The controversy over Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s mega movie `Padmavati’ refuses to die with the royal family of Jaipur jumping on to the bandwagon. The release date of film Padmavati has been deferred. The voice of support can be heard from some corners of the Bollywood fraternity. 

Veteran actor Shabana Azmi took Twitter to express her support.

Karni Sena is consistently threatening Actress Deepika Padukone and Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

The Bollywood film Padmavati, based on a poem about a Rajput queen written by 16th century Sufi poet Malik Muhammad Jayasi, has sparked protests across the country over “misrepresentations” and “distortion of facts”

Responding to the controversy, leading lady Deepika Padukone said, “As a woman, as an artiste, as someone who has worked and given two years of my life to this movie, I feel hurt, I feel angry , but I also think it is extremely funny that people are reacting like this to a film. I am feeling so many emotions at this point.”

Perturbed but not silenced, Deepika, however, continues to promote the film in her capacity. While talking to DNA After Hrs, the actress said, “I have full faith in the judicial system of our country. I know no wrong will be done.” She has received protection from Mumbai police and is currently function amidst high security. Mumbai police have even warned protestors to maintain law and order and abide only by the constitutional freedom given to them.

The vitriol over Bollywood film Padmavati went up a notch as a BJP office bearer from Haryana said he would double the bounty on the heads of actor Deepika Padukone and filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, to Rs. 10 crore. Surajpal Amu, the party’s chief media coordinator who made the announcement, also threatened to “break the legs” of Ranveer Singh, who plays the role of Alauddin Khilji, the Delhi Sultan obsessed about the legendary 13th Century Queen of Chittor.

After the most vocal group Rajput Karni Sena, which had attacked Bhansali in Jaipur and vandalised a theatre in Noida few days ago, now threatening to harm the lead actress Deepika Padukone by referring to the nose chopping of ‘Surpanakha’, few more shocking threats have been issued by outfits around the country.

‘Rangoon’ role not based on anybody living or dead: Kangana https://glint.tv/movies/rangoon-role-not-based-on-anybody-living-or-dead-kangana/ Wed, 22 Feb 2017 05:55:59 +0000 https://glint.tv/?p=7832

Actress Kangana Ranaut, whose character in the forthcoming film “Rangoon” is said to be loosely based on actress-stunt woman Fearless Nadia, says her role is not based on any real-life person.

A lawsuit was reportedly filed against “Rangoon” maker Vishal Bhardwaj on grounds of copyright infringement, by Wadia Movietone Pvt Ltd, which has claimed that Kangana’s character Miss Julia is based on real-life Australian stunt actor Mary Evans, popularly known as Fearless Nadia.

Asked about it, Kangana told IANS here: “I think there is some legal hassle around that. First of all, we cannot comment on a matter when it’s already in the court, but we can assure you that it’s not based on any living or dead person.”

The 29-year-old actress added that “Rangoon” is “completely a fictional story” and the “characters are fictional as well”.

“Rangoon”, also starring Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor, will release on Friday. It is set during World War II.

Expecting ‘Rangoon’ to be film of the year: Kareena https://glint.tv/movies/expecting-rangoon-to-be-film-of-the-year-kareena/ Mon, 20 Feb 2017 08:18:34 +0000 https://glint.tv/?p=7807

Actress Kareena Kapoor Khan is expecting “Rangoon”, which features her husband Saif Ali Khan, to become one of the best films of this year.

Kareena, who attended the screening of the Vishal Bhardwaj directorial here on Sunday, said: “I am expecting ‘Rangoon’ to be the film of the year because it is directed by one of my favourite directors, Vishal Bhardwaj. I have worked in ‘Omkara’ with him. I think people are also expecting a lot from this film.”

“I am also excited about Saif because he was so good as Langda Tyagi (in ‘Omkara’). It is one of his iconic roles. In ‘Rangoon’, his character is very striking. For the first time, he is playing a Parsi film producer.”

Kareena, 36, said she normally doesn’t like to attend a film’s screening.

“Saif was surprised to see that I am going to the trial. I had to come because it is an emotional film because of Saif, Vishal and Sajid (Nadiadwala) with whom I’ve worked previously,” she added.

The period drama also features Kareena’s former beau Shahid Kapoor and actress Kangana Ranaut. It is releasing on Friday.

Kareena said Bhardwaj’s films have the most arresting portrayals by negative characters.

“There are three stellar actors in this film. Kangana, Shahid and Saif — all are brilliant actors and there will be a competition in the film to give their best. I am expecting nothing less than the outstanding performances of the trio as currently, they are the best in the industry,” said the actress, who is loving motherhood.

Workwise, Kareena is looking forward to start the shooting for her next film “Veere Di Wedding”.

“We are going to start in May. Therefore, I am quite excited about it. The story is about four girls and there isn’t any male lead, which is very interesting,” she added.

Alongside Kareena, “Veere Di Wedding” features Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania.

Film Fraternity stands united with Sanjay Leela Bhansali https://glint.tv/movies/film-fraternity-stands-united-with-sanjay-leela-bhansali/ Sat, 28 Jan 2017 13:57:20 +0000 https://glint.tv/?p=7413

In a death blow to creative liberty, Sanjay Leela Bhansali was roughed up by a Rajput youth group called Karni Sena in Jaipur. The director was attacked for making a film on the life of Rani Padmini with focus on her affair with Allaudin Khilji. Not only was Bhansali attacked by the Padmavati set at the Jaigarh Fort was also vandalized.

The members of the Karni Sena reached the fort to stop the making of the film till the filmakker changed the alleged distorted narrative and things went out of hand. For Bollywood this is certainly a shocking incident where the creative liberty of the filmmakers stands at stake.

Shocked and appalled by the incident so many artists and filmmakers took to Twitter to show their solidarity with Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Padmavati. They also condemned the horrific attack on the filmmakers rights and freedom.

Amid the chaos, an old tweet of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has gone viral on social media in which he had written that art cannot have any restrictions.

“Art can’t have any restrictions or limits: PM @narendramodi,”

Tweeted PMO India when Modi inaugurated a new building of the Bombay Art Society in Mumbai. “Art brings our history to life,” he had said at the event. But the tweet is being massively shared on social media because of the incident that happened yesterday which is nothing but restricting art.

 

Here’s what the Film Fraternity has to say about the attack:

       

 

 

 

 

The Actors of the film Padmavati also took to twitter:

 

 

 

 

 

Sanjay Leela Bhansali has cancelled his shoot in Jaipur and returned to Mumabi. We hope that the perpetrators are punished for their wrongdoings.

Rangoon | A passionate love story amidst the 2nd World War https://glint.tv/movies/rangoon-a-passionate-love-story-amidst-the-2nd-world-war/ Fri, 06 Jan 2017 06:20:25 +0000 https://glint.tv/?p=6842

The trailer of one of the most awaited movies of the year, Vishal Bhardwaj’s Rangoon has been released. The movie Stars Kangana Ranaut, Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor, the film is a set in Burma (Now, Myanmar) and as expected, it’s high on both emotions and intensity. 

 

While Saif Ali Khan plays a filmmaker in love with Kangana Ranaut, a popular actress of that time. On the behest of the British government, when she’s asked to visit the war-front to entertain the Indian soldiers, she meets Shahid Kapoor, an Indian soldier fighting the war. 

In true Vishal Bhardwaj style, there’s much grandeur in the trailer and amidst all the action, the underlying emotions are hard to miss. Also, you can definitely expect landmark performances from the cast.

Shahid defends his arranged marriage with Mira Rajput https://glint.tv/movies/shahid-defends-his-arranged-marriage-with-mira-rajput/ Thu, 05 Jan 2017 10:36:35 +0000 https://glint.tv/?p=6821

There was a time when people found out who they were spending the rest of their life with in the mandap. We’re sure there are parts of India where that still happens but that’s certainly not what happened with Shahid and Mira. Arranged marriages are not better than love marriages, but they’re not worse than love marriages either so we decided to stand up for this institution – the unnecessary dragging of Shahid Kapoor on Twitter for his comments about how and when he fell in love with Mira. 

When Shahid and Mira were on Koffee with Karan recently, a lot of Karan Johar’s questions were about how they got married. When asked when he realized he was in love with Mira, Shahid said, “That happened after she got pregnant. We got very close.” Mira agreed, and said, “In an arranged marriage, it just brings you both close in a very special way.” 

Talking about his pre-courtship period with Mira Rajput, Shahid Kapoor disclosed that Mira’s mother mistook the marriage proposal thinking that it was for Shahid’s younger brother. 

“Mira’s mom thought it was for my younger brother since he is age-wise more in her bracket than me. I was apparently too old.”

Shahid also said, “I am a huge supporter of arranged marriage. I think the graph of arranged marriage is you come with no expectations. Then, if you hit it off, each day gets better. So the process of falling in love happens after you’re married. Which is unlike in a romantic relationship, where you always feel like the peak of love was in the beginning. Lot of times you’re looking back and thinking, when will those days come back.”

These are great points in isolation. No one should force women to get pregnant immediately after getting married, and no one should force women to pick marriage over ambition. Except… that’s not what happened with Mira. When Shahid announced his wedding 18 months ago to a then 21-year-old, lots of people raised eyebrows over their age difference. But on the show, the couple genuinely seemed happy and comfortable with each other. 

In a country where the culture of dating is still fairly new, how is this an awful way of meeting people? Why are your friends allowed to set you up with someone, but not your parents? 

Also, are love marriages in any way superior? That those couples don’t fight, have issues, or ever get divorced? Are you saying that two consenting adults who got married and had a baby while dealing with heightened scrutiny from lakhs of people can’t talk about how happy they are with each other without the internet telling them to shut up because their parents were the reason they met?

Shahid doesn’t want father’s hyper traits https://glint.tv/movies/shahid-doesnt-want-fathers-hyper-traits/ Fri, 04 Nov 2016 06:59:20 +0000 https://glint.tv/?p=5256

Actor Shahid Kapoor says his father and actor Pankaj Kapur is a “bit hyper and over-protective”, adding that he hopes he doesnt get these traits from him while bringing up his daughter.

The actor and his wife Mira Rajput welcomed their first daughter in August. Shahid talked about his father during an appearance on an episode of “Vogue BFFs”, which will air on Saturday on Colors Infinity, read a statement from the channel.

Read I’m not good enough to do plays: Shahid

“I think my dad is a great guy! I don’t think a guy can be that good, to begin with. There are things about him that I think are amazing, there are things about him that I don’t want to be like that with my child,” Shahid said.

The “Haider” star added: “He is an extremely nice person and he has always been a friend to me, those are the things that I would want. But he’s a bit hyper and he’s a bit over-protective. So, those are the two things that I hope I don’t do to my child.”

Asked about a piece of advice that his father had given him when he found out that he was going to become a father, Shahid said: “Actually more than a piece of advice: what my dad told me was that ‘Now, you will know all the complaints that I have always had against you’.”

“Because the one thing my dad keeps telling me is that I don’t call him enough. And I pretty much call him almost every day! But he still always complains about the fact that ‘we don’t connect enough, we don’t spend time enough’ and finally when obviously Misha happened, he told me, ‘Now you will know what it’s like when you miss your child’.”

On the work front, Shahid will soon be seen in Vishal Bhardwaj’s “Rangoon” and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming magnum opus “Padmavati”.
