1. Rajinikanth is a Man with a Golden Heart: Akshay Kumar

Akshay Kumar, who will soon make his Tamil debut in Robot 2 with Rajinikanth, is in awe of the southern superstar. Akshay will be playing the negative lead in the Robot sequel. The two actors recently did a photo session for their upcoming film.

<p><b>I always had this in my mind that whenever I would get a chance to star with Rajinikanth in a film, I would never let it go. Rajinikanth is a man with a golden heart. When I met him for the first time during the shoot, I was completely in awe of him. I was behaving like a child, who innocently looks at the candy jars in a shop. It was a wonderful experience.</b></p>

2. Mastizaade Dialogues Made Me Uncomfortable: Sunny Leone

One would think that Sunny Leone wouldn’t be uncomfortable delivering dialogues in an adult comedy, but it seems like Mastizaade was a bit much, even for her. She had to ask her director Milap Zaveri to tone down some scenes and dialogues in the film, since she was not comfortable with them.

<p><b>When I read the script, there were certain things which I told Milap that I cannot do, because I was not comfortable with the dialogues and scenes. The best thing was Milap and my producer (Rangita Pritish Nandy) were accommodating and they made changes in the script and discussed options with me.</b></p>

Sunny plays a double role in Mastizaade, which releases in theatres on January 29th.

Last week’s release Kyaa Kool Hain Hum 3, an adult comedy, is facing a ban by the Pakistani censor board over ‘obscene’ content. After a board meeting the committee decided that the film is not suitable enough to release in the country. Pakistan’s CBFC chief Mobashir Hasan said that the film was found to be an ‘out and out obscene film’ with vulgar dialogues and nudity. NDTV reported that some cinemas had started screening the film on Friday last week, but the general manager at a cinema said that after just two days they got orders from their distributor to suspend the screening of the film.

<p><b>We have issued a showcase notice to the distributor and he faces a hefty fine for importing this film and selling it to some exhibitors without first going through proper channels</b></p>
