If anybody still has a residue of interest in Iron Mike, here's some news off the press: MUMBAI, India (AP) - Mike Tyson wants to take on something new - acting in India's Bollywood movies. Tyson said the energy on the sets of a promotional video he recently shot for a new Indian movie has got him thinking about attempting more Bollywood work, a newspaper reported Monday. The American boxer said in The Times of India interview that Firoz Nadiadwala, producer of "Fool n Final" - For which Tyson shot the video - had approached him with another film script. "Firoz has discussed a movie with me," Tyson told the newspaper. "We seriously intend to work toward it." <table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><!--drop width--><tbody><tr height="8"><td> </td></tr><tr><td> <!-- Begin Ad --> <script type="text/javascript"> if(!sops){if(p.sops){var sops=p.sops;}else{var sops="";}} if(dUnitBox==true){boxAd=true;} if(boxAd){if((!dUnitSky)||(!dUnitSuper)||(dUnitBox)){place300x250();}} </script> <!--- End Ad --> </td></tr><tr><td> </td></tr> </tbody></table> He didn't reveal any more details. Last month, Tyson danced to Bollywood music at a two-day film shoot in Las Vegas for a music video to promote "Fool n Final," a movie about a diamond heist. "The atmosphere was very congenial, happy and energetic," Tyson said. The slapstick comedy is about two mob groups clashing over diamonds, which one gang tries to ship from the Middle East to India. Tyson plays himself in the music video, set for release later this month. Tyson said Nadiadwala explained the concept of the music video to him earlier this year. "I was, anyway, in that phase when I didn't mind trying out something different," he said. "The script seemed very interesting, with lots of excitement thrown in." Tyson, who at age 20 became the youngest heavyweight boxing champion in history in 1986, said there were many similarities between acting and boxing. "In both the fields, in order to survive and triumph you need focus and to be highly disciplined and determined." ............................. This is particularly of interest to me, considering I'm Indian and I watch a few Bollywood movies here and there when they come on Saturday and Sunday afternoons:)
Hanzy - I must admit I hate bollywood movies. I love French, Dutch, Polish, Korean, Vietnamese, Hong Kong, and of course Japanese movies - but bollywood. My god. Trash, just utter trash laden with intense gayness.
Mike would have been beter off making that porn movie with Jenna Jameson.:: The guy has the mentality of a grapefruit.
