... Your looks in London Dreams have forced Ajay Devgan to pay special attention to his. What yaar! How can you’ll even say such things? See, neither do I look like an angel nor does he look like a devil. He looks cool and I think I look okay. In the film, he has spiked hair, wears earrings, leather jackets, cool shoes and glares. I’m a Punjabi desi boy who goes to London. So, I am in kurtas and jeans. So, Ajay looks quite handsome in the film. ...
übersetzt von Diwali: Ein Ausschnitt aus einem Salman-Interview mit einem köstlichen Kommentar über Ajays und seinen Look in London Dreams:
Salman weist Gerüchte, dass Ajay wegen Salmans Look in LD extra Anstrengungen wegen seines eigenen Looks unternommen hätte, als unsinnig zurück, da sie beide ganz unterschiedliche Typen spielen: "Weder sehe ich aus wie ein Engel noch er wie ein Teufel. Er sieht cool aus, und ich sehe okay aus, denke ich."
Ajay Devgan promotes 'Golmaal Returns' on Amul Star Voice of India Posted on Donnerstag, 30. Oktober 2008 (EST)
Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty appeared on a Friendship special episode of Amul Star Voice of India mega music league to promote their comedy film 'Golmaal Returns' which released in theatres on Wednesday, October 29.
October 30, 2008, (Sawf News) - Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty appeared on a Friendship special episode of Amul Star Voice of India mega music league to promote their comedy film Golmaal Returns which released in theatres on Wednesday, October 29.
Devgan who toplines the film and Shetty who directs it spoke about their childhood friendship has since transformed into a more mature and professional relationship.
Shaan opened the Friendship episode with Bollywood's most famous trademark friendship song- Yeh Dosti hum nahin todenge from the blockbuster Sholay while Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty made their Jai-Veeru ishtyle entry with the song.
Shaan announced that this Friday's elimination will be decided by Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty. Ajay threw it open to the participants to decide who will go. He asked that since it is friendship special, would they sacrifice their stand in the show for their friend?
When asked about his best friend, Malhar said that his guitar is his best friend. He played a few notes on his guitar on stage and sang Omkar, originally picturized on Ajay Devgan. Ajay was really impressed with Mallar's performance. Ritisha and saptaparna sang Pal. When asked about their friendship, the duo said they would leave the show to ensure that the other one stayed and made it to the top. Ritisha quizzed Ajay about his friendship with Kajol… Ajay didn't see that coming from her though… what did he answer?
After Ritisha and Saptaparna, the band of boys-Ravi, Vipul and Mallar took the stage by storm as they entertained the audience with the peppy Dil Chahta Hai. The boys very honestly told Ajay and Rohit that they would not sacrifice their stand for anyone on the show. In this age of hypocrisy it came as quite a refreshing answer from them.
Zakir made everyone choke with his rendition of Chahunga main tuzhe. He dedicated his song to his friend Avinash for helping and supporting him emotionally. Ajay and Rohit were spellbound after his performance. Rohit said that Zakir's performance was so honest that he had no right to comment on his singing while seated in the judges' chair. Monty said that he went into a spiritual zone when he heard Zakir sing.
After Zakir, Ravi and Vipul came back with yet another blockbuster friendship song Qurbani.
As decided, Ajay Devgan and Rohit Shetty announced the elimination which left everybody in panic… Will Shaan intervene? Will judges have a say in their decision?
The episode will air on Friday, October 31 at 10 pm on Star Plus.
It is a general rule in Bollywood that when a star of any film holds a trial show then the only invitees are his family members and closest pals or business associates. But trust Ajay Devgan to be different.
A very close pal of Ajay’s told us, “For Raju (Devgan’s pet name) the unit of Golmaal Returns was like a family. It was practically the same unit he worked with during Golmaal (2006). There was a close bond formed amongst all the actors. So naturally when Ajay landed back from a month and a half long shooting stint in London he held a special trial show of Golmaal Returns which included the entire team of the film.”
“It was Ajay’s idea to hold the show and assembling all his co-stars families for the show. He does not like to bind himself to set rules so it never crossed his mind that trial shows are a very private affair. Amongst other cast members, one saw Tusshar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade coming in with their respective families. It was a fun filled atmosphere as they were enjoying the comic caper together.
They were also heard discussing the possibility of Golmaal 3 and getting back together for more fun.” the pal concluded. -(SAMPURN)
Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision hosted a special show for kids from an orphanage in Andheri of their film 'Golmaal Returns'.
The kids were not only treated to a 3 hour laughter marathon, but were also in for a special surprise when Tusshar Kapoor who stars in the film dropped in during the interval to meet the kids!
Tusshar arrived at the theatre during the interval & interacted with the kids who were very excited to meet the actor, especially after having laughed on the funny dialogues & scenes during the film.
Tusshar also gave in to their demands to enact a couple of his scenes in the film in his inimitable mute style!
Finally, the experience was made complete with a small Diwali gift to each child.
Commenting on the occasion, producer Dhilin Mehta from Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd said, "At Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd, we are always in the efforts of providing complete entertainment to all age groups. 'Golmaal Returns' is a fun film & we are extremely delighted to be able to spread some smiles & cheer among kids with our film, especially during this festive time!"
Sister Brittomary from St. Catheirne's orphanage said, "It is very thoughtful of Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision to take such an initiative for underprivileged kids. The children had a wonderful time today & we give our best wishes to the company for their future endeavours."

Hey hey hey...Golmaal returns. Is that reason to rejoice? Can't say? Beyond a point only one question bothered me. What was Kareena Kapoor doing in this corny concoction? Playing a fan of the Saas-Bahu serials she's named Ekta, as a homage to the soap queen Ekta Kapoor whose brother incidentally plays Kareena's bro in Golmaal Returns.
Cute, na? The sequel to the successful Golmaal is filled with inhouse jokes, like that time when Ajay Devgan weaves the titles of his films into the dialogues. Or the hilarious takeoff by that talented Ashwini Kalsekar on Rani Mukherjee's randy tart's act from Sanjay Bhansali's Saawariya....it's a rare moment of genuine laughter in this comedy of earsplitting guffaws, all emanating from the screen rather than out of it.
Fast, furious and fatuous Golmaal Returns isn't quite that Diwali blues-chaser you expect it to be. The comic timing though skilled, is wasted by the actors in sequences that try to breathe fire into a burnt-out oven.
No wonder the comicality is half-baked and often repetitive. The jokes from the first film are extended into the second, often with far-from-funny results. Many large sections of satire just lack attractive attire.
But Tusshar Kapoor is a howl. And a whine. And a whoop. And a snivel. Since he is mute, he sharpens his ability to emote through jungle calls. He's a revelation.
The camaraderie among the cast is quite evident. The male actors bond with gusto and Shreyas Talpade who is the new recruit to the revelry joins in without skipping a beat. His comic timing is delightfully sinewy.
But what happened to Arshad Warsi? His quick entry-and-exit cops routine begins to get on the nerves after a while.
Though Tusshar and Talpade whip up a wacky humour .Most of the material about a suspicious wife and several red herrings strewn across a path that's self-consciously forged on the grounds of Hyderabad's Ramajirao Studios, is very old-fashioned in its approach to slapstick humour. Crowds hover around studio-built malls and streets trying to look casual.
They provide a rough and random backdrop to what's basically material for a sex comedy on stage.
The characters run in breathlessly, say their jokey suggestive lines, fall over each other in rituals of suggestive laughter and then fall out of the frames waiting for the next gag to beckon them. It's all supposed to be hilariously funny. But is often just a pretext for more a pantomime of parody than the real thing.
At the end, there's a threat for a third segment of Golmaal. It would all depend on how much returns Golmaal Returns manages to bring in. Going by the audience's riotous response, it seems no-brainers are eminently fashionable.
