Well if you thought 2014 was a loaded year for Deepika Padukone, 2015 is no less. The actress was recently spotted shooting for Piku opposite Amitabh Bachchan and is gearing up for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani opposite Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra. She is also working on Imtiaz Ali’s Tamasha opposite ex flame Ranbir Kapoor. Dippy was recently seen shooting for the film at Kolkata airport, in a floral printed top, blue jeans and a yellow sweater.
We couldn’t help but notice RK’s absence from the frame. The two were seen shooting for the first schedule in Corsica and were reportedly together for the next one in Shimla. The third one, however, features Dippy alone with RK nowhere to be seen. Is all well?

Hrithik Roshan is busy prepping up for his next Mohenjo Daro. Ajay Devgn is now busy filming his directorial venture Shivaay and will move on to Milan Luthria's Badshaho after this. But we hear that the two films will clash with each other at box office next year.
Hrithik's Mohenjo Daro was supposed to release in January 2016 along with Ajay's Shivaay but it got pushed due to Hrithik's injury and production delays. Similarly, Ajay has pushed his acting venture because he wants to wrap up his directorial venture first. Both the actors will have no release in 2015 Mohenjo Daro and Badshaho will both release together on August 12, 2016
Initially Mohenjo Daro was clashing with Shivaay and now that the film has been pushed to August 2016, it will be battling for screens with another Ajay Devgn film. Usually, two big films releasing on the same day has always ended up eating each other's businesses but there have also been examples in the past where both the films have worked equally well.

Speaking on using this drone for Baby, Cutting-edge technology has expanded the imagination of filmmakers today. Virtually impossible live-action sequences are now achievable thanks to devices like the Octocopter. Neeraj and I were clear that we wanted a particular sequence in the desert to be as real as possible but the terrain did not permit the use of normal cameras. What we have achieved with the use of this drone was a revelation to all of us
Now that so much has been said about the action sequences by everyone, we are dying to watch the film. But we have until January 23, 2015, which is when the film hits theatres.
Katrina Kaif has bagged yet another plum project. The Dhoom3 babe will be seen opposite the very hot Siddharth Malhotra in Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s next production venture. While rumours about Kat and Sid coming together for a film have been doing the rounds for a while now, we can tell you that Ranbir Kapoor’s ladylove and the Ek Villain actor have indeed sealed the deal with Excel Entertainment. Looks like Ms Kaif is done romancing the Khans and we say so because the leggy beauty is also doing a film with Aditya Roy Kapur remember?We hear Anushka Sharma was initially suppose to do this film but eventually Katrina ended up signing the coveted project. There is something else we bet you’ll don’t know. Well recently the Jagga Jasoos actress and Sidharth even did the look test for their untitled film which is likely to go on floors this year.
While Bollywood will witness many fresh pairings this year, Katrina and Sidharth’s jodi is going to be the one to watch out for. After all not only these two are extremely good-looking but they are talented as well
