Milenge Milenge Trailer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUBxbcwTlLs&feature=related
I cannot embed it, but check it out! The movie that we've been waiting for is about to come in theaters. This is the movie that Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor broke up during, and so the film was on hold for a few years. The trailers show Kareena before her size 0 image with the straight, long hair and Shahid before his muscular, more mature look with the long hair (and then short hair again). Now my question is: how much of the film was shot before the break up? Is there a gap in the movie of a few years so the new looks are of older people? Or do they give Shahid and Kareena makeovers to make them look younger and closer to how they did when the movie started to just continue the film from where it left off? I guess we'll have to wait and watch...

RIP Mac Mohan
Mac Mohan, best known as Sambha from Sholay, passed away earlier today. We will all surely miss him.
Article:
One of the evergreen dialogues that has made and shaped Bollywood as to what it is today happens to be 'Arre O Sambha...Kitne aadmi the'... from the evergreen cult film Sholay. The irony of life is that while this dialogue happens to be immortal, the mortal 'Sambha' in question, passed away yesterday, as he lost his battle to the dreaded cancer.
Mohan and he remained famous for his most stylish beard even then. Having started his 'Bollywood ka safar' with the film Haqeeqat in the year 1964, Mac Mohan acted in over 190 films over a period of a whopping 46 years.
Some of the most prominent films in which he acted include Don, Sholay, Karz, Satte Pe Satta, Zanjeer, Rafoo Chakkar, Shaan... to name a few. His last film was Bombay To Goa: Laughter Unlimited, and he also did a cameo after that in Luck By Chance. Very few people know the fact that, besides being one of the finest actors, Mac Mohan also happens to be the maternal uncle of Raveena Tandon.
