    Bollywood Film Creating Buzz

    Brandon Routh and Akshay Kumar in Incredible LoveEven in a post-"Slumdog Millionaire" world, it's rare for a Bollywood film to make any noise outside of its target audience.

    But when a movie is rumored to feature Brandon Routh, Sylvester Stallone, Denise Richards, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Beyonce Knowles and Carmen Electra, a certain amount of buzz can be expected.

    Sajid Nadiadwala’s forthcoming romantic comedy, "Kambakth Ishq," features Bollywood actors Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor in pivotal roles.

    However, it is the growing list of Hollywood players who have been responsible for getting the movie some publicity.

    The movie, also known as "Incredible Love," will focus on an Indian stuntman in Hollywood on a romantic mission to find his leading lady. During his adventures, he is assisted by a series of Hollywood actors.

    According to Insidedesi.com, the film is rumored to have Routh, Stallone, Richards, Schwarzenegger, Knowles and Electra in cameo roles as themselves.

    Insidedesi.com says, "This will be the first Indian film to be shot within Universal Studios in Los Angeles, Calif., with shooting also taking place in Venice, Italy, and, of course, Mumbai. The movie is set to release this coming May, and is being anticipated to be the biggest blockbuster of 2009."

    Chinaview.cn, citing industry estimates, said Stallone and Routh each will take home more than $400,000 U.S. dollars for their appearances, while Denise Richards will pocket more than $204,000.
