RAIMA SEN's -----POT BELLY DANCE!!!!!!

Well the blue-eyed bengali actress Raima Sen, surely has to make some significant changes in her New Year Resolutions for she has gained oodles of weights these days.

Recently, she was asked to dance for a new year party for THE COUNTRY CLUB,India; which was held in Dubai and as per the shows requirements Raima was asked to wear a revealing outfit. But for her own goodsake, even after wearin the skin fit dress her belly seems to be bulging out of her skirt which looks a bit odd for her profession as a Bollywood actor.

I can understand Raima that you just cant get enough your appetite for Bengai sweets but babes you gotta lose some weight to fit into the bill of bollwood actresses who are dying and craving to get the size- zero figure.

Let bygones be bygones, i just hope that you hit the gym so that you quickly lose weight and look gorgeous as you looked in your early days...

So, for at least next 15 days, Mugdha with her all her suitcases in her car is living life hippie style , making her pit-stops at each friend’s house for a day. That’s a foreign lifestyle in India!

Salman weeps about his recent spat with his old pal--SRK...

Though Shahrukh many times spoke about his spat which took place at Katrina’s birthday bash, Salman has hardly spoken in media. Like King Khan, Salman was also hurt for loosing a close and old friend like him. Salman was uninvited at SRK’s birthday but his family graces the occasion. While speaking to media about the fight, he was in tears.

When asked what he thinks about his family participating Shahrukh’s party, he remarked, "If they want to participate in SRK’s family events they are more than welcome to do that. But don’t you think that it’s a kind of a joke that from one side it’s straight from the heart one family and from one family it’s straight from the brain? Oh yeh Salman ke behalf pe aa rahe hai so he (Salman) looks like a fool. Yeh sabko bulaya gaya, yeh sab aayenge, they are all here, so Salman must be wrong. Because my family is socializing at SRK’s family events!"

Salman then went onto state that it was Shahrukh who told the media about their little disagreement. "As soon as Shahrukh left the party, he started calling up the media! I didn’t speak till one week after the fight because he was trying to put me in the middle of something which is not cool from any angle! That is the time I stood up and started speaking. There is no reason for disrespect. Everybody messes up. I have messed up also not once but so many times, without any malice, any manipulation or agenda. If things go wrong between two buddies we say 'okay buddy let’s hang out together and sort it out' but if you are going to mess up and disrespect me then forget it,” said a tearful Salman.

John's serious about his acting skills these days!!!

In the last 3 years, he has proved his mettle in films like No Smoking (surreal), Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal (sports), Water (period), Salaam-e-Ishq (emotional), Kabul Express (action drama), Taxi No. 9211 (comic drama), Zinda (intense) and Garam Masala (comedy). Still, John Abraham is being tagged as a non-actor by quite a few of his detractors. Does he ever wonder why?

"Well, you have rightly put them as detractors. Quite a lot of them actually are of such breed though there are some well wishers who are genuine in their feedback and point out things which are meant to be improved. I truly appreciate such criticism and accept their feedback graciously. As for the rest they can forever continue to speak the way they do. I can't do things just in order to please them", says John in an earnest tone even as he gets ready to battle the critics once again with Dostana.

"Sach bolun toh not at all", says John without blinking an eyelid, "Listening to them is like listening to a broken record. It goes on and on without any rhyme or reason and I don't have time or energy to correct it. What matters to me is whether my audiences, producers and directors want me on screen or not."

Mentioning about his endeavor to be a part of commercial cinema, John says, "I have to give quality films to my audience. I want to see them laugh and make them happy. My kind of cinema has to be very good and commercial. And I can proudly and confidently say that Dostana is a piece of such cinema."

PRIETY EAGER TO DO HAPPY ROLES....SO WE ARE..!!!

Preity Zinta is proud of her work in the last year in such movies as The Last Lear, Heaven on Earth and Heroes. Heaven on Earth in particular has done well at the Toronto, London and Chicago International Film Festivals where Preity won the Best Actress Award, the Silver Hugo. However, she says she wants to break away now from doing sad roles for a while.

"I've been so sad in my last couple of films," she says. "Maybe I ought to do a romance, because in those roles I look better and feel - ah, so happy! I could even do an action film, because that's the only genre left that I've not ventured into."

Her penetrating role as a widowed mother in Heroes has also brought her a great deal of attention. She is particularly pleased as many of her friends were urging her to turn down the difficult role. How did she feel about that?

"Well, it was quite disappointing that many of my close friends kept discouraging me from playing this role," she says. "But, it was falling in love with my characterization once the director had narrated it to me that changed my mind. The character of the Punjabi girl reminded me of my mother and many complimented me for it, especially in my wedding clothes."

Preity has a degree in criminal psychology and is co-owner of the Punjabi Kings cricket team. She won a National Bravery Award for testifying against the Indian mafia in the Bharat Shah case in 2003. She is a real-life hero.

AAMIR AMONGST THE SIX PACK GANG...OTHERS BEWARE OF HIM.....!!!

The utterly dedicated actor Aamir’s latest upcoming venture Ghajini has prompted him to not only go bald but also working out at the fitness centers to get the six pack abs, in short, doing up Salman Khan’s look!

Ghajini, inspired from the cult English classic, Memento, is a psychological adventure movie. Aamir Khan is in the lead role with Asin (actress from South) and Jiah Khan.

According to the media sources, Ghajini‘s lead role demanded Salman Khan looks and thus the actor could have been a better choice for character.

Here is an exclusive picture of the secretive actor Aamir, in his first six pack abs look…DO CHECK DEM>>>>

WTF...Kareena Kapoor declined offer of acting opposite to Johnny Depp...

Kareena Kapoor in a recent development declined offer of Gurinder Chadda of casting her against Johnny Depp in a Hollywood Production. Bebo excused the offer terming it as not productive and big in terms of acting roles she has in Bollywood movies.

However, some other sources revealed that it is the date problems that compelled Karenna to drop this idea as she is over consumed in suiting sessions with number of movies, she is doing for Bollywood.
What ever may be, the truth, yet Kareena feels herself to be far comfortable in working in Bollywood instead of part of Hollywood paternity.

Aishwarya claimed to have the most Sexiest EYES

Yet another title for Miss World and Bachchan Bahu, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Beating her Hollywood counterparts, Ash has grabbed the title of the woman with the sexiest eyes and yes, no one can question that. American television channel E!’s Sexiest Body Parts list crowns Ash as the woman with the sexiest eyes leaving behind Hollywood icons like Angelina Jolie, Megan Fox and Scarlett Johansson. Meanwhile, Irish actor Jonathan Rhys-Myers (of Bend It Like Beckham fame) won best male eyes award.

Other winners includes Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen who won the sexiest legs award, Charlize Theron bags E!’s decolletage award with her sultry shoulders, Eva Mendes voted lovely locks, Taiwanese actress Shu Qi took away sexiest lips title. Scarlett Johansson has been voted the female celebrity with the best breasts. Actress Jessica Biels butt has topped the list of E!’s sexiest bottom and the list goes on.

So, this is another proof to the fact that Aishwarya’s blue eyes have mesmerized not only Bollywood but also Hollywood!

Movie review.-----HEROES!!!!

Samir Karnik after two back to back flops (Kyon Ho Gaya Na and Nanhe Jaisalmer) makes a grand comeback with a Heroes, a good film that tugs your heart strings and makes you think.

It tells the story of two aimless youth Sammy (Sohail Khan) and Ali (Vatsal Sheth) who have to travel a thousand miles to deliver three letters as a part of their film school assignment. But little do they know that the journey they have embarked upon will end up giving a new meaning to their life. Unfolding in three chapters it tells peaks into the lives of Balkar Singh (Salman) and Kuljeet Kaur (Preity) in the first chapter, brothers Vikram (Sunny) and Dhananjay Shergill (Bobby) in the second chapter and that of Dr. Naqvi (Mithun) and his son Sahil (Dino) in the final chapter.

How Sammy and Ali's encounters of heroes in real life changes their attitude towards their own life and our country forms rest of the film.

It is a very good subject that doesn't involve any jingoism from our country's army men characters to prove their love for the nation. Though the opening sequences (including a mindless song) appear a little irritating, the film takes a good turn once the chapters start unfolding back to back. The culmination is the high point of the film which makes us all feel proud for country and our army men and also makes us realize at the same time that you don't have to be in the army to be a real hero. Every common person has it in him to be a Hero. The title of the film couldn't have been more apt.

Scenes between Salman and Preity, Bobby and Sunny have turned out very well. You are in tears in most of the places. This film is a pleasant surprise if you go in without any expectations. The performances by every single actor take this film above average. Salman and Preity not only look like a real couple but they are very much in character appearing real Punjabis. Sunny gets some whistle blowing moments after a long time in a Bollywood film. Bobby in a short role impresses and so do Dino and Mithun. Vatsal shows remarkable improvement as an actor post his disastrous debut in Tarzan the Wonder car. Sohail with his witty one-liners keeps you engaged and shows the transformation of his character very well. Amrita and Riya hardly have any role to speak about.

Samir Karnik deserves kudos for choosing a great subject and narrating it very well. He has very well incorporated strong emotions that bring a tear to you eyes. Don't miss this film; we are sure you will come out a changed person when you see it.

Review: ‘Drona’ a.k.a ‘Drown’a, an uninteresting legend!

Boasting of a top-notch start cast, with the likes of Abhishek Bachchan, Kay Kay Menon, Priyanka Chopra and Jaya Bachchan, the movie adheres to a stereotype filmy drama which is an amalgamation of romance, vengeance and victory over evil. Picturised on time beyond time, Drona’s world was touted to be truly beyond imagination. It must have sounded outrageously ambitious. It's a film that starts in the US, moves to the deserts of Rajasthan and makes an exit run into a never-never land where blue petals shower down on the screen creating an area of enchantment and incandescence without letting the spectacle dominate the characters.

Goldie Behl’s second directorial venture leaves a lot to be answered, it ends up being a perplexed effort which leaves the audience bamboozled! However, it still manages to create a little impact with it’s somewhat unique super hero intervention. The film is a stylised ‘fantasy flick’, with a rather experimental score set by Dhruv Ghanekar.

The story goes like this…

The warrior, Aditya (Abhishek Bachchan) is brought up by a foster family, unaware of his real identity as well as the unique destiny that awaits him. But a haunting nightmare, keeps on distressing Aditya. On the other hand, an evil sorcerer, Riz Raizada (Kay Kay Menon) is desperate to know of a deep secret – the secret, which is the missing link, in his grand plan of taking over the universe. But to know the secret, he would have to confront Drona.

Eventually, the sorcerer comes to know that Aditya is actually Drona and he starts hunting for him. Just when Drona is about to be captured, a cult that believed that Drona is a Messiah come to his rescue. Drona meets Sonia (Priyanka Chopra), leader of the cult, who reveals Aditya's real identity to him. Sonia also takes Aditya back to his place of birth, the ancient kingdom of Pratapgarh where his mother, Queen Jayanti Devi (Jaya Bachchan) would have answers to all his questions but before that Riz roughs up with them.

Aditya now has no option but to rise to the occasion and embrace his destiny. For the sake of mankind he becomes the legendary warrior he was born to be - Drona. As the clash between good and evil becomes dark and dangerous, Drona comes to know about the mysterious secret and he is all set to save the world.

Confused….?

Well, that’s what ‘Drona’ has to offer you… a hell lot of complicated twists and turns, perhaps that’s exactly where it fails to impress!

For, a Hindi film the movie no doubt has amazing visual affects and is the stuff childhood fantasies are made of. But, that’s about it.

So, Abhsihek’s been saying that he is no superhero in the flick, yet powerful and the point is hence proved because ‘Drona’ hardly ever fights! For most of the film it's his sexy guard who takes care of all the action or the evil magician who is getting the better of him.

Abhishek’s performance falls flat as he has weighty issues. Guess he should take some cue ever-so-fit wife, Aishwarya!

‘Drona’ chants mantras and i<>shlokas, lifts his sword and receives a new set of powers. The complete lack of information about what exactly are his strengths is very unimpressive.

And, the 22 crore worth villainous look for Kay Kay was just good for laughs! But the fine actor that he is, Kay Kay gives the flamboyant villainy his best shot.

It’s two cheers for ‘Drona’!

Hrithik Roshan sizzles with Latin actress Barbara Mori in ‘Kites’

Hrithik Roshan sizzles with Latin actress Barbara Mori in ‘Kites’. The film by Anurag Basu is being touted as featuring the Bollywood superhero’s most sensuous role till date.

“The two sizzle together. This is Hrithik’s most sensuous film to date. The accent here is not only on his dancing but on his ability to generate sensuality which has so far remained largely under wraps, the chemistry with Aishwarya Rai in ‘Dhoom 2′ notwithstanding. In ‘Kites’, Basu has shot another more sensuous side of Hrithik,” said a source close to the film.

According to sources, the scenes between Hrithik and Barbara were so intimate and sensuous that Rakesh Roshan would gently be asked to leave the set.

The Roshans are not talking about the film’s sensuous theme and scenes, but Roshan Sr does inform that all is smooth sailing with “Kites”.

“We are on schedule. After finishing shooting in New Mexico on Sep 12, we’ve shifted to Las Vegas. From here we’ll relocate for the last lap of the US shooting to Los Angeles on Oct 3. We’re returning to Mumbai on Oct 12,” said Rakesh Roshan.

However, there was change of guard in the crew. Cinematographer Bobby Singh opted out of “Kites”, but Hrithik claims there was no ill-will involved in the changeover.

“It was an amicable split. Now Ayananka Bose is doing it,” said Hrithik

Ayananka, who was a former assistant to the well-known cinematographer Ravi Chandran, had shot Yash Raj Films’ “Jhoom Barabar Jhoom”.

The change, says Hrithik, has made no difference to the project.

“We shifted earlier this week to Las Vegas as per plan. We’re now here in Vegas for a month. Then we shoot in Los Angeles for eight days. After that we’re done,” said Hrithik.

Kangana Ranaut, who plays the female lead in “Kites”, has just joined the Roshans and her favourite director Anurag Basu in Vegas.

After working with Kangana in “Gangster - A Love Story” and “Life… in a Metro”, Basu strongly recommended the actress to the Roshans who liked what they saw.

Aishwarya poses hot for Vogue

Well we bring for you more sizzling photos of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan from her photoshoot for Vogue.

This bahu surely knows how to look hot.

Bebo’s new look in 3 Idiots

Check out Kareena Kapoor’s look from her upcoming movie 3 Idiots which also starrs Aamir Khan.

I wonder what is this film about, as far as I can make out there I cannot see any similarity between this movie and the book.

Take Me As I Am says Deepika Padukone!!!

Deepika Padukone has got a lot of fame in a very short span of time. She created waves in the fashion world first where she hit the ramp and finally when she made a debut with Farha Khan’s Om Shanti Om, we know that this girl really has the X-factor.

She is smart, she is beautiful and she is sexy, plus she acts quite well. We are impressed but what does it take to impress this beautiful girl.

She says, “Honesty, good natured, helpfulness and a nice sense of humour are the ‘must haves’…‘Good looks’ is obviously there in my list, but it does not figure that high in the pecking order.”

And guess what is Deepika’s idea of an ideal romantic escapade, “We would go to Rishikesh for some serious mountaineering and river rafting. I love adventure sports.”

The lass has some serious mind between those ears and she definitely cannot be taken for granted. She makes clear that she is not the sort who can change the way she is for a guy.

“If he likes me, he will have to accept me as I am. So definitely, he would have no right to dictate to me.”

Minissha Starved To Be Bikini Fit..!!!!!

Minissha Lamba is seen in a bikini in her latest release Kidnap. She plays a 17-something hot chic who is filthy rich. One of her favorite hobbies is of course swimming in the ocean.When Sanjay Gadhvi offered the role to Minissha, he told her that there is going to be a Bikini scene. Minissha has been fairly conservative with her roles so far this was going to be her first bikini scene. And her first reaction to this was -

“My first reaction was that I hope I have enough time to get bikini fit, because as of today, you cannot put me in a bikini and shoot. Sanjay [Gadhvi, director] gave me eight months to get into shape. He told me to trust him and that this was a fab role for me. I agreed immediately,” said Minissha

“And for that I worked out a lot and starved myself. I gave up pizzas, which I love, and chocolate cakes and beverages,” she explained.

She had complete faith in Sanjay with her bikini scene. “This is a Sanjay Gadhvi film. He is known as very stylish filmmaker. He presents his actors and actresses very well. And you know that his aesthetics are on the mark. As an actor, you have nothing to worry about. You can trust him implicitly.”

Her hard work definitely shows on her body… she looks absolutely fab!

Workers create ruckus on the sets of Himesh's next film..

Early this week, it was a clear commotion on the sets of Himesh Reshammiya's Mudh Mudh Ke Na Dekkh Mudh Mudh Ke aka M2KNDM2K. Some of the workers apparently stopped work for an entire day and launched a protest, Reason? They claimed that they were unpaid for their work and after waiting patiently for last few days, they eventually gave up and put the shooting to standstill. Incidentally, it was supposed to be the last day of the shooting for the film's current schedule.

Says a cast member who was present on the sets when the issue snowballed, "There was clear resentment amongst the workers as they were constantly demanding money to be paid to them for their work over all these days. They had approached people at the levels reachable to them but to no avail. Eventually, they couldn't take it anymore and called it quits. They declared loud and clear that the work would resume only if they were paid for the days they had spent on the sets."

But wasn't it unethical to come up with such measures? "Was it ethical on the part of the makers to keep their own crew members unpaid? Don't these workers have to run their families? All said and done, it never seemed to be the case of shortage of money. These workers were just being shortchanged all this while", protests the source in favor of workers.

Himesh Reshammiya who plays the lead in the film was not present on the sets that day. However, Niharika Singh (leading lady of the film), Farida Jalal and Shakeel Khan (who plays a blind man in the film) amongst others saw all the action right in front of them.

On being contacted, a crew member (on the condition of anonymity) confirmed the news, "Yes, something to the tune of this did indeed happen though everything has been sorted out now. In fact on the same evening the workers were paid their money."

Replying to the query around what had actually transpired; she divulged after an initial hesitation, "It was an internal problem between the workers. The payment was given to an agent who didn't further pay workers on time. This is why once the schedule got over as per the plans on 15th September; they created a scene a day later. The incident happened on 16th and hence didn't impact the schedule at all. Thankfully, there is no issue anymore and we all are looking forward to coming back for the next schedule."
