Arjun Rampal no longer part of Don 2

Share This Post

Farhan Akhtar's film Don, which released in 2006, proved to be a turning point in Arjun Rampal's career. Post Don, Arjun bagged a series of big films such as Om Shanti Om, Rock On etc. and his character of Jasjeet in Don is still remembered by one and all.

However, there is sad news for all Arjun Rampal fans as the actor wouldn't be seen in the eagerly awaited sequel Don 2. Although the buzz is that there were some creative differences between Farhan and Arjun over his character in the sequel, no one knows the real reason as to why Arjun has decided to walk out of the project.

Confirming the same, Arjun tweeted last night, "Hey Guys, Yes it is true won't be part of Don 2. Wish the team all the success. I am sure it will be a super film."

It will now be interesting to see which actor replaces Arjun and gets the chance to play Jasjeet in Don 2.

Shahrukh Khan is one of Bollywood's biggest stars! King Khan has just finished shooting his upcoming action film Ra.One in London. Shahrukh describes the film as, "Ra.One is a superhero film. There is a good guy, there is a bad guy, there is a beautiful girl, there is a wonderful singer and a fantastic director," at a press conference with his co-star Kareena Kapoor.

To celebrate the shooting's wrap, SRK threw a party and surrounded himself with friends, cast, and crew who helped bring his production together. On the guestlist for last night's event was 2 Point 9's rising star Jernade Miah. At the private affair, Shahrukh shared a conversation with Jernade which led him to ask the singer to perform for his guests. Being the gentleman that he is, Jernade treated everyone to an impromptu performance.

"Meeting SRK was such a privilege," Jernade tells Desi Hits, "I've watched so many of his films growing up. Not many people get to give an intimate performance for such an icon."

After Jernade had hit the stage, Shahrukh was sure to go over and thank Jernade. We have been told that SRK was overheard telling the young singer "You're gonna be the next big star. I love the song you just performed." Reflecting on their conversation, Jernades tells us, "He [Shahrukh Khan] gave me some really good advice. If I can achieve half of what he has, that would be incredible."

That evening Jernade sang his song "Empty Box" which has yet to be released. The song will be featured on Jernade's upcoming mixtape Double Check which is set for release in the early autumn.

Shahrukh Khan tweeted later that evening saying, "Had a wonderful wrap party for the crew.all in high spirits &danced to my songs...I hope we can celebrate the release of the film same way."

We know that getting a compliment from Shahrukh Khan must have been quite a nice treat for Jernade. With Shahrukh introducing Akon to Bollywood, perhaps Jernade will be featured on Shahrukh's next film's soundtrack.

Check out the footage of Jernade Miah performing for Shahrukh Khan as well as a taste of his upcoming song "Empty Box." Do you agree with Shahrukh Khan, is Jernade gonna be a big star?

Check out the star's wax figure

Shah Rukh Khan has found a pride of place among the wax figures of the famous at the Madame Tussauds wax attraction at the Times Square here.

The 45-year-old star's wax figure was unveiled on August 12 amid a colourful performance by the Bollywood Axion dance troupe dancing to the soundtrack from his film 'My Name Is Khan', one of the highest-grossing Bollywood titles released in the US.

The actor already has a statue at Tussauds Los Angeles branch. His latest wax figure in New York placed in front of a replica of the Taj Mahal, is dressed in a sleek black suit and white button down shirt.

SRK is the latest addition to Madame Tussauds brightly-colored, fully-interactive 'Bollywood Zone,' which allows guests to feel as though they are on a Bollywood film set. Khan stands in a small room on the 9th floor and is the second waxwork to enter the Bollywood Zone at the Madame Tussauds in New York after Amitabh Bachchan was introduced last year.

The unveiling of SRK's wax figure coincided with the DVD release of 'My Name Is Khan', which is now available in stores for the suggested retail price of $27.98 in the US and $43.48 in Canada.

Described by US media as "A potent, energetic heart-tugger" (Los Angeles Times) and "an affecting fairy tale about the perils of goodness" (New York Times), the film relates the story of an Indian man with a unique way of looking at the world.

The protagonist Rizwan (Shah Rukh) moves to San Francisco and meets a vivacious single mother named Mandira (Kajol). They form a special bond and fall in love against all odds, but fate and tragedy conspire to tear them apart.

Just when it appears as though all hope is lost, Rizwan embarks on a remarkable journey across America to win back the love of his life.

NEW YORK: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's wax figure was today unveiled at the Madame Tussads museum in New York's Times Square.

The 45-year-old star's new wax figure was unveiled amid colourful dance performance by Bollywood Axion Dance Troupe that performed to the soundtrack from his latest film 'My Name Is Khan' with the waxwork behind them.

The actor already has a statue at Tussauds Los Angeles branch and his latest wax figure is dressed in a sleek black suit and white shirt.

The event also marked the release of the DVD for 'My Name is Khan'. The movie centres around an Indian Muslim man with Asperger's Syndrome, who falls for Mandira, a successful Hindu single mother, played by Kajol, and how their lives are impacted by 9/11.

Soon after the unveiling visitors and tourists began to get their picture clicked with him.

"More and more people are seeing Bollywood as part of the mainstream," Rosemary del Prado, director of marketing at Madame Tussauds, said.

"It represents his current style," she said, pointing out the button down vest and the blazer zipper.

Khan stands in a small room on the 9th floor and is the second waxwork to enter the Bollywood Zone at the Madame Tussauds in New York after Amitabh Bachchan was introduced last year. The London branch also has a wax statue of Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai.

Khan, who was named one of Newsweek's '50 Most Powerful People in the World' in 2008, has a fan following in the billions.

Khan and Kajol became the first Bollywood stars to ring the NASDAQ bell for Fox Searchlight Pictures, the distributors of the film.

One of the reasons for Khan's inclusion in the New York facility was due to public requests, according to del Prado. "We make these decisions based on out guest feedback," she said. "And the population around NYC are familiar with Bollywood."

In the room next to where Khan was unveiled, there is an exhibition of presidents of the United States and world leaders, which include Mahatma Gandhi, Fidel Castro, Helen Keller, Martin Luther King Jr., Yasser Arafat and Napoleon.
