The film sees Bappi da in alovable role of DK aka Disco King who gets kidnapped for his gold. And insteadof being worried at the kidnapping, DK takes it upon himself to give thevillain’s adda an architectural makeover. And is supported in this task by thevillain’s cronies who are his diehard fans.
For the film, Bappi da has chosen to bring back to life his oldtime hit Yaad Aar aha Hai. And with it, another superlative number that the veterancomposer feels will be the chartbuster after Ooh La La.

Says Dhumketu Punatar, “Bappi da was very enthusiastic to record a songafter Ooh La La. And Boka Chor from Dard-E-Disco that is ready to release, wasa very interesting number. And I felt we should go in for the making on youtubeas Bappi da’s songs are youthful and more than touch a chord with youngsters.”
 Adds Bappi da, “it is four decades since I entered the filmindustry as composer. And it is the love of the people that has kept me going.I was touched by the response to Ooh La La and it was a shocker when Victoria’sSecret used my song or their rampwalk even! Now, I look forward to the samelove from my audiences of Boka Chor.”
The video goes thus… Asrani questions Bappi da on why he is a ailure in love.And Bappi da tells him that it is because  he is a  “…boka chor, boka chor, boka chor, dil ka chor…nee oru muttaal…”
Bappi da admits, he is influenced by his uncle Kishore Kumar. “Kishoreda is a great inspiration. I am not even one-tenth of him in acting, but Iwanted to make audiences laugh like him in this film with my humour. And thisis my tribute to Kishore da,” says an emotional Bappi da.

Gali Gali Chor Hai Releasing on 3rd Feb 2012

Meet Bharat, the Aam Aadmi, part time cashier and part time “Hanuman” at Ramleela, residing in the city of Bhopal where he lives with his father Shivnarayan, an old timer who values freedom and hopes to see a corruption free administration in the country. Bharat is married to Nisha a schoolteacher, loving and caring but doubting wife concerned more about Bharat’s promotion from cashier to manager at the bank than his flying tricks at the ‘Ramleela’. The small and happy family lives with a forced upon guest Amita, a young, beautiful girl who works at a call center, forgets her ID at home and likes to hitch a ride with Bharat on his scooter when he is not busy dropping his wife at school. Did I forget to mention, Bharat drives a Scooter, the sidekick of this story. Bharat wants to graduate from his role as ‘Hanuman’ to ‘Lord Ram’ someday which is being portrayed by Sattu Thripati, younger brother of MLA Manku Thripati, both having individual problems with him. Sattu, a bad actor is always unhappy that ‘Hanuman’ steals the show with his performance and Manku the MLA is unhappy over Bharat’s refusal to let out his extra room to campaigning for his re-election. Adding Sugar on Spice is the fact that Bharat’s father ShivNarayan befriends the opposing candidate Mohanlal and lets out the room to him for his campaign.One night Hawaldar Parshuram Khushwaah comes knocking on Bharat’s door informing him about the theft of a Table-fan from his household. Khushwaa orders Bharat to come at the small court where local panwala Bacchu Gulkand, will appear as witness to confess about skilled thief Chunnu Farishta’s, actual confession about stealing the fan from his house much to Bharat’s reluctance. At the court, firstly the witness fails to turn up, later the judge takes an unduly holiday and Bharat has to appoint a lawyer suggested to him by Chunnu recommended by Khushwaa. Somehow, Bharat manages to bribe his way from the cops to the criminals, from the witness to the lawyer and finally the judge to get his fan back. Now the real act begins for Bharat here onwards, the ordinary fan of everyday usage meant at providing a cool breeze on hot days, turns his life into a metaphorical remark aimed at the system by making this part time cahier slash hanuman into the front page national news heard from lane to lane filled with thieves.  How?  Let’s Find Out India.

This Christmas and New Year, brace you for royal treat in the picturesque paradise of Goa! Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia unveiled the scintillating Sheesh Mahal, Goa at Margao with a grand ambience, limitless hospitality and exotic cuisines. This is the first time ever that tourist hotspot Goa has got a restaurant inspired by the legendary Sheesh Mahal (Palace of Mirrors) and is bound to be a tourist attraction by itself. 
Present on the occasion was a proud and beaming Mohammed Fasih (proprietor) along with several prominent personalities, socialites and celebrities from Goa. 
Mohammed Fasih says, “In the ‘Landmark created by Nature’ (Goa), Sheesh Mahal is a manmade marvel and a timeless milestone in itself. In our land where the guest is treated as God, Sheesh Mahal will treat tourists as royalty. It also offers a delightful new experience in terms of hi-spirited concoctions and culinary treats pleasing the mind, body and soul.” 
Actress Neha Dhupia added, “Sheesh Mahal is one more wonderful reason for me to keep visiting Goa. The ambience is out of the world and the hospitality is heavenly. The interiors are so enchanting that one feels as if one is being transported into another world. And it offers a welcome change as it adds a new dimension to the existing fare in Goa. I am sure it will carve a niche for itself and attract hordes of revelers.”  
Inspired by the legendary Sheesh Mahal, Goa’s new never-seen before tourist hotspot promises a lot of things to different connoisseurs and aficionados at once! The quaint twin coloured mirror impressions offer a soothing welcome to the uninitiated patron. Its exquisite design and pristine environs result in a charming ambience. It has room for everything – a bar, buffet, chattering folks sitting in comfortable wooden chairs and those tired souls trying some innovative and smooth cocktails to lift their moods at the bar. The bar is adorned with motifs of royalty that transport you to the glorious era of the bygones. The electrifying blue rays stand out in the otherwise well-lit place treating you to a mesmerizing interplay of lights of all kinds. Ideal for heady cocktails or mocking mocktails! 
Once you are taken in by the charged up ambience, the mood is set right for a sumptuous fare. Settle in one of those cozy sofas sprinkled with comfy little cushions with an interestingly patterned and lit up dining table. The soothing lighting highlights the hand engraved paintings on the wall that evoke images of the passionate preoccupations of the Maharajas and the Nawabs! The impressive carte du jour tucks in the best from Peshawari Indian Food, Mughlai, Hyderabadi, Afghani and even Rajasthani cuisines. Must try’s include Dal Peshawari, Tangadi Kulfi Kabab, Lemon Sizzler, Butter Garlic Prawns, Mutton Rogan Josh, Nilli Nihari and Chicken Tikka Masala, to name a few. Feel like royalty.

Filmy Box ventures into production with youth film, Login

Filmy Box, the corporate entity by entrepreneur Narendra Singh, has made its niche in the film marketing and music market alike. Now the company has ventured into production with Login, a film about how in urban life, we are connected online but disconnected offline.
Dwelling on the new age phenomenon of social networking that has almost deleted the human side of people, Login, written and directed by Sanjeev Reddy,  dwells on online frauds, online dating and social networking and tries to analyse how we do have a life offline that we need to focus on as well. And more importantly, throws light on how what we think is secret. 
Says  Narendra Singh, “we were looking at exciting concepts and found Login to be a very fresh and happening concept. Hence, we decided to go ahead and make the film with Cocktail Pictures.” 
Adds Sanjeev Reddy, “the film is fresh and needed fresh faces as the concept connects all of us. As youngsters, login is term that we all cannot live without today, hence I chose to make this my maiden film.” 
The songs are already recorded for Login, with music by Sunil Kashyap and voices by  Akriti Kakkar and Ravindra Upadhyay among others. 
Here is looking forward to Login that shows you how a single click can change your life.
