Ramoji Film City is buzzing with action as two Bollywood movies and four Tamil films are being simultaneously shot there Here’s a low-down on what all is happening.
Madhur wooing Bebo?
Madhur Bhandarkar has flown into town and gone straight to Ramoji Film City to allegedly convince Kareena Kapoor, his original choice, to replace Ash in his film Heroine. What transpired between the two is under wraps but sources say Kareena has almost agreed to sign on the dotted line.
Bebo watching Saif
Kareena Kapoor has decided to spend some quality time with boyfriend Saif in Hyderabad because according to sources close to the actor she isn’t very comfortable with him spending too much time with co-star Deepika Padukone.
Though Saif and Deepika have always denied having an affair, during the making of Love Aaj Kal, everyone on sets were talking about their proximity and Bebo doesn’t want a repeat of that episode.
Also, though very much in love, everyone is gossiping about how the couple have recently been fighting and indulging in slanging matches a bit too often. So maybe they can make up at leisure at the non-tourist friendly Falaknuma Palace where they plan to stay for a day.
Tourists hound the stars
While Film City is thrilled to bits that it’s running full house, the actors temporarily living there are said to be an annoyed bunch as they have zero privacy. City tours are organised daily to the studio and ever since word spread that B-town stars are shooting there, tourists are hounding them.
They arrive in big buses and the moment they spot a famous face they get into stalker mode.
Poor Tusshar Kapoor who had gone to the gym for a work-out went running back to his room in five minutes after he was surrounded by sari-clad aunties who started taking pictures of him when working out.
Vidya Balan who is shooting for Dirty Picture is another one getting constantly mobbed. When she walked into her hotel, she didn’t realise that a wedding was going on there. But the moment a few guests spotted her, word quickly spread and almost everyone left the bride and groom to themselves and rushed towards the startled actress.
Saif mobbed
Saif Khan, who is here for a month to shoot for Cocktail with Deepika Padukone, was mobbed by the besotted hotel receptionists. The moment they saw him, they ran towards him and took pictures with him.
Actors crib they can’t even eat in peace as tourists there try to capture every morsel they eat. They just land up at the restaurants when they spot a star. On one day the stars were escorted back to their rooms via the kitchen in order to escape the crowds.
After complaining about getting mobbed and having random fans ring their room bells, actors have now requested for security guards to be posted on all the floors they are staying on.
Love is in the air
Just like how Kareena flew down to be with Saif, Vidya Balan’s boyfriend Siddharth Roy Kapoor is also said to be in town to keep his lady-love company after she wraps up shooting.
Movie time
Apart from bonding with friends Bebo wants to use this time to catch up with her Hyderabadi friends too. When someone asked Kareena how come she has friends in this city, she replied, “Why, am I not entitled to have friends?”
She is said to have hosted a private screening of the film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara for all her buddies here at film city as she too was very keen on watching the film.
On Wednesday, Tusshar Kapoor is organising a special screening of his pal Rohit Shetty’s film Singham.
