AR Rahman signs up for Bollywood remake of 'The Fault In Our Stars'

<p>Sara&nbsp;Ali Khan&#39;s debut is perhaps one of the most anticipated ones in Bollywood this year. When photos from the sets of her debut film Kedarnath were released, the images instantly went viral. &nbsp;The crew has been sharing several on-set photos which have just piqued the curiosity level.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
But will the film ever release? News has it that the film&#39;s director Abhishek Kapoor and producer Prernaa Arora, of KriArj Entertainment, have had their differences and parted ways which has derailed the post-production work on the film.<br />
<br />
No other big producer is willing to take up the project as both Kapoor and Arora have decided to take legal action.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
When Kapoor called up Sara&#39;s mother, actress Amrita Singh about it, the actress lost her cool and lashed out at him. &quot; When Gattu called Dingy (Amrita) to tell her about his decision to fly solo with Kedarnath and only getting a big studio on board for the release, Amrita completely lost her cool with him. A heated argument took place between the two,&quot; a source told DNA.<br />
<br />
Rumours of a spat between the two started last year itself. Prerna wasn&#39;t keen that Kedarnath should release on December 21, as it would clash with SRK&#39;s Zero. However, Abhishek went ahead and announced the release date on Twitter. He refused to budge from his stance.<br />
<br />
When he was asked by the reporters, he had dismissed the rumours and stated that the producer and he were &#39;on the same page&#39;.&nbsp;<br />

<p>The year 2017 is about to come to an end. It was the year where Bollywood saw actors doing multiple projects, of which some really did very well at the box office &nbsp;while some just didn&rsquo;t live up to the expectation of the audience. Actors are now seen mostly taking up limited projects each year and prefer a single release per year. Today, actors are doing multiple films only if they find the content of the film is good enough and if they feel it has the potential to woo the audience.</p>

Makers of Sara Ali Khan - Sushant Singh Rajput starrer 'Kedarnath' construct a set worth Rs 7 Crore

<p>A Bollywood biopic of Mahendra Singh Dhoni is to bring a tragic episode in the Indian cricket hero&#39;s life to movie screens - the death of his first love.&nbsp;&#39;MS Dhoni: The Untold Story&#39;, due for release on September 30, charts the rise of India&#39;s limited-overs captain from boy to train ticket collector to World Cup glory.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who plays Dhoni, told AFP in a video interview that filming scenes that dealt with the death of the cricketer&#39;s former girlfriend had been heart-rending.&nbsp;&quot;It was very difficult because, after we did the preparation, in my head I was him and everything that was happening was actually affecting me,&quot; said the 30-year-old.</p>

<p>In 2002, Dhoni was in his early 20s and trying to break into India&#39;s national team when his girlfriend, Priyanka Jha, was killed in a road accident, according to Indian media reports.&nbsp;A music video released by producers as a teaser shows Dhoni&#39;s character romancing his sweetheart, played in the movie by Disha Patani, just before her death.</p>

<p>Rajput said that it was a particularly moving scene to film.&nbsp;&quot;It was just before I lose her... I was emotional,&quot; explained Rajput.</p>

<p>The film, directed by Neeraj Pandey, includes scenes from Dhoni&#39;s childhood when football was his passion as well as his years as a young ticket collector. It culminates with his heroics at the 2011 final. &nbsp;Rajput, who describes himself as an &quot;ardent&quot; cricket fan, said his preparations for playing an icon had been &quot;exhaustive&quot;.</p>

<p>&quot;People already know the way he talks, walks, plays his cricket so I realised very early that it was a possibility that I could act well in the film but at the same time not be very convincing,&quot; said Rajput.&nbsp;The Hindi actor watched &quot;hours and hours&quot; of videos of Dhoni and met the star several times to study his mannerisms.</p>

<p><strong>Helicopter shot</strong></p>

<p>&quot;There was a certain level of subconscious imitation and it happened from completely immersing myself in him, either thinking about him or looking at him or behaving like him,&quot; said Rajput.&nbsp;Dhoni told a promotional event in New York that he hadn&#39;t enjoyed relaying elements of his life.</p>

<p>&quot;What was most difficult for me was to narrate the story and all of that because I am somebody who lives in the present,&quot; he said, according to footage broadcast by NDTV news.&nbsp;Rajput says he has left no stone unturned in ensuring the cricket scenes would be convincing, even mastering Dhoni&#39;s trademark &quot;helicopter shot&quot;.</p>

<p>&quot;We would carefully analyse it and fix the bowling machine into one spot and then we would play the same shot at least 200, 300 times a day for a week to a point that it came naturally,&quot; he said.&nbsp;The 35-year-old Dhoni, nicknamed &quot;Captain Cool&quot;, is idolised for leading India to victory over Sri Lanka in the 2011 World Cup final. The skipper hit an unbeaten 91 off 79 balls, including a match-winning six.</p>

<p>Rajput said the memory of Dhoni&#39;s exploits at Mumbai&#39;s Wankhede Stadium gave him &quot;goosebumps&quot;.&nbsp;But what did the famously taciturn Dhoni think of the film&#39;s final cut?&nbsp;&quot;He was very moved by it but he didn&#39;t say anything. He kept quiet for 15 minutes, smiled and then left,&quot; said Rajput.</p>

Actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who plays Dhoni, says that filming those scenes had been heart-rending

A Bollywood biopic of Mahendra Singh Dhoni is to bring a tragic episode in the Indian cricket hero's life to movie screens - the death of his first love. 'MS Dhoni: The Untold Story', due for release on September 30, charts the rise of India's limited-overs captain from boy to train ticket collector to World Cup glory. Actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who plays Dhoni, told AFP in a video interview that filming scenes that dealt with the death of the cricketer's former girlfriend had been heart-rending. "It was very difficult because, after we did the preparation, in my head I was him and everything that was happening was actually affecting me," said the 30-year-old.

The film, directed by Neeraj Pandey, includes scenes from Dhoni's childhood when football was his passion as well as his years as a young ticket collector. It culminates with his heroics at the 2011 final. Rajput, who describes himself as an "ardent" cricket fan, said his preparations for playing an icon had been "exhaustive". "People already know the way he talks, walks, plays his cricket so I realised very early that it was a possibility that I could act well in the film but at the same time not be very convincing," said Rajput. The Hindi actor watched "hours and hours" of videos of Dhoni and met the star several times to study his mannerisms. Helicopter shot "There was a certain level of subconscious imitation and it happened from completely immersing myself in him, either thinking about him or looking at him or behaving like him," said Rajput. Dhoni told a promotional event in New York that he hadn't enjoyed relaying elements of his life.

Biopic on MS Dhoni deals with death of cricketer's ex-girlfriend

Indian cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni&#39;s life is coming on the big screen with Neeraj Pandey&#39;s &quot;MS Dhoni: The Untold Story&quot;, but the Indian ODI captain says he did not interfere much with the director&#39;s vision.&nbsp;Dhoni, one of world&#39;s most celebrated cricketers, has co-produced the biopic, which stars Sushant Singh Rajput in the titular role.<br />
<br />
&quot;When Neeraj came to me for the film, I told him, &#39;Ask whatever you want to ask, but beyond that I want this film to be your own&#39;... I answered all his questions and then he took it ahead,&quot; the 35-year-old cricketer said at the film&#39;s trailer launch.&nbsp;Also, present at the event were Neeraj, Sushant and the film&#39;s producers.<br />
<br />
Dhoni shared the most special part about the movie is that it made him learn what his parents feel about his journey in to the cricketing world.<br />
<br />
&quot;I never knew what my parents thought about me when I was getting into cricket or what they felt about my journey. I never asked them... Through this film, I got to know. So, this was a new angle for me in the movie. It was the most special bit.&quot;<br />
<br />
The trailer launch was held at DAV Kulachi Hansraj Model School, where Sushant studied.&nbsp;Interestingly, Dhoni studied in the Ranchi branch of DAV and this was the reason the trailer was unveiled at the Delhi school.&nbsp;The cricketer got nostalgic at the function as he reminisced the &quot;best days of his life&quot;.<br />
<br />
&quot;I think my schooling years were the best times of my life. My coach at school told me that I should play cricket and from there things began... So, I will never forget this part of my life.&quot;<br />
<br />
Dhoni also spoke about importance of extra-curricular activities, including sports, in school.&nbsp;&quot;My school encouraged sports and other activities, and I feel that&#39;s how it should be everywhere. Sports should not be looked down upon.&quot;<br />
<br />
&quot;MS Dhoni: The Untold Story&quot; also stars Anupam Kher, Bhumika Chawla, Rajesh Sharma and Kiara Advani. It is set to release on September 30.<br />
