The Evergreen Nightingale Completes 70 Years of Singing

Lata Mangeshkar, the nightingale of India, completes seven decades of singing melodious songs for Indian films. She sang her first movie song in 1942 for the Marathi film “Kiti Hassal”.

Lata was forced to become a playback singer because of her father’s death in 1942. At an age when young girls play with dolls, Lata was forced to become the bread-winner for her family. But she has no regrets today. Lata says if her father had not passed away, she might have chosen classical singing over playback singing. So, Hindustani music’s loss has turned out to be Bollywood’s gain and how!!!!!

Anurag Basu’s Barfi, delayed yet again. First, Ranbir sited date issues and now, its the film’s lead lady, Priyanka Chopra who is unable to give dates for the film.

The film’s release has been delayed twice already and now, once again, it may be delayed further – reason being Priyanka Chopra.

Says a source close to the film, “Only Priyanka’s portion remains to be shot, the film is complete. The producers have already postponed the release from July 13 to August 31 to give Peecee to devote a couple of days. But she’s already started on Zanjeer.”

If buzz is to be believed, Ranbir Kapoor, frustrated with the delay time and again, has personally asked Priyanka to block two days in her calendar, for Barfi.

Basu on the other hand supporting Priyanka says, “Our schedules went haywire and all the actors had to re-adjust their dates. Priyanka tried her best to accommodate us. I’m sure she will manage to give us the two crucial days.”

Meanwhile, the dubbing of Basu’s other leading lady Ileana’s is being worked upon.
Says he, “Ranbir has no dubbing to do since he plays a deaf and mute character. I’m happy to say Ileana’s Hindi has improved and she can confidently dub her own lines. Not bad for a girl who couldn’t speak the language when she started.”

Deepika-Ranbir will not get cosy!

Director Ayan Mukerji is planning to avoid any kind of intimate scenes between the former lovers, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone, in his upcoming flick, though the film is a romantic one.

According to a source close to the film, “Considering the kind of close friendship Ayan shares with Ranbir, he’s aware of the relationship the actor shared with Deepika. At the same time, he was also well aware of their split when he offered his film to her. His story has a few intimate scenes between the lead pair.”

Initially, both Deepy and Rabir were quite okay doing the intimate scenes. “Keeping in mind that they’re thorough professionals, it would be natural to expect them to play their parts as actors.

However, that time the shooting had not started. Now that filming is underway, Ayan is having a change of mind,” says a source. The source later said that the director later didn’t want to retain the scene.

Though the ex lovers are now good friends, the comfort level between them is not the same.

Says the source, “Though they’re like friends, doing intimate scenes for the camera is a different thing altogether.

So if Ayan senses any awkwardness on part of either of them, especially Deepika, in the intimate scenes, then he’d rather do away with them. If that comfort level is not there to be seen on camera, then that could affect the overall chemistry they share in the film.”

Barfi’s biggest secret out!

Anurag Basu is very upset about the loss of his film Barfi’s big surprise element.

Ranbir’s “old man” look is for his upcoming film Barfi!

Basu confirmed the news, and added, “I was at the airport when I first caught a glimpse of Ranbir and that too on mute. I was shocked. I thought someone had put Barfi!’s first look out there without my knowledge!”

Basu says he made some frantic calls, and was told that it was an ad. “I caught the complete ad later and was taken aback with what I saw. Ranbir’s getup in the TV ad is almost identical to that of his old-age look in Barfi!. I was disappointed.”

A source close to the film added, “Anurag was very angry. He and his producer UTV had taken great pains to keep the look under wraps. But with the ad, the look is out and so is the big surprise.”

When asked if he has had a word with Ranbir about the issue, Anurag said, “Yes I have. But I have also shot several TV?commercials with Ranbir in the past and I know that he sticks to the brief that he is given, without asking any questions. I spoke to him a couple of days back and he simply smiled. When Ranbir smiles usko sab maf hai.”

Basu does not deny being disappointed. But he is in an exceptionally forgiving mood.“What can I say and what can I do? We had really taken a lot of pain to guard his look and keep it under wraps. But I guess it had to happen this way. So it’s fine now.”

Unlike Shahrukh and Unlike Shahrukh and Irrfan, Aamir never detained abroad!

Not alone Shahrukh Khan, but Irrfan Khan has also been stopped a number of times international airports for sudden checks. However, Aamir Khan who also shares the same surname with Shahrukh and Irrfan, has never been stopped for inquiry.

“I was never detained,” Aamir Khan told reporters.

On Thursday, Shah Rukh was stopped at the New York airport for nearly two hours. This was the second time SRK had to face such an embarrassment. Though the US immigration authorities apologised, yet, the incident did not go well with New Delhi. They reacted telling Washington this “habit of detention and then apology” won’t do.

Irrfan said: “Even I have been stopped many-a-times at airports at immigration.”

“Whenever you cross immigration, you give your passport and they would ask you the purpose of your visit. And then they would suddenly check something on their computer and their perception changes,” Irrfan told reporters, at the launch of the DVD of “Paan Singh Tomar”.

“They take away your phone and do not allow you to call anyone. They call the police and take you in and you can’t question them. This is system’s ignorance…Their system is not foolproof. When all verifications are properly done, then they leave you,” he added.
