Farah Khan to Direct a Song For Hrithik Roshan in Kites

Farah's dheel for Duggu's Kites
After choreographing exclusively post-OSO for SRK, Farah Khan adds Hrithik to the list

Show me the moves, baby! Hrithik Roshan
Farah Khan will be working on her birthday (January 9) — and making Hrithik Roshan dance too on his (January 10).

After Om Shanti Om, the fiery Farah had decided to stick to direction and give up choreography for good. Exceptions were only to be made for friends like SRK and Karan Johar.

Fondness calls
But the queen of Bollywood jhatkas will make Hrithik groove for his home production, Kites being directed by Anurag Basu. A source from the film industry reveals, "When Hrithik approached her she couldn't refuse. Farah's very fond of him, as she had choreographed all his songs in his debut film, Kaho Na Pyaar Hai. Also, she shares a good association with his dad, which is why she did not even discuss money before saying yes. After Hrithik spoke to Farah, Papa Roshan also called her and requested her to do the song." The choreographer and Roshan Jr last came together for Dil Na Diya song in Krissh.

Part of narrative
The song composed by Rajesh Roshan will be filmed on Hrithik and Barbara. It is a soft sensuously romantic song, and is part of the narrative. The song is played in the background, so there is no lip sync involved. Though Anurag Basu, the director of Kites, has choreographed a couple of songs in Kites, this time it was Hrithik, his dad's and Anutag's unanimous decision that Farah direct the song as it requires stylised choreography."

Rakesh Roshan confirms, "Yes, she is choreographing a song in Kites. She has always choreographed at least one song in all of Duggu's films for our productions." He adds that she has agreed to choreograph this song as, "We have a special relationship. Farah and we share a warm bond and have mutual respect for each other."

Neetu Singh to Make a Comeback With Saif Ali Khan’s Untitled Production, Directed by Imtiaz Ali

Contrary to earlier reports, Neetu Kapoor’s comeback vehicle will be Saif Ali Khan’s untitled production directed by Imtiaz Ali

That Neetu Kapoor is all set to scorch the screen once again with husband Rishi Kapoor is a known fact. But what remains a closely guarded secret (till now) is that Neetu will be first seen in Imtiaz Ali’s untitled film for Saif Ali Khan’s production. The film has Saif and Deepika Padukone playing the lead roles.

Earlier it was reported that Neetu Kapoor’s comeback vehicle would be the feel-good comedy, Do Dooni Char, directed by debutante Habib Faisal. Though the couple is still doing the film, the shooting is yet to begin. Meanwhile, Neetu’s film for Imitiaz has already started rolling and will be released first. This will be Neetu’s comeback film after a hiatus of more than 25 years. She was last seen in Teesri Aankh in 1982 and retired from films thereafter post her marriage to the eternal lover boy of the silver screen Rishi Kapoor.

A source close to the production house said, “Neetu Kapoor is indeed acting in Imtiaz Ali’s film for Saif Ali Khan’s production. She has a small but significant character in the film.”

However Neetu Kapoor was not very keen to divulge any details about the film or her role. Imitiaz’s film is a love story spread over two decades. One part of the love story will revolve around Rishi and Neetu and the other will have Saif and Deepika. Incidentally, Deepika is dating the couple’s son Ranbir Kapoor in real life.
