Director Rajkumar Santoshi-Ajay Devgan combo has always impressed the critics, the National Award jury and of course the fans of intelligent cinema. So public is expecting a lot from their upcoming Friday release, HALLA BOL, which sure looks quite promising. “It is a good film, which discusses important social issues. It has all the elements to entertain the viewers,” Santoshi told reporters Ajay Devgan, who is playing the lead role in the film, added: “Through our film we have tried to urge people to raise their voice against injustice. I hope it leaves an impact and people like it.” The film is based on the late Safdar Hashmi, who was killed by political goons while trying to stage the street play “Halla Bol” in Delhi in 1989. And to promote the film, the stars of this film are busy doing street pays in different places of the country.

Shahid to work with father

Filed under: Pankaj Kapur, Rajkumar Santoshi, Shahid Kapur — Desibaba @ 10:44 pm

Father Pankaj Kapur and son Shahid Kapur will hopefully be working together in a film. Rajkumar Santoshi is scripting the film, and it was Rajkumar who insisted on having the father son duo to work together in his film. There is no information from either Shahid or Pankaj and they both say it is too early to divulge into any information. There have been other attempts for directors to have the two to work together but things did not work out, but the approach by Rajkumar will be like icing on a cake says Shahid, and for him it is like a dream come true to work with his father. All we can do is wait for the film to be released and judge for ourselves how well the two are together.
