The film is a sequel to the 2006 film, Golmaal with Ajay Devgan, Tusshar Kapoor and Arshad Warsi reprising their roles and Shreyas Talpade reprising the role originally played by Sharman Joshi.

Produced by Dhillin Mehta under Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision LTD, the film is expected to release on October 29, 2008.

Synopsis
Gopal (Ajay Devgan), who lives with his wife Ekta (Kareena Kapoor), sister Esha (Amrita Arora) and a dumb brother-in-law Lucky (Tusshar Kapoor), gets stuck in a yacht one night after he saves an attractive young woman Meera (Celina Jaitley) from the dreaded goons, while on his way back home from office. Due to the circumstances, both of them stay back on the yacht.
When he arrives home the next day, his over suspicious wife Ekta, a hard core saas-bahu serial’s fan, suspects him of flirting around with his girl staffs. Gopal thinks that it’s difficult to convince her by telling her about the incident that actually took place the prior night and hence, he invents a story about spending the night with a fictitious friend named Anthony Gonsalves. Ekta does not believe his story as she knows that he never had a friend by that name, and hence, she decides to write to Anthony to come and visit her.

Gopal then convinces one of his juniors, Laxman (Shreyas Talpade), to pretend like Anthony, and thus convince Ekta that he was indeed telling the truth. Laxman agrees to do so, and everything goes according to plan until the address on which Ekta had written a letter to Anthony turns out to be real. Meanwhile, Gopal finds out that a dead body was found at the same location where he saved Meera from the goons. The Investigating Officer Madhav (Arshad Warsi), who also happens to be Esha’s boyfriend, does not get along well with Gopal. He finds out that Gopal was missing from his home that very night and that the dead person was an employee from his company.

Records
Golmaal Returns has created history in CI by collecting a circuit record for the first day. It has surpassed the first day totals of Om Shanti Om and Singh Is Kinng by collecting 22.03 lakhs on day one.

'Quantum of Solace'

Quantum of Solace is the 22nd James Bond film by EON Productions, due for release in the United Kingdom on 31 October 2008 and in North America on 14 November. The sequel to the 2006 film Casino Royale, it is directed by Marc Forster, and features Daniel Craig's second performance as James Bond. In the film, Bond battles Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a member of the Quantum organisation posing as an environmentalist, who intends to stage a coup d'état in Bolivia to take control of its water supply. Bond seeks revenge for the death of Vesper Lynd, and is assisted by Camille (Olga Kurylenko), who also wants to kill Greene.
Producer Michael G. Wilson created the film's plot while Casino Royale was shooting. Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, Paul Haggis and Joshua Zetumer contributed to the script. The title was chosen from a 1960 short story in Ian Fleming's For Your Eyes Only, though the film is not expected to contain any elements of the original story. Location filming took place in Panama, Chile, Italy and Austria, while the sets were built at Pinewood Studios. Forster aimed to make the film more modern yet classic: antique planes were used for a dogfight sequence, while Dennis Gassner's set designs are reminiscent of Ken Adam's work on several early Bond films, yet Forster rejected a grotesque appearance for Greene to comment on the hidden nature of the film's corporate villains.

Plot
Almost an hour after Casino Royale, Bond is involved in a car chase in Siena, Italy. The official synopsis shows that after his capture, Mr. White reveals to Bond and M that White's organisation, Quantum, has agents in Her Majesty's Government and the Central Intelligence Agency(CIA). Forensic evidence of an MI6 traitor leads Bond to Haiti, where he meets Camille, who then helps him find Dominic Greene, a ruthless businessman and chairman of Greene Planet, the legitimate cover for Quantum.

Greene intends to use his government contacts to help overthrow the current regime in Bolivia, and place the exiled General Medrano as the head of state. Medrano will in exchange give him a barren piece of land, which will actually give them total control of the nation's water supply. Bond travels to Austria and South America to unravel Greene's plan, staying one step ahead of the CIA, terrorists, and M whilst trying to keep his desire for retribution over Vesper Lynd's death in check.

World Release
The film will premiere at the Odeon Leicester Square on 29 October 2008. The Princes William and Harry will attend, and proceeds from the screening will be donated to the charities Help for Heroes and the Royal British Legion. The film was scheduled to be released in the UK and North America on 7 November. EON pushed forward the British date to 31 October during filming, while the American date was pushed back in August to 14 November, after Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince had been moved to 2009, thereby allowing the distributors to market the film over the Thanksgiving period. In Australia, the film was moved a week to 19 November, after 20th Century Fox chose to release Australia on its original date of 26 November.

Angelina will marry Brad Pitt

Angelina Jolie has conceded that she will marry partner Brad Pitt one day because of pressure from their kids. In a recent interview with the Italian version of Vanity Fair magazine, Jolie admits marriage is inevitable for the couple, only to please their children.

"Usually people fall in love and everything resolves around the ritual of marriage, children are an afterthought. We did everything backwards," the New York Daily News quoted her, as telling the magazine. "But sooner or later it will be the kids who ask us (to get married). You know, they see films and start asking questions. Such as, 'Why are Shrek and Fiona married and you're not?" she added.

Jolie, 33, also reveals that we shouldn't get too comfortable seeing her on the silver screen now that her priorities have shifted away from Hollywood and towards domestic life. "The kids are my priority, so it's possible that from now on I will make fewer movies. I may even stop altogether. I no longer have the ambition I had in my twenties," Jolie said.

The Wanted beauty has a brood of six with Pitt adopted kids Maddox, seven, Pax, four, and Zahara, three, and biological children Shiloh, two, and newborn twins Knox and Vivienne.

They find themselves in the wildest place of all – the vast plains of Africa – where our zoo-raised crew encounter species of their own kind for the very first time.

While discovering their roots, they quickly find the differences between the concrete jungle and the heart of Africa. Despite long-lost relatives, romantic rivals and scheming hunters, Africa seems like a great place...but is it better than their Central Park home?
