The movie for which he all but shaved his head has not met his expectations. ‘Ghajini’, directed by A Murugadoss, is complete and the director reportedly held a special screening of the film recently for Aamir. After watching the movie Aamir wasn’t very thrilled. His scrutinizing eyes singled out scenes which he believed needed to be re-shot. Respecting Aamir’s judgment, Murugadoss has reportedly decided to re-shoot some scenes.The only problem is that Aamir is presently shooting Raju Hirani’s film 3 Idiots in which he has a different hairstyle than that of ‘Ghajini’. So Aamir won’t be able to reshoot for ‘Ghajini’ until he wraps up ‘3 Idiots’, which means at least a month. Aamir is a star whose opinion is respected by peers in the industry. Recently, directorSanjay Gadhvi showed Aamir his movie Kidnap to get his opinion. Aamir gave thumbs-up to the film.Though some industrywalas think Aamir crosses his line at times and interferes in a director’s work, most of the people who work with him. And after showing his prowess behind the camera in Taare Zameen Par , Aamir has only gained more respect in tinsel town. Posted by Cool Blogger at 10:59 PM 0 comments Labels: Aamir Khan, Ghajani Barbara is Threat to Suzanne Khan’s Conjugal Life. Mexican actress Barbara Mori sizzling hot chemistry between Hrithik Roshan and Barbara in Anurag Basu Kites is worth watching.The Roshans may not be talking about their upcoming movie Kites, but the chemistry between Hrithik and Barbara promises to burn the screen. The Bollywood heartthrob, is having the time of his life, shooting for “Kites” in exotic locales like Las Vegas, New Mexico and Los Angeles. But daddy Rakesh Roshan, the producer and now also the director of the movie, is having sweaty palms because of his son’s raunchy antics. Hrithik, hitherto known to be a perfect gentleman and a wonderful husband is reportedly giving in to the allure of co-actress Barbara Mori. The stunning shooting locations are heaving a great effect on Hrithik’s mind, and heart as well.Hrithik is enjoying the umpteen “roll in the hay” scenes in the film with Barbara so much, that he is carrying off some of it off screen. It is believed that Papa Rakesh Roshan was extremely upset with Hrithik’s attitude. News of Hrithik’s closeness with the hot actress was making the rounds in Mumbai too. Rakesh Roshan was annoyed by the development. Bobby and Anurag are friends, besides being a great team. Anurag appreciates Bobby’s work and gives him a free hand. But Roshan had his own ideas of how the movie should look. He did not agree with Bobby’s style and would interfere in camera angles and light shot etc. Initially Bobby kept quiet as Rakesh is a senior filmmaker an creative differences happen on every set. But as the days went by, Bobby felt his work as a cinematographer was increasingly getting undermined”. Rakesh had apparently told Bobby to do the shot from another angle But Bobby wanted to try a different angle. Rakesh was furious as Bobby had disregarded his instructions, and made his displeasure clear in front of the entire unit. Bobby felt so humiliated about this dressing down that he stormed off the sets and took a flight straight back to Mumbai. Barbara, the on screen mistress is proving to be a potential threat to Suzanne Khan’s serene conjugal life. Earlier, Hrithik Roshan was also rumoured to be smitten by Kareena Kapoor. Hope Suzanne learns some moves from Hrithik’s on screen wife Kangana Ranaut in “Kites”, or she will lose the string over her hot dashing husband!

In the film, which is based on Akshay’s life, the actor has worked on the song’s tune with famous pop group Rhythm Dhol Bass, popularly known as RDB. The lyrics of the song are: • Chandni Chowk to China… • Chandni Chowk se aayaa yeh ladka • Lagaye tadke pe tadka… • Chandni Chowk to China… Akshay is quite excited about the film. Chandni Chowk to China traces Akshay’s journey right from his early days in Chandni Chowk in Delhi to Bangkok, where he worked as a chef. The song captures the actor’s journey and goes on to show how he came to Bollywood and is now a superstar.While Akshay was in Los Angeles shooting for his film Kambakth Ishq, he would personally call up the RDB members and work on the song after pack-up.

But here is some food for thought.It is well know that he is an unprofessional painter and paints for pleasure. Salman feels happy in gifting his portraits to his dear ones and one person whom he gifts very often is his ladylove Katrina Kaif. But recently, to her surprise, Sallu has gifted Kat her own portrait and the lady is touched by his move. Before he left for 40 days shoot to UK for London Dreams, he invited Kat for a dinner at his home and gift-wrapped the portrait. When Kat unveiled the portrait at her home, she was overjoyed, Salman smiled at her lovingly and said, "It’s you." In the past, Sallu has humiliated his beau in many ways but this is surely a way to win over his sweetheart. Posted by Cool Blogger at 3:28 AM 0 comments Labels: Katrina Kaif, Salman Khan Imraan Matches Minisha in an Underwater Sequence in Kidnap Minissha Lamba is a water baby which is clear from the promos of Kidnap. But who would have thought Imran Khan would parallel his co-star while they were shooting for the film in Mauritius? It seems Imran and Minissha have shot a chilling underwater sequence in the film, which is among the highlights of the film and also the point when she gets kidnapped. Both the actors rehearsed for the scene for almost a fortnight before taking the 'dive! Confirms director Sanjay Gadhvi, "We trained in Mumbai in a pool. It was an elaborate shoot with a dedicated underwater DOP and a standby team of divers for rescue. I've used the same underwater specialists as the ones used in Dhoom:2. While shooting the scene I was on the boat watching the shot on the monitor, which was attached to the underwater camera by cables. We had special communication equipment through which Imran and Minissha could hear me say 'action' and 'cut' while they were underwater." Seems like this is among the many chills and thrills Kidnap has to offer. Posted by Cool Blogger at 3:17 AM 0 comments Labels: Imran Khan, Kidnap, Minisha Lamba Kareena made her Birthday Unique and Special On the eve of Kareena's 28th birthday, her mom Babita suggested that she should make it really special. Not only did she have Saif accompanying her in the cold climates of north India, but she also got the opportunity to share her birthday with the numerous Jawans who were present at Kargil. Both Kareena and Saif really enjoyed and felt privileged to have spent time in the midst of these brave soldiers, who defend our country. On asking Kareena, she said, "As we were passing by Kargil one day prior to my birthday, mom told me to visit the Jawans as it would be a unique experience and a once in a lifetime opportunity to get their blessings as well. Both Saif and I were excited as well as amazed with the way the soldiers live in such extreme climates and still manage to keep calm under pressure, which gives us an immense sense of pride. We wish them luck and not just them but all the soldiers of our country and wish to thank them for all that they have sacrificed and done for us - the people."

Jacquet had directed March of the Penguins (Marche de l'empereur, La) for which he won an Oscar in 2006 in the Best Documentary, Features category. Incidentally, Bachchan had dubbed as a narrator for the Hindi version of the documentary, which was released in India. Currently in Paris, Bachchan writes on his blog, "Meetings here have been going well. There are some more to be conducted tomorrow and from the looks of it there may be consent on the French project. It will be in English, produced and directed by French personnel, those who made March of the Penguin, the Oscar winner and it will be set in India and France. Perhaps work starts next year end. That is all that one can talk of right now." Additionally, Bachchan is also in talks with Hollywood writer Paul Schrader, who has written Martin Scorsese's films like Taxi Driver and Raging Bull amongst a host of others. However, talks are still in the preliminary stages and Bachchan says he shall need to see the script before he considers any further Posted by Cool Blogger at 5:26 AM 0 comments Labels: Amitabh Bachchan Abhishek Bachchan in Bigg Boss-2 He may also interact with Rahul or Raja. Abhishek Bachchan, who worked with Shilpa Shetty in the film “Phir Milenge”, will be coming to meet her at the Bigg Boss house.

Abhishek may also get to interact with either Rahul Mahajan or Raja Chaudhary, whoever is 'evicted' for two days from the house. Shreyas Talpade, Amrita Rao, Ekta Kapoor and Tusshar Kapoor are some of the celebrities who till now have visited the Bigg Boss house. Posted by Cool Blogger at 5:17 AM 0 comments Labels: Abhishek Bachchan, Big Boss-2, Shilpa Shetty Shamita Singha spices herself for PETA There are one million ads in the newspapers these days with those girls going semi nude with handsome dudes screaming about 'Spicing up life'. The best way to 'Spice up your life' is to go vegetarian! And seconding that will be none other than the gorgeous model Shamita Singha, who has recently shot for the new pro-vegetarian PETA ad. The resultant of the ad was something that really lives up to the saying of 'Spice up your life'. If she was not 'hot' enough, she lies amidst a pool of red hot chillies 'covering' her up! Shamita said, "I turned vegetarian when I was quite young because I realized that if I really loved animals, I could not eat them. And that meat is not healthy and not good for your body." And for those who wondered about the secret of her oh-so-sexy figure, here is what she had to say, "I am a vegetarian, and so I eat a lot of veggies, salads and fruits, and those foods are alive, so I am alive! And in terms of working out, I get all my energy from veggies and fresh stuff." Just in case Shamita's message of spicing up your life does not reach the target audience, then, the adjoining snap will ensure it does. Posted by Cool Blogger at 4:56 AM 0 comments Labels: Cover Girls, PETA, Shamita Singha Thursday, September 25, 2008 Hashar slated for worldwide release A Punjabi movie, 'Hashar', based on student politics in the state is slated for worldwide release Sep 26, the director of the film said. The movie is an amalgamation of rural and urban Punjab. It is a story of a boy who comes from a village to the city for higher education. The film shows how he engages in student politics and how it impacts his personal life,' said Babbu Maan, Punjabi singer who is playing the lead character in the movie. "The movie portrays both the positive and negative shades of student politics. It has a message for everyone, especially for the student fraternity," said Maan. The film was shot in Chandigarh and Ludhiana. "To gain first hand experience, I remained with student leaders of Panjab University for many days," Maan said. "This is the movie for today's youth and I believe that every youngster will relate to this movie. The movie is based on university elections, so to give it an authentic feel we have done maximum shooting in the Panjab University campus in Chandigarh,"said Gaurav Trehan, director of the movie. 'We are also releasing this movie in the US and all the major counties of Europe Sep 26,' Trehan said. Posted by Cool Blogger at 1:27 AM 0 comments Labels: Gossip, Hashar, Trehan Shamita Shetty’s greatest passion Shamita Shetty might be busy exploring her new role as one of the Board of Directors in S2, but her greatest passion is and will always remain acting. Taking about her new role Shamita said, “Right now I am taking a backseat and seeing how work is done. Production is very new for me. Shilpa has been in the industry for about 15 years. She obviously knows much more than I do. I am just observing and learning how things are done now. That is what I am doing for our first film.” Shamita has done very few films in her acting career which started with the much talked about film Mohabbatein in 2000. So does the pretty girl have any regrets? “I wish better work came my way. I wish in my eight years I had done more films. But I think everything happens because of destiny. This is how it was meant for me. So I am okay with it.” For all the fans that are dying to see her on silver screen, Shamita will be seen in a promotional video for the film Hari Puttar- A Comedy of Terrors .

The week gone by witnessed much glamour with an array of Bollywood stars and beauty queens scorching the ramp for 11 of the country's top designers in a celebration of luxe and opulence at HDIL's India Couture Week 2008 fashion show. This was India's first ever 'couture week', a complete star–studded affair. And the show–stealers of this 6–day gala event were none other than the dazzling Bollywood beauties like Karishma Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Shilpa Shetty, Neha Dhupia. Each of these pretty lasses displayed the spectacular designs by the topmost designers of India. The couture week kick started with Ritu Kumar's collections displayed by Priyanka Chopra, Neha Dhupia, Riya and Raima Sen, etc. followed by Karisma Kapoor's elegant look created by designer Manav Gangwani. While Day 4 of couture week saw proud pa Anil Kapoor's daughter Sonam Kapoor showcasing lovely collections of Designer Anamika Khanna than day 5 was arrested by the sultry siren Shilpa Shetty, who sizzled the ramp (with impeccable Indian bride attire trimming it with a bride's coy smile) in Tarun Tahiliani's chic collections. All these divine goddesses looked stunningly beautiful in their attires. And it becomes quite unfair to compare these beauty icons. It is now upto you to decide... Who grabbed maximum eye balls! Who looked the best in the entire Couture Week!

"I am not blindly adapting the Iranian film 'Children Of Heaven'. I am moving completely away from the original material to set the story in Assam with the insurgency as the backdrop.I saw the Iranian film and its Singaporean version 'Home Run'. I'm not following Majidi's screenplay from the Iranian film at all. I'm only retaining the core of the original. I'm Indianising the screenplay completely, changing and adding more characters," says Priyadarshan. Giving Darsheel company in the film would be a new child-actress named Zia. She will play his sister. Priyadarshan chose Zia from the many hopefuls who auditioned for the role. Atul Kulkarni and Rituparna Sengupta play the two kids' parents. Originally the director wanted Rahul Bose for the father's part, but the dates didn't work out. So Priyadarshan had to be satisfied with Atul Kulkarni . Posted by Cool Blogger at 1:29 AM 0 comments Labels: Children of Heaven, Darseel Safary, Priyadarshan Monday, September 22, 2008 Akshay is the King of Bollywood The Amul hoardings recently seen across town, created quite a few murmurs in the film industry. The hoardings projected Akshay Kumar as the number one hero, while the two Khans - Shah Rukh and Aamir - are shown handing out buttered toasts to Akshay with the tagline saying, ‘Singh is King’. Apparently, this running down of their numero uno position has not gone down well with SRK and Aamir. When Mr.Rahul DaCunha, head honcho of DaCunha Associates, was asked about the concept of this particular ad. He said, “For the moment at least, after the release of Sinngh is King, Akshay was considered to be the number one and people too have accepted him as the number one hero. Even the newspapers clearly declared him as the number one hero, it’s not as though it’s our take entirely.” But it’s true that there have been rumblings in the industry questioning the concept. But audiences take such ad campaigns more like a joke. People have to be sporting enough to laugh off these matters.” Posted by Cool Blogger at 4:15 AM 0 comments Labels: Akshay Kumar, Shahrukh Khan Kat-SRK in Yash Raj's Next Katrina Kaif seems to be riding the crest of a bright new wave of success.

She had always wanted to act opposite Aamir Khan. The actress is a big fan of the Khan and has watched several of his films many times over. Therefore working with him Raj Kumar Hirani's 3 Idiots is literally like a dream come true for her The actress, who stands on the threshold of her 27th birthday, is currently in Ladakh, shooting with Aamir for the movie. This film, she is reported to have said, is the best gift that she could have received. The actress moves on from Ladakh to Venice, where she is shooting for Kamabkht Ishq. The actress could not have had things better. After Jab We Met, she is not only recognized as a glamour queen but also as an actress of repute. It is quite an enviable fear, which not many heroines can hope to accomplish. The bag of films that the actress has besides 3 Idiots and Kambakht Ishq are Mr Aur Mrs Khanna, Karan Johar's Next and Agent Vinod for Saif's production house. She is on a roll and we wish her a lot of success and love in the year ahead.

The announcement was made by the Sunil Darshan, chairman of the jury set up by the Film Federation of India (FFI). 'Taare Zameen Par', which won critical acclaim as well as mass popularity, is a story of a child's bonding with his teacher. Posted by Cool Blogger at 12:51 AM 0 comments Labels: Aamir Khan, Oscars Nomination, Taare Zameen Par Preity goes to School Acting wise, the pretty Preity Zinta may not exactly be a (late) Smita Patil or a Konkona Sen Sharma, but she has proved her histrionic capabilities with films like SANGHARSH (1999), KYA KEHNA (2000), VEER ZAARA (2004) and recently in Rituparno Ghosh's THE LAST LEAR. But that does not stop Preity from honing her acting skills further as proved by the preparations she has put in for her role in Samir Karnik's upcoming Diwali release, HEROES. Preity plays a widow in HEROES and the role required her to speak with an almost perfect Punjabi accent. Now Preity is from Shimla and educated at a public school there and so despite knowing Punjabi she was not fluent in the language. So she went to a top acting school and got herself trained and tutored for the same. The results are there for all to see in the promos of HEROES, where Preity looks every inch a part of the character. Posted by Cool Blogger at 12:51 AM 0 comments Labels: Heroes, Preity Zinta Manav Gangwani show at HDIL Couture Posted by Cool Blogger at 12:51 AM 0 comments Labels: HDIL Couture fashion week, Manav Gangwani show Minisha Lucky to be Alive Minissha Lamba's much talked about KIDNAP saw the actress push frontiers as far as her previous box–office outings are concerned. And we aren't just talking about her new bikini–licious body! Everyone knows that Minissha has quite an adventurous streak in her and is quite a water baby. The schedule of KIDNAP in Mauritius involved scenes where she was required to take a dip in the sea. During one such shot, so engrossed was Minissha in her mid–sea swim that she did not realize that the currents had pushed her far from where she was supposed to be. The film's cameraman was the first to realize that she was nowhere in the frame! The crew panicked as the underwater currents had pushed her about 2 kilometers away from the coastline while Minissha was blissfully unaware of the situation. It took the crew ten minutes to finally spot the petite actress, much to everyone's relief. A speedboat was sent to retrieve her immediately! Director Sanjay Gadhvi confirmed the news. ''It was scary to say the least but all's well that ends well!'' he remarked. KIDNAP is this year's grand Id attraction, being relased worldwide by Indian Films – Studio 18 on Wednesday October 1st. It is Sanjay Dutt's first release of 2008 and new–age heartthrob Imran Khan's first release after his maiden smash hit, JAANE TU YA JAANE NA. Posted by Cool Blogger at 12:51 AM 0 comments Labels: Kidnap, Minisha Lamba Ajay Devgan invite to his U.K. fans for a One On One Thursday, Sept 18, saw a breaking news in London's Observer series newspapers that our very own Bollywood actor Ajay Devgan has planned a never before idea to interact with his U.K fans. U.K's second largest newspaper company Trinity Mirror's Bollywood Columnist of the Harrow Observer newspaper Devansh Patel covered Ajay's two big releases Golmaal Returns and London Dreams. Ajay Devgan will be in London for 45 days along with Vipul and Salman for the principal shoot of London Dreams. The actor turned director came up with this unique idea to interact with his fans in the U.K by sending personal replies to each and every fan of his who emails him on his U.K. email ID which is ajaydevganuk@gmail.com . Away from the hustle bustle of Mumbai city, Ajay will have quite some time to know his fans one on one. He wanted to do something different than just blogging. Thanks to the Observer series newspapers which carried the story, the one day old news has already garnered quite a lot of excitement in London." The personal invite from Ajay Devgan reads - "Hello Londoners. I am coming to your city to shoot my next film London Dreams on September 27. Come and share your dreams with me - what you like and what you don't, or ask me what you want and I'll reply personally. Email me on ajaydevganuk@gmail.com and experience the magic. It's 'U, Me Aur Hum' time guys! Can't wait to hear from you all". Posted by Cool Blogger at 12:51 AM 0 comments Labels: Ajay Devgan, London Dreams Friday, September 19, 2008 Ritu Kumari rocks the HDIL Couture fashion week. The show stopper of the evening Tuesday was Bollywood actress and former Miss India World 2008 Priyanka Chopra in a maroon lehnga with intricate zardozi work all over and a green choli with a big emerald green maang tikka on her forehead. Apart from her, Bollywood actress and former Miss India 2002 Neha Dhupia, actresses Riya and Raima Sen, regaining Miss India World 2008 Parvathy Omanakuttan, Miss India Earth 2008 Tanvi Vyas and Miss India Earth 2006 Amruta Patki also walked the ramp for the designer. Miss India 1976 Anna Bredmeyer, Sonalika Oberoi and Shyamolee Verma brought back the magic of yesterday's era on the ramp. The collection interprets Indian fashion in a way that is so aesthetically grand, rich, classical and exotic at the same time that it makes for a look that could stand out on any ramp in any part of the world," Kumar said after the show.The colour and sensuous quality of Indian clothing comes through with a vigour and a sense of bindaas (carefree) style that rejuvenates traditional norms with its bohemian take on fashion. Kumar's collection was divided into four different lines. The opener was a collection of black and gold evening gowns, chogas, long tunics, saris, lehngas, anarkali suits and Kutchi gathered coats worn over divided loose pants with dhapka, mukaish and a range of metallic embellishments on them. The second line comprised a white and silver collection. Gota work and silver trims dominated the embroidery portion of heavy weight saris, lehngas and gowns. The third line was an example of designer's imagination that she terms 'modern couture'. Kumar showcased a beautiful and elegant collection of coats, trench and bomber jackets, all trimmed with leather and worn with tights and boots. The fourth line was in soft pastels with peshwaz and lehngas in subtle colors with intricate embellishments, dull gold and metallic threads.

Shruti Agrawal plays an NRI girl who comes to India and falls in love with Himesh. Shruti has been a known face in the modeling world and has also attended Anupam Kher's acting classes. Director Satish Kaushik says, "Since Himesh is playing double role in the film there are two leading ladies, one of them being Shruti Agrawal who has graduated from Anupam's acting class and has been a model too. We have an actress from the south as the second leading lady.” "Studio 18 and Himesh had asked me to direct the film. It was Himesh who decided the name of the film. After working with him in Karzzzz, I have realized his potential as a singer, composer, and as an actor. I think he is phenomenal and perfect for the part. It is a fun filled comedy film, which was mainly shot in India and abroad. Please do not ask me the story as that's something I really cannot reveal," adds Satish Kaushik. When asked about the music Satish Kaushik says, "The music of Hhey Gujju is completely different from Karzzzz as it will have a very Gujarati flavor to it.

The film's leading lady Preity Zinta had joined Deepa in Toronto for the Festival screening. "And that's when Preity dubbed her portion of the film in Hindi", informs Deepa. The Punjabi film is being dubbed into Hindi as a two-language film on the insistence of the film's Indian distributor Ravi Chopra. However, Deepa insists that the Hindi version will have a very restricted screening. “The language of the film is Punjabi," she insists. The entire cast barring Preity is from Toronto.

The movie will be screened in the competition section on World Cinema at the fortnight-long festival starting Oct 15. The LFF screening will also mark the movie's Britain and European premiere. The film is being released in India on Sep 19. A comedy, 'Welcome to Sajjanpur' is a satirical take on the reality of the contemporary rural India, especially on the government's much-vaunted literacy drive. Shreyal Talpade, Ravi Kishen, Divya Dutta and Amrita Rao essay the key roles in the movie. Benegal, who is better known for his thought-provoking serious movies, takes a detour and tells a light-hearted delightful tale in the movie. He recently said he was inspired to make the movie by a unit hand, a light man of his own production unit. 'Some time back the light man, who had never gone to school, got married to a girl who has some education. Since she lives in a village in UP and he in Mumbai, he would ask others to write letters on his behalf to his wife. That inspired me to weave a story around his new-found life,' Benegal said. This is how the movie came into Existense.

While Saif has been there for a recce of his untitled home production (Illuminati Films) directed by Imtiaz Ali (shooting starts September 16), Kareena was there for a ribbon-cutting event of a newly launched spa. When we contacted Saif and Kareena on Saturday night, they were having dinner at the ITC Maurya Sheraton (where they are staying) on Sardar Patel Marg at the Diplomatic Enclave, they were having dinner. A visibly disturbed Saif says, "We are deeply hurt and very worried about what's been happening all around us." Saif adds that though they are also nervous about stepping out anywhere because of the blasts they were physically unhurt. "No harm has come to us. We are fine. Even my shooting was to start from December 16 at various places and we hope to go on schedule as planned," Saif signs off.

And she is none other than Karisma Kapoor, one of the most popular stars of the nineties. Karisma took a break from films following marriage to industrialist Sanjay Kapoor in 2003. Since then, rumours have been rife of a probable comeback with a number of films like Onir's You And I, Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag, a sequel to Andaz Apna Apna and the Hindi remake of the Tamil film, June R. The actress had earlier denied working in any of the above projects. Karisma confesses that she has had a laid back attitude till now but is all geared up to make a comeback. She says that she is in the middle of finalizing a film and would announce it next month or so. Karisma adds that the film in question may not necessarily be a heroine-centric one but the role much to her liking. Posted by Cool Blogger at 4:15 AM 0 comments Labels: Karishma Kapoor Amrita upset and feel unjust Amrita Arora is very upset with the makers of her upcoming film Heroes. And she does seem to have a good reason for being miffed. Amrita had a meaty role comprising eight scenes and also a song with Sohail Khan in the film. However, four out of the eight scenes have been completely chopped off and even the song is no longer part of the film. As a result, Amrita has now stopped promoting the film as she is obviously upset with the director and the producer of the film. She did not attend the press conference and media interviews held at Mehboob Studios recently and did not even attend the Lalbaughcha Raja promotional event to make her disapproval evident. When contacted, Amrita refused to comment on the issue. When contacted, Samir Karnik, the director of Heroes had a different story to tell. “There is nothing like that. During the press conference of Heroes, Amrita was shooting for Golmaal Returns and during the Lalbaughcha Raja event, she was unwell. I am sure she will attend the next press conference that we are having on September 18. And the issue of chopping her song doesn't arise as she had no song in the film with Sohail to begin with” . She had a pivotal part in the multi-starrer, which also stars Slaman Khan, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Mithun Chakraborthy, Preity Zinta and others. Amrita was very excited about the film when she signed it. She had also shot for a foot-tapping song at Madh Island with Sohail Khan. She was in for a rude shock to learn that quite a few of her scenes have been chopped and even the song ‘Deewana’ for which she had worked so hard has been chopped to maintain the length of the film.” Posted by Cool Blogger at 1:23 AM 0 comments Labels: Amrita Arora, Heroes, Samir Karnik Monday, September 15, 2008 Rani to Miss Durga Puja Rani Mukherji is rather unhappy with friend and producer, Aditya Chopra. Going by what happened a few days ago at Yash Raj studios, it seems that, for Aditya, work comes first. Apparently, the production unit of Anurag Sinha's yet-untitled film is scheduled to shoot in Amritsar and Chandigarh during the Durga Puja. As a result, Rani's plans for the Durga Puja with her family have gone kaput. While her family will celebrate the Puja in town, she will be off shooting for Yash Raj's film. What's more, it didn't help when Rani expressed her displeasure at the prospect of missing out on the Puja, to Adi. Recently, Rani and Aditya had an argument when Rani requested Adi to change the dates so she could be in town to attend the Puja. But Adi didn't budge and maintained that the schedule was a combination of dates of several actors and no alterations could be made. Rani has no option but to pack her bags and set off for the shoot. She tried arguing with Adi to give her some time off, but in vain. Every year, Rani, her parents and brother Raja Mukherji celebrate the Puja in great enthusiasm at the Poddar School Grounds in Santacruz. Last year, in spite of having a hectic shooting schedule, she made sure that she took active part in the celebrations in the city. This year the Puja is being planned on a more grand scale, and the venue may even be shifted to Vile Parle.

With Rakhi Tandon, Monica Bedi and Ketki Dave's eviction, the glamour quotient of the house too has dipped. The production house has apparently zeroed in on Diana Hayden to add to the glam quotient.

Several names were being considered, but Akshay wanted only Katrina. And though the actress had other prior commitments, she juggled her dates to be part of Akshay’s first home production. Akshay confirmed, “Yes, we have zeroed in on Katrina. The film is special to me and Katrina has been a lucky mascot. Moreover, I feel audiences like seeing us together on screen.” The film will go on the floor in November with the hit starcast of Hera Pheri — Suniel Shetty and Paresh Rawal and director Priyadarshan calling the shots. “It’s a hilarious film and will be completely shot abroad,” said Akshay. Posted by Cool Blogger at 2:58 AM 0 comments Labels: Akshay Kumar, DE DANA DHAN, Katrina Kaif Deepika is Every Director's Desire The Lucky Stas are shining high for Deepika Padukone. Filmmakers have considered her to be a crowd puller. They feel that even her small appearance may prove wonders and may result in box-office success also. Looking at her growing popularity, director Priyadarshan has signed in Deepika for a cameo in his upcoming flick Billo Barber which has Shahrukh and Nana Patekar in pivotal roles. Irrfan Khan has the main role in the movie. Not many know this but it was Priyadarshan who was to introduce Deepika to the cine world but things did not work out accordingly and instead she was launched by Farah Khan in Om Shanti Om. Priyadarshan did not have any ill-feeling regarding missing Deepika but was happy that she was associated with Farah's film and got to taste of success in her first attempt. Talking about his shelved film with Deepika, Priyadarshan confirmed saying that Deepika was being considered for a film called Pirates – about music piracy. But the film didn't work out. He is glad to know that Deepika made her debut with a film as successful as OSO, and that too with Shahrukh. Posted by Cool Blogger at 2:50 AM 0 comments Labels: Deepika Padukone, Om Shanti Om, Priyadarshan Salman and Priety together this Diwali Salman Khan and Preity Zinta are being seen together in Heroes Two years after being paired together in Jaane Mann. Incidentally both the films are Diwali releases and while Jaane Mann was released on 20th October, 2006, Heroes is arriving exactly two years later on 24th October 2008. Salman and Preity would be hoping though that Heroes does well since Jaane Mann of being a well made film, was massacred at the box office due to King Khan’s Don. They play cameos in the film and are a part of one of the many segments in Heroes. There is this entire Sunny Deol-Bobby Deol track and also the one where Mithun and Dino come together. The film basically tells the journey of two youngsters (Sohail Khan and Vatsal Seth) as they come across all these 'real heroes'.'' However, even though Salman and Preity aren't seen throughout the length of the film, the couple does spell success, as witnessed from the films they have done in the past which have gone on to be box office successes. When they came together for the first time, Har Dil Jo Pyaar Karega, the film was a hit. Their next outing, Chori Chori Chupke Chupke was successful as well. Dil Ne Jise Apna Kaha was a flop though but Preity has a small role in the film. They looked good together in Jaane Mann and it would certainly have been a success had the film not collided with Don.'' Directed by Samir Karnik, Heroes would be Salman Khan's second film in one month itself. A fortnight earlier, i.e. 10th October, Salman would also be seen in a special appearance in Hello. Posted by Cool Blogger at 2:29 AM 0 comments Labels: Heroes, Preity Zinta, Salman Khan Saturday, September 13, 2008 The Last Lear fails to impress the Audience Rituparno Ghosh, one of the finest storytellers from Bengal, chooses Utpal Dutt's play 'Aajker Shahjahan' as the premise for his new endeavour "THE LAST LEAR". The plotline is the type that holds appeal for a miniscule section of audience. The problem with THE LAST LEAR is that there's too much Shakespeare in the movie,which everyone cannot dissolve. Besides, all theatre themes may not hold good on cinematic level. Yet, there's no denying that THE LAST LEAR has its share of engrossing moments. A few individualistic sequences are noteworthy as also the portrayal of characters by some prominent names. But that's not enough! In a nutshell, THE LAST LEAR fails to connect. At best, it may find some patronage at Festivals, but there's nothing for Indian moviegoers. Harry [Amitabh Bachchan] lives for acting, loves theatre, adores Shakespeare and absolutely detests cinema. Enter Siddharth [Arjun Rampal], a movie director. He is smart, Harry finds out in the very first meeting. He is glad to have found a cerebral partner to have a conversation with. Slowly, they bond over coffees, vodka and conversations. Harry decides to work in Siddharth's film. New relationships blossom. But an incident changes everything… Director Rituparno Ghosh's choice of the subject has its limitations. It's good to think different, but THE LAST LEAR is abstract. From the writing point of view, a number of points remain unexplained and even if they are, it's difficult to decipher. Like, for instance, Shefali Shah's hatred for Preity is unexplainable. Also, the accident and the aftermath lack clarity. Why does Arjun want a retake? Why does he want Amitabh to perform the death-defying jump all over again? This, when he knows that Amitabh can't see without his glasses. This and many more questiopns remains unanswered. Amitabh Bachchan is the life of THE LAST LEAR. But it's definitely not his best performance so far. The actor has delivered stronger performances in the past. He's good, not great. Arjun is evolving into a fine actor. After ROCK ON!!, this is another performance that would fetch Arjun laurels. Preity is very effective. Shefali Shah is superb. Divya Dutta is wasted. Prosenjit is alright. Jishu impresses. On the whole, THE LAST LEAR has something for the Festival circuit, but nothing for the cinema-going audience in India.

Yes, the date for the theatrical release of the next blockbuster thriller from Bollywood, RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES is now no more a secret. This spine chilling movie from Vishesh Films is going to hit worldwide screens on 23rd January 2009. This is the most anticipated release of 2009, with absolutely no other film to match up to its theme and style. It's definitely going to be a chilly winter that will keep you shuddering!! RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES is being directed by Mohit Suri and stars Emraan Hashmi, Kangana Ranaut and Adhyayan Suman. ''It is definitely thrilling to be ready to present Vishesh Films' next film to the world,'' says Mukesh Bhatt, ''RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES has been much talked about and long awaited by everyone, so here it is! Get ready to be spooked!'' Though only very few people are aware of the exact story of RAAZ- THE MYSTERY CONTINUES it is believed to be a supernatural thriller dealing with the myths and superstitions that are still widely existent in the contemporary Indian society. The film will tend to challenge one's beliefs about paranormal phenomena. The blockbuster music of Vishesh Films' JANNAT - which is still ruling the charts - was released on Sony BMG. RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES takes this association a step forward with Sony BMG. Contrary to popular belief, RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES is not a sequel to the musical blockbuster RAAZ - which is one of the biggest musical blockbusters of all time and the only blockbuster musical thriller of this decade!! It is an industry claim that Vishesh Films is amongst the very few that can create and carry off a film in the thriller genre, on par with stylized film making. So RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES has many people awaiting a watch! According to insiders, the entire shoot for RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES is complete. Post-production, which involves exceptional special effects is now in the process. Another scoop from insiders is that the music of RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES is a notch above JANNAT!! Though most are skeptical on how this is possible, the select few who have heard the music simply vouch for the fact that Raju Singh and other composers have done a fantastic job!! Shridhar Subramaniam, Managing Director Sony BMG says, ''We have had a very successful association with the Bhatts for JANNAT. The music of this film has ruled the charts and continues to be a hot favourite. I'm very certain that RAAZ - THE MYSTERY CONTINUES is also set to be a tremendous sensation and a great experience. We're all looking forward to this release.'' Looks like Sony BMG and Vishesh Films are ready to create more records across charts!!

Preity Zinta has played the glam doll to perfection in many films. But in her next release, The Last Lear, the bubbly actress would be seen in a different look from what she has been sporting in her last few films. Preity would be seen wearing some really beautiful sarees and salwar suits in the film. One look at this picture and you will agree that she indeed looks ravishing even in a saree. Preity herself loved the experience of getting decked up in a saree. "What a pleasant change it was, from all the dolled up work I have done. I got to play Shabnam, someone so real! I love my look in the film. Ever since the posters of The Last Lear are out, the compliments haven't stopped coming in! Everyone's look in the film is extremely different. You can trust Rituparno Ghosh to surprise everyone with his films, even his own actors!", says the bubbly actress. The Last Lear, which opens across cinema halls on September 12th 2008, has generated tremendous curiosity amongst audiences ever since the promos began. People are inquisitive to find out the roles that Amitabh Bachchan, Preity Zinta and Arjun Rampal play in this hatke film. In fact, Amitabh's performance in The Last Lear has been hailed by many as the best of his illustrious career. As for Preity, considering the fact that she has become so choosy about selecting the right films and that her last release (Jhoom Barabar Jhoom) was in June 2007, all her fans must surely be charged up to see their favorite actress don a brand new avatar! The wait would be worth it, we are sure!

Shilpa swayed sensuously to the item number without charging a penny from Dharma Productions. Shilpa did not want to discuss the monetary aspect of the number. She said" Karan is a dear friend and I wouldn’t let money be an issue between us at all. It’s an extremely chic song with leggy movements.Since practically the whole of Miami lives on the beaches, the number was shot almost entirely there.” The song, choreographed by Vaibhavi Merchant had Shilpa lip synching ‘Shut up and bounce’ all over the beaches of Miami. When Karan Johar initially approached Shetty for the number, she was reluctant, as she was getting into film production and she didn’t need to do an item number at that stage, no matter how good the offer was. But when she heard the song, she immediately agreed.

In fact, Shahrukh even joked that working with her was like working with a ‘child labor’ as she was only 20 when shooting for the movie; the actress had then shared that has was barely 9 when she first saw SRK’s flick ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge’. However, the cat is out of the bag as Deepika didn’t celebrate her 22nd birthday this year as she claimed, but the actress in fact, turned 24 years old early this year. Deepika’s lie was caught in one of her interviews as she shared, “My sister Anisha is 5 years younger to me, and just like my dad she always wanted to have a career in sports. She has become a star golfer at the age of 19.” Little did Deepika realize that she had unknowingly revealed that she is not 22-years old years; Sister Anisha is 19 and the fact that the two are 5 years apart that would make Deepika 24-year old. Lets just hope that beau Ranbir knows the truth about Deepika’s true age else, he would be quite in a ‘Bachana from Haseeno’ state.

In what is possibly nothing less than a shocking revelation, the news has just come in that Himesh Reshammiya's upcoming film KARZZZZ has seen a change in plot when compared to the Rishi Kapoor original. In the Subhash Ghai classic, Raj Kiran was shown to be in love with Simi Garewal and was born as Rishi Kapoor in his next birth, only to fall in love with Tina Munim and then take revenge from Simi. However, in the upcoming remake, the twist in the tale is brought about by the character who plays Himesh's love interest. That's because here, Tina (played by debutant Shweta Kumar) turns out to be none other than Kamini's [Urmila Matondkar] foster daughter. In KARZZZZ, there were certain elements which had to be made a little differently. So there is this situation where Himesh is in love with a girl who is his tormentor's daughter. Even though Tina isn't Kamini's biological daughter, Monty here still is in love (albeit in his new 'janam') with the daughter of the wife of his previous 'janam'. Quite a 'janam janam' situation here which is bound to create dilemmatic situation.However rest of the plot has been left untouched. It is the same Sir Juda (Gulshan Grover) who has an evil eye on Ravi Varma's [Raj Kiran] mansion, the same Kabeera [Danny Denzongpa] who helps Monty in unearthing his past and the same mother-daughter pair who form the thread which ties the two 'janams' together. Also starring Rohini Hattangadi, Bakhtiyaar Irani, Raj Babbar, Asrani and Dino Morea in principal roles, KARZZZZ is confirmed for a 17th October release.

The actress was blasted by the media for being ungrateful and not keeping in touch with the director who launched her. It all began when Farah gave birth to her triplets and Deepika failed to visit her in hospital. She was too busy with her assignments for which she was travelling continuously. Now, after the release of “Bachna Ae Haseeno”, she is a little free and it seems that the actress has used the time to catch up with Farah. The duo apparently even visited designer Manish Malhotra's office together to discuss Deepika's look and clothes for her appearance in “Billoo Barber”, which is being produced by Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment and directed by Priyadarshan. Posted by Cool Blogger at 3:35 AM 0 comments Labels: Deepika Padukone, Farah Khan, Scoops Priyanka is the new Item Girl of Bollywood Actress Priyanka Chopra is on a roll these days. Despite the debacle of Love Story 2050, she has a lot to look forward to this year and so do her fans. The actress is believed to have done a bikini number in Tarun Mansukhani's Dostana . Also recently she has gone ahead and done a sizzling number in the soon-to-be released Drona. The actress will be seen in a lot of glamorous avatars this season. First was her golden bikini bit in Dostana, then there is the Drona item number, finally culminating in Madhur Bhandarkar's Fashion. But coming back to Drona, the actress has just shot an item number for the film. It is believed to be the female version of the title track, to be sung by Sunidhi Chauhan. The dance has been choreographed by Ahmed Khan. The actress plays a character called Sonia in the film. Sonia is Drona's bodyguard. Her character is portrayed as being tough and intense and powerful. The actress professes to have enjoyed shooting for the film as her character was a different one and for which she had to undergo a lot of training. Priyanka's role is perhaps a first for Hindi cinema, where the female is the bodyguard and a sexy and tough one at that. Goldie Behl's Drona is supposed to be a fantasy film, on the lines of Hollywood classics like Indiana Jones and Pirates of The Caribbean.

Come and meet a hilarious bunch of people. This is a kind of trip you will enjoy and surely don’t want to miss. That is exactly what Amrita Rao is doing in her upcoming film Welcome To Sajjanpur . “We all invite you to Sajjanpur . It is a mad hatter town. We just want to invite the audience to come and have fun. That is the main objective. We are not here to preach. It is a funny film”, said Amrita. For the first time in her career Amrita will play an uneducated village girl in the film. She plays a girl who does pottery. It is a role which is visually drastic in terms of get ups and the costume drama happening around it. She speaks Hindi in Baghelkhandi which has a very different dialect. She has never played a total uneducated gaonwali which she plays in this film. Welcome to Sajjanpur is directed by Shyam Benegal and is slated to release on September 19.

Not Because of her movies but because of her latest crush. As time is passing by the no of boyfriends in her list is increasing. First it was her affair with Ashmit Patel that made news and then came along the news of Salman Rushdie’s new found interest in the young and hot Sen that made headlines. It seems Riya has just found her way to make it to the news. So what if the films don’t work? She has her mantra right to make people look up and notice Posted by Cool Blogger at 3:17 AM 0 comments Labels: Gossip, Riya Sen, Scandals Thursday, September 4, 2008 Priyanka & Mugda Godse Fight over Cover Page of Fashion Even as the release of Fashion is just about 50 days away, there seems to be a war brewing up between the leading ladies Priyanka Chopra and Mugdha Godse. And all of this is happening just for a magazine cover! Well, it doesn't seem to be serious though even as the latest issue of lifestyle/fashion magazines like Verve and Femina feature Priyanka Chopra and Mugdha Godse on the cover with quotable quotes making the proceedings even spicier. Though there hasn't been any smoke so far, it is apparent that both Priyanka and Mugdha are going all out to ensure that their presence in Madhur Bhandarkar directed FASHION does get noticed by one and all. This is why it can't be shrugged off as a mere coincidence to see both the ladies, who have a lot to prove with Fashion, strike a pose for different magazine covers, in a span of one week. However, producer-director Bhandarkar chooses to completely shrug away the insinuation and vehemently denies any so-called war between the two actors. He says, "Why should we be speculating unnecessarily when there is absolutely nothing scheming in this entire exercise. Both Priyanka and Mugdha have their own standing in the world of cinema and fashion and what better way to look at things with top magazines wanting the two on their cover. It only works for everyone when their pictures go on to speak more than just a thousand words. Rather than looking for so-called stories in their appearances for these magazines, shouldn't we be instead noticing how lovely the two look on the cover?" Well, in that case it may have been quite a scoop of sorts had another magazine come out with Kangana (yet another leading lady from FASHION) looming large on the cover as well. Now that would have been one unavoidable treat for the eyes in the offering!

The girl wears a – ooh la la – white bikini and has quite a few water scenes! Apparently, the girl lost oodles of baby fat for her role. And is looking quite stunning. The real fun however will begin when we hear of some bikini bickering from fellow contemporaries, and how Minni will handle the deep end of her 'shallow act'. But as of the moment, the girl is making 'waves', so let's not waive her off just yet. It's interesting to note that Gadhvi has made many-a-voluptuous woman discard their tassles and emerge in the sexiest of outfits. In Dhoom , Esha Deol was applauded for her makeover, In Dhoom 2 , Ash was at her oomphiest best. And now, we have the simple Minnisha Lamba going the extra mile in Kidnap . When we got in touch with Gadhvi, he didn't wish to say more but insisted that the character was a teenager who carried a bikini in the glove box of her car. So why not? Sure Sanjay, even we aren't complaining!

But Ekta had kept this understanding under wraps. However, just before the release of Rock On!!, Prachi got offers for two films - Abbas Mustan's Life Partner and Mahesh Bhatt’s Jashan, both of which she signed. After Rock On!! has been received well and Prachi’s performance appreciated, one would think that she would be doing more films, rather than walking out of some. She has Abbas Mustan’s Life Partner and Mahesh Bhatt’s Jashan, which she had signed before Rock On!!. After Rock On!!, two new big banners have approached her and she is in the process of finalising the deal with them. The problem is that these two big banners that contacted her after Rock On!! released, have laid down the condition that Prachi shouldn’t do too many films before their films see the light of day. But Prachi can’t back out of Life Partner (which is already on the floors) and Jashan (which will roll next month). So, Prachi spoke to Ekta at length on Sunday. She relieved Prachi. When contacted, Ekta said, “I would have loved it if Prachi had been part of two films that she had signed with Balaji films. But I’m not upset with her. It was her decision. She is my dear friend and I always want the best for her.” Posted by Cool Blogger at 4:46 AM 0 comments Labels: Ekta Kapoor, Prachi Desai, Rock On Big B Copies His Son A son being an inspiration .... that too the Small B for Big B. Unheard of but true..... Big B revals it himself. Remember the famous Amitabh number Khaike Paan Banaras ...? Big B reveals that the inspiration for his dance steps came from son Abhishek’s dance moves. “Abhishek was with me on the sets and he was very tall for his age and he was generally grooving to the song and I just copied it,” says Amitabh. And guess what Abhishek said to that? “Now it’s out in the open, even Amitabh Bachchan copies Abhishek.” Quite a revelation!

But looks like these untoward incidents have proved a blessing in disguise for Tanushree Dutta. Especially the Nana incident on the sets of Horn Ok Please, after which the actress has been inundated with film offers, despite the 'unprofessional' image it got her. "Incidentally, after that episode I have been getting a lot of offers. In fact, after that the number of offers has actually doubled up for some strange reason," says Tanushree gleefully. But as they say, once bitten twice shy, the actress has been taking it real slow this time around. "I have turned down many an offer that has come my way. That's because I have suddenly caught a phobia for all these new people. If today I have to sign a movie I would definitely do it with an acclaimed director, producer or an actor. Because, when even after working so hard such things happen, I just feel I'd rather be a glorified wall flower in a big movie and work peacefully than work with small-time directors," says she. But the actress agrees that the offers do signal something positive. "The industry did support me in that way. I thought that people might take calls based on other people's decisions but the truth is that there are people who have worked me before and, thankfully, they did not pay heed to these rumours. I signed an offer right after a week after that incident!" she reveals. Surely Tanu has moved on to better things and says that she has become stronger thanks to the negative phase. "I am looking at better things now. I have stopped thinking what people say about me. You care till a time you are worried, when you are not doing anything…and for the first time someone calls you a villain, you feel bad. You try hard too hard to prove that you are not like that. But it happens again and again and at a point you get immune. Now it does not matter to me," she says, matter-of-factly. Though she does admit that she had veered away from films a bit due to personal reasons. "I may have become lax in between but I had my reasons for it. There were a lot of things happening in my personal life and I decided to give those the priority. Now my focus is back on my career," signs off the Bong actress.

Salman came to stage no 4 at Mehboob Studios and inquired about Abhishek’s whereabouts. When a production guy showed him Abhishek’s vanity van, without hesitation Salman immediately proceeded towards his van. Of course, Abhishek was quite surprised on seeing Salman in his van but said nothing. It was Salman who initiated the conversation by asking about Abhishek’s forthcoming films. That got Abhishek talking. Eventually they started chatting and discussed general topics. Salman also made it a point to ask about Amitabh Bachchan and their recent Unforgettable Tour.” Once they got over the initial awkwardness, they began chatting like long lost friends. When Salman asked Abhishek about his next releases, the latter began showing Salman the promos and posters of his upcoming film Drona, which were stored on his laptop. They also spoke about Salman’s passion for painting. Suddenly, the ever impulsive Salman told Abhishek that he’d like to paint a poster of Abhishek in Drona. Abhishek too got excited about Salman’s offer after which they sat down to finalise a poster for Salman to paint. They were in the van for about 35 minutes and seemed quite relaxed in each other’s company.” Going by the way that the conversation went, one can safely assume that the Abhishek- Salman cold war has finally come to an end after the two stars had a great time together. In fact, a hospitable Abhishek also ordered a cold drink for Salman. Just when Salman was leaving the van, he once again promised Abhishek that he’d gift him the painting soon.

First it was Anees Bazmee and his gang who have been invited to woo Toronto in the prestigious forthcoming Toronto International Film Festival (from September 4 - 11) with their blockbuster offering Singh Is Kinng. And now, it's the turn of Bollywood's very own Jhakaas darling boy Anil Kapoor's turn to continue the magic. The news is that Anil Kapoor's eagerly awaited film Slumdog Millionaire that stars him alongwith Irrfan Khan will be premiered at the festival. Anil Kapoor and the entire cast and crew of the film are expected to be attending this gala event. Readers may also be aware of the fact that Anil Kapoor (who plays a quizmaster in the film) was chosen after the Big B and SRK refused the role of the quizmaster. What remains to be seen is that will Big B's and SRK's loss turn to be AK's gain? Posted by Cool Blogger at 4:16 AM 0 comments Labels: Anil Kapoor, Slumdog Millionaire, Toronto International Film Festival Yuktaa soon to get married..... The showstoppers at the Azeem Khan fashion show at a suburban hotel on Saturday night were none of the models who took the ramp with the designer’s new couture line, but former Miss World Yuktaa Mookhey and, yes, her Prince Charming. Yukta, whose run in Bollywood after she won the beauty pageant in 1999 was not as spectacular as Aishwarya Rai’s, has been pretty low on the social circuit after her last release, Mem-sahab — Lost In A Mirage bombed at the box office this June. But she sprang a surprise when she showed up for the fashion show dressed in a stunning navy blue gown and with a handsome man on her arm. Inquiries revealed that her suave and dashing escort was Prince Tuli, 36, a financial analyst from New York whose family owns a business empire in central India that runs into hotels and resorts, schools and colleges, malls and motors. Not much else is known of him, not even whether Prince Tuli belongs to any of the erstwhile royal families of the country or Prince is just his name. But Yuktaa, 29, and he are close friends on a popular social networking site. They were inseparable on Saturday night and when BT asked if she and Prince Tuli were a couple, the actress and model smiled and said, “I don’t want to talk about it now.” But rumours are that the two will be getting married soon and it is believed that the girl from Mulund will be settling down in Delhi after she ties the knot. Posted by Cool Blogger at 4:11 AM 0 comments Labels: Bollywood Babes, Gossip, Yuktaa Mookhey Priyanka Chopra travels in a Local Train Priyanka Chopra will never forget August 30, 2008. On Saturday, she travelled in a local train all the way from Goregaon to Churchgate, and the train had no other passengers except Priyanka and her five staff members! As Priyanka urgently had to reach NCPA, Nariman Point at 8 pm for an award ceremony, the producers of Kaminey, Mubina Rattonsey and Vishal Bharadwaj arranged for the train. The train was shuttling between Goregaon and South Mumbai. The shoot was called off when the train reached Goregaon around 6.15 pm.” Priyanka was in a fix as she had to reach NCPA for an award ceremony. Priyanka knew that she would have never reached NCPA at the scheduled time thanks to Mumbai's traffic. If she had taken her car, she wouldn't have made to the venue before 9.30 pm. Rattonsey and Bharadwaj realised her problem and asked her to take the same train all the way to Churchgate. As it is, they had the permission to shoot in that train all day on Saturday. It was an unbelievable sight! Priyanka arrived at Churchgate station at 7.30 pm. The awards ceremony organisers sent a car to pick her up from Churchgate station. Some of Priyanka's staff who were not with her on the train even suggested that she should step out of the local train in a burkha. But Priyanka flatly refused even though many people recognised her when she got off at Churchgate station. Her staff had arranged for a few security guards who immediately took her to her car. Priyanka added, “It was very kind of my producers Mubina Rattonsey and Vishal Bharadwaj to arrange the train for me so that I could reach the event on time. I felt completely pampered. A whole train for me and my staff! It was great fun.” Posted by Cool Blogger at 4:03 AM 0 comments Labels: Gossip, Priyanka Chopra October 2008 August 2008 Home Subscribe to: Posts (Atom) BLOG ARCHIVE , ► 2009 (590) o ► September (6) + Priyanka Chopra turns hot for Levis + Anil Kapoor ropes in award winning writer for Ayes... + Kim Kardashian strips on Twitter + Heidi Klum first Barbie with Undies + Sagarika Ghatge goes wild just in Arjun Rampal’s s... + Bipasha Basu sizzles on Harper’s Bazaar India ( Se... o ► August (70) + Lindsay Lohan goes wild in Labour Pains + Anna Paquin is comfortable with skimpy outfits + Kareena Kapoor cancels birthday plans for Aamir Kh... + Reena Patel is Miss Bollywood UK + Kate Moss is like Peter Pan + Keira Knightley competes with Scarlett Johansson + Kristen Stewart fierce looks scare fans + Megan Fox fined for wrong parking + Kim Kardashian signs perfume deal + Bipasha Basu loves being sexy + Jenny McCarthy reveals dieting secrets + Katrina Kaif at New York Yatra Meet-Greet Event + Kendra Wilkinson shows her bare belly + Bipasha Basu refuses to smoke + Cheryl Cole spends 100k on wardrobe + Swim date with Hayden Panettiere on offer + SRK -
