Aishwarya Rai-Hrithik Roshan to create magic in English film

You seem to have quietly signed a Pakistani actor called Imran Abbas for 'Heera Mandi'.
So quietly that even I don't know about it. I haven't signed anyone called Imran Abbas. I'm not making 'Heera Mandi' right now. It may happen much later. I'm now directing another film with Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai. I'm very excited about the film, and so are they.

What prompted you to sign Hrithik Roshan?
Hrithik and I have been wanting to work together for a very long time. I've always been impressed by his sincerity as an actor. I was waiting for the right opportunity to sign him. Working with Hrithik would be a new and rewarding experience.

You and Aishwarya Rai created magic in 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam' and 'Devdas'. Time for a hattrick?
Aishwarya is very special to me. She suits the role in my new film to perfection. When she read the script she was deeply moved. Of course the true friend that she is, she told me she would've agreed to work with me even if I didn't send her the script.

Will this Hrithik-Aishwarya film be your first for an international market in English?
'Black' was in English, too. It's important for me to make my films for our market. But we must take our cinema to the remotest corner of the world. Today the spoken language is no barrier. The spoken language in our country is as much Hindi is as English. I want to capture that feeling of everyday conversations.

You continue to be fearless in spite of 'Saawariya'?
This is the time when filmmakers need to be fearless and experiment with themes. Fearlessness is my biggest asset as a filmmaker. I will continue to make films that come from deep within me. My very first film "Khamoshi: The Musical" didn't do well at all. A lot of people think it's my best work.

There were reports that some actors, like Ranbir Kapoor, don't wish to work with you?
People are writing tragic tales about me every day. They are even deciding what film I'm making and also casting actresses in them... Maybe stories about me sell. But when the misrepresentations go beyond my tolerance, it's time to speak up. The truth is Ranbir and Sonam would be there for me whenever I need them. However, at the moment I'm making a film with Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai.

Deepika Padukone in a comic Avatar !

Deepika Padukone's been worrying lately. She is about to do something that few actresses in Bollywood dare to. With Akshay Kumar as her co-star, Deepika Padukone has signed a full fledged comedy film. After working with Farah Khan in 'Om Shanti Om', she will now do Sajid Khan's 'Houseful'. After double roles in 'Om Shanti Om' and 'Chandni Chowk to China', we wonder how Deepika would take to comedy. About 'Houseful', Deepika says, "My role in 'Houseful' is not about just a few comic scenes here and there. It's a total comic role.
I wonder how I'll manage it. Magar main koshish karoongi. Sajid has a great sense of humour and I will go by his vision. Besides, if my director has so much confidence in me, then I just cannot let him down." We ask the gorgeous Deepika Padukone if she thinks the audience will take to seeing a funny Deepika. She answers defiantly, "I do have a sense of fun and I plan to have a ball of a time doing 'Houseful'. See, I am a reserved person in real life, but that does not mean that I can't be funny for the camera." Now we wonder if that actually works.

Deepika Padukone will soon be seen in the Akshay Kumar starrer 'Chandni Chowk to China'.

Shilpa Shetty to celebrate New Year in Spain

Shilpa Shetty preferred to celebrate Christmas in London and now she will be celebrating New Year with her family and beau Raj Kundra in Spain.

Not just that the actress who loves cooking, cooked delicious dinner for her loved ones. "I do love cooking, but cooking for 15 people can be back-breaking. Yet it was worth. I was showered with generous compliments for my chef skills, so that felt good," said Shilpa Shetty.

The actress and her family also sat around the table and maintaind a two-minute silence for those who had lost their lives in 26/11. "It was an awakening," she told us.

Celina Jaitley reveals her twin brother !

What is our light-eyed Celina Jaitley up to these days? Well, she tells us that she is busy spending time with her twin brother!

Now that’s a new one. Wherever did he come from? “Well, it’s my brother Captain Vikrant who is on leave from work and in town! He’s just one year elder than I am but we are like twins... we play mind-reading games, fight, scream and bring the whole house down.

We are crazily connected to each other. I share everything with him.” Aah, now we know whom to go to if we have to get details of some German connections, right Celina?

And we could counter check those coloured eyes versus coloured contact lenses rumours with him, too!

Is this Kareena’s Size -2 Look?

I wrote in some article that Kareena Kapoor is a walking skeleton, but looking at this picture, I’m speechless. Her obsession with the Size Zero look has taken her two or three step further. I guess they call this ‘the -2 size look’.

Seriously, I’m really worried about her health. I’m not being naughty, just look at her upper body… and the veins in her hand. What has she done? Boy, she has become anorexic, less than skeleton … I have no words to describe.
Kareena darling, this is not you, so please comeback to your Ajnabi days. Even Don days would be absolutely fine.
The above photo of Kareena Kapoor with Sylvester Stallone was taken on the sets of Kambhaqt Ishq.

Priyanka plays Julia Roberts in 'Notting Hill' remake

Suddenly, the reclusive younger scion of Yash Raj Films is busy playing a multitude of roles. Uday Chopra is ready for a new beginning in the Hindi film industry. But this time, Uday will not only act but also be actively involved in the filmmaking process. Bade bhaiyya Aditya and father Yash Chopra are planning to again launch Uday in a Yash Raj film, Pyar Impossible in which he stars opposite Priyanka Chopra. Uday has also written the film's screenplay.

'Pyar Impossible' is loosely based on the 1999 Hollywood film 'Notting Hill', which is based on a relationship between a star played by Julia Roberts and a bookshop owner played by Hugh Grant. Uday's good friend Jugal Hansraj will direct 'Pyar Impossible'.

We sent a text message to Uday Chopra to confirm the news. On behalf of Uday, his spokesperson said, "It's too early to talk about this." Meanwhile, Priyanka Chopra is quite happy about this Yash Raj film. She said, "Lately, it is the only script that I really liked. I cannot tell you much about the film's plot nor can I reveal the title. Although I sat through several script narrations, I was not too sure about what to do after Ashutosh Gowarikar's 'What's Your Raashee'. When I heard the script for Uday's film, I was immediately excited. It is a beautiful subject. It's a dream role for any actress."

Commenting on her equation with Uday since 'Pyar Impossible' is Priyanka Chopra's first film with the Yash Raj banner, Priyanka said, "Uday and I have often bumped into each other socially. I know him but not well enough to call him a friend," said Priyanka.

Only time will tell if 'Pyar Impossible' will breathe new life into Uday Chopra's acting career but his jodi with Priyanka and the fact that it's based on a popular film like 'Notting Hill' should make for an interesting watch.

It epitomizes the expression of love and affection in a women’s life.” The new Nakshatra TVC will see Katrina as the Goddess of Luck performing a cosmic ballet and controlling the cosmos. With almost all her films proving Box Office hits, this girl sure seems to be proving ‘lucky’ for all!

She can throw tantrums and be difficult at times. But at the end of the day, she is a great human being and gorgeously stunning.” Sushmita was quoted in a news-daily.

Besides them, the movie also stars Rati Agnihotri, Randeep Hooda, Deepal Shaw and some other well-known character actors. This crossover film is directed by Manish Gupta. The plot is as unusual as it goes with crossover movies, and relationships and emotions find a fair play in the drama.

Talking of drama, Sushmita was also asked whether she faced the brunt of the tantrum-throwing supermodel. To this she quipped, “We got along like a house on fire!” Source : Zee News

And wants to be directly connected to them. Guess it’s Saifoo’s gift — the pink laptop — that has got her hooked onto webby hobbies. Seems like Bebo got some good ‘net practice’ all this while.
