AMEESHA PATEL WILL NOW BE SEEN IN ITEM NUMBERS

Ameesha Patel who debuted as the sweet girl next door with megahit ‘Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai’ went for a sexy makeover in ‘Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic’ but the film failed to create magic at the box office. The girl who is going downhill in her career has quite a handful of offers to look forward to. She is a part of ‘Race 2’ and is also playing the lead role of a high profile prostitute in another project.

Ameesha impressed both fans and producers alike by her fabulous performance at the recent Apsara awards. The performance was definitely commendable given the fact that she managed the dance with one day’s practice on seductive numbers like Chikni Chameli and Ooh La La on the stage. Praises came showering on her both from the organisers at Wizcraft and even Yash Chopra personally.

As such, the actress is now very keen to do item numbers in not only her own productions but also for other banners.

The actress is also getting praises for her looks and well-maintained figure. The directors of Race – Abbas and Mustan – recently told her that when they saw her on the sets of Race 2, they felt that she had done a wonderful job of maintaining herself over the years.

SANJAY DUTT IN A NEW LOOK IN "CHATUR SINGH TWO STAR"

Ameesha Patel is ecstatic about her return on the big screen with Sanjay Dutt in CHATUR SINGH TWO STAR. Playing a Mumbai cop, Dutt is shown as someone who is a big fan of spies and is pretty well read on all the famous spy thrillers ever written in different parts of the world. In fact he has also been given a peculiar look that takes a huge departure from the suave persona that he carries and instead lands him in stupidity zone.

'Yeah, you will fall in love with Sanju's look in the film,' laughs Ameesha, 'When I saw him for the first time in that get up, I was amazed. It is so funny and comical. Hats off to Sanju for first agreeing to do a part like this and then managing to carry off his look so well. I am sure audience would have huge bouts of laughter just on seeing the kind of personality that Sanju is carrying in the film.'

While Ameesha seems to be quite happy talking about her much senior co-star here, one wonders what exactly does she get to do in the film. After all she has been missing on the scene for quite a while and one would expect nothing but something really remarkable from the pretty woman out here.

'Well, I am playing the character of Sona who gets caught in a scam by default. The only person in the world who believes her is Chatur and goes all out to help her out,' informs Ameesha, 'This leads to a series of funny incidents involving both of us. We have largely shot this film in South Africa, something that has also lent a visual appeal to the whole comical drama. Locations out there are so stunning.'

Also starring Anupam Kher, Gulshan Grover, Satish Kaushik and Suresh Menon in principal roles, CHATUR SINGH TWO STAR is directed by Ajay Chandok and releases all over on 19th August.

AMEESHA PATEL TO START 2 BIG MOVIES

Ameesha's dil maange more! After confirming her plans to turn producer and roping in David dhawan to direct a film for her, she is now all set to make another big announcement where she would be kick-starting another film soon. Resultantly a big director has been signed for her second production, the details of which would be made public before end of this month. Ameesha is all excited about the plans and is quite sure that along with these two filmmakers, she would be ready to make GADAR all over again. As expected, she would be playing the lead in both the films.

'Incidentally she has worked with both of these directors in the past. While David Dhawan has directed her in YEH HAI JALWA, even this other director has called the shots for her. She was in constant touch with both her directors and once she expressed her desire to turn a producer, both of them readily agreed,' informs a friend of Ameesha.

Ameesha too confirms this piece of information but wants another fortnight for herself before she makes the declaration. 'All I can say as of now is that I would be playing the lead in both the films. I am happy to find myself in this space all over again where I am making quality films that boast of good storylines. KAHO NAA PYAAR HAI, HUMRAAZ, GADAR, MANGAL PANDEY - Hallmark of all these films was they were content based and well made. My next films would follow the same core principles as well,' says Ameesha who was last seen on the big screen three years ago in THODA PYAAR THODA MAGIC.
