BHOOTNATH

But it’s because of Banku’s love for Bhootnath that the amicable ghost leaves Banku with an option of appearing in front of Banku whenever he wishes from the core of his heart.Even god changes his mind for the sake of true and honest love. This film is not about the triumph of a child but the success of true love and faith.It’s the second time where Amitabh is posing as a ghost and his look in “Bhootnath”, though unintentionally, reminds of his look of Gabbar Singh in “Ram Gopal Verma Ki Aag”. If that is some bad news, the good part is that his acting always sweeps away the feeling of looking alike.At the same time his intimidated being with the presence of his son lets audience recap his character in Baghban”.Aman Siddiqui has depicted Banku’s character very well. Juhi Chawla and Shah Rukh’s couple still reminds the same freshness that they show in their very first film.Writer-director Vivek Sharma has proved his prowess in hisjob. His beautifully mingled presentation of entertainment...

They had to be called back to unzip their equipment and accompany John's singing."Yes, John sang an encore on the audiences' request.A playback singer in the offing?The other surprise of the evening. Nagesh Kukunoor joing John for impromptu singing.By then the audience had got more than what they had bargained for.. The unconventionally-planned music release of Aashayein at the Heritage Property in Bandra turned it to be far more unusual than planned.After John sang the number he had diligently rehearsed, the girls forced him and the band back on stage."It was simply crazy," says the execut...

Harman or Hrithik look alike?

Harman Baweja, better known as the boyfriend to Priyanka Chopra, starts his filmy career with Love Story 2050.Special features of the budding star make him having some resemblance with the famed name Hrithik Roshan, but his dancing steps in the promo of the film help people find another similarity between them.On the eve of the audio release of Love Story 2050, Harman snapped to the issue of semblance between him and Hrithik.“If I look like Hrithik then more than me my parents are responsible for that. Believe me, if I could have chance then would have traveled in a time machine to change everything,” helplessly explains Harman.However, it’s not new in Bollywood to have similarity of faces. While Madhuri Dixit has similarity with golden age actress Madhubala, Shah Rukh Khan was mostly known as the look alike of Dilip Kumar. But they both proved and created their own identity with their prowess in acting.For the time being the same pressure of creating own identity has come to Harman wh...
