This will give you an indication as to how international, so to speak, Bollywood has become. Uday Chopra (son of director Yash Chopra) has tried his hand at acting and has not been able to impress anyone. Thank heavens that he is now striving to go for a different department of filmmaking.

Uday C is producing a film based on the life of the late Princess Grace of Monaco. Somehow, Lord knows how, he has managed to rope in Hollywood A-list actress, the gorgeous Nicole Kidman for the part. Olivier Dahan will be helming the film, and cameras will roll in the last quarter of this year.

Uday C and Nicole K! Would it be fair if we told you the story of a beauty and a… No. It won’t be fair. So we will shush.
