Not Ranveer Singh But First Poster Of Ram Leela Featured Ranbir Kapoor, Reveals Writer
Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s blockbuster Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram Leela clocked 10 years on November 15, and even after a decade, the film remains one of the most iconic trendsetters in Bollywood. The film not just gave the audience the sizzling jodi of Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone on screen, but in real lives too, the duo found their happily ever after in each other.
While it is a known fact now that Deepika was not the original choice for Ram Leela, and instead, it was Kareena Kapoor Khan who was chosen by Bhansali as the female lead, not many know that before Ranveer, Ranbir Kapoor was the ace filmmaker’s first choice for the character of Ram.
In fact, the filmmaker was so keen on casting Ranbir in the film that he had even shot the film’s poster with him in which the actor was seen sporting the look of Ram.
Garima, who was one of the writers of Ram Leela, recently revealed that when Bhansali first narrated the concept of the film to the team, they presented them with two posters, one of which featured Ranbir as Ram.
“The first poster that we saw was actually Ranbir Kapoor on a bike in the avatar of Ram which he must have clicked many years ago when he was shooting a film with him,” she shared.
“The heroine on the poster was Sonam Kapoor which could have been only a reference picture,” she added.
Garima further stated that when Ranveer was later brought on board, Kareena was the obvious choice opposite him, but that idea fell apart and eventually, Deepika bagged the role.
As Ram Leela clocked a decade on November 15, Ranveer took to his Instagram handle to share a slew of BTS photos from the sets of the magnum opus.
“10 years of RamLeela – the one that changed our lives forever … in more ways than one!” he captioned the post.
In the photos, he can be seen posing with Deepika, Bhansali, and also Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who performed a special song in the film.

Satish Shah, who tickled everyone with his comic timing, is no more; he died of kidney failure

New Delhi, Oct 25: Actor Satish Shah, known for his roles in comedy films, has passed away. The news of his death has sent shockwaves among fans. Indian producer Ashoke Pandit confirmed the actor’s death. He shared an emotional post on social media informing about the actor’s demise.
Indian producer Ashoke Pandit posted a photo of Satish Ravilal Shah on Instagram and wrote, “It is with great sadness and shock that we inform you that our dear friend and a wonderful actor, Satish Shah, passed away a few hours ago due to kidney failure. He was taken to Hinduja Hospital, where he breathed his last. This is a huge loss for our industry.” Ashoke Pandit also shared the actor’s home address on social media.
Satish Shah was born into a Gujarati family. He was a face of television and cinema that brought laughter and laughter. He distinguished himself with his unparalleled acting. Whether it was a small role on TV or a major role on screen, he played them with full dedication.
Shah began his career in 1970 with the film “Bhagwan Parshuram,” but the film failed to bring him recognition. He then appeared in Arvind Desai’s 1978 film “Ajeeb Dastaan.” His role in this film was small, followed by the 1983 film “Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron,” which proved to be a milestone in his career.
Satish Shah was last seen in the film “Humshakals,” which was released in 2014. The film starred Saif Ali Khan, Riteish Deshmukh, and Ram Kapoor in lead roles. The actor played a small supporting role in the film. The film was directed by Sajid Khan and didn’t perform well on screen.
In his personal life, Satish Shah was a very simple person. He didn’t like attending parties and preferred home-cooked food. In an interview, the actor revealed, “I am one of the few people who loves home-cooked food, and the food at my home is as good as any party food.”

Rohit Roy calls son Agasthya ‘the best looking Bose Roy’ as he turns 18

Mumbai Oct 25: Actor Rohit Bose Roy penned a lovely birthday wish for his son, Agasthya Bose Roy, as he turned 18 years old on Saturday.
The ‘Des Mein Niklla Hoga Chand’ actor took to his official Instagram handle and posted a cute father-son photo of the two making goofy expressions. Both Rohit and Agasthya were seen twinning in pink.
Calling his son the ‘best looking Bose Roy’, Rohit penned on the photo-sharing app, “Happy birthday to my one and only… To the best looking Bose Roy…May all your dreams come true and much more!!! Can’t believe you are 18 already! (sic)”
“For me, you will forever remain a chotu (red heart emoji) Love you Agu,” he added.
Actor Sanjay Kapoor also wished Agasthya in the comment section, saying, “Happy birthday”, along with a red heart emoji.
Back in August this year, Rohit came up with a special video for his better half, Manasi Joshi Roy, suggesting that couples should always “rekindle romance”.
Dropping a beautifully traditional video of his wife on social media, Rohit penned the caption, “Whenever asked for tips on lasting relationships, my one constant has been- Try and rekindle the romance every opportunity you get. Romance gets stale and practicality seeps into every relationship after a few years and it’s your job to go back and realize why you fell in love with her in the first place. Manasi irritates the f@&k out of me on a daily basis (no strike that, on an hourly basis) and I return the favour with equal fervor ! (sic).”
He further wrote, “But both of us are also very quick to get back and find that happy space coz we have no idea what the argument was about..No marriage is without its own set of unique challenges.. but if you treat everyday as a new day and every year as your first anniversary, more often than not, the happy will outweigh the ugly… These are not words from any book on relationships, this is what we have lived through and I still feel happy when I create a reel for her that makes her smile… So keep doing these little things for each other. Giving up is the easy way out, but for me, marriages are forever. They might be made in heaven but they have to survive on earth, so do your best.”

Amitabh Bachchan reflects on changing times and fading memories

Mumbai, Oct 25: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan took out a moment to reflect on how time transforms people, their habits to culture and the world.

“Lamentations from the ‘then’ keep echoing in the times of now… they shall simply remain a memory. Let them be in memory. Lamenting upon it shall be an exertive waste upon your system, attuned to ‘then’. Respect and enjoy it — they were such a delight ‘then’ (sic),” he wrote.

“The team, as I had said, was determined to play, despite our offer of forfeiting the game the next day , to not just honour him but to grieve also of his sudden departure… But the Team insisted on playing – for his memory.. And our youngest Team member wore his name on his head band at the game .. honoured and respect (sic).”
He expressed his respect for him and the team.
“My respect for him for the Team .. and my wishes,” Big B concluded.
