The Filmistan Connection

The two-month standoff between Bollywood film producers and India’s multiplex theaters will probably end in the next week. Does that mean we’ll see Johnny Boy on the screen soon, our long wait for “New York” might come to an end now…what could be better! There were rumors for the millionth time that Katrina and Salman [...]

We don’t remember it too often, to look for pictures of behind the scenes of a movie. It’s strange really, why we don’t because when we see them we get the Anil Kapoor Syndrome.
