Maverick director, Ram Gopal Varma is back in the business and how. RGV’s latest Hindi film, Veerappan has been getting rave reviews in Bollywood and everyone who have been bashing Ramu are all praises for him. RGV took a break from Bollywood and had been making Telugu films from quite some time now. After the success of Killing Veerappan, he decided to remake the same film in Hindi and looks like he has hit the bulls eye this time. Lauding his efforts, even mega star Amitabh Bachchan said that RGV is a genius director and he is looking forward on working for Sarkaar 3 with RGV. Being a controversial personality, RGV is quite famous for his Twitter fiasco’s but looks like his films are now doing all the talking.
Abhishek Bachchan who will be seen in the upcoming film 'Housefull 3', has done it all for the film. Things like Tattoo and piercing which we have till date never seen him wearing on screen or off screen for that matter. Well not just that but also Abhishek will be seen rapping again, yes that's right again! its like a triple treat the audience will get to watch. Sounds like a full house entertainment package. As we all remember the rap sung by Abhishek Bachchan which was the title track of the film 'Bluffmaster' which was remarkable and got quite famous and we still have that playing in our minds when so ever we think of it. Yet again Abhishek will be seen rapping in the film 'Housefull 3'. Abhishek is playing a very cool dude character in 'Housefull 3' for which he has done tremendous work over his looks. In the trailer we saw a glimpse of him rapping and is really catchy, once we hear it, it will be something that will leave an impression on our minds for a good time for sure. Certainly Ritesh Deshmukh and Boman Irani were also a part of Bluffmaster and will be sharing screen space with Abhishek in 'Housefull 3' again, it sure is a coincidence or merely just luck. It is a happy moment for Abhishek as he may feel more comfortable working again with such great actors and rapping again which seems to be his comfort zone undoubtedly. Also starring Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri and Lisa Haydon, the much awaited film 'Housefull 3' is all set to release on June 3rd, 2016.
While shooting for 'Raman Raghav 2.0', it once happened that Nawazzudin Siddique had to deliver a ten minute long Monologue, which was shot from 10 different angles. To maintain continuity, Nawaz had to be stationed at the same place while the camera setup was changed, as a result Nawaz ended up speaking for 300 minutes at the same position, keeping the tone and style the same and giving his best every time. However, the entire process did take a toll on Nawaz, as at the end of it all, he experienced a total blackout and couldn't talk for sometime. This just shows the kind of dedication Nawaz showed towards his craft for 'Raman Raghav 2.0'. A psychological-thriller, 'Raman Raghav 2.0' is all set to hit theaters on 24th June.

Once known as one of the best directors in the Indian film industry for some of his cult classics, eccentric genius Ram Gopal Varma downgraded himself to making quickies with cheap technical values and lackluster stories. After failing to bounce back into limelight with Telugu films, RGV again shifted his base to Bollywood with Veerappan. Speaking to a popular national news agency while promoting the film, RGV looked back at what went wrong with him and his films. RGV confessed that he was getting repetitive and working with insane mindset and the same people over these years. The maverick director also said that he now wants to relook and rejuvenate himself on his Bollywood comeback. The director may soon direct Big B Amitabh in Sarkar 3.
