Govinda Turns Editor

What happens when an actor edits his own film? Or when an upcoming star chooses to jog his way back to home, irrespective of the hour in the clock?

Welcome to Bollywood Bizarre, a compilation of some funny, out-of-the-ordinary stories that come from the hustle and bustle of tinsel town.

Govinda is fast catching up on Akshay Kumar when it comes to active participation in films in post-production stage. Yup! the actor was called to edit his upcoming film Money Hai Toh Honey Hai by director Ganesh Acharya (a good friend of Govinda). And Chi Chi let the editing scissors loose and cropped the film from 2 hrs 50 minutes to 2 hrs 7 minutes. Skeptics doubt that Govinda’s editing scissors mainly fell on the scenes featuring co-stars Upen Patel and Manoj Bajpai .

Sonu Sood recently found a novel way to make up for all his absence from gym. After completing the shoot of a film in a Mumbai studio well past mid-night, Sood reportedly decided to jog his way back to his home. Though it was a hike of miles, Sood apparently thought it would be good for health. Everything was fine until he jogged into two policemen on night duty who were alarmed to see a man running in the dead of the night. The cops nabbed the actor. It took Sonu much persuasion before the two cops believed that he was indeed a mid-night jogger and let him go.

We have heard of actresses getting paid for doing movies, but here’s a case of an actress demanding separate money to promote the film she has worked in. The girl in question is Riya Sen , who plays a brief role in producer Sunil Sodha’s film ‘Hum Phir Milein Na Milein’ that introduces two newcomers. According to the producer, he shelled out a “hefty amount” to Riya for a cameo appearance in the film. And now that he wants the actress to promote the movie before its July release, the actress has unleashed a bombshell. She has demanded another “hefty sum” just to promote the film.

Gosh!! What’s the world coming to!
