Month: September 2014

Everything has an expiry date. And here is end to the partnership between Dinesh Vijan and Saif Ali Khan, as the former walks out of the production house Illuminati Films.

The reason behind their split is since four years, the duo had creative difference and had decided to part their ways just after ‘Agent Vinod‘ went flat at the box-office. But when their co-production ‘Lekar Hum Deewana Dil‘ faced the same destiny, they amicably decided to call it off.

In the recent media, Saif confirmed the news saying though it is sad to part ways with a friend more than a partner but still they are happy to be in their own space. As they don’t have to share the control, now he is free to produce the films he believes in and Dinesh can go ahead with the subjects he strongly feel about.

Saif and Dinesh met during the filming of Homi Adajania‘s ‘Being Cyrus‘ in 2007 and went up building a production house together. But now after their split Illuminati Films will be only Saif Ali Khan‘s company, while Dinesh will head his company Maddock Films.

With the immense joy, our Bollywood stars brought Lord Ganesha to their house. They celebrated every moment when God was residing at their place. And after five days with heavy heart, they bid goodbye to him. Here is the update of Ganpati visarjan from B-Town.

To start with the veteran actor Jeetendra, after five days of celebration he was going to immerse his Ganpati by around 6:30 in the evening on September 2. But his pandit recommended him to not to take out the idol from his house on Tuesday. As according to Hindu beliefs, Tuesday happens to be Lord Ganesha’s day. Therefore, he performed the aarti with his family and placed the God in the flower decorated tempo. It’s in the midnight; the family carried the procession of immersion at Juhu beach.

Same was the scenario at Rishi Kapoor‘s Pali Hill Bungalow Krishna Raj. The Kapoor Khaandan had hosted the Ganpati for five days and then they together performed the last prayers. As Ranbir Kapoor was out of India, he missed the function. Yet his sister Riddhima and niece Samara delighted everyone with their presence. Even they carried out the immersion at Juhu beach, near Sunny Sound Studios.

Upbeat atmosphere was witnessed at Vivek Oberoi‘s Juhu bungalow, where the Oberoi family had invited the entire press fraternity for Ganesh darshan. Earlier they used to host Ganpati for one and a half days, but after a couple of year’s gap they resumed the tradition then hosting it for five days. They started with the immersion process by 5:30 pm on Tuesday with head honk of the family Suresh Oberoi commenced the last aarti with the sound of a conch shell. Vivek walked bare-footed carrying the idol in his hands. Then went up to the knee deep water and handed over the Ganpati to the appointed person to immerse it deep into the sea.
