That killer smile
Rolling over the tigress, the cubs had all the fun and then they learnt how to hunt. Before anyone realised, the cubs were ready to strike off on their own! One of the little ones today sits right in front of us. He doesn't strike like thunder yet, but you can't miss him. Sidharth Malhotra, the good looking student, has acquired his own gut to hunt; he leaps in a measured way and he definitely means business.
King size?
It's a title that just about manages to catch attention rather than lend itself to some serious conversations, sounds swank rather than hold promise. Punjabiyan Da King gives some immediate ideas and some obvious ones. However, director Manduip Singh offers a correction.
"It's not just a romantic comedy, it's an action romantic comedy," he shares, with the entire cast in tow, which includes Navraj Hans, Keeya
Khanna, Jarnail Singh, Bhanusree Mehra, Shawinder Mahal, among others, while Hobby
Dhaliwal, Satish Kaul, Shahi Kiran and Botu Shah complete the list of the casting crew.
