sunil come back in action 2007-12-04 02:42:00 Actor-producer Suniel Shetty, who exchanged his image for more subtle and comic roles, now wants to go back to action-thrillers. His Popcorn Entertainment is to produce an action-thriller to be directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia. “It’s been a while since I did a full-on action film. So much time has passed since my last stunt-special that people have forgotten that side of me,” Suniel told IANS. “Though my next release Ashwin Dheer’s ‘123′ is again a comedy, let me assure you it’s no ordinary comedy. My next venture with Tigmanshu is an action thriller with a touch of comedy.” Though nobody is giving away the plot, this Tigmanshu Dhulia thriller is supposedly based on the 2004 action film “Paparazzi”, directed by Paul Abascal and featuring Cole Hauser as a film star on a revenge spree.

Khoya Khoya Chand is a noteworthy album. 2007-12-08 23:04:00 The successful composer-lyricist Shantanu Moitra and Swanand Kirkire deliver a fantastic album yet again. After the success of "Parineeta", they present another bouquet of melodious songs in "Khoya Khoya Chand
". This album opens with "Chale aao saiyan". Shreya Ghoshal sings it in a slightly husky voice and it has all the elements of a typical mujara. "Khoya Khoya Chand" shifts the track from 'mujra' to 'qawalli'. Sung by Ajay Jhingran and Swanand Kirkire, it's a great number and sets the right tempo and rhythm. Everything seems to be going great for the song including the music, lyrics and the vocals. It is the highlight of the album. Next is "Khushboo sa" that reminds of "Dil ko hazaar baar" from "Murder" and "Kaisi paheli" from "Parineeta". Hamsika Iyer's sensuous voice does justice to the song. But knowing the audience well, this track won't be a chart buster. After that is the slow and sentimental number "O re paakhi" where Sonu Nigam gives one of his best renditions
