Southie-dadi, I was thinking the same thing! My school friend’s an actress in Hyderabad who might actually love to blog about her life there. She’s done some telugu films on location in London in freezing november in mini-skirts… you have to admire their enthusiasm. I’m dying to go. Some people hold wedding parties in the 5-star hotels inside… Hotel Tara and Sitara.

Come on man, you did not think they were... Damn, I feel the same way I felt when I told my neighbours kid about Santa.

Dude, you still believe in Santa.

great to see you here Karthik.

All film cities rock. I visited the MGR film city years ago…….and it was pretty neat. Whole village sets, right adjacent to a city “market” set…..

Could Wild West Factory have been the location for the ever entertaining Mukkala Mukkabla of Kadhalan (Humse Hi Muqabla for the Hindi version)? I have to confess, I spent countless hours recreating Prabhu Deva’s unbelievable contortions…especially the one where he pulls his shoulder pad and the corresponding-side leg slides in. I’m the only one? Darn.

i thought that i was the only one who got sucked into going to ramoji film city — went to hyderabad for a dear friend’s wedding and a trip there turned into part of the wedding festivities.. how you ask? not entirely sure to this day. but honestly, once you’ve been there you’ll notice scenes from that place cropping up in all kinds of movies and tv shows, it really is quite popular.

by contrast — i went to some of the shooting of bunty aur babli, and was shocked to see them shooting scenes right in the middle of downtown benares, lucknow, kanpur… the director, shaad, wanted authentic shots, even if it meant holding back massive crowds to finish a scene. but according to everyone on the set his choice to shoot “on-location” is very very rare these days. ramoji film city and other film cities remain popular despite how silly it can look.

the least you could have done is remove Bipasha's name from the list.

Come on man, you did not think they were...

(OK, visualize this : hands on both ears, and head shaking from side to side) Nana, nana, na, na! Nana, nana, na, na!

Repeat after me - "They are real, and they are spec..tacular!"

(Stomps his feet and storms out)

Now I shall go back to my fantasies about all these fine ladies, unspoilt by the revealations here.

Oh well, at least the girls are real. Or so I thought, until I came across this. (from the Indian Express Online.)

You are sad that your dreams are shattered but did you have to go ahead and ruin it for the rest of us. What good can come of this slanderous post. The least you could have done is remove Bipasha's name from the list.
