Indiafm.com has published the story details of Amitabh Bachchan & Ben Kingsley starrer Teen Patti. The film is directed by Leena Yadav ( Shabd). If you have missed it, here it is…the basic story of Teen Patti….

Ben Kingsley & Amitabh BachchanPerci Trachtenberg (Ben Kingsley), widely regarded as the world’s greatest living mathematician, meets Venkat Subramaniam (Amitabh Bachchan), a reclusive math genius from India, who has cracked a theory that could redefine the principles of probability and randomness.

Aware that he is on the precipice of an extraordinary discovery, one that could find applications across various sciences, Venkat is encouraged to test his theory in the real world. But what starts out as an experiment between a charismatic young professor and an eccentric older one soon descends into a game neither of them can control.

 Convinced that Venkat’s discovery has the originality and significance to change the narrative arc of mathematics, Perci understands that Venkat’s theory, in essence, questions the idea of what is random and what is fated.

A surprising and deeply moving redemption, initiated by Perci, closes this stupendously modern film that is as much about the private equations of honour and chance, as it is about knowledge that can change the world.

Its too much of philosophy for us! Can someone please dissect it for us in simple and straight words. But ya, it sounds interesting for sure! We will be looking forward to it.

mithun chakraborty

After a gap of almost 19 years, Amitabh Bachchan and Mithun Chakraborty will work together again if everything goes all well.   The film is Vivek Sharma’s Buddham Sharanam Gacchami. The duo were last seen in Agneepath.

The film will be produced by Vivek’s film production banner Film Zone. Its a well known fact in the industry that the two veteran actors are not on the best of terms. During his heydays, Bachchan smartly calculated all his moves and played  dirty with many, pretending as if he knows nothing.  Shatrughan Singh, Rajesh Khanna, Mithun Chakraborty, Dharmendra – they all had many bitter experiences with Big B, anyone can give shitload of dope.

Mithun, though bitter about Bachchan, doesnt speak out publicly against him. Its always “No comments” when its about Bachchan. Same with others, except Shatrughan Sinha who doesnt shy away from firing his shotgun. With Bachchan, its the standard reply to every controversial question. Conclusion is simple to draw, he is holier than thou and the world around him is bitter. Or its all just imgaination of an idle mind. Huh! But if the two veteran actors come together, it will be interesting to watch for sure!

abhi n shweta

 

Abhishek Bachchan and his sister Shweta Bachchan are on the cover of the new issue of fashion magazine L ‘Officiel. Here’s sneak peak. Daddy Amitabh Bachchan has posted the pics on his blog.

Now about the cover – its shot in london. But Abhishek and Shweta on the cover of L’Officiel ? on what basis ? Being fashion conscious or trend setter ? They are none. Well, Abhishek is atleast an actor, or trying to act. But Shweta ? All it matters is the surname. Thats it. Isnt it ? We will remain the same, inglorious bastards, cynics, skeptical about everyone’s success. Huh!

srk-chak-deIts still not all well between Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. They just pretend, afterall they are good actors. 

If gossipmongers are to be believed, Shah Rukh Khan will not be attending the forthcoming India International Film Academy (IIFA) Awards, of which Bachchan is the brand ambassador.

Since the last few years, the Wizcraft guys (organisers of IIFA Awards) have been trying their luck to get Shah Rukh Khan attend the awards.  But Shah Rukh has skipped it every year, for some reason or the other. And this year, its the same story.

Afterall, we arent the only one who think IIFA stands for India International Film Awards of Amitabh & Abhishek Bachchan. 

ram-gopal-varmaControversy’s child Ramu doesnt want to sit silent. After Censor Board banned his jana gana rann promo of the new film Rann, Ramu has now decided to move to High Court to appeal againt the ban.

The film stars Amitabh Bachchan,  Ritesh  Deshmukh, Sujeet and Paresh Rawal in the lead. 

Here is Ramu’s letter about the ban and his plan to move to High Court.

The Censor Board has decided to refuse to certify ‘Jana Gana Rann’ for Public Viewing.

The Censor Board order alleges that the promo violates guidelines 2(xix) of Section 5B2 of the Cinematograph Act 1952 and also constitutes an offence under The Insult to National Honours Act, 1971.

 This action of the Censor Board is arbitary and unconstitutional. Guideline 2(xix) of the Section 5B2 of the Cinematograph Act 1952 says :

“national symbols and emblems are  not shown except in accordance with the provisions of the Emblems and Names (Prevention of Improper Use), Act 1950.”

 According to this interpretation by the Censor Board, no Indian Film can show the Tricolor, Rashtrapati Bhavan or the Parliament House. And, if the Censor Board did take that position, they could ask us for relevant cuts in the promo. In the whole promo of  2 mins and 10 secs there are two shots of the same for exactly 8 seconds.

The Second objection raised by the Censor Board is The Insult to National Honor Act amended in 2003. The relevant section (Section 3) states as under:

 “3. Prevention of singing of Indian National Anthem, etc.

Whoever intentionally prevents the singing of the Indian National Anthem or causes disturbance to any assembly engaged in such singing shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years, or with fine, or with both.”

The act relates to preventing the singing of the National Anthem in public or causing disturbance to any assembly. In this case there is no such violation.

Article 19 guarantees freedom of speech and expression and freedom of trade amongst others fundamental rights. Every citizen has the right to freely express and freely carry the trade unless it is contrary to the peace and integrity of the country. By denying me the right to release this promo to the public at large, the Censor Board is violating my fundamental right.

Amitabh BachchanEven at 67, Amitabh Bachchan is busy as usual. Here are some new developments about his films..

2. Bachchan recently recorded a song for Ramu’s film Rann. He recorded the song with his good friend and music director Aadesh Srivastava.

3. Bachchan is not playing news editor Prannoy Roy in his new film Rann. Ramu clarified it in an interview recently. Rann is based on the way the news channels operate and manipulate news for better TRP’s. Rumours have been floating around for long time that Bachchan’s character in Rann is based on NDTV Channel head Prannoy Roy.

Here is the first promo of Ramu’s ( Ram Gopal Varma) new film Rann. The idea looks interesting but we can read controversy all over it. You dont play with national anthem, Mr Ramu!

Rann has Amitabh Bachchan, Sudeep, Ritesh Deshmukh, Gul Panag, Paresh Rawal, Rajat Kapoor, Suchitra Krishnamoorthy and Rajat Kapoor in lead roles.

Insider dope – Rann’s publicists have been calling up the news channels and asking when are they going to play the Rann promo on air. They are just waiting for it to create controversy and the right buzz for the film.

IIFA, popularly knows as India International Festival of Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan (or India International film Academy), will be held at Macau this year from June 11-13th.

iifa1So, Whats new ? Well, new location, same old shit, same naachgaana and big fat cheques for Wizcraft ( the organisers) and the Bachchan family. According to gossipmongers, IIFA is a big money making racket and nothing else. It gets all kind of possible support from the host country, almost everything is sponsored, sells tickets at high prices and more money from tv rights. All on the name of promoting indian cinema. Indian cinema ? Just look at the nomination list and its easy to guess what cinema they promote.

Awards ? Who cares! And Amitabh Bachchan is the brand ambasador for IFFA…whatever that means!!

If you dont belive in what IIFA stands for, you can check out the nomintion list here. Abhishek bachchan has been nominated in not one, not two but fucking three categories! why cant they just hand him the award ?  Why take so much trouble to announce the nominations ?

Sujoy Ghosh has officially released the first look of Aladin (Amitabh Bachchan and Ritesh Deshmukh) on his blog. But looks like these are stills fom the promotional music video of the film. Sometime back, Amitabh Bachchan released few pics of the same film on his blog. Bachchan looks sexy in this get-up but it looks like a bad hair day too.  Hav a look and let us know what you guys think.
