Dancing Queen Madhuri in Aditya Chopra’s next

After Aaja Nachle, Madhuri Dixit is all set to put the screen on fire in Aditya Chopra’s next directorial venture. Madhuri was approached by Aditya Chopra to star in his next flick which is said to be a women centric story.


Aditya Chopra, who was holidaying in the US sometime back, met Madhuri with script at her residence. Madhuri is yet to confirm her views. Besides this, Madhuri is also expected to be doing Prakash Jha’s adaptation of ‘Lolita’ with Ranbir Kapoor.

Rani to Miss Durga Puja

Rani Mukherji is rather unhappy with friend and producer, Aditya Chopra. Going by what happened a few days ago at Yash Raj studios, it seems that, for Aditya, work comes first. Apparently, the production unit of Anurag Sinha's yet-untitled film is scheduled to shoot in Amritsar and Chandigarh during the Durga Puja. As a result, Rani's plans for the Durga Puja with her family have gone kaput. While her family will celebrate the Puja in town, she will be off shooting for Yash Raj's film.

What's more, it didn't help when Rani expressed her displeasure at the prospect of missing out on the Puja, to Adi.

Recently, Rani and Aditya had an argument when Rani requested Adi to change the dates so she could be in town to attend the Puja. But Adi didn't budge and maintained that the schedule was a combination of dates of several actors and no alterations could be made.

Rani has no option but to pack her bags and set off for the shoot. She tried arguing with Adi to give her some time off, but in vain.

Every year, Rani, her parents and brother Raja Mukherji celebrate the Puja in great enthusiasm at the Poddar School Grounds in Santacruz. Last year, in spite of having a hectic shooting schedule, she made sure that she took active part in the celebrations in the city.

This year the Puja is being planned on a more grand scale, and the venue may even be shifted to Vile Parle.
