Imran_and_KareenaMumbai, Nov 21: Actor Saif Ali Khan is quite excited about his actress wife Kareena Kapoor's upcoming film 'Gori Tere Pyaar Mein' and says she and Imran Khan make a "lovely pair" on screen.

Kareena and Imran are teamed up for the second time after delivering 'Ek Main Aur Ek Tu', which was a hit.

"I am looking forward to the film... It looks good. Imran and Kareena make a lovely pair," Saif said.

Responding to a query, the actor said he and Kareena are ready to act together on screen provided the script is good.

Saif was addressing reporters at a promotional event of his upcoming film 'Bullett Raja', last night. The event, scheduled to begin at 7 pm started at around 9 pm, with lead actors Saif, Sonakshi Sinha and Jimmy Shergill dancing to 'Tamanche Pe Disco'.

In 'Bullet Raja', Saif will be playing the role of a Brahmin gangster while Sonakshi plays a struggling actress. Saif's character in this film reminds of 'Omkara' but the actor disagrees with the comparison.

"Lot of people think my role is same as that was in 'Omkara', but it is not so. I have usually played urban, western guy in films but this role is different. The role I am playing is from the interiors of India," Saif said.

Sonakshi said it was a bit difficult and challenging for her to get the correct Bengali dialect for her character.

The action packed entertainer is set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh-based mafia and deals with the underworld.

"There is a difference between action and violence. There is too much of violence in real world. We have shown gun fights, punches in the film. It is not only sex that is disturbing to watch on screen but blood and violence can also make you feel uncomfortable," Saif added.

Mumbai, Aug 2: Oscar-winning director Alfonso Cuaron has come aboard as an executive producer on filmmaker Chaitanya Tamhane's movie The Disciple. The Marathi feature is set to represent India at the 77th edition of the Venice Film Festival. It will be screened in the Competition section of the prestigious film gala.

The movie, which is Tamhane's follow-up to his National Award-winning feature Court, has also been selected for 2020 Toronto International Film Festival's official line-up.

"I met Chaitanya through a mentorship program where I had the opportunity to watch his very superb debut film, Court  I was immediately impressed by his sense of cinema and fearless confidence to tell stories.

"He was part of most of Roma's process and I jumped to the opportunity to be part of the process of his second film The Disciple. I believe Chaitanya is one of the most important new voices of contemporary cinema," Cuaron said in a statement.

Tamhane said he is honoured to have Cuaron aboard the film.

"It’s a bit surreal and an incredible honour for me to have one of the most recognised and acclaimed filmmakers in the world be part of 'The Disciple'. In some ways, this validation from Alfonso Cuaron is even more," he added.

The Disciple, a 127-minute long feature, stars Aditya Modak, Arun Dravid, Sumitra Bhave, and Kiran Yadnyopavit. It has been produced by “Sir” actor Vivek Gomber through his Zoo Entertainment Pvt. Ltd.

The Disciple marks Tamhane’s return to Venice after he won the Best Film - Orizzonti and Lion of the Future award for Court in 2014.

Court, a poignant commentary on India's judicial system, also won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in 2015 and was India's official entry for the Best Foreign Film at the 2016 Oscars.

Endeavor Content will sell North American rights and New Europe Film Sales boards the film as an international sales agent.

Washington, May 26: Making a slight change to the name of their newborn, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his singer girlfriend Grimes have now named their first child X AE A-Xii.

The difference is only in the numeral part of the name which is now written in the Roman format.

Earlier this month, the celebrity couple hogged headlines for naming their son X AE A-12.

The change in the name came when an Instagram follower of the Canadian singer asked if she had considered changing the name of the child and she replied with, "X AE A-Xii."

However, the performer didn't provide further insight concerning the reason behind the change.

Canadian singer Grimes gave birth to her first child on May 4.

The 32-year-old had earlier taken to Twitter and explained the meaning of the baby's name.
