Kapil Sharma Recalls Gate-Crashing A Wedding, Meeting Zeenat Aman With Plate In Hand
Mumbai: Actor-comedian Kapil Sharma once gate-crashed a wedding. On top of it, fate helped him, as he met Zeenat Aman at the wedding.
A recently resurfaced video from Kapil's show features him narrating the story to veteran actresses Zeenat Aman and Poonam Dhillon.
During the episode, Kapil told Zeenat Aman, 'It was in 2003 or 2004. I was in Delhi. My father was undergoing treatment there. One of my friends told me to come to the wedding function quickly saying, 'There are a lot of people here'. There was a wedding in Maurya in Delhi. Vandana Luthra, the daughter of the family who are into cosmetic business'.
He further mentioned, as he pointed towards the actress, 'You went there. I didn't even understand, I was studying in college, and was very naive. I had a plate in my hand. I wanted to take a photo. Zeenat asked me to keep the plate down. I didn't know that it was considered ill-manner to take a photo with a plate. You were a guest there. I went there as an unauthorized guest'.

Earlier, Zeenat Aman had shared an anecdote from 'Hum Kisise Kum Naheen'. The senior actress took to her Instagram, and shared a clip from her film 'Hum Kisise Kum Naheen'. The actress narrated the story behind her only scene in the film.
She also penned a long in the caption, as she wrote, 'Oh, you're a Hindi cinema buff but you've never heard this song? That, my dear, is probably because you are very young. Play it for your parents, and they'll immediately be able to place it. Here's the truth, of all the men I worked with from the Kapoor khandan, Rishi and I interacted the least both socially and professionally. In fact, in all the years that our careers overlapped, we only featured together in this one song. That too because Director Nasir Hussain had me pinned as a bit of a lucky talisman that year. Why? Because 'Yaadon ki Baaraat', his previous film in which I had starred, had been a blockbuster hit'.

People don't want to believe in reality, but create their own version of reality and want it to be that way. It should not be. We don't have that kind of unity where we stick around and say this is wrong," Sunny said. Sunny also expressed his dismay at the growing trend in the film industry, which involves corporate bookings and bulk buying of tickets to create an illusion of success. He questioned the ethics behind these strategies and said, 'People who are enjoying the lies (of exaggerated box office numbers), I don't understand what kind of people they are. I would like to advise the youngsters that this is not the way to make yourself a hit. That is why many youngsters and stories are not coming out.' Sunny also highlighted a larger problem of erosion of authenticity in cinema. He added that success is no longer measured by the impact of a story or the strength of a performance, but by manipulated figures. Sunny Deol's latest projects Sunny Deol was last seen in Jaat, which marked director Gopichand Malineni's Hindi film debut. Jaat also starred Regina Cassandra, Randeep Hooda, Vineet Kumar Singh, Saiyami Kher, Ramya Krishnan, and Jagapathi Babu. He is now shooting for Border 2, a sequel to the 1997 war drama Border.

Restored, uncut version of 'Sholay' to be showcased at Il Cinema Ritrovato Festival in Bologna
NEW DELHI: 'Sholay', one of India's most celebrated films of all time, is set to create magic on the big screen once again with the premiere of its fully restored, uncut version at the prestigious Il Cinema Ritrovato Festival in Bologna, Italy. The screening, commemorating the film's 50th anniversary, will take place on June 27 at the open-air Piazza Maggiore, said a press release. Featuring an ensemble cast of Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Hema Malini, Sanjeev Kumar, Jaya Bacchan and Amjad Khan, Sholay was written by Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar and directed by Ramesh Sippy. The film is considered an inalienable part of Indian pop culture due to its popular characters like Jai, Veeru and Thakur as well as Gabbar Singh, one of the iconic villains of Hindi cinema, and plenty of dialogues and action sequences. "Some things in life remain permanently etched in your mind. 'Sholay' is one such film," said Amitabh Bachchan, who played the role of Jai in the movie. He also recalled the "unforgettable experience" of shooting the movie. "At the time I had no idea that it would be a watershed for Indian cinema. Its dramatic change in fortunes from being declared an unsuccessful venture, to its record-breaking box office run was an emotional rollercoaster for all of us." "It's wonderful that the Film Heritage Foundation has restored 'Sholay' and that they have managed to locate and include the original ending as well as some deleted scenes in the restoration. I hope that even 50 years later, the film will capture the imagination of new audiences across the world," he added.
