Sharad Kelkar did not want to punch Ajay Devgn in 'Baadshaho'

Sep 012017

Actor Sharad Kelkar says raising his hand on a senior actor like Ajay Devgn for an action sequence in “Baadshaho” was hard for him.

The film, directed by Milan Luthria, released on Friday.

Talking about the experience, Sharad said in a statement: “There are several action sequences in the film which required me to punch Ajay sir. Given that Milan Sir likes his sequences to look as authentic, it was really hard for me to raise my hand on Ajay Sir. But, I have to say that Ajay Sir is an amazing professional and an even better human being.

“He realised I was hesitant and told me to relax and just concentrate on my role. We get along very well since we have worked on a TV show earlier. He told me, ‘Sharad, your role demands you beat me, then just do it.’ That really helped.”

Sharad Kelkar used to host a reality TV show called “Rock-N-Roll Family”, which Ajay Devgn used to judge back in 2008.

TV actress Sanjeeda Sheikh accused of beating her sister-in-law

Television’s popular actress Sanjeeda Sheikh has fallen into a legal trouble.

Reportedly, Sanjeeda’s 22-year-old sister-in-law Zakerabanu Zakir Hussain Bagban has registered a domestic violence case against her and her maternal family, which includes Sanjeeda’s brother Anas Abdul Rahim Sheikh and mother Anisha Sheikh.

The actress’ sister-in-law Zakerabanu alleges that while conversing with her father over the phone on May 27, the trio – Sanjeeda, her brother and mother – began to yell and beat her.

On the day of the incident itself, Zakerabanu flew to her hometown in Ahmedabad and was admitted to a local hospital in Sarkhej Roza. It was on May 29 that Zakerabanu lodged an FIR at Sarkhej Police Station, suggests Mumbai Mirror report.

Sanjeeda Sheikh‘s lawyer immediately filed a petition seeking to suppress Zakerabanu’s complaint.

The tabloid further states that Sanjeeda’s lawyer counter-alleged saying that Zakerabanu had a disturbed relationship with her father owing to his orthodox mentality, which majorly hampered her equation with husband, Anas, and made it problematic for her to adapt the open-minded atmosphere at her husband’s house.

The report also adds that on the day of the alleged incident, Sanjeeda’s sister-in-law brought to Anas’ notice that she was under the weather and had quit her training from a make-up institute in order to meet her parents at Ahmedabad.

Sanjeeda was amidst her daily soap shooting when the case was filed against her and her family.

Fresh developments in the case on August 30 brought interim relief for Sanjeeda as the Ahmedabad High Court waived the service of notice.

“The Hon’ble Court has passed an order in favour of my client by stating that the investigating agency should not take any coercive steps against her. In other words, the Hon’ble Court accepted our submission that the FIR is baseless, bad in jurisdiction and merely filed to harass my client,” informed Sanjeeda’s lawyer to Mirror.

Sanjeeda Sheikh started her TV career with ‘Kyaa Hoga Nimmo Kaa’. She gained fame for her role in shows like ‘Ishq Ka Rang Safed’ and ‘Ek Hasina Thi’.

'Pehredaar Piya Ki' TV series will now be a late night show

Celebrities

Aug 302017

Calm down, Pehredaar fans!

It was announced yesterday that ‘Pehredaar Piya Ki’, one of the most controversial shows on Indian television in recent times, will go off air.

This decision comes days after Broadcasting Content Complaints Council (BCCC) decided to change the show’s slot from prime time to late night. The drama that revolved around an 18-year-old woman getting married to a nine-year-old boy received flak for its objectionable content.

Speaking to mid-day, producer Shashi Sumeet Mittal said that the decision to pull the plug on the show wasn’t taken abruptly. “It was a mutual decision between the channel and us,” she said.

Earlier this month, I&B Minister Smriti Irani had written to the BCCC, asking them to review the content of the show. Mittal, however, denies that the I&B Ministry had any role to play in the show being taken off air. “We didn’t have any pressure from anyone. In fact, after watching the show, the Ministry had allowed us to continue with it as they didn’t find anything objectionable.”

She added, “We had written the show keeping the prime time audience in mind. After the show was pushed to the 10.30 pm slot.

‘After Pehredaar was pushed to the 10.30 pm slot, we realised it wasn’t garnering the response we wanted. So we decided to pull it off air’ – Shashi Mittal

'American Horror Story: Cult' Teaser Is A Creepy Montage Of Clowns, Bees, Spiders & Bloody Teeth

Celebrities

Aug 202017

Clowns are cute and funny, but only when they are inside our TV screens or in a circus; not when we stay alone and have a clown, wake us up at 3.30 AM with his creepy smile. Honestly, I have nothing against clowns, but thanks to some brilliant movie directors, I can’t look past the image of them staring at us from one corner of a room. While we are discussing clowns, ‘American Horror Story: Cult’ is all set to premiere in the first week of September and its latest teaser is an overdose of scary clowns and bees. If ‘Annabelle: Creation’ wasn’t enough to frighten and scare the sh*t out of us, ‘American Horror Story: Cult’ is all set to creep our senses out. Watch the trailer here.

Reportedly, the co-creator Ryan Murphy earlier reportedly said that the seventh season will focus on 2016’s election campaign between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. However, we didn’t get a glimpse of any politician in the frame. All we saw was a montage of clowns, bees, rats, huge spiders, blood stained teeth occult puzzles and trippy sounds effects. Although some might argue that this teaser doesn’t stand close to any horror movie and we should compare it to any movie, but when it comes to creepiness, this movie is on point. If you are brave-heart, then watch out the premiere on September 5.

TV's hottest hunks want this Bollywood actress to be their sister!

Celebrities

Aug 072017

Karan Oberoi and Deepika Padukone

Karan Oberoi: I am ok with any Bollywood actress other than Deepika Padukone to tie rakhi to me as long as they look at me as a brother and they resonate with brotherly affection for me. Deepika, I have a huge crush on. So anybody other than her is OK.

Shashank Vyas and Tabu

Shashank Vyas: I would not mind Tabu tying me a rakhi because she seems strict and she resembles my sister.

Lavanya Bharadwaj: I don’t want any Bollywood actor to tie a rakhi to me. I respect everybody but I already have seven cousin sisters and one real sister. So my hands are full, let’s see may be in future if I’ll have that kind of bonding with someone.

Mrunal Jain and Kajol

Mrunal Jain: I would not mind having a sister like Kajol, who is always bubbly and happy and her presence makes the room light up with joy.

Shakti Arora: I think Tabu because she has that sister-like-feel. Whenever I see her films, it reminds me of my elder sister. I don’t want to choose anyone from the younger lot as I want to work with them and this might kill the chemistry.

Arjun Bijlani and Kareena Kapoor Khan

Arjun Bijlani:Kareena Kapoor because my cousin sister looks quite a lot like her.

Ssharaad Malhotra: Preity Zinta because she could make a good elder sister who is sweet, naughty and at the same time caring and understanding.
