Arjun Kapoor shifts base to Delhi

Arjun Kapoor who is currently gearing up for his soon to be released Aurangzeb will be shifting base to Gurgaon, Delhi. The reason behind this is that the makers of Arjun's film Aurangzeb that deals with the real estate business in Gurgaon, felt that this move would help emphasize and underline the setting of the film.

Following this, Arjun will live the life of a local from Gurgaon, with the usual watching films and clubbing while also engaging and interacting with local people. According to the producers, this is a unique way to promote upcoming film as it is based in Gurgaon. Usually films are set in cities and for first time this belongs to a suburban town.

In the past, we have seen Imran Khan shift to Delhi for a month to promote Delhi Belly, while Sonam Kapoor had shifted to Delhi for 4 months as she was shooting all her films back to back in Delhi.

School kids ask Kareena to stop smoking on-screen

In the last few months, there has been a lot of furore caused over depiction of smoking scenes in films. Now students from various schools of Delhi have written postcards / letters to Kareena Kapoor asking her to refrain from smoking on-screen. It's common knowledge that Kareena's latest release Heroine has the actress puffing away to glory in quite a few scenes.


The school students wrote to the actress as a part of HRIDAY's (Health Related Information Dissemination Amongst Youth) ongoing campaign against depiction of tobacco use in films. Actors are a role-model for young school and college going kids and hence showing actors light up a cigarette on screen doesn't set a good example.


HRIDAY had also written to Heroine director Madhur Bhandarkar urging him to abide by the notification and gave reference of movies who have already complied with it. While precious little can be done now considering Heroine has already released, it remains to be seen if Kareena takes this request of her young fans seriously and refrains from smoking on-screen in her forthcoming films.
