Rani's scary avatar


Rani MukerjiAfter Urmila Matondkar (Bhoot), Tabu (Hawa) and Isha Koppikar (Darna Mana Hai), it is now Rani Mukerji's turn to see ghosts.

The actress has signed Mukesh Bhatt's next film, which will see her play a corneal transplant patient who begins to see dead people.

Sanjay Gupta's take on love

Sanjay GuptaWhile his big budget Musafir may be making all the noise, director Sanjay Gupta is busy scripting a darker take on relationships. Called Radio Rapchick (Mumbai slang for making love), it is a story about five couples in different stages of unhappiness.

Even Musafir follows a similar, dark theme. A noir drama, the film is about "one unhappy marriage and three unhappy illicit relationships, where the leading lady will play all the men in the movie like an organ," says the director.
