Singer, Music composer and actor Himesh Reshammiya is all set to shoot an item song with the sizzling Urmila Matondkar for his film Karzzz. The song is titled Tandori Nights and will be shot in Mumbai. Both have recently completed a 40-day outdoor shoot for Karzzz in South Africa and Johannesberg.

Urmila would be playing the character played by Simi Garewal in the original Karz. However original Karz did not have an item song for Simi. This is for the first time the duo Urmila and Himesh would be seen on the screen.

Himesh himself has sung the item song. Sunidhi Chauhan has lent her voice for Urmila. The remade Karzzz is being produced by Bhushan and Krishan Kumar and directed by Satish Kaushik. The film stars Himesh Reshammiya, Debutant Shweta Kumar (daughter of producer/director Indra Kumar), Raj Babbar, Urmila Matondkar, Gulshan Grover, Danny Denzongpa and Rohini Hatangadi.

Manish Malhotra has designed Urmila’s look in the movie. It will have pastel shades with shimmer and satin.

Well looks like Urmila will be scorching the screen yet again!

The Bachchan family
Mumbai, March 27 (IANS) While actress Lara Dutta has opted out of the Bachchans’ ‘Unforgettable Show’ world tour because of her knee injury, Akshay Kumar has decided to join it, though he will perform only at select venues.

The show’s organisers Wizcraft are now in the process of finalising seven to eight big stars from Bollywood to accompany Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan, and Aishwarya Rai at various venues in July and August.

‘Akshay is back in the Bachchans’ world tour. But he’ll join them only at selected venues because that is all Akshay’s schedules allow,’ said a source.

‘Likewise, at other centres we’re roping in other A-listers who will join the Bachchans as they perform all over the US and later Europe. In this way there would be a couple of big surprise guest appearances by marquee names in every city, though rightly the focus of interest would remain the Bachchan family,’ added the source.

Composer duo Vishal-Shekhar has been confirmed as a part of the tour. They will be accompanying the Bachchans for all their concerts, just like decades ago Kalyanji-Anandji used to be an integral part of the Big B’s concerts.

In fact, an album featuring Abhishek with guest vocals by the Big B that Vishal-Shekhar have been putting together for the last two years will finally be ready to coincide with the Bachchans’ world concert.

After wooing audiences with superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s item song for Krazzy 4, Rakesh Roshan and Director Jaideep Sen are all set with one more ace up their sleeve- an item song by dance king Hrithik Roshan!!!

The film is set to create a record of sorts with two superstars stars having their item numbers choreographed to the tunes of one song, “BreakFree”.

The promos of the stunningly choreographed Hrithik song will start airing this week. It is touted to have some of his best dance moves ever!

Says Jaideep Sen, “It was a delight to direct SRK and I must say the song is getting popular day by day. Hrithik’s song is on the same tune but there is a slight change in lyrics. He has danced brilliantly as usual and it shows. I am very lucky that two mega stars have danced on the title song for my debut film. Also Rakhi Sawant’s song is for the masses as she has a certain amount of class and is famous through her item songs. It was a great working experience with her as well!”

Krazzy 4 is a light-hearted comedy focusing on four Krazzy guys - Arshad Warsi, Rajpal Yadav, Irrfan Khan, Suresh Menon along with Juhi Chawla. Releasing on April 11, 2008, it is directed by debutant Jaideep Sen and produced by Rakesh Roshan under his banner FilmKraft.

Tibetans ask Aamir to skip Olympic torch relay

March 28, 2008 at 10:40 am | In Bollywood | No Comments

By Bollywood Hungama News Network, March 28, 2008 - 14:12 IST

That Aamir getting (read ‘championing’) social causes and eventually getting embroiled into controversies is nothing new. However, this time, it has stretched a bit too far. It was just recently, that it was announced that Aamir ‘The Perfectionist’ Khan would be one of the Olympic torchbearers, something that the Tibetan community in India has raised objection to.

They have told Aamir to simply distance himself from the Olympic torch relay that is to be held in China in 2008, so much so that a young protestor went to the extent of threatening self-immolation, if Aamir did not yield to the protests.

The reason cited for this protest is to express solidarity with the Tibetan struggle for freedom from China. Wonder what Aamir will have to say about it!
