Sonam storms out of Mausam sets

The actress on arriving in Chandigarh had to wait for her hotel room. On reaching the sets, there was no make-up van, spot boy

Mumbai Mirror had reported about Sonam Kapoor being sent back home by director Pankaj Kapur when she arrived late on several occassions for the workshop of his film Mausam. But this time the actress has pulled off a tit for tat.

She herself stormed out from the sets in Chandigarh due to the disorganised shoot there.

A source from the sets revealed, "A few days ago the Mausam shoot was going on in Chandigarh. Sonam had to shoot for a song and had flown down to Chandigarh early morning.

On reaching the hotel she found out that the room wasn't booked and she had to wait for more than an hour till she was allotted one. Sonam was all red by then."

The source continues, "She immediately freshened up and reached the sets. On reaching she realised that her make-up man, vanity van, spot boy, all were missing.

None of these facilities, which are mandatory and are supposed to be given by the production house, were given to her.

Still she patiently made calls to the production house, asking its staff for her requirements. None of them reverted to her for the longest time. Result: Sonam stormed out from the sets and did not come for shooting."

"Eventually in the evening, after pacifying calls were made to her by the crew, she returned on the sets and shot for the song," added the source.

Both Sonam and producer Sheetal Talwar denied the story.

Shahid Kapoor to grow old...again

Priyanka Chopra aged in Saat Khoon Maaf and now her ex, Shahid Kapoor will grow old in Kunal Kohli's film. Determined to shed his boyish image,

Shaks wants to do roles that take him away from the dancing-dude campus-caper image. He is already playing an older guy in his dad Pankaj Kapur's directorial debut Mausam.

Kohli's film requires him to go through several phases of life until the character reaches old age. The problem is, how will the actor ensure he looks old in two completely different ways in the back-to-back releases? Last week the actor and the director were in Goa deciding on the look for the various phases of his character's aging process.

Shahid has done a series of disguises in Badmaash Company, but to show a man aging in front of the audiences' eyes is not going to be easy. In Kunal's film, the age-span of his character is far wider than in Mausam and prosthetics will be needed.

The director admits, "I did spend a lot of time with Shahid in Goa discussing his look. I can't reveal what is required of him. But for Shahid who's a brilliant actor, it is important to constantly push the envelope. He can't repeat himself. The roles in both the films are very different."
