What: Halla Bol press conference
Where: Film Division, Mahadev Road, New Delhi
When: Januray 8, 2008

New Delhi, Jan 8th 2008: Press Conference for the movie HALLA BOL was at Film Division, Mahadev Road. Darshan Jariwala, Rajkumar Santoshi, Pankaj Kapur & Abdol Samee joined the conference.

Shahid Kapur is on a high these days. After the super successful Vivah and Jab We Met, he has established himself as Bollywood’s newest lover-boy. So what is Sha-K up to now that he has his new found status?

For starters, he has just given his nod for a lavish love story for which Yash Raj Films has approached him, saying that he fell in love with the script itself. The film will be directed by either Aditya Chopra or his close associate Anurag Singh when it goes on the floor in March 2008.

Other filmmakers too are getting in line to have him sign their projects on the dotted line. Not rushing into anything and taking the proper steps in deliberation, he is trying to make sure he chooses the right scripts and is signing up for them.

It also appears that rules are meant to be broken concerning Sha-K. Not in a bad way, but if we remember it wasn’t too long ago when he said he would only do one film at a time. Well my friends…such is not the case any longer. Sha-K is not only readying himself for the YRF project, but also Ken Ghosh’s film, where, we might add, he will be sporting long hair, and his father, actor Pankaj Kapur’s directorial venture.

So now we can finally say with much confidence that Sha-K has arrived and has made his way into Bollywood’s big league. The rest of the big boys like the four Khans (SRK, Aamir, Salman and Saif) just might need to keep a close eye on this one.
