After
getting
Akshay
Kumar,
Karan
Johar,
Farah
Khan,
Sajid
Khan,
Amrita
Rao
and
Boman
Irani
to
make
guest
appearances
in
his
film-about-films
Jaane
Kahan
Se
Aayi
Hai
writer-director
Milap
Zaveri
feels
the
star
line-up
is
just
not
strong
enough.
With
the
help
of
producer
Nikhil
Advani,
Milap
has
roped
in
some
more
A-listers
at
the
last
minute.
Glam
queens
Deepika
Padukone,
Katrina
Kaif,
Priyanka
Chopra,
Anushka
Sharma
and
Vidya
Balan
will
make
cameo
appearances
in
Milap's
film
and
thereby
add
to
the
film's
commercial
value.
The
cameos
with
these
five
ladies
are
expected
to
be
shot
next
week,
just
3
weeks
ahead
of
the
film's
release
creating
a
major
last-minute
pre-release
situation.
Says
Milap,
"That's
true.
I'm
roping
in
the
names
you've
mentioned.
Shooting
at
the
last
minute
would
be
no
problem
because
all
of
the
star
appearances
are
in
the
first
reel,
so
I
just
have
to
re-edit
the
initial
reel.
Also,
I've
kept
slates
in
the
pre-final
print
announcing
the
various
star
cameos
which
I've
filled
up
as
and
when
they've
been
available." Milap
is
candid
enough
to
admit
his
film
has
no
big
star
value.
"The
only
star
is
Riteish
Deshmukh.
Jacqueline
Fernandez
and
Ruslaan
Mumtaz
will
become
stars
after
the
film
is
released.
Until
they
do,
I
need
to
get
audiences
into
theatres.
That's
why
we
need
to
rope
in
more
stars
in
cameos."
Besides
his
own
clout
in
the
industry
as
a
long-standing
and
very
successful
writer-director,
Milap
Zaveri's
producer
Nikhil
Advani
is
also
using
his
good
wishes
to
rope
in
the
glam-queens
to
add
a
dash
of
allure
to
Jaane
Kahan
Se
Aayi
Hai.
Nikhil
has
apparently
sent
out
messages
to
Deepika,
Priyanka,
Anushka,
Vidya
and
Katrina
who
have
all
agreed.
While
Anushka
will
shoot
her
portion
on
the
sets
of
Nikhil
Advani's
Patiala
House,
the
other
ladies
will
touch
base
next
week
and
do
the
needful.
Says
Milap,
"Vidya
would
be
slightly
difficult
since
she's
shooting
in
Delhi.
But
we'll
manage."
Milap
is
expected
to
fly
down
to
Delhi
to
get
Vidya's
cameo
in
place.
Making
a
film
about
the
film
industry
is
not
easy.
The
director
is
expected
to
rope
in
all
the
stars
that
can
be
crammed
in
the
film.
Luckily,
for
Milap
Zaveri,
he
has
a
producer
who
can
get
his
friends
to
do
the
needful.
Says
Milap,
"The
stars
making
special
appearances
have
been
absolutely
wonderful.
Akshay
Kumar
insisted
on
seeing
a
part
of
the
film
before
doing
his
cameo.
Akshay
speaks
about
Ruslaan
Mumtaz's
character
in
the
camera.
And
do
you
know,
Karan
Johar
actually
agreed
to
be
snubbed
by
Ruslaan
Mumtaz!
Ruslaan
plays
a
superstar
and
in
the
film
he
refuses
to
take
Karan's
calls."
Farah
Khan
has
a
full-fledged
role
as
a
film
director.
But
the
biggest
sport
so
far
seems
to
be
Boman
Irani
who
shot
for
just
the
trailer
of
Jaane
Kahan
Se
Aayi
Hai.
Says
Milap
emotionally,
"That's
true.
Boman
is
not
in
the
film,
only
in
the
trailer.
Everyone
who
has
made
an
appearance
in
my
film
has
been
wonderful.
I
guess
it
comes
from
being
around
for
so
long."
