YRF SPLITS WITH K-JO ...SRK MEANWHILE TEAMS UP WITH YRF?
Strange is the industry. But that is how the industry functions. First of all, Karan Johar's latest production Dostana is splitting up friends. It is evident with Yash Raj Films not distributing this venture from Dharma Productions. Instead Karan is happy to receive offers from other distribution houses like Eros and Studio18.
Meanwhile a day earlier it was reported that Karan's good buddy Shahrukh is all set to co-produce Yash Raj Film's prestigious Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. Obviously Yash Raj is too big a production house that they need any outside help. But such is the star power that SRK oozes, that even Yash Raj will have to share the pie with SRK.
So much for Yash Raj who were riding piggy bank and making their own camp. Now suddenly they seem to be paying the price for all this.
THREE DAYS FOR TEEN PATTI: THE BIG B SAGA
In what can be a ridiculous piece of news, Mid-Day reports that Amitabh Bachchan, despite receiving a renumeration of Rs 5 crores for the TEEN PATTI project have no dates to spare for the film. Directed by Leena Yadav (Shabd), it seems that all Bachchan now has given is a mere three days for her to can as much as possible. The film also stars Arshad Warsi and a bunch of newcomers.
IRFAN KHAN AGAIN WITH MIRA NAIR?

A SEQUEL WITH NO DHAMAAL?
That is what producer Indra Kumar seems to be cooking up these days. With the success of the Dhamaal, Indra Kumar wants to repeat the success but seems to be unsuccessful in repeating the cast members. All he has managed to do is sign Sanjay Dutt for a hefty amount, but it looks like neither Arshad Warsi nor Riteish Reshmukh is really keen in returning for the sequel, supposedly titled Double Dhamaal.
However the latest twist is that Indra Kumar is roping in Aftab Shivdasani to replace Arshad who has no dates to spare.
ARSHAD TO TURN PRODUCER
And sticking onto more of Arshad Warsi, the man is seriously planning to jump into the production ring. He might very soon produce a film and most likely it will be directed by his SEHER director KAbir Kaushik. Rediff reports
