Priyanka Chopra will do Bhangra if Barfi makes to the finals

Priyanka Chopra is planning to dance to the tunes of Bhangra if the film Barfi makes it to the finals of the Oscars. `If we manage to reach Oscars, I will surely do the Bhangra at the Kodak theatre’. Barfi is the official entry for the Academy Awards from India.
The chirpy Priyanka Chopra was quite confident that there will be the best result for her and the entire unit of the film. There is one reason for Priyanka Chopra to sound so confident. She has received a lot of praise at the Busan Film Festival where the film was also screen. PC was acclaimed for her role tremendously.
The Bollywood actress has been super busy since her debut music album, In My City was launched. Apart from that Bollywood has kept her busy as usual. There were rumors doing the rounds that Priyanka would be seen in Sher Khan starring Salman Khan.
However, Priyanka has made things clear that she hasn’t been approached for the role in the film. But, there are other films like the remake of Zanjeer, Krrish 3 and a couple of other project at her hands currently.

Ranbir Kapoor is too pricy to sign a chocolate brand

Post the success of Bodyguard and Ek Tha Tiger, Salman Khan got pricy. Ranbir Kapoor has followed suit after the success of Barfi. He was to be signed for a chocolate brand. However, he demanded a whopping sum of Rs. 20 crores for the same. It was a humongous sum that made the manufacturers think for the second time.
It was actually a sour experience for the firm who were looking to sign Ranbir Kapoor. They were hopeful that they would be able to sign the star. However, when they heard the price Ranbir was demanding, they were crestfallen. They hadn’t left with any choice at all. Almost reluctantly, they had to let go the Bollywood hero.
There is hardly any doubt that the popularity of Ranbir Kapoor is on the rise. After the success of Barfi, he scaled new heights. That is the reason the firm wanted to have him as the face of their products.
The story does not end here. According to Ranbir Kapoor, he had never been approached to have a deal. A source tells that there are many brand owners who want to sign Ranbir up. However, a deal never fail due to the monitory issues.

Priyanka Chopra charging high fees after Barfi success

It is but natural for the stars to hike their fees after success. Priyanka Chopra and Barfi are no excuse either. Priyanka has reported charged as much as Rs. 1 cores for walking the ramp of a fashion show in Delhi. A fashion show kicks off the next week in the city.
As a matter of fact, Priyanka is the brand ambassador of the show. So, it was pretty much natural for them to approach PC first. However, hearing her demand, it was evident that there would be no further progress with the deal. The designer could not afford such a huge amount to pay to Piggy Chops.
Such celebrities are generally paid around Rs. 30 lakhs for such shows. A whooping amount that is more than three times high was not going to do any good to the show. The organizers had to look for a different celebrity then.
However, a source close to Priyanka has said that the actress was going to leave for Los Angles in a couple of days. So there was no way she would walk the ramp.

Barfi might not have a sequel at all


These are the days of sequel. Even the sequel of Mr. India is likely to crop up next year. Barfi however, looks to be an exception to the rule it seems. Anurag Basu might never consider making a sequel to Barfi. However, the character depicted by Ranbir Kapoor might not die so soon.
According to a source, Anurag Basu has decided against the sequel to Barfi. He is in fact against the idea. It looks like Mr. Basu has some other plans instead. He is thinking of keeping the character alive in the print format. He has even kept the option of the small screen open to him.
A TV series in the animation form cannot be overruled. He has said that there will be more to Barfi than just the film. But, what exactly it will be, that is still not known. However, he said that the producers are free to do the sequel if they wish in the same way as the Bhatts did the sequel to Murder.

Priyanka Chopra ready for tough roles

When on one hand Parineeti Chopra is waiting with her fingerscrossed for her next assignment, her cousin Priyanka Chopra is hogging all the limelight. Her role in the upcoming film Barfi and the film itself is the talk of the town. That is one thing that will be looked up to by the fans as well as the critics.
But, coming back to the roles that Priyanka wishes, she is ready for facing tougher challenges in the acting field. She plays the character of an autistic girl in the film. When she was asked about this role, she quipped, ‘Whichever role is the toughest, bring it to me, I'll do it’.
The character is there in the film to spread the meaning of remaining happy in life whatever be the situation. It is something like Ranbir Kapoor, who is happy in spite of being dumb and deaf. The film is there to spread the word about the philosophy of being happy and not worrying.

Priyanka Chopra’a Barfi hairstyle inspired by Sachin Tendulkar?

Hey, if you think this is how Sachin Tendulkar might have looked in a female avatar, hold on. She is indeed a lady and not a female version of the great batsman. It is actually the look of Priyanka Chopra in her upcoming film Barfi. If you have mistaken this photo as a work of morphing, there is nothing like that. 
Barfi is Anurag Basu’s next film in which Priyanka is doing the lead role. To get the right kind of look, Priyanka is said to have met quite a fair number of children. However, the look wasn’t just clicking. This is when the look of Sachin came forward.
Priyanka plays the character of Jhilmil. The first words that came Priyanka’s mind were “Aila, I look like Sachin!” “Aila” is the exclamation that has become synonymous with Sachin Tendulkar.
