Is SRK's 'Ra.One' a Rs 150 crore affair?
speculations galore around its scale and budget.
Though the makers never went on the records
when it came to the budget spent on the film,
insiders from trade did peg this Shah Rukh Khan
starrer to be costliest ever with the making costs
comfortably crossing the 100 crore mark.
Now that the First Look of the film is out,
all doubts around the film being the most expensive ever have been quashed.
"The film hasn't become costly during the process of its making; it was always supposed to be expensive right from the time film's script was being written. Later when the process of storyboarding started, Shah Rukh and Anubhav realised that 'Ra. One 'would require much more than just 100 crores. As things stand today, the making itself has cost over 125 crore. This doesn't include Shah Rukh's remuneration as he is the film's producer as well and hence is a partner in all profits that come along", confirms an industry source on condition of anonymity.
Given the fact that even on a conservative side Shah Rukh's fees wouldn't be less than 25 crore, the cost of making 'Ra.One' elevates to a good 150 crore. This would be notches above Rajnikanth's 'Endhiran/Robot' (132 crores) which is the costliest India film ever made and Bollywood's 'Blue' which was pegged at 100 crore. Going by the super-success of 'Endhiran' which was a regional film and had a limited market in Hindi speaking circuits, the makers of 'Ra.One' are confident though that they would not just recover the amount but also make neat profits, courtesy the huge market that Shah Rukh commands.
Who is Ranbir obsessed with?
Ever since he stepped into Bollywood,
Ranbir Kapoor has been linked up with
almost all the actresses he has worked with.
While some of the love stories were true,
While some of the love stories were true,
many were just rumours. But there is one girl that
Ranbir is truly and totally crazy about.
Now before you let your imaginations run wild, let us reveal the truth.
The actor, who's become a mama after sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahni delivered a baby girl recently, just can't get enough of his niece.
We hear that the actor is completely obsessed with the little girl - Samara - and spends all of his free time playing with her. Riddhima had come to her parents' house in Mumbai for the delivery and the timing couldn't have been better for Ranbir. The actor is done with the Delhi schedule of his film Rockstar with Imtiaz Ali and therefore can afford to be at home in Mumbai to be with his little angel.
