Priyanka Chopra who has just joined Twitter


A few days back our very sexy Mallika Sherawat was invited to Twitter office in San Francisco. The lady was the only Bollywood actress to enjoy a huge fan base on the social networking site Twitter. Now she faces tough competition from her contemporary Priyanka Chopra who has just joined Twitter.

Currently, if Mallika Sherawat has around 9,446 fans, Priyanka Chopra boasts of around 13,452 followers. It’s a record of sorts as the actress is just a month old on Twitter and has gained tremendous popularity ever since. If Mallika introduces herself as Bollywood diva on Twitter, Priyanka has status message “DA REAL DEAL”.

According to media reports it was Shahid Kapur, who asked Priyanka to join Twitter. Earlier, both the stars were Facebook pals and their wall-to-wall scribbling was grabbing a lot of media attention. As a source reveals, Priyanka is quite addicted to Twitter now and posts all the recent day-to-day happenings, as well as her thoughts on the site. One of her latest post says, “back to pyaar impossible sets... feels like im back home.. last schedule.. :( one of those days where i question life.. hmmm..”

But it’s strange that the actress is not using the platform to promote her next release Kaminey. She is just mentioning about her whereabouts and twittering with her fellow tinselville tweeple like Uday Chopra and also Gul Panag.

For this desi girl the world of social networking is very exciting, she is also a gadget freak and loves interacting with her fans through web without any fear of being mobbed in the virtual world. Nowadays, she also likes clicking pictures at events and also personal ones. Recently at an event she took pictures of the mediapersons and also of her mom and bro, which are available especially for her tweeps on Twitter.

Priyanka was quoted as saying, “I’m having a lot of fun (on Twitter)”. And the actress is hoping that her Twitter family increases with time. That means we might see Priyanka, after Mallika, visiting Twitter headquarters soon.From:movies.apunkachoice.com

Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone:love story is perfect


Mumbai: Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone says that her inspiration in a relationship is parents’ love story.

Deepika says, “I have always looked at my parents’ as the perfect love story. Despite having differences, through mutual love and commitment, their marriage has been successful.

The actress is quite excited about her next coming movie Love Aaj Kal. When asked about the memorable moments of the film she says, “One of them would be the song sequence (Chor Bazaar) in Delhi.”

She adds, “There was a time in earlier decades when singing and dancing on top of a car were common. These days they are no longer in vogue, but the director wanted to have a song sequence on a moving taxi rooftop in Delhi!”

Deepika says further, “Needless to say, Saif and I had to oblige despite not being very comfortable. People in the city were quite surprised and wondering what we were up to. But now when I see the song on screen, it is looking pretty nice.”

Priyanka Chopra is in contention for the female lead


After Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra sashayed away with the honours in Madhur Bhandarkar’s movie Fashion, it’s now the turn of a true blue
fashion designer to try his hand at revealing the underbelly of the Indian style industry.

Fashion designer Rahul Jain, who is almost done with writing the script of his film, is all set to tie up with a production house and rope in actor Shahid Kapoor for his directorial debut. “My movie is not a repeat of Fashion. It is about a designer’s life, which will show the success, pain, sorrow and struggle in our life and will portray the fashion world from a designer’s point of view,” Jain told SundayET. And though he declined to reveal the name of the production houses he is in talks with, the buzz in the fashion circle is that it is none other than UTV.

When asked whether Bollywood belle Priyanka Chopra is in contention for the female lead, Jain answered in the negative and explained that in his movie it has to be a fresh and ordinary face. “I need a fresh girl to act,” he said “ …and I do not want anyone from the film industry. That has to come from ordinary people like us.”

According to Jain, it was the absence of meaty portrayals for designers in Fashion, which prompted him to take up the cudgel. Fashion revolved around models and not designers, he feels.And in hindsight, it’s not only Jain who has an ambition to become a film director. Other well-known names from the world of haute couture such as Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Manish Malhotra and Vikram Phadnis are thinking of jumping into the bandwagon of 70mm.

Today is Priyanka Chopra’s birthday


Today is Priyanka Chopra’s birthday. And the gorgeous actress isn’t throwing any party. But if reports are to be believed, the lady is taking a two-day off. Interestingly, Shahid too is taking a break for two days.

Priyanka has kept 18th and 19th July free from any kind of appointments, promotion events or shooting. And so has Shahid. Too much of a coincidence! Don’t you think?

Perhaps the duo plans a getaway to a secret destination to celebrate the special day. Otherwise why would they take the trouble of taking off on the same days despite their extremely busy schedules?

Priyanka had made it clear from the start that she’s not keen on throwing a bash as her last experience was bad when she couldn’t enjoy her own party (where Bollywood big wigs and Hollywood’s Gerard Butler came) because she was too tied up being a perfect host.

Day before yesterday it was Katrina’s birthday, today it’s Priyanka’s and both the actresses planned to celebrate it privately. After all, private space is much fun for these celebs nowadays. But trust some paparazzi bloke to sneak in and come out with a picture.

Aishwarya Rai the current Bollywood "dream girl"


Actress Hema Malini has branded Aishwarya Rai the current Bollywood "dream girl"

Malini, who was billed as the "dream girl" when she began her acting career in the 1970s, passed on her crown to Rai in an interview with The Times of India.

When asked who she felt deserved the title, Malini said: "Whoever is on top is the dream girl. I feel it is Aishwarya Rai."

The Sapno Ka Saudagar star claimed that life as an actress has changed very little since the '70s, saying: "It is what it was even 20 years back."

She added: "There's no need [for a size zero figure]. I was not a size zero. You must have a flat stomach - not a pot belly - and a nice and beautiful face - at least a tolerable face - and you can be an actress."From:www.digitalspy.co.uk

Katrina will not marry Salman


“On the personal front, Katrina will not marry Salman and if she does, then it will not last long. They both are completely different people. Salman is a Number 9 (27th Dec.1965) ruled by Mars (No.9), No.8 (Saturn – Capricorn) and No.6 (Venus). They share Number 9 in common but nothing else. Nos.7 and 9 do not gel well with difference of opinion being the main negative aspect. They both are different people with no similar ideologies but can be friends for sure. In nutshell, there is no great compatibility between the two and Katrina should avoid taking Salman too seriously. Rather, Katrina should not even think of marriage till July 2011” informs Bhavikk.

Katrina will be entering her 26th year


he gorgeous Katrina Kaif brings in her birthday on July 16. Celebrity astro numerologist Bhavikk Sangghvi predicts what’s in store for her in days to come. Katrina was born on the 16th July, 1984 which makes her a Number 7 person in numerology. She is a Cancerian (ruler Moon and Neptune – Numbers 2 and 7) and her destiny number adds up to Number 9 (Mars). Being ruled by Number 7, she is also ruled by Number 2. Numbers 2 and 7 always goes hand in hand.

“ Katrina will be entering her 26th year ( 2 + 6 = 8 ) which indicates health issues, although it will not affect her to that extent because the year 2009 ( 2 + 0 + 0 + 9 = 11 = 1 + 1 = 2 ) which adds up to No.2 is one of her best numbers and would do some damage control. But she still needs to remain cautious over anxiety, hyper tension and blood pressure problems” predicts Bhavikk.


“On the professional front, her next release ‘Blue’ add up to No.7 (16). Kat herself is a No.7 and this film will make her position much stronger than what already is. Later in Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani the title of the film adds up to No.2 (56) which is her best number. Ditto for Ranbir Kapoor. The film will not only do well but will make Ranbir-Katrina a hot onscreen Jodi after the film’s release.

In Priyadarshan’s De Dana Dan where she is paired opposite Akshay Kumar , she may not have much to do and this film may not do any good to her but will not do any harm as well. Towards 2010 in ‘Rajniti’ where is rumored to have played the role of Sonia Gandhi, she will be getting mixed reviews for her performance but the film shall do well at the ticket window” adds Bhavikk.

“On the personal front, Katrina will not marry Salman and if she does, then it will not last long. They both are completely different people. Salman is a Number 9 (27th Dec.1965) ruled by Mars (No.9), No.8 (Saturn – Capricorn) and No.6 (Venus). They share Number 9 in common but nothing else. Nos.7 and 9 do not gel well with difference of opinion being the main negative aspect. They both are different people with no similar ideologies but can be friends for sure. In nutshell, there is no great compatibility between the two and Katrina should avoid taking Salman too seriously. Rather, Katrina should not even think of marriage till July 2011” informs Bhavikk.

Hema Malini, beauty queen-turned-actress Aishwarya Rai


Noida (IANS): For Bollywood's original 'dreamgirl' Hema Malini, beauty queen-turned-actress Aishwarya Rai is the only one who deserves the 'dreamgirl' tag among all the new age actresses.

"Whoever is on top is the dreamgirl. I feel it is Aishwarya Rai," Hema told reporters on being asked who, according to her, deserves to be called the 'dreamgirl' nowadays.

Taking about the hardships an actress has to face, she said: "An actress' life is the same - nothing has changed. It is what it was even 20 years back. They have to work very hard, make themselves look beautiful and need a lot of dedication to remain at the top," said Hema, who was in this suburb of the national capital Monday to felicitate winners of supermarket Big Bazaar's 'Meet The Dreamgirl' contest.

Snubbing the whole idea of having a size zero figure, Hema said: "There's no need (for a size zero figure). I was not a size zero. You must have a flat stomach - not a pot belly - and a nice and beautiful face - at least a tolerable face - and you can be an actress."

Dressed in a pale yellow, elegant sari, the 60-year-old actress was at her forthright best when asked about her future projects.

"I've signed one or two (films) which are held up because of the financial problems in the whole world. Otherwise I would have finished those two and they would have released by now."

"One is with Nana Patekar which Deepa Sahi is directing, and the other is with another producer. It is not right to expose everything about a film," she said.

Another film that Hema is working on is "Ek Thi Rani Aisi Bhi" - in which she will play a role based on the life of prominent political figure Vijayaraje Scindia.

Hema, who has delivered hits like "Seeta Aur Geeta", "Satte Pe Satta", and "Sholay" in the past, is also toying with the idea of getting into production and returning to direction after almost 17 years.

"I'm planning to start production. I don't want to say much about it because every time I talk about these things, they never happen. It's my desire to make lovely films because I am an artist and a very creative person," she said.

"But filmmaking is not a joke...so many things are involved," she added.

The actress, who had her first stint with direction in 1992 with Shah Rukh Khan-starrer "Dil Aashna Hai", says she would want to be a liberal producer and not want to impose her ideas on the youth.

The success of Katrina Kaif latest movie ‘New York’.


umbai, July 12 (ANI): Having already given many hit movies, Bollywood actor Katrina Kaif is ecstatic over the success of her latest movie ‘New York’.

The film is based on the 9/11 Twin Towers attacks and it stars well-known actors like John Abraham, Katrina Kaif, and Irrfan Khan in the lead.

“New York was really one of the most special films for me. It is an amazing story and for me it was such a connected film. I really wanted to do the film to do well. I am so happy that it did. Also for director Mr. Kabir Khan; he is really one of the nicest people I know and I really wanted to work for him and I think we all are really happy that it worked….,” said Kaif on the occasion of launch of a jewellery range on Saturday.

Directed by Kabir Khan, ‘New York’ is made on a budget 4.6 million dollars and it revolves round the saga of three friends who live in the city before, during and after the 9/11 attacks.

“New York” puts the spotlight on that aspect of prejudice through the story of Samir (one of the three friends), an American of Indian origin who turns to terrorism after he is picked up by the FBI and brutally tortured for months only because he took some photographs of the twin towers for a school project.

Khan said that while researching for the film he discovered ‘a huge volume of prejudice’ and how at least 1,200 people of different nationalities were detained on the ‘basis of suspicion alone’ after the attack. (ANI)From:www.thaindian.com

Shah Rukh Khan can now call himself "doctor"


Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan can now call himself "doctor" after being honoured in the United Kingdom for his contribution to arts and culture.

Bedfordshire University conferred the doctorate upon him at a ceremony in London on Friday night.

Khan said he aimed to use the award to help educate underprivileged children.

The actor, who has starred in dozens of films, already has his own waxwork at Madame Tussaud's and has previously been honoured in France and Malaysia.

'Top' award

Khan was able to joke about becoming a doctor after frequent surgery in the past few years, most recently on his shoulder five months ago.

"Interestingly my kids don't understand this doctorate and believe I will be awarded a stethoscope," he joked at the degree ceremony.

The star was awarded the doctorate at a top London hotel instead of on university premises north of London because of the summer break.

The university received his nomination from Routes 2 Roots, an NGO that works towards people-to-people contact across the subcontinent, especially India and Pakistan.

Accepting the honour, Khan said he had received numerous awards as an actor but being given an honorary doctorate was the top achievement.

The actor left one of Delhi's top schools with the best student award - but never finished a masters degree.

So how did he feel about receiving the honour?

"I get the feeling that I should further the cause of those underprivileged children who don't get the opportunity to educate themselves,'' he said, quickly adding that he should perhaps begin with his own children who are "highly uneducated as of now".

The 43-year-old also added he was most scared of mathematics as a child, and intended to make sure his children were good at the subject.From:news.bbc.co.uk

Katrina’s dream birthday-holiday :Family is delayed again


Katrina’s dream birthday-holiday with her family is delayed again…but fear not. It’s only by a day. And that too with good reason.

Katrina has decided to leave on Sunday instead of Saturday because the cast and crew of New York are having a party on Saturday to celebrate the film’s success. Akshay had his party for Kambhakkt Ishq. I want to be here for our party.”

“It’s a very special film for all of us. And I didn’t want to miss the moment for anything. Besides, all my sisters aren’t reaching London until 14th. So I can delay by a day.”

She can’t wait to zip off on her holiday. Net favorite Katrina searched a holiday spot for herself and her family on the Internet.

Katrina Kaif is finally free to go on her month-long holiday. On Sunday July 12, three days ahead of her birthday, she leaves for the family holiday that she has been craving for in London. The entire Kaif clan will gather together in London and then proceed to an undisclosed destination in Italy for a family holiday.

“We net-searched, googled and finally found a place we wanted to visit,” giggles Bollywood’s most googled girl. “It was tough because there was no place the entire family would agree on. Or if we all liked a place there was no vacancy. We finally found a place that we all liked.”

Italy is a favorite spot. And Katrina is often mistaken to be Italian. But those are not the only reasons why she’s looking forward to the month-long holiday.

This would be the longest time when Katrina would be away from Salman Khan and his family. And probably a time when she would do some serious rethinking about her life.

Says Katrina; “Quite honestly I haven’t been with my whole family for a long time. I’ve been preparing for my holiday for ages. I’ve been working like a mad woman trying to finish all my work on time. It got especially hectic as the time for me to leave approached. I was dubbing for Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani and shooting two songs for Priyan’s De Dana Dan. At one point I thought I wouldn’t finish on time. But I did. And I’m really looking forward to my time with my family.”From:www.realbollywood.com

Imran looks similar to Jackson from his song ‘Beat It’


July 08: Just a day after the world witnessed the biggest celebrity send-off ever as King of Pop Michael Jackson was given a royal farewell, Bollywood is following league to pay homage to the megastar. Keeping with their foreign counterparts, filmdom aims to honour the pop legend by impersonating his famous dance moves. And taking the lead here is youth icon Imran Khan.
According to the latest Bollywood buzz, Imran Khan is impersonating not only the pop star’s famous groovy moves but is also dressing up like him for a song in his upcoming flick ‘Luck’. Dressed in black jeans and red jacket, Imran looks similar to Jackson from his song ‘Beat It’.

A news daily quoted a source as saying, “The Imran song Jee Ley in the film has Imran wearing black jeans, a black tee and a red jacket ala Michael Jackson in ‘Beat It’. The video has come on the heels of MJ`s death so naturally eyes will be raised whether the makers are trying to cash in on his death to promote the film."

But even though the production house has denied all such reports, the resemblance in dance moves and style between Imran and Jackson are bound to raise speculations. "The production house would have definitely thought about paying a tribute to MJ while thinking out how the song and Imran would look. Michael is now dead and his death is rather controversial so maybe they don`t want to publicise it that way", states a unit member.

With this Imran has joined a league of Bollywood actors who have time and again copied the King of Pop’s trademark moves.From:spicezee.zeenews.com

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar jumped off a 60-foot


Popular for his daredevil stunts, Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar jumped off a 60-foot high elevated structure in the capital on Thursday evening to promote his new film Kambakkht Ishq releasing Friday.Clad in a black body hugging full sleeved T-shirt, jeans, sports shoes and shades, the actor played his comic self with the fans and the media before jumping off on the stage.

He talked about his character Viraj Shergill, a Hollywood stuntman in the film, and the importance of women in the lives of men."I'm a typical male chauvinist (in the film)... do you even know who is a male chauvinist? He is one who believes that he is God's gift to women. But I must tell you that if men are from Mars, women are from heaven," said the actor while still standing suspended with wires from a crane at DLF place in Saket.

The 41-year-old then probed the media for questions from the height. "Hi media. Won't you like to ask me anything right now. I've done almost 120 films and I haven't seen such a pc (press conference). Go on, ask what you want. I won't jump before you do."The actor who was last seen in duds Chandni Chowk To China and 8x10 Tasveer also warned his fans not to repeat the stunts shown in films.

"Stunts are amazing but please don't do them... it's way too dangerous. Three months ago, my cousin was trying one of my glass breaking stunts from the film and he ended up with a lot of stitches. Even we (actors) have to undergo a lot of rehearsals before doing them," said the actor before taking the leap.From:www.hindustantimes.com

Preeti promises to come back with not one but two new releases


But even after getting an entry into Bollywood with a hit film like Mohabbatein, Preeti Jhangiani’s filmi career refused to take off. A slew of debacles followed and the actress settled into matrimony with actor Parvin Dabbas. Ask Preeti who she blames for her inability to make it in films and she says candidly, “I don’t see a point in analysing these things. I can give a variety of excuses like I don’t belong to a filmi family or that I didn’t have a Godfather but I won’t do that. I think every person comes with his or her destiny and I would just put it down to that.”

But now, Preeti promises to come back with not one but two new releases. “I’ve just finished shooting for As The River Flows directed by Bidyut Kotoky. It’s set in Assam and it’s about common people getting caught in the crossfire between the government and terrorists,” she says. Preeti plays a Bengali newspaper editor in this one and in Mono, which is going to be shot completely in London, the actress gets to don five avatars. “That’s because I play an actress who plays five different characters. This is by far the most challenging thing I’ve done,” she adds.

Although Preeti admits that she is not being offered mainstream roles — which she is keen to do — she says that both the films she’s doing are hardcore commercial movies. Is she also worried that the growing competition (Read: Deepika, Asin, Anushka etc) will mean lack of roles for her? “There was competition even when I entered Bollywood, so that doesn’t bother me. I think I have a lot to offer and hopefully, somebody will put their faith in me too. I agree I haven’t reached where I wanted to in my career but thankfully, age is on my side,” she says, putting to rest the pregnancy rumours that have been doing the rounds of late.

She laughs, “It’s ridiculous. Just because I’m married doesn’t mean I’m pregnant too. I want to start my career now, not end it!”
