Farhan Akhtar starrer Lucknow Central’s mahurat shot!

There have been a lot of conjectures about the casting of Lucknow Central. The male lead of the movie is finalised and it is none other than Farhan Akhtar.

But for the female lead, first, it was stated that Kriti Sanon will be paired opposite him and then she opted out and Saiyami Kher was roped in for the main role. Now, rumour has it, Diana Penty has been finalised for the role.

Lucknow Central also stars Gippy Grewal, Ronit Roy and Rajesh Sharma in key roles.

Diana Penty to star in Farhan starrer Lucknow Central instead of Kriti and Saiyami?

Seems like the casting problem for the famous lady of Nikkhil Advani's Lucknow Central continues. Directed by debutant Ranjit Tiwari, the film stars Farhan Akhtar.

Firstly, Kriti Sanon was considered for the role but she mentioned date issues. Then Saiyami Kher was to take up the role of an NGO worker.

At present, Diana Penty is the hottest choice for the role, according to a famous tabloid.

 "After the makers roped in Saiyami, they felt that she isn’t best suited for the role either. Hence, they replaced her with Diana Penty," a source disclosed to the tabloid. 

This will be the first time Farhan and Diana will be seen in a film together.

Approving the same, lead actor Farhan disclosed, “I know that there were some date issues with Kriti because the film which she was doing has got postponed so the dates couldn’t work out. But I don’t know who has been confirmed yet so I don’t want to jump the gun and make a comment. Nikhil Advani should be asked about it as he is the producer.”

Remarkably, Mirzya actress Saiyami Kher has now been roped in to play the female lead.

Kriti will be next seen in Raabta opposite Sushant Singh Rajput. Directed by Dinesh Vijan, the movie will hit the cinemas on June 9. 

Link-Up stories are half the time created, tells Harshvardhan Kapoor!

Anil Kapoor's son Harshvardhan Kapoor has made his Bollywood debut with Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's musical drama Mirzya. Saiyami Kher is costar of Harshvardhan Kapoor in film Mirzya.

While usually link-up stories start floating as soon as a film's promotions start, surprisingly there have not been any such rumors about these two young actors. When requested to comment on it, Kapoor said, ''there are no link-up reports firstly because we don't go out much and we do our own thing, secondly because linkup stories are half the time created, which we are not going to do and then because we are not together.''

Theater artist Saiyami Kher auditioned for six months to select as Mirzya’s lady!

Newcomer Saiyami Kher is all set to mark her big Bollywood debut with Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Mirzya, which releases this weekend but, she didn't always want to be an actress.

When the curly-haired beauty was asked if she always wanted to be an actress, she told, ''My life revolves around sports. I used to play competitive badminton and cricket so acting wasn't my career of choice since childhood but when I came to Mumbai and I was studying in Xavier's that's where I think the bug bit me because I started doing a lot of theater workshops.''

Revealing how she bagged the lead role in Mirzya, she said us, ''It was a very long journey. I auditioned for almost six months. After almost 12 screen tests, when sir (Mehra) was fully sure, he signed me.''

Kher will be seen romancing Harshvardhan Kapoor in Mirzya, which is inspired by the Punjabi folklore of Mirza Sahiban.

Harshvardhan Kapoor and Saiyami Kher show their bonding over horses!

After enthralling music lovers with their exciting title track and romantic number Chakora, the makers of Mirzya have now released the video of the third song from the film's album, titled aave re hitchki and we are sure that like the previous two tracks, this one too will garner a lot of appreciation from the viewers.

The song features the film's lead pair, Harshvardhan Kapoor and Saiyami Kher and it shows them bonding over horses. Harshvardhan, who is playing a stable boy, is seen teaching his ladylove how to ride a horse and the chemistry between the twosomes, whilst they train together, is unquestionable.

With his intense look and charismatic on-screen presence, Harshvardhan is unquestionably a talent to watch out for. His rugged and raw look is already making many a woman go weak in their knees and this song only makes him look all the more desirable. Now ladies, don't we all want a guy, who would take care of us the way he looks after his on-screen love in the song?

Saiyami draws attention with her unusual looks and energetic personality. She is charming on-screen and wows with her million dollar smile. The song is a ballad, which beautifully expresses a lover's helplessness as he is far away from his beloved and his longing and adoration for her. With its soul stirring music and lyrics, this song will definitely strike a chord with hardcore romantics.

Veteran lyricist Gulzar has once more weaved magic with his words and Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy have infused them with their soulful music. Mame Khan and Shankar Mahadevan have lent their voices to the song.

Inspired by the Punjabi folklore of Mirza Sahiban, the movie has been directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and is slated to release on October 7.

Mirzya's stunning new trailer introduces Harshvardhan Kapoor and Saiyami Kher!

We had informed that Anil Kapoor's son Harshvardhan Kapoor will be making his debut as an actor with Mirzya and the trailer of the movie was finally revealed last night at the IIFA event in Madrid.

Inspired by the folk story of 'the legend of Mirza–Sahiban, 'Mirzya' is an epic action-romance set in contemporary times as well as in the past. The trailer featuring Harshvardhan and Saiyami Kher hints at loads of drama, romance and action-packed sequences. But, the trailer does not offer a proper glimpse into the narrative as the constant shifting between a different era and the present, made us think that the movie might be a reincarnation drama. The cinematography and the camera work is awesome and the film looks visually delightful.

Harshvardhan looks dashing with his long hair and beard while Saiyami is easy on the eyes. Directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, Mirzya is slated to release on October 7.

Remarkably, Mirziya marks Mehra's first ever love story as in the past, he has mostly made dramatic movies like Rang De Basanti, Delhi 6 and Bhaag Milkha Bhaag.
