Tanushree has stated that senior actor Nana Patekar had sexually harassed her during the shoot of 2007 film, Horn Ok Please. A case was filed on him and the actor was sacked from all his ongoing projects. After several months of investigation, the Mumbai Police has given him a clean chit in the case.

The cops have enquired the people who worked for the film and various other sources and none of them has confessed that Nana has committed the mistake. Thus, the cops gave him a clean chit. On the other side, Tanushree claimed that clean chit was not given to Nana and his team is spreading lies to gain sympathy.

When the media asked Amitabh to respond on the issue, Big B said that he is neither Nana not Tanu Shree to respond on the issue.

The statement did not go well with the actress who fired on Amitabh Bachchan. “These star heroes are never in a position to speak about the issues of women and they do show up by acting in social message films. I was upset with the comments made.” said the actress.

Tanushree Dutta accuses Nana Patekar

Actress Tanushree Dutta is making the headlines by bringing up a 10-year-old controversy. She is alleging that she was harassed by an actor Nana Patekar on the sets of “Horn ‘Ok’ Pleassss” in 2009. In an interview with a TV Channel, Tanushree Dutta said that even though so many people knew about Nana Patekar’s indecent behaviour with women, but have been tight-lipped.

“Everyone knows about Nana Patekar that he has always been disrespectful towards women. People in the industry know about his background, he has beaten actresses, he has molested them, his behaviour with women has always been rude but no publication has printed anything about it,” said Tanushree. She also took the names of biggies Akshay Kumar and Rajinikanth. “Akshay Kumar made few films with Nana Patekar in last eight years and Rajinikanth also recently worked with him (in Kaala). If such big stars will keep working with these culprits then there’s no hope for any movement to happen.” Added Tanushree.

She claimed that we hear so many stories about these actors. But nothing happens to them because their PR team manages these issues very well. Tanushree Dutta was supposed to appear in a special song sequence in “Horn ‘Ok’ Pleassss” movie, but she dropped out reportedly because of Nana Patekar’s misbehavior.

Emraan Hashmi – The rise of a serial kisser

How rarely does this phenomenon occur where a 23 yr old working as an assistant director for a film, becomes the male lead of the sequel and the re sequel of that film? Yes, we are talking about Emraan Hashmi who assisted Vikram Bhatt during Raaz and later became a poster boy of the Bhatt camp for a decade now.

Though Emraan debuted in Footpath, he came to the limelight with Anurag Basu’s Murder where he played a role that was oozed with confidence when it came to the steamy scenes. Emraan as a womanizer on screen shocked the nation by showing no qualms in doing sex scenes in Murder. The 13 kisses in the film were a record that time, and also started the trend of bold movies in Bollywood.  Making out on a terrace in that black silky blanket was like an unofficial advertisement of what Emraan’s further movies would be

murder

Murder was followed with Tumsa Nahin Dekha where he teamed up again with Anurag Basu. The first trailer of this film had Emraan bowled by Diya Mirza at a busstop and immediately giving a lip-lock.  And that gained him the title ‘Serial Kisser’.   The movie however bombed at the box office.

zeher

Zeher was Emraan’s fourth movie and the birth of a genius director from the Bhatt camp, Mohit Suri. Emraan played a cop and was paired with Shamita Shetty and Udita Goswami.  The illicit affair aspect was present in Zeher too where Emraan is in a secret relationship with Udita. The songs of Zeher especially ‘Woh Lamhe’, and ‘Agar Tum Mil Jaao’ are extremely popular chart busters.  A new beginning of unstoppable hit music numbers of Emraan took off. The next movie of our serial kisser was Aashiq Banaaye Aapne, where the raunchiness climbed up the ramp even more.  The title song became the hottest number of the year visually, and musically too which made Himesh Reshamiyya the topmost composer for few years that followed.  Performance-wise Emraan had nothing new to offer since the Murder days.

aba

His other release in the same year was Chocolate which went unnoticed and his routine performance seemed weaker as he was acting alongside talents like Irrfan Khan and Anil Kapoor.  The next film was Kalyug, where he played a supporting role of a punk with a heart of gold.  Kalyug was Emraan’s second film with Mohit Suri. With an interesting role and relatively better performance, he climbed another step in becoming a good actor.

kalyug

Just after he made his presence felt in Kalyug, Emraan came with up with two forgettable movies which again put him in the womanizer zone and offered nothing more than a bunch of smooches.  Jawaani Deewani and Aksar damaged whatever the little amount of hope he created from Kalyug.

aksar

In 2006, Gangster came as a blessing to him where he portrays a cop in disguise.  He utilized the opportunity well to show the sleek switch from the lover to the scheming cop towards the climax.  The next significant movie where we could see a groomed actor in him was in Awarapan, again directed by Mohit Suri.  The problem however was he intermittently did some terrible movies like Good Boy Bad Boy and Killer which focused only on banking upon his serial killer image, which obviously failed at the box-office.  Not surprisingly, the ones which had substantial characterization like in Jannat worked well.

jannat2

A milestone in his career which put a stop to the inconsistency of how his movies fared at box office was Once Upon A Time In Mumbai.  It was a very important event of his career, as he passed the acid test. The acid test was performing in par with Ajay Devgan, and he came out in flying colors.   His performance as Shoaib was loved and triggered some wonderful roles in the subsequent years.  Though his ease and expertise in enacting bold bedroom scenes was continued to be used, it was given a lower priority than the characterization.  His role as Abraham in Dirty Picture was well-written and performed flawlessly.  He created a space for himself in the movie when the movie comprised gems like Vidya Balan and Naseeruddin Shah. In Murder 2 also, he was impressive as the suspended cop trying to unveil the mystery murders.

murder 2

In the 2012 and 2013 releases, he delivered some amazing performances in three completely contrasting roles. In Ek Thi Daayan which came from the Vishal Bhardwaj camp, he played a magician Bobo, who is suspicious of women with a long plait as Daayans. In the caper comedy Ghanchakkar, he worked with the very talented Raj Kumar Gupta. His displayed some commendable histrionics as Sanjay, who loses his memory after a bank robbery.  In Dibakar Banerjee’s Shanghai, Emraan gave his career-best performance as Joginder in a completely deglamourized but a wonderful role.

The story of Emraan’s rise is a great illustration of persistence and hard-work. Emraan has come a long way from an almost B-grade hero to a bankable actor of Bollywood! The other factors which contributed to his success are: Music and Mohit Suri. Emraan is the only actor who could get numerous best-of-the-best music tracks in the last ten years. There is at least one number from each of his movies that top the charts whenever they release. Mohit Suri has been phenomenal in giving Emraan roles that would bring out a better actor out of him. From Zeher to Kalyug to Awarapan to Raaz2 to Crook to Murder 2, he has been the fuel.  Their 7th venture together is Hamaari Adhuri Kahaani which also stars great talents like Vidya Balan and Raj Kumar Rao.

ghanchakkar

His other movies to look forward in 2014 are Ungli in Karan Johar’s production and Kunal Deshmukh’s Shaatir.
