If I’m Rolls-Royce, Badshah is Nano: Honey Singh

March 11, 2016

Mumbai, Mar 11: They may have collaborated earlier on hit songs but now, rapper Honey Singh says the difference between his music and singer Badshah’s is that of a Rolls-Royce and a Nano. The duo worked together for six years until 2012 and collaborated on songs including tracks like “Get up Jawani” and “Khol Botal”. Badshah launched his first single in 2006 with Honey. During Honey’s ‘break’ from the music scene, Badshah gave chartbusters like “DJ Waley Babu” and the recent “Kar gayi chull” from “Kapoor & Sons”.

honeyWhen asked if Badshah has taken over the music scene in his absence, Honey told reporters, “Have you driven a Rolls -Royce? There is a difference between a Rolls-Royce (an ultra luxury car brand) and a Nano (the world’s cheapest car).” The 32-year-old singer was speaking at the trailer launch of his upcoming Punjabi film “Zorawar”. Honey’s last Bollywood song was 2015?s “Aankhon Aankhon” from Kunal Kemmu-starrer “Bhaag Johnny”.

The “Lungi Dance” singer, who reportedly was in rehab, did not divulge the reason for his absence but said it was an “important phase” of his life. “It’s a long story, I had disappeared for almost 18 months. There were lots of rumours about where I was. But today I’ll talk about my movie, very soon I’ll give an interview where I’ll tell you the entire story about what had happened with me. That’s an important phase of my life.” It was also reported that Honey had a fight with superstar Shah Rukh Khan during the latter’s world tour, but the “Angreji Beat” hitmaker dismissed the reports. “Nothing like that happened. We have great relations (with each other).

I met him after one-and-a-half years at an award function (recently), we couldn’t meet earlier.” “Zorawar” will feature Honey making his debut as a lead actor in films. He was earlier seen in Himesh Reshammiya’s “The Xpose”. The “Chaar Botal Vodka” singer says he wanted to try his hands at acting and feels it was a challenging task. “I don’t consider myself just a rapper or singer. I am a music producer, lyricist, poet… Acting is also a part of big entertainment. So it was something which was left. It is a tough job to portray a character and make it believable on screen.” Directed by Vinnil Markan, “Zorawar” is scheduled to release on May 6.

Los Angeles, Mar 6: Filmmaker-writer Taika Waititi is set to direct two animated series based on Roald Dahl's "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" for Netflix.

Waititi, who won an Academy Award in February for his adapted screenplay, "Jojo Rabbit", will also serve as the writer and producer on the animated series.

According to Deadline, the first series will be based on the world of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", while the second will be an original take on the Oompa-Loompa characters from the book.

The Oompa-Loompas are little humans who were preyed upon in Loompaland before Wonka invited them to work at his chocolate factory. They are paid in cocoa beans and love practical jokes and singing songs.

Netflix said the animation series would "retain the quintessential spirit and tone of the original story while building out the world and characters far beyond the pages of the Dahl book for the very first time."

The series will follow in the footsteps of Gene Wilder's 1971 portrayal of Willy Wonka and Johnny Depp's 2005 interpretation.

Mumbai, May 17: TV actor Manmeet Grewal, who worked on shows like "Aadat Se Majboor" and "Kuldeepak", committed suicide after struggling with dwindling finances amid lockdown, family friend-producer Manjit Singh Rajput said.

Grewal, who was originally from Punjab, hanged himself on Friday night at his Kharghar residence here where he lived with his wife. He was 32.

Rajput, who had known Grewal for nearly seven years, said the actor was facing "financial crisis" and wasn't able to earn due to the lockdown. 

"He was going through a major financial issue and he was also in depression. The added pressure of not being able to repay loans amid this (no work phase) got to him. His wife is completely shocked and devastated," Rajput told PTI.

The producer said last rites of the actor were performed on Saturday. 

Grewal was working on projects like a webseries and some commercials, which were put on hold due to the nationwide lockdown amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Mumbai, May 10: Nearly a month after recovering from the coronavirus, actor Zoa Morani says she has donated her blood plasma to do her bit in helping the patients currently suffering from the novel virus. The actor, who was quarantined and kept under medication in April, also urged those who have recovered from COVID-19 to donate their plasma.

"Donated my blood today for the Plasma therapy trials at Nair hospital. It was fascinating! Always a silver lining I suppose. The team there was so enthusiastic and careful. There was a general physician on standby just incase of emergency and the equipment brand new and safe (sic)," Zoa wrote on Instagram on Saturday.

She thanked the doctors for taking care of her and hoped patients benefit from the donation.

"All #Covid19 recovered people can be a part of this trial, to help others covid patients recover! I hope this works #IndiaFightsCorona. They even gave me a certificate and Rs 500. Wont lie, I felt super cool today (sic)," she added.

Zoa, along with her sister Shaza and father, producer Karim Morani had tested positive for coronavirus in April. All three were discharged from the hospital after testing negative last month.
