Sooraj Pancholi breaks down on stage

There was high drama at the trailer launch of Hero on Wednesday evening when Salman Khan officially presented his discoveries Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty to the public.

It was an evening of high emotional tides for Sooraj. While recalling the trauma and turmoil that he has undergone while shooting the film, the young actor broke down.
Says a source close to Sooraj, "Sooraj couldn't hold back his tears as he recalled all the pain he had suffered during the last two years. The death of his girlfriend actress Jiah Khan and subsequent attempts by Jiah's mother to implicate him in the alleged suicide has taken its toll on Sooraj. He shot the film through a haze of pain and hurt...It all came out bubbling to the surface at the trailer launch on Wednesday."
Sooraj wept on stage, and Salman Khan came forward to console him. It was a moment of heartbreaking bonding between the protege and the mentor. Both have gone through their share of agony vis-a-vis the law.
Says a close friend of Sooraj, "There is an unspoken bond between Salman and Sooraj. Though they don't speak about it much they feel one another's pain."

Incidentally Sooraj's mother actress Zarina Wahab couldn't make it to her son's trailer launch. "I really wanted to be there. But I was shooting for an ad. And there was no way they could let me go for a few hours. I watched the trailer after I returned home late at night after the shooting. Really proud of my son and Athiya," said Zarinaji emotionally.

Wide release for Salman's next!

By HT

Mumbai, July 14 -- From North African countries to the smallest towns in India, Bollywood actor Salman Khan's upcoming film, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, will be distributed far and wide.

Talking about how excited the industry is about the movie, trade expert Taran Adarsh says, "Expectations from Bajrangi Bhaijaan are humongous, mainly because it is releasing on Eid, and brings back the combination of Salman Khan and Kabir Khan (director) after the successful film, Ek Tha Tiger (2012). If the movie gets a wide release in India, as well as in the international markets, it only goes to prove that the film is piping hot among the audience, distributors and exhibitors."

The film will cover approximately 50 countries outside India, and more than 700 screens. Out of these, the four major international markets - USA, UK, UAE and Australia - have 450 screens.

In totality, the film will be releasing in more than 5,000 screens, with approximately 4,500 prints in India and others overseas. While the film will follow the norm, and release on Friday, July 17, in most of these countries, in some non-traditional markets such as Morocco, Tunisia, Korea, Taiwan and Poland, it will release at a later date.

Amar Butala, co-producer and COO, Salman Khan Films, says, "Bajrangi Bhaijaan is this year's most awaited film, be it for the audiences, the distributors or exhibitors. This will be Salman's widest release till date in India and in the overseas market.

We are confident that the content of the film will not only be loved by his fans in India, but will also resonate with newer audiences across the 50-plus countries that the film will release in." Produced by Salman and Rockline Venkatesh, Bajrangi Bhaijaan also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in lead roles. The film will be distributed worldwide by Eros International, and is scheduled for release on Eid 2015.

Rachel McAdams shadowed police

Rachel McAdams shadowed police for her role in 'True Detective'.

The 36-year-old actress took part in a ''ride-along'', as research for her role of Ani in the TV series, and has revealed she learnt that ''everybody is lying''.

Rachel said: ''I did a ride-along with police and I learned that everybody is lying to everybody else. I get it now when police officers are cynical, because criminals are always trying to pull one over on them.''

Rachel insisted she loved working on 'True Detective', because of her character, as well as her co-star Colin Farrell, who she said is a ''delight''.

Speaking to Stylist magazine, she said: ''I felt connected to Ani on a gut level. I understood her as soon as I read her. Working with Colin was a delight. He would come to my trailer for a chat and a cup of tea every day. We got really into chocolate coconut chips.''

Another famous actor who Rachel is excited about working with is 34-year-old Jake Gyllenhaal, in her upcoming film 'Southpaw', in which she stars as Maureen, the wife of a boxer who's rebuilding his life.

She said: ''Jake and I have been trying to work together for years and this came up and he was so passionate about it and Maureen is a totally different character to anything I've done before.

''I'm actually a bit older than Jake. It still happens a lot. I think it's fulfilling some sort of male fantasy, but we're slowly getting past that.''

Zoe Kravitz wasn't spoilt

Zoe Kravitz insists she wasn't spoilt as a child.

The 'Mad Max: Fury Road' actress, who is the daughter of rocker Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa Bonet, grew up with a private chef and a housekeeper, but says she was raised her ''in an old-school way.''The 26-year-old star said: ''We had a chef, but it was never like, 'This is the way the world works, Zoe.' I knew we were very lucky, and my dad raised me in an old-school way. His mom [actress Roxie Roker] was from the Bahamas, and it was about manners and making the bed. It's that old black s**t, really -- like, you get smacked if you talk the wrong way. It was about having respect for your elders and being thankful for what we had. He wanted to make sure I had chores, and not because we didn't have a housekeeper, but because of the principle of the thing.''While she is extremely close to both of her parents, the starlet, who also performs in the band Lolawolf, admits she ''was very self-conscious'' about following in Lenny's footsteps.She told the August issue of NYLON magazine: ''There was a point in my teens where I was very self-conscious and didn't want to make any music because I would get compared to my dad. But I knew I was working hard. I'm not a f**king genius, but I know who I am as an artist. The one thing about art is you can't question it. Everyone is looking at everyone else to find out what's cool. No one knows what's cool. Just do it with confidence -- no one can take that away from you.''
