No more nudity or lovemaking in Hollywood

Hollywood films are increasingly choosing not to show nudity or lovemaking. Here's why ...

Back in the '80s and '90s, when, judging by Bollywood, flowers got way more action than humans in India did, and a hero and heroine running around trees was Largely Understood by the Indian audience as code for 'they're doing it 'Hollywood was a lot less subtle acerca shoving lovemaking or woman-stripping-down-to-underwear scenes into every film - Whether it was a romcom or a film acerca Tom Cruise saving the world or even one acerca That was a bunch of people drowning on a ship. The script Demanded it, the audience Demanded it, and - judging by host Seth MacFarlane's 'boob song' at this year's Oscars, That detailed how a row of Oscar winning actresses bared Their chest in movies They won Their Oscar for - the critics Demanded it too!

Bizarrely, 2012-13 has seen a role reversal of sorts Between the two industries. While sex scenes are turning out to be major crowd pullers in desi theaters (Bhatt sahab Besides keeping still in business), a recent market report commissioned by Warner Bros have revealed That more and more U.S. studios, on the other hand, are choosing not to Their Protagonists have strip / consummate on screen Because, apparently, sex does not sell anymore. Your reaction to this May be 'whaaat?', And Rightly so, Because ACCORDING to the report, "one of the last big steamy moments to heat up cinema screens and score big box-office figures was the intimate in-car moment Between Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet in 1997's Titanic. " That was sixteen years ago! So, what happened?

Sex does sell, superheroes do

Judging by the summer's biggest blockbusters, the world needs lesser sex scenes, and more of the Avengers superheroes and Those space-alien-robots from the Transformers series. And more animated / CGI characters Certainly would not hurt. Just sample 2012's biggest Hollywood hits worldwide:

The Avengers - $ 1,511,757,910

Skyfall - $ 1,108,561,013

The Dark Knight Rises - $ 1,084,439,099

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - $ 1,017,003,568

Ice Age: Continental Drift - $ 877 244 782

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 - $ 829,224,737

The Amazing Spider-Man - $ 752 216 557

Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted - $ 742 110 251

The Hunger Games - $ 691 247 768

Men in Black 3 - $ 624 026 776

As Vincent Bruzzese film research expert said in a recent interview, "Sex scenes used to be written, no matter the plot, to spice up a trailer. But today all that does is get to film an Adults-only rating and lose to younger audience . Today, Such scenes are written out by producers even before They are shot. They ask: do we really need the sex? Can we fill the Space with dazzling special effects instead and keep the family rating? "

As per some stats provided by The Sun, a decade ago, 120 films Given an 'R' (restricted) rating broke into the U.S. box office top 10. Last year, there were only 80. And the report says Most of These movies were certified 'R' Because of violence, and not sex. In fact, only one out of the 25 highest-grossing movies - The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 - had any getting-it-on sequence worth talking about.

Adrian Lyne, director of the mega-erotic films Fatal Attraction, Indecent Proposal and Unfaithful too Told Entertainment Weekly, "Fatal Attraction Would get made at a studio today? Not in a thousand years. I can not think of the last relationship That piece was a success - I'm not sure the studios even make them anymore. Which is apparently why I have not done something for quite a while now. "

Also, offending women is no longer such a good idea to

According To the report, it is women who form a major part of the movie-going audience, and "they find gratuitous sex scenes That Do not fit the plot a major turn-off". Recently, Alice Eve randomly and unnecessarily stripping to her underwear in Star Trek Into Darkness was so offensive Deemed its writer Damon Lindelof That actually took to Twitter to apologize to his fans, saying, "We Should Have done a better job of not being gratuitous in our representation of a barely clothed actress. " Director JJ Abrams too ADMITTED in an interview, "Some people see it as exploiting her (Eve), and while she is lovely, I can also see Their point of view."

The critics aren't a big fan of sex anymore

There was a time When Besides Holocaust movies, graphic nudity container containing films were Considered a soft spot for Academy voters. Halle Berry's sex scene in Monster's Ball was as much Talked about as her acting, same goes for Kate Winslet's derriere in The Reader. While hosting the Oscars in 2011, Anne Hathaway acerca had joked how she did not receive a nomination for her movie Love And Other Drugs DESPITE getting naked in it, while the kind of PR the lesbian scene in Black Swan Natalie Portman Could generated for only have Helped her bid to win the gold statuette.But this time around, Jennifer Lawrence, who won an Oscar for Silver Linings Playbook, did not have a single sex scene THROUGHOUT the movie - And This, DESPITE playing the role of a sex addict in it!

If we look at Bollywood though, Vidya Balan's ooh-la-la act in The Dirty Picture had critics throwing awards at her feet.

Also ...

The no-nudity clause is really, really expensive

Did you know Halle Berry was paid an additional $ 500,000 to flash her breasts briefly in Swordfish? The Telegraph points out, "Buying a Hollywood actress out of her no-nudity clause is an expensive business (a single bared breast will cost more than a cyber winged fireball-spewing dragon, voiced by Harrison Ford, and get fewer hits on YouTube) . "

Besides ... People Have ready access to porn

"You can not just put gratuitous T & A into movies anymore, like a steamy shower-sex scene out of nowhere. Those scenes are never rated highly by test audiences Unless it's part of the plot. Moviegoers will say, 'Why am I going to Pay to See That When I can google it? ', "says Bruzzese adds. Oddly, sex scenes are making quite a comeback graphic on U.S. television, on shows like Girls, Game Of Thrones and Homeland, que are a favorite with audiences and critics alike.

I was called an Indian princess at Cannes: Vidya Balan

Our girl in pink, Vidya Balan, on why Spielberg is like an uncle and how she's dying to be back in Kolkata with Kahaani 2

Flashing skin and looking OTT, she had shocked and awed at the press meet of The Dirty Picture. Only she Could have pulled off the pregnant belly During The Kahaani current promotions. But Thursday was different. In a polka-dotted top and Minnie Mouse hairdo for the Ghanchakkar promotions in Kolkata, she was a hint of sugar with a fair dose of spice. Obviously, Vidya Balan did not disappoint - but does she ever? Excerpts:

Between your last visit and now, so much has changed in Kolkata. Rituparno Ghosh is no more ...

It's shocking. Rituda had spoken to me about different films. It had Become a joke between us. Every year, I would call eleven o'clock to say, 'Ebar kortei hobe'. And I would say, 'Yes, Rituda, This year it's the end'. I heard almost seven-eight scripts over seven years. I remember him calling me on June 30, 2005. I had just finished the post-release promotions for Parineeta and was going to Tirupati with my family. I could not believe my ears! I had watched Asukh at MAMI and loved the film. Since then, we kept in touch. Whether it's a film called Rahgeer, revolving around a movie director and his muse, Debi Chowdhurani - we discussed This a lot. Then, there was another film That had short stories on divorce and marriage ...

Cannes How was the experience? You said you were treated like a princess, while the review back home differed Largely ...

Frankly, I do not read anything. I do not watch TV. There, I did not have email access. That's because i chose to concentrate on my jury duty. When you go for a movie, you are not allowed to take your mobile phone inside. I was disconnected from the rest of the world. I would only speak to (husband) Siddharth (Roy Kapur) and my family eleven to day. I did not know what was happening. There, everyone complimented me left, right and center. I was called an Indian princess and of course, the jury was treated like royalty. When I came back, I heard there has been some amount of criticism. Some people had really liked what I wore and some did not.

Is not looking good all the time too much of pressure?

I used to feel pressured till 2007. Not anymore. Even after That, I had Told myself I would not let pressure build. But It Takes a lot of time. Today, I do not read anything. I just look at the mirror, if I'm happy, I walk out. I can keep one person happy. But if I try to make the whole world happy, then chances are not only will they be unhappy, the person in the mirror will Also be miserable.

How was it meeting jury members Nicole Kidman and Steven Spielberg?

Nicole Kidman is as tall as the Qutub Minar. I have not met a woman in my life workshop and she was fantastic. She is very soft-spoken. Even When She laughs loudly, it's like laughing softly by our standards. They are all very gracious. Spielberg, Considering That he is The most successful filmmaker in the world, is extremely humble. I felt I was sitting with my own uncle. I Reminded me of a relative. He spoke to me like my uncle. At the end of the day, we got to share our passion for cinema and it was great being in That space. It gave me an opportunity to learn so much. Not just about cinema, I had a great realization - Either The most humble people Become really great or the greatest are the humblest.

Back to your film, how's Neetu, the homemaker in Ghanchakkar different from Vidya, the homemaker?

Very, very different. Neetu cooks all the time. And she dresses up all the time. She wears western clothes means only modern western thinking. So, she goes through fashion magazines, cuts out pictures of models. She can not afford designer wear, so she picks up Kapda from the wholesale market and Gives it to her tailor and says, 'This is the photo. Make it this way. ' She has her own way of dressing up, que is disastrous. Also, she is a full-bodied woman. After The Dirty Picture, Rajkumar Gupta told me, 'Do not lose weight. I want you to be like this'. During The Dirty Picture, I did exercise and barring the last part, I did not look flabby. Began When the abuse towards the end of the film, she was oozing all over. For Ghanchakkar, I did not exercise. Neetu is a normal person. The clothes she wears make her look bigger. Subarna Roychowdhury has done a wonderful job. She would pick up amazing stuff from Linking Road but then, Rajkumar said, 'You are dressing Neetu, not Vidya'. That Brought back perspective. And she came up with some outlandish stuff. I have some chappals That have bananas on top. Neetu is a bit mad and kinky as well.

Considering That Siddharth is the producer of Ghanchakkar, is it always work at home?

When Rajkumar came to me with the film, Siddharth and I were not married. We were seeing each other and by then, everyone Knew. Told apparently Siddharth Rajkumar, 'If you have to approach Vidya, do so by all means, but I'll have nothing to do with it. If she says yes or no, I'm out of the scene '. So Rajkumar came to me, but it took me eight months to say yes because i was busy in between with The Dirty Picture and Kahaani promotions. Finally, I said yes and when to I brought it up with Siddharth, I said, 'Do not tell me anything about the script. Just go and convey it to them '. And on everything, Whether it's money, contract, dates, we did not discuss anything. Not even our first impressions of the script. I did not even tell me after I saw Ghanchakkar. I really think he is ghanchakkar. I told him, 'Do not forget that I'm your wife now and You have to tell me'. I said, 'No, I do not want to discuss that'. This helps us retain the sanctity of our marriage. Yes, we talk acerca films. We watch a lot of films, TV shows together. With him, I've started going out a lot to the theaters. But we do not discuss work or people from work at all.

Emraan've Said That I can not talk about the kissing scene in the film, since your husband is the producer ...

Yes, there's a kissing scene. The film is acerca a couple who is married for five years. There's intimacy. I'm okay with it. Emraan likes to joke about it and keep the suspense up. But that's not the only element of suspense in the film.

Are you coming back to Kolkata with Kahaani 2?

I would love to. Please tell Sujoy (Ghosh) to write Kahaani 2 quickly. But I think he's a bit busy. He'll be involved in. completing Rituda's film and the script Might take a bit longer to finish. But I'm really looking forward to it.

It is also interesting to note that each of these actresses are trying to experiment with new test papers and scripts in order to acquire a USP. Bollywood has always been a male-dominated bastion approaching - 50 heroes constantly looking heroines half his age to maintain a youthful image. That's where a makeover in the heroinesâ???? becomes essential list every few years. The filmmakers seem to be in the mood for a review heroines glamor at this point.

Bollywood’s Style-Quotient @ Cannes 2013

Cannes 2013 is on and this year the festival will see the largest contingent of Bollywood as Cannes is celebrating 100 years of Indian cinema. Bollywood stars who have landed on the Riviera are Amitabh Bachchan as the Cannes Film Festival 12 days opened with a screening of The Great Gatsby, Vidya Balan, part of the illustrious jury, the lovely Frieda Pinto and Sonam Kapoor is there as one of the Brand Ambassador of L'Oreal.

Cannes Film Festival is heavily guarded by fashion to dwell on the style quotient celluloid divas. Vidya Balan made three appearances, all in traditional Indian clothing by Sabyasachi Mukherjee - one in a brown lehenga (I loved the simple Choli strikingly devoid of any adornment), other in a lovely ivory sari with a brown blouse with embroidery gold on the shoulders and a final in peach color lehenga style selection Mughal royalty for Gatsby. The final look was a bit much for me.

Big B made a couple of appearances. The sports jacket / safari Bachchan was misplaced. The rest of the Gatsby team wears gray and black. Safari Jacket Bachchan striped blue and white pants and shoes do not complement your natural style. And gawd that belt at the waist was a disaster. In the Great Gatsby projection Amitabh Bachchan was again the odd one out in bright blingy jacket. Bandhgala could have gone with sober if I wanted bling embellishments.

Sonam Kapoor Nath apna utaar please do. (No pun intended! Nath Utaarna also means losing your virginity, I'm sure Sonam is made.) Our style diva also opted for an off white sari (Anamika think) jacket with a full-sleeve work trellis for the Gatsby screening, but huge nose ring was definitely an eye sore. Another aspect in Anamika Khanna jacket festooned with lattice pairs of high-waisted pants were smart. She was also seen with Frieda Pinto in black and gray set was nice but I have my reservations about wether gold pendants were his eyes.

Rani Mukerji signs Aditya Chopra's next film Mardaani

Pradeep Sarkar has not signed his preferred actress Vidya Balan, but gone ahead with the YRF favourite

Aditya Chopra has signed his ladylove Rani Mukerji for his upcoming film, Mardaani. The film will see Rani playing a cop. According to sources, it is the boldest subject attempted by the Yash Raj Films (YRF) till date.

While YRF spokesperson confirmed the news, Sarkar said: "The film will be raw and gritty. It is something that neither Rani nor I have attempted before. And it's always good to invade in new territories, isn't it?"

Previously, Sarkar has directed Rani Mukerji-Abhishek Bachchan starrer Laaga Chunri Mein Daag and Deepika-Neil Nitin Mukesh starrer Lafenge Parindey. Said Sarkar: "After Lafenge..., I was working on Mardaani. I didn't make much noise about it and people wondered where I had gone. I directed many ads in the interim. But now I am bursting to get back on film sets."

When asked why Rani and not his favourite Vidya Balan, whom he introduced in Parineeta, Sarkaar replied, "Yes, Vidya is my favourite. But I have other favourites too. And Rani is definitely one of them. I have a very comfortable equation with Rani. And things just fell into place as far Rani's inclusion in the film is concerned. I told Adi that we should go with Rani in Mardaani."

Elaborating further on the project, Sarkar said:"I am looking forward to direct this big one for YRF. We shall be shooting the major portions of the film in Mumbai."

Mardaani, which will go on floors sometime towards end of this year, will be Rani's eleventh film for YRF. Her last film under the banner, Dil Bole Hadippa!, had tanked at the box office.

After a few setbacks, Rani had recently bounced back with her powerful portrayal of a headstrong journalist in No One Killed Jessica (2011, she won a Best Supporting Actress Award at Filmfare) and a grieving mother in Talaash (2012).
