Khan also mentioned in the story that he had helped Ilahi by lending her Rs1 lakh although a single penny was not given to her.

The prosecution claims that Fazlani had asked the actor to lessen his fee for the film and threatened him with the bad consequences if he didn’t do so.

Actor Salman Khan had to rush to hospital while he was shooting for `Dabang`, his brother Arbaz Khan`s debut production in Satara district where he had to run through the fire many times.

In spite of doctor’s advice of taking rest for at least the next two days Salman went back to the shooting the very next day.

If sources are to believed Aamir went ahead saying, “I am confident about My Name is Khan and hope- it crosses 3 Idiots at the box office. Aamir Khan has really liked the promos of the movie My Name Is Khan which are already out on television.”

Well, it would be interesting to witness whether My Name is Khan will really surpass Aamir’s expectations and break its record. Wonder, what has SRK to say on that?

Bollywood actor Salman Khan, along with the cast and crew of his forthcoming film ”Veer” attended its music launch function here on Monday evening.

Directed by Anil Sharma, ”Veer” is an epic film set in 1875, during the British rule in India. It is a love story of a warrior belonging to the Pindari clan. Historically, the Pindaris were bands of Afghan horsemen who fought against the British forces, and survived on plunder.

While interacting with media-persons, Sharma said that the music was the main USP of the film.

“I think one of the USP of the film, apart from the star Salman Khan, is the story and the dialogues written by the writers. The major USP of the film is its music. All the hard work done to make this period film will definitely attract the viewers,” he added.

The film stars Salman Khan, Mithun Chakraborty, Sohail Khan and Jackie Shroff.

Music directors Sajid-Wajid, who have soundtracks of films like ”Welcome” and ”Partner” to their credit, have composed the music for ”Veer”.

The film is slated for release in 2010

There were violent protests carried out lots of Bajrang Dal activists who demanded that the screening of the film ‘London Dreams’ should be stopped immediately.
The group feels that the film hurts religious sentiments of Hindus. They were armed with iron rods and sticks and attacked movie theatres Prabhat and Krishna.
In their protests, at least six workers of the theatres got injured.

“Some people stormed into the halls. Police are trying to track down the attackers”, says Superintendent of Police Rajnesh Singh while confirming the news.

Mumbai, Oct 30 (IANS) “London Dreams” is Vipul Shah’s first film that doesn’t star Akshay Kumar. While the filmmaker missed his favourite actor, he says he thoroughly enjoyed working with Salman Khan and Ajay Devgn and loved their dynamism.

“When you work with people with whom you have never worked before, there are two ways to look at things. Firstly, you do miss your favourite actor and…I have been associated with Akshay for so long. On the other hand, you have to start enjoying the process of working with the new bunch of people. Thankfully, both Salman and Ajay allowed me that comfort level,” Shah told IANS.

Shah teamed up with Akshay in his directorial debut “Aankhen”, followed by “Waqt – Race Against Time” and “Namaste London”. Later when he decided to rope in Anees Bazmee as director for “Singh Is Kinng”, Akshay was once again by his side. All these films worked well at the box office.

“Akshay and me go a very long way. It is absolutely a great rapport that both of us share and it’s a treat to work with him. However, I have to admit that since I was working with Salman and Ajay for the first time, I had to be on my toes all the time. That further made it an enjoyable experience for me,” he said.

The director has brought Salman and Ajay together 11 years after “Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam”.

Talking about the two, he said: “In any case, both these actors are beyond hits and flops today. They have been there for 20 years now and seen the industry and its trends quite closely. Moreover, they enjoy worldwide popularity and are known all over.

“They have a huge reach and impact which should bring in audiences. After they get an opening, it should be the film which should do the talking. If it is good, it would work. Period.”

Shah is also all praise for Asin Thottumkal, who would be seen in “London Dreams” a year after her debut Bollywood flick “Ghajini” opposite Aamir Khan.

“It is challenging for any actress to stand in front of terrific actors and stars like Salman and Ajay. However, the best part is that though she is a fresh face for Hindi audiences, she has worked with Kamal Haasan and other big stars down south.

“She knows how to make her presence felt amidst big stars and not to get conscious, upset or scared. It’s that kind of confidence that puts her at par with the actors,” the director said.

“She comes with that definite advantage. Since she has already dealt with one huge star like Aamir, her confidence shows. She is not scared of stars and comes across as so fresh on screen. This is so good for any director,” he said.

With an intense drama like “London Dreams” in front of audiences, Shah knew that he had a task in hand.

“While making the film, I had to work towards creating a comfort zone for my actors. Audiences should walk out of theatres saying that other than just Akshay, Vipul can extract good work from Ajay and Salman as well. That would be my win from the film,” Shah said.

Mumbai: One of the big budget films of the year is awaiting release in this week. Vipul Shah’s London Dreams which stars Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn and Asin in the lead roles will hit box office on Oct 30.

Director Vipul Shah is using all possible ways to promote his film. First he had organized musical shows across the country to promote it.

Now, he asked Salman to autograph movie tickets of the film and give them away. The presence of Salman at the Delite theatre in New Delhi attracted scores of people.

Eventually lot of tickets were sold but only a lucky few walked away with the autographed ones.

Mumbai: Salman Khan has revived again, he is looking fresh and gave a
good performance in Wanted. At the same time, Prabhu Deva’s
choreography is good and suits his dance styles.

This week sees some action in box office after thee continuous weeks of flops.

Wanted comes as a relief the audiences was longing for. The film got
the right kind of publicity and opened with lot of hype. Salman Khan’s
flick was no doubt backed well.

Dil Bole Hadippa is taking a back seat and Wanted is a single screen
movie which trade analysts thought that might cause issue for the
film’s collection.

But, Salman fans didn’t let it happen and the film is doing decent
business in multiplexes and with Eid being on Sunday, the film enjoyed
a tremendous welcome on Monday.
