After a LONG wait, Farah Khan‘s Happy New Year hit the theatres worldwide yesterday. While Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone‘s loyalists cannot stop raving about their favourite actors, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani, Abhishek Bachchan, Vivaan Shah and Jackie Shroff‘s performances are also being appreciated by many.

Recently, there was a lot of brouhaha in Bollywood about Aamir Khan not taking any permission from Shah Rukh to release the trailer of PK in theatres alongside Happy New Year. But it happened. And like every Rajkumar Hirani film, this one has also struck a chord with the masses already. Aamir’s never-before-seen avatar has left everyone quite curious. The actor has openly admitted that the role of PK was the most challenging role he has ever played as he could seldom blink during the shoot.

The movie also features Sanjay Dutt, who’s currently in Pune’s Yerwada jail. So Raju Hirani and Aamir have decided to hold a special screening of the flick there.

On the other hand, the trailer of Action Jackson (which was also aired the theatres along with Happy New Year) has also received a positive response. But Ajay Devgn‘s dialogue delivery in it has caught everyone’s attention. A report suggests that he is trying to take a dig at Salman Khan. We wonder if there’s any truth to that!

Bollywood’s young beauty, Anushka Sharma, tasted success with her debut film and then managed to make it big in the industry quite effortlessly. Now, the pretty actress has turned producer with her forthcoming movie, NH 8. And even before her maiden production is out, she’s all set to flag off her next production. She runs her production house, Clean Slate Films, with her brother Karnesh Sharma.

The director-actor duo of Vishal Bhardwaj and Shahid Kapoor attended Rome Film Festival, where they screened their latest outing, Haider. The flick was lauded by one and all present there. Naturally, it was a proud moment for the Indian Film Fraternity. Kudos to Vishal and Shahid!

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for actor Sharman Joshi. Despite being a talented performer, his current track record at the box-office is far from impressive. Fortunately, Joshi has realized that too and has promised to make wiser choices hereon. Well, all the best, Sharman!
