Rani-Mukerji[1]1

Rani Mukerji, who comes from a film family and has been active in the industry for 13 years, says she was naïve and innocent but has become smarter with time.

“From the time I began to now the only change in me has been that I have become more confident. I was very naïve and innocent before. I have become smarter now because you have to be smart to be in this industry,” Rani said.


“When I had started I used to get hurt about certain things, but today I have been able to develop a slightly thicker skin than I had. That has been the only change in me,” added the 32-year-old.
The actress is all set for “No One Killed Jessica”, where she will be playing a news reporter. Releasing Jan 7, the film, based on the murder of model Jessica Lall, is the first big release of the year.

Asin is probably touted to be signed opposite Shah Rukh Khan for the adaptation of Two States . While Priyanka Chopra’s name was being speculated, Shah Rukh and producer Sajid Nadiadwala have chosen Asin as they wanted a fresh pairing.As Priyanka has been paired with Shah Rukh earlier, their search ended on Asin.


After working with Aamir in Ghajini and Salman in London Dreams , Asin might end up being one of the few heroines to have worked with all the three Khans. The role of a Tamil girl suits Asin to the tee and she has always professed eagerness to work with SRK. Asin has her fingers crossed as she waits to sign on the dotted line.

Kangana Ranaut talks about her Upcoming Movie

kangana1

Tanu Weds Manu’, which will see the fresh pairing of Kangana Ranaut and R. Madhavan, was initially titled ’Manu Weds Tanu’ but the name was changed at the lead actress’ behest.

Director Anand Rai felt ’Manu Weds Tanu’ was an appropriate title, but Kangana who plays Tanu in the film, insisted that the title should be ’Tanu Weds Manu’ and not ’Manu Weds Tanu’ because the narrative unfolds from Tanu’s point of view, said a source.

The director was taken aback, but Kangana explained her point saying Tanu, a small town, wild girl, is the one in the commanding position compared to Madhavan’s character Manu who is shown as a simple NRI guy in the comedy.

When the director spoke to Madhavan, thinking he would get upset, the actor saw the point immediately and readily agreed with Kangana.


’It’s true that the film was earlier titled ’Manu Weds Tanu’. However, we felt that ’Tanu Weds Manu’ was a more suitable title, according to the demands of the script. So we decided to go with ’Tanu Weds Manu’,’ said Rai.

The film will release Feb 25.

Anushka Sharma has said she is glad she is known for her talent but has questioned why she gets less hype than other Bollywood actresses. Speaking to the Mumbai Mirror the actress said she does not know why Deepika Padukone and Sonam Kapoor were more famous than her.

“I don’t know. You tell me. Having given three hits back-to-back in three years I wonder why there is not as much hype about me as them,” she said.

Sharma added that she thinks the other leading ladies are less famous for their films than they are for their off-screen activities.

“I am glad that I am known for my talent and not for my clothes or controversies,” she told the paper.


Sharma made her Bollywood debut alongside Shah Rukh Khan in 2008 with Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, for which she was nominated for a Filmfare award.

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor have left for Switzerland for a ten-day holiday to celebrate the New Year.

Moreover, the couple would check in at an eco-friendly, 300-year-old chalet that runs on solar energy, we hear. Apart from the spectacular view of the scenery, the chalet also provides privacy and basic comforts for any couple.


We wish a Happy New Year to Saif and Bebo.

Katrina Kaif go for de-glamour

kat-wallpaper[1]1

Katrina Kaif rocked the nation with her sexy avatar in ‘Tees Maar Khan’ and especially her item song ‘Sheila Ki Jawaani’. Now, the actress will be seen in a role in dire contrast to what she played in TMK. This Prakash Jha film titled ‘Satsang’ will see Kats as a woman clad in an ochre robe and in search of spirituality. This upcoming film exposes the multi-billion global religion factory in India.

Her role in Satsang is so complex that even Jha was not sure, initially, if the actress could deliver. “It would be the most challenging part of my career so far,” says Katrina.

She plays the central character in the film which is semi-autobiographical in nature and is that of a woman from the West in search of Oriental spiritualism. Katrina will be seen sans makeup for the film and will have to get informed on the intricacies of the multi-billion religious industry in India.”


Katrina is already geared up for the role and says, “Prakashji and I have discussed the part in detail. This is one film that I’ve do the most preparation for. I’m open to the challenge.”

I was a workaholic and restless by temperament: Nandita Dass

0 comments

Nandita dass2

Film-maker and actress Nandita Das is glowing as she was last seen with her son Vihaan at a recent event.

Motherhood has changedlife for her and businessman husband Subodh Maskara who are now pround parents of a baby boy.

Talking about the life-altering experience, she says,” I was a workaholic and restless by temperament but I am discovering a far more patient and centered self and so happy just being with my little one. I am missing nothing else!”

Talking about her next film she says, “There are a couple of projects both in terms of acting and directing that I am considering. Recently I have committed to directing an international film called Trafficking (working title) which tells the intertwining story of three young women from very different backgrounds who are forced into the dehumanising world of sexual slavery. I was attracted to the project because it is a powerful story that needs to be told. We know so little about trafficking and an accessible film that touches the hearts and the minds of people will do justice to it.”


Nandita has been in the industry for more than a decade and says that it is her serious image that irks her the most. The actress is percieved to do only ‘meaningful cinema’ and says that she gets annoyed when people ask her about an image makeover. “It has been 14 years since I did my first film Fire. I find it strange that this question is still asked to me as by now my work and choices should have answered them adequately. I want to continue being part of stories that I feel need to be told. I don’t label films as art or commercial. Image is what others create, so neither am I trying to create it or shed it. I am just doing what resonates with my beliefs and interests.”

Madhuri Dixit to play a mother role for Sonam Kapoor

0 comments

madhuri1

If what we hear is true, Madhuri Dixit may soon playing the role of Sonam Kapoor’s mother in Anil Kapoor’s remake of the Hollywood film, Freaky Friday.

The role was previously offered to Shabhana Azmi, Rekha and Kirron Kher who had to turn it down due to date clashes. Since Anil has said that he would like to work with his former leading lady again, he felt that Madhuri suited the role perfectly. Although she likes the script, we are still waiting for confirmation on her part in the film which revolves around a mother and daughter who magically swap roles for a day.


Could this be Madhuri’s comeback from her previous comeback, Aaja Nachle?

Her secretary and previous manager, Rakesh Nath has said, “She has got four-five very good offers. She will definitely do another film soon, but this time we have to be very careful. I’ve worked with other actresses, but Madhuriji is Madhuriji.” However, we do know she is meeting him since she tweeted, “Meeting with Anil Kapoor today. Lets see what happens….”

When asked about his upcoming venture, Anil said, “It’s too early to comment on any of my new projects, but I would love to work with Madhuri in any capacity at any stage.”

That’s what the latest buzz in tinsel town says. Anyone who saw the duo together on Karan Johar’s show Koffee With Karan would swear by their chemistry - how Shahid teased Priyanka endlessly and how she played along coyly.

Katrina Kaif’s feisty role in Prakash Jha’s Raajneeti won her a lot of accolades. Hence, a lot of people were surprised when Kats didn’t feature in Jha’s next biggie Aarakshan. However, Katrina has no reason to worry as she is all set to work with Jha again in a film titled Satsang.


Satsang would feature Katrina in the role of a woman from the West in search of spirituality. She would be seen in a non-glamorous avatar without any make-up and would be donning ochre robes. Even though the film will mostly kick off only after Jha finishes Aarakshan, Katrina is super-excited at the prospect of re-uniting once again with Prakash Jha. The actress believes this to be her most challenging role till date.

I don’t know how to make friends:Shah Rukh Khan

0 comments

srk2

On the show ‘Koffee With Karan’, SRK bared his heart to friend Karan Johar talking on Farah Khan and Salman Khan and said that he can’t keep reminding people that he loves them.

SRK reportedly said on the show, “I don’t know how to make friends and if I do, I don’t know how to keep them.... If Salman and Farah are upset with me it’s 100 percent my fault but I can’t pick up the phone and say sorry.... I can’t apologize not because of ego but because I can’t just get myself to ask people to come back to me... I had asked my parents to come back and they didn’t...”

“I feel it’s understood that I love them if I have told them once... I can’t keep repeating it... I have a problem saying ’I love you’ twice and thrice and keep repeating the words... Even in my films I can’t keep saying ’I love you!’” he added. Karan Johar reportedly cried on this comment by SRK.


The show is said to be different from the earlier episodes of this season, which were spicy and controversial.

"It was a totally different cup of coffee this time. It’s awkward to discuss and recreate such intimate scenes normally again. I have never become emotional on Koffee With Karan because that’s never been the tone of the show,” Karan said.

The episode will be telecast on January 2.

Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif, on the other hand, rejected an offer of ` 3.5 crore to go on a Christmas vacation. " As Tees Maar Khan was releasing during Christmas, Katrina will have post release events to handle," said a source, adding, " But Malaika would definitely be dancing at Amby Valley."

Actress Anushka is refusing to do the lead in a Hindi movie.

0 comments

While Illeana is happily doing her second lead in her maiden Bollywood film, Anushka is refusing to do the lead in a Hindi movie. Normally, any heroine would die for a lead role in a big Hindi movie.
But Anushka shows no interest. Recently, she was offered the role in a Bollywood flick, remake of the Tamil movie Singam in which she did the lead role. But Anushka didn’t accept it.
Bollywood director Rohith Shetty who is remaking it personally asked her to enter Hindi film industry, yet Anushka declined politely saying she’s "comfortable in South film industry.
"Anushka is the busiest star in Telugu and Tamil and she is in much demand. So she doesn’t want to become another Asin or Trisha who are now back from Bollywood doing South movies.

Although Asin made a grand entry into Bollywood with Ghajini, her subsequent flops made her a no star. Trisha’s first Hindi movie, Khatta Meetha, was a disaster. Seeing their pathetic situation in Bollywood, Anushka wants to continue doing Telugu and Tamil movies.

Bollywood actress Neetu Chandra is in the midst of a controversy once again

0 comments

neetu-chandra1

Bollywood actress Neetu Chandra today denied having any links with Pakistani bowler Mohammad Asif, who is at the centre of a ‘spot-fixing’ scandal that has rocked world cricket.

The controversy began with most Indian television channels discussing a “leaked” document, which they claimed, was prepared by the Interpol and Scotland Yard for the Pakistan Cricket Board. Apparently, this document contains various phone numbers of people who interacted with Mohammad Asif in 2009.

The TV reports stated that in this document, the only mobile number from Mumbai, belonged of actress Neetu Chandra, and insinuated that she could be involved in the infamous match-fixing scandal. They further claimed that according to the document, the actress had made two phone calls and exchanged SMS’s with the controversial cricketer, discussing sensitive cricket issues and deals.

But Neetu Chandra’s publicist Dale Bhagwagar vehemently denied all the allegations. “Personally, Neetu does not know Mohammad Asif or any Pakistani cricketer for that matter. Her name is being unceremoniously dragged in the match-fixing debate with baseless allegations,” said the celebrity publicist.

“Neetu didn’t even know how Asif looked like. Within minutes of this controversy breaking out, I met her and showed her his picture from the internet on my BlackBerry. Neetu glanced at it and almost jumped from her chair, joking, ‘Oh, he’s too dark’. She also doesn’t know or understand how her cell number has featured on such a scandalous list. If it indeed has, it could well be a conspiracy,” added the PR specialist.

Owing to her active association with sports, recently, Neetu also became one of the few privileged Bollywood celebrities to have the honour of running with the Commonwealth Games torch (popularly known as the Queen’s Baton) in her hometown Patna. Apart from being a regular basketball player, the actress is a Black Belt 2nd Dan in Taekwondo, having participated in various martial arts tournaments at a district, national, as well as international level. Though Bhagwagar revealed, she is not a cricket fan.


This year, Neetu has an impressive line-up of films like Anees Bazmee’s ‘No Problem’ (with Sunil Shetty, Akshaye Khanna and Sushmita Sen), Gary Grewal’s ‘Khusar Prasad Ka Bhoot’ (with Paresh Rawal and Randeep Hooda), Barnali Shukla’s ‘Kuch Love Jaisa’ (with Rahul Bose) amongst two other mega-budget ventures opposite superstars of the South.

Veena Malik managed to make an impression in Big Boss

0 comments

veena-malik[1]1

Much has been made about Veena Malik’s “behaviour” in the Bigg Boss House from the twin flirtations she struck to the short clothes she wore. To me, this spells Veena’s victory. Out of 14 housemates including a global star, Bollywood actors and Bhojpuri film industry’s Shahrukh Khan - Veena managed to make an impression.

While she was busy inside, the world outside was delirious with anger: how dare a Muslim, Pakistani woman conduct herself like this in, horror of horrors, India! The other side was also quick to retort: Veena is representing the ‘modern woman’ of Pakistan. For good measure, they threw in a comment or two about people completely irrelevant to the discussion such as, why aren’t Pakistani, Muslim men criticised for their behaviour while in India? And the answer to that could be that perhaps because we have yet to read about a similar controversy regarding, say, Atif Aslam, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan or Ali Zafar.

As for me, I am neither the ‘moral brigade’ and nor am I part of the ‘immoral brigade’, so to speak. But I am the modern Pakistani woman, the girl who Veena was supposedly representing. As I observed everything and listened to arguments from both sides, I found one essential thing missing from both arguments: Veena Malik does not represent me. I do not relate to her and our similarity ends where it begins: like me, she is a woman, a Pakistani, a Muslim and she wears heels. And for some women, the latter two don’t hold either.

While I appreciated Veena at some point, especially for the proper Urdu she spoke, she is insignificant because there are much better rolemodels out there, people who I can actually relate to and look up to.

One such woman is Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy. An award-winning filmmaker, Sharmeen has worked with refugees, women’s advocate groups and human rights defenders in over ten countries. (More detail about her work can be found on her website.) Another woman who represents a woman like me is South Asia’s fastest woman - Naseem Hameed. A resident of a locality in Karachi populated by middle-income families, Naseem started her sporting career in school and was eventually spotted by army coaches. The rest is, as they say, history, with her winning a gold medal at the last SAF Games. Apart from individuals, the modern Pakistani woman is also lucky to have a whole team of good rolemodels. One is referring to the Pakistan women’s national cricket team which recently won a gold medal at the Asian Games.


To me, Veena Malik’s dresses, men and stilettos don’t matter because she does not represent me. The modern Pakistani woman goes out wearing whatever she wants baggy pants or running shoes and carrying whatever she wants a tote or a camera bag. The modern Pakistani woman is a success story who does not flirt with men to show to the rest of the world that she is good and has potential. I am a modern Pakistani woman who has a job, pays her taxes and drives around town. And I don’t need a Veena Malik to represent me not in India, not anywhere in the world.

Deepika Padukone shifted to new house

deepika_padukone1

BeauMonde Towers, Prabhadevi. That is Deepika Padukone’s new address. The actress has bought a plush four-bedroom apartment in a 33-storey tower for a whopping Rs16 crore along with her father Prakash, a former national badminton champion.

The actress’s apartment in tower B has an area of 2,776 sq ft and is very close to the Siddhivinayak temple. Deepika’s 26th floor apartment also comes with parking slots for three cars.

The actress and her father visited the property registration office at the Old Custom House in Fort on December 6 to pay stamp duty for their apartment in BeauMonde Towers, a complex with three residential skyscrapers. They paid Rs79,82,600 to register the property.

“The Padukones did not ask for special treatment. They completed the paper work in just about the same time as anybody else. However, people who were in office when the actress arrived were disappointed since they could not take her pictures,” an official from the registration office told DNA.


The property has been jointly registered in the name of Deepika and Prakash. The apartment was purchased from Sheth Developers Pvt Ltd, which constructed the property in Prabhadevi. BeauMonde Towers has a two-level podium. The complex also has two tennis, badminton and squash courts apart from open exercise decks.“Deepika, who lives with her parents in Pali Hill at present, may continue to stay there. She may have bought the Prabhadevi apartment as an investment,” a film industry source said.
Deepika’s decision to buy an apartment in Prabhadevi has taken the film industry watchers by surprise. Most stars prefer to stay in the suburbs, especially between Bandra and Andheri, since most of the studios and offices of production houses are there.

However, sources close to Deepika say the actress is not worried about the travel to the suburbs since she feels the Bandra-Worli Sea Link would make her commute easier. Besides, most of the films nowadays are shot overseas. As a result, industry sources say, upcoming high-end properties in South and Central Mumbai have caught Bollywood’s fancy recently.
“Stars who don’t have family-owned homes in the city are warming up to the idea of buying houses in upcoming real estate hubs such as Prabhadevi, Worli and Parel,” a publicist of a top Bollywood actress explained. The secretary of another actress said that those from small-town India find the prospect of owning a high-end luxury home in the island city very alluring. “Some are keen to buy apartments only as an investment option. They don’t have the desire to stay in them,” he added.
A real estate agent from Fort said he had received several inquiries about properties in Worli and Malabar Hill from representatives of two top Bollywood

Rani Mukerji and Vidya Balan looked really happy each other while lip lock.

vidya and rani1

Bollywood actresses Rani Mukerji and Vidya Balan have pulled off a new feat in front of media cameras. The normally quiet girls got naughty at a promotional event in the recent past. Well, we know that both Rani and Vidya do not shy away from playing bold roles onscreen, but that the two women could pull off such a stunt for the television camera is something that their fans were not prepared for. According to reports, Rani Mukerji and Vidya Balan engaged in a passionate lip-lock at a stage event held in the recent past.

The videos doing the rounds on the net are evidence of the fact that the earlier warring actresses Rani Mukerji and Vidya Balan have kissed and made up, literally! Ever since the promotional clips of their upcoming film together No One Killed Jessica was released on television, people started praising Rani Mukerji, considering that her character of a journalist is a more powerful role compared to Vidya Balan’s role of Jessica’s real life sister Sabrina Lal. And it was this fact that was apparently giving Vidya Balan sleepless nights, also the root cause of her catfight with costar Rani Mukerji.


However, the fight is a thing of the past now. Both actresses are professionals in real life and thus they agreed to take that extra step to promote No One Killed Jessica well. So is the lip-lock only a promotional gimmick? Though many will be thinking so, Rani Mukerji and Vidya Balan looked really happy and enjoyed each other’s company while performing the lip-lock on stage!

'I'm very excited about my film: Hema Malini

hema-malini1


Directing your husband and daughter could have its tricky moments and so it was for Hema Malini too. But it was enormously enjoyable and everything eventually fell into place, says the Bollywood diva and director whose forthcoming ’Tell Me Oh Khuda’ stars husband Dharmendra and daughter Esha Deol.

’Directing Dharamji was superb. In the beginning, however, he did not listen to me. He used to ask me ’What is this, what is that’. Then I used to tell him that I want it like this, so just do it. So he realised I knew the job and then left it entirely to me. He didn’t interfere at all after that,’ Hema, who has wielded the megaphone after 18 years for the movie, told IANS in an interview.

The crackling chemistry between the couple was in evidence in blockbusters like ’Seeta Aur Geeta’, ’Sholay’, ’Razia Sultan’ and ’Pratigya’.

Hema, 62, who earlier directed the Shah Rukh Khan-Divya Bharti-starrer ’Dil Aashna Hai’ in 1992, is making ’Tell Me Oh Khuda’ for her daughter Esha.

’I’m very excited about my film. It’s a very interesting story of a girl’s passionate quest to know her origins. The film might get delayed a little bit because of the whole process of change in directors. But I’m trying to release it latest by March,’ said the actress, looking graceful as ever in a green silk sari.


She has roped in Arjan Bajwa, Chandan Roy Sanyal, Vinod Khanna and Rishi Kapoor for the film. It was earlier being directed by Mayur Puri but Hema decided to take the reins in her own hands.

The film is in the post-production stage and work is expected to get over by Jan 10.

Sonakshi Sinha will be busy in 2011

sonakshi-sinha-wallpaper[1]1

Sonakshi Sinha is the flavour of the season. 2011 looks like a terrific year for this star kid. She starts to shoot Joker with Akshay Kumar early in the year. She joins the unit of Race-2 in July with Saif Ali Khan and then goes into Kick with Salman Khan.

Rumours say that she is also kicked about the fact that she is being considered for Kunal Kohli’s film with Shahid Kapoor, Prabhu Devaa’s film with the Khiladi Kumar...and wait there is more. We now hear that Sonakshi may be seen in Anurag Basu’s film
Silence (the title is being changed shortly) alongwith Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra.


Yup, this is the same film that Katrina Kaif turned down because she felt that Piggy Chops had a better role than her. Neither Sonakshi nor her manager are willing to comment on her films with Shahid and Ranbir. But the industry is buzzing with the news already.

Anushka Sharma scored pretty impressive at the moment

0 comments

anushka1

Shahrukh Khan starrer ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ was the introduction vehicle of the feisty performing artist Anushka Sharma. Notwithstanding ‘Rab Ne…’ did for her what ‘Om Shanti Om’ did for Deepika or ‘Dabang’ did for Sonakshi.Anushka got off to a flying start in her very first film that had the stamp of Yash Raj banner and the omnipresence of the King Khan. Anushka, as per reports, had a 3 film contract with the Yash Rajs and even though she may deny this piece of news, there is no denying the fact that her next two releases have come from the same factory.

After the super hit ‘Rab Ne…’ which gave Anushka the platform she needed, she tried to conjure up something special with ‘Badmaash Company’. The film, however, sank and the only thing that got noticed was her yellow sarong and her bed scene with Shahid Kapoor.

But just when the critics were about to write her off, ‘Band Baaja Baraat’ happened and the equations changed. A refreshing take on wedding and romance, Anushka was the only well-known face in the low-hyped film. But despite being a slow-starrer, BBB picked up momentum after being given rave reviews. Anushka’s performance earned her many brownie points.


So, with 2 hits out of 3, her score is pretty impressive at the moment and it is to be seen how the future augurs for her. She shall be next seen in the February release of ‘Patiala House’ opposite actor Akshay Kumar.

Vidya Balan is getting bolder role in Ekta Kapoor’s film

vidya-balan-wallpaper[1]1

The buzz is that Vidya has all but agreed to play the lead role in Ekta Kapoor’s film Ragini MMS, which is a based on a bold subject and will have many explicit scenes. In fact, Kapoor had previously talked with Kangana Ranaut for the role, but the actress had chickened out as she wasn’t in the mood to do something so bold.

Now, Vidya is Ekta’s best bet. Why? Because Vidya is already acting in Dirty Picture, which is based on the life of the south sex bomb Silk Smitha.


The spokesperson for Ekta’s company has refused to confirm or deny the fact that Vidya has been approached, which means a deal is indeed in the works.

Katrina's Sheila Ki Jawani brings crowds to TMK

0 comments
katrina-kaif1
Katrina Kaif’s sensuous Sheila Ki Jawani number brought in the audiences in droves to watch Farah Khan’s Tees Maar Khan, with the movie garnering 90-95 percent occupancy on the day of its release Friday.
With their curiosity whetted by Katrina’s slithery moves in television promos of the film, the Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif starrer was a hit on its first day.
However, industry insiders predict the huge turnout is mostly due to Katrina’s dance number.
’We are having good advance bookings for Tees Maar Khan and the initial response is good, with almost 90 percent occupancy, but the content is not at all as per expectations,’ said Yogesh Raizada, corporate head (cinemas) of Wave Cinemas.
’Audiences are mostly queuing up to watch Katrina Kaif in Sheila Ki Jawani, and that’s about it,’ he added.
Amit Awasthi, senior manager (programming and operations) of Spice Cinemas, said: ’The movie has opened to a fantastic initial with over 95 percent occupancy and the audiences are coming in mostly due to the hot item number,’ said Awasthi.
A source from PVR cinemas also said: ’The initial for the movie is good at about 80-90 percent but the content is not getting appreciation. The audiences are only here for the item song and not for the movie per se.’
Co-produced by Three’s Company, Hari Om Entertainment and UTV Motion Pictures, the previews for the movie held on Dec 21, Dec 22 and Dec 23 in select cities in Britain have, however, grossed over Rs.7.5 million.

In the US, the previews grossed Rs.4 million on Wednesday alone, according to a statement by UTV. While in the Middle East, it has made around Rs.9.5 million on its opening day.
Another movie that was released is Ajay Devgn-Kajol starrer live action animation Toonpur Ka Superhero that is still waiting to pick up with only 20-30 percent occupancy on an average.
