Ram Gopal Varma held a press conference for his new film Rann which is a commentary on the media through different characters such as an investigative journalist, a media baron, politicians and ordinary citizens.

Amitabh Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Neetu Chandra, and Gul Panag attended the press meet to discuss their roles in the film and working with RGV.

RGV clarified that the film isn’t about media bashing (even though he has tense relations with the media folk over the years with his directorial ventures),  “I expose the media by showing its true colours…the pressures, problems and complexities in running a 24 hour news channel.”

Eeeeeeeeeee. Looks brilliant!

Rann hits theaters January 22nd.

Unfortunately all you lovers of the Bachans clan in the Sarkar series will have to just enjoy Sarkar and Sarkar Raj because all plans to make the 3rd film have been shelved!!

It seems that director Ram Gopal Verma feels that he can’t do justice to penning another script so he’s just leaving the series be.  Ramu hopes to make another movie with all 3 Bachans at some point later on, it won’t be Sarkar 3.

SAD.

We were really looking to seeing how Aishwarya Rai would take over as the head of the family with Amitabh Bachan.

Oh well, at least we have the other two Sarkars to watch repeatedly!!

I hate Michael Jackson. I hate him for dying and making me realize that he is finally only a human being. I hate that he too has to breathe to live. I hate that he too has a heart which can stop like anybody else’s. I hate that I lived to see a scroll on CNN “Michael Jackson’s body sent to Mortuary”. I truly truly hate Michael Jackson for becoming a grim reality from a fantastic fantasy. I love you Michael wherever you are… and I will always love you.
