Ajay Devgn, who recently completed 25 years in film industry, has got another reason to celebrate as his most ambitious project ‘Shivaay’ has now entered the coveted Inr 100 crore club at the box office. The movie, which was released during Diwali week on October 28, received a good response from the audiences and crossed Inr 50 crore mark in just five days of the release. ‘Shivaay’ which was riding high on its breath-taking locations, high-octane action sequences and VFX, lagged slightly behind in terms of box office numbers to Karan Johar's romantic emotional drama ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ which released on the same day.

The two reigning actresses of Bollywood Kareena Kapoor Khan and Deepika Padukone are going neck-to-neck, if we observe their Box-office status. Both Kareena (Singham Returns, Ra.One, Bodyguard, Golmaal 3, 3 Idiots) and Deepika (Piku, Happy New Year, Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-leela, Chennai Express, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani) have a total of five films (in their career span) that did a whooping business of 100 crore plus. The following graph gives further clear picture:
Since Kareena is gearing for yet another potential blockbuster in the form of Bajrangi Bhaijaan starring Salman Khan, it is estimated to be her sixth film that will become a part of 100 crore plus club. But, looking at Deepika's forthcoming projects Tamasha and Bajirao Mastani, which are equally big ventures from topnotch filmmakers like Imtiaz Ali and Sanjay Leela Bhansali respectively, we are sure the lanky lady will yet again sweep over Box-office and emerge as the 'Queen'.

When the trailer of Entertainment hit the web, it left the audiences surprised since it portrayed Junior, the dog, as the hero of the film. Though dogs have played prominent roles in many films before (Teri Meherbaniyan, Hum Aapke Hain Koun! etc), Entertainment will be a comic caper, where the dog inherits the entire property of a wealthy man. The film itself is named after the dog's character name (Entertainment) and now the makers have decided that the dog's real name will appear in the opening credits even before Akshay Kumar's name in the film. When quizzed director Farhad-Sajid on this sudden twist in the tale, Sajid said, "It was Akshay's idea completely, as Junior is the hero of the film and we thought amicably, it is justified too. Junior's name will appear first in the opening credits. Hats off to Akshay to have thought of this...

The term ‘100 crore club’ has become the benchmark target by which to measure the box office success of a film. 2012 had 8 official 100 crore plus films. That is 3 more than 2011. As expected, the majority of films are either of the action genre (Rowdy Rathore, Agneepath, Ek Tha Tiger) or comedy genre (Housefull 2, Bol Bachchan, Son of Sardar), but it was good to see different films (Barfi) also do well in 2012. One thing is for sure, none of the films have yet been able to beat the current record held by 3 Idiots (202 crore).

Pran Kishan Sikand dreamt of becoming a professional photographer. Little did he know that a measly, humble ‘paan’ (betel leaf) would change his life and set him on his destined path. It was 1939 or thereabouts. Pran was at a ‘paan’ shop at Lahore, enjoying a munch with his friends when a stranger approached him and asked whether he wanted to act in films. Pran was amused and asked his name. Stranger introduced himself as Muhammad Walli, a renowned film maker in the flourishing film district of Lahore. He said he was making a Punjabi film and Pran looked a perfect fit for the role of a villain in the film. Pran just brushed him off. Walli kept insisting that he pay a visit to the studio, and pushed a piece of paper with his address into Pran’s hands. The film was Yamla Jat (1940), a runaway hit that year.
