Starring: <strong>Rishi Kapoor, Lilette Dubey, Ali Zafar, Siddharth, Divyendu Sharma, Tapsee Pannu, Anupam Kher</strong> Directed by <strong>David Dhawan</strong> Rating: <strong>*** ? </strong> “<em>Dum hai, Boss</em>!” the perky young Miss Congeniality in David Dhawan’s <em>Chashme Baddoor</em> (CB), a far cry from the <em>shastriya-sangeet</em> trainee Tutti-fruti-eating Deepti Naval in Sai Paranjpye’s film, exclaims whenever she is impressed by her lover-boy’s dialogue-<em>baazi</em>.

58 years after his father, the late Raj Kapoor created history by taking a stroll on a rainy night with his lady love Nargis sharing one umbrella and singing <em>Pyaar Hua, Ikraar Hua Hai</em> in <em>Shree 420</em>, Rishi Kapoor is doing the same in David Dhawan’s upcoming film <em>Chashme Baddoor</em>. Kapoor, who sports a hippie look replete with tattoos on his arms, recently shot this sequence in Goa, replicating the iconic scene. Braving the drizzle with him was Lilette Dubey.

When it’s a David Dhawan film, entertainment is guaranteed. After receiving tremendous response for Ishq Mohallah, the team of <em>Chashme Baddoor</em> has launched a brand new song <em>Dhichkyaaon Doom Doom</em> that ushers in a fun quotient rarely seen in a film. As funny as the title sounds, the song promises far more quirkiness. The song in mention is already a huge hit on radio with people humming the song and requesting for it to be played on FM stations consistently.

Apart from being a hot stud, Varun Dhawan seems to be nice at heart. Delhi students saw this trait for themselves for recently when this <em>Student of the Year</em> student went to the capital to be part of the Annual fest of SRCC (Shri Ram College of Commerce College). As word started spreading around, the entire student body got very excited about Varun who will next be seen in a cameo appearance in dad David Dhawan’s <em>Chashme Baddoor</em>, coming to their college.

Coinciding with the ongoing exam season, the Chashme Baddoor team went to a suburban college to wish the students the best of luck. Director David Dhawan, Siddharth, Divyendu Sharma and Taapsee Pannu were there to encourage the students to study hard and do well in their upcoming exams.

Having started with Mahesh Bhatt’s <em>Saraansh</em>, in which the then 28-year old Anupam Kher played a retired man who has lost his son, the veteran actor has played all sorts of roles from a gay, to a baddie to a father and grandfather among many others. In his journey from 1984 till date, the actor has built a tremendous fan following that run into a few lakhs. This news is sure to gladden the fans of the actor as they will get to see him play not one or two but three different roles in David Dhawan's remake of <em>Chashme Baddoor</em>.
