Older generation can look forward to refresh their memory. People will be now talking and comparing their cinema era with the contemporary ones. Thanks to Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra.

This ‘Rang De Basanti’ director is said to be planning to bring a biographical movie on Guru Dutt. A remake of the original, ‘Kaagaz Ke Phool’, actors Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif are going to repeat the role of Guru Dutt and Waheeda Rehman. Both the actors have impressively made to look exactly like the yesteryear classic’s original couple and their photo has already become a cover-page of the popular magazine, ‘Cineblitz’. The biography was already attempted by Guru Dutt himself, but the movie turned out to be a flop. Written by Nasreen Munni Kabeer, the biography includes the life story of Guru Dutt.

MJ Introduces Hrithik to Western Dancing, Hrithik-Zayed as a Mythological hero

This Greek faced hero floored the audience with his mind-blowing dance movements in his debut movie, ‘Kaho na Pyaar Hai’. Then after, he went on to give impressive twists and turns in most of his movies. Think Hrithik and people will imitate his ‘stop-stop’ dance steps of his song ‘Ek pal ka jeena’ from ‘Kaho na pyaar hai’.

Hrithik Roshan would be next seen as the mythological hero Ram in ‘The Legend of Rama’, but did you know that this green-eyed heartthrob used to imitate MJ in his childhood? Hrithik's sister, Sunaina revealed that the tall actor is an avid fan of the late King Of Pop. She said, “Duggu must’ve been eight or nine years old when he used to imitate Jackson’s moonwalk. MJ’s ‘Thriller’ was his favourite, the moment that song used to play on TV, Hrithik used to get up and dance. In fact, it was MJ’s music videos that introduced Duggu to western dancing. He did a Michael Jackson at every family function.”

Now, is that the secret behind his striking grooves?

Yes, it’s true! Hrithik Roshan and Zayed Khan are to be featured as the mythological characters in Sanjay Khan’s ‘The Legend of Rama’. This movie is going to be co-scripted by Zayed’s father and Hrithik’s father-in-law Sanjay Khan and Briton-based author Faroukh Dhondy. And any guess who will don the King Dashrath’s role? The Bollywood daddy, Amitabh Bachchan!
With the script in its final stages, Faroukh Dhondy feels that both Hrithik and Zayed are perfect for the role of Ram and Laxman respectively. He terms the movie as a modern format of Ramayan. “It's not a modern but a traditional adaptation but with the grammar of a modern films. This means it would be the Ramayan in The Lord of the Rings genre,” he adds.

Hmm, wonder how these stunning, handsome heroes will look with bows and arrows. Lets waits and watch..

MJ's FUNERAL AT STAPLES CENTRE

DRUG SEDATIVE - NURSE QUOTE
Several narcotics found in late King of Pop Michael Jacksons rented home in Los Angeles included powerful sedative Propofol, also known as Diprivan, according to a law enforcement source. used as part of inducing general anaesthesia in the operating room, and for heavy sedation of patients who are intubated in the intensive care unit. Cherilyn Lee, a nurse who worked for Jackson, has revealed that the singer begged her for the drug. Nurse said that just 4 days before his death, a member of Jackson's staff called her, and that she could hear the singer in the background saying: "One side of my body is hot, it's hot, and one side of my body is cold. It's very cold." "He wasn't looking to get high or feel good and sedated from drugs. This was a person who was not on drugs. This was a person who was seeking help, desperately, to get some sleep, to get some rest," Fox News quoted. police investigate the possible involvement of prescription drugs in Jackson's death.

MJ'S FUNERAL
MJ’s former wife, Debbie Rowe says she is undecided over whether to fight for custody of their two children. Ms Rowe’s lawyer issued the statement after media reports that she had vowed to fight for custody of the two children she had with the late pop icon. At the time, MJ’s family has announced that a memorial service will be held next Tuesday in Los Angeles for the pop star. Some 11,000 free tickets will be made available for the event, which will be held in the city’s Staples Center Arena. Meanwhile footage of Jackson on stage two days before he died has been released. The film which was recorded on the 23rd of June shows him rehearsing a routine at the Staples Center for a series of UK comeback concerts which had been planned for this month.

Fans are asking me similar questions, but instead wondering whether Michael Jackson's funeral may be Muslim. In 2007, his brother Jermaine Jackson told the media that Michael had shown interest in the religion, and there was brief speculation that Jackson converted from Jehovah's Witness to Islam. Michael Jackson Funeral Set for July 7 at Staples Center The Michael Jackson funeral is scheduled for 10 a.m. on Tuesday, July 7, at Los Angeles’ Staples Center. Somehow it seems appropriate. It will be a day for the Greatest Show on Earth to follow The Biggest Funeral in History. Jackson would love this, that’s for sure.

Earlier speculation had the funeral being held everywhere from Neverland to Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. "The family and I are very proud to see all of you come out here and help us with this whole situation because we know that we do have fans all over the world and we know that we're loved all over the world”. "But one thing that I wish could have happened — I wish that Michael could be here to see all of this. (We) had to wait until something happened like this before it could be realized. Michael was a superstar ... he was loved all over the world."

Riteish Deshmukh to act in RGV’s 3-D Horror film titled WARNING

After a long time people will wear red glasses! We've heard many times RG Varma being tagged as a 'mad' director more than a 'maverick' one. But his madness can reach such heights that he might just about warn you that something creepier, scarier and nastier is slowly going to engulf one and all. Urmila in Bhoot looked creepy, his crow in Phoonk looked scary and wait till you see Riteish Deshmukh look nasty in Ram Gopal Varma's first ever 3-D horror film titled WARNING. Doing by RGV's wacky sense of humour, he also stated that his underline concept of the film is going to be - Ram Gopal Varma's warning. He says, 'If you think you have experienced everything there is to experience in fear, just wait for Warning. It's a 3-D horror film with an extraordinary experience of an extremely heightened sense of realism because the viewer is no longer removed from the happenings on screen and would feel that he is up there along with the characters on the location and is in as much danger as they are." RGV adds, "The tag line of Warning is - You Might Die. It is also going to be a film with the first ever 4-D experience, the fourth dimension being 'Death'. So far, I have finalized Riteish Deshmukh as one of the cast."

The director needs to take care of two things before his warning fails to ignite the fear. Working with 3-D poses unusual challenges for the horror genre. First, the filming process requires a lot of light, which is not especially conducive to creating spooky basements and lurking shadows. Marketing is also a challenge. So far the 3-D films that have been released in theatres in India since its inception have all geared to peoples and families.

RGV is the mother of invention when it comes to experimenting with different subjects and genres, but if there was ever a moment when horror needed to be reinvented, this is it, because we aren't telling you....we're warning you! Wait and watch the magic of RGV’s WARNING with red glasses on the eye.
