Now these are exciting Piggy Chops news! NFL??? Hello! I would say that could easily lead to a red carpet entrance right into the heart of Hollywood. I am surprised that they haven’t discovered Priyanka Chopra yet!! Freida Pinto has made it big with Slumdogs but Priyanka is such a hottie, very hard to miss. Once offers start bouncing in we will miss her! Bollywood won’t be able to afford her anymore.
I am so happy for her. She looks glam. Radiant. Supersexy. You go, girl!! :-)
Teri Meri Kahaani didn’t live up to my promise, I am afraid. But if you enjoy the old Hillary Duff flicks, then you will like this one…
It had its redeeming qualities. Some of the songs are really catchy. Great sets and locations. Shahid and Priyanka always nice to watch, even though I take points of for Shahid’s stylist. 60s and 2012 haircuts sucked. It seems that only in Lahore in 1910 they knew what looks good on our glorious hunk Shahid. the haircut didn’t seem to deter the female attendance. Our Bombay Theater in Queens was packed to the rim!!
Maybe I have just outgrown the phase in life where I think legions of LOLs and smiley faces and dull one liners in twitterverse are fun to watch when bleeped onto the movie screen. If that’s what our era will leave as a legacy we’re doomed.
This movie shines being mostly dialogue-free. I mean who needs dialogue anyways? so overrated in a romcom….
Also, I thought in the first part where the jodi meets on the train the director decided it should have elements of a silent movie, so you thought Charlie Chaplin or the Marx Brothers are about to jump out on the screen…
Teri Meri Kahaani was highly uneven throughout. It had some nice elements but it felt patchworked, laboured. Silly. Sound editing was horrible. It had some major flaws. but I will also admit that I had a good time watching it. Nothing in life is perfect. So what if this movie had its flaws, it was still very entertaining.
Kunal Kohli shows great promise as a director and I am very hopeful that his next movies will be more polished as he is gaining more experience.
Do we wonder what their real life relationship is all about? I always worry that I will wonder…. because it makes me feel being part of the gossip machinery.
which I am.
(moment of introspection, realization, I have no life!:-))
Any actor is aware of the danger of being typecast. For some actors it’s the kiss of death. Some survive it. Some make a decent living out of the character they created, like Johnny Lever for instance. Some must be really annoyed at the end of their careers.. ( maybe Johnny Lever?)It’s an interesting phenomenon when you think about it. Typecasting is not just fault of the film industry but also of the audience who likes to see their hero or heroine in a particular way. And actors themselves have strengths and weaknesses. For instance it’s hard to find a good villain or good comedian so once you prove you can pull it off realistically naturally you will be approached over and over to play that particular role in variations.But I have never heard of someone who was typecast into playing multiple characters until Priyanka came along :-) that’s a new one.After seeing her in the “What’s Your Rashee?” I was weary of seeing her in another film with costume changes and I by-passed “7 Khoon Maf” until it came out on DVD. I liked that one so much better.To hear that she has been cast again in a movie where she plays 3 different roles makes me laugh. I’ll go along with it, since Bollywood seems to have a fascination with those multiple roles, there is no hope for a hardcore Bollywood fan to get away from it.Most of the time I find these type of roles just silly, merely costume changes that actually undermine the actor’s integrity. The worst example that comes to my mind is “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi” where they made poor Shahrukh look absolutely ridiculous in his nerdy and ‘supercool’ avatar.
Priyanka Chopra’s sense of humour leaves Kunal Kohli speechless!
Tuesday, April 17, 2012, 12:12 [IST]
Actress Priyanka Chopra is quite well-known in the industry for her jovial and lively nature. But, many of us are actually unaware of PC’s humorous side. Reportedly, Priyanka’s hidden sense of humour left filmmaker Kunal Kohli speechless.
Reportedly, when Kunal Kohli approached Priyanka for Teri Meri Kahaani, saying that she has to play three different characters in it, a jovial PC responded, “Why not more?” Priyanka explained the reason behind her urge to play multiple characters in the movie.
A leading daily informed that PC told Kohli since she played 12 different roles in What’s your Rashee? and killed 7 of her husbands in Saat Khoon Maaf, she wished the director could have come up with more than three characters for her in Teri Meri Kahaani. Priyanka’s lovely sense of humour left back Kohli with no words.
Shahid and Priyanka made a great screen couple in Kaminey and their filmi reunion is something to look forward to.
Kunal Kohli talks with enthusiasm about his new movie, which he wrote directs and produces but it’s still to be seen if Teri Meri Kahaani can measure up to Kaminey and the innovative cinema of Vishal Bhardwaj.
From what Kohli says, this film will be about soul mates and about what looks like reincarnation..
kya hua, a deja vu?
I am on cloud nine :-)
Anyways, will be nice to see Shahid and Priyanka together again. When Shahid was caught slinking out of Pri’s chambers early in the morning, remember that? I bet they were just reading lines. they were only REHEARSING!! :-) now we know. all the excitement over koi bat nahi…
Shahid-Priyanka chemistry in ‘Teri Meri Kahaani’ better than ‘Kaminey’
Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra will be next seen together in Kunal Kohli’s “Teri Meri Kahaani” and the filmmaker says that their onscreen chemistry will be far better than it was in “Kaminey”.
“In ‘Kaminey’, the characters Sweety and Guddu were good friends and they were together for only eight scenes. However, the chemistry of Priyanka and Shahid in my film is much more than that. They will be sizzling and will be seen together in 78 scenes,” Kohli said in a statement.
“Kaminey”, one of the big hits of 2009, revolved around gangsters, politicians and cops. This was Shahid and Priyanka’s first film together and people gave thumbs up to their on-screen chemistry.
Kohli’s “Teri Meri…” is based on a story from 1910 to 2012 and will span three decades separately. The film will hit theatres June 22.
Denying the reports that the film is a love story, Kohli said: “My film is not a love story. It’s the story of three different lives and proves that love is a promise forever. We have chosen one hundred years to talk about love. We didn’t want it to be soppy or melodramatic.
“Love, according to me, makes you smile. Since I grew up watching films by Yash Chopra, who is my idol, I wanted my hero and heroine holding hands, looking back and singing in the rain. The film is about soulmates who live forever,” he said. – IANS
It’s a rare occurrence for actresses to come clean on what kind of jobs were done on them to make them look perfect.
They should admit to cosmetic surgery, for our sake already, women who don’t want to go under the scalpel and can’t compete with the perfection of a surgically enhanced human being. We need to pay the price at the end, feeling miserable about our imperfections. These models and actresses they walk around knowing that they cheated nature but withholding it. They get sculpted, photoshopped, dewrinkled, deflated after pregnancies, hair-volumized, extended. I mean it’s not fair. The whole world is in on this big Houdini act, the big illusion. I resent that :-)
When you look at Priyanka’s nose in her early movies…. THAT WAS THE REAL THING! maybe then we saw already something slightly modified. This big secretive club of the surgically enhanced is very Illuminati and it’s time to wikileak it, to demystify so that we ordinary women don’t have to feel miserable about ourselves.
To blame nose-jobs on deviated septums is the new It-thing. I have the feeling it’s something plastic surgeons recommend their patients to say to explain why they look so different all for sudden.
I liked Shruti Haasan before and was actually happy to see that she had a nose that gave her face some character. She is such a beautiful girl. Oh well… I shouldn’t be throwing stones perhaps. I wear eye make-up, lipstick, I trace my eye-brows and I give it my best shot to cheat, in my own little way. But hey, that’s not cheating because it’s obvious and I don’t pretend I don’t wear make-up :-)
And look at this pretty face there, I am so jealous, Shruti doesn’t need anything, just a little lip-gloss. Darn, I am so jealous, haha. I am proud of her though that she admitted to a nose job. She’s got guts.
No heroes left for Priyanka Chopra? Arre vah, Piggy Chops! :-) My grandma always used to say “It’s a curse to be beautiful” and had she read this article about Priyanka my grandma would have had her Bingo! moment..
We can definitely see Akshay Kumar’s eyes sparkle ….
what’s the poor man gotta do…. haha
HEY, THE GOOD NEWS: John is single again, so there’s one, and Arjun Rampal’s wife hasn’t blacklisted her yet…. that’s number two.
….. i don’t know if Sendhil Ramamurthy speaks any hindi. But why not, Katrina Kaif didn’t know it..
oh, we’ll find her someone! not to worry, Piggy Chops! :-)
Here’s why films opposite the big guns – Akshay, SRK, Salman, Ajay, Aamir, Abhishek and Hrithik – are unlikely for the actress
At the rate she’s going, Priyanka Chopra may have few heroes left to work with. Those currently acting with her – Shahid Kapoor (in an untitled film), Hrithik Roshan (Krrish 3) and Ranbir Kapoor (Barfi) – won’t sign any films with her in the immediate future to avoid looking like a stale pair on screen. Other B-Town biggies have different problems with the actress. Here’s why some A-List stars may not work with PC.
AKSHAY KUMAR Akshay and Priyanka have given many hits in the past, including Andaaz and Aitraaz. They were very close at one point, but ever since rumours of an affair broke out in 2004, Twinkle Khanna banned him from signing future films with her. Doesn’t look like the wifey is going to change her mind anytime soon.
SHAH RUKH KHAN Once again, rumours of PC’s growing friendship with a star actor have upset his wife. So much so, that Gauri Khan has struck PC off her personal guestlist. Seems like it’s a matter of time before she’s struck off as SRK’s leading lady too. When Gauri’s friends have been told to avoid the actresss, there’s no way the husband will get the green signal to work with her!
SALMAN KHAN When they first acted together in Mujhse Shaadi Karoge, the problem then was her proximity to the film’s other lead actor, Akshay Kumar. Later, Salman’s brother Sohail approached her to do a cameo in their home production Main Aurr Mrs Khanna, which she declined. Salman took this personally and swore never to work with her again.
AJAY DEVGN The last time Devgn and PC worked together was in Blackmail (2005). They were paired together in Naam, but she walked out of the film after barely three days of shooting. Though PC cited date issues, the buzz was that she’d made those same dates available for one of Akki’s films. Naam still hasn’t seen the light of day, something Devgn is yet to forgive PC for or even forget.
ABHISHEK BACHCHAN They were last seen in Dostana, but things soured between them post the release of the film. Both of them wanted to dance to the same popular track at an awards show. While PC had selected it first, when AB Jr wanted the same song, she got irritated. Eventually, she backed out of the event to show her displeasure.
SHAHID KAPOOR Currently, both are working together in Kunal Kohli’s untitled film, but Shahid has decided not to do any more movies opposite his former flame. Things went sour after they broke up, as Shahid felt she was giving out negative stories about him to the press. At a recent ad shoot, they barely spoke to each other.
SAIF ALI KHAN While the two officially don’t have any problems, Saif’s girlfriend Kareena Kapoor doesn’t like PC. And that is a problem.
HRITHIK ROSHAN Krissh 3 could be their last film together. Hrithik’s wife Sussanne is very close to Gauri Khan, and the fact that PC wasn’t invited to the Agneepath success party at their home is a sign of things to come.
AAMIR KHAN Priyanka hasn’t done a film with Aamir Khan yet. No one knows why, but if it was something that had to happen, it would’ve happened by now, no?
it felt like seeing one of those Indian classics ON SPEED. I am not surprised Sanjay Dutt got scared when he watched himself! He is a grandiose, GLORIOUS villain. Hollywood could only wish to have villains of that caliber! I also enjoyed Rishi Kapoor as supporting villain…
The movie is handsomely gory, and for that reason probably a one time watch. Hrithik is magnifique to watch! actually, you want to watch him in slow motion….over and over and over. Karan must have had fun. I loved the picturization of Shah Ka Rupta, couldn’t find a clip for it. but it will be available soon, I hope. I love those all men dance sequences, a pleasant change.
And, btw, I want to thank Karan Johar or Malhotra for not using white background dancers for this movie. They always stick out like sour thumbs in an all-Indian cast.
Priyanka is stunning as always. She is almost too pretty to be real. Just the right amount of everything. I loved her in this movie, she had the fresh scent of spring flowers, lighting up the screen with her beauty.
The scenes are epic, colorful, energetic.You get drawn into the drama even though you might not always follow motivations and intent.
This movie is a banquet laden to the rim with rich foods that will take three days to digest. In the category of Lady Gaga wearing her meaty dress…actually that’s exactly how I felt when the credits started rolling and I got out of my seat, come to think of it… even though we went for Bengali sweets afterwards.
One thing I really didn’t understand.. please someone explain it to me. how can you carry Sanjay Dutt on your shoulders after you have been stabbed with a 12 inch butcher knife from the front, the back, sideways… into the liver, smashed to a pulp, hanged upside down. I mean Vijay must have been clinically dead by the time he gets hold of Kanchu to lift him up and hang him. Second point, no one there from the village to give the man a hand? :-)
Stunning cinematography. Highly recommendable. But leave your kids at home.
because here comes Agneepath! a story of vendetta and probably love. It’s a remake of a 60s movie with Amitabh Bachchan but it comes with star-power of its own.
Hrithik Roshan looks buff and brooding in this new trailer, flexing his muscles preparing us for a tidal wave of emotion. Of course, I hope, as it is sometimes with these darn trailers that look so good, the whole movie then won’t collapse like an under-cooked souffle. But I mean, what can go wrong with a beautifully menacing Sanjay Dutt who sends you chills over your spine and seductivePriyanka Chopra who, when she smiles, looks like a kiss of spring..and I bet, smells like one.
Okay, this is what CAN go wrong: Karan Johar is a master of creating color-coordinated sets. There will not be one thing out of place but he has a way of ruining close- to- perfection movies with some unexpectedly cheesy moments, and/or cheesy dialogues. And THAT the trailer won’t show. Karan Malhotra even though a first-time director, he has got plenty of experience, good films he worked on in the past as assistant director. So now I am curious to see him at work, his vision.If he figured out what did NOT work in My Name is Khan, then this Agneepath could become his golden ticket.
What makes me so happy is to see Hrithik re-emerge from a series of flops with full power ahead. He is a wonderful actor and if Agneepath will be a success he’ll be on top of the Bollywood world, cuz that’s where he belongs.
Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra will be next seen together in Kunal Kohli’s “Teri Meri Kahaani” and the filmmaker says that their onscreen chemistry will be far better than it was in “Kaminey”.
