Yash Raj’s New York releasing amidst peak of IPL season

Yash Raj Films is releasing their first film of 2009 - New York amidst the peak of IPL's season 2. But then again the release day is also subject to the differences being resolved between film producers, distributors and exhibitors.

One can recall, Yash Raj doing the same last year during IPL's season 1 by releasing their mega starrer Tashan in last week of April and falling flat on its face. One now has to see what is in store for their first release of 2009 which is not a regular typical Yash Raj entertainer but a hard hitting one. The film is a contemporary story of friendship set against the larger than life backdrop of a city often described as the centre of the world. For most of us, larger events in the world are just headlines in the newspapers but these events can change our lives... forever. The film is one such story of 3 young friends whose beautiful lives are turned upside down by larger events beyond their control.

Written and Directed by Kabul Express fame Kabir Khan and Produced by Aditya Chopra, the film stars John Abraham, Katrina Kaif, Neil Nitin Mukesh and Irrfan Khan. The trailer of the movie first released in theatres along with Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and created quiet a buzz. Though its promotions began, they were suddenly stopped in between leading to speculation that film has been postponed for June 2009 release. -Sampurn Media

Katrina Kaif to tread a different path

Despite a setback in the form of Subhash Ghai's YUVVRAAJ, Katrina Kaif is the numero-uno actress of Bollywood, both from the audience as well as the latest newspaper poll. Last year was a pretty good one for Katrina with one super-hit, SINGH IS KINNG, one hit RACE and a flop in YUVRAAJ. HELLO too scraped through to safety, although Katrina's role was a very short guest appearance. 
However, a look at the list of films that Katrina has up her sleeves in 2009, it appears that she is going to retain her number one spot. Coming up in May will be Yash Raj's NEW YORK, where she will seen sharing screen space with John Abraham, Irrfan Khan and Neil Mukesh. Then there is Prakash Jha's political thriller RAJNITI, where she will sport a totally de-glam look. It will be followed by Shree Ashtavinayak's action-thriller, BLUE, with her favourite and lucky co-star, Akshay Kumar along with Sanjay Dutt and Lara Dutta. Another film that she is looking forward to is Priyadarshan's DE DHANA DAN, once again with Akshay and the cast of HERA PHERI. And then there is PARTY and RAVE, both of which are (reportedly) in pre-production 

While taking a look at the films mentioned above we see that there is a variety in the roles that Katrina has chosen. All her characters are very different from the earlier glam doll, dumb belle image (apart from a NAMASTEY LONDON). Her roles are full of substance and will give her ample scope to showcase her acting prowess and help her cement her place on top of the ladder. 

All the best Katty Baby!

The Malaika-Katrina war hots up

There's been a buzz about Malaika Arora Khan disliking her brother-in-law Salman's girlfriend Katrina Kaif. 

It was noticed by many when she gave Katrina's grand birthday bash a miss. Malaika's struggling sister Amrita who makes it a point to hang around with the Khans all the time didn't bother to even wish Kat!

Apparently they share icy cold vibes whenever they are with each other!

The latest is that Salman wanted his lady love Katrina to be in brother Arbaaz Khan's maiden production venture but Malaika put her foot down. This in spite of Katrina being one of the leading actresses of B-Town today!

It's another matter that Kat can't act at all. But we are sure that even Malaika knows nothing about acting! After all she's making her acting debut now, that too in an itsy bitsy role in 'EMI'. All these years she's only been the item girl in various flicks!

Well, Malaika can be jealous too. After all Kat has been lucky enough to achieve a lot in a short span of time. 

The Khans have also been upset with Kat since she agreed to further her career by being a part of the Shah Rukh camp. Malaika must have taken full advantage of the fact.

Arbaaz like an obedient hubby acted according to his dear wife's wish. So Katrina is out of the flick even though Salman is playing the lead role. 

Wonder how Kat plans to fit into this hostile family environment! Or maybe she thinks that being with Salman and his folks is just another stopgap arrangement!
