Top chartbusters of 2009

Oozing freshness in every way, this expressive number from A.R.Rehman swept the music lovers off their feet. This fun-filled light number from the film ‘Delhi-6′ sung by Mohit Chauhan is still a hot favorite of music channels.
Dhan Te Nan
This edgy, energetic, and rustic number from ‘Kaminey’ has a touch of rock to it. Composed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the song has been sung by Sukhwinder Singh and Vishal Dadlani. This rocking number has topped the music charts of 2009.
Tera Hone Laga Hoon
This is by far the most romantic and soothing number of 2009. Pakistani Singer Atif Aslam has sung this song with Alsiha Chinoi. Pritam has composed a beautiful love ballad for the recently released film ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’.
All Izz Well
This youthful, campus number from ‘3 Idiots’ has given a perfect ending to the year. This fun track has raw energy and is filled with whistles in the background. Sung by Sonu Niigaam, Swanand Kirkire and Shaan and composed by Shantanu Moitra, it is a hot favorite among all music channels.
Salman Khan to hunt for real life unsung heroes
Bollywood star Salman Khan turns 44 this Sunday and as he awaits the release of his forthcoming period film ‘Veer’, he has launched a nationwide hunt for unsung heroes as to connect with the masses and also promote his flick.
This step comes as a natural following from Aamir Khan’s Bharat Darshan programme for the promotion of ‘3 Iditos’. So, there comes a hunt from Sallu Bhai for young men and women who have performed heroic deeds which the nation doesn’t know about.
Veer producer Vijay Galani confirmed the news saying, “You’ve heard correctly. Salman is launching a contest to find real-life unsung heroes. Since he has played the hero so often on screen, he feels real-life heroes deserve to be brought out of anonymity. We’ll be going to the remotest corners of India to select these unknown heroes. Finally one of them will be given the Veer cup personally by Salman at a function in Mumbai.”
’Veer’ has newcomer Zarine Khan opposite Salman. Other stars in the pivotal roles include former Miss UK Lisa Lazarus, Mithun Chakraborty and Jackie Shroff along with Sohail Khan and Bharat Dabholkar.
Vidya Balan takes up another challenging role
Vidya Balan is one actress in our industry who has constantly been under criticism for her mature looks and bad dressing sense, but at the same time, there is not one critic who has ever found any flaw in the characters played by her. Always up and ready for the challenging roles, she impressed everyone with the mature handling of her character in ‘Paa’ and now will again be seen in a totally different role of a earthy village woman in ‘Ishqiya’ with Naseruddin Shah and Arshad Warsi.
“I play a village belle,” she explains, “Yet I’m fully aware of my sexual charms and within the four walls of the bedroom, I’m unapologetic about using my guile and charm.’’
Yet again she has signed up to play Sabrina Lal, Jessica’s sister, in the movie ‘No One Killed Jessica’. “Yes, I am playing Sabrina Lal in Rajkumar Gupta’s film,” she said, “The minute I heard the role, I wanted to do it. It’s my first biographical role and a big challenge. I’ll be meeting Sabrina shortly.”
As the name suggests, the movie is based on the murder of Jessica Lal in 1999 which exposed the nepotism, inequality and corruption prevalent in Indian society.
Rann - Music Review
By now we are all well aware that Ram Gopal Verma’s movies don’t have songs just thrown in. His characters don’t break into a jig, nor are they singers. His movies have songs which are played in the background and suit the mood and setting of the scene. Obviously, such is the case for Rann, RGV’s brand new movie!
Besharam sung by Abhishek Naiwal who sings it like a war cry is a track which spits anger on the things happening around. It sounds more on the lines of Aarambh from the movie Gulaal.
Gali Gali Mein sung by a very effervescent JoJo is a funny yet very relevant track on the current state of our country. The music is ok, but gets too noisy at times.
The best track of the album comes in the form of Kaanch Ke Jaise sung by the ever dependable Sukhwinder Singh. It’s a track in which the protagonist laments rules. The lyrics are profound and metaphorical.
Kunal Ganjawala comes to rap on Mera Bharat Mahaan, which talks about all the ironical things happening in our country. It is ok in terms of lyrics, but the music sticks out like a sore thumb.
The title track Rann Hai is again a track which portrays anger through some wrong things happening around. Sanjeev Kohli sings it well, but the tone of the song is repetitive.
Remote Ko Baahar Phek is a fast-paced rap number sung by Jayesh Gandhi. It is more like a bunch of words have been thrown in without any rhyme with a few news channel headlines for good measure. It may work well in the movie, but as a stand-alone track it’s a naah!
Sikkon Ki Bhook The Vande Mataram Song starts off with some breaking news headlines from different news channels. Sung by Vardan Singh, this one too falls in the same genre as the previous tracks of this album.
Multiple music directors don’t do justice to this album, and the tracks have no appeal as a stand-alones. Most of them sound repetitive unlike Varma’s earlier movies which had some memorable soundtracks.

Emraan Hikes His Price to Even Family
After Jannat, Emraan Hashmi hiked his price to astronomical levels even to his own family. According to media reports, Emraan is demanding the Bhatts the same money he is charging others.
If we see Bhatts’ history, they never entertain superstars, and if Emraan continues this way, he will surely be kicked out of the Bhatt camp.
Let’s wait for the release of ‘Raaz – The Mystery Continues’ as fortunes change every Friday in Bollywood.
Check out these exclusive photos of Emraan Hashmi from Filmfare Magazine’s latest issue.
Now You Can Interact with Ranbir Kapoor
Bollywood’s current heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor launched his official Website recently at a grand event. The event was attended by Sikander Kher and Mughda Godse.
When every actor has an official website, why should our Ranbir stay behind? So he made a website www.myranbirkapoor.com and added everything about himself. He even has ‘Wall of Fame’… yeah, even I know that it is too early.
Anyways, you can find his childhood photos, family photos, movie photos and much more in his website.
So all your Ranbir Kapoor fans, don’t crash his server by visiting at the same time
Big B Caught Carrying a Gun at Airport
Amitabh Bachchan was caught carrying a gun in his hand baggage at Mumbai Airport. The police claim that he was carrying a Gun which had a different number from his license. Finally, Big B gave up his gun, and flew to Pune to film a Bollywood movie Teen Patti.
I respect Amitabh Bachchan as an actor, but how on earth did he think that he can carry a gun on a plane. The police are complaining about the registration number crap, but what about the main issue? As far as I know, a civilian can not carry a weapon while flying.
If it was some normal person, like you and me, he would have been behind the bars in no time… Big B was let to fly without any delay.
Indian police should be lauded for their effort!
Subhash Ghai Needs a Reality Check
Subhash Ghai thinks that the failure of his Salman Khan starrer movie Yuvvraaj is because of his staff, so the showman fired them and is looking for fresh minds.
Subhash Ji, the failure of Yuvvraaj is not because of your staff, it is because of your outdated script, terrible direction and horrible casting. Probably they resigned the job, because who would like to work with a bankrupt filmmaker. So stop saying in the media that you fired them because it is making you look stupid.
First Look: Kites
Here is the first look poster of Hrithik Roshan, Kangana Ranaut and Barbara Mori starrer Kites.
I have no idea why the leading lady, Kangana Ranaut, is kept away from the promotion. As you can see… she is nowhere to be seen in the first look poster. She was not taken to the Cannes film festival, where Hrithik and Barbara were seen behaving like childhood lovebirds.
Hrithik and his dad should know that foreign stars don’t do well here… it’s our desi stars who make the movie a hit. And Kangana Ranaut is definitely a big star now after the success of Fashion and Raaz.
Hope Kites does not turn out to be a Marigold. Remember the Salman Khan and Ali Larter starrer?

He has also decided to buy a couple of horses for his farmhouse. He also has an animal farm on his Panvel property.
A close source to Salman says, “Salman has grown up with animals around as his dad Salim Khan would have cows and other farm animals at their Panvel land. While shooting for Veer, Salman started taking care of the horses he was working with, as part of the bonding process. He also made special arrangements for their stay and food and made sure that none of the animal suffered while filming. After the shoot, every evening, he and ad man Bharat Dabholkar would go riding. Now Salman loves horses so much that he is planning to buy two. He is contacted all the best horse dealers in the country and will finalize a deal soon.”

In fact now I have decided to buy two horses for my farmhouse.” On the sets of Veer, Laxmi was Salman’s favorite horse. He says, “I was so attached to Laxmi that I must have fed her more biscuits than I have eaten in my entire life! We had the poor villagers all around while shooting who would not get proper water etc and here I had horse-eating biscuits all the time. But I made sure huge biscuit packets also came for the all children there.”
On an occasion Salman had to narrate about his favorite horse he said, “In between shooting for Veer, Laxmi was shooting on some other film when she fell into a pond and nearly died. After healing, she came back to shoot with me for Veer. This time she was scared and shy, especially with strangers, and it took a lot of effort to get rid of her fear. By the time we were done with the shoot of the film, everybody had become so attached to their horses that we used to talk to them more than with each other!”
