Sushmita Sen to play Benazir Bhutto

The guesses for the lead role in the movie on the Pakistan’s powerful lady politician Benazir Bhutto, who was assassinated last year, has been abuzz for quite sometime now. Now, we have it that Sushmita Sen has finally bagged this role of her lifetime. The actress is also brushing up her Urdu for the role.

The movie, a biopic of the slain leader, will be a joint venture by Vox Vision and Sum Films and will be shot in Pakistan and England.

Sushmita was busy for quite some time with the making of ‘Rani Laxmi Bai’ and judging reality show ‘Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena’. She had done extensive research for ‘Rani Laxmi Bai’. She had learnt the martial arts and was ready to direct the film herself. Now, with Sush getting such a big opportunity the fate of her so-called dream project seems uncertain.

Aamir’s novel idea of promoting ‘Ghajini’

Aamir Khan has done it again. Known to be the trendsetter and a perfectionist in that too, Aamir has devised a never before heard method to promote ‘Ghajini’. Aamir has been blogging for quite sometime now, and this time he has made a website on the film’s name aimed to create a better relationship between him and the journalists on the personal level.

A journalist who wishes to be part of this website, www.rememberghajini.com/media,
can register in it and also should upload his or her photograph so that when Aamir meets this media person next time, he will be able to recall the professional and personal details of the person. Upon registration the journalist will also get an information kit of ‘Ghajini’ alongwith a personal note written by Aamir in his profile.

This idea of the website is based on the peculiar habit of his character in ‘Ghajini’ who writes down the details of the people because of having a short term memory.

It goes like this.
