"I hope it ('Policegiri') does well and 'Lootera' also does well. Ekta (Kapoor) calls me 'bhabhi' and of course, Sonakshi calls me 'bhabhi' and bhaiya to Sanju. So that is also my family film. It's good there is no competition,.

Sonakshi Sinha is in for some real interesting weekend ahead. After working in five back to back hero-centric films (Dabangg, Rowdy Rathore, Joker, Son of Sardaar, Dabangg 2), four of which crossed the 100 crore mark, she would now be seen in her first ever outing which has both her and hero in equal measures. Even for Ranveer, this is an acid test of sorts since after being seen as a flamboyant personality in Band Baaja Baraat followed by Ladies v/s Ricky Behl, he would be seen in a much sober avatar on screen. What has caught attention so far is the simplicity factor in this Vikramaditya Motwane affair. If the promos are any indication, this one appears to be a classy outing in the offering. This also means that the film would find maximum patronage, at least to begin with, in premium multiplexes at major cities with all India opening in the 50% range.

With his new release Policegiri around the corner, Sanjay Dutt's friends and family miss his presence in their midst more than ever. This is a very trying time for Dutt's family, especially his wife Manyata. Apparently, she has been unable to watch Policegiri. Although several attempts have been made to arrange screenings for her, Maanyata has been too emotionally overwrought to watch the entire film. "It is too overwhelming for her to see her husband on screen at a time when he is not with her," says a source. Says the Policegiri producer T.P. Aggarwal, "This is very tough on all of us especially Maanyataji and Sanjay's immediate family, who would have liked nothing better than to have him stand up for the film. In his absence, we're doing our best. Not to have Sanjay with us is a blow that we feel stronger now when the film is on release.

Our leading men's leading ladies are becoming progressively misleading. Sanjay Dutt who turned 53 this month would be romancing the 24-year old Prachi Desai in his new cop film Thanedaar Returns. And to ensure that the age difference doesn't jar, the script is being modified to justify the gap of 29 years between the hero and heroine. The last time there was such a yawning gap between the lead pair was when Anil Kapoor played Kareena Kapoor's husband in Bewafaa. And there the age gap was justified by the fact that Kareena was Anil's second wife in the film. But here with no plausible justification for the age difference except for the fact that Prachi was the only viable choice with dates; the makers of the film have decided to rewrite the original script to explain the age difference.

Tomorrow, there might be many more allegations and my respect in the society will be at stake. I am not involved with any underworld gang. I am not a gangster, so why this thing has come to me,’ Aggarwal asked while addressing a press.

But when he read the story, he realized Red Alert was not one of those films that he had been associated with in the past." Suniel gradually became serious when he started preparing for the role. "He shed all those attributes he's known for and slipped into the role of Narsimha. I feel vindicated now that Suniel has won acclaim and awards for his performance at various international festivals," Ananth states.
