Koffee with Karan: Priyanka Chopra accepts she’s had phone sex.

Koffee with Karan: Priyanka Chopra accepts she’s had phone sex. 

17 January, 2017

 

After being quizzed by talk show hosts like Jimmy Kimmel, Chelsea Handler, and Ellen DeGeneres, now is the turn for Bollywood’s ‘desi’ girl Priyanka Chopra to get grilled on the ‘desi’ celebrity talk show, Koffee with Karan by Karan Johar. And with the promos out, we must say the Quantico star has a lot to reveal.

Karan Johar introduces Priyanka  to his audience as, “phenomenal star, global movie star, and a red carpet rocker and therefore the  and therefore the biggest news-maker of our times, Priyanka Chopra.”

 In the new promo shared by Star World on Monday, Priyanka spills the beans on her love life and at a similar time is upset regarding her mother looking the episode. Karan asks Priyanka a series of queries as they play the Koffee shots and Priyanka’s assertive replies to these will surely leave you surprised. Karan enquires from Priyanka if she had taken a shower with her partner, made out with the lights on, and kissed an ex after she broke up. In reply to all of these, Priyanka gulped down the Koffee shots one after the other. Once When Karan asks whether she ever had phone sex, Priyanka bursts out lauging and said, “My mother better not watch this show.” She cut down another Koffee shot back to the question.

The earlier promo saw Priyanka’s GK being place to check. Though her laughter in reply to every question has put us in a doubt whether she will be able to pass the quiz with distinction or not.

After being a master of talk shows, Priyanka conjointly doesn't miss on pulling Karan’s leg as he says that the purpose of his show is not to come out with any herculean secrets.

From the promos, the episode which is to be aired on coming Sunday is already a successful among the followers of the show. Despite her solo look on the show, it looks  Priyanka has set a benchmark for the other stars yet to appear on the show.

Filmfare Awards 2017

Filmfare Awards 2017: Alia Bhatt is the best actress

             

Filmfare Awards 2017: In spite of many finding fault with her Bihari twang, Alia Bhatt affected the audience with her gritty portrayal of a girl who goes through hell and is determined enough to fight it. Her win because the Best Actor (Female) is well merited.

Alia Bhatt is on cloud nine as 2016 served this young actor quite well. Alia Bhatt has been receiving a number of nominations for her films done last year. At 62nd Filmfare Awards too, she was nominated for two films – Udta Punjab and Dear Zindagi. And she did win. She picked up the award in the Best Actor (Female) category for her performance in one of the year’s biggest hits, Udta Punjab, and her fans are definitely celebrating.

Alia played the role of a Bihari migrant, who unfortunately finds herself caught in the vicious web of drug addiction and human trafficking in Punjab. She may need chosen a shiny debut in Student Of The Year (2012), however Alia Bhatt has not shied far from taking over difficult role ever since.

In spite of the many finding fault with her Bihari twang, Bhatt affected the audience with her gritty portrayal of a girl who goes through hell and is determined enough to fight it.

In all her three onscreen outings in 2016 — Kapoor & Sons, Udta Punjab and Dear Zindagi (not counting her blink-and-miss appearance as DJ Alia in Karan Johar’s movie Ae Dil Hai Mushkil) — she tried to achieve a certain versatility. In Kapoor & Sons and Dear Zindagi, she played urban characters who are struggling with their past. The latter relied on her heavily. Shah Rukh Khan’s extended cameo as an unconventional shrink was the perfect foil to Bhatt’s lost-in-the-woods character. Alia Bhatt added life to the three roles she played this year.

Probably among the foremost proficient within the young crop of actors, Alia goes strength to strength with each performance. And thus her Best Actor (Female) win amongst the films we saw in the year 2016, is well deserved.

Amir Khan’s ‘Dangal’ crosses 350 cr mark

Amir Khan’s ‘Dangal’ crosses 350 cr mark:
Box-office assortment Day nineteen

12 January, 2017

Aamir Khan is understood for making records at the window and he has done it all over again. Nitesh Tiwari's film 'Dangal' has crossed the 350 large integer benchmark in precisely nineteen days of its release.

Trade Analyst Taran Adarsh took to twitter to share the news, "#Dangal  metalosses 350 cr mark... [Week 3] Friday 6.66 cr, Sat 10.80 cr, Sun 14.33 cr, Mon 4.35 cr, Tue 4.03 cr. Total: 353.68 cr. India biz." 'Dangal' has currently become the best grossing film ever to possess reached this mark, followed by 'Pk' that grossed 340.8 crore. the highest 2 slots of the best grosser currently belongs to Mr. Perfectionist.

DANGAL STORY: 
Once Mahavir Singh Phogat (Aamir), a a wrestler from Haryana, loses hope of getting a son, he trains his daughters Geeta (Fatima) and Babita (Sanya) to create wrestling history, so breaking the taboo of Indian girls taking part during a sport so far dominated by men.

DANGAL REVIEW:

 within the story department, Dangal offers few surprises as a result of Geeta and Babita's historic wins at the Commonwealth Games and following championships square measure public knowledge. However, this screen adaptation is a recap of their difficult journey and it smartly recaptures their stubborn father's resolve to create them skilled wrestlers against the odds. Since it encapsulates the historic wins of the Phogats who brought India glory, the film is also bound to inspire more women to seriously consider kushti as a sport.

What works splendidly here is the writing. Director Nitesh Tiwari, along with Piyush Gupta, Shreyas Jain and Nikhil Mehrotra should be complimented for their tongue-in-cheek quality, peppered with humour and several poignant father-daughter emotions all through.

It is to the film’s credit that though Geeta and Babita’s wins are documented, it still manages to engage the viewer with the wrestling tournaments and bring patriotic emotions to the fore. Most importantly, Dangal scores with its first-rate performances. An ungainly Aamir (22 kilos heavier) with grey hair is pitch-perfect as the ziddi yet sensitive parent. The 51-year-old actor should be complimented for experimenting with his roles, unlike his contemporaries who prefer to play safe. Sakshi as his wife, is restrained, yet effective. And, the debutants Fatima and Sanya are easily this year’s best finds. 

Music director Pritam and lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya manage an earthy soundtrack with Daler Mehndi’s title track pumping up the adrenaline. Also, the soft track Gilheriyaan, the Haryanvi rap and hip-hop Haanikarak Bapu and the Dhakaad number, are in perfect tandem with the narrative. 

A timeline of how Dangal broke the records…
