Salman and Katrina split -Not in talking terms anymore!!

Looks like, Salman and Katrina are no more together. They have gone their own ways and are not even on talking terms anymore.

Salman has been busy at the Mehboob Studios for Dabangg, while Katrina was shooting for Zoya akhtar’s film with Hrithik roshan, Farhan and Abhay Deol.

It was noticed that, they were shooting for almost a day next to each other, but they didn’t even bother to greet each other.

It was not only the ex-lovers who had cold vibes but Salman’s buddy Hrithik also didn’t bother to drop in on Khan’s set to leave a ‘Hi’.

It was reported that, the last time when they were in Mehboob studio, Salman personally went to Hrithik’s van and chatted with him.

I wonder what went wrong between them, but, all chose to stick to their individual spaces.

Deepika wins over Aishwarya at Cannes

Bollywood’s sex symbol Deepika Padukone gets a thumbs up from various designers for the perfect attire she was in – on her very first appearance on the red carpet.

She stole the limelight from the experienced Aishwarya Rai who made many a fashion blunder at the Film Festival.

Aishwarya Rai, who has been attending the French film festival since 2002 as the global face of L’Oreal, has been drawing criticism from designers for her wrong choice of outfits and was only appreciated last year when she wore a white off-shoulder Roberto Cavalli.

24-year-old Deepika was able to make the right choice in her first go itself. The young actress, who is attending the event as the face of liquor brand Chivas Regal, opted for a Rohit Bal — off white, slightly embroidered saree with touches of gold, instead of a western look.

Designer Charu Parashar said,

“She was wearing a saree and I think that’s an appropriate outfit for any Indian diva walking an international platform. It was a nice off-white saree with a sexy blouse, making the look exude a good amount of glitz and glamour.”

Yuvvraaj Movie Review

Yuvraaj had all the ingredients of being a superhit – superstar cast, a director with a very good track record, big budget, great music director to compose music, exotic locations, awesome ‘look’ and that extra V and A in the name.

But why does this movie fail. The answer is simple, the formula is ghisa-pita (worn n torn) and outdated. Secondly – bad bad bad script. Ghai brings us again a family melodrama that may have worked in his favor in the 80s and the early 90s but not now. His style and his writing seems to have stagnated.

Subhash Ghai claimed in an interview that his work is heavily inspired from the classics of English literature. That definitely shows in the screenplay, the sets, costumes and the backdrop of the story. But that wouldn’t make up for the story and script Mr. Ghai. Looks like he made the entire movie for himself, as he pleased, as he liked without bothering whether or not it will make sense to the millions who will watch the film.

It would’ve been more appropriate for Subhash Ghai to make this into a silent movie rather than try and have dialogues that would make you hold your head in anguish wondering whats wrong with the dialogue writer or that would make you chuckle unintentionally purely because they sound dumb. Especially the one – “Jo bete ne apne baap ki shakal sapne mein bhi na dekhi ho, woh beta nahin, woh hardcore anti-family man hai.” I mean what the….

Anyway – Coming to performances and star cast. Anil Kapoor is the saving grace who manages to pull off fairly well in a badly written role (although I failed to understand what exactly was his medical problem). Zayed Khan had a stereotypical role whose acting abilities were just about enough to sail through. Katrina Kaif, looks pretty as she is expected to, she still needs to work hard on her expressions and ofcourse her Hindi. Salman Khan, needs a nice wig or a change of hairstyle – his performance is as inconsistent as his look throughout the film. He needs a crash course on acting and Zayed needs much more.

Salman Khan Is Unromantic Says Katrina Kaif

As they get ready for the release of their forthcoming film Yuvraaj, Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif gave their first joint interview and answered questions about their love life for the first time.When Katrina was asked whether Salman was a very romantic boyfriend and she promptly replied,

“No. He is not romantic at all. He keeps it all for the screen.”

This will be their first serious romance and Katrina confesses that their ideas of romance are very different from each others’.

“I want to go for holidays, but he says its boring to be alone together. He hates candlelight dinners. He wants his food to be ready on the table when he reaches a restaurant. He likes to be surrounded by people.”

Katrina also spoke about what she likes about Salman, except for the fact that he is a good looking man,

She says, “Earlier I used to think, models were drop dead lookers. But today I cherish a complete personality. But I cannot deny that Salman and I had an instant connection when we met. I thought he was a striking personality.”

Salman was asked who he thinks of as the most beautiful woman in the world and guess what he replied -

“Whoever I have gone out with or I am going out with now, is the one.”

Perfect reply that nailed both Aishwarya and Katrina. Wonder if that caused a little twitch in Katrina’s eyebrow

Delhi Belly waiting for Aamir’s Approval

It has been months now that Abhinay Deo’s movie Delhi Belly is ready and is waiting for Aamir Khan’s approval. However, the films release is going to take a long time. Sources reveal that, “Aamir was unhappy with the final version of the film and has sent it to a studio in Los Angeles for editing. With this new development, it does not look like the film will release till early next year.”

The English cast of this movie has an ensemble of Vir Das, Kunaal Roy Kapur, Shenaz Treasurywala, Poorna Jaganathan and Imran Khan. A close source involved with this film says, “It is tragic that despite being made in record time of a few months, the film has been stuck on the edit table for so long.” Initially, Aamir was to spearhead the editing but he got busy with his own films. However, when he did see it, he was not thrilled about it. Moreover, he made it known. Since the film has adult jokes and has been made in English, he wants it to be edited like an international project. Aamir already had international distribution plans for Delhi Belly and he thought the film did not match his expectations.

Asin to do another film with Salman

Asin is to work opposite Salman Khan again after London Dreams! A source revealed that Asin has bagged the role instead of Deepika Padukone in Anees Bazmee film. The film will be a Bhushan Kumar production, and is a remake of a super hit South film. It has been said that Salman and Asin were close to each other on the sets of London Dreams. Even though the film flopped, Salman was still in touch with Asin. There was even news that Salman helped her to get an apartment in the suburbs.

The original movie is a Telugu film with Ram and Genelia in the lead roles. It was one the highest grossing film in the south in 2008. Bhushan Kumar confirmed the news saying, “Yes, we are producing the film and it goes on floor in June. Talks are on but I cannot comment on the casting.”

A US based gym launched in Pune by Sunil Shetty

Sunil Shetty launched a US based gym in Pune yesterday. He has launched the same gym in Nagpur before. Talking about his new business venture, the actor says, “It is called Anytime Fitness and I launched the first gym in Nagpur and one in Pune yesterday. I am in the core team. When the company approached me, I made it very clear that before I joined, certain conditions would have to be met.”

It is one of the biggest groups in the USA. In India, they are planning to launch 250 gyms in the next three years. The one in Mumbai will be launched next month. When asked what Sunil’s conditions he said were, “The financials are in place and it is a very cost-effective. The fees range from various schemes beginning from Rs. 399 to 500 and 999 a month. The gym is for senior citizens and children between ages of 4-17 too. It is a complete concept for me and what I say makes a difference.”

There will be trained nutritionists and dieticians who will monitor everything. They also have kitchens for moms to cook in, cooking academy, centralized kitchen for serving breakfast, with lunch and dinner. None of the gyms in India has all these facilities. Sunil Shetty dreams of making this country obesity free.

The actor also said, “The Indian cricket team has access to TRX training. TRX training has two cables and is freehand. It is exercising with your own body weight and it is very difficult. The good thing about TRX is that you can carry the cables everywhere when you travel. I am hooked onto TRX tracks and work out regularly six days a week at the gym in my building.”

Yuvraaj Spells Loss for Multiplexes

Yuvraaj after all the hype and hoopla especially around the real couple on screen turned out to be a disappointing film. Much hyped off-screen pair with their on-screen chemistry seemed dull and their performance seemed very thanda.

The film got a major thrashing from the film critics and upon that it fared below average at the box-office

Industry trade sources tell us, “The film opened to 30-40% in all the major multiplexes on Friday but the collections actually dropped down further as Sunday came. Then on Monday it went lower to a poor 20-25%. Later, as the week progressed one saw just 30-40 people patronizing its show in most of the multiplexes. At some places even in big cities, the response dwindled so low that the multiplexes were left with no option but cancel some of Yuvvraaj’s shows.”

“Salman’s last project, God Tussi Great Ho had met with almost a similar fate and it was necessary for him to deliver a hit in Yuvvraaj. But more than him it is the showman to be blamed for disappointing everybody, including Salman. It is learnt that some portions of the movie have been re-edited. But now its too late!” the source further adds.

Poor Salman – We sincerely hope with Veer he delivers a hit otherwise there a lot of fresh faces who are ready to take over him. Perhaps a few tips on Aamir Khan would help

Audience is the king: Ranbir

Lover boy Ranbir Kapoor has always played the role of a sweet romantic hero in almost all his films and hence the tag lover boy has been linked to his name.

However he says he is here to act and would be willing to take up any job as long as he likes the character and the script.

When people pointed out about him playing a sober character in Prakash Jha’s ‘Raajneeti’, he decided to clear it out.

“I am not a lover boy. I am an actor. I have had just five releases so far and when I got the opportunity to work with Prakash Jha and such a great ensemble cast I felt lucky. Plus I loved the story of the film and hence I happy to be a part of the film,

He adds saying,

“I think it is up to the audience to decide if this is the correct film for me or now,

Item song in Rajneeti

An item song in Prakash Jha’s films is a must. He believes item songs in his films does not halt the story of a film but moves the plot forward.

Television actress Barkha Bisht will be Raajneeti’s item girl. Barkha, who shares a long-distance marriage with her husband Indraneil Sengupta, shot for the song last week, she danced to a sizzling track Ishq Barse Hai Boondan Boondan choreographed by Bosco-Ceaser.

Barkha is really excited these days. Says Barkha,

“The item song in Raajneeti is my big-screen debut. I chose to start my film career with a dance because I’ve been on reality shows on television and have the confidence to carry it off. Also, this is a big film. And I will be noticed. Better an item in a big film than a lead ina film that no one will watch.”

Prakash chose Barkha since he decided to go with an absolutely fresh-faced girl who can dance. His daughter Disha made the final selection.

Ranbir Kapoor is Priyanka’s new fan!!

Looks like Ranbir Kapoor is completely smitten by Priyanka Chopra’s potential.

He is just done with the shoots of Anjaana Anjaani which will see him romancing Priyanka Chopra for the first time.

“Priyanka Chopra is phenomenal talent. If you work with her you will realize how hard she works and how much knowledge she has about performances and character. She is such a fine actor that she betters your work,” says Ranbir.

“I think for her it’s truth and honesty behind every performance that counts,” he adds.

Anjaana Anjaani should release towards the second half of this year. Ranbir now is looking forward to work with Priyanka again in Anurag Basu’s next. And quite natural he is all excited.

Kudos to your hard work Priyanka. Your fan list is never ending.

Innocently, she’d come on set each morning and utter the bad words, that too at the top of her voice,” says Anurag.

Later, when the actress was told the truth she was zapped, but took it very sportingly.
