‘This is not based on historical fact’- Ben Stiller on NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM

By Rinki on Thursday, July 23rd, 2009
'Night at the Museum

In this sequel, Ben Stiller is back as Larry Daley and is once again embroiled in an astonishing adventure with a host of enthralling historical figures who have come to life. This time though, the stakes are far higher.

Q- Is this sequel different from the first film?

A-“It seems to me that this one is even more exciting with a better story and an actual antagonist, and Larry is in a different place this time. In the first movie, I was discovering things and having to react; I cannot believe these things are coming to life. In the second one, Larry knows what is going on and it is really more about having to interact in a different way with the things that come to life because he’s already experienced it before.”

By Joginder Tuteja on Monday, June 15th, 2009

A little while back, film maker Onir had announced that he would be telling five short stories in a single movie. While he is currently casting for his film(s) and is looking at kick starting the principal shoot in the 1st week of June, he is managing to create quite some buzz with the themes that his stories are going to explore. Earlier in news for his story ‘Abhimanyu’ that touches upon the subject of child abuse, Onir’s second short film ‘Omar’ promises to reveal the nexus between police and male sex workers which has time and again resulted in blackmail and abuse of gay men on the pretext of using article 377.

Priyanka Kothari

A couple of years back when DARLING had released, Priyanka Kothari (then known as Nisha Kothari) had delivered a chartbuster item song in the form of ‘Aa Khushi Se Khudkhushi Kar Le’ [Darling] where she got naughty with Fardeen Khan. Though she hasn’t been very active in the Bollywood circuit ever since the release of the film (barring an occasional GO which was a delayed release), she is all set to return with a bang with AGYAAT. The film features her a solo female lead and would also boast of a sizzling dance number which has been tantalisingly titled ‘Kiss Mix’.
