Hrithik turns magician!

Source:: TOI

Over the decades, actors have learnt various skills to get into the skin of their characters. Dilip Kumar learnt to play the sitar for Azad and Shabana Azmi learnt Carnatic sangeet for Morning Raga. While Ranbir Kapoor will learn to play the guitar for Imtiaz Ali’s Rock Star, Hrithik Roshan has recently learnt a skill which no other Indian actor (barring Kamal Haasan in the South) has learnt.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish features Hrithik in the role of a magician. A Ukrainian magician has been specially called to teach Hrithik magic tricks to make him look convincing.

A source says, “Bhansali did not want Hrithik to fake the magic. Nor did he want the usual rabbit-from-the-hat kind of tricks. The director wanted the magic scenes to look authentic, so a hunt was launched for a magician who would fit the bill. The yardstick was to find an expert who will give Guzaarish ample time and establish a comfort level with Hrithik.”

Finally, the man was found. The director has put aside the shoot of the magician scenes for the very end. Now with the rest of the shooting over, the Ukrainian magician is arriving next month to, well, work his magic.

“However, the interesting part is that the Ukrainian magician was in Mumbai for a brief spell, to work with Hrithik. He taught the actor some of the coolest tricks, never seen in these parts. Now the star keeps his two sons (Hrehaan and Hridhaan) entertained all the time, so much so that the elder one, Hrehaan, expects his father to be the official magician of the evening on his next birthday. If Hrithik wants an alternate career he can easily become a magician and give our PC Sorcars a run for their money,” adds the source.

While choosing to remain mum over the ‘magical’ schedule next month, Bhansali confirmed, “A magician’s participation is needed in the film. Beyond that Hrithik and I are hoping to create magic together.”

Katrina may star opposite Hrithik in Zoya Akhtar's next

Source:: Times Of India

Katrina Kaif is selecting her roles with utmost care. Her projects in 2010 are apparently handpicked to enhance her reputation as an actor.

Among her films is the upcoming Zoya Akthar road movie set in Spain with Farhan Akhtar, Abhay Deol and Hrithik Roshan. Surprising, because with three actors in the project, it would seem there's little space for a female lead.

But Zoya's yet untitled film casts Katrina with Hrithik Roshan for the first time ever, and Katrina's part is said to be something she has never played before.

Though Katrina is unwilling to reveal some potentially explosive chemistry with Hrithik, Farhan Akhtar, who is himself on the verge of being seen with an exciting new star, speaks guardedly about the subject.

"It's too early to talk about it, but yes, if Katrina does come into our project, she will be cast opposite Hrithik. He is the only one who gets to romance his love interest. Abhay and I have no love interest in the film."

Farhan adds that the bonding among the three costars is the backbone of Zoya's film. Katrina has never worked with a woman director before, and neither has she worked with Hrithik. Shooting for the film starts in April.

Hrithik jams for Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Source:: DNA India

Mumbai: Sanjay Leela Bhansali has turned lyricist. The film-maker has penned the title song for his forthcoming movie Guzaarish. Titled Guzaarish Hai, Hrithik Roshan will lip-sync the song. Sanjay, who had previously composed music in a few movies, is very excited to make his debut as a lyricist.

A few days ago, Hrithik was seen practicing hard at Bandra’s Mehboob studio to make this song a memorable one for Sanjay.

A source says, “Hrithik stayed back on the sets even after pack-up to practice the song. He was singing the song aloud and trying to perfect the lyrics. Sanjay is obviously helping him out with fine touches to perfect the song. Hrithik loves the song and has been touched by the lyrics. He wants to deliver it in a brilliant way.”

The source adds, “It became a jugalbandi of sorts at Mehboob (studio) when Hrithik was singing aloud and Sanjay joined him. It was a hard day’s work for the crew but when they heard them sing, they got excited and stayed back to cheer the duo. It was a very happy moment for the entire cast and crew.”

Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan, who stars in the movie opposite Hrithik had, however, left the sets by the time the jamming session started.

Hrithik Roshan recommended Makrand Deshpande

Hrithik Roshan recommended Makrand Deshpande to Sanjay Bhansali for an important cameo in Guzaarish

By Kunal M Shah

Posted On Friday, January 22, 2010 at 02:04:29 AM

Sanjay Leela Bhansali had to cast for an important three-minute cameo for his film Guzaarish. But he just couldn’t make up his mind after auditioning various people. That’s when Hrithik Roshan suggested Makrand Deshpande’s name. Interestingly, Hrithik doesn’t know Makrand personally nor has he ever worked with him.

A source revealed, “Makrand got a call from Bhansali’s office and was equally surprised by the offer.”

Makrand grabbed the opportunity to work with the cast and crew of Guzaarish. He said, “Yes, I have done an important cameo, but I am not supposed to speak about it as the character is a vital part of the film. It was a pleasure working with Sanjay sir, Hrithik and Aishwarya Rai. Hrithik and Aishwarya are such hungry actors. When I got a call from Mr Bhansali’s office, I wondered why they chose me. When I met Hrithik, he told me it was his suggestion to cast me in the cameo and Sanjay loved the idea!”

Recalling his experience, Makrand tells us, “I remember that during the sequence I suggested that I should carry flowers in my hands and Sanjay loved the idea. He stopped the shooting to arrange for the flowers. The entire three-minute scene which had so many dimensions was shot in one take. We even had a long chat after pack-up. I was amazed that Sanjay was aware of my plays and he even knew that I had made a film. He also spoke at length about his musical Padmavati. I still have to finish a couple of shots for the film which I will do soon.”

Hrithik made people cry on sets

Source:: IndiaInfo

There has been a buzz that Hrithik Roshan is rehearsing his lines late at night in his bacony. Now listen to this from a birdie that was present on the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish. Birdie chirps that though Hritik rehearsed night previous to the shooting he wasn’t prepared for the shoot.

According to our source, Bhansali had given Hrithik his lines for the climax scene, which was to be shot on January 12. The cameras were ready to roll but Roshan didn’t turn up for the morning shoot till afternoon. Perfectionist Hrithik told Bhansali he was not confident of carrying off this vital scene, not just yet. He wanted some more time to prepare for the scene. Bhansali asked him to perform anyway, saying they could take a decision later. But Hrithik would have none of it. He said he would not like to shoot on that day. He somehow convinced Bhansali to shoot the scene on following day. The other day Hrithik was shooting for the film, and he gave a fabulous shot and tears well up in everyone’s eyes present on the set. He was applauded when the shot was finally canned in a single take. Imagine – canning a shot in a single take for Bhansali! But then, Hrithik has been doing his homework well too.
He has been going and visiting a lot of people who have met with accidents and suffering from Paraplegia and talking to them as well as their families. That perhaps would have given enough impetus for the actor to deliver the shot in a single take. People close to Hrithik say that the actor has been seriously moved by these stories and thus has been motivated into a serious performance.

Hrithik is a family man in the true sense: Sussanne

Source:: India Times

Yummy mummy and interior decorator Sussane wishes hubby Hrithik Roshan on his birthday today.

Afsana Ahmed

They are Bollywood’s one of the most enviable and youngest married couple. Hrithik and Sussane Roshan, after a fairy tale wedding and ten years of togetherness are still madly in love with each other. On his birthday today, the lovely Sussane recalls the day, when she met her man, and witnessed his gradual growth... professionally, personally and emotionally since than.

Jab we met

Our love story is well known now. We met each other at one of the traffic signal. We were in our respective cars and just happened to look at each other. I cannot explain, but something happened, instantly...It was a spark, a magic... something inexplicable. Immediately we tried looking away. But as our car moved, I kept looking at the rear mirror. He told me later he also tried catching my gaze through his mirror. Guess, sparks flew and love happened.

Love you Hamesha
We don’t love each other the same way when we were courting. Our love has deepened. We have become more honest in airing each other’s opinion. While we were courting our conversations were sugar coated and very sweet. We didn’t want to hurt each other by being too blunt or honest. That’s naturally changed. This growth is important, but the love that binds us surpasses all other emotions. Even today Hrithik is disturbed if I cry. It breaks him down.

Dus saal baad
We have spent about ten beautiful years together. We have got two beautiful sons to complete the family. It’s so nice to know that the man I fell in love with and married has become the hottest star of the country. We share a beautiful, relationship, full of love, even after many years! So many things have happened; good ... bad but nothing could r every relationship. affect our relationship.

Ghar Ho Toh Aisa
He is an absolute family man, loves to spend time with the family. Nothing can distract him when he is with the kids. He is a great husband, but a greater father.

Love Aaj Kal
I don’t care about the loose talks going on. People will always have their opinion. I may not be an actress, but I have a filmi background, and I’m aware how people put two and two together. Nevertheless, scandals are fun. They have to exist; otherwise life can be so boring. I don’t take them seriously anymore.

Pati Patni aur woh!

There’s nothing between them that would distract or disturb me. Coming from a filmi background again, I understand if a man works with a good-looking girl, he is bound to get linked to her. So no issue. As far as this fabricated link up goes, well, the film is a love story. It looks real, but that’s how all films internationally are supposed to be. It’s good for the film. We want it to work
