Bollywood Blind Item – February 2020 – 13

    This filmmaker has already released the first look of his next film that stars a young actress, who also happens to be somehow of an “IT actress”. Technically, it’s not really that but a lot of eyes are on this project so it’s super important that it does well.

    What is strange is how this director wants his famous friends to make special appearances in this film. Very strange, considering how professional he is. But if he is insisting on casting famous faces to get people to the theatres, it means he is feeling the heat!

    Yes, so he knows this project is very important for him, this actress and others. Well, it will be interesting now to see how it fares at the box office. As you know, this was like a ‘save face’ project for this director, the actress and her mentor/daddy.

    Let’s see…

    Back to the blind item, it’s really unfair for him to expect any actor especially a famous one to drop everything just to shoot a cameo with him. Some more, a cameo that needed a week of shooting. Well, he ain’t no King Khan whose friends will drop everything just for a couple of seconds in his film – on his request, of course.

    Let’s see if he is really so pissed at this actor that he doesn’t want to work with him again. Or…Were these KebabJo’s words?

    For now, check out the blind item below from PinkVilla.

     

    Bollywood Blind Item

    20090624_mysteryman_250x250

    Bollywood has several actor-director duos who are considered magical pairings in movies. Today, we are discussing about one such duo, who remained almost inseparable over the last few years. The actor, who’s a big name in the younger circuit, is also a major hit with the audiences.

    While he is considered as one of the most bankable stars of today, this top filmmaker was the one who helped him deliver his first major successful project and then, as they say, rest was history.

    The filmmaker teamed up with the star on two more projects, with both being blockbusters at the box office and suddenly, everyone started talking about their working chemistry.

    But now, when the maverick director has moved on to his next project, which is a female centric drama that stars an A-list actress, he actually needed a few of his friends to step in for special appearances. So he made an offer to his favourite boy and asked if he could spare him a week’s time to shoot the cameo.

    Knowing that he’s had a long standing relationship with the actor, the director was sure he won’t let him down. But the star did the unthinkable and flatly refused to do the role. He told him he doesn’t have the dates to accommodate to the project, which also was a fair reason, to be honest.

    People who know the filmmaker well also know that he isn’t well equipped to handle a ‘no’ from others, so when the actor told him this, he was infuriated. Apparently, they had a massive verbal argument where the actor tried to explain his situation, as he had already committed his dates to another project.

    But the director was in no mood to listen, let alone understand his plight and hung up the call. Last we heard, the cold war is still on and the director might not even sign the same hero for his next magnum opus that has already been announced.

    1. This is Alia’s next award winning performance. Looks like she’s the only one with talent. Anyway the awards are meaningless and one shouldn’t evaluate any actor on the basis of these fake awards, the worst being Filmfare.

    2. Alia’s booking her awards. She’s started 2020 with a big bang. Isn’t this her third Filmfare? Not that it matters, Filmfare can be bought and Alia had got hers at the buy 3 get 2 for free sale.

      1. Award winners aren’t respected anymore. Kjo and his minions have been getting loads of hatred on social media platforms. This will affect their upcoming movies, that would be an eye opener for them. They are now living in illusion. Paid comments and forced appreciation doesn’t bring stardom from audience.

    3. Admin, why is kjo so invested in Alia getting this film, it’s not like he’s going to get any money out of this. Why is he burning his night oil so hard for mediocre talent Alia? I mean she’s already become so unlikable amongst the audiences and kjo has so many other options now to help support his production house. Brahmastra has nothing to do with this film, and for that he’s already had PR set up, btw do RK and Alia have any kind of personal equation or it’s purely fake PR? Would love to know your opinion on both.

      1. Alia represents him in many ways. She’s the face of his minions, his child in some ways. He does co-produce films she’s part of, so he does make money. He used her to help Dharma make money in her films by simply acting as Co-producers. She does well, Dharma does well. He might end up getting a producer credit on this film too, just watch.

      2. Admin, reply? If we can take the time to read your website’s opinions and engage with it, then the LEAST you can do is Reply.

          1. Sorry man, but this reply wasn’t showing till today evening. Kept refreshing and finally all your replies showed today, but admin this seems to happen with the blind items too, somedays they all appears and the next day you get to only see the old blind item on the website. So been going to your twitter handle and coming through those links now, only then can we read the latest ones. Hope you can fix this. Thanks for the reply

            1. No problem, just click on the categories in the header on the homepage if you are not getting to see the latest posts. It’s why we put it there 😉

    4. Wonder if this is a sort of compensation for Alia because SLB didn’t go ahead with the movie planned with Salman and Alia. Also, I don’t think Alia can pull this off on her own. She doesn’t have the aura or heft in her personality to own the screen. That SLB needs other stars for cameo shows he isn’t sure about Alia and that’s a bad sign as usually SLB is very sure of what he wants from his actors.

    5. Why isn’t rk doing cameo? After all, kjo, Bhatt family and neetu kapoor control his life. It’s so easy for them to get rs down. How much more do they intend to stoop down for harming rs?

      1. Lady Laetitia Knollys

        RK has made it clear more than once that he hates SLB’s style of working. Rishi has criticized him & Saawariya in his autobiography . RK & Sonam both hate SLB ,he will never approach them.

        1. Rishi kapoor has no control over his tongue and also humiliates filmaker like anurag who gave rk barfi (hit) and jagga jasoos ( flop). False sense of entitlement just doesn’t go. That’s the problem, they think they are above everything, when brahmastra flops, will he talk like that to kjo?? Rishi kapoor created a ruckus during kwk episode and then mellowed down for the sake of rk’s career with kjo. Hope slb realises his mistake. Actors are now running around slb for hit movies, when movies of slb fail, he will know loyalty of rs.

    6. still wondering how alia landed this when pc was first choice…she’s good but miles away from pc’s level. Ranveer and Deepika have paid their dues to slb, he’s probably gotten more out of them than the other way around! Just cause you can’t get your act together before filming, don’t expect busy people to drop everything for u. The way he rushed to put this together after that salman film fell apart is very telling, this looks mediocre but will probably do fine

      1. Sorry but SLB has had a huge role in ellevating RS’s credentials as an actor. He wasn’t exactly in A league before Ram Leela. It’s a two way street.
