mumbai mirror guzarish cut

Today’s edition of Mumbai Mirror has a quote from our post “Check your CQ – Bhansali’s Guzaarish“. Actually the full article is on our post.

You can read the full post here. Its on Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s new film Guzaarish. The film stars Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai and newcomer Aditya Bal. And the Mumbai Mirror article is here (see pic).

Here is the most interesting part. To quote from the article…

However, a source close to Bhansali said, “Why are people in so much of a hurry? These things can really upset a director. Guzaarish has got nothing to do with any of these three films and Sanjay is very upset with the constant spotlight on the film. It is just a silly prank as no one has the soft copy of the script, so it’s not possible.”

Dear Mr Source (we have no clue how close you are to Bhansali)

We are ready to put a bet. Lets do it. What we said, if thats not the plot of Guzaarish then we will shut our blog. And if its the same what we said in our post…”Guzaarish = Charulata + The Painted Veil + The Sea Inside plus sprinkle some magic in it” then ? Or should we wait till its release ? whatver you want to do Mr/Ms Source!

It seems to be a lucky day for cinema maniacs like us. We were surprised to find the script of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s new film Guzaarish in our mailbox.  Yes, yes!! Thank you, whoever did the good deed of the day! (if you got anything to share, do remember to mail us at moifightclub@gmail.com).

We will reserve our comments on the script for the script review post later on. But as we read the script, we were trying to imagine the visuals, and all we could see was three films – Charulata, The Painted Veil and The Sea Inside.

We are starting a new feature – CYCQ – Check your CQ (Cinema Quotient)! If Guzaarish is Charulata meets The Painted Veil meets The Sea Inside, see if you can crack the story. Do sprinkle some ‘magic’ in the plot.

The film stars Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai and newcomer Aditya Bal. Mail us or comment here!

kites11First, the not so exclusive news : Kites is 3 hours long! Ok, 2 hours and 50 minutes to be precise! Like us, if the multiplex-distributors’ strike has also made you desperate to step into the theatre to watch any new release (exception – Kal Kisne Dekha doesnt count, even if we get free tickets…we have seen its “kal“) then get ready to be compensated soon, atleast with the duration. Because its three hours of Hrithik Roshan singing, dancing, jumping, kissing and everything possible. After all, its produced by Papa Rakesh Roshan. 

And now the exclusive one : Kites scored a Big “zero” at the Cannes Film Festival. But its a gutsy story! The name justifies it all. BIG pictures, big film, big stars, big film festival and a big zero. So Papa Roshan alongwith beta Hrithik Roshan, director Anurag Basu, Barbara Mori and Amit Khanna (Big Pictures) landed up at Cannes to promote the film. Now, why would you go to an international platform like Cannes and make a fool of yourself ? What will they say – From the makers of Krazzy4 ? And how they paid 2cr for plagiarising a song! Dont believe us, take a look at its promo.

Is there anything exciting about it ? (Barbara doesnt count if you think she is hot) Doesnt it look like Dhoom1 meets Dhoom2 ? Hollywood churns out movies with this kind of action almost every year, and nobody keeps the count. So who would get impressed with such a trailer ? They tried hard to sell the film. Met five big international distributors and everyone rejected the film. All five. No interest, no buyer. Cannes result = zero.

BTW, Rakesh Roshan was really hoping for a big international deal because lot of it is in spanish! Ahh…if only someone could tell him that they have seen this kind of stuff ages ago! Its may be first for him, or his beta!

KrrishAfter Koi Mil Gaya, he wants them back! But not as the friendly Jadoo this time. He wants them to be big menace, powerful villains. The superhero played by Hrithik Roshan will get to beat them and save the world.

Also, the threat will be much bigger in the third part of the series. Tentatively titled Krrish2, the story will move beyond the family issue or anything to do with india. Post-Kites, Hrithik wants to go international, and on the lines of Hollywood superheroes, the aliens will be on the mission to destro the world. 

But there is a problem! According to gossipmongers, the writers developing the script of Krrish2 are not too excited with Hrithik’s idea of aliens. They feel alien villains will be too alien for desi junta. The script is still in development and has not been locked yet.

Papa Roshan also wants a fresh pair in the film. Ofcourse beta Roshan cant be replaced and so he is thinking about a new actress opposite him. Among the many other names, Deepika Padukone is a strong contender for the role. Once Kites is released, Rakesh Roshan will focus all his attention on Krrish2.

Mid-day has published the plot details of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next Guzaarish. It stars Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai. Here is more about the story of the film from the report.

The film bears similarities to John Badham’s Whose Life Is It Anyway? and will see Hrithik in a wheelchair for most of the scenes.

Hrithik plays Ethan, a radio show host. Aishwarya plays a married nurse who is also Hrithik’s caregiver. The film also deals with the controversial subject of mercy killing/euthanasia. Ash’s character is interesting because she plays a married woman who gets attracted to Hrithik as the second half progresses. The film has dark tones throughout.

Paraplegia is an impairment in motor and/or sensory function of the lower extremities. It is usually the result of spinal cord injury or a congenital condition such as spina bifida.

And according to our sources Hrithik plays a magician whose trick geoes wrong during one of the performances and thats how he becomes paraplegic. Looks like Bhansali is In the mood for “Black” again!

….No, we are not talking about her kissing scenes in Kites!

Indian media has already devoted much newsprint and airtime on the Hrithik Roshan-Barbara Mori’s kiss story. If  the news is true then Hrithik and Barabara share more than a passionate kiss in their forthcoming film Kites. And this is creating quite a buzz…..What does Hrithik Roshan feels about the kiss ? Is papa Rakesh Roshan embarassed about it ? What does director Anurag Basu has to say ? Or How is wife Suzzane Roshan reacting to the kiss scene ? Its a BIG big deal!! Well, it might be a big deal for the Roshans and the audience but it seems Barbara has done much better than that. Almost nude scenes. If you dont believe us, watch these two clips from her mexican film La Mujer De Mi Hermano ( My Brother’s Wife).

Clips of the new film Kites was recently shown at the Cannes Film Festival 2009. Produced by Rakesh Roshan and directed by Anurag Basu, Kites has Hrithik Roshan, Barbara Mori and Kangana Ranaut in lead roles. Like us, if you could not manage to Cannes for whatever reasons, here it is.

kites11All you Hrithik Roshan fans, its finally here! The first trailer (promo) of Kites!

Produced by Rakesh Roshan and directed by Anurag Basu, Kites has Hrithik Roshan, Barbara Mori and Kangana Ranaut in lead roles.

The film’s first trailer was showcased at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival. But whats the connection between Cannes and Kites ? We didnt get it. Cannes is shit concerned about Kites and we are sure that Roshans feel the same about Cannes. Then ? Well, Reliance got shitload of money and they need to do something with it. So, there they are, at the mecca of film festivals promoting kites for the indian media and whoever else is willing to listen. Anyway, check out the Kites trailer.

(ps : its recorded from tv screen. so the quality is not good and difficult to say anything looking at it now)

The official website of the much awaited Hrithik Roshan starrer Kites have been launched. Here is the web address – http://www.kites-thefilm.com/ . Though the website is not completely functional yet but it has an introduction about the film and few new pics.
