Biography:

Adriana Francesca Lima was born on June 12, 1981 in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil. She is now best known as one of the faces of Victoria's Secret. To begin her career she, at the age of thirteen, had finished the first place in a Ford Supermodel of Brazil model search before she finally won the second place in the 1996 Ford Supermodel of the World contest. Following her "victory," Adriana soon moved to New York City, and eventually moved on from Ford, signing with Elite Model Management.

That's the point where Adriana started her first model career ever, since when she consisted mostly on fashion editorial work with her early appearances in international editions of Vogue and Marie Claire in 1997/1998, as well as runway work for Christian Lacroix, Valentino, and many others. Her first break had, actually, come when she was featured in a Vassarette advertisement in Times Square that soon continued to her print career. By means of which, just like many other famous model, including Claudia Schiffer, Laetitia Casta and Eva Herzigova, Adriana finally became a "Guess?" Girl in their 2000 Costanoa campaign.

Gayatri Patel’s debut film Let’s Dance has opened to a good response across the country. An excited Gayatri spoke to us about her film and her journey so far.

She began at the tender age of seven when she was signed up for a local Indian dance competition in Alabama in the US and decided that she was going to win the trophy. She did win it that year, the next year and the year after that, until they stopped the competition. While in the US, Gayatri graduated from high school and went to university in Atlanta, Georgia. Here, she won the Miss India-Georgia title and later emerged the first runner-up at Miss India USA pageant. She says. “I have formal training in Kathak and currently I’m learning under Vijayshri Chaudhary who is Pandit Birju Maharaj’s student. My strongest training in is Kathak which I have utilized in my hip- hop and western dance forms. I have grown up learning jazz and ballet in America. I use my classical dance forms as a root to western dance forms.”

To hone her acting skills, alongside her assignments, Gayatri Patel has learnt speech and drama technique from Satyadev Dubey. She also spent some time sitting in on Makrand Deshpande's rehearsals. After arriving in Mumbai she has gone through rigorous training session with 3 Kathak teachers, 3 yoga teachers and 4 Hindi teachers before approaching anybody for a role. Finally two years ago she settled with Veena Mehta for Hindi, Vijayshree Choudhary for Kathak and Effa for Yoga.

She also hit the jackpot with her first film ‘Let's Dance’ . Directed by National Award Winning Editor Aarif Sheikh, it's about a girl who gives direction and life to a group of kids.

She tells us, “As dancing is central to me and my character in the movie, I consider this film a gift from God. I play the character of a dance teacher, who is simple yet determined about her goals. It’s the story of the teacher, who on her way to fame, motivates a group of underprivileged kids. My co-actors are Ajay Chaudhary and Aqib Afzaal and the film is produced by my father Dr Arvind Patel,” she says.

Apart from Let’s Dance, Gayatri has two more movies on hand but the projects are yet to start. But for now, she has no qualms about making a place for herself in the industry. “I am concentrating on my work rather than the competition. I want to show the world that I am not just a novice and I am here to stay,” she says.

Gayatri considers Vyjayantimala, Madhuri Dixit, Meenkshi Sheshadri, Waheeda Rehman as her dance icons because she feels they were not only brilliant dancers but also fantastic actors.

“I want to follow their path and want to be known not just for my dancing skills but also my acting capabilities. I am essentially an actress and also a dancer.” She concludes.

As if to fill in the void and rock the floor, here comes US-born-and-bred Gayatri Patel, all set to storm Bollywood with her debut movie 'Let's Dance' releasing on June 19. The film has the girl playing a simple but determined dance teacher, who on her path to fame, changes course, to motivate a group of underprivileged kids.

This petite dancing tornado aims to make everyone groove to her moves. She can, as she is no novice to the world of dance. Gayatri is trained in Kathak and is also a pro at Yoga. A lethal combination this, it helps her attempt the most daring dance steps, breath-taking whirls and swirls and some awesome splits.

"I could have very well been a doctor like my father, rather than an actress, had I not started performing on stage at the age of eight," she reveals.

At the tender age of seven, Gayatri went to a local Indian dance competition in Dothan, Alabama and decided that she was going win the trophy the coming year. She did win the next year and the year after that and the year after that, till they stopped the competition as she had none. Now that's something!

While in the United States, the spunky girl graduated from high-school and went on to study at the acclaimed Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. Here, she also won the 'Miss India Georgia' title and later emerged the first runner-up at 'Miss India USA'.

"Around this time, I realized that I loved theatre, dance and acting, more than studying science," she quips. Finally, her family decided she shift base to Mumbai to pursue acting. Reaching here, Gayatri spent time taking tips from theatre top-guns Satyadev Dubey and Makrand Deshpande, did an acting workshop with Veena Mehta and played the role of Ophelia in Neeraj Kabir's play 'Hamlet'. She also did three music videos for Venus opposite Inder Kumar and Jugal Hansraj, till one day, National Award winning editor Aarif Sheikh decided to launch her as the lead in his directorial debut 'Let's Dance'.

Having music by Vipin Mishra and another National Award winner Tarali Sharma, her movie's songs have been choreographed by none other than Longinus Fernandes (of "Jai Ho"-'Slumdog Millionaire' and "Pappu Can't Dance Saala"-'Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na' fame), Rajiv Goswami (of 'Veer-Zaara' and 'Dhoom' fame), Pappu-Malu (of 'Saawariya' fame) and the evergreen Saroj Khan.

Produced by Dr Arvind Patel, the film co-stars Ajay Chaudhary, Aqib Afzaal, Sugandha Garg, Asif Basra, Abhaas Yadav, Nikuunj Padaya, Paras Arora and Anjan Srivastav. "I've done jazz, hip-hop, filmy, Kathak and Natwari dancing in the film," informs Gayatri.

So here she is, urging one and all to don their dancing shoes. Now let's see, if 'Let's Dance' helps Bollywood find its new groove.

Gayatri Joshi quotes

# “If I get a chance, I would love to do more movies with him. But the Swades experience in itself was great. It was a great experience working with him” (About Shahrukh Khan)

# “The emotional scenes are more difficult than the other scenes”

# “I have always been more interested in work than publicity. So that’s the reason why people saw more of my work and heard less of me.”

# “I think modelling helped me to be comfortable in front of the camera but otherwise I have not had any acting courses. “

GAUHAR KHAN BIOGRAPHY

Name: Gauhar Khan : Age:29 : Height: 5 ft 8 " : City:Mumbai

Tv ads : Bajaj Auto, Ford Ikon, Tanishq jewellery, Opel cars

Titles won: Femina Miss India (1st Runner-Up) -- 2002

Profession: Model and Actress

Sister: Negar Khan

Gauhar Khan is an Indian model and actress. She is also a television hostess. She was the runner-up in the Femina Miss India contest, 2002

Gauhar Khan the latest evicted from Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 3 talks about her problems with earlier choreographer Hanif Hilal and what went wrong in the Rumba round.

What went wrong?

Nothing really. 2/3 judges felt that Parul’s choreography was stronger then our. I hold no grudges for; it’s their judgment call. But some people did comment that our expressions and step’s in the Rumba were a cut above Parul.

Was your demanding to replace Hanif was right given that you got eliminated anyways?

No it was not my new choreographer Himanshu’s fault, for he performed par excellence despite 6 stitches. He did go wrong with the elastic bands, but covered it up perfectly. I am proud of him and love him for his effort.

The AV before your Rumba performance showed you dictating terms to Himanshu as well?

No, I as an artist reserve the right to give my feedback about what I feel and it’s up to the choreographer to accept it or not. You also must realize that a certain amount of editing does go about to create a story. And it’s not only me other contestant’s also give their inputs. I prefer to voice my concerns there and then, rather then getting blamed later for a poor performance. I still stand by my conviction that Hanif was lacking somewhere.

It is alleged that you and Hanif had a history before?

No, that article which suggested that I knew Hanif from my Pune days is all hogwash. I was in Pune when I was only 16, so you mean to suggest that I had an affair with him then. I have never known Hanif even socially, forget personally. The only time we had met before Jhalak was when he was contesting in Grasim Mr India, and I was hosting that event.

Any message to your fans?

I want to thank them for all their love and support. They voted for me despite all my ups and downs. I humbly request them to keep up their support in the wild card round as well. I promise them that I will be back with a big bang. As for co-contestants they better watch out. My return would mean that they all would have to pull up their sock. I am here to make it the finale and win.

FREIDA PINTO BIOGRAPHY

Date of Birth

18 October 1984, Bombay, Maharashtra, India [now Mumbai, Maharashtra, India]

Nickname

Fro

Height

5' 6" (1.68 m)

Mini Biography

Freida Pinto traversed the modeling circuit in Mumbai [represented by Elite Model Management India] for two years before gaining her big break when director Danny Boyle picked her out in the audition process to play the female lead, Latika, for his project Slumdog Millionaire (2008). In a promo interview, Boyle likened spotting her to his discovery of Kelly Macdonald for Trainspotting.

Surprisingly, Freida, who studied at Mumbai's St. Xaviers College, only began taking acting classes [she has done amateur theatre before] after completing her debut film - when she attended a three-month workshop by Barry John, the veteran theatre guru.

Between 2006-07, she anchored 'Full Circle', a travel show which was telecast on Zee International Asia Pacific. She went on assignments to Afghanistan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Fiji among other countries.

Freida Pinto was born in Mumbai, India, on October 18, 1984. Her father is a banker, while her mother is the principal of a High School. Her sister, Sharon, is a producer at the Indian news channel, NDTV. Freida earned a bachelor’s degree in English at the St. Xavier’s College in Mumbai, and got recruited by the Elite model agency in India at age 20. She has then done campaigns for such companies as Chanel, Visa and eBay.

In 2006-2007, she anchored the TV travel show Full Circle, and visited several Asian countries such as Afghanistan, Fiji, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore.

Freida always knew she wanted to be an actress, professional or not. Though with the high standards of India’s response to Hollywood – Bollywood – it’s very difficult to get ahead. As Freida put it: “You have to be a child of an actor or actress, or have a godfather.

As a current actress, former model and seasoned TV host, it's obvious that the camera agrees with Freida Pinto. Her past assignments have featured magazine covers and advertisements, which show that she has the right look to be the center of attention and not a background doormat. If Freida Pinto didn't have solid sex appeal, the high-profile Elite agency never would've given her modeling aspirations the time of day.

Her career-boosting role as the slightly submissive and altogether supportive Latika in Slumdog Millionaire made men worldwide fall for her and aspire to use her if they ever needed to "phone a friend," Millionaire-style.

She has appeared on several TV shows including Wendell Rodricks for Lakme Fashion Week 2006. She went on to anchor Full Circle on Zee International Asia Pacific, successfully completing 52 episodes where she presented a unique report on Afghanistan and explored the vibrant cultures and traditions of Fiji, Malaysia and Singapore among others.

She was nominated for a BAFTA Film Award for her feature film debut as Latika in Slumdog Millionaire (2009) and shared a Screen Actors Guild award with the rest of the cast. Since then, she has had starring roles in Woody Allen's You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010) and Julian Schnabel's Miral

Freida’s also starring in the movie Trishna, based on Thomas Hardy’s classic novel Tess of the D’Urbervilles. Trishna was shot on location in Rajasthan and Mumbai, India, and tells the story of one woman whose life is destroyed by a combination of love and circumstances. Set in contemporary Rajasthan, Trishna (Freida Pinto) meets a wealthy young British businessman Jay Singh (Riz Ahmed) who has come to India to work in his father’s hotel business. After an accident destroys her father’s Jeep, Trishna goes to work for Jay, and they fall in love. But despite their feelings for each other, they cannot escape the conflicting pressures of a rural society which is changing rapidly through industrialisation, urbanisation and, above all, education. Trishna’s tragedy is that she is torn between the traditions of her family life and the dreams and ambitions that her education has given her.

Trishna debuted at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival to good to mixed reviews (the movie was critiqued for not having a full script but instead let the actors improvise the dialogue), however most of them praised Freida’s portrayal of the titular character. She was called “superb”, “luminous” and with a “vulnerability that is raw, rare, and very moving”. The movie continued to play various film festivals all around the world. Sundance Selects bought the distribution rights, but no US release date has been given. The president of Sundance Selects, Jonathan Sehring, said “Trishna is Michael Winterbottom’s most beautiful and sensual film and features a truly sublime performance by Freida Pinto”.

lthough she's technically a one-hit wonder at the moment, Freida Pinto has all the makings of a future international star. After growing up with visions of Bollywood in her eyes, Freida Pinto found Hollywood instead thanks to director Danny Boyle and a resulting role in the critical darling Slumdog Millionaire -- not bad for a gal with nothing in the way of genuine acting experience. She currently has three films set for release in 2010: You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, opposite Anthony Hopkins and Josh Brolin; Miral, opposite Willem Defoe; and American Empire, opposite Jeremy Piven.

While acting in films may be new to her, Freida Pinto has been in front of the cameras for a few years. She previously hosted a travel-based TV show called Full Circle, and also served as a model through Elite, which had her chewing Wrigley's on TV and promoting VISA in print. Now a star-in-the-making, we expect big things from Freida Pinto -- and so does she.

Recounting how easily he had selected Freida Pinto for the role of Trishna, director Michael Winterbottom said he met her in London for the role and that “I would have begged her to do the part, but luckily she agreed to do it”. Freida has also stated that the role was a dream for her, as she had to “flex every actor muscle” to play the part.

Freida’s blossoming movie career isn’t all she’s got going for her; during the ’09 award season Miss Pinto emerged as a style-icon, having the most raved and talked-about outfits of the season. In March 2009 she was invited to sit front row at the Fashion Week in Paris and Milan. But her fashion-related career didn’t stop there, as she was announced as a new spokesmodel for L’Oreal Paris later in 2009. “I am very moved to be joining the great L’Oreal Paris family and all these personalities: a family I am now proud to be a part of”, Freida said of joining the worldwide beauty brand. Since then she’s appeared in several different campaigns worldwide for L’Oreal, including the ‘Renewal Lash Serum’ mascara, ‘Go 360˚ Clean’ face-wash, ‘Elvive Nutri-Gloss’ shampoo and more. In 2011 Freida co-hosted the brand’s annual Cinema Against AIDS Gala during the Cannes Film Festival.

“After this success, I still consider myself to be a regular Mumbai girl. I’m just one that has been extremely blessed.” Not knowing what the future holds for her, Freida is signed with one of the leading talent agencies in the world – CAA – and has the possibility (and luxury) to chose the parts she wants to play. She dreams of working with seasoned actors such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp. “I think they are simply fantastic and so versatile. I would love to do a dark romantic film with Johnny Depp.” I think it’s safe to say that this star isn’t done rising yet.

They say if you are good friends then your friendship can turn into love and marriage. But hold on a second. What if marriage happens by mistake? This time it will be the other way round. When two people meet and gets married by mistake, the mistake that is going to become their favorite memory. – This is what the upcoming film Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu starring Imran Khan and Kareena Kapoor is all about.

Earlier titled Short Term Shadi, Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu is a romantic comedy. Rahul Kapoor (Imran Khan) an obsessive architect, who wants everything perfect in his life and can’t tolerate any thing out of his place, suddenly loses his job in Vegas and is afraid to tell his parents about this, thus he tries to keep quite and find another job. But with a fatal twist he bumps ups to meet an uber cool, quick-witted hairstylist Riana Braganza (Kareena Kapoor), who lives her life to the fullest and is complete the opposite of what he is. A series of events between the two leads them to meet on the Eve of the Christmas for more than just a few drinks. But it is never ‘few’, following that night of debauchery they woke up to discover the fact that both of them got married. They both wanted to get it annulled as soon as they can and so seeks for an appointment from the court. They get ten days prior to their appointment, where they share moments of arguments, laughs, fights etc which ends up to an unlikely friendship. What will be next? Will this friendship take a turn towards love? To get all the answers, we have to wait until the film releases.

Set in the amazing location of Las Vegas it is a love story mainly based on the saying of the city – what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, it is the only city in US where one can marry and annul the marriage in the same day. The plot of the film has been cleverly merged with the city and its saying. The film is directed by new director Shakun Batra who had earlier assisted films like Rock On and Jane Tu Ya Jane Na.

FIRST ACTOR TO PLAY JAMES BOND

Who Played James Bond: A Complete History

Summary

If you asked someone who the first actor to play James Bond was, they would probably answer Sean Connery. Similarly, if you were to ask how many actors had played the role, most people would say 5 or 6. You may be surprised to know that the above answers are wrong. Below, we give you the complete history of all of the actors who have played James Bond, not only in the official series, but in unofficial films, TV series and radio shows.

1954 - Barry Nelson

In early 1954, Ian Fleming was paid $1000 for the television rights for Casino Royale. The novel was adapted into an hour long TV special and was broadcast on CBS on October 21st, 1954 as an episode of theClimax! Mystery Theatre.

It was a low budget black and white episode that was adapted by Charles Bennett, who wrote the screenplays for most of Alfred Hitchcock's films in the 1930s. It starred Peter Lorre as Le Chiffre, Linda Christian as Valerie Mathis, Michael Pate as Clarence Leiter, and American actor Barry Nelson as the first ever James Bond.

Barry played James Bond very casually, and despite several laughable fighting and torture scenes, the episode was an interesting and enjoyable rendition of Casino Royale. It appears as a special feature on the DVD for the 1967 spoof film Casino Royale.

1956 - Bob Holness

In 1956, Bob Holness provided the voice for James Bond in a South African radio adaption of the Ian Fleming novel Moonraker. He would later go on to become an actor and game show host for Take a Letter andBlockbusters.

The Moonraker special remains today as the only known radio production of James Bond. Bob has said that it was broadcast live, and as such, there is no known recording of it.

1962-1967 - Sean Connery

In 1962, producers Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman brought James Bond to the silver screen in Dr. No, based on Ian Fleming's 1958 novel. With Sean Connery's unique style, the exotic locations, and the spectacular supporting cast, Dr. No became an instant success.

Sean Connery went on to play James Bond four more times in From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball and You Only Live Twice, before temporarily retiring from the role.

1964 - Roger Moore

In 1964, between playing Simon Templar on The Saint, Roger Moore starred as James Bond in an episode of the comedy sketch show Mainly Millicent.

In the 7 minute sketch, James Bond is on holiday and goes for lunch, only to meet Russian Spy Sonia Sekova. Sonia is also on holiday, and the two spies suspect that the other is spying on them, resulting in some comical situations. Bond discovers the waiter is wearing a wig and punches him over the balcony, and the two throw several drinks over their shoulders, suspecting cyanide pills. They both get called back on to cases and end the episode with a kiss.

1967 - David Niven

In the mid 1960s, American producer Charles K. Feldman acquired the film rights to Casino Royale. After a failed attempt to have it made as part of the official series, he decided to turn it into a James Bond spoof instead.

The film opens with David Niven playing a retired 007. M begs him to come back to them, and when Bond refuses, his mansion is promptly blown up! M is killed in the explosion and Bond takes over his position.

He decides to rename all of the agents to James Bond to confuse the enemy. This results in David Niven, Terence Cooper, Woody Allen, Joanna Pettet, Daliah Lavi, Peter Sellers and Ursula Andress all playing James Bond!

1969 - George Lazenby

After Sean Connery's departure from the series in 1967, the producers began the search for a new James Bond. They found Australian model George Lazenby, who was the highest paid model in the world at the time.

During production, George's manager advised him against accepting a multi-movie contract, believing that the Bond movies would loose their popularity. How wrong he was. On Her Majesty's Secret Service was George Lazenby's first and last appearance in the Bond series, although in later years, he played Bond-like characters in several TV spoofs.

1971 - Return of Sean Connery

When George Lazenby retired from the series after filming On Her Majesty's Secret Service, the producers became desperate to find a new James Bond, as they had already sold part of the new film's proceedings to investors. The head of United Artists told them to bring back Sean Connery at any cost. Sean eventually agreed to do one last film, getting paid a $1.25 million base salary plus an estimated 12.5% of the profits.

Sean's performance in Diamonds Are Forever was as good as his prior Bonds, and the film was an enjoyable success. However, it would be the last time that he worked for EON Productions. Sean chose to donate his entire base salary to a Scottish education charity.

1973-1985 - Roger Moore

After Diamonds Are Forever, the hunt for a new James Bond was on. Roger Moore was at the top of the list of candidates, and luckily for him his TV show The Persuaders!, costarring Tony Curtis, wasn't renewed for a second series. This meant that Roger was free for the role, and he became James Bond in Live and Let Die.

Roger played the role with a sophisticated and slightly comical edge, and went on to star in The Man with the Golden Gun, The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker, For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy and A View to a Kill. With 7 movies, he currently holds the record for playing James Bond the most times in the official EON series. (He would be tied for 1st place with Sean Connery if Never Say Never Again was counted as official).

1973 - Christopher Cazenove.

Christopher Cazenove played James Bond in Omnibus: The British Hero, a documentary and literary review style show on the BBC. He acted out several scenes from Ian Fleming's novels, including the scene pictured on the left from Goldfinger, where James Bond is nearly killed with a chainsaw (as opposed to the laser in the film Goldfinger).

1983 - Sean Connery

In the late 1950s, Ian Fleming, Kevin McClory and Jack Whittingham created a screenplay for a possible James Bond film or TV series. However, after another of McClory's films—The Boy and the Bridge—had bombed at the box office, the idea was scrapped. Fleming didn't throw away the drafts though, and used some of the ideas in his next novelThunderball.

Fleming was sued by Kevin McClory, who won the rights to make a film adaption. He made a deal with Cubby Broccoli and Harry Saltzman to make the film Thunderball, for which he got a credit as producer. Kevin was obviously unsatisfied with the film, and with the help of producer Jack Schwartzman, he remade it 18 years later as Never Say Never Again. Never Say Never Again was Sean Connery's last role as James Bond in film.

1987-1989 - Timothy Dalton

When Roger Moore hung up his hat after doing seven films for EON Productions, yet another hunt for a new James Bond begun. They found Welsh stage and screen actor Timothy Dalton, who became James Bond in The Living Daylights in 1987, and License to Kill in 1989.

His breath-taking and deep portrayal of 007 is highly regarded among Bond fans, and is considered very close to the character in Ian Fleming's novels. Timothy was going to continue the role, but in April 1994, after a five year gap due to legal reasons, he officially left.

1995-2002 - Pierce Brosnan

In 1986, after his TV series Remington Steele had ended, Pierce Brosnan was asked to play the role of 007. The news broke out, and because of the strong publicity, Remington Steele was brought back. Pierce couldn't play both at the same time, so Timothy Dalton was brought in to play Bond.

Pierce was given another opportunity in 1995 and this time it was a success. He went on to play James Bond four times in Goldeneye,Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough and Die Another Day.

2006 - Daniel Craig

After a four year gap, James Bond returned with Daniel Craig in Casino Royale (2006). It was the first film to use an original Ian Fleming title since 1987's The Living Daylights.

There were mixed feelings about Daniel Craig before the film was released. Some people even went as far as creating websites and petitions against the "blond bond". However, Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan all came forward to give their support. On Casino Royale's release, the negativity all went away, and with the film a huge success, Daniel Craig turned out to be a popular and worthy James Bond.

Daniel returned for his second outing as Bond in 2008's Quantum of Solace, which was one of the highest grossing Bond films in America to date. He is currently filming for the upcoming "Bond 23" film Skyfall, which is slated for release in late 2012. Skyfall is being directed by Sam Mendes, and will star Javier Bardem, Bérénice Marlohe, Naomie Harris,

Ben Whishaw, Helen McCrory, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney and Ola Rapace.

The much-awaited Agneepath movie has been in gossips section from the time when the renowned filmmaker Karan Johar made his ultimate decision to officially remake the Amitabh Bachchan and Danny Denzongpa starrer Agneepath (1990). The original one is been declared as a cult one because of its high-intense action drama and award winning performance by Amitabh. It was itself produced by Karan’s father Yash Johar, and thus Karan was very keen to remake the film.

This remake has got an immense build-up for the reason that of it’s a range of reasons. One being of course that it is a remake of the cult movie, secondly the deadly look of Sanjay Dutt as Kancha and brilliant actor Hrithik in Vijay Dinanath Chahaun’s role, next the impressive first-look theatrical promo which was released before Diwali, and the final one would be but obvious the stunning beauty Katrina Kaif as the sexiest and hottest item girl Chikni Chameli.

However publicity and build-up is in a straight line proportional to the hopes, and thus it is been said that no matter what kind of promotion is been done to trade the movie and music, might go down flat if the ultimate product is not in a first-rate quality. In spite of being an action-thriller cum revenge film, there are superior potentials from the music of Agneepath. Earlier the celebrated music composers Ajay and Atul have carried out a pretty well-brought-up music for the action movie Singham which was released this year, so let us find out how much they have impressed us by Agneepath this time

Chikni Chameli…

The boldest, sexiest and the hottest song of the year, Chikni Chameli, is as well an official redesign of Marathi song Kombadi Palali. Hence after knowing the fact that the makers are busy attaining all the attempted and experienced procedures below one roof, the final product still looks excellent.

Music composers Ajay-Atul’s super hit Marathi song ‘Kombadi Palali’ from Marathi movie ‘Jatra’ was an entertaining dance track and thus it has been recreated by the same composers itself into a sexy item song, featuring the stunning beauty Katrina with her boldest and gross moves.

Amitabh Bhattacharya’s lines however sounds only good, if compares it with the original. On the other hand, if one may not have heard the original version, they may perhaps find this one as excellent, especially the lines such as ‘Pahua Chadha Ke Aayee…’ Similarly if compared with the original version, the music as well sound good, as back of the mind one would listen the Marathi adaptation. But overall it does engage you in the company of Shreya Ghoshal’s first-rate singing efforts

Visually, Chikni Chameli brings the magical charm because of the gorgeous and the ever-sexy lady Katrina involved in it. Her boldest and gross choreograph moves definitely enthrals the audience. Musically do not expect like a Sheila, Munni or Chammak Chhalo as they are original and have their own charm, but Chikni Chameli will without a doubt pull off the blockbuster hit rank and would be definitely under the nomination of the best item song of that respective year.

O Saiyaan…

Out of the blue, after the tried & tested recreation and rewrites version, music composers Ajay and Atul brings the much essential freshness in ‘O Saiyaan’, seeing that the well-known singer Roop Kumar Rathod comes back with a bang

The composers take a twist in their album with this song by offering a pattern that is ambient. And where they take exemption from the simplicity the result is mind-blowing, be it the utilization of the santoor, or the vocal parts, or the beating. Singer Roop Kumar Rathod by no means falls short when it comes to the typical-based versions, and this track is no exception.

On the whole, it’s a sluggish but a touching number that hooks up the emotions. Amitabh Bhattacharya has penned down a few fine lyrics in this song.
