Bollywood's latest happenings at a glance


All eyes are set on the big three films - Kites, Rajneeti and Raavan. The films are expected to extend the summer box office fest after Housefull and Badmaash Company. However, if any of these three films fail, that would immediately pull down the industry by at least 50 crores.
Manisha Koirala may happily settle down after her marriage but before that she would have to go through the ignominy of seeing the release of her stuck film Ek Second Jo Zindagi Badal De?
Better days are there ahead for Tusshar Kapoor. He has been signed by Rajshri Productions for a solo romantic film. The film would be directed by first timer Manavsi and would feature Amrita Rao opposite Tusshar. The film goes on floors this July.
Film maker Anees Bazmee has an eventful 12 months ahead. He would be seeing the release of four his films one after another - It's My Life, No Problem, Thank You and Ready.
After Zeher, Arshad Warsi has taken a dark route again by signing a gritty cop drama for debutant director Bejoy Nambiar, an erstwhile assistant director with Mani Ratnam
There is quite some competition ahead in the Diwali month of November as three high profile films - Hrithik Roshan's Guzaarish, Ajay Devgn's Golmaal 3 and Akshay Kumar's Patiala House would be vying for screen space.
Do we see yet another Katrina v/s Zarine debate hotting up? Buzz is that Zarine Khan has been signed for Partner 2 starring Salman Khan and Govinda.
Hrithik Roshan'as much-hyped film "Kites", which released worldwide on Friday (May 21), garnered a mixed response from critics and fans. The love story, which marks Hrithik's return to the big screen after a gap of two years, is high on style but falters in the writing department, feel critics. They also lamented that Kangana Ranaut has been wasted with a "half-baked" role. Critic Anupama Chopra said Hrithik was spectacular but the film "does not become more than the sum of its parts because the second half is flat and in places, outright foolish". The film is produced by Rakesh Roshan and directed by Anurag Basu of "Gangster" fame. Hrithik Roshan, actor, speaks exclusively to TIMES NOW's Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami on his new film.
