Chennai, Aug 16: Actress Nisha Kothari, known for films like "James" and "Sarkar" with ace filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, will soon be seen in Telugu thriller "Criminals" after a hiatus of five years. Her last Telugu film was the 2008 release "Oka Magaadu".
"Nisha plays an important role in the film. The story is set against a series of cyber crimes and I thought she would fit the bill of one of the lead characters. The film os set to go on floors in September and we plan to shoot non-stop for over two months," the film's director, Tulasi Ram, told Ians.
"Criminals" will supersede his directorial debut "Mantra", he added.

Film: "Karimedu"; Cast: Pooja Gandhi, Raghu Mukherjee, Makarand Deshpande, Ravi Kale, Ravi Shankar, Nisha Kothari, Muni, Karisubbu, Yathiraj and Jaidev; Director: Srinivasaraju; Rating: ***1/2
I love a film that doesn't hesitate to present what it had originally planned to such as "Karimedu", which takes a true story and treats it with such honesty that you want to laud the effort. Even though it is all about heinous crimes and gore, you can't possibly hate the film because it recreates true events to perfection that will send chills up your spine.
Can we imagine a film without a hero and a villain? But, here is a film that strips itself of the commercial tag and narrates the story of eleven members of one of the most feared.

Hyderabad, April 19: Nisha Kothari, Ram Gopal Varma's old favourite actress cum muse never quite managed to live up to the hype and stir she had created in B- town when she stormed into the industry with "Agyaat-the unknown". It flopped miserably at the box office and to add to her woes, her next film with Rgv, "Ram Gopal Varma ki Aag" also fared disastrously and sank without a trace. After these two debacles, Nisha it seems must have gone into some sort of reverie or hiding just to stop and take stock of where she is heading.
And if sense had prevailed, she would not have been signing a third movie with her mentor, Rgv. But.

Ram Gopal Varma has always been a director who likes to have a muse. First it was Urmila Matondkar who the director was obsessed over. This was followed by Antara Mali and Nisha aka Priyanka Kothari. Now it seems Ramu's latest obsession is with Brazilian model Nathalia Kaur. Nathalie makes her debut with Rgv's Department and is seen scorching the silver screen in the 'Dan Dan' item song. Rgv has been more than vocal with his comments about this former Kingfisher model. Earlier this week, Ramu tweeted, "I don't knw wht Brazil produces as agricultural products nd industrial products bt I really wnt 2 thank Brazil for producing @nathalia_kaur" Ramu further added, "The good thing about being shorter than @nathalia_kaur is that u can enjoy her beauty from the bottom" It remains to be seen if Ramu's Nathalia fixation continues for a while or is it only a ploy...

Ever since the Veena Malik-FHM nude photoshoot controversy broke out, there were contradictory versions given by both, the Pakistani starlet and the international magazine, about her nude cover shoot, shot by photographer Vishal Saxena.
There were legal notices and counter notices sent by Veena and FHM to each other. It seemed like a never-ending puzzle till recently, when prominent fashion designer Umair Zafar decided to spill the beans.
Speaking to The Times of India, Umair states, “A few days before the FHM cover was out, photographer Vishal Saxena told me to be prepared for a big dhamaka.”
Umair reveals to the paper that “Veena Malik did the shoot topless with her hands covering the upper part of her body. She was wearing a bikini panty below, which was later on morphed and removed electronically by photographer Vishal Saxena. All this was pre-decided and agreed upon by all concerned.”

He?s almost 33 years old, but actor Aftab Shivdasani is still often referred to as the ?Farex baby?. The baby who became a child actor played his first lead role as a teenager in Ram Gopal Varma?s Mast followed by roles in Kasoor, Awara Paagal Deewana, Hungama, Masti, Daddy Cool and Aloo Chaat, among others.

The award for most 'Underrated Actor' over and over again has been given to Aftab Shivdasani by fans and admirers. He was a Rgv debutant who wooed the ladies with Mast and later went onto impress the critics with Kasoor. However, what poor Aftab could never do is win the box office lotto! While the actor was part of some hits such as Masti and Awara Paagal Deewana, he's yet to have a solid blockbuster he can call his own.
2011 may just be the year for the actor who has returned from a yearlong break, which he says, was an important decision as every creative person needs a break to reinvent themselves. The actor now returns with Chandrakant Singh's (Rama Rama Kya Hai Drama) film Bin Bulaye Baarati. He's already started shooting for the film and is very psyched about it.

Real life scandals have always been rich fodder for inspiring Bollywood films. Be it a snide reference or as the main story, the transition from real to reel life offers a welcome respite for viewers saturated with plagiarized films. The current Ipl saga is an ideal story around which a film script can be woven. I can already foresee a few filmmakers who would already have their first draft ready.
Mahesh Bhatt
Lalit Modi will be played by Emran Hashmi. Having already practiced his ‘cricketing’ skills in Jannat, he will best suit this part. John Abraham will play Shashi Tharoor, for this is one role where it’s more important to look good than act well. Sunanda Pushkar is to be played by Kangana Ranaut. As the movie goes along, thanks to all the allegations of receiving sweat equity, she develops a drug habit and becomes paler by the reel.

April 21, 2010: Ram Gopal Varma is one filmmaker who always makes the kind of film he believes in. The flamboyant director is does exactly what he pleases without caring about the consequences. Be it the hype surrounding his controversial flicks like Nishabh or Ram Gopal Varma ki Aag or his alleged closeness to starlets like Priyanka Kothari, the man is undeterred. He also speaks his mind and doesn’t mince words.
Ramu, as he is fondly called, is in the public eye lately post his recent release Phoonk 2. The film was a debacle to say the least and received brickbats galore. Not only does Rgv remain unfazed,.

Film: ‘Kacheri Aarambam’; Cast: Jeeva, Poonam Bajwa, J.D. Chakravarthy, Vadivelu, Nisha Kothari; Director: Thiraivannan; Music Director: D. Imman; Rating: **
Jeeva delivers yet another commercial potboiler without bothering to worry about finesse. Debutant director Thiraivannan seems to be content with a cliched story and, hence, takes no strain to tell us anything new or novel. The story is all about a youth coming to the city, falling in love and confronting the baddie.

The game of musical chairs that has been plaguing the Jaya Bachchan-Raveena Tandon-Ayesha Takiya-Madhavan starrer Aap Ke Liye Hum has finally ended. Urvashi Sharma who was supposed to play Ranvir Shorey's wife has been replaced by Vidya Malvade, last seen as Sanjay Dutt's wife in Sanjay Gadhvi's Kidnap. But the battle it seems has just begun. While the director Revathy S Varma accuses Urvashi of un-professionalism the young actress isn't sitting idle either. She has her own story to tell. ''I can't understand how I can be accused of un-professionalism when the makers of this film have been the most unprofessional. Their very first cheque bounced even before the first schedule. This wouldn't happen to Jayaji's cheque because she's a legend, or Raveena Tandon or Ayesha Takia because they're both established names. Only my cheque bounced. Why?'' Urvashi however absolves the director of all blame.

Bengali actress Priyanka Kothari, currently starring in Agyaat, would love to meet a ghost - even though she doesn't believe in them. However, she says the shooting for Agyaat was bedeviled with bad luck. "As soon as I entered the jungle, I broke my ankle which was followed by the broken leg of one of the crew members,” she explains. Soon after that, one of the camerapersons got an electric shock with the result that the camera was lost in the river water nearby."
After a bumpy start, Priyanka's career is finally beginning to take root, due partly to her hot promo number for Agyaat. She admits, however, that her time spent shooting for the movie in the rainforests of Sri Lanka was not the happiest time of her life."I was living with 10 lizards and five frogs in my room," she explains, "One day a monkey entered my room and stole my jewellery box.

It seems that Rani Mukerji who's been quite conservative(conservative of course only in comparison to what the likes of Priyanka Kothari and Sherlyn Chopra have brought on screen) when it comes to her costume but looks like times are changing and so is our Rani who's all set to go from a behenji to a babe!
Yes you read right! The award-winning actress is rumoured to be hopping on the ‘bikini brigade' and that too for none other than her beloved production house Yash Raj Films. Rani has been working day and night on her new hot bod with Aamir Khan's trainer Satyadev. It seems that in Dil Bole Hadippa we'll be seeing two extremes of Rani like never before, first there's the Sikh-cricket-playing Rani and then there's the ultra hot-i-fied Rani! You can see this new look in the video for Hadippa the Remix

Cast: Nisha Kothari, Nitin Reddy, Ravi Kale, Ishrat Ali, Kali Prasad Mukherjee, Harvey Rosemeyer, Rasika Duggal, Joy Fernandes and Gautam Rode; Director: Rgv; Rating: 2 out of 5.
Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Agyaat’ is as shoddy as the dead dummy publicity gimmick he deployed to publicise the flick. A disappointment to say the least, considering Ramu’s last year’s horror offering ‘Phoonk’ where even the otherwise innocuous crow had sent shivers down all our spines.

Movie Review: Agyaat: Is film se mujhe bachao; Star cast: Introducing Nitin Reddy, Priyanka Kothari, Gautam Rode, Ishrat Ali, Howard Rosemeyer, Joy Fernandes and Ravi Kale; Director: Ram Gopal Varma; Rating: *1/2.
Irrespective of the fact that his last few films haven’t really been great experiences, one still enters a Ram Gopal Varma movie with certain expectations in mind. But Ramu nowadays it seems is hell bent on scaring even his most loyal fans away. Agyaat turns out to be one such experience wherein you go in expecting a thrill ride but come out absolutely unmoved rather.
