Dilwale: Sneak Preview

Rajeev Malhotra: Dilwale is very important to me for a couple of reasons. First, I’m paired opposite my special friend and favorite co-star Natasha Rai after a decade. I’m excited to be reviving the hit Rajeev-Natasha jodi and am so glad that after years of struggle, she’s finally established herself as the #1 actress. Second, it marks my return to Trollywood after ages! So much has changed in this industry and younger actors like Summer and Faraz Khan have rightfully taken Trollywood by storm. Dilwale feels like it is my Shahenshah moment to see if I am still in demand and if I still hold a place in people’s hearts. If the film works, I will definitely be here to stay!


Malini Nanku-Malhotra: Dilwale is one of the most important films not just for BPP but entire Trollywood also. Since KANK there has not been such a big film with all bigest names of Trollywood. For me, Dilwale is definitely the best role I have played in my career as the entire film revolves around my love story with Saagar. I know fans always wait for my pairing with Natasha as in the past I have played many hit parallel roles with her but in this film it's completely different as I am the lead actress of Dilwale. Stay tuned as I am sure my fans are in for a big treat this holiday season!


Saagar Malhotra: Dilwale is so important to me. My fans know that whenever I take on a project, it is because I feel it will be worth my time. Dilwale truly is an author backed role and an intense love story where I’m working with all the biggest names in the industry. Yet, to be honest, what I’m most excited about is the opportunity to finally work with my baby brother Rajeev again. For this reason alone, it will be a historic film not to be missed!


Natasha Rai: Dilwale is important for my career for mainly two reasons. First I have been paired with Rajiv Malhotra after a decade. We worked together in Bhansali's Silsila which was a super hit back then. So it was a pleasure to work with Rajiv again and hopefully we will give another blockbuster in Dilwale. Second, I am playing a role that is young, sexy and modern and definitely not boring. Dilwale is all fun and fresh!!

50 Shades from Grey to Gay

50 Shades of Gay

TGF™ released it's much hyped Valentine's Day erotic thriller "50 Shades of Gay" on February 11, 2015 through paid previews. The marketing strategy was very similar to that of Darr 3 by BPP™. 

The film is now released to the public and along with the promotion, we are happy to introduce you to the Columbia University educated director of 50 Shades of Gay, Kapil Bhandarkar. 

Tfare: Can you tell us why you decided to make this film?

Kapil: Certainly. I have no hesitation in admitting that the idea actually came from Rehan. He felt that with Friday the 13th being a spookie day and also the release of the much talked about 50 Shades of Grey, it would be perfect to release a spoof titled "50 Shades of Gay." I agreed whole heatedly and we decided to make an edgy film with a deliberately dark theme that said it all - love it or hate it, you can't ignore it!

Tfare: Many people even within the gay community have reacted negatively to the highly sexual and almost a threesome situation depicted in the promos. Please explain?

Kapil: As I mentioned, we knew we were making an edgy film - something never done before in Trollywood. 50 Shades of Grey actually explores a much more bohemian topic than our film which is simply a love triangle. If millions of mainstream audience are overwhelmingly supporting an S&M film, then why are we being so narrow minded about a Trollywood love triangle? People will see what they want to see and maybe that's what we tried to accomplish. But fact is that the promo just shows one couple kissing while the ex boy friend played by Rehan is clearly looking away. People are free to interpret how they want but I have been true to myself and my audience in making a love story. Our film probably has more in common with the Bollywood hit Dil to Paagal Hai than any Hollywood S&M film. 

Tfare: You are the most successful director under TGF™. What are your future plans?

Kapil: Well in the immediate future my plan is to promote my film in every way I can and for that I am truly thankful to Tfare staff for giving me this opportunity here. In the more distant future, I hope to come up with an interesting script and work for bigger production houses and maybe even BPP™! (winks)

Tfare: Who else would you like to work with in Trollywood?

Kapil: I definitely want to work with the most successful artists but from the guys Niraj is on top of my list. As for the girls, of course like everyone else I would be honored to work with the talented and beautiful diva Natasha Rai. I've followed her films even before I came to this industry. Her growth as an actress has been astounding but I still think her best is yet to come. Hopefully it will be a film with me one day. 

Tfare: Any last message for our readers?

Kapil: Before judging a book by it's cover, I ask all Tfare readers to please see this film and make up your own minds. Thank you so much for supporting this and all my previous films!

Darr 3 Creates History!

Arun Bhansali's latest film Darr 3 - The Diva Returns created box office history by registering the biggest first day collections and collecting the highest cost per link. While collections fell from Wednesday, it is now the second highest grossing movie in Trollywood history**, edging out collections for the prequel - Darr -2. The overwhelming response for paid previews has resulted in a new marketing strategy where BPP will provide a lifetime link to those that purchase links during the first 2 days of a film's release. As an added protection to owners of the links, anyone found to be sharing links or videos will be forever banned by BPP.

Here are the highest grossing films in Trollywood History

1. Kanti Raj's RAAZ - 3: Saagar Malhotra, Malini Nanku & Deepika Parajuli

2. Arun Bhansali's DARR - 3*: Summer Pandey, Natasha Rai & Farhaaz Khan

3. Kapil Bhandarkar's HNY: Neeraj Khadka, Deepika Parajuli & Rehan Khan

4. Kanti Raj's DOSTANA: Summer Pandey, Malini Malhotra & Farhaaz Khan

5. Arun Bhansali's DARR - 2*: Summer Pandey, Natasha Rai & Farhaaz Khan

* New Release

**Ratings based on average of clicks and paid previews. Films could go higher or lower than average, based on future box office performance.

DARR - The Diva Returns Opens 7 PM on January 7

It promises to be a 2015 feminist take of the original classic. Releasing on limited paid preview today and worldwide 2 days later on Friday, Darr – The Diva Returns showcases Natasha Rai, Summer Pandey and Faraaz Khan in love, passion and yes, obsession!  The entire cast is waiting in anticipation of fan’s reaction and in an exclusive for TFare, they have shared exactly why they feel this is a must watch to start off your year on a high.  

Natasha Rai: I have listened to my fans and have tried to live upto their expectation. I have come up with a new Diva look that I have never tried before in this new age film Darr- the Diva Returns. I have done my best to bring out the sweet and sultry look of Kiran that the mass has been wanting to see again but in a bolder, sexier avatar that is more 2015. See you in the theater!

Summer Pandey: I have always believed that when you work with the best, it improves your own talent exponentially. Thanks to BPP, I am fortunate enough to have started my career with a celebrated and talented actress like Malini Nanku-Malhotra. Darr 2 was pure joy as it pitted me opposite my fellow Nepali Natasha Rai as her lover. While Darr 3 retains the flavor of Darr 2, it is a must see because the focus is now on Kiran who returns to take revenge. My chemistry with Natasha has to be seen to be believed! 

Faraaz Khan: Darr 2 was a fanboy moment for me to be pitted opposite Natashaji in an antagonist role. Arun wanted a very 2015 look for Darr – The Diva Returns and I drew inspiration from Patrick Bateman in American Psycho and Christian Gray in the upcoming 50 Shades of Gray. The idea of a handsome and charming Armani wearing psycho is something never seen before in Trollywood. I am certain that under Mr. Bhansali’s direction, my version of Rahul Mehra will become a classic!
