Bollywood has had its fair share of star siblings and films based on the bhai-bahen rishta. Lately, however, films have started concentrating less on the brother-sister relationship, except for a stray Josh or My Brother Nikhil.
And what better way to celebrate Raksha Bandhan than with a quiz on the sibling factor in Hindi films?
1. Which Vivek Oberoi-starrer did his sister Meghna sing a song in?
a. Masti
b. Kisna
c. Saathiya [Images]

Wrong!
The correct answer is A.
Did you know? The song Saiyanji baiyan chhudake from Masti was sung by three singers: Gayatri Iyer (wife of Bheege hoth tere singer Kunal Ganjawala), Sneha Pant and newcomer Meghna Oberoi. As children, Vivek and Meghna were very close. Meghna says Vivek was the macho man who would threaten anybody who even looked at her in school. In fact, Vivek even had spies following her around.
But as the years went by, he loosened up. He even taught her how to sit when she wore a short skirt or how to handle a low-neck top.

Wrong! The correct answer is A.
Did you know? My Brother Nikhil was inspired by a real incident. It took debutant director Onir only 10 days to make the first draft of the script. Sanjay Suri, who played Nikhil, was convinced about the film and they started putting together the rest of the cast and finance. The producers or financiers wanted changes in the script, and that did not suit the makers.
That's when Sanjay decided to put in some finance himself and look for private funding from friends and well wishers. When Raj Kaushal and Vicky Tejwani heard about the project, they also showed interest. Thus, Four Front Films was launched backed by four producers -- Sanjay Suri, Raj Kaushal, Vicky Tejwani and Onir.
