Mugdha Godse gets drunk in Jail

After the huge success of Fashion, it seems the model turned actor Mugdha Godse is smitten by Madhur Bhandarkar’s realistic school of film making. Recently Mugdha got drunk so that the act looks real.

Mugdha who will be seen in Jail opposite Neil Nitin Mukesh, guzzled down a champagne bottle during a song sequence. There was a song in Jail where Neil offers champagne to Mugdha. She insisted that actual champagne be poured into the glass. Madhur wanted to get the scene right and went for several retakes. At the end of the day Mugdha ended up consuming enough champagne to make her pleasantly tipsy.

With Mugdha’s eccentricities to get her act right; a bemused unit had a reason to giggle at tipsy actress who was literally in high spirits all for the sake of shoot.

Madhur Bhandarkar signs Mugdha Godse for Jail

Mugdha Godse has been signed by Madhur Bhandarkar to play the main female lead in Jail. And Mugdha is ecstatic to be a part of Jail and has started preparing for the role.

Accordng to Madhur Bhandarkar who would be starting the film's shoot in February, "Yes, Mugha Godse has been signed for Jail. She really impressed me in Fashion and it was only right that I bring her in as a female lead in my next film. She is paired opposite Neil Nitin Mukesh."

Mugha has a 3 film deal with Percept Picture Company and Jail would kick start her engagement with the production house. Incidentally, the film is a co-production of Percept Picture Company and Bhandarkar Entertainment.

Mugdha was noticed for her glamour quotient as well as acting potential in Fashion. About her role in Jail, Bhandarkar says, "She would be having a semi-glam look in the film. That's all I can say for now because anything more would only end up revealing the plot. At the moment, it would just suffice to say that Mugdha is not there in the film just for glamour value but she is also critical to the film's plot."

For Mugdha, it's a great start for things to follow because she has been paired with one of the most promising newcomers around, Neil Nitin Mukesh.

Neil Nitin Mukesh to compose the theme song of Freeze

It was earlier reported that Neil Nitin Mukesh would be making his singing debut in director Jehangir Surti’s Freeze. Now it seems that the actor will not just sing but also compose the song he’s set to croon.

The actor, who stole everyone’s heart with his performance in Johnny Gaddaar last year, would be reviving some old tunes that he has composed along with some help from music director Pritam.

The song is said to be the film’s theme song.

Neil Nitin Mukesh does his first Ad for Sparks

Neil Nitin Mukesh is going places. Apart from the handpicked films that he is doing he's also done his first ad.

"It's for a sports brand called Sparks . And boy, did the sparks fly during the shoot! We shot almost non-stop for three days. At the end of it, I was completely exhausted. Since it was an ad for sports shoes, we wanted to make it as outdoor and sporty as possible. So we shot with me doing the most serious hi-jinks possible. To be sure it was my first brush with big-time stunts. And I enjoyed myself."

There was just one hitch. "Those three days were really taxing on my energy. So at the end of each day the last thing I wanted to hear was my trainer telling me to do my cardio exercises. I begged and pleaded to be let off. But there was no respite. I think I must've lost quite a bit of weight during that ad."

Bipasha Basu to follow Dimple Kapadia

Hot bollywood damsel Bipasha Basu is going to follow the Dimple Kapadia way. The actress is believed to have given the go ahead to star in a film opposite a much younger Neil Nitin Mukesh for a forthcoming film, quite like what Dimple did in Dil Chahta Hai with Akshaye Khanna.

Bipasha is likely to play the older love interest of Neil Nitin Mukesh in a film by newcomer Jehangir Surti. The actress feels it is too soon to talk about the film and her role in it, but it hasn't stopped Neil from excitedly admitting that he is cast in the film opposite Bipasha and is extremely happy about the fact.

The actor feels that their characters in the film will justify their presence. Incidentally, Bipasha was initially not too keen to act in the film. But it seems that boyfriend John Abraham, who is a friend of the director and had read the script, managed to persuade her to do so.

Meanhwile, Neil, who made a wonderful debut with Johnny Gaddar, is again playing a character with a lot of shades in Sudhir Mishra's Tere Kya Hoga Johnny.
