LADY ANTEBELLUM'S UPCOMING FIFTH STUDIO ALBUM 747 TOUCHES DOWN ON SEPT. 30

Trio Unveils 747 Album Cover, Track Listing and Additional Details for New Album

Seven-time GRAMMY winning trio Lady Antebellum announced today that their fifth studio album 747 will land in stores on Sept. 30. The album’s sultry lead single “Bartender” is already soaring up the country charts to become one of their fastest rising singles.  Nathan Chapman co-produced the 11-song disc with Lady A for the Capitol Records Nashville release.
“We unanimously knew that our album title had to be 747,” said Lady A’s Hillary Scott. “The track itself has this pushing, driving spirit about it that sums up our attitude right now.  We are pushing ourselves as a band and as songwriters…taking ourselves out of our comfort zone and not taking ourselves too seriously.   There's an urgency and an energy to it that we've never released before."
“We are so ready to get this music out,” continued Charles Kelley. “To get the reaction we’ve gotten from ‘Bartender’ has only made us more fired up about the rest of these songs!”
“We had the opportunity to write with some new songwriters and really dig for outside songs that were songs we wish we’d written,” added Dave Haywood. “As we took them into the studio, we changed our approach and challenged ourselves to try some new things that were outside of what we’d done before."

When Natwarlal met his Guru!

While Raja Natwarlal has all the works of an Emraan Hashmi masala entertainer— great songs, a sizzling co-star in Humaima Malik and a film plot riddled with twists and turns, what makes it unique is the addition of a mentor-protégé relationship that’s pivotal to the film!  

Director Kunal Deshmukh says,“ Very few people who love Hashmi can accept someone who can teach their hero, so we needed someone who commanded that kind of respect and universal acceptability and we got lucky with Paresh Sir.”
Paresh Rawal is the mentor that Emraan Hashmi is looking for in Raja Natwarlal- the grand con artist who takes Emraan under his wings as he takes on a business tycoon to avenge the death of a loved one.
Not many people know that Paresh who is obsessed with the world of con and has great interest in the subject, never wanted to do a con film! “ Paresh Sir told me, he wanted to say yes only to the script that could convince him completely. Fortunately for us, Raja Natwarlal was that film for him.”
Incidentally, Emraan and Paresh hit it off instantly on the sets. On his chemistry with Paresh, Emraan says, “He is one of the best actors I have worked with. He is extremely spontaneous and very generous as a co-star.Together we ended up improvising a lot in our scenes because of our camaraderie.”
Paresh Rawal adds, “Kunal came to me with a script that I couldn’t refuse. I love the world of cons and am glad to have worked in Raja Natwarlal. It’s one of the performances closest to my heart. Emraan and I have some memorable scenes together. I hope the audiences love our outing together.” While narrating one of the anecdotes, Kunal revealed, Paresh would tell him to let Emraan say the lines meant for him in a particular scene. “He was always conscious that it has to be a Emraan Hashmi film end of the day where as Emraan would request Paresh Sir to add his humour to a scene there by making the scenes more lively.”  The end result: A “ unique mentor-protégé relationship unseen in recent times”, he sums up.
Raja Natwarlal starring Emraan Hashmi, Humaima Malick, Paresh Rawal and Kay Kay Menon  is scheduled to release
August 29th 2014.
Riddled with twists and turns, power packed dialogues, action  and romance  the  audiences can expect a con-caper of a modern day Natwarlal unlike anything seen before.

Priyanka Chopra announces her maiden production project in collaboration with Madhur Bhandarkar.

As a director, he has a clear vision of what he wants and his choice of stories have always been very intriguing and exciting.  When he narrated the story to me, apart from everything else, I knew it would a great first project for me in production.  I’ve shared a wonderful, working relationship with both Madhur and Ram and we are all very excited about presenting the story to the world.

Reveals Madhur Bhandarkar, " Though I can't divulge many details on the film at this stage, Madamji is a performance oriented film of an item girl who turns into a top-notch politician and will not just be an eye-opener but a complete entertainer".
