After garnering appreciation for All The Best, Ajay Devgn and Bipasha Basu will yet again share screen space. And this time it is Priyadarshan, who is all set to go on the floors with his next venture Ram Leela.

“Ram Leela is based on epic Ramayana with new dimensions added by director Priyadarshan,” confirms the singer Ajay Jhingran of Billu, Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi and Page 3 fame.

Jhingran has also sung two songs in the film whose music has been composed by Pritam Chakraborty. Irshad Kamil has penned the lyrics for the film.

Well, Ajay and Bips seem to have taken the lead as Rama and Sita. Wonder, who will step into the shoes of other characters. And what will be Priyadarshan’s approach to this modern Ram Leela.

And what Ajay Devgn wants, he gets, Mangat renames Priyan project and officially calls it that

Producer Kumar Mangat Pathak and Ajay Devgn had a title clash for their next, a Priyan film. On Friday night, after a heated discussion between the two, the film was finally christened Garam Hawa.
'Garam Hawa' was apparently Paresh Rawal's suggestion. Paresh says, "Amongst all the titles, Garam Hawa had the strongest impact."

Title tattle: Ajay Devgn, Paresh Rawal, Kumar Mangat and Akshaye Khanna

Action time
Priyadarshan says, "Initially, I was a bit sceptical about calling it Garam Hawa. My film has lots of violence and action, and the title needed to carry a strong punch. None but GH suited it best!" Akshaye Khanna echoes the thought.

Kumar Mangat informs us that there were five titles in contention. "We had selected Ardh Satya, Nishaad, Man Maani, Garam Hawa and Isshaq. The film is an action-thriller with tongue-in-cheek humor. I felt people might connect to MS Sathyu's Garam Hawa and remember that film. I liked Man Maani and Isshaq as the film revolves around a love story upon which honour killing and other plots unfold."

Ajay Devgn argues, "How many of this generation would know about MS Sathyu's Garam Hawa and relate to it? Also the film is not a love story but around the honor killing in a village and the two guys, an army and CBI officer who come to investigate it, so Isshaq would give it a different connotation. It's an action-thriller.

Make an impact
'Man Maani' sounds too frivolous and would give the impression of being another emotional comedy. I thought with the right kind of action and visuals, Akshaye and I with guns would make a tremendous impact with the title of Garam Hawa. In fact, we could even have a song in the film based around it."
Akshaye, Paresh and Priyan silently supported Ajay until Mangat reluctantly conceded defeat.

When Ajay Devgn signed Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge? He didn't realise that he would become an Atithi (guest) in his own home at Juhu.

Constant traveller
Says an exhausted Ajay who has been travelling since last year December, "I have been living out of a suitcase. I have travelled to Karjat (outskirts of Mumbai) Delhi, Madurai, Pollachi, Karaikudi and back."

The actor has been simultaneously shooting for Ekta Kapoor's gangster film, Once Upon A Time in Mumbai, Priyan's Garam Hawa in the South and also has been promoting his next release Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge? He laughs, "In ATKJ, the character I play is of a guy who gets irritated when an unwanted guest lands up at his home. But right now, I am feeling like a guest in my own home. All this hectic travelling is playing havoc with my gym schedule."

For the last few months now, the fitness-conscious actor has been carting his gym along to every shoot. He works out in the make-up shift. As they have been shooting in smaller cities, he doesn't have access to a good gym at every location. His fitness equipment is loaded onto a truck and it travels to wherever he shoots. In Karaikudi, he constructed a gym for the entire period of his stay."

After completing Garam Hawa, Devgn leaves for Delhi. In March, he's off to the US and UK to promote a series of shows for his next film Rajneeti. "Then, I start shooting for Golmaal 3 in April so it's back to Goa again," sighs the busy actor.

Ajay nimmt auf den meisten Dreharbeiten sein eigenes Fitnessstudio mit. Wird ihm per Laster nachgefahren, wo er auch immer es hin haben will.

Ausserdem scheint es jetzt wohl entgültig so zu sein, dass der Film mit Pryan nicht mehr Nishaad heisst sondern Garam Hawa.

Im März/April geht eer in die USA und nach England um Rajneeti zu promoten....mit Shows

Ajay Devgn has been shooting for Milan Luthria's Once Upon A Time In Mumbai and the outdoor sets were very close to his farmhouse in Karjat. The actor bonded so well with the unit that every second day, he'd invite them all over for a party and the crew ended up partying hard while working harder. In fact, once the schedule in Karjat was over, on the last day, Ajay threw a rocking bash at the farmhouse.

(Sampurn Wire): Think about comedy flicks and the first name that comes to your mind is Ajay Devgn. The talented actor who started his career with the super hit ‘Phool Aur Kaante’ was best known for his action movies for a long time. But, action is certainly not what he seems to be doing these days.

The two-time National Award winner has now become the King of comedy, with his recent hat trick of ‘Golmaal’, ‘Golmaal Returns’ and ‘All The Best’. The smashing success of these movies has resulted in theactor being flooded with offers of comic roles.

What’s more! The actor’s forthcoming release ‘Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?’ co starring Paresh Rawal and Konkona Sen Sharma is also a laugh riot. The film, produced by Amita Pathak and Warner Bros (India), will make it to theatres across the world on March 5. The promos of the family entertainer have already got the audiences eager to watch the film.

Ashwni Dhir, the director of Atithi….says, “Ajay is a first-rate actor. You can give him just about anything to do; whether it is action, comedy or drama. He is a natural in front of the camera.”

Speaking about his latest comedy Atithi….Ajay says, “Our generation didn’t have the privilege of working with masters like Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Basu Chatterjee and even Gulzar saab, who made some really amazing social films with a comic twist. I agreed to Atithi… almost minutes after I heard the first draft of the script, because to me, this film fit into that genre of Hrishida’s films. Films like ‘Chupke Chupke’, ‘Bawarchi’, ‘Rajnigandha’, ‘Khubsoorat’, ‘Angoor’ and ‘Golmaal’ (Amol Palekar) made by stalwarts like Hrishida, Basuda and Gulzar saab tickled your funny bone, but they also had a soul.”

His eyes crinkle as he says, “Atithi … is from the school of film-making that made a huge impact through the ’70s and ’80s. Yet the film has a contemporary look. Believe me, every time I say I will run away from comedy, comedy chooses me. After Atithi… I’ll plunge headlong into ‘Golmaal-3’. Sometimes, I think actors don’t choose a role, a role chooses them. When you deliberately resist something, it has a way of following you.”

Ajay laughs and adds, “They say man proposes god disposes. For actors, it should be ‘an actor proposes, a filmmaker disposes’. Amitabh Bachchan was an angry young man and then did some delectable comedies. I was the action guy who went into comedy. Though I keep saying I want to get back to action flicks, I will trust my instincts and accept a good comedy if it comes my way.”

The versatile actor has a number of movies lined up for release this year including Prakash Jha’s ‘Rajneeti’, ‘Toonpur Ka Superhero’ along with wife Kajol, Milan Luthria’s ‘Once Upon A time In Mumbai’, Kumar Mangat’s ‘Garam Hawa’ and Rohit Shetty’s ‘Golmaal 3’.

Well, with Ajay wanting to shift back to action movies in the near future we surely hope he is enjoying his current status as the Bollywood’s King of Laughter.

Previously, Akshay Kumar And Ajay Devgan had developed a strong bond while doing films together but as time passed their friendship faded and they drifted far apart.

Now after their children have started going to the same school they often get to see each other and in the process they have developed previous feeling for each other.

According to sources report Akshay and Kajol shares good vibes with each other and in the process Ajay could not help standing out of their sight. Both the devoted parents bonded, a source stated, "Akshay and Kajol met during one of the events at their children's school (Akshay's son Aarav and Kajol's daughter Nysa go to the same school) and both the devoted parents bonded.”

Most of the time reserved Ajay smiled and nodded in response to the conversations between his wife Kajol and his friend Akshay according to a source report.

Well it is nice that Akshay's famous Dostana with Ajay has revived.
