Whether it was the effect of the chilled out vibe in Goa we don't know, but at the recent shoot for “Rush” in which Emraan Hashmi plays a controversial journalist, the actor was forced to use an Innova for a vanity van, and he didn't twitch an eyebrow! Apparently, due to some miscommunication, the crew had missed out on booking a vanity van for their lead actor, and hit the panic button on realising the faux pas. But, Mr. Cool asked them to keep calm, and made do with the only four wheeler at hand. No filmy airs?

One for dad!

Singer Shaan has decided to bring out his next music album, and one of the highlights will be the remix of his own popular song ‘Naina' written by his father, renowned music composer Manas Mukherjee. The singer has collaborated with creative crowdsourcing firm Talenthouse, which will invite entries online from aspiring DJs, sound engineers and music composers. The winner will not just get due credit, but even get featured in the video. Shaan says it is an emotional decision for him to invite creative across the country as a tribute to his dad.

Work comes first

John Abraham is already learning how difficult it is to wear two hats at the same time. The actor, who was shooting recently for “Shootout At Wadala” as noted gangster Manya Surve, got himself a hairline fracture while doing a stunt. But as producer of the upcoming “Vicky Donor”, he couldn't relax. John had promised he would do a special song for his first film as producer, and reported on schedule for the shoot despite the pain. The best part was that the actor didn't even want to talk about it as he didn't want to sound like a martyr!
