The latest buzz concerns the leading lady, who will portray the character enacted by Kareena Kapoor in the Hindi version of the film. The ‘Pokiri’ girl Ileana has been roped in to step into Bebo’s shoes in both the versions of the film.
All the viewers, who have watched Kareena’s performance in the movie, will obviously have a high expectation from Ileana too, as Kareena has done justice to her character in the film. So, Ileana has a huge responsibility on her shoulders to carry off the character well.
The 23-year-old actress, who has become a popular name in Tollywood, is very excited to be paired with her ‘Pokiri’ hero Mahesh Babu again. She said that earlier she was reserved as a newcomer but now she can connect well with him. She is also very happy to get an opportunity to work with filmmaker Shankar and considers it as a dream coming true for her.
Ileana says that she will face the challenge by giving her own style to the character. She does not want to be termed as a copy cat of Kareena. However, Ileana has claimed to watch the Hindi version of 3 Idiots twice.
Well, every actress says the same thing when they are taken for a remake movie but if Ileana can really put forth her own style then audience would love to watch her because she is youthful and pretty and has given some really good performances in her earlier films.

‘I have no heartfelt desire to work with SRK’: Ranbir Kapoor
Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor maintains he never said he was desperate to share screen space with Shah Rukh Khan, but admitted he would love to work with the superstar if a good project came his way.
“I had no such dil ki tamanna (heartfelt desire) to work with Shah Rukh sir. But I
respect him a lot. I am a big fan of him,” Ranbir told reporters on the margins of the HT Leadership Summit here Friday.
The 28-year-old, who was here with his father, evergreen star Rishi Kapoor, says a superstar’s presence in a project isn’t reason enough for him to accept it.
“It’s not that if a superstar will be there in a film, I’ll agree to do it. But if I like a film, I like its script, I would be more than glad to do it,” he added.
Nevertheless, Ranbir enjoys the attention he gets from the youth.
“If a generation follows me, they follow my movies and they want to emulate me…it feels good. But I really don’t take that seriously. I do not feel responsible for others (youth). I feel responsible to my work. Whatever I am doing is for myself, and because this is what I want to achieve, these are the goals that I have set…,” he said.
John to turn director soon…
Having worked in more than 30 films in seven years, John Abraham says audiences have become more accepting of his understated, realistic style of acting. He also wants to wield the megaphone soon and is sure of doing a good job as a director.
“I have good friends around me who are directors and related stories writers. They are all willing to sit with me, help me and formulate screenplays. I have ideas and I want to become a director very soon and when I become one, I will be damn good at it,” John told in an interview.
“Probably, five-eight years down the line, I’ll direct a film. I’m just seven years old in the industry. I want to first just settle down properly and singularly prove myself in a big way and then I will get into direction,” added the actor who will turn 38 next month.
John has worked in all genres – from Oscar nominated period drama Water to comedies Garam Masala and Dostana to issue-based New York.
Explaining his evolution as an actor, he said: “After all these years, I think I’ve become very comfortable with the medium, but more than myself I’ve seen a change in the perception of the audience towards me.
“I’ve always been an understated actor. I’m not into over-projection. When I joined the industry, there was a section of the audience that felt I was too understated. Today the same audiences have a different perception and somehow that same style of acting is working for them now.
“I really haven’t changed. I’m following my director’s brief and I’m doing exactly that. But people’s perception has changed. The sense of reality has prevailed in the mind of the audience and I think that’s the change I have seen.”
His nerdy look in Jhootha Hi Sahi failed to set the cash registers ringing, but the Bollywood hunk has not given up. He is all set to play boy-next-door in a new film.
“I’ll be starting the film in March, which will be directed by Kapil Sharma, a first time director. He is the best chief assistant director we have in the country,” said John.
“The film is about just a regular guy who gets busted by all the women in his life. It’s about a guy who learns life through the women he is with – his mother, sister, his boss, his neighbour, his girlfriend, his ex-girlfriend. It’s just about this journey. It’s amazing.”
The final title of the film is yet to be decided. “Right now it’s called The Re-education of Ishaan Sabharwal. That’s a working title,” he said.
Currently, he is busy with director Nishikant Kamat and producer Vipul Shah’s Hindi remake of Tamil blockbuster Kaakha Kaakha. The action movie also stars Genelia D’Souza.
“I have already shot 20 per cent of the film. We shot for 25 days, we have another 40-45 days left and we are done. So we finish in January end,” said John.
Is there any movie on the anvil with his actress girlfriend Bipasha Basu? Both debuted together with Jism in 2003 and were also seen as a couple in Aetbaar and Madhoshi.
The couple was last seen together in 2007 film Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal.
“I don’t know, depends on whether we are offered a good script. Till then we are okay not doing work together. Anyway there is no public display of affection in our case. We are pretty much in our own worlds,” said the actor.
Shilpa Shetty is the trend-setter…
Looking stunning in a short black dress and matching stilletoes, Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty said she would prefer to be a trend-setter than a trend-follower.
“I’d rather be a trend-setter than a trend-follower in life. I have done some of the strangest things in my life and I have just done them because I have believed in them,” Shilpa told reporters.
The actress was in the capital at Hotel Lalit to launch HP DreamScreen, an interactive, touchscreen digital device.
Shilpa, who is married to millionaire Raj Kundra, revealed that she is a very simple person.
“I like to do things that are simple and keep my life as simple as possible,” she said.
