Prasoon Joshi: My best wishes to Lataji on her birthday. I feel so fortunate that my entry in Bollywood was marked by a song sung by her. I wrote my first song for her, which was the title track of “Lajja”. It was totally a dream come true. Then my luck again favoured me when I wrote “Luka chhupi” for her in the film “Rang De Basanti”. I feel extremely humbled to write songs for someone as great as her.
Kunal Kohli: What can one say about a living legend like Lataji and who am I to say something? I don’t think a word has been created to describe her and her contribution to Hindi film music. My best wishes to her for a long and healthy life.

Kangana:I choose a blockbuster over critical acclaim

Kangana Ranaut has been lucky in Bollwood and now she is trying her hand at Tollywood movies, the leggy lass is not aiming at critical acclaim but is quite happy with blockbusters.

Kangana says,“Given an option, I would choose a blockbuster over critical acclaim. Critics are just a handful of people who look too deep into the nitty-gritties of cinema. They forget to enjoy the fun aspect of the film. The audience watches films to be entertained. They don’t sit in theaters to scrutinize the technical aspects that go into film making. So, I would rather make films to please those million instead of making movies for a bunch of people.”

Good decision Kangana, but just don’t indulge into any more surgeries.

Akki-John to team up together

Director of Blue, Anthony D’Souza’s flick Blue has not hit the theaters and he has started planning for his next flick, he is planning to make a flick with Garam Masala pair Akki and John.

D’Souza says, “Akshay was on board for the next project from the word go. After ‘Blue’, I can’t dream of making a film without him. ‘Blue’ couldn’t have been made without Akshay. As for John, it’s strange that with his physique and body language he has never done a full-on action film.”

“If I was a member of the audience, I’d want to see the two together in the kind of stunts never seen before.”

Yes! We too! We too!
