Sonakshi Sinha’s uneasiness during seductive scenes!

Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha tells she feels uncomfortable while shooting scenes which require her to seduce her co-stars.

Sonakshi, along with co-actors Sidharth Malhotra and Akshaye Khanna, appeared on the special show "Interrogation with Karan Johar" to endorse their upcoming movie "Ittefaq".

Questioned whether she loved seducing Sidharth in the movie, Sonakshi revealed, "Every actor has that (one) thing which they are not very good at or they are uncomfortable doing. Sometimes it is the comedy, sometimes it's emotional scenes, sometimes it's seduction. It was really very uncomfortable. See, I am a very good actor, that's why it didn't show, but I was very uncomfortable."

Sonakshi revealed this discomfort was not just with Sidharth but "in general in front of cameras".

Sonakshi further revealed that she had a crush on actor Hrithik Roshan.

"He (Hrithik) was my first crush in school and when his film released, I went ballistic. He is the only actor whose posters I have had in my room. I used to send a boy from my house to his -- we stay five minutes from each other -- everyday with a different poster. I used to say, 'Get me his autograph'. He is the only actor I have ever done that for," she said.

"Ittefaq" is slated to release on Friday. 

It helps in reintroducing youngsters to great cinema, tells SRK on movie remakes!

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who is the producer of the Ittefaq revealed that the original film is his mother's favourite movie. He even told that remakes of such movies help the youngsters to know about great cinema.

At the press conference, SRK told, "Somewhere down the line, (it is) just to reintroduce great cinema that perhaps passes the youngsters by. So 'Ittefaq' is another move in that line. Hopefully, youngsters will like it."

He even went on to say how he liked the story. Shah Rukh Khan added, "When I was growing up, it was my mother's favourite film. Rajesh Khanna and Nanda ji both were good. I found the story interesting. It is exciting for these two boys (Abhay and Kapil Chopra) to remake a classic."

Shah Rukh Khan also specified how Yash Chopra, the director of original Ittefaq revealed him how he made Ittefaq. Khan revealed, "Before Yash ji passed away, he told how he made Ittefaq. He said he was making some film and there was a break and they decided to see a play. Then overnight they decided to make this movie for BR Films. It is based on a play and I found it interesting."

The new Ittefaq is the director by Abhay Chopra and stars Sidharth Malhotra, Sonakshi Sinha, and Akshaye Khanna in lead roles.

Ittefaq is slated to release on November 3.

Sidharth is dedicated to fitness, that’s always motivating, says Sonakshi Sinha!

Gorgeous Sonakshi Sinha is set to star opposite Sidharth Malhotra for the first time in Ittefaq. The film which is being directed by Abhay Chopra is the remake of 1969 Yash Chopra movie of the same name which then starred Rajesh Khanna and Nanda. The movie was known for its suspenseful ending and also for the fact that it did not have any songs. 

When Sonakshi was questioned in an interview with a famous tabloid about working on Ittefaq, she disclosed, "I really do not like horror films, or anything gruesome for that matter. But murder mysteries are different, and it always depends on how the director treats the film. I enjoy thrillers." She also stated that that the 2014 David Fincher hit, Gone Girl starring Ben Affleck, Rosamund Pike and Neil Patrick Harris is one of her favourite movies. 

On working with Sidharth Malhotra, Sonakshi said, "He likes to discuss every scene with the director, take everyone’s inputs and bring in his contribution. Also, he is dedicated to fitness, and that’s always motivating."

Sonakshi turns a year older today and when questioned about her birthday plans, she said the daily, "I never usually make any birthday plan. I’ve got my friends on a short and fun trip to Goa. They have always stuck by me through thick and thin. I want the day to be very chilled out without much of a fuss. And that’s how I like it."

She added, "Every year, I’ve just had simple get-togethers or dinner plans with my family and closest friends."

I have not seen the old 'Ittefaq' but I'm looking at 'Ittefaq' as new film, says Sonakshi Sinha!

The gorgeous actress Sonakshi Sinha, who has been roped in for a remake of the 1969 suspense thriller "Ittefaq", tells she is looking at it as a fresh movie.

"I have not seen the old 'Ittefaq'. So for me, I am doing a new film. And I am sure a lot of people from our generation have not seen the original 'Ittefaq' either. The way film is rewritten and adapted to fit in today's scenario and time, makes it a fresh film. I am looking at it as a new film," Sonakshi told.

The 1969 classic was directed by late filmmaker Yash Chopra and starred Rajesh Khanna, Nanda and Madan Puri in pivotal roles.

Sonakshi, who is selecting strong women-oriented roles, is stepping into the role Nanda played.

"I would like people to know me as a versatile actor who can perform all kinds of roles," told Sonkashi, who is paired with Sidharth Malhotra in "Ittefaq".

The movie is being helmed by Abhay Chopra, grandson of the late B.R. Chopra who had produced the original movie.

"Noor" is scheduled for a worldwide release on April 21.

Sidharth Malhotra spills the beans about the Ittefaq remake!

Bollywood’s new reel pair Sidharth Malhotra and Sonakshi Sinha will be seen in the lead roles for the remake of the hit 1969 murder mystery Ittefaq. 

Captivatingly, the story won’t be the same any longer. Sidharth, in a straight conversation with a famous tabloid, clarified, “It’s not exactly the same. The premise will be different although the idea is the same. It is still about one night but we have modified the script. Otherwise, everyone knows what it’s all about and there would be no fun. All the characters here are motivated differently.”

Sidharth also disclosed the running time of the movie. “It will be a very short, quick film. We want to make it in a very thrilling manner- in two hours or maybe less than that if we can. That’s our plan," posted the actor.

Ittefaq is scheduled for a 2017 release. The movie is a remake of Yash Chopra directorial, the 1969 movie Ittefaq, which starred Rajesh Khanna and Nanda. As per info, the Yash Chopra film in itself was a remake of the British movie, Signpost To Murder (1964)! Red Chillies Entertainment, Dharma Productions, and BR Films are coming together to produce the (remake) movie.
