Deepika will be soon seen in Chandani Chawk to China

Beginner Deepika Padukone is one of the few lucky newcomers who have got to play challenging roles right from the beginning of her career. Deepika started by playing a double role in Farah Khan's Om Shanti Om. Also she will depict a twin image in Nikhil Advani's Chandani Chawk To China. But it is heard that this time her roles are extremely different from each other.
It is known that in the first half of the film Deepika plays a character of the conservative Indian girl, while her other character is that of a Chinese girl, which appears in the second half. Now Deepika is not just dressing herself in a Chinese look but has also done all the action required for her character. Deepika went through some precise training to get her action scenes shot in the correct manner.
Speaking about her role Deepika revealed that it was extremely challenging. She did take up this film, as she would be doing action for the first time. She must say that doing Chandani Chawk To China is very exciting. She wishes she could say more about it. But as its release date is yet to be finalized she still can't reveal anything more at this stage.
If not missed out it can be recalled that the film was earlier known as Mera Naam Chin Chin Choo and also Made in China. Knowingly it is a semi- autobiographical film on its lead actor, Akshay Kumar's life, about a chef who is mistaken to be a martial arts expert.
Though Akshay is a trained martial arts expert and has done a lot of action, Deepika will not be seen as a Chinese doll.

Students asking about Shahrukh Salman spat

Lately it was known that Aamir Khan was troubled by the questions asked to him by some 9th standard students. All the kids were asking him about Shahrukh-Salman spat that happened during Katrina Kaif's birthday party.
Reportedly, n Friday, Aamir was at child artiste Darsheel Safary's school Green Lawn at Warden Road to launch the DVD of Taare Zameen Par by the hands of the school's principal. Darsheel's classmates too were present there. Aamir arrived at Green Lawn School at 11 am and left by 2 pm.
Aamir decided to take a tour through the school visiting all the other classrooms right from the primary section to the 10th standard after the DVD launch. He went to each classroom, swapped small talks and interacted with all the students. Aamir also gifted special notebooks to almost 1600 students.
Then when he was visiting class 9 students, some class nine students stopped Aamir. They stopped him when he was about to leave their classroom and said that they would like to speak to him. After talking to him for a few minutes they suddenly launched the attack, asking Aamir about the details of the fight that took place between Shahrukh and Salman Khan during Katrina's birthday party since he too was present there.

Aamir was astounded, as he did not expect a question like that to come from students. Initially, he had no words to say. But he soon collected his intellect about him and geared up to answer them.
He explained to the students that when two friends fight over an issue, the third friend should not get involved. It is the best to leave the two friends to resolve their differences themselves. The children seemed to be happy with Aamir's answer.
But the question still persists. What was the spat all about?

PNC filed a complaint against Sunny Deol

It seems that PNC and Sunny Deol are at loggerheads. It is heard that they have filed a case with the Indian Motion Pictures and Producers Association against Sunny Deol for not refunding a payment of Rs 50 lakh given to him as a signing amount two years ago, for a project that was later put on hold.
In their complaint to IMPPA PNC said that they had signed Sunny Deol for a film and paid him Rs 50 lakh in advance for their film Aayega. However, the film did not work out. Soon after, Sunny Deol was given other scripts to read by PNC. Still, he rejected all of them. Later, after a lot of uncertainty, Sunny stopped communicating completely with PNC. With no room for conversation on any project or the return of the signing amount, PNC was left in a pitch. PNC was eventually fed up and so filed a case at IMPPA against Sunny for the refund of advance payments made to him.
But it was known that Sunny was keen to do the film Aayega and that’s why he had accepted the money. The director of the project at that time was Rohit Shetty of Golmaal fame, whom Sunny was keen to work with. But soon after the project crackled out, Rohit curved out of the film. This disappointed Sunny. Later Sunny did not like any of the other scripts given to him and that's why none of the projects hit the floors.

R K Mukherjee, Vice President of PNC said that the complaint against Sunny Deol is a standard one, which they have lodged with the IMPPA. They would like to leave it to the IMPAA, which is a very fair body, to handle the situation and find a solution. All they want is closure and an amicable refund of their money from Sunny Deol.
