Himesh Reshammiya is an ardent fan of hers and made his surprise quite evident when she decided to work with him. Urmila Matondkar is making a huge comeback with Karzzzz. The new ‘Kamini’ is as vibrant and good looking as she used to be and the innocence on her face hasn’t withered a bit either. We caught up with the actress and got chit chatting.

What Karzzzz are you under right now?
Urmila: I’m under the Karzzzz of the people who are responsible for where I am today. I’m trying my best to repay the Karzzzz with each of my films.

Are you also under the Karzzzz of actress Simi Garewal, whose role you’re portraying?
Urmila: I think comparisons are a part of an actor’s life. When you’re new, you’re compared to established actresses; later on you’re compared to actresses at your own level. It’s something the media does best. What an actor needs to do work to his best abilities. My ultimate referee is my audience.

In the original film, Simi Garewal had no item number, but it seems an Urmila film has to have one?
Urmila: You’ll have to ask Satish Kaushik and Bhushan Kumar about that. In ‘Tandoori Nights’, it’s Kamini letting her hair down, so I had to keep that in mind. If it was Urmila dancing, I’d set the stage on fire.

When we first found out you were going to play Kamini, we were quite surprised as we didn’t think you’ve got the look of a murderer.
Urmila: Manish Malhotra and others always tell me my face hasn’t changed since my film Masoom. When there is so much God gifted innocence on your face it gets really challenging to portray different characters.

Why did Urmila choose to work with self confessed ‘Dhokla boy’, Himesh? Will Karzzzz be able to retain the surprise element of the original film? This and more in an exclusive chat with Urmila Matondkar.

Shree Ashthavinayak Cine Vision Ltd’s forthcoming movie Kidnap starring Sanjay Dutt, Imran Khan and Minissha Lamba has been cleared by the Censor Board with UA certificate without even a single cut.

The keenly awaited movie releases worldwide on 2nd October 2008 and is directed by Sanjay Gadhvi of Dhoom fame.

This marks Imran’s second release after Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and breaks his chocolate boy image, while Minissha goes for an all glam and sexy makeover. The story revolves around how Imran Khan kidnaps Sanjay Dutt’s daughter, played by Minissha Lamba, to settle old scores.

With such an interesting starcast and plot, we bet the audiences are eagerly anticipating the film to hit the screens on 2nd October!

The cool-as-a-cucumber Khan will indulge in more mind games in the sequel to this year’s hit movie Race .

It has almost become a norm to make the sequel if a movie ends up pulling crowds to the marquee. We’ve seen such sequels being made in Dhoom 2 , Sarkar Raj , Krrish and there are some in the making, like Raaz – The Mystery Continues , ‘Phoonk 2’ and possibly ‘Drona 2’ as well.
Producer Ramesh Taurani of TIPS had announced his tentative plan to make the sequel to ‘Race’ early this year. But the project was in infancy stage and the only thing that was finalized at that point was Abbas-Mastan as its director.

Saif is presently busy working on his home production with Imtiaz Ali . After that, he will shoot for Karan Johar’s production to be directed by Rensil D’Silva. The movie has Kareena Kapoor opposite Saif.
