Romance and rains make a special combination. Remember the classic romance of legendary Raj Kapoor and Nargis in the song “Pyaar Hua Ikrar Hua Hai” filmed number of decades ago. Though the times have changed but Bollywood can’t get away with its habit of romancing in the rain. Recently, the serial kisser Emraan Hashmi romanced model turned actress Humaima Malick under the pools of rain, while filming the song “Tere Ho Ke Rahenge” for ‘Raja Natwarlal‘.

The steamy track “Tere Ho Ke Rahenge” visualizes Emraan sharing cozy moments with Humaima at the backdrop of vibrant scenic beauty of a rain-kissed atmosphere. The cinematography is blissfully shot under the storms of rain, where the lead pair looks fully drenched in love.

The melodious track is sung by Arijit Singh and penned by lyricist Irshad Kamil. The conman tale ‘Raja Natwarlal‘ hits the theatres on August 29.

We earlier reported about the vibrant first look poster of upcoming film ‘Tamanchey‘ and now, the movie has unveiled its second poster. ‘Tamanchey‘ stars Nikhil Dwivedi and Richa Chadda in the lead roles.

Like the first one, the second poster also oozes colours and presents the lead characters in striking poses with guns in their hands. The stars are wearing funky outfits and Nikhil is standing, while Richa seems all set for an action. The movie talks about two outlaws, who have their own causes to be on a run. Though initially they doubt each other, eventually the duo falls in love. The second poster too depicts the tagline “Pyar Mein Dil Pe Maar De Goli”, which hints at the film to be a quirky entertainer.

‘Tamanchey‘ will open on September 19.

It seems Emraan Hashmi has taken his ‘Raja Natwarlal‘ conman character too seriously. After selling fake ‘Kick‘ tickets outside Mumbai’s Gaiety Galaxy theatre, he recently conned Kunal Deshmukh‘s assistant director (AD), who herself was part of the film. Yet, she was disguised by Emraan’s prank.

As per the source, in a scene Emraan’s ‘Raja Natwarlal‘ character had to pull out a small con in a supermarket, for which Kunal’s assistant was given Rs 5,000 that she was meant to hand it to Emraan before the shot and then take it back. But this notorious actor disappeared with the cash, leaving the assistant director in mess.

Later, Emraan kept hold on his words saying that he has returned the money to AD, which she denied. He did not disclose this prank till the end of the day and kept straight faced. While this whole situation made everyone confuse, poor AD was reduced to tears. Finally, at the end of the day he confessed his prank and returned her the money.

Emraan’s prank diary suggests that if he wouldn’t have been an actor; he would have definitely chosen conman’s profession!

With the release of the action-extravaganza ‘Kick‘, one can say that the tiger is back to claim his territory. Salman Khan once again proved himself the man of all reasons and the man of all seasons by delivering stylish dare-devil performance in ‘Kick‘.

The power-packed star cast like Salman Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Randeep Hooda and Nawazuddin Siddiqui is enough to take the box office by storm.
