Mumbai, March 26 (IANS) After scripting “Gandhi to Hitler”, Nalin Singh is set to make a movie inspired by the ideologies of spiritual guru Osho.

Co-scripted by Singh and Arunesh Ranjan, the film revolves around a successful rock band in search of ‘moksha’.

“My film is all about sex, god and rock and roll. It is an international film and the subject has been in my mind for years,” said Singh.

“It was a very challenging task for us to put Osho’s ideology in a fictional story,” added Ranjan.

The film will go on floors by June.

Sajid Khan praises ‘anarkali’ Malaika

Director Sajid Khan is all praise for “Munni” Malaika Arora Khan, who has sizzled in the item song “Anarkali Disco chali” from his forthcoming “Housefull 2″. No wonder she is seen in all his films.

“Besides Akshay Kumar, it was Malaika Arora Khan who has been associated with Sajid Khan’s films. Malaika’s item song in ‘Housefull 2′ ‘Anarkali Disco Chali’ has hit the chartbusters big time,” the 40-year-old tweeted.

Sajid and Malaika share a close friendship.

“When she got married, I was her best man. Arbaaz (Khan) is my childhood buddy. Malaika was part of ‘Heyy Baby’, she was part of ‘Housefull’. (My sister) Farah and Malaika also share a superb tuning and every time they work together, they have always given hit songs,” he added.

“Housefull 2″ features Shazahn Padamsee, Jacqueline Fernandez, Asin Thottumkal, Zarine Khan, Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, John Abraham, Shreyas Talpade, Boman Irani, Mithun Chakraborty, Randhir Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor. It releases April 5.

John is selfless: Ayushmann Khurrana

VJ-turned-actor Ayushmann Khurrana, who plays the lead role in John Abraham’s debut production venture “Vicky Donor”, says the latter is one of the most selfless person he has ever come across.

“John’s association with this film is a cherry on the cake. He has also done a promotional number for the film. He is a very selfless guy, he could have cast himself in the movie but he believes that justice should be done to the character,” Ayushmann told IANS.

The film deals with the issue of sperm donation. It also features veteran actor Annu Kapoor and actress Yami Gautam.

Ayushmann is in favour of star associations with films on socially relevant causes, but there’s a catch, he says.

“I think more than the star, content is the king. If the script is not strong then even star associations don’t matter,” he added.

“Vicky Donor” will hit the silver screen April 20.
