Big B-SRK the two Stalwarts team up in Farah's next

Amitabh Bachchan is teaming up with Shah Rukh Khan for his production Happy New Year..and by the end of 2009, will shoot for it too.. under the direction of Farah Khan. When the movie was first planned, SRK wasn’t too pleased with the way the storyline was shaping up in the second half. Besides, Bachchan saab wasn’t keeping too well then. So the actor-producer and his director-friend chose to put Happy New Year on hold and started work on another script, Om Shanti Om.

Meanwhile, Farah reworked the script and now that SRK and she are pleased with it, they have decided to make Happy New Year next. The duo will start working on it once SRK completes Karan Johar’s My Name is Khan.

Meanwhile, Amitabh Bachchan , who had expressed his willingness to be a part of the movie then, is believed to be pleased with the script and has even allotted his dates for the shoot.

I just hope this puts an end to all speculations of star wars etc.

"I was not sure how popular our Bollywood films were there. But to my surprise, they seemed to be big fans of our movies and Amitabh Bachchan happened to be their favourite actor.

Most of them wanted to know if I had acted with Mr.Bachchan and asked me all sorts of questions about him," she said.

The highlights of Celina's visit were a visit to the Giza Pyramids, few meetings with the tourism authority of Egypt to create India-Egypt relations especially in the field of entertainment.

She was completely awestruck by the tallest structure in the world standing for over 3,800 years.

It is a narrow passage, which measures about 3-1/2 feet wide by almost 4 feet high. It can be tiring and dangerous but Celina checked in while many of her friends backed out, the release added.

Amitabh Bachchan's compliment on Saawariya

Amitabh Bachchan will remain the highest compliment received by “Saawariya” stars Ranbir and Sonam Kapoor with a letter and a beautiful bunch of flowers

“Have you heard Beethoven’s symphony? There’s a loud orchestra followed by a thin flute sound…This was the genius composer’s interpretation of desire and destiny…

The destiny loud and ominous, the desire soft and gentle. It’s like the two protagonists in ‘Saawariya’,” says Amitabh.

“Ranbir is the storm. Sonam is the soft breeze. Ranbir’s presence is a storm, and Sonam is the graceful, calm, gentle breeze that flowed around him.

The narrative is almost like a Beethoven symphony, where the thunderous sound of the orchestra is always followed by the soft thin flute - a symbolic interpretation of gentle desire and overpowering destiny.”
