Kylie Minogue comes to Bollywood

Posted by Libran


The sexy and beautiful Kylie Minogue arrives in Mumbai next month to record a song for the movie Blue to be recorded by AR Rahman.

She'll be pocketing a cool $1 million for recording the song. How nice if I was able to do that but then I can't say much about my vocals.

Kylie was not Rahman’s first choice. Among the contenders for the spot, were Madonna and Rihanna. Madonna declined because she was going through a bitter divorce and Rihanna's asking price was too much.

About The Movie
Reputed to be Bollywood's most expensive movie with a budget of $28million, it stars Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, Zayed Khan, Lara Dutta and Katrina Kaif.
According to debutant director Anthony D’ Souza, this movie was inspired by Hollywood's The Deep and Jaws.

The Plot
It's about 3 friends who set out to find a lost treasure guarded by sharks. Just to pump up the action , they are using 40 REAL untrained sharks.

Let's see how it fares at the box-office once it's released.
