To introduce music baron Kumar Taurani’s son Girish Taurani as a leading man, director Prabhudheva has selected the title of a vintage Raj Kapoor song. <em>Ramaiya Vastavaiya</em> is the title of a classic song from Raj Kapoor’s 1955 classic <em>Sri 420</em>. Now Prabhu Deva wants permission to use that song in the film to launch Girish Taurani.

Fans of eternal diva Rekha will have a special treat in store for them as the stunningly talented actress will be soon seen on the silver screen. Recently a divine pooja was held on the auspicious and once in a lifetime date of 12.12.12, at 12 noon for Indra Kumar and Ashok Thakeria’s Maruti International next film <em>Super Nani</em>, said to be a family entertainer. Dressed in an elegant off white sari, the charismatic actress offered her prayers to the almighty along with Randhir Kapoor, Sharman Joshi and Shweta Kumar.

The seventh annual South Asian Film Festival (SAFF) to be held in Goa from 25 to 28 October will felicitate yesteryear actor Randhir Kapoor. The festival, that will showcase over 40 films from South Asian countries, will be inaugurated by Member of Parliament and SAFF's steering committee member Tariq Anwar.

When they worked together as hero and villain 38 years ago in the blockbuster Haath Ki Safaai, Randhir Kapoor and Vinod Khanna barely exchanged pleasantries on the sets. Today, when they’re working together in Prabhu Deva’s untitled love story in and around Pune… the two veteran actors have hit off so well that the director frequently finds himself waiting with a patient smile as they wrap up their conversation before a shot. And now when Randhir Kapoor’s daughter Kareena’s wedding loomed large the father of the bride had to take a chunk of time off from film’s schedule.

Life comes to a full circle for Vinod Khanna and Randhir Kapoor. 38 Years after Prakash Mehra’s Haath Ki Safaai they’re coming together again in Prabhudheva’s Hindi remake of his Tamil hit Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana. The veterans had played long-lost brothers in Haath Ki Safaai.

It’s quite logical, really. To have the year’s biggest wedding-and we don’t need to state which one-would be held in Mumbai instead of Saif Ali Khan’s native place Pataudi, as planned earlier. It was the father of the bride Randhir Kapoor who approached the mother of the bridegroom Sharmila Tagore requesting that the venue be shifted from the Pataudi’s ancestral place to <em>amchi</em> Mumbai.
