Aamir in a film on AIDS?


Bollywood Superstar Aamir Khan is likely to feature in Priyadarshan's much-awaited film based on AIDS. 
"The project on AIDS is on, but the script is not yet ready... (I had) too many schedules and things to do so couldn't finish the script. I had discussed it with Aamir earlier and that time he wanted to do the film," the director.
The 55-year-old filmmaker has been talking about this project since 2009. It has been learnt that after Priyadarshan wraps up his current project, 'Kamaal Dhamaal Malamaal', he would start work on the untitled AIDS film, which will be without songs, comedy and free of commercial trappings.
"I will complete the script first and approach him (Aamir) again. If he has time he will do it," the National Award winning director said. 
Earlier, filmmakers Revathy and Onir had explored this subject (AIDS) in their films 'Phir Milenge' (2004) and `My Brother Nikhil' (2005), respectively. 
While 'Phir Milenge' had a star-studded cast that included Salman Khan, Shilpa Shetty and Abhishek Bachchan, 'My Brother Nikhil' featured Sanjay Suri, Juhi Chawla and Purab Kohli. Both films did not have a successful run at the box office but they received critical acclaim.

Tiger Shroff will be launched by Farhan Akthar and trained by Aamir Khan


Recently, there was much speculation about Tiger Shroff (Jackie and Ayesha’s son) being part of Mahesh Bhatt’s ‘Ashiqui 2’. But his parents dismissed these as rumours, while hinting at something else in the offing.
Now it’s official: Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani of Excel Entertainment have lapped up Tiger for a Reema Kagti directed film under their banner. Reema had earlier directed ‘Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd’ for Farhan’s banner and she is also helming the Aamir-starrer ‘Talaash’. Zoya Akhtar and Reema will co-script an action-oriented love story for this star son’s debut! The film is slated to hit the floors by end 2012.
This also puts paid to the rumours that Subhash Ghai (who launched Jackie) would get to do the honours of casting Tiger in the remake of the Jackie starrer Hero. Jackie had even endorsed that “Tiger has it laid out for him. If Subhashji hadn’t given me a break I wonder what would have happened to me.” But obviously Tiger had other plans!
Incidentally, Aamir Khan has taken Tiger under his wing and is said to be training him! The superstar and the newbie apparently hang out together and hit the gym at Aamir’s home. Jackie and Aamir have remained friends ever since they worked together in Rangeela, so Aamir considers Tiger part of his family.

We guess this is one to look forward to: Aamir as coach and Farhan as producer. What more could a Tiger ask for?

What's giving Katrina the jitters?


The actress is undergoing some gruelling workout sessions to test her stamina for her character in her next film opposite Aamir Khan

Kat’s nervous. She has had a tough shooting schedule in London recently. But that’s nothing compared to what she has gotten herself into now. The actress who’s never done an action film before, has just started intensive and specialised fitness training for her role in her upcoming project opposite Aamir Khan.For the next 10 days, the actress is going to be training for four hours, every day at the Yash Raj Studios where a floor has been specially rigged up for the practice sessions.“The sessions are basically to determine what my stamina is like and how much I can take. Which is what is scaring me, ” she says with a laugh.
Hunger pangs                                                                          Katrina not new to fitness. But what she’s not used to are gruelling workout sessions that would leave her body thoroughly exhausted. “That kind of working out is just too draining.Particularly, when you are not used to that kind of extreme physical strain. Your body ends up feeling worn out. It starts craving… you know…rest and food. After those four hours of working out, I will be like dead for the rest of the day, ” she elaborates. Rumours are that Aamir will be playing a ballet dancer in the film. Is Katrina role similar? While she doesn’t want to divulge any detail, she is all praises for her co-star. “Just look at him. He’s maintained himself so well.

 It’s amazing. Even Hrithik, he’s always so fit. Women can’t work out so strenuously like that, you know. Our shoulders are not so strong. You ask a woman to do pull-ups and you’ll know, ” she says. 
Katrina believes it’s not a good thing to subject one’s body to such erratic fitness phases. “However, I thought that if I needed to do a role of this kind, it had to be now. I won’t be able to do justice to such roles after I get into my 30s, ” she adds.
 Slow but steady                                                                      Having gotten herself in the groove with some regular exercises for the last couple of days, Katrina’s been trying to build her stamina slowly. But body flexibility could be a slight issue, she suspects. “I don’t think my body is very flexible. What if they find I can’t do some of the things required for the scenes? This is a huge challenge; sometimes I don’t know why I sign up for such roles. Why can’t I just stick to the sarees, eat what I want and be happy?” she smiles ruefully. Too late, Kat. Time for your next workout!
