What would it be like to direct a movie with two pretty ladies in the lead, who are in a tiff with each other? Well, if you seek answer on this query, you must ask director Sajid Khan who is struggling hard in making his upcoming venture. The leading ladies of his movie Bipasha Basu and Esha Gupta are having tough times with each other. Esha and Bips were seen together for the first time in the movie Raaz 3, wherein they were seen as sisters who weren’t so fond of each other, and this is happening in the real life too. The actresses are again shooting together in London for Sajid Khan’s next venture and have indulged into a cold war.A source said, “Bipasha feels that she is a much senior actress as opposed to Esha Gupta who is yet to establish herself in the industry. Also, Sajid's fondness for Esha is making Bipasha go green.”The source also says that the two actresses have very different roles, but Sajid is battling with this catfight. The source further added, “Bipasha and Esha behave as if they are the best of friends in front of others but cannot stop bickering about each other to their respective staff.”When the director Sajid was asked about his catfight, he said, “They haven't shot a single scene together. How can you say they don't get along?” Well, there sure is something going on inside which the director doesn’t want to talk about!

It was an over the moon moment when Saif Ali Khan, who is a huge fan of James Bond, heard that he will get to shoot at MI6 building, seen in several Bond films. The MI6 building, located along the river Thames, is the headquarters of the British Secret Intelligence Service. This location has been used only in Bond movies, but not for any Bollywood film. Filmmaker Sajid Khan was the one who manages to get permission to shoot at the building for his forthcoming film Humshakals, which apart from Saif Ali Khan also stars Bipasha Basu, Ram Kapoor, Tamannaah Bhatia, Esha Gupta and Riteish Deshmukh.“Sajid was keen to shoot one of the sequences there as he is fascinated by the building. When he told Saif about it, the actor who loves Bond (remember Agent Vinod), was excited,” revealed sources from the production team.While he enjoyed the shoot thoroughly, there was one hitch. On the day of the shoot, the cast and crew had to climb 14 floors because the lift was under maintenance.Source: TNN   Comments: 0   Views: 164 Category: bollywood  Tags: Saif Ali Khan, James Bond, MI6 building, Sajid Khan, Humshakals, Bipasha Basu, Ram Kapoor
