Zoya Akhtar's Dil Dhadakne Do is in the news for its interesting cast of Anil Kapoor, Farhan Akhtar, Anushka Sharma, Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra. Apparently Zoya also wanted to zero in on one of the yesteryear divas Madhuri or Sridevi, to play Ranveer and Priyanka's mother. News has it that neither of them was ready to take up this mother's role. However, as per Bombay Times, this interesting role went to Shefali Shah, who was last seen in Nagesk Kukunoor's Lakshmi.

There was going to be a mighty clash of the titans when Peekay and Bombay Velvet makers caught hold of the same release date - Christmas 2014 - for their movies. An upset Anurag Kashyap had openly made his displeasure known as he clarified that he had locked the date for his Bombay Velvet, first.

When Ranbir Kapoor teamed up with his parents for Abhinav Kashyap's Besharam, there were big expectations from the film. However, the film tanked at the box office much to the embarrassment of the Kapoors. In an interview to TOI, Rishi Kapoor talks about this experience of the family.

The team of Bombay Velvet wrapped up their movie shoot today. However, it did end on a controversial note when a media photographer was reported to have been thrashed by the film's security guards.
Apparently, the photog was trying to get a click of Ranbir Kapoor's look, which the makers have been trying hard to keep under wraps. However, on spotting this intrusion by the media, the makers had the security guards 'manhandle' the photog, as per the 'victim's' Police complaint.
