.

Vivek Oberoi : the new high flying villain

Vivek Oberoi has been finalised to play the the role of the main villian for the one of the most anticipated upcoming movie Krish2 and he is making sure not to keep any stone unturned to be the new baddie of Bollywood, which according to him is a cruicial part of his acting career.

The actor is completing flying hours for his role for KRRISH sequel.

Vivek Oberoi is making sure that he finished his training that will equip him to fly a plane before he starts shooting for KRRISH 2. It is learnt that he will be doing some daredevil aerial stunts for the climax scene with Hrithik Roshan in Rakesh Roshan's next movie.

A well-placed source told us that Vivek has enrolled at a flying institute in Florida, US. And as and when he can, he takes off, to complete his flying hours before he can get his license.

The character is inspired from Patrick Stewart's Professor Charles Xavier in the Hollywood's X-MEN series. Interestingly, there's a mutant angle in the Rakesh Roshan directed movie as Chitrangada Singh's character is based on Mystique, who can transform herself completely into another individual.

The actor is relegated to the wheelchair for a considerable portion of the film. 'He can move only his hands for a major part of the movie. But later, he is cured and gains mobility before the action-filled climax,' says the source, adding that this is when he flies a plane for the confrontational sequences.

Interestingly, Professor X, as Charles Xavier is also called in the X-Men series, also has a special plane for himself and his team. Maybe that's the inspiration for the producer-director, who's also said to be planning a specially designed aircraft for Vivek's character in the movie. Well we hope this high flying machine can help in the take off vivek's otherwise grounded career.

Terrorist attack in Mumbai

The city has been targeted once again. Three explosions have taken place in Mumbai on Wednesday evening - two in South Mumbai at Opera House and in Zaveri Bazar and one at Dadar West, in central Mumbai. The Home Ministry has confirmed a terrorist attack and Mumbai is on high alert.

Maharashtra government sources say at least 60 people have been injured in the serial blasts. Eyewitnesses said about 15 to 20 people have taken to hospital in Zaveri Bazar. There were unconfirmed reports said six people had died in the Dadar blast, four in the Zaveri Bazaar blast.

The Home Ministry has said that Improvised Explosive Devices were used. All blasts took place during rush hour and in crowded places. The Dadar area houses the Shiv Sena Bhawan.

One explosion,  in a car at a bus stop in Dadar West, has been confirmed. A police officer said there might have been an explosive in a meter box behind a hoarding at Khau gali, a street filled with eateries at Zaveri Bazaar. The Opera House blast took place at Prasad Chamber.

An unexploded bomb has also reportedly been found in Dadar and a bomb disposal squad is working to defuse it.

Early reports said a police control room had received a call claiming that there were serial blasts in Mumbai.

A National Investigation Agency (NIA) team has rushed to Mumbai from Delhi to investigate and collect forensic evidence. The police have appealed for calm.

Zaveri Bazaar has been hit before -  over 50 people were killed in twin blasts in 2002.

Malls, markets and other crowded places in Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore are on high alert.

The whole Bollywood is condolencing this blast and showing strength to fight against cowards who are terrorizing the city. Few of the celebrity tweets are-

Aishwarya's French connection

Aishwarya seems to be in news once again. We are not talking about her association with any French brand. The actress has been the talk of the town after her pregnancy became public. This was of course followed by her controversy related to Madhur Bhandarkar's film Heroine. Now, Aishwarya seems to be taking the center stage again, as she is all set to be honoured with the prestigious Officer Dan Ordre Des Arts Et Des Lettres by the French Government in New Delhi tomorrow, thus becoming the first Asian actress and the youngest Indian to win the honour. This distinction is conferred on people who have achieved immense recognition, because of their contribution in the fields of arts, culture or literature. The previous winners of this awards (which happens to be the second highest civilian award in France and an equivalent Padma Vibhushan), include the likes of Robert Redford, George Clooney, Meryl Streep and Shah Rukh Khan.

The news of Ash being the recipient of this award was publicly declared by the French daily 'Le Figaro', which stated that, "She (Ash) is one of the most famous Indian actors in this country and outside the borders of India. Aishwarya will be made Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters, Wednesday, July 13, by the Ambassador of France in New Delhi, Jerome Bonnafont. According to a statement from the embassy, the ceremony will be attended by the family of the young woman in full."

Not many know the fact that Ash, who had earlier too been offered this award, had refused it then due to her father's health issues.

Ash had been quite frequent to "France" these days. Here is some of her appearance in France at different events.

AARAKSHAN songs MP3 Download(Exclusive)

    REVIEW & MP3 (DOWNLOAD)

Aarakshan is an issue centric movie, so is its music, which is more situational than a general song. The music of the movie is classical and slow. "Kaun si dor" is a nice track sung by Shreya Ghoshal and Pt.channulal mishra. The music is given by the trio "Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy". "Mauka" is a peppy number and a romantic song picturised on Saif and Deepika.

       Achha Lagta Hai

The film is also a story about 3 friends, who go on a road trip, which changes their lives forever. One of the most-looked forward promotional road show by the stars, was started from Mumbai on Thursday. The first halt of their long road trip was Surat from there they headed straight to Baroda, where they had dinner with the royal family at the Baroda palace. Apparently, the cast is driving the car themselves turn by turn, and Katrina is behind the wheel most of the times. Hrithik and Katrina and the entire cast started their third day of the journey by having some spicy delicacies in Udaipur on Saturday morning.

Interestingly, Katrina is travelling the lightest for the trip, she is carrying minimal baggage, in fact the boys have more bags than Kat. Abhay Deol is the DJ of the car and is carrying his all time favourite song's collection, which is being played in the car all the time. Farhan has surprised all by playing his guitar for his team occasionally. Hrithik was heard saying that he is super excited about the trip since it's his first road trip ever in India. The film is all about living each and every moment of life so the cast wanted to make the promotional trip too a unique experience. All the actors, including their crew members will drive through different cities.
