Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya have been living separately: Amar Singh

Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan have been living separately from  Even before I met Amitabh Bachchan : Amar Singh Rajya Sabha MP Amar Singh also talked about a rift between Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and mother-in-law Jaya Bachchan. Politician Amar Singh, once a very close friend of Amitabh Bachchan, made some shocking revelations about the Bachchan family. He said in an interview to ABP, “Even before I met Amitabh Bachchan, he and Jaya Bachchan were living separately. In their two bungalows, Janak and Pratiksha. People blame me for every possible problem in the country. I am not even responsible for the rift between Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan.” Amar Singh has recently been accused of causing a rift in the Samajwadi Party. Clearing himself of the blame, the Rajya Sabha MP says that the media always believes him to be responsible for every rift whether it concerns the Samajwadi Party, the Ambanis or the Bachchans. Amar Singh had even earlier made a ...

Kaabil movie review: Hrithik Roshan is out for revenge

Kaabil movie review: Hrithik Roshan is out for revenge Kaabil movie review: Even in a Hrithik Roshan, Yami Gautam film, it can't be all song and dance. This time, Hrithik is out for vendetta but can the Sanjay Gupta film be true to its visually-challenged protagonist? He is a dubbing artiste, she is a pianist. They are both happy-go-lucky with a thirst to live life to the fullest. They are both blind too but the way Hrithik Roshan and Yami Gautam play the leads of Kaabil, it is more incidental than the central focus of the film. It is as if the love that envelopes them is enough to defeat the odds life has thrown at them. They romance on Rajesh Roshan’s songs, prove their dancing chops in Mon Amour and Hrithik even gets to play Amitabh Bachchan for a bit. Kaabil is a Sanjay Gupta film, and in his films, the perfect cannot last for too long. The idyllic world of Hrithik and Yami is destroyed once Rohit Roy and Ronit Roy’s baddies enter it. Yami’s Supriya will fade...

Kaabil: Blind can make us open our eyes to our potential, says Hrithik Roshan Bollywood Greek’s God Hrithik Roshan, who would be seen playing a visually-impaired character in his next film Kaabil, feels that blind people are an example of the potential that lies in all of us. “They are an example of the potential that lies inside all of us. We are blind to our own potential, but the blind can actually make us open our eyes to our potential. It’s incredible inspiring when you learn of blind photographers, blind make-up artist, painters, lawyers, singers. They are doing everything, I mean to which world we were in thinking how this could be possible”, he said. “The film is not trying to give a message out but through the film, through the campaign, through our words we want to create this awareness about the blind because we truly believe that we are blind to their world. Their world is not how we perceive and the reason I m saying this is because I myself went throu...

Crowds will come to see Dawood too: ‘Raees’ promotion targeted by BJP’s Vijayvargiya

Crowds will turn out even if Dawood Ibrahim comes in public, BJP national general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya said on Tuesday, targeting Shah Rukh Khan over the death of a man during heavy rush at the actor’s promotion of his film ‘Raees’ for which he travelled by train. Vijayvargiya also took to Twitter to praise Prime Minister Narendra Modi and hit out at Rahul Gandhi using the titles of two upcoming Bollywood films, saying our country’s ‘Kaabil’ is better than the ‘Raees’ of other country, apparently referring to the Congress vice-president’s foreign roots. “There is a new tradition of promoting films. The promoters should at least take care of public convenience. If they promote films in railways, the common people will suffer. Even if Dawood appears in public, crowd will come out. So we cannot gauge the popularity (of people), at least, on the basis of crowd,” Vijayvargiya said. He said public convenience should be kept in mind and films should be promoted ...

(My films were considered) cheap action comedy movies. I don’t care as I am not for awards I am for the audience. Even if my films do well at the box office or not do good, or people watch my films or don’t watch my films I will continue to risk my life for every movie,” Jackie told reporters here. “They saw (referring to his work) after 56 years I did not change; I was doing the same thing, which is why they decided to give me the Oscar. I think one should continue to do their best always. ...
