Tollywood and Bollywood Videos

I haven't posted any Tollywood videos for ages, so I thought I'd share one today and also a Bollywood video, since I had planned to post more about Bollywood this year!



Tollywood

First up this is Seeti Maar from the Tollywood film DJ - Duvvada Jagannadham. It's an action comedy which came out in June and is about a man called Duvvada Jagannadham (played by Allu Arjun), a Brahmin priest who moonlights as DJ,  a crime fighter in disguise (like a superhero!). He falls in love with Pooja (Pooja Hegde) who is involved with a crime boss.

This is a dance scene from the movie. The playback singers are Jaspreet Jasz and Rita.



Bollywood

And here is Piya More from the Bollywood film Baadshaho which stars Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi (one of my favourite actors), Ileana D'Cruz, Esha Gupta and Vidyut Jamwal. The film is set during the Emergency time period in the mid 70s. Indian queen Gitanjali (played by Ileana who started out in Tollywood) asks her bodyguard Bhawani Singh (Ajay) to steal back gold for her, which was taken from her palace in Jaipur by the government. Bhawani gathers a team together to carry out her wish. Emraan plays army officer Dalia.

This is inspired by real life events and the character of Gitanjali is based on the Maharani Gayatri Devi. Baadshaho was released on 1st September.

The video for Piya More features Emraan and Canadian/American actress Sunny Leone, who is an item girl in Baadshaho, appearing as a dancer. It's not the full song I don't think. The playback singers are Mika Singh and Neeti Mohan.





Random fact: I just read that Sunny is in Ja Rule's Living It Up video! You can look out for her here: http://starsparklex.blogspot.co.uk/2012/02/weekly-music-video_29.html



Both films sound interesting but Baadshaho seems like the one I'd like the most. :)


Emraan fan too? Check out these posts:

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
