Major flaw in Bajrangi Bhaijaan

Bajrangi Bhaijaan has managed to garner critical acclaim as well as box-office numbers. The film has broken many records both in India and overseas too. However, the film that talks about India-Pakistan relationships, has some major flaws. While the era that the film is set in, hasn't been established in the film, the selfie song indicates that it is set in contemporary times. However, YouTube was blocked in Pakistan following a decision taken by the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority on February 22, 2008 because of the number of "non-Islamic objectionable videos." Considering this, the sequence where Nawazuddin's character is seen using the video sharing site to spread Bajrangi's message seems to be a discrepancy.

While the makers of Bajrangi Bhaijaan seem to be in trouble, read onto know why there is an uncertainty on the release of Phantom...

Kabir Khan is a busy man these days having devoted himself to the promotions of the grand Eid release, Bajrangi Bhaijaan.

However, this has led to the director not being able to take time out for post-production of his next, Phantom, which is locked in for an August 28 release, stated a report on Bollywoodlife.com. A source from the Censor Board has been quoted in the report as saying that the makers reserved time for screening of the film twice, but they didn’t show up. However, the report quoted Kabir as saying that everything was under control and the film will release on the scheduled date.

While Kabir Khan is sure about Phantom’s timely release despite being busy with Bajrangi Bhaijaan, read on to find out why Salim Khan wanted a song from Bajrangi… to be chopped off…

Bajrangi Bhaijaan's celebratory Eid song, 'Aaj ki party...' may well become a rage with youngsters and play at clubs, but Salman Khan's dad, Salim Khan, didn't care for the track when he saw the film at a special screening recently, as reported in Mumbai Mirror. Confirming this, the film's director, Kabir Khan has been quoted in the report as saying that, "It's a party song for Salman's fans to enjoy and we ourselves were undecided about whether to incorporate it in the film's narrative. We attached it to the end credits and that was the cut Salim saab saw. After the show, he told me that the greatness of the film is without the song." Kabir agrees with Salim on the fact that end credit songs have become a disease. "Only some romcoms and love stories can carry them off. I've seen some very good films destroyed by a song at the end. You spend two-hours creating a character who's real and believable and, then, seeing him in garish clothes and dancing merrily destroys the vision," he argues, adding that it's like pouring sugar into your mouth after a good meal because it's sweet. "We don't need sweet," says the director in the report. The only thing not in sync is this promotional song,which will now play only on TV. "As a director, I don't need it. I have enough songs in my film. But it was a marketing call and I understand that a big-budget film needs to keep generating content to create excitement in the audience without impinging on my film," sums Kabir in the report.

While the song will not be included in the film, it will still be used to promote it on all platforms. Read on to know who has sung the song...

Salman Khan is leaving no stone unturned to ensure that his upcoming film, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, is this Eid's big attraction.

Buzz is that Sallu has crooned the Pritam composition. But according to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Mika Singh has lent his voice to the track. The track is penned by Shabbir Ahmed and choreographed by Remo D'souza. Confirming the development, Kabir Khan has been quoted in the report as saying that, "The idea was to come up with a celebratory song for Eid which would not be incorporated in the film. But you will see both Salman and Kareena dancing to the party number in the video."

Salman's promotional video song seems like a good idea to promote the film. Read on to find out which trailer will be attached to Bajrangi Bhaijaan...

Salman divulged that he was so much involved in the film that he never felt the need of glycerin in the scenes which required him to cry, as the emotional dialogues would naturally make his eyes teary. Similarly, he would naturally get angry during the action scenes and comical while shooting for hilarious sequences. However, romantic scenes were a bit difficult for Salman as he said that Saif Ali Khan would come to his mind at such times.
