MIA Wasikowska says Johnny Depp has prepared her for the wash of fame that’s about to greet her.The actress — who stars opposite Depp in the new Tim Burton picture Alice in Wonderland — admires how the Pirates of The Caribbean star has remained so grounded.“I think Johnny does it by setting an example,” says Mia, who plays Alice in the film.“I am trying to anticipate what is about to happen to me,” she added. “I think I will take it as it comes, and act accordingly.”Mia — who’s from Canberra, Australia — recently admitted she wishes she could have spent more time filming with Johnny.“For a lot of the film Alice is three-inches tall and she’s on the Mad Hatter’s hat or on his shoulder or in his pocket,” she said last month. “For scenes like that we shot separately.“I would shoot my stuff then Johnny would shoot his which was a real pain. Eventually they did work our a way we could shoot some scenes together but it was very frustrating because Johnny i

Though almost delayed by a decade and dozen films, Karan Johar touches the now-traditional theme of the aftermath of 9/11 and the victimized Muslim with simplicity and sensitivity in My Name is Khan . Within the range that the global-issue offers, the film still doesn’t attempt to go out of the world in its treatment, resorting to the regular conflicts already exploited in the genre.But where Karan Johar succeeds is in making Shah Rukh Khan underplay his character like never before and mellow down the human drama with so much positivity that a film with a backdrop as intense as 9/11 ends up being feel-good. Just to give an instance of the optimism, when the naive autistic protagonist is given cold treatment in a torture cell, he offers to repair the air conditioner.So you have Rizvan Khan (Shah Rukh Khan) suffering from what Dustin Hoffman experienced in Rainman – autism or more specifically Asperger Syndrome. He is intelligent enough to comprehend situations but too innocent to

Ghostbusters III, is about to be released, like a million years after the sequel in the 90s. According to rumors around the movie mill, Bill Murray said:”“I said to [the people involved with the Ghostbusters 3], ‘I’ll do it if you kill me off in the first reel.’ So now they are going to have me as a ghost in the film.”According to Imdb.com, the cast remains relatively unchanged from the first two. Ernie Hudson, Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis are all confirmed for the film. Scary Movie persona Anna Faris and Buffy The Vampire Slayer’s Eliza Dushku are listed as rumored. They still have yet to announce who will be playing Weaver’s son, Oscar, in the film.I ain’t ‘fraid of no ghost…

Creating the most successful film in Bollywood history should, surely, be an excuse for breaking into song — preferably backed by a troupe of sari-swirling dancers. Instead, the achievement has spawned an ugly row between India’s most successful author, one of its most powerful movie moguls and its most bankable leading man.3 Idiots, which was released on Christmas Day, is based on Five Point Someone, a book by Chetan Bhagat, whose depictions of India’s outsourcing generation have made him one of the world’s most widely read writers.The film, a satire of the country’s university system, has taken £41 million in 18 days, becoming the highestearning Indian film to date. A strong performance overseas — it is also the first Hindi film to earn more than $5 million at American theatres — has bolstered hopes that Bollywood, dwarfed commercially by Hollywood, may finally be on its way to achieving success in the West.Back on the sub-continent, however, the film’s success has b

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - The science-fiction blockbuster “Avatar” won best drama at the Golden Globes and picked up the directing honor for James Cameron on Sunday, raising the “Titanic” filmmaker’s prospects for another Academy Awards triumph.It was a repeat of Cameron’s Globes night 12 years ago, when “Titanic” won best drama and the directing prize on its way to dominating the Oscars.This time, though, instead of being “king of the world,” as Cameron declared at the Oscars, he has become king of an alien landscape, elevating space fantasy to enormous critical acclaim.”‘Avatar’ asks us to see that everything is connected, all human beings to each other, and us to the Earth. And if you have to go four and a half light years to another, made-up planet to appreciate this miracle of the world that we have right here, well, you know what, that’s the wonder of cinema right there, that’s the magic,” Cameron said.Winning the dramatic-acting honors were Sandra Bullock for the football tale “Th

Recently, Akshay Kumar had a very severe back pain for which he had to cancel his shoot. Usually, Akshay Kumar is very dedicated to his work and hardly cancels his shoot. But the pain took over his head and he was bound to cancel his shoot for his own production, Patiala House.Akki has been working non-stop for Nikhil Advani’s film at Mehboob studio and has acquired the back pain during an action sequence. A source reveals, “Since he performs stunts on his own, it takes a greater toll on the back. And he’s had a back problem for a really long time. The pain wasn’t getting any lesser. Akshay decided to call it a wrap and rest for the day. The doctor advised the actor physiotherapy and adequate rest.”Since he is the producer of the film, he doesn’t mind taking a break but he has the record of carrying shooting for other producers in the past even in the adverse condition. Confirms Nikhil Advani, “Yes, Akshay hurt his back while shooting. His back got strained earlier in the day durin
