Ranbir: I've courage to reject

Well, the dead-drop handsome guy, Ranbir Kapoor has been in the news ever since his debut with 'Saawariya'.With reports hitting media that the handsome is dating the gorgeous beauty, Deepika Padukone, the actor is surely set to kick off his own 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahaani'.. And yes, to top it all, this is the next movie that Ranbir has signed…The actor surely has his feet on the ground and true to the RK style, he is ready to play the waiting game and do the best for his career.With film offers flooding from all corners, Ranbir has had the courage and determination to reject the offers as he feels he needs to concentrate on the project in hand.After rejecting offers like Rakeysh Mehra's Delhi 6 and the much-talked about Eros Entertainment venture Freeze, the actor feels, "I'm reading scripts. But I can't bring myself to say yes to offers just for the money or the set-up. My character has to appeal to me".As of now, the tall lanky lad has signed just 2 films, one being 'Bachna Ae Haseenon' under Yashraj Banner opposite Bipasha Basu,Minissha Lamba and Ranbir's real love.Deepika Padukone, and the other being Raj Kumar Santoshi's Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani with Katrina Kaif.Interestingly, Katrina was first offered a role in 'Bachna Ae Haseenon', but later was dropped. When asked about this, Ranbir with a smile says, "No regrets, as I am doing another film with her"…

Sony Entertainment Television has denied that Bollywood actor Salman Khan has been roped in to host a reality show for the channel for a whopping Rs.890 million.'We have no information regarding the show and we don't know who has leaked this news,' a well-placed source in Sony TV told.Another source, however, indicated there is a possibility that Synergy Adlabs might be producing the show.Siddhartha Basu, head of Synergy Adlabs, told: 'Till the shows are officially announced, we are not in a position to confirm what we are producing, for whom and with whom.'According to media reports, Salman will be paid Rs.890 million for doing 104 episodes for the show.Reports also say that Salman's presence in the show is an answer to Star Plus' game show 'Kya Aap Paanchvi Paas Se Tez Hain?' where Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan will play a quizmaster.

Yuvraj wasn't faithful to Deepika

The very gorgeous Deepika Padukone has surely created a wave amongst men after her sensational and outstanding debut with OSO, so much so that she has been seen with various men at various phases of her life, post the success of the film..The girl was spotted first with cricketer Dhoni and later in Australia with Yuvraj Singh with whom she spent her birthday in a grand style..Well, after all this, the girl now seems to have jumped to another shoulder and the buzz now is that she is dating newcomer and star-son, Ranbir Kapoor.Now, what exactly is the truth?According to our sources, "Deepika is in reality a conservative cultured well brought-up girl with the right values. Her relationship with a cricketer fell flat in Australia where he was constantly cheating on her.The heartbroken girl got a solid support system from Ranbir Kapoor at this point of time. They're both in a very happy relationship right now".
On the work front, Deepika has just returned from shoot with Akshay Kumar in Bangkok for Chandni Chowk, and will travel again for the same film later this week..

Shah Rukh Khan has roped in buddy Rani Mukherjee and Bipasha Basu to participate in his IPL video.But Preity Zinta who's currently in London makes it

Shah Rukh Khan has roped in buddy Rani Mukherjee and Bipasha Basu to participate in his IPL video.But Preity Zinta who's currently in London makes it clear she's in no competition with Shah Rukh Khan as far as a star line up in the IPL music video is concerned.Completely cutting down rumours that Preity intends to get buddies Sunny, Bobby and their dad Dharmendra to do a music video, a source very close to Preity says, "The playing field when the matches start in April will be filled with star-cricketers. That takes care of the glam-element.As for the music video we feel it should represent the earthy feel of Punjab and Chandigarh. Hence the robust that Preity and Ness have recorded for their team, as opposed to the poetic lyrical mood of Kolkata and SRK's team.We feel we can't capture the flamboyant and vigorous flavour of if we bring in film stars into the video. Preity wants the video to be very Punjabi. That's why she got Daler Mehndi to sing their theme song."Shah Rukh Khan and Vijay Mallaya on the other hand seem to believe star-lineups to be the best way to attract big crowds to their cricket matches.And here is the rest of it.

Yes, Deepika and I are in love: Ranbir Kapoor

In his most candid interview with Subhash K Jha ever Ranbir Kapoor breaks his silence on his love life.You played a football benefit match in Pune earlier this week and scored 4 goals and was declared Man Of The Match?I've always been passionate about football, though I haven't played much football since school. I went for this one because it was for a good cause. And Salman Khan was also associated with it. About the four goals, I just got lucky, I guess. Our captain was Sohail Khan.You play a Casanova in the Yashraj Film?It's called Bachna Ae Haseenon. I wouldn't say that. It's the journey of this man and the different relationships in various phases of my life.Why was Katrina Kaif's role knocked off?It was getting too long. We had lots of discussions. And it was in the best interest of the film. But why poor Katrina?Nothing personal.And it wasn't only because we hadn't shot her episode as yet.Apparently you get to kiss all your heroines in Bachna Ae Haseenon?That's absolutely incorrect.And now you're doing another film with Katrina!Yes. And I had no hand in it. She was already part of Raj Kumar Santoshi's film when it came to me. It's a lovely romantic comedy. I haven't started pre-production on it.But I'm looking forward to working with Mr Santoshi who's one of my favourite directors. He's definitely one of the master storytellers of our times. He's worked with my father in Damini. And now it's my turn.Have you been offered Aamir Khan's Delhi Belly?Yes, I have. I'm honoured that someone of Mr Aamir Khan's talent wants me to work in his film. We're working on the dates. I'd love to be part of it.There were rumours that you are in Mani Ratnam's film?I am, actually. But not in the Abhishek-Aishwarya one. He has contacted me for a film that he wants to do next year. I really want to work with him. I also want to work with Imtiaz Ali, Aditya Chopra, Farhan tar…oh, so many directors. I'm like a kid at a toy store.You've started looking different?Have I? I think it's important for every actor to feel like the character he's playing.Earlier when I was doing Saawariya I feelt boyish like the character. Right now I've to portray a character going through various phases in his life.So yes, it is a conscious effort to work on my look. Getting that right is twenty percent of the rformance.The look helps the audience connect with the character.
You've been linked with a gallery of gorgeous women in the last two years?I think it's very unfair for the women who are linked so carelessly with me. I can imagine how embarrassing it is for the girl and her family. Very incorrect. Me being linked with Sonam Kapoor was inevitable.Every time two newcomers do a film together they're supposed to be involved. We've been friends since childhood. She's an amazing girl. Anyone would want her as a girlfriend. But we aren't seeing one another.So are you seeing somebody?Yes I am.Are you seeing Deepika Padukone?Yes, I am.How long have you been seeing her?We've been dating for the past couple of weeks.Weren't you linked with her earlier also?I was. But at that time we were just friendly. We weren't seeing each other.So is this serious?Do I look like a frivolous person to you? But before you ask, we aren't getting married right away. Let's see where it goes. And neither are we going to sign films just to be together.

I cannot get a better launching pad than working with the son of a legend: Vivana

Another glamorous model Vivana is all set to enter Bollywood with her upcoming film Jimmy. Vivana feels lucky to have legend Mithun Chakrobarty's son, Mimoh as her co-star.Q. What is Jimmy all about?A. It's a thriller film with lots of action, drama, songs and romance. So it's a typical hindi masala film.Q. Your character in the film…A. It's a very bubbly character with a little bit of ego problem, but the moment she falls in love, everything gets changed and she becomes normal.Q. How was it working with Mimoh?A. It was nice working with him as he has no ego problem and he never showed that he is the son of such a big star. He is very down to earth. He is very supportive and as he has lots of ideas regarding films, he helped me with the camera angle and other things.Q. Are you facing the camera for the first time?
A. I have done lots of ads on television like the Thumbs-up ad with Akshay Kumar, Veet ad with Katrina Kaif, so I have faced the camera that way. Jimmy is the first exposure when it comes to facing the camera for a film.Q. Did you undertake any professional training?A. I went to Anupam Kher's acting school in 2005, for three and a half months. Three months is not enough but a lot of things get clear.Q. Did Mithun da visit the sets?A. Yes, he visited, but he never interfered with anything. He was very normal.Q. Did he give you any tips?A. Yes, he did and not only in acting, but also regarding make-up. I was surprised that in spite of being a man, he knows so many things about make-up.Q. Are you nervous with the release date coming near?A. Do I look nervous? (Laughs), I am not nervous, but I am very much excited because whatever happens is for the best..I wish the audience likes the film, as we all have really worked hard for it and as every newcomer, we too dream of success with this film.People will come to see Mimoh and being the lead actress with him, I too will get noticed and hope that the audience likes the film and our effort.Q. Are you happy with your launch?A. Yes I am happy with the way I am being launched. My father being in the police and my mom a business woman cum housewife, I had no family background when it came to films. What would have been a better launching pad than working with the son of a legend?

Jodhaa Akbar

Starring Aishwarya Rai, Hrithik Roshan, Sonu Sood, Ila Arun, Niketan DheerDirected by Ashutosh GowarikerRating: *** ½There's Akbar, in full regalia, watching a traditional sufi qawalli when he suddenly goes into a spritual trance and joins the qawwalls for a dance to divinity.This historic moment that takes us beyond the distending dynasties of Mughal history, couldn't have been possible without Hrithik Roshan's amazing capacity to infiltrate the portals of divinity through dance movements.
Very often as we, wonder-eyed and open-mouthed, traverse the sanguinary and simply-stunning spectacle of Ashutosh Gowariker's historical epic, we end up looking at King Akbar as interpreted by Hrithik Roshan rather than as what the Mughal myth might have been.The body language of the sinewy sword-wielding poet-warrior takes us back to Mel Gibson in Braveheart and Tom Cruise in The Last Samurai rather than Prithviraj Kapoor who played King Akbar in K Asif's undying classic Mughal-e-Azam with such imposing imperiousness.Is Gowariker's Mughal-e-awesome fated to be as tall and magniloquent as Asif's deserved costume drama? In terms of the creative and visual terrain covered in the course of the 3 hour-20 minute journey from history to hysteria from mellow to melodrama, and back, Gowariker's vision subsumes a reined-in wealth of ideas and images suppressed into an opulent but aesthetic orgy of love, romance, war, hatred and secularism and sublimity.The noble ghteousness of the creative mind (so evident in Gowariker's earlier films Lagaan and Swades) here jumps out of the screen to seize the audience by the solar plexus and transport us into an era when brother battled brother in bitter rage..But love,kambakht ishq, blossomed in the inner chambers of a secular Muslim emperor who married a fiercely individualistic Rajput queen and allowed space to be her own person.Wisely the narrative patterns Akbar's chequered life love and wars through the various characters who influence his mind and heart. To begin with we see the young Akbar being moulded into a violent creature of revenge and acquisition by his senapati-mentor Bairam Khan (Uri).

Is Deepika being maltreated?

Deepika Padukone is currently shooting for Chandni Chowk To China in Bangkok but certainly not happy.We hear that the pretty lass has been put up in the Grand Sukhumvit Hotel along with the rest of the cast and crew, while leading actor Akshay Kumar has been put up at the luxurious Four Seasons Hotel.Though the Grand Sukhumvit is a luxury hotel that boasts of great facilities there is nothing to beat the Four Seasons Hotel where the rates are almost double that of the Grand Sukhumvit.
Reports say that even the director of the film Nikhil Advani is staying at Grand Sukhumvit, but it surely seems to be embarrassing that the leading lady is not in the same hotel as the leading man.It is believed that Deepika complained about this preferential treatment to a friend in the industry.But later Deepika denied reports that she is miffed saying, "I am not upset. As far as I know, I am in a five-star hotel and it's the same hotel that Nikhil, the producers and the rest of the crew is also staying in. It's the Grand Sukhumvit. I am very comfortable and happy. I am being well taken care of."And here is the rest of it.

Katrina-SRK, Numero Uno pair

When it comes to men, hands down, it is the King Khan who gets downloaded most..Well, here's a big cheer for the Numero Uno pair!!

Shilpa Shetty to produce films

shilpa Shetty will soon begin a big budget action-comedy to be made by her production house S2 Global Productions with some top-of-the-line international technicians as part of her crew."It's going to be a two-heroine project. While Shilpa will be playing one part, she is in the process of signing on another big Bollywood heroine for it," confirms her publicist Dale Bhagwagar.After 'Phir Milenge', 'Dus', 'Apne' and 'Metro', the actress has become extremely choosy.While we witnessed a metamorphosis in Brand Shilpa from actress to diva since 'Big Brother' happened to her, she has been offered astronomical amounts for certain film projects abroad as well as in Bollywood.
"Its only natural to be offered unheard of amounts after the kind of international fame she has received," says Bhagwagar and adds, "Shilpa is choosing only those films which will give her complete creative satisfaction."Two of Shilpa's forthcoming movies will witness her in completely different roles.Sunny Deol's next directorial venture 'The Man' (co-directed by Neeraj Pathak) will see her playing a role very close to her real life experience last year.Her character portrays the meteoric rise of a simple but dedicated girl to instant global stardom. Her next project would be filmmaker Uru Patel's international flick 'Hanuman', featuring her in the role of Goddess Sita, with Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves being tipped to play Lord Ram.And here is the rest of it.

Has Katrina Kaif dumped Salman?

Katrina finally seems to be getting away from Salman's shadow. The year 2007 was indeed special for Katrina as she is the only actress to achieve four back-to-back successes in the year in Namastey London, Apne, Partner and Welcome.Today she has become the highest paid item girl in the industry paid a whopping 1.5 crore to shimmy in Shree Ashtavinayak’s next film Blue.The film stars Sanjay Dutt, Akshay Kumar and Lara Dutta in lead roles.We hear, when the production house asked her to do an item number, Kaif initially refused, as she doesn’t want the label of an item girl.But when the makers agreed to pay her a 1.5 crore fee and offered a few more scenes, the actress accepted.
However, Balaji people were not that lucky. When they approached Katrina to do an item number for their next, C Company, the actress flatly turned it down. Money, of course, was the bone of contention. Balaji was not willing to shell out that kind of money.But being an item with a fat pay cheque is not what she all wants, she wants to share space with someone like Hrithik.“I don’t know if I would get an opportunity to work with him so early in my career, but he is one actor I would love to work with, no questions asked," she tells.."The way he put his heart and soul into the character of Akbar left me speechless. I'm looking forward to working with Hrithik sometime soon.”Of course, she is also in for an image makeover, so it is bye bye girl next doot and hello sexy siren phase for Katrina.But this change is not just confined to her professional life. She is also delibrately distancing herself from Salman.So when someone from media asked her Salman Khan and his ongoing flings with Brazilian supermodel Bruna Abdalah and Mahek Chahal Kat just pounced on the poor guy saying," You know, you guys need to learn that when someone is standing before you, you have to treat that person with respect.""It's a ridiculous question, ridiculous. You guys need to learn to draw the line," she added before walking away in a huff.
