Saif Ali Khan and Imtiaz Ali are smiling these days. After tearing their hair out to come up with a title for Saif’s home production co-starring Deepika Padukone, they have finally come up with a title that suits the film. It’s ‘Love Aaj Kal’. Our source close to Saif said, “Imtiaz and Saif couldn’t arrive at a decision as far as naming the film was concerned. So they decided to go ahead with their shooting and brainstorm about the film’s name later. Eventually they both were so hassled that Saif thought of holding a contest inviting the audience to suggest a suitable name for their film.” After the film’s shooting, Imtiaz and Saif had to eventually sit down for a brainstorming session. The source added, “The duo came up with different names. After a lot of deliberation and thought, Imtiaz decided to call the film, ‘Aaj Aur Kal’, but was still apprehensive about it. Imtiaz wanted to change the title from ‘Aaj Aur Kal’ to ‘Aaj Kal’. But Saif disagreed with him saying that he wanted a title that would instantly connect with the audience, like ‘Jab We Met’. They then decided on ‘Love Aaj Kal’.” Though Imtiaz remained unavailable for comment, a source close to the director confirmed the news and said, “Yes Imtiaz has decided to call the film ‘Love Aaj Kal’.”

I'll do anything for director Meher since he is like my brother,” she opines. Being the remake of Hindi film Don, she would be invariably stepping into the shoes of Helen and Kareena Kapoor for this sizzling number. Will it be a real sizzler? “Neither do I know about the concept nor about my costume,” she smiles. Unlike her peers Ileana and Trisha, she is breaking a new ground. Could Prabhas-Hansika jodi set the screen on fire?

Mumbai, Jan 20 (IANS) Now that Shyam Benegal has decided to revive his costliest project "Chamki", a desi version of French musician Georges Bizet's 1875 opera "Carmen", the question is who will play the title role of a free-spirited fiery-tempered gypsy in the movie?
According to sources, Priyanka Chopra more than Kareena Kapoor is the natural choice to play Chamki since the role requires a trained dancer.
When contacted, Priyanka told IANS that she was open to the offer. "But I read the script ages ago. The whole project now has to be evaluated afresh. And who wouldn't want to work with Shyam Benegal?"
"Chamki" has been pending for a while. Earlier, the project was with Sanjay Gupta. Now, Big Pictures is producing the film.
In the past too, both Priyanka and Kareena were approached for "Chamki", but they opted out for various reasons.
"Kareena was excited to begin with. She was supremely charged by the role and what Benegal had done with her sister Karisma in 'Zubeidaa'. But then she opted out - as she often does from offbeat challenges like Deepa Mehta's 'Water' and Rituparno Ghosh's 'Raincoat' - pleading it was too early for her to attempt something so unconventional," said a source close to the project.
"Then came Priyanka who was quite kicked about the part, but she and the film's then producer Sanjay Gupta had a fallout after Priyanka said no to his 'Musafir'. The 'Chamki' role then went to Urmila Matondkar, who had monetary issues with the producer."
With the film changing producers, it is understood that money is no longer an issue.
While Priyanka is still interested in the project, Kareena's views were not yet known.
"Kareena continues to have reservations about non-mainstream cinema. Barring Pritish Nandy Communications' 'Chameli', she has never returned to non-mainstream cinema," said the source.
'Chamki', set in Rajasthan, is being re-designed as a big broad epic musical with choreography and lavish songs by Javed Akhtar and A.R. Rahman.
