Celebrities

Apr 132018

Katrina Kaif and Varun Dhawan’s collaboration has been creating immense buzz ever since it was officially announced by the makers. The untitled project will be headlined by none other than Remo D’Souza, hence it was obvious that the story would be around dancing. This much-ambitious dance-based project will be reaching a new high as Remo is reportedly contemplating making it in 4-D.

During an interaction with a daily, Remo revealed how he and his team are trying to explore the 4D and IMAX space as well for their next venture. He is still learning the technology and hopes that he gets it right to use it in an appropriate way.

If we go back in time a little, we learn that Remo’s last dance-based film ‘ABCD 2’ explored the 3D space and received immense praises for the visual excellence that the movie delivered. Remo revealed that while making the film in 3D was quite laborious, however, the risk paid off as the format enhanced the movie and made it visually more appealing.

Remo is quite aware that using the latest format for his next will be much more demanding. There are a lot of elements involved, more attention to camera angles, mark of the actors has to be paid. Remo emphasises how they don’t want to compromise on the story because of the technology, so they are still toying with the idea.

Currently busy with the shoot of ‘Race 3’, after wrapping up his schedule, Remo plans to head to Los Angeles to understand the technique of 4D better.

Filmmaker Aanand L Rai is happy the way his forthcoming project Zero is shaping up, and is specially pleased with Katrina Kaif who, he says, has added warmth to the film’s sets. Shah Rukh Khan, who stars in Zero as a vertically challenged man, has been posting pictures from the sets and once quipped how Katrina has become his and the film’s new social media manager.

Rai, who is working with Kaif for the first time, said it is wonderful to have her on the sets. “She is having a lot of fun doing this. Thanks to her and the entire set because the film is technically and emotionally so difficult it was important for certain kind of people to associate with it who would create an atmosphere like this on sets,” Rai told reporters.

“That’s what Katrina Kaif is doing. She keeps an atmosphere of friendship and fun on the sets…which is so nice of her and the entire team, to have this kind of atmosphere on sets, all around,” he said. The filmmaker is happy with the way the audience received the movie’s teaser earlier this year and is excited the way it is shaping up.

“The feedback is very nice but my attempt is to present to the audience what I am feeling in my heart, completely. With Shah Rukh sir, I am feeling I am achieving that. We are having so much fun while making the film, it is what I look out for, I am hoping we could present all of that on screen too,” he said.

Aanand L Rai said now his focus is to deliver a film which will surpass the audience’s expectations. “Wait a little bit more, I’ve almost reached a point where I can openly talk about Zero. Give me two months more, I’ll finish the shoot and have lots to tell you…I’ll try hard that the film delivers more than what it is promising you now,” he said. The filmmaker was speaking at a special screening of Ba Ba Black Sheep last night.

Not Turquotte, Katrina Kaif's sister Isabelle sticks to the desi surname

Celebrities

Feb 122018

Now that Katrina Kaif’s sister Isabelle is the face of a cosmetic brand and is waiting to debut in Bollywood, all eyes are on her and her surname

Katrina Kaif with sister Isabelle

Now that Katrina Kaif’s sister Isabelle is the face of a cosmetic brand and is waiting to debut in Bollywood, all eyes are on her and her surname. She is referring to herself as Isabelle Kaif. Now that’s a bit strange. When Kat began in Bollywood with Kaizad Gustad’s Boom (2003), she was Katrina Turquotte.

The film’s producer, Ayesha Shroff, rechristened her to give her a desi second name. As cricketer Mohammed Kaif was a big draw at that time, his last name was used. Ayesha had initially thought of Katrina Kazi as her screen name, but later did a rethink. The initial print material for Boom had Kat’s name as Katrina Kazi, but that was passed off by as a printing error. But then in Bollywood, a known surname matters.

Jan 152018

From using guns bigger than her face without blinking an eyelid, to savagely and singlehandedly taking down her enemies like it’s nobody’s business; Katrina Kaif is undoubtedly the new superwoman in the block.

After flooring us all with her badassery in ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’, Katrina is back with a bang with her upcoming movie ‘Thugs of Hindostan’.

Unless you were living under a rock all this while, there is no way on earth you wouldn’t be surprised about ‘Thugs of Hindostan’. With a star cast that has names like Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Katrina Kaif, and ‘Dangal’ girl Fatima Sana Shaikh; this movie deserves to be on the list of most-anticipated movies of 2018.

And if the stellar star cast wasn’t enough to take our excitement to a pinnacle, Katrina intrigued us further by sharing this picture of her with Aamir Khan and ace choreographer Prabhudeva, as the trio sweat it out while rehearsing a song for the movie.

There are no doubts that Katrina is a great dancer and when you mix the expertise and tricky style of Prabhudeva with her dance style, sparks are sure to fly. Will this be another ‘Kamli’ moment?

‘Thugs of Hindostan’ is being helmed by Director Vijay Krishna Acharya, who has earlier worked with Katrina and Aamir in ‘Dhoom 3’.

Well, we honestly can’t for the movie to hit the theatres on November 7, 2018; but more than that, we can’t wait for the two ‘Thugs’, Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan, to work together for the first time.
