There were reports that Ajay is in. Ajay is out...In....Out...In! Finally, Ajay, whom Santoshi met recently, has agreed to return to "Power", but at a price.
"Satoshi met Devgn. The star has agreed to return to the project because of his very close association with Santoshi over 'The Legend Of Bhagat Singh', 'Halla Bol' and 'Lajja'," said a source.
However, the hitch is how to get the other actors to co-ordinate their dates with Devgn?
Said a source very close to the project: "Mr Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt and Anil Kapoor are very busy stars. Their dates were taken for 'Power' and wasted because of the problems with Devgn's remuneration and dates. Now Devgn's dates have to be co-ordinated with the others."
"I am not playing anywhere on Valentine's Day itself, as it is on a Monday this year and people don't really want to get out and party. They prefer a dinner with their valentine."
Nevertheless, he is already booked to play at two pre-Valentine's Day parties - in Mumbai Feb 12, and a day later in Hyderabad.
What are the songs he plans to pla"For 2011 Valentine's Day, my favourite songs are 'Tere mast mast do nain' from 'Dabangg', 'Tujhe bhula diya' from 'Anjaana Anjaani' and 'Tonight I'm loving you' by Enrique Iglesias," he said.
Popular for remix hits like "Pyaar zindagi hai", "Bin tere sanam", "Woh lamhe" and "Aadat", Suketu has also worked on a special remix for this Valentine's Day.
"I have worked on a special remix for Valentine's Day. I have re-remixed 'Bin Tere Sanam'. It's been one of my biggest hits and I think it is one of the best love songs ever. So I have re-worked the whole track and am going to be playing it at both my gigs in Mumbai and Hyderabad," he said.
In the music industry for over a decade, Suketu says the only kind of music that gets Indians grooving is Bollywood. He has also observed that the love for slow songs on Valentine's Day parties has been replaced by fast, remix numbers.
"I guess the biggest change that I have noticed in people is the hugely undeniable entry of Bollywood music in all parties. No matter where and who the crowd is, Bollywood gets things grooving.
"Also what I've noticed is earlier the crowd used to like a session of slow dancing when it came to Valentine's parties; now they love only remixed versions.

Sanjay was offered a film opposite Mallika which is a remake of his father Sunil Dutt’s film, ‘Amrapali’.

At first, Sanjay Dutt showed interest in the film but later he opposed citing dates problem. A source reveals, "When the makers first went to him, they hadn't zeroed in on the actress. At the time, Sanju was open to discussing the possibility of being a part of the film.
When they returned to him a few weeks later, and suggested casting the Hissss actress in the film, he decided to back out. He said he had date problems and excused himself from the project."
They are working in ‘Dhamaal 2’ together but not paired opposite each other. On the set, Sanjay was more close to the other actress Kangana Ranaut but he did not gel much with Mallika.

We can only guess what the surprise would be... nevertheless we have heard that Sasha is planning gift Jagrat an Alsatian pup
"Jagrat loves animals, he loves dogs. I couldn't think of anything better to gift him. I remember when we were shooting in Himachal last year a stray dog suddenly entered the sets of our film and started barking and creating nuisance. The entire unit was disturbed and a lot of time was getting wasted. This is when a few unit members tried chasing the dog out but it kept coming back," said Sasha.
"But then, Jagrat came to its escue with a packet of biscuits and called for a bowl of water. The satisfied dog wandered around on the sets for sometime and later followed Jagrat to his vanity van like a sincere bodyguard!" Sasha said.
It's not just the V-day but Jagrat's birthday also falls on 14th February, so the celebration just gets doubled.
Jagrat Desai and Sasha Goradia, who play a married couple- Rahul and Pooja- in 'Tere Mere Phere', share a great chemistry on screen and are best of friends in real too.
Tere Mere Phere is a comic, look at the most complicated happening in mankind's life - the institution of marriage. Apart from Jagrat and Sasha, the film stars Vinay Pathak, Riya Sen, Darshan Jariwala and Sushmita Mukherjee.
