Irrespective of his recent string of box office failures,director Ram Gopal Varma is not giving up yet. For his next film,Bhoot 2,he has brought back Chakravarty,who played the title role in Satya. The movie is a sequel to the Urmila Matondkar and Ajay Devgn-starrer Bhoot (2004),which was among the last few critically acclaimed films that Varma made. Chakravarty has been missing from Bollywood for a long time,after doing films such as Vaastu Shastra and Aag. With Chakravartys return,will Varma also make a sequel to Satya? Time will tell.
Capital Buddha
Buddha Bar,the international lounge chain thats said to be a favourite of Madonna and Johnny Depp,will be arriving in India this week. The outlet,in Sakets Select City Walk mall,will be called B-Bar (so as not to upset religious sentiments). It will seat 330 people and one can expect the trademarks of Buddha Bar outlets in Monaco,Kiev,Budapest,Beirut,Manila and Las Vegas baroque interiors,Asian-inspired cuisine and huge spaces. And,of course,the latest music,since Buddha Bar is credited with introducing live DJ music to diners at restaurants.
