Sahil Khan and Tanushree Dutta will soon fly all the way to the US to meet the Great Khali. And it's not because they are dying to meet him or something. It's just because they have to complete a photoshoot and also the dubbing of their film Rama The Saviour. Being under the WWE contract, Khali cannot leave the United States.According to a source, "Sahil, Tanushree and the unit of Rama The Saviour will leave for US by the end of this month. They will complete a photoshoot with the Great Khali and also do dubbing in a Hollywood studio. Before leaving India The Great Khali had threatened the producer and director not to dub his voice with any dubbing artiste. They tried their best to bring, The Great Khali to India but being under the WWE contract, The Great Khali can't leave United States."In the film, Khali plays King Azra, Sahil Khan is Rama and Tanushree Dutta will play Samara.

Tanushree Dutta and her parents are unlikely to forget March 26, 2007."We've been through hell, and back. My car is smashed to pieces due to mob fury. But what has happened to my dignity and selfrespect and my identity as a woman are irreparable," the shaken actress said on Thursday afternoon.It all started when Tanushree was approached to do an item song for Rakesh Sarang's Horn Ok Please."I made it clear to the producer director and choreographer Ganesh Acharya that I'm not a run-of-the-mill item girl. I was very particular about my clothes and movements. We rehearsed for nearly a week for the song. And now they're saying I was uncooperative and not ready to rehearse."What awaited Tanushree on the set was four days of horror. "From the start I wasn't comfortable with Nana Patekar's presence. In fact after the first day of shooting I told my mother something didn't feel right there.Nana had just three words O yara re in the song. Still he insisted on being around throughout. That was fine. He's the film's hero and it's his prerogative. But then he started acting hugely aggressive.Instead of the choreographer Nana started showing me the steps. I don't know since we has become an expert dancer."Tanushree made her displeasure at the actor's intervention very clear. "A couple of times I pushed his hands away when he got too close for comfort. But it didn't seem to make a difference to him.He continued to direct my steps roughly and aggressively. Things got really out of hand when Ganesh incorporated steps where Nana could get physically close to me."That's when the actress chose to walk off the set and locked herself up in her van. "Not for three hours, as they reported on the tv channels. But for 90 minutes.They called up Mr Pehlaj Nihalani to intervene and he told them to change the steps if being a girl they made me uncomfortable. I finally came out of my van…only to be told they won't change the steps. Why? Was it Valmiki's Ramayan that every word had to be faithful?I think the poroducer, director and choreographer had decided to teach me a lesson. They threatened to call the media on the sets and proclaim I was uncooperative. I didn't know how serious they were. Nana apparently had left by then."Tanushree decided to leave too. "But my car with my parents in it was surrounded by hordes of tv journalists. When they couldn't get a sound bite from me they pushed themselves into the front seat of my car.When that didn't work they began banging on the windshield with their cameras. My parents and I were trapped inside my car.Anything could've happened. We frantically tried to call the producer and director. They had both switched off their mobiles."Finally someone had the presence of mind to inform the cops. That's when Tanushree and her parent's nightmare ended.The Duttas have lodged an FIR against those who allegedly attacked them in her car at the Goregaon police station."What I want to know is, where was the security at Filmistan studio when I was attacked? Where was the producer and director?They've wasted no time in replacing me with Rakhi Sawant for the song and labeling me uncooperative. But why did they realize how unprofessional I was on the fourth day?Can they get others in the film industry to accuse me of undisciplined behaviour? Or did they think they could mess with me and manhandle me just because I'm a girl?"

Bollywood actress, Tanushree Dutta looked hot and sizzling in her green outfit as she came to the city for a promotional activity. In middle of all the chaos, AT managed a quick chat with her.Nana Nana Ha Re:The incident that took place while shooting with Nana Patekar is absolutely true. It is one incident which I won’t forget. He is one of those people who behave extremely irresponsibly. I have got to know that nothing like this has ever happened in the history of Bollywood, so on a lighter note, I have created history.Movies, masti & magic:My current release is Rama — The Saviour with Saahil Khan and six child artists. My role in the movie is an action-oriented one. To prepare for the role, I learnt Taekwondo. My next release is an urban comedy titled Saas Bahu and Sensex which also marks the debut of Warner Bros in Bollywood. I am going to start shooting for Ashtavinayak’s next with Govinda soon.I have a dream:My dream role would be that of a drug addict or a psychotic woman, something on the extreme side. I am also crazy about Shah Rukh Khan and hope to work with him someday.Skin is in:I am alright with wearing glamourous clothes which show some skin. It is an easy way to success, but one has to draw a line and be in her limits. I can’t and won’t do a role that requires nudity, even if the character is good. I am also not comfortable doing kissing on-screen.The ‘Item’:I love doing item songs and will continue doing them as I don’t see any harm in appearing in one. There is a lot of recognition and even the film gets good attention. I have done a few item songs in the past and they have worked really well for me, the film and the audience, too.Foodie Fundas:I am a complete foodie and just can’t resist butter chicken. I have gone through an overweight phase, but am more disciplined and organised now. I hit the gym regularly and eat sensibly. Having said that, I can’t be size zero as one has to really starve to maintain that size, which in turn, is very unhealthy.I, Me, Myself:I am an introvert and a very private person. I love my space. But if I gel well, I am very talkative and hilarious. I was quite shy at one time but this industry has made me more confident.

It so happened that Tanushree, clad in skimpy clothes, was rehearsing an item song with the film’s choreographer and actor Nana Patekar. Provoked by her outfit some junior artist on the sets passed a lewd comment on Tanushree. To add to the insult, Nana Patekar reportedly said that she should have covered her body up to prevent people from getting provoked. Tanushree was so upset that she refused to perform with Nana. The song is reportedly spicy and Nana was supposed to touch her in some shots. The actress retired to her vanity van refusing to come out of it. This delayed the shoot for over two hours. Irked by Tanushree’s unprofessionalism, the producer cancelled the shoot. Now, the queen of item numbers, Rakhi Sawant, has bagged in the song.
