Groove with SRK and Anushka on the ‘Butterfly’ song from JHMS

0

After releasing the teaser of their fourth song 'Butterfly' today morning, the makers of JAB HARRY MET SEJAL have released the song on the same day.

Now we are wondering what was the logic behind releasing both the promotional material on the same day! We mean what purpose does that serves?

Anyways 'Butterfly' is a typical Punjabi number a la 'Nagada' style from the director's hit film JAB WE MET.

We see Shah Rukh sporting a pagdi (turban) in the song which is something we have never seen him in before, while Anushka who is playing a Gujju girl in the film is seen in a typical Punjabi kudi avatar in this song.

Crooned by Aman Trikha, Nooran Sisters, Sunidhi Chauhan and Dev Negi the song is written by Irshad Kamil and composed by Pritam.

The video of this song reminds you of JAB WE MET and LOVE AAJ KAL film in bits and parts. Now we just hope that the entire film doesn't end up reminding the audience of Imtiaz's previous films in bits and part.

Watch the official video of ‘Butterfly’ here:

Akshay Kumar is the new face of Public Toilets and how!

When it comes to film promotions or grabbing the eye balls of the audience, filmmakers & actors can go to any extent. They will leave no stones unturned to make the right noise for their film. While some go on promotion spree, some others opt for exaggerated marketing and have larger-than-life presence. And there are some who adopt for contextual advertisement to hit the right note.

Well, we are talking about Akshay Kumar starrer TOILET – EK PREM KATHA, which has been in news already for its unusual content and name.  Now the makers & the innovative brains behind the marketing of the film have quite interestingly made use of point blank contextual advertising to publicize. Since the film has PM Narendra Modi's Swacch Bharat Abhiyan campaign as its underlining subject and highlights the importance of the pay-and-use toilet scheme and curbing the social evil of defecating in the open, the makers have placed the posters of the film outside public toilets. Thereby giving out the message clear & wide along with the film promotion.

Well, after witnessing this stint, we won’t be surprised if the protagonists of the film – Akshay Kumar & Bhumi Pednekar use the public toilets for marketing & promotions to make it appear more real!

How Kareena’s ‘Talaash’ for the name Taimur was ended by Nawaz!

0

Now this one is pretty interesting fact which will leave you awestruck!

When the new mommy of B-town Kareena Kapoor Khan named her little bundle of joy as Taimur Ali Khan, there was a lot of hue and cry over it. There was a huge social media outrage over Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s son’s unique name. More than being good news for the couple, Taimur’s name attracted controversy and sparked a row on social media.

KAREENA KAPOOR KHAN, TAIMUR ALI KHAN and NAWAZUDDIN SIDDIQUI

However, mom Kareena found the entire controversy and frenzy over the name a bit bizarre. She also said in one of the interviews that the name had 'no resemblance to any person living or dead. Kareena even revealed that they fell in love with the name Taimur, which means Iron.

While she probably didn’t take inspiration from any of the real life personalities, but it looks like Kareena might have taken the idea of the name ‘Taimur’ from her film TALAASH – The Answer Lies Within. Puzzled how? Well, as we came across Nawazuddin’s character in the film (who had a brief yet impactful appearance in the film), we realised the uncanny resemblance between his character name and Kareena Kapoor’s son’s name. In the film Nawaz’s character was named as ‘Tehmur’, which sounds exactly like Kareena Kapoor Khan’s little munchkin Taimur’s name. Wonder if Kareena was so impressed with Nawaz’s character that she named Saif’s son as Taimur! 

Now whether Kareena took the idea from her film or it was a mere coincidence is something only she can answer. Nevertheless, we are loving this interesting coincidence!
