Vivek Oberoi excited about his six film line up

Vivek Oberoi is looking at one of the most exciting years in his decade long career so far. Since the New Year is bringing him newer possibilities, what with 'Zila Ghaziabad' and 'Kismat, Love, Paisa, Dilli' [KLPD] as his two confirmed releases this year with 'Krrish 2' also wrapping up for a 2013 release, Vivek is keeping his fingers crossed and aiming at a big bang comeback that would once again bring him in the reckoning all over again.

"Yes, this indeed is a purple patch", smiles Vivek, "There are realistic, sci-fi as well as contemporary characters coming my way. I am happy to be catering to different ends of the spectrum. With good filmmakers backing good scripts and offering me good parts in their films, the going is indeed better than ever. I just hope and pray that there is only upwards movement from here."

While is is turning into a quintessential hero with 'Kimsat, Love, Paisa, Dilli' which is currently being shot in Delhi by Sanjay Khanduri of 'Ek Chalis Ki Last Local' fame, Vivek is super charged about 'Zila Ghaziabad' as well. He says, "I haven't worked in a setup like this before. The legendary tales that you hear about this city is phenomenal. When you have stories being told about land mafia, gang-wars as well as kids who play with 'katta' and 'tamancha', it leads to goose bumps. In the age where a 10 year old should be playing with a 'gilli danda', he is happy to wield a pistol and load bullets."

Meanwhile there are also confirmed talks about 'Masti 2' in the pipeline as well as a couple of more films, announcement around which is just round the corner.

GDA, builders unite to decongest Raj Nagar Extension

GHAZIABAD: Builders in Raj Nagar Extension and the Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) have joined hands to put an end to congestion woes in the area. The move would give a breather to the people commuting through the area and builders believe that this will entice more people into buying a property in the area. "To execute the proposed traffic decongestion plan for NH 58 and other roads in Ghaziabad, GDA has decided to complete these works in association with Raj Nagar Extension Developers Association," said Gaurav Gupta, spokesperson of the Association. Mr Gupta added, "The authorities propose to restructure of the NH-58 stretch - from Meerut-crossing (near new bus stand) to ALT-cut." The builder and GDA team will undertake maintenance of the road and close down illegal cuts on the road (used for taking U-tunr) which have been the main reason behind the mess. The project is already underway and is expected to incur a cost of Rs 2 crore. The association c

Ghaziabad/Noida: The woes of the people of NCR's Noida and Ghaziabad areas have been compounded, thanks to the twin crises of power cuts and water shortage. Noida residents have complained of a significantly reduced supply of water. In sectors such as 10, 11, 12, 15, 27, 31, 32, 33, 34, 37, 56 and 71, the problem of reduced hours of supply has emerged over the past ten days. Many other sectors are reportedly receiving saline mixed with 'soft' Ganga water. "Our house is situated on the ninth floor and very little water reaches that level. The entire pressure gets exhausted on the lower floors. It is a big problem for us," Rama Pandey, a resident of a housing society in Noida Sector 62, said. Munna Sharma, president of Noida Sector-71 RWA and former office bearer of the Federation of Noida RWAs (FONRWA), said, "Normally, we are scheduled to get six hours of water supply, three each in the morning and evening, but these days, we are getting water for just thr
