Production

However, Hrithik Roshan did not participate in the first schedule due to a back injury.[9] Actress Shaurya Chauhan met with a freak accident while shooting for the film in Hyderabad, due to which the film has faced some delays.[10] The film was previously expected to release on November 1, 2013[11] but has now been postponed to a post-Diwali November 4 release.[12]
Casting
Following the success of the previous installments, director Rakesh Roshan planned to develop a second sequel to the franchise, with Hrithik Roshan playing the protagonist again. He had penned the script, but had to re-work it as the storyline was too similar to the Hollywood blockbuster Spider-Man 3.[13] Priyanka Chopra was later confirmed to reprise the role of Priya. In this film, she will be seen married to Krishna Mehra.
Next, Chitrangada Singh announced her inclusion in the project as a mutant.[15] Singh was later replaced by Jacqueline Fernandez, however she later on also backed out of the film due to a lack of dates.[16][17][18] It was reported that actresses Nargis Fakhri, Esha Gupta and Bipasha Basu were to replace Fernandez.[19][20] Kangna Ranaut has finally been confirmed to play the role, who coincidentally was originally offered the role.[19] Rakesh Roshan had earlier revealed to media that the main antagonist of film would be as powerful as the hero.[21] After talks with Ajay Devgn and Shah Rukh Khan fell through, Vivek Oberoi was eventually cast for the coveted role.[6][22]
In January 2011, Lakshmi Manchu claimed to have been offered a role in the film as the antagonist's girlfriend.[23] The film has already started making profits. Its overseas distribution rights were sold to Eros International while Rakesh Roshan retained rights in Mumbai.[24] There was also initial speculation that Rekha would play a major role in the film, which was later denied as a rumour.[22]
Music
The songs of the film are being composed by Rajesh Roshan at Krishna Audio; whilst the background score will being composed by Salim-Sulaiman. The music rights of the film was acquired by T-Series for INR60 million (US$1.0 million).[25]
Marketing
Promotions for the movie started post July 2013 and the first look of Krrish 3 was unveiled online.[26] Response for the poster was quite enthusiastic from the audience. The first trailer video was published by film makers on their official YouTube channel on 5th August, 2013.[27] It received more than 2.3 million views at Youtube within its first day of release and thereby surpassing the record held by Jab Tak Hai Jaan of 1 million views in one day.[28] Press reaction has been positive to the teaser trailor with many stating it echoes the look of recent superhero movies from Hollywood such as Iron Man 3, the Amazing Spider-Man and Man of Steel. Writer and author of Bollywood An Insider's Guide, Fuad Omar wrote on his blog that such comparisons were unfair given they were based on comic books and intellectual properties that had been developed over decades[29]. He commented that Krrish was very much an original character created by Rakesh Roshan and developed by Filmkraft and so the film and character deserved credit for setting a new standard for an original superhero which has not been seen elsewhere in the world. He also stated that no other filmmaker in India or elsewhere has managed to achieve what Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik Roshan have in completely creating a new character that competes at the box office with superhero films across the world and comes out with a hugely successful franchise that is original and has fuelled a fandom similar to those of comic book heroes yet with Krrish's story still being written with each film.

Top 10 Los Angeles hotels

Top 10 alternative Los Angeles hotels
As Hollywood's elite check in to Los Angeles' most glamorous hotels for the Oscars this weekend, we pick 10 brilliant places to stay beyond the celebrity haunts, from family-run guesthouses to boutique motels and quirky B&Bs

View from Cadillac Hotel, Venice Beach, Los Angeles. Photograph: Alamy

Big-hitter LA hotels such as the Beverly Wilshire or the Hollywood Roosevelt are so well-publicised and celebrity-haunted that they often blind tourists to more distinctive, reasonably priced accommodation in the city. Hidden in nooks, crannies and side-roads of the City of Angels, there are, contrary to popular perception, numerous family-run guesthouses, intimate boutique hotels and even quirky little B&BS. You just have know where to look.

The Cadillac

Built in 1914, the looming pink and turquoise art deco Cadillac Hotel is on the border of Venice and Santa Monica, with rooms looking out on Santa Monica bay and along the coastline to Malibu. It was once the summer residence of Charlie Chaplin and you'll find a host of eccentrics on your doorstep. From bodybuilders to fire-eaters, you'll never see anything boring from your window at The Cadillac.

The rooms are functional, although sometimes smell like they've been hot-boxed by over-excited backpackers who've discovered the numerous "medical marijuana" dispensaries on the beach. Despite recent renovations, it's still a backpacker hotel at heart, and everyone's up for a good time. The view from the roof is the best place to watch the sunset, and you're bound to find people to share a beer with.

The Hollywood Pensione

This family-run, three-room guest house in East Hollywood is achingly chic, while retaining a homely vibe. Hidden in a 1915 Craftsman house on the edge of Franklin Village, it has sleek and unpretentious rooms, each with a private bath. There's also a common lounge with a balcony, and access to a fully-equipped guest kitchen.

Franklin Village is the haunt of local artists and writers by day, and hipsters by night. You'll find one of the best second-hand bookstores in LA, called Counterpoint, within skipping distance of your bedroom, as well as the best comedy-theatre, the Upright Citizens Brigade. Eat in the numerous restaurants in the village or buy groceries at the Mayfair Market and cook in the Hollywood Pensione's superbly kitted out and colorful kitchen. Then eat on the balcony, under the stars.

Farmer's Daughter

This has recently been renovated from a very basic roadside motel into a surreal tongue-in-cheek hotel that boasts all the cinematic charm of a seedy motel, with all the comfort of a beautifully designed boutique hotel.

"You have to keep to your roots," the manager winked at me one morning as he explained that the original Farmer's Daughter motel was a notorious haunt for desperate starlets new to the city, hoping to bump into producers from CBS Studios, just opposite. The hotel still harks back to kinkier days, while also offering free Wi-Fi and 24-hour secured valet parking. There are brightly coloured rocking chairs in the rooms, gingham curtains, denim bedspreads and if you're in the mood for love there's a "No-Tell Room" where you'll find mirrors on the ceiling and a fully stocked bar, as well as a mural of a wheat field to inspire a roll around in the hay.

Being just across the road from the Farmer's Market, the Farmer's Daughter is walking distance from the shops on Melrose, or a cultural wander down Museum Row. If jet lag has you awake before the market is open for breakfast, you can potter up Fairfax to Canter's, a 24-hour delithat's been a Los Angeles Landmark since 1931.

Hotel Figueroa

Located opposite the Staples Center in the urban heart of Downtown Los Angeles, stepping into the lobby of Hotel Figueroa is like stumbling on a Moroccan Riad. With high, mural-covered ceilings hung with amber lamps, and giant palm trees lolling next to faux-marble pillars, it's an unexpected oasis in the bustling concrete jungle of downtown.

It used to be a YMCA and it still has something of that vibe, but with more soul. It's bohemian rather than slick, but it's by far my favorite hotel down town. In the veranda bar, stained-glass windows spin LA's white light into colored patterns as you sip a mid-afternoon beer, then later in the evening you can take a mojito up to the Jacuzzi terrace, surrounded by cactus plants and skyscrapers.

The Magic Castle Hotel

One sure-fire way to gain entrance into the iconic and secretive Magic Castle, the world's most famous private members' club for magicians and magic enthusiasts, is to stay in the nearby Magic Castle Hotel. Don't expect this friendly, motel-style hotel to have any of the opulence and mystery of the hotel's nocturnal cousin, though. There are no magicians' assistants lounging by the pool, or rabbits scrambling out of hats in the lobby, so if you're after high-drama look elsewhere. It is, however, clean and reasonably priced considering it's minutes from The Walk of Fame and Grauman's Chinese Theatre. Better still, after a hard day of sight-seeing on Hollywood Boulevard, the Magic Castle hotel will provide frozen popsicles while you sunbathe in their courtyard pool.

Highland Gardens Hotel

The monochrome lobby, flooded with natural light and decorated with pristine white sofas, might as well be a different hotel from the old-fashioned guest rooms with their somewhat shiny bedspreads and patterned curtains, but it's still a reasonably priced and convenient place to stay in Los Angeles. Located near all the tourist sites of Hollywood Boulevard, this is slightly more grown up and slicker than the Magic Castle Hotel. There's a pool surrounded by a palm trees, and some of the rooms have private kitchen facilities. Try to get a courtyard-facing room.

It's worth knowing that the Highland Gardens Hotel was formerly the Landmark Hotel, where Janis Joplin died, so if you're feeling morbid, book room 105.

Garden Cottage B&B

At the base of the Hollywood Hills, on Laurel Canyon Boulevard, is the quaint Garden Cottage B&B, where the proprietors, Ahuva and Bob, are known for providing superb organic breakfasts in their garden and great local knowledge.

Of the four rooms, the Terrace Room is probably the prettiest, with a mahogany double bed and a large balcony overlooking the garden. Alternatively you can rent your own little cottage, called The Garden Cottage, with its own private living room and kitchen. This serene little B&B is located just on the edge of glamorous Beverly Hills, near the Beverly Center, so if the wholesome organic vibe gets too much, you can use the money you've saved on accommodation to binge on Louboutin shoes.

Topanga Canyon Inn

This isn't the place to stay if you want to spend your evenings dancing in West Hollywood with Paris Hilton or getting drunk with the girls from America's Next Top Model, but it is if you want to experience the grandeur of the Californian countryside. Tucked among the caves, cliffs and canyons of the Santa Monica Mountains, Topanga Canyon boasts nearly 40 miles of trails and views of the Pacific Ocean, Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley.

It's a perfect jumping off point for mountain biking, horse riding or hiking, and it's also near a secret, romantic little bay called Topanga State Beach, which is quieter than other Malibu beaches because it has a rocky surface under the waves. The Topanga Canyon Inn is also convenient for the Getty, if you're looking for a splash of culture between hikes and early morning horse rides.

Cinema Suites Bed and Breakfast

This hotel was opened by Dianne Bennet because her show-biz friends were always asking for recommendations for reasonably priced, central Los Angeles hotels, of which she decided there were none. And so Cinema Suites was born with three simple, homely rooms right nearLACMA, the Craft and Folk Art Museum, and the George C Page Park. It's slightly cluttered, a bit like the house of an eccentric family member, but well worth it just to meet the proprietor.

In addition to running the Cinema Suites, Dianne has been described as "LA's best matchmaker" and has apparently been operating nationwide since 1990. She claims to have a little black book full of industry contacts and her speciality is arranging matches between glamorous women and wealthy men. So if you're a single woman looking for a sugar-daddy, the Cinema Suites Bed and Breakfast might well be the place to head.

Loz Feliz Lodge

The Los Feliz Lodge encompasses four separate Spanish-style 1920s bungalows, each with colorful living rooms and kitchens. It's almost like having your own little flat in the heart of Los Angeles, but with less hassle, and with people to clean up after you.

The Lodge is walking distance to Los Feliz Village, where you can sip a milkshake in Fred 62, an iconic 1950s diner, or scour LA's favourite independent bookstore, Skylight Books. You can also have one too many martinis in a Los Angeles drinking institution called The Dresdonwhile listening to Marty and Elayne – a lounge act duo who have been performing there since 1982 – and know that you can stumble home to your own little bungalow without getting in a car. Bliss.
