Horror show
Seems like director Mohit Suri is getting a bit of his own back. The filmmaker has cast his cousin Emraan Hashmi in his latest horror flick Raaz – The Mystery Continues. Apparently, while growing up, Emraan would lock his younger cousin in the bathroom and switch off the light. So how did Mohit avenge himself? He made the actor watch 30 horror flicks in preparation for his role and also made him read ‘real-life’ horror stories from all the places they shot in. Emraan apparently got spooked out of his wits, much to the amusement of his cousin. Seems like revenge is indeed a dish best served cold.
The new muse
Looks like Rachna Shah is someone to look out for. She made a low key debut in The Last Monk, by the not-too-well-known director Sudipto Sen but she received some rave reviews for her performance when the film was screened at the Cannes Film Festival. Right now, the lady is excited about her role in Ketan Mehta’s Rang Rasiya and apparently she’s gone to great lengths to prepare for it. She put on a few kilos as she plays Raja Ravi Verma’s first muse and even studied some works by the celebrated painter. Moreover, Rachna says that she’s ready for a little skin-show, but “only if the script demands it”. How predictable.
