What were some of the most difficult scenes to film in Hindi movies?

-
Almost everyone in bollywood that has worked with Mr. Sanjay Leela Bhansali would agree that it is quite exhausting to work with him. One such actor is Ranbir Kapoor.
Everyone remembers this scene:
That famous towel scene from Ranbir Kapoor’s first film.
Apparently, the two shots where he has to drop that towel took about 2 days and over 100 takes to shoot and it almost broke Ranbir Kapoor’s back.
Here’s what Ranbir Kapoor said in an interview with Anupama Chopra[1] :
I started with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and he doesn’t do anything less than 45 takes. So even if I have to turn my head, I probably will have to give 50 takes. In Jabse Tere Naina, I had to roll back in a certain way and the towel had to fall and my leg was showing and it was one shot where I had to get up and sing. He is very particular about what beat you catch; he is a very musical director. I did 45 or 50 takes one day and my back really broke and out of sympathy he said, ‘Okay I’ll manage’. The next morning, he said he hasn’t got it and I had to do another 70 takes. So now when somebody takes eight takes, ten takes, it’s nothing.

What do astronauts think about the movie Interstellar?

-
A few days ago, a group of us from SpaceX took the afternoon off to watch Christopher Nolan’s ‘Interstellar’. We loved it. Then again, we don’t get out very often. We probably could have sat through ‘Gigli’ and loved it. As for myself, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, but there were a few things that struck me as inaccurate. First and foremost – the casting.  I mean, is it really necessary to fill every astronaut movie with actors like Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, George Clooney, Sandra Bullock, Tom Hanks, and Kevin Bacon? How am I supposed to live up to that? I’m only 5 foot 5 inches tall, for crying out loud! Once, just once, can’t someone make a blockbuster space action-adventure movie starring Paul Giamatti or Wallace Shawn? Please? There were lesser flaws worth noting. (Spoilers follow!) For example, there is no way a big government bureaucracy like NASA has a meeting with less than a dozen participants. Secondly, as with many movies that depict artificial gravi

Well I can’t say that they are dark secrets but yes they are some most unknown secrets. So let’s begin - A state level player - Padukone was a state level badminton player turned model and a top level Bollywood star, who is presently pursuing acting career in Hollywood. Why Deepika Padukone rejected Diana Penty's role in 'Cocktail'? Deepika totally nailed the role of Veronica and fans lauded her performance in the movie and agreed that no one except for Deepika could’ve done it better. However, it wasn’t Veronica’s role which DP was initially offered by the makers. According to initial reports, the actress was offered both the roles – i.e Meera and Veronica. But, since Deepika’s character in ‘Love Aaj Kal’ was similar to that of Meera in ‘Cocktail’, she decided to go ahead with Veronica. Later on, Diana came on board and beautifully played Meera in the film. Early life Did you know that Deepika Padukone was born in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark?
