Abhishek Bachchan as Naxalite!

We all know that Abhishek Bachchan plays a negative role in the movie Raavana and his character has shades of one of the greatest mythological villain, Ravan, but the new buzz is that the main inspiration for his role came from the infamous Maoist leader Kobad Ghandy.

As the talented director and a master storyteller Mani Ratnam has a knack for recreating the burning issues of the day in his movies (Roja, Dil Se), he has again tried to do something similar in Raavan. In fact, according to a daily, Mani has even a set of researchers to find out facts about Kobad Ghandy.

As a source tells a daily, “In Raavana, Abhishek plays Veera, a naxalite leader of the downtrodden villagers in eastern Madhya Pradesh. Just like Ghandy’s Communist party India-Maoist is banned, Abhishek’s organisation is also banned in the film.”

Till now, never has a mainstream film touched the issue of naxalism. Mani will try to show it through his version of Ramayana.

The movie is set to hit the theatres on June 18.

Koena Mitra broken up her Turkish beau!

Love’s labour’s lost. Koena Mitra has broken up with her Turkish beau Mett Meral. The honeymoon period of their relationship is over and the couple felt that the relationship isn’t going anywhere.

As a tabloid reports, the main problem between the two turned out to be the distance. For Mett, who is a pilot, it’s easier to travel to India, but that wasn’t the case with Koena. The actress generally is tied up with her work commitments. Moreover, Mett is a bit possessive and wasn’t able to stand male attention her lovely girlfriend used to get.

 

When in love, the sexy actress had said, “Today, I know I am sure I want to be with Mett so there’s nothing to hide...” But unfortunately she had to take this hard decision to split.

 

Her friends further reveal that most of the time they fought over trivial issues. In fact, when Mett came to India in January to celebrate Koena’s birthday, the situation was not so romantic and Koena felt that they aren’t growing in their relationship.

 

Koena’s publicist has confirmed the split and is quoted as saying, “Yes Koena and Mett have broken up. She is single today.”

They will continue as friends.
