Actress from Pakistan, Meera denies that she ever accused Mahesh Bhatt of ruining her career.

Making a U-turn from her earlier stand accusing director Mahesh Bhatt of ruining her career in Bollywood, actress from Pakistan, Meera, has said that while making the allegations of such nature, she was just joking.

After making these serious charges, Meera now says that she never spoke to anyone on this issue and even if she said something, she was not serious about accusing Mahesh on it.

But despite the fact that Meera has made a clarification on this issue by visiting director’s office, it has not impressed Mahesh in any way. Mahesh said he is not Meera’s boyfriend, whom she can accuse in this manner. He added that Meera was his responsibility during her stay in India and at that time he did not want her to get hurt in any way. Mahesh said that as a good friend, who cared about her, he did not want Meera to go from door to door asking for work in Bollywood.

Mahesh said at a time when he is working day and night for the release of a national from Pakistan and bringing people from both countries together, he has been changed with such malicious accusations by the actress.

Mahesh went on to add that it would have been better if instead of promoting Meera during the days of her struggle, he had slapped her.

Despite not being actively involved in film making any more, Mahesh is associated with some big banners. Meera has now realized that it is more beneficial to make peace with him rather than gain some popularity by making some cheap allegations on him. May be that has made her say that she was not serious about making charges on the director and saying that Mahesh ruined her career in Bollywood.

When the sailors of Russian battleship The Potemkin are given rotten meat by the ship's quartermaster, it's the final straw for the abused crew. Mutiny follows and before long St. Peterburg is in full-scale revolt.

Review
Denied a certificate by the British censors in 1926 and so frowned upon by the government that a distributor who tried to secure the film was "visited" by Scotland Yard, Battleship Potemkin has been seen almost exclusively in this country at film societies and workers' clubs. This is, essentially, the first time it has gone on general release here. Eisenstein's masterpiece is a film that many like to discuss knowledgeably, but surprisingly few have seen.

Don't be put off by the fact that it's an old silent movie or by the highbrow pronouncements that will undoubtedly herald its re-issue. Simply remember that without it the shower scene in Psycho would have been messy but not masterly and Kevin Costner would never have chased a pram down a staircase in The Untouchables.

Potemkin was originally planned as a brief aside in a multi-episode history of the 1905 Russian Revolution. However, bad weather prevented Eisenstein from shooting any other scenes and while on location in Odessa, he became obsessed with the story of the mutiny on board the battleship and the brutal assault on the citizens who came to welcome it into port. From this distance, it's hard to appreciate the effect Potemkin had on contemporary viewers. The complexity was impressive enough, but Potemkin's greatness lay in the fact it proved that symbolic imagery could have the same emotional and intellectual impact on an audience as narrative logic. Cliche perhaps, but cinema never would be the same again. The plate smashing, the fog scene, the Odessa steps massacre and the roaring lion are among the most famous images ever committed to celluloid. If you only ever see one silent, this is the one it should be.

If, as Jon Favreau has suggested, this summer really does turn out to be a blockbuster bloodbath, no one will accuse Michael Bay of not having brought all he can to the fight with Transformers: Dark of the Moon. On the evidence of this first full trailer, he’s loaded up enough robo-crunching, building-destroying, Shia LaBeouf-endangering action to keep fans of the franchise buzzing. Check it out over at Apple.

While it’s impossible to judge whether this third TF pic will keep Bay’s promise of a more streamlined story and less messy/stupid plotting from a promo, that’s not what trailers are really about.

But there are hints of the plot within here, as Frances McDormand’s government wonk risks the wrath of Optimus and the Autobots by finally revealing something that might have been handy to let slip before – astronauts exploring the Moon discovered a crashed Cybertronian spacecraft. Despite the fact that the conflict between Optimus’ crew and the evil Decepticons has long since been brought to Earth, the US government decided not to mention this vaguely important discovery. But when the Decepticons launch an all-out offensive, targeting Chicago, things change quickly.

From the looks of this, loyalties will be tested, massive destruction will be caused and Sam will try to save new girlfriend Carly (especially since she looks like Rosie-Huntington-Whitely). Oh, and we’ll see a behemoth Decepticon and meet Sentinel Prime (who’ll sound like Leonard Nimoy). WATCH TRAILER

The Jack Ryan reboot that's percolating at Paramount has just secured yet another screenwriter: the latest to spin through that revolving door is David Koepp. The franchise guru has reportedly just accepted a seven-figure sum to take a crack at Tom Clancy's super-spy. Paramount must be hoping that his draft will be the last.

The initial plans to have Chris Pine in front of Jack Bender's cameras a couple of months ago obviously came to nothing, with the studio opting to back-burner the project pending a workable script. It's been a particularly tough nut to crack. Hossein Amini (The Four Feathers) started the ball rolling back in 2008, before newcomer Adam Cozad came aboard charged with retooling his non-Ryan original script, at that time titled Dubai. Then Anthony Peckham (Invictus, Sherlock Holmes) was hired to give it a polish, then Cozad came back, and then Steve Zaillian (Clear and Present Danger) was tasked with a draft, only to get cold feet and pull out again.

Koepp will be providing his million penn'orth while Pine is off aboard the Enterprise again. He's previously been involved with the Spider-Man, Mission: Impossible and Jurassic Park series, but is currently finishing up the stand-alone Premium Rush, which he's also directing.

The basis for the still-untitled Ryan Begins (the mooted Moscow moniker seems to have been abandoned) apparently remains Cozad's story, with Ryan just out of the Marines, before he joins the CIA, working as a financial consultant for a Russian billionaire, and getting framed in a terrorist plot. Despite being based on none of Tom Clancy's novels, it apparently does feature the NATO-exercise helicopter crash mentioned in The Hunt For Red October, which saw Ryan invalided out of the Marine Corps.

Pine will be filming Star Trek 2 in the autumn, with the Jack Ryan shoot now pencilled in for January 2012.

Here are stills from Megan Fox’s upcoming movie Passion Play – The one Mickey Rourke preemptively declared as terrible. – and basing it entirely on these photos alone, her character’s clearly some sort of bird-fetish hooker. Or a fallen angel whose last trick, a humble trumpet player named Joseph (Mickey Rourke), teaches her a special message – from the heart. Slash boner.
