Bipasha Basu is unarguably one of the sexiest and fittest actresses in the Indian Film Industry today.

Bips seems to be very exited about this opportunity. She says, "I love the energy, the exhilaration and the passion of the brand. I believe in the brand attitude of ’I am what I am’. In many ways it’s me! And that’s what I have been drawn by and relate to so deeply and well, for that matter there couldn’t have been a better brand connect."

Reebok too seems to be excited about having Bipasha represent their brand. Managing Director, Reebok India, Subhinder Singh said, "Bipasha embodies the pulse points of our brand - individuality, authenticity and a life lived to the fullest in perpetual motion. She is an actor par excellence, a celebrated youth icon with an immense passion for fitness.

Its Black And White

AnilKapoor in Black And White

AnilKapoor-BlackAndWhite

It’s becoming a trend for the films coming from the house of Subhash Ghai.

Earlier it happened in case of BOMBAY TO BANGKOK when the film’s release got delayed only to eventually hit the screens on January 18th. Now BLACK and WHITE, a film which is directed by the showman himself, has been pushed forward by a good three weeks. Earlier all set for release on 7th March, BLACK and WHITE would now be coming on 28th March.

In the hindsight this appears to be a good move as 7th March release was nothing less than suicidal. Beginning of March marks the kick start of school/college exams when students shy away from theaters. An offbeat film, BLACK and WHITE relies heavily on youth to help it make a mark at the box office.

However, 28th March is also not a date which really gets the film in a comfort zone. That’s because it follows RACE (21st March) and faces JANNAT (4th April) in weekends around it. All eyes are now set on the D-day to get the picture clearly in ’black’ or ’white’!

Welcome

January 13, 08 by WeBollywood

welcome-movie-2007-Akshay-Katrina

The most interesting part of this splintered comedy is Mallika Sherawat’s con woman character, whose agreeable coquettishness is applied to the love lives of two goofy gangsters played by Nana Patekar and Anil Kapoor, both on the look-out for a suitably noble bridegroom for their pretty sister Katrina Kaif.

Between the two leading ladies, Mallika definitely has the spicier, livelier and more animated role. Mock-romancing Kapoor and Patekar, Sherawat doesn’t quite bring the house down.

However, she’s funnier than some of the brainwaves that pass off as comedy in this brain-strain of a film, like the climax that has all the characters cramped in a wooden shack perched in the middle of a yawning precipice.

Honestly, it isn’t just the precipice that’s yawning by the time the climax screeches into sight.

Feroz Khan, the most senior don of the loud loutish lot of mobsters, is led to believe that his son is dead.

A good 20 minutes of the script goes into Anil, Nana, Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar running helter-skelter pretending Feroz’s son is dead when in fact he is running around the cremation ground trying to attract his intellectually-challenged dad’s attention.

Laughing in the face of death is a wonderful thing. We saw the death-defying drollery occur earlier this year in Rahul Rawail’s comedy ’Buddha Mar Gaya’.

Writer-director Anees Bazmi does the festive farce with more finesse. The narrative avoids crudity most of the way even as the goofball antics of the characters gets progressively outlandish. Cars break into two halves, guns go off in the wrong direction and the actors look more crazed than people in a mental asylum.

Yawn. Another comedy. Another day in the long history of films from Bollywood struggling to make the audience laugh.

But how do we bear with this one beyond a point? Sure we giggle a bit at the outset. But we don’t really get to see the comic aptitudes of Bazmi develop beyond a cluster of gags and skits beaded together in broad strokes of crude satire.

Akshay Kumar manfully allows Katrina to rescue him from a fire but who can rescue us from the raging flames of ennui that envelope us as we watch talented actors make fools of themselves?

Cast: Feroz Khan, Anil Kapoor, Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Paresh Rawal
Writer and Director: Anees Bazmi
