Kabir Khan, the director of the new Salman Khan starrer Bajrangi Bhaijaan, feels the Kashmir schedule of his film which starts next week must not be disrupted because of the flood situation.
Explaining why it is imperative that Salman Khan meet the deadline Kabir says. "You have to understand Salman's first visit to the Valley is a huge boost to their morale. The Kashmiri population is very excited about his visit. If we put off the schedule because of the floods, there will be tremendous disappointment."
Foreseeing the kind of welcome that no Bollywood star has received since Shammi Kapoor and Rajesh Khanna shot for Kashmir Ki Kali and Daag respectively, the local administration has agreed to provide unprecedented security for Kabir's crew.
Says the director, "I had a done a brief schedule of my Saif-Katrina film Phantom in Kashmir. I had even met Omar Abdullah. The entire administration had been very co-operative.

Pran Krishan Sikhand, known simply as "Pran" to his fans, died in New Delhi on Saturday (July 13). The Bollywood actor was 93.
Best known for playing notorious villains over a six-decade-long career, Pran appeared in more than 400 films. Most notable among them are several prominent movies in which he played the bad guy: "Kashmir ki Kali," "Khandaan," "Aurat," "Bari Behen," "Jis Desh Men Ganga Behti Hai," "Half Ticket," "Upkar," "Purab Aur Paschim" "Don," "Karz" and "Naseeb."
Pran, born on Feb. 12, 1920, first appeared on film in 1940. After the Punjabi film, "Yamla Jat," the actor worked steadily for a few years. A move to Mumbai was initially difficult, but a role in 1948's "Ziddi" revived Pran's acting career.
Between 1969 and 1982, Pran developed his talent for playing villainous characters in films, making the bad guy as important as the hero in many. Pran also appeared as a beloved character actor in many films.

Shah Rukh Khan recently stated in an interview with Filmfare Magazine that he never wanted to become an actor and assumed that he would never succeed within the world of Bollywood. The 47 year old actor took part in the interview to mark 100 years of Indian Cinema and also posed for a special edition cover along with two other legends; Dilip Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan. “I never wanted to be an actor; I always wanted to be a sportsman” said Shah Rukh. “The first person who thought I could be an actor was Harry Baweja. He called my mother and told her, “Main aapke bete ko zaroor hero banaoonga.” My mom immediately wrote his number on a wall. Mom, of course, wanted me to be in the movies. I was 17-18 then and I used to do theatre. I didn’t want to do movies. But once my mother died, there was nothing left in Delhi.

"Actor Shammi Kapoor, the dancing star who revolutionised the image of Hindi film heroes in the 1950s and 1960s with his carefree and flamboyant personality, died on Sunday," reports the Hindustan Times. "The tall, athletic and green-eyed hero had his share of struggle before making it big. The recipe for his success was a makeover as a flamboyant yet lovable lover boy and an uninhibited style of dancing. The freshness and style saw him deliver big hits like An Evening in Paris, China Town, Kashmir Ki Kali, Janwar and Junglee (which had the 'Yahoo' chartbusting song). Sharmila Tagore and Saira Banu, who made their Bollywood debuts with him in Kashmir Ki Kali and Junglee, respectively, said they would miss the star who was 'high spirited and so full of life."
