It is a popular plot point in many action films: ending up in the wrong place at the wrong time… Or actually for us action fans it’s more like: in the right place at the right time, isn’t it? Because it is exactly where the fun is at. The Hindi film Commando uses this plot piece as well and proves to be kind of a mix of Rambo and, yeah well, Commando; Bollywood style.

A girl named Simrit (played by Pooja Chopra) runs away from home because she is forced into marrying the bad guy (Jaideep Ahlawat). While doing so, she bumps into a commando on the run named Karan (Vidyut Jammwal) who saves her. Together they flee into the woods, getting into a hairy situation.

Aiyaary is a Persian word I had come across in Devaki Nandan’s Khatri novel in which he referred to them as shape shifters and the tricks they performed as Aiyaary.

The beautiful and gracious Adah Sharma, who was last seen in Hasee Toh Phasee, has many reasons to smile about these days.

Adah Sharma, who has already started shooting for the film, told Bollywood Hungama "Although I cannot speak anything about my role in the film, all that I can say is that I have been signed opposite Vidyut Jamwal. This is definitely one of the craziest roles ever I have done so far. Since my character requires a lot of action, my formal training in gymnastics and Kalaripayattu is coming extremely handy for me. It feels really good to see Vipul sir and Deven sir putting so much of faith in me." Commando 2, which is being directed by Deven Bhojani,...

Vidyut Jamwal, who was last seen 'in action' in the forgettable flick Bullet Raja, has been sorely missing from B-town for some time now. It now seems that this man is all set to storm the Bollywood scene with many films in his kitty. For starters, Vidyut, who impressed everyone with his martial skills in the film Commando is now getting all geared up for the film's sequel Commando 2, whose shooting will kick start in Mumbai from today. The sequel is directed by Deven Bhojani. Speaking about the film, Vipul Shah (who is producing the sequel) said that they are extremely proud of it and that everyone is expecting them to make something better and bigger. On the other hand, Vidyut Jamwal said that while Vipul Shah is someone who understood action, Deven Bhojani is someone whose detailing has simply floored him ever since he has seen the action serial 'Pukar' of the filmmaker.

While it was Nidhi Subbaiah of Ajab Gazabb Love who shot for a few scenes with Riteish Deshmukh as his wife for Great Grand Masti, there was a sudden change in the casting even after the film went on floors.

Great Grand Masti, the third installment of the sex comedy franchise, is all set to roll. While the three leading men, Vivek Oberoi, Riteish Deshmukh and Aftab Shivdasani have already started with their share of 'Masti' on the sets, the makers were still facing a dilemma when it comes to the leading ladies. Earlier we had reported that actress Mishti, who debuted with Subash Ghai's Kaanchi and model turned actress Ankita Shorey were roped in to play the female leads. And now Urvashi Rautela too has been roped in for Great Grand Masti. However, Urvashi is more in the antagonist zone since the film has been inspired from the first installment of this franchise, Masti. Prior to this, there have been many names that have been speculated to be a part of the film. While Nidhi Subbaiah was initially signed to play Riteish Deshmukh's wife in the film,...

Lara Dutta's comeback film Abhi Nahi Toh Kabhi Nahi is all set to roll. While earlier we had reported the details of the lead star cast, we also learnt that the film will be a family entertainer. Now, it is being said that Sanjay Kapoor and Pooja Chopra are the new names added to the star cast and the two will be playing a major role in the film. Abhi Nahi Toh Kabhi Nahi is said to be the love stories concentrating on different generations, from the old to contemporary love stories. While Himansh Kohli and Sanah Kapoor represent the teen love, Kay Kay Menon and Lara Dutta play a married couple and even the head of the family Pankaj Kapur has a love interest in the film. Though the name of his leading lady has been kept under wraps, rumours indicate that Pooja Bhatt will be playing the role.

After Gang of Ghosts, Meera Chopra is all set to start with her next venture in Bollywood. The actress will be co-starring alongside Pooja Chopra of Commando fame, and former Miss India Hasleen Kaur in a film titled Zindagi Ek Pal. As the title suggests, the film is a light-hearted drama filled with adventure as the three girls set out to explore a life of their own.

New Delhi, April 23: Anurag Kashyap recently presented the first look of award-winning documentary 'The World before Her' to raise funds for the movie's nationwide campaign.

On the occasion Kashyap said, "When I saw this, it impacted me immensely and makes you think of what are we doing. We have come to that point where we make the women believe that for her to be someone or empower herself, she either needs to get into the general idea of being beautiful or using violence as a mean.

The film is based on former Miss India Pooja Chopra, who said, "It's a heavily emotional moment for me as it's my story, and more than.

Pooja Chopra had to postpone the shooting by a few months of her next films with Vipul Shah – Roonagar Ke Cheete and Commando 2 due to her leg injury. She had an accident on 28th December 2013 after which she immediately went under a treatment and had 50 stitches. She is advised to take rest for 4 months and will resume shooting once she recovers.

“When the filmmakers came to see me in the hospital, I told them to go ahead with the film with someone else. They refused point blank saying that they were very clear that they wanted me to be part of their film. Therefore, the entire schedule has been pushed back by three months,” said Pooja, who is currently recovering.

These past few years Bollywood changed a lot regarding the picturisation of songs. A lot of songs were used in the background describing the situation while the video showed you every emotion that goes with the song. This year Bollywood went back to the big, beautiful, and mesmerising picturisations that this industry is known for.

Just take a look at some of the songs that have left an everlasting impression …

Nagada Sang Dhol – Goliyon ki Raasleela Ram-Leela

Bollywood is known for its larger than life dance sequences and with a director like Sanjay Leela Bhansali at the head of Ram-Leela one can only expect nothing less. Nagada Sang Dhol, featuring Deepika Padukone, is a song that belongs in the larger than life category.

The grandeur of the song with the huge sets, color coordinated clothes and the folk madness captures the essences of the rich Gujarati culture on the big screen perfectly.

Welcome 2014! As we all gear up for a new year and hopefully a new beginning, Bollywood has some stories to complete in the coming year. The list of sequels for 2014 is one promising list as the prequels of these particular films have been majorly appreciated and applauded. Here is your list to know what to look forward to!

Dedh Ishqiya

The 2010 film Ishqiya starring Naseeruddin Shah, Vidya Balan and Arshad Warsi was indeed one of the best films of that year, and now on 10th January, 2014 we have its sequel Dedh Ishqiya coming out with Madhuri Dixit, Huma Qureshi, Naseeruddin Shah and Arshad Warsi in the lead roles. With Madhuri’s ‘Humari Atariya’ ada and the interesting trailer of this film, we really have our bets on this sequel!

Shaadi Ke Side Effects

This film is a sequel to the Rahul Bose-Mallika Sherawat starrer Pyaar Ke Side Effects.

Every year the Film Industry is showered with bundle of newcomers from star kids to TV stars to outsiders. Some survive through their immense talent, hard work and capabilities while some fizzle out even before they can be noticed. 2013 has been a great year in introducing some of the best new crop of talents in the industry. To say that the year was full of surprises would not be wrong. Let’s have a look at the Best Debuts of 2013, who surprised us and left us craving for more.

5. Amyra Dastur (Issaq)

Amyra made her debut with Issaq, a desi adaptation of the age old Shakespearean saga-Romeo and Juliet. Though the movie failed to re-create the magic of the classic love story onscreen, debutant Amyra Dastur was appreciated for her sweet and simple portrayal of Bachi. A few more movies and performances to decide how good she actually is but for now,...

While the rest of film industry was celebrating New Year the Commando actress Pooja Chopra injured her foot and spent the last of 2013 on a hospital bed. On Monday afternoon when Pooja was sipping tea by the window of her apartment in Lokhandwala, the glass from the window-pane collapsed on the floor. One of the pieces pierced her left leg and the actress started bleeding profusely.
