Sonakshi Sinha is said to be promoting her Shahid Kapoor-starrer 'R � Rajkumar' more than her film with Saif Ali Khan

With back-to-back releases, Sonakshi Sinha finds herself in a fix as far as promotional events are concerned. The actress has been apparently promoting her film R...Rajkumar with Shahid Kapoor more than her film Bullett Raja which has Saif Ali Khan as her co-star and releases this week.

Saif has been spotted making solo appearances on reality shows for the film.























A source says, `As the release date of Prabhu Dheva's film was declared in advance, her dates were locked for promotions. Bullett Raja was supposed to release in September initially and later shifted to November. So her promotional schedule went for a toss. It became difficult for her to adjust her dates, therefore she could give limited days to Tigmanshu's film.

The actress has been trying hard to balance both. A few days back she was in New Delhi with Shahid and now again she is in the capital with Saif.`

Sonakshi's spokesperson, however, maintains, `She has been managing well between the two films.`

Headaches unnerve Hrithik, changes shooting dates

Headaches and more headaches have put Hrithik Roshan off track for the moment. The desease has also caused some damage to his shooting schedule. Kareena Kapoor's date diary no more consolidates with that of Hrithik. The actress who had reserved 200 days for 'Shuddhi' was taken aback when she heard that the film's first schedule has been pushed back to mid-2014 owing to the actor's ill health.

While Shuddhi's director Karan Malhotra, has taken the hero's sick leave in his stride, Kareena is not ready to sit idle till Hrithik is available after completing Bang Bang. So the actress has now allotted the dates to Dev Benegal's as yet-untitled film which will see her paired with Farhan Akhtar.

Dev who was supposed to start the film in mid-March next year, is speeding up the pre-production. Kareena will now start shooting for the film in February, according to a source close to the development.

This will be Kareena's first film with Farhan and a friend of the actress told one of the news dailies, "She appreciates Farhan's work as an actor and director and saw Bhaag Milkha Bhaag thrice. She is going to spend January preparing for the role. This is Dev's first commercial film and she wants to spend time with the director so that they are in sync with each other's vision."


The untitled film, produced by Farhan and Ritesh Sidhwani's banner Excel Entertainment, will reportedly flag off in Mumbai, followed by a second schedule in Delhi.

Dev, the nephew of Shyam Benegal, is known for off-beat films like The English Patient andRoad, Movie.by.. santa banta news network.
