Kangana in Dhamaal 2

Ever since the beginning of her career, Kangna Ranaut has excelled in roles where her character is a tad edgy. Also, there is a certain psychotic/suicidal element to majority of her characters. Whether it is Simran of GANGSTER, Sana Azim of WOH LAMHE, Neha of LIFE IN A METRO, Shonali of FASHION, Nandita of RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES or Gina Grover of KITES - each of these characters hasn't quite been a regular girl next door with everything hunky-dory about her. No wonder, one has waited to see Kangna in a film where she could afford to live life normally, be happy, enjoy a normal relationship and let her hair loose.

Audience (and perhaps Kangna's) wait has finally come to an end with the actor being signed for DOUBLE DHAMAAL, sequel to the original DHAMAAL, which was successful at the box office. Icing on the cake lies in the fact that though the first of this Indra Kumar franchise was an all boys affair (Sanjay Dutt, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Javed Jaffrey, Ashish Chaudhary), the sequel is all set to be a far colorful affair with female protagonists being an integral part of the film as well.

Confirms Kangna, "Yes, I have signed the film. It seems good fun to be working in a laughter entertainment like DHAMAAL. Being a part of a comic outing like this should be quite interesting." When asked about her leading man in the film, Kanga informs, "I am paired opposite Riteish in DOUBLE DHAMAAL. We begin shooting this September." DOUBLE DHAMAAL would be for the first time that Kangna would be working with Riteish Deshmukh, something that should make for an altogether fresh new pairing.

Other than Kangna, there is another leading lady in the film as well. As per reports, Vidya Balan is also a part of DOUBLE sequel and would be paired opposite Sanjay Dutt. However, an official confirmation is yet to come in.

MNIK changed my mind says Rajkumar Hirani

It appears that the third edition of the MUNNA BHAI series, MUNNA BHAI CHALE AMERIKA has been shelved.

As per the director Rajkumar Hirani himself, a number of successful film have already been made on the subject and especially Karan Johar's MY NAME IS KHAN was very specific, where the hero Shah Rukh Khan gets to meet the US president and delivers his message. This would have meant that a number of key sequences would have been similar and already seen in the proposed MUNNA BHAI CHALE AMERIKA.

However the fans of 'Munna Bhai' and 'Circuit' need not despair because the Rajkumar Hirani directed saga will go on and the third MUNNA BHAI will be made and once again it will have Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi playing their lovable characters!

Golmaal 3 to release this diwali

It is by now well known that this Diwali will see Rohit Shetty's GOLMAAL 3 taking on Vipul Shah's ACTION REPLAYY and we are not here to inform you about that. Actually it's really an action replay of last Diwali where the two leading men of the two respective films Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar took each other through ALL THE BEST and BLUE.

As may be recalled the initial weekend battle was convincingly won by BLUE as it netted 20 crores as opposed to 10 crores by ALL THE BEST. But after that due to the positive word of mouth and good reviews , the Ajay Devgn starrer had a very stable run while the collections of the Akshay film crashed .

However, while BLUE turned out to be a big failure it did manage to spoil ALL THE BEST's party by taking away its audience in the initial holiday weekend period. Eventually both the film ended up netting around 41- 42 crores from India but due to a reasonable price (as opposed to the huge costs of BLUE), ALL THE BEST managed to get a successful tag but just about! In fact BLUE makers could have easily said - Khud doobey, Sanam ko bhi le doobey!

On a serious note, this year it will definitely be a more interesting battle as both Ajay-Rohit and Akshay-Vipul have a successful track record to boast of. Here is hoping for a double blast this Diwali.
