Tanu Weds Manu Has Decent Weekend

Tanu Weds Manu had a decent weekend of around 11 crore nett. The  breakdown was 3.30 crore nett on Friday, 4.10 crore crore nett on Saturday and 3.50-3.75 crore nett on Sunday (Early Estimate).

The film lost around 1 crore nett on Sunday due to the cricket match. East Punjab has scored very well with 1.50 crore nett and so has delhi/UP with around 3 crore nett.

The week can finish anywhere in the 15-18 crore nett range depending on Monday but trending at prime centres allowing for cricket suggests it should finish towards the higher end of the range.

Trust Salman Khan to go a step further in helping a friend in need and this was again proved when Kangna Ranaut, who plays female lead in upcoming ‘Tanu Weds Manu’, approached mercurial super star of Hi-Fi (Hindi Film Industry). Sallubhai not only gave her tips on promoting flicks but also called up the head honchos of some television channels from Bangkok to help out the sexy siren. Kangna Ranaut, who is also in Bangkok shooting for her own flick, was overwhelmed by the gesture of macho Khan.

Sources say that Kangna Ranaut and Salman Khan were staying in the same hotel in Bangkok and would often bump into each other. It was during one of such chance meetings that Kangna brought out the matter of promoting her upcoming ‘Tanu Weds Manu’, which was very close to her heart. Salman patiently head out Kangna and then proceeded to give some success mantra to the sexy lady. And these mantras were the same that the macho Khan had utilized for the success of his last blockbuster ‘Dabangg’.

‘Tanu Weds Manu’ stars R Madhavan and Kangna Ranaut in the lead. However, Salman Khan’s cameo in the film has been removed from the final edited version of the product. It’s strange na!!

But then the people who know Salman Khan swear that he had always been like that and never hurt anyone intentionally. The same goes for Kangna too.

Earlier, there the industry was abuzz that Salman Khan was furious with Kangna Ranaut as it was at her instances that the cameo had been removed from the final print. But when Kangna herself approached Sallubhai in Bangkok for tips, he chose to forgive her and help.

Henna tattoos hit Hi-Fi

Hi-Fi (Hindi Film Industry) has a new fad. That of getting henna tattoos. After actors Shah Rukh Khan and Kangna Ranaut, it is Deepika Padukone who has got herself one, on her waist, which reads, Dum Maro Dum. Deepika’s tattoo is for her a hot item number in Rohan Sippy’s forthcoming film by the same name. Sippy had briefed choreographer Bosco to ensure that it was the hottest number this year, and conveyed the same to Padukone, too.


Bosco says, “We certainly want the track to reach at least the level set by Munni and Sheila.” All those who have had a dekko of it say Padukone’s song has a heady mix of sex and drugs in the lyrics.
Shah Rukh Khan would be seen flaunting his henna tattoo in  Don2. It is, in fact, the letter ‘D’ inked on his right arm. “We wanted to do something different with Don this time, so Don2 will see me sporting this tattoo,” he says.


Ranaut has got a henna tattoo for her upcoming film, Tanu Weds Manu. In the film, her character Tanu gets her boyfriend’s name (Awasthi) tattooed on her chest. The actor sported a henna tattoo for nearly three months while shooting. “I had to get it re-touched a few times to maintain the continuity,” she says, adding that she has vowed to get a permanent tattoo at the same place when she finds her Mr Right in real life.
