We all are witness to Vidya Balan's acting prowess and her dancing excellence. No wonder then that director Santosh Sivan didn't blink an eye before approaching Balan for a dance number based on the traditional Mohiniattam dance form, in his yet to release film titled Urmi. The song has been choreographed by the well known south dance director Ulhas. Not only is Vidya performing a dance number but she has an extended part in the film as well. This Malayalam film is a period drama set in the 15th Century and deals with the killer of Vasco Da Gama. The leading actors of the film are Genelia D'Souza and Prabhudeva. Vidya has completed the shoot for it but another famous actress, who is also known for her Indian looks and exceptional acting skills, would be doing a number in the film as well.

If it's a Shahid Kapoor film, there must be some heavy duty dancing. Or so it seems, going by the way the music in his father's directorial debut Mausam has been moulded to accommodate Shahid's dancing shoes. According to a source very close to the project, the film's aesthetically-inclined director Pankaj Kapoor had initially planned an exclusive heavily melody-based music score based only ragas. In fact, Pritam Chakraborty who's doing the music score in Mausam has just recorded a raga-based love melody in the voice of Rashid Khan. Says Pritam, "It was meant to be only a small music piece. But when Pankaj-ji heard the tune he wanted it as a full-fledged song." Pritam admits the music in Mausam would be heavily melodious in the tradition of the great love stories down the ages from Bobby to Love Story to Ek Duje Ke Liye to Saawariya. But now just...

But, insiders reveal another story about the whole rejection of the script. They point out that the film had three main heroes in it and Salman Khan would have to share screen space with three other heroes and this was not to the liking of Salman Khan, and he opted out of the project.

Sajid Nadiadwala's Anjaana Anjaani is being shot in Us but is missing one of its crucial crew members - choreographer Ahmed Khan. He was denied a visa for the shoot.
Ahmed was supposed to leave on December 30th for New York. However he was told by the authorities that there was an issue with his name and they would get back to him in 15 days, which did not happen.
The rejection has come as a big shock to him. The frustrated Ahmed says, "It's very unfortunate that this kind of discrimination is still happening. I haven't been even informed on what grounds they have
rejected my visa! The funny thing is that I have been to the Us a month and a half back, and this isn't my first trip to the country. In fact, I have been to the Us many times, so for them to disallow me...

Shahid Kapoor, Vishal Bhardwaj and Sriram Raghavan were present a week ago when Amole Gupte and the children of his school Aseema for impermanent slum children screened their first film at the M.E.T College in Bandra (Mumbai).
It was a moving moment for Shahid who empathizes deeply with issues related to children and has in fact done a film on children’s education Paathshala for his childhood friend Ahmed Khan, and has also done a film Wah Life Ho To Aisi with child actors at the helm.
Shahid was so moved by the filmmaking effort of the children at Aseema that he has now offered them all.

Shahid has been distracting all those around him with his new priced possession. This new sophisticated camera accompanies him everywhere, be it the sets of Ahmed Khan’s Paathshala or Ken Ghosh’s Yahoo.
The popular youth icon is found taking pictures in between his shots. So when there are flashes all of a sudden, now everyone knows it is Shahid’s doing.
Shahid being a perfectionist is also often seen discussing about lenses and angles with experts in the field. Guess he takes more photographs than photographers take of him these days!
