Running Shaadi

Starring Amit Sadh, Tapsee Pannu

Directed by Amit Roy

What do you call these? Haan, the Pheelgoood type of film. Running Shaadi keeps the proceedings running at a hectic ace. With a shaadi happening every ten minutes you’d expect a certain strain monotony to waft into the proceedings. But no. Debutant director Amit Roy knows how to make every shaadi look fresh…or freessss, as our Bihari hero would say.

And hey, this is as good a place as any to tell you, Amit Sadh’s Bihari accent is bang-on. Neither overdone, nor too casual it fits the character’s lackadaisical personality like a hand in glove. Ram Bharose—yup, that’s our Bihari Baba’s name—a Bihari migrant in Amritsar, loves the feisty Punjabi girl Nimmi.

She is the doughty Sardarni who at the beginning of the film asks her father’s helpful employee to help her with an abortion.

The post Ranveer Singh to endorse Itc’s Dark Fantasy biscuits? appeared first on Bollywood Hungama.

After having made his dream debut with Yrf's film Band Baaja Baaraat, it seems that, there is no stopping Ranveer Singh now. Besides being a strong contender for the 'Numeri Uno' spot in Bollywood, Ranveer Singh also happens to be one of the most wanted names in the Fmcg sector for brand endorsements. If Bollywood Hungama's reliable sources are to be believed, then, Ranveer Singh is now all set to enter the entrepreneurial zone by launching his very own clothing line and that he is presently on a hunt for a brand name that will signify his energy and aura. If this news turns out to be true, then Ranveer Singh will be joining the likes of Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt, Sonam Kapoor and others, who have their own clothing line. Watch this space for developments.

A couple of years ago up and coming Bollywood superstar Ranveer Singh (Band Baaja Baaraat, Lootera) appeared in a one off music video for a song called "My Name is Ranveer Ching." The music video was meant as a big budget ad film for the Ching's Secret food brand, a company that specializes in Indian-Chinese fusion products for home cooking. The song was incredibly - and baffingly - popular in 2014 and has so far racked up nearly two million views on YouTube. Apparently it was popular enough that Ching's Secret is back again for seconds with a teaser dropping today for an extended ad film titled Ranveer Ching Returns. Normally we don't put a whole lot of focus on ad films, but once in...

Yesterday we had reported that Chitrangda Singh walked out of the much delayed project Babumoshai Bandookbaaz after accusing director Kushan Nandy of being rude whilst directing her for an intimate scene amidst the entire unit. However, now, the filmmaker has come out to talk about the actress' apparent unprofessional behaviour on the sets. Readers may be aware that Babumoshai Bandookbaaz has been in the making for over a year and the film faced setbacks as the situation turned chaotic in West Bengal, where this film was initially supposed to be shot. However, after several delays, the film finally went on floor a few days ago in Lucknow but has now faced another obstacle with the leading lady calling it quits. Kushan Nandy, who is disappointed with Chitrangda, stated that the actress had been behaving weird and throwing tantrums ever since they set foot in Lucknow. He further revealed that though the actress agreed to the script and the scenes of the film when she was presented with the same over a year ago, as soon as the film went on floors, her behaviour changed despite the fact that there was no change in the character she was playing. He also added about the actress refusing to do romantic scenes which she was aware about ever since the start. From stalling shoots to staying in the vanity van if the script wasn't changed according to her demands, Kushan listed down several such incidents after they started shooting. One amongst them, was when a choreographer was chasing Chitrangda for over three days for a dance sequence. But when neither she nor her team responded, they had to shoot the track minus the dance sequence. Claiming that his film is not erotica and that it has just the usual amount of intimacy in any other film like an Ishqiya or Band Baaja Baaraat, Kushan stated that he met Chitrangda to tell her that he wouldn't have any more of this behaviour and the actress apparently retorted and left the set. Kushan also claimed that Chitrangda had called for a meeting with the entire unit as she was extremely flustered with things not going her way and there, discussed about rescripting the second half of the film. When the filmmaker refused, the actress asked him to find another leading lady and stormed out. According to Kushan, she continued to persuade him to make the changes until she boarded the flight back to the city, but he refused to budge as he did not want to compromise on the script despite the fact that he will incur losses.

Bring on Beyoncé and Bruno Mars singing "The Rains of Castamere": This year's run of Game of Thrones is halfway over, and it's time to sit back and take stock of Season Six's stats. As of last night's blistering climax, over a dozen major players have died; some of the biggest bastards in the Seven Kingdoms have seized power; and the White Walkers are advancing ever closer on the Wall and all that lies beyond. But it's not all bad news for the home team: Jon Snow lives, Daenerys Targaryen rides,...

Game of Thrones has a lot of 'splainin' to do. The hit HBO show's fifth season ended on a whole mountain range of cliffhangers, from Jon Snow stabbed by his own men to Daenerys Targaryen and her dragon running into a horde of Dothraki warriors. Meanwhile, Sansa Stark and Theon Greyjoy are running for their lives and political powder kegs everywhere are waiting to go boom. Since the show is now moving past the point where author George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series left off,...

It is a renowned fact that Ranveer Singh got his first big break in Bollywood under the prestigious Yrf banner with Band Baaja Baaraat and incidentally, he was paired opposite Anushka Sharma in the film. The onscreen couple later went on to do another film with Yrf titled Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl and now the pair is all set to work with Yash Raj once again. From what we hear, Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma will be paired together for the fourth time (last being Zoya Akhtar's Dil Dhadakne Do) in Aditya Chopra's upcoming directorial. It's been a while since Aditya Chopra has donned the director's hat and interestingly his last directorial Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi marked the debut of Anushka Sharma in Bollywood. As for a confirmation, we are still awaiting an official announcement from Yash Raj Films.
