A real life Barfi visits the sets of Cine Stars Ki Khoj
A Hearing and Speech impaired ‘Cine Stars Ki Khoj’ aspirant touches Anurag Basu’s heart with a tribute to his film Barfi!

This week, the third judge of Cinestars Ki Khoj joined the bandwagon and was left completely blown away by Kartik. Anurag Basu, completely unaware of his speech and hearing challenge, watched him present a touching sequence from his own film Barfi'. It was only at the end that it hit Basu that the boy has a disability when he gave him feedback and Kartik could not react verbally. The fact that it was a real-life deaf-mute actors enacting one of Ranbir Kapoor's strongest scenes from the film so convincingly brought tears to Anurag's eyes.
A visibly choked Anurag said, "I salute the spirit of this young man who hasn't let setbacks and challenges deter him. His undiluted love and passion for acting has brought him this far in the competition. This has almost been like meeting a real life Barfi. God bless you, Kartik!"
The upcoming episodes of the acting talent hunt show see the genius film-maker in a whole gamut of moods - from being deeply touched to laughing out loud to pulling contestants' legs to joining them up on stage to participate in all the drama.

i like the theme of this photo shoot...its so fun and retro. FYI imran and PC r not together its just for the mag! and when a guy looks older than a girl its "romantic" but if its the other way around its "eww"..whats eww is the "pedophilic" way of thinkin "double eww"

That's a wonderful shot! They look cute-hot! But I feel this shot would've been better if Priyanka was slightly more covered from the top.
