Vrooom!
That’s not Dhoom... it’s Dishoom! Varun Dhawan and John Abraham are the boys on bikes in this action-packed sequence from their biggie that hits screens in April 2016. Directed by Rohit Dhawan — Varun’s big brother who earlier directed John in Desi Boyz — Dishoom has been shot in Mumbai and Morocco and stars Jacqueline Fernandez as the woman in the middle. Akshaye Khanna — yes, he’s still around! — makes a comeback, with Akshay Kumar, Arjun Rampal and Nargis Fakhri putting in cameos.
Drum it up
Dad Shotgun turned 70 on December 9 and daughter Sonakshi Sinha celebrated in a special way — putting up a public performance, playing a Chenda, a cylindrical wooden drum, at a resort in Kerala where the entire Sinha family congregated for the celebrations. As fans clapped and cheered, Sonakshi — accompanied by papa Shatrughan and mom Poonam — played the musical instrument like a pro, even matching beats with an all-woman percussion group. Now, all she needs to do is hit the sweet spot with her films!
Love you hamesha!
