With only a day to go before the release of one of the biggest movie of the year, here are few very interesting facts related to the making of the movie

The first story draft of Om Shanti Om was written by Farah Khan on Andrew Lloyd Webber’s letterhead. Farah had gone to London for the Bollywood-themed musical, Bombay Dreams, in 2002 and was staying in Andrew’s house. She penned down her thoughts on his letterhead. But she made Main Hoon Naa before Om Shanti Om. The complete screenplay, except for some portions was written by Farah in two weeks flat

Shahrukh Khan who plays a struggling actor in the movie in the first half apparently fights a tiger while trying to impress Deepika. He tells her that he is a rising star from the South Indian film industry and that his name is Omswami. His favourite line in the film is 'Atti Patti Katti'. The scene was canned in Bombay's Film City. Shahrukh Khan also plays a superhero ‘Mohabbatman’ in the film and rescues Malaika Arora. Mohabbatman, like superheroes, wears his underwear over his tights! However, the super villain wears his underwear inside his tights

31 stars including Shahrukh make a special appearance in the Deewangi song including Rani Mukherjee, Preity Zinta, Rekha, Jeetendra, Ritesh Deshmukh, Aftab Shivdasani, Shabana Azmi, Kajol, Priyanka Chopra, Shilpa Shetty, Arbaaz Khan, Amrita Arora, Vidya Balan, Juhi Chawla, Saif Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Salman Khan, Mithun Chakraborty, Dharmendra, Tusshar Kapoor, Karisma Kapoor, Tabu, Urmila Matondkar, Sunil Shetty, Govinda, Bobby Deol etc. Nobody charged Shah Rukh anything for making an appearance in the Deewangi song. Everybody did the song gratis. Knowing Shah Rukh Khan, he sent each of the stars who made a special appearance in the film, a gift hamper. The gift hamper had stuff like a Tag Heur watch, a Nokia mobile phone and other items.

Farah Khan was keen on having Dev Anand in the Deewangi song, however, the actor declined the offer as he never does special appearances. Dev Anand explained that till date, he has always played lead roles and he did not wish to break his tradition by doing something like this. He therefore politely declined the offer, gave regards to Shah Rukh Khan and gave his best wishes to SRK and Farah for their film. Sridevi is another actress who refused to be a part of the song because she wanted to appear in the song with husband Boney Kapoor. But since the song had actors and actresses only and not their spouses or film producers and directors, she could not be accommodated.

Before Vishal-Shekhar stepped in to compose the music for the movie, A R Rahman was signed for the music composition. The reason why A R Rahman opted out of this film was that he wanted the music rights to stay with the Composer and the Lyricist along with the producer, something which Farah and Shah Rukh Khan didn’t agree with.

Farah Khan convinced a veteran music director Pyarelal to come off his self-imposed exile from the current film music scene to compose a song for Shah Rukh Khan's Om Shanti Om. The song was created in nine shifts spread over three days. And in LP style the song's recording happened with a 150-plus orchestra, a rarity in today's age of digitally-arranged music making. 40-45 different drums ranging from tabla and dhol to duff, 40 plus violins and 22 woodwinds amongst other instruments were used for the song

Farah Khan also approached Aamir Khan to make a special appearance in the Deewangi song but he pleaded inability to shoot. He was busy with the shooting of Taare Zameen Par and his participation in the song would have delayed his film and, in turn his new film, the Ghajini remake too. Anil Kapoor also did not agree to become a part of the song. Anil feared that he would be made fun of, on the sets. Also, Anil didn’t feel like being one among so many actors!

Sanjay leela bhansali may be keeping a mum on the plot of his movie Saawariya, but Farah khan doesn't want to keep any secrets as she has revealed the plot of the movie literally.As we all know that the movie is based in 1970's, and is on the theme of Reincarnation but now you will all know what Om shanti Om is all about

Set in 1970, Om Shanti Om is about a junior artist and his unspoken love for a top actress (Deepika) who in turn loves a Bollywood mogul (Arjun Rampal in a negative role). Although Deepika is aware of SRK’s feelings she doesn't reciprocate. But one night when Arjun decides to take advantage of Deepika, she resists and a furious Arjun stabs her. Shah Rukh witnesses the scene and tries to save her, but gets stabbed in the bargain. While dying Deepika finally reveals that she also loved Shah Rukh and in true Romeo and Juliet style the unfortunate lovers die in each other’s arms. This is perhaps Farah's tribute to the memorable climaxes of Ek Duje Ke Liye and QSQT.

Fast forward to 2007 and a reincarnated SRK is a top musician with the world swooning over him. Deepika on the other hand plays the regular college-going sweetheart (bit like Tina Munim in Karz). Of course just like Karz and Karan Arjun SRK keeps hallucinating about his past life leading to an Ek Hasina Thi like musical climax where an aged Arjun (stepping into Simi Garewal's shoes) comes face to face with the couple. There is also a tribute to the legendary song in the climax.

Interestingly Farah also does a John Jaani Janardhan (Naseeb) with SRK (doing a Bachchan yet again!) where the actor dances with all the top stars of Bollywood.

Farah khan's Om Shanti Om has a special song in which all the big names of bollywood are going to make special appearance, from Amitabh bachchan to Salman khan almost everyone had done shooting.

But, when Farah khan approached Aamir khan to make a special appearance, she was in for a rude shock.Aamir khan immediately refused citing that he is too busy

It seems that Aamir khan has a sharp memory, When SRK was offered to do a cameo in Rakesh mehra's Rang de basanti he refused to be the second fiddle to Aamir khan
and now Aamir khan has returned the compliment

This has once again proved that there is no love lost between the two khans, and its obvious that we won't be seeing them in any future movie which is a shame as lot of fans would like to see them together in a movie

Tu daal daal

Main paat paat

This seems to be the mantra for Farha khan, after the starcast of movie Saawariya made their presence at Star voice of india show to promote their movie, it was the turn of the team of OM SHANTI OM to do their little jig, and what better than a rival show, Saaregamapa. The three Mega Finalists perform to the songs from the movie OM SHANTI OM, to the delight of Vishal Shekhar who have given the music for the movie












As we all know both the movies will be releasing on same date, and their is no love lost between the directors of both the movies, Sanjay leela bhansali and Farha khan's
grudge goes way back, it all started from Vidhu vinod chopra's 1942 a love story, where both of them wanted to take credit of the songs direction
Although, there was believe to be a truce between the two when SRK worked in Devdas, but now all seems to have lost and they are ready to clash at box office and nobody wants to leave any stone unturn to outdo each other

Farah khan is not going to leave any stone unturn to make her movie the biggest blockbuster of the year.As, we all know that Om Shanti Om is a Star studded affair, having stars like Saif ali khan, Sanjay dutt, Salman khan, Amitabh bachchan and many more.They all will be featuring in a much hyped about song sequence

Now, it has become even bigger and better as Stars like Hrithik, Akshay, and Abhishek have agreed to do a little cameo but they won't be featuring in that song.Why aren't the three part of the famed song? “In the film, the three are the final contenders for the Filmfare Best Actor Award and since they lose the award to SRK, it would look odd if we showed them sing and dance in the post-awards celebration party-song,” she clarifies.

Meanwhile, SRK and Farah have decided to launch the music of the film with pomp and gaiety on 18th September at a suburban hotel.

On the personal front, Farah has started supervising the post-production work from the cool comforts of her home and there's a valid reason for it. Farah and husband Shirish Kunder are going to become parents soon -- Farah is expecting triplets.

The tag line of the Movie says

for some love stories.......
one life time is not enough

Farah khan hasn't fallen to the trap of making women oriented movies or meaningful cinema just like her other female counterparts.She likes full time masala maar ke kick ass movies and that is exactly what she has done with her new venture Om shanti Om, starring her favourite shahrukh, who is also the producer, and introducing Deepika padukone
If you are wondering why the movie called OM SHANTI OM
, and it has nothing to do with that song Om Shanti Om from Karz, it is because the story is about Om shanti and Om.Om is a junior artist struggling to make it big in movies, who is deeply in love with Shanti who happen to be the superstar, but om fails to win his true love as he tragically dies but the story doesn't end there, Shahrukh khan is reborn and becomes the superstar that he always wanted to be in his previous life, and he does get his true love in this life, of course shanti is now old and not a superstar that she once was...........

The story of the movie sounds pretty interesting and original, but the screenplay and the direction is the key to the success of any movie, everything else is secondary

Deepika Padukone - A Brief Look at her modelling Career

Deepika padukone's biography-I got this from her Fan site

Deepika Padukone, born 1986, is an Indian supermodel. She is also the daughter of former World badminton Champion Prakash Padukone.
Deepika has had modelling appearances in print and television advertising campaigns for Liril soap, Close-Up toothpaste and Limca, receiving many prestigious modelling offers, including brand ambassadorship of the Jewels of India, an annual jewellery exhibition. She hit the international scene when Maybelline made her their new international cover face.

At the fifth annual Kingfisher Fashion Awards, for Indian models and designers, she was awarded the title of Model of the Year. Shortly afterwards, she was chosen as one of the models for the Kingfisher Swimsuit Calendar for 2006, thus cementing her reputation as a supermodel. She also bagged two trophies at the Idea Zee F Awards in 2006 - Female Model of the year (Commercial Assignments) and Fresh Face of the year.Like many successful models before her Deepika is turning to acting in Bollywood. She started by starring in the music video for "Naam Hai Tera," a song from the pop album Aap Ka Suroor, an independent album by popular Bollywood singer-composer Himesh Reshammiya.Deepika recently made her cinematic debut in a Kannada film, Aishwarya, directed by Indrajit Lankesh. Her co-stars in the movie is top Kannada hero Upendra. The film has already been successful at the box-office, and Deepika has received reviews which praise her for her great screen presence. Reportedly, she has also signed on three Hindi movies - Priyadarshan's forthcoming film, Pirate, Farah Khan's second directorial venture, Om Shanti Om and Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Delhi 6. All three are slated for a 2007 release.

However, Deepika has categorically denied ever having met Priyadarshan, and claims she is not doing his film. Khan's and Mehra's films, however, seem very much on the anvil, though she is reluctant to talk about them with the press and won't confirm or deny developments. Deepika was also signed a Tamil film opposite Surya entitled Vaaranam Aayiram to be directed by Gautham Menon but backed out at the last moment as the dates required for the film were clashing with Om Shanti Om.
