_dsc0315_310The sight of Kapoors entering the Anil Ambani’s party with Prachi Desai once again triggered the scuttlebutt. It is a common knowledge that Prachi is being mothered by Ekta Kapoor ever since she has been discovered by the soap queen. She did not remain mere employee of Balaji Productions but has become more of a family to Kapoors. The family seems to have accepted her presence and on several occasion they have been spotted rejoicing together. However her closeness to the family is still in question. It is undeniable fact that Ekta has been promoting her career so much so that she had also come under the scanner for having being involved in Prachi’s victorious end in one of the popular dance reality show. On the other hand her link-up stories with co-actor and Ekta’s brother Tusshar Kapoor has also been serving grit to rumour mills. As none of the other Balaji actors enjoyed this kind generosity from Ekta the latter can be the reason for their ever-growing proximity.

Take a look at the picture and figure it out yourself, doesn’t she look like one of the Kapoors!

Prachi Desai: Another TV star who made it big break in films, thanks to Ekta Kapoor. Popularly known as Bani from the prime time TV show Kasamh Se, Prachi landed herself a dream debut role opposite Farhan Akhtar in Rock On!!. The film and members of the cast scored big in the award ceremonies, but Prachi failed to cash in on the success of the film. Her next movie Life Partner came a cropper and no one seems to be talking about the Surti teenager anymore. Prachi has however, managed to bag herself another film produced by (who else but) Ekta — Once Upon a Time in Mumbai. It would be interesting to see how she holds her own against Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi and Kangna Ranaut. Oh yes, there’s news that she’s likely to do a film with Rajeev Khandelwal soon!

Bollywood director Dibakar Banerjee says the camera plays a dynamic role in his forthcoming Love, Sex Aur Dhoka (LSD), which is about stories behind sensational headlines. And he is certain the content of the movie and the filmmaking technique will surprise audiences.

"The medium and the technique in the film are as important as the content. That is what will take the audience totally by surprise because they are not used to seeing a film being made this way," said Banerjee said.

"LSD is made with a digital camera and the way camera behaves makes it very different from the other Indian or international cinema. The concept is very new and it will hit the audience right in the beginning. And if the audience can get over that shock in the first 5 or 10 minutes, after that the content will keep them occupied. You will feel the presence of the camera as a dynamic character within the film and not as a recorder of the scenes. It's very dynamic," he said.

There are no known names in the film. Banerjee says he roped in non-actors to give it a real feel.

"To make it 'real' I have used all non-actors because the premise of the film is that it's not a film - it's stolen, found or accidentally acquired footages collected from various parts of the country. And the film is made on stories behind sensational headlines that we keep seeing in newspapers or televisions. We see the headline and then we forget, but there is a story behind every headline."

Asked if he has borrowed the idea from some real incidents, he said: "I don't think fiction is ever free of reality. Whatever is happening around impacts me. And things that happened around us has generated the fiction for the film. You can say that it is in the twilight zone between reality and fiction."

Banerjee's last two films were Khosla Ka Ghosla and Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!, but he has used lip-synched songs and an item number for the first time in Love, Sex Aur Dhoka.

"The film has five songs and for the first time I have incorporated lip-sync songs and an item number. The item number was shot in a weird way because in the film a young inexperienced filmmaker shoots the song. So I had to shoot it like an inexperienced person making lots of stupid mistakes," he said.

Throwing light on the storyline, he said: "In the film, three stories about very strong couples are intricately connected to each other. There are three different cameras that are recording these three couples' lives. And the film shows that by accident we have found those recordings."

Banerjee says that the idea was in his mind even before he made Khosla ka Ghosla.

"I was trying to do LSD before Khosla Ka Ghosla and then again I tried doing it, but then came Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!. I wanted to do a totally different film."

"I was seeing certain things happening in front of my eyes and I am still seeing them. Those incidents had a great impact on me. The issues are extremely important especially in the case of modern urban India," he said.

Does the film carry any message? "I don't think there is any film which doesn't have a message. Even the absolutely scorching, entertaining hit would have a message. It also has a message."
