Blind Item – March 2015

    This blind item is a fresh one by Rajeev Masand. It’s not spicy, so to speak. It just speaks about the poor situation of this very talented actress. Read on to see if you can figure out who Rajeev is talking about.

    Blind Item - March 2015

    Process over Pace

    A prominent actress, who came out of hibernation last year to play a solid central role in 2014’s best reviewed Hindi film, has reportedly walked out of a major film she signed recently because she couldn’t align herself with the filmmaker’s working style. The darling of critics, and easily one of the finest working female actors, she swept every award in her category for her daring performance in this literary adaptation, but didn’t exactly go on a signing spree in the wake of her recent success. She was courted by a handful of top names, and signed two significant films subsequently, but now it appears that she has left one of the two projects—directed by a blockbuster filmmaker from the South—after shooting for four days. The actress has an impeccable reputation in the business, so insiders have been quick to point blame in the direction of the filmmaker. Word on the street is that the actress was uncomfortable with the director’s rapid pace of filming, and the fact that he cared little for her process.

    The actress has been clear from the start that she is keen to pursue projects that are commercially viable, and those that can afford to pay her a substantial fee. The director in question, who has delivered two blockbuster Hindi remakes, presented the actress exactly that kind of project. It was a no-brainer. Little did she know things would go sour so soon.
