The lives of our Bollywood Celebrity is quite interesting, always! There is something or the other which keeps them in the news for either good things or things they wouldn’t want to be in the limelight for. Here are the 10 most interesting things in Bollywood right now.
The legendary Milkha Singh is bowled over by Farhan Akhtar’s depiction of him in the movie. Says the original sprinter, “He is exactly how I wanted to see myself on screen. Full credit to Rakeysh for seeing me in Farhan. Many actors, including Akshay Kumar, wanted to play Milkha Singh. But the boy (Farhan) has done kamaal. He has replicated me on screen. He even resembles me. The body language and the discipline Farhan adopted to play me… yeh koi maamooli baat nahin hai (it was not easy).”
Admits the fashion diva, “Very thoughtfully I tried not to do much with my father. It’s a very selfish decision, as I just wanted my own identity. So even when Aisha was produced, my sister (Rhea Kapoor) produced it. It was her first film. I never asked my father to do this for me. I think I have a man’s ego in a lot of ways.”
Apparently, Piggy Chops is so mightily pissed about her look test for the Mary Kom biopic being leaked online that she has expressed her desire to do the make-over all over again. However, the latest we hear is that the actress will not resemble Mary Kom in terms of looks, but will only sport the boxing champ’s hairstyle.
Actress Priyanka Chopra, who will be essaying the role of Olympic Bronze medalist Mary Kom, visited the boxer’s hometown Imphal to get first hand information about her. The National Award winning actress, who has been taking notes on Mary Kom’s life, was guided by none other than the player herself. Here is a picture of the Desi Girl with Mary and her husband K Onler Kom and their twin sons, Rechungvar and Khupneivar.
Jacqueline Fernandez felt like home while in Macau. Double thumbs up for that pretty face and the cheerful and peppy pic!
Wearing colored bottoms, Rani, Kats and Parineeti took in the recent movie screening. Kangana joined the ladies wearing hot pants. Any favorites?
Time and again, this Besharam star is clicked showing off the wrong finger. Way Ranbir why? We certainly expect much better from you.
Shahrukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit relived the Dil Toh Pagal Hai magic, on the sets of Jhalak Dikhla Ja. The duo danced to the tune of ‘Are Re Are’.
Imran Khan and Kareena Kapoor seem to be living it up while filming director Punit Malhotra’s film Gori Tere Pyaar Mein. These stills from the film’s sets reveal some candid moments between the trio.

Hot & steamy scenes from Bollywood movies, 2013
Nowadays, every Bollywood movie has to have at least two to three bold and sexy scenes. Even a serious film like Shootout at Wadala had a few steamy scenes between the lead actors. We bring to you some of the boldest views featured in recent Bollywood movies, 2013.
The film starred newbies Arjun Kapoor and Sasha Agha. Their lovemaking scene in the film scorched the screens. Interestingly, Sasha, who is the daughter of notable Pakistani actress and singer Salma Agha, debuted with Aurangzeb and was bold & comfortable enough to don a bikini, despite coming from a culture that expects women to be more modestly dressed.
Starring John Abraham and Kangana Ranaut in the lead, Shootout at Wadala saw some intense and raw lovemaking scenes. Apparently, the entire set had to be emptied out for the shoots and just the key technicians were permitted. Sanjay Gupta, the director of the film stated that these are the first-of-their-kind scenes for a Bollywood movie; sexual yet aesthetically shot.
This glamorous flick had a steamy scene between Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone. One of the most loved on screen couples, Saif and Deepy took their sizzling chemistry to a whole new level. Apparently, Deepika, who has never shied away from on-screen intimacy, this time was a bit reluctant. However, a pro that she is, the actress finally said yes to the lovemaking scene, considering its relevance to the script.
The movie, like it’s prequel, was packed with bold scenes. Mahie Gill did what she does best: portrayed her sexy self. Buzz was that the lovemaking scene was too bold and so the actress had a word with the director to tone it down.
Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha made love on screen in their latest flick Lootera. Ranveer reveals,“Vikramaditya made a closed set for our comfort where there was only the cameraman, Vikram, me and Sonakshi. He gave us our own space and was very supportive.”

Top 6 most powerful actresses in Bollywood
Power is sexy and seductive. It’s like a drug one would never want to let go off. In a male dominated country like ours, where women find it hard to break out, there are some sectors where feminine strength has begun to hold strong. Here’s a look at some of the leading ladies of Bollywood who inspire everyday women with their bold choices and strong personality.
She is a woman of substance. With the kind of competition in the world of Bollywood today, unlike other actors who prefer playing it safe, our lady Vidya Balan is doing just the opposite – the unimaginable. Busting the myth that leading actresses fade with age, Vidya has become a symbol of women power and emancipation. Marrying Siddharth Roy Kapur at the peak of her career shows how comfortable she is in her skin. The actress has proved to the audiences that one doesn’t really need a ‘Khan’ in their films to deliver superhits.
She is the reigning queen of Bollywood. Every actor, be it new or established ones, craves to act opposite her. In a span of 13 years,Kareena has done it all, from acting in critically acclaimed movies like Chameli and Omkara to comedy flicks like Jab We Met and Golmaal 3. Her thumkas and jhatkas added to her glamour, proving that she’s the embodiment of an all-round movie star. She also became the first actress to be part of three back-to-back blockbusters (3 Idiots, Golmaal 3 and Bodyguard). Kareena is currently the highest paid actress and charges as much as her male counterparts.
She is the ultimate diva and is absolutely worth all the attention, praise and appreciation she gets. Right from the age of 21, Aishwarya Rai has won millions of hearts. Whatever she does inevitably becomes a topic of discussion. Shutterbugs love her and go literally wild even if they manage to catch a glimpse of the actress. Needless to mention, Aish is the global face of India. She is an ideal, an example or whatever you may call it, to a million of young ladies. Currently, the actress is enjoying motherhood, But Aish, we really really REALLY miss you, on screen.
Every filmmaker wants a piece of her. The Barbie doll of Bollywood,Katrina Kaif sloughed it out really hard, to earn the respect and reputation that she has today. The actress is considered as one of the most bankable stars in the industry. Her pretty face and that Brit accent is only a bonus. She is an inspiration to many young dreamers. Despite being an outsider, Katrina is a proof that with hard work, everything is possible. Today, the actress is doing extremely well for herself in the big, bad world of movies. Her role in the upcoming Dhoom 3 with perfectionist Aamir Khan, is much awaited and Kats popularity only seems to be soaring by the day.
She’s a super talented and absolutely brilliant actress, an amazing singer and most importantly, a beautiful human being. Her diversifying talent is what makes her a hotter property with every passing day. The Dostana babe has done it all, from anchoring shows, to acting and even singing. Ok! She has not always tasted hits but I guess, a film like Barfi! is enough to overlook all her flops, no?
She is one actress who has created a tremendous impact on filmmakers and continues to do so even today. Kajol is a powerhouse of performance and continues to give her counterparts a race for their money. Though the actress may not have had a single release in the past two years, we hear that she is currently reading a lot of scripts, and hence news of her next film is eagerly awaited.

Shahid Kapoor desperately needs a hit to compete with Ranbir/Ranveer!
When Shahid Kapoor made his Bollywood debut with Ishq Vishk, people said he was just a copy of Shahrukh Khan but if you look from another angle, people actually saw a hint of the King Khan in this new actor. But now, you might just find a bit of Salman Khan in Shahid Kapoor when his movie Phata Poster Nikla Hero releases.
Looking at the past and how all the new actors like Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and Imran Khan have become so bankable, Shahid Kapoor desperately needs a huge hit. The actor entered Bollywood almost a decade ago and has appeared in 19 movies and was also hailed as the next big thing in Bollywood. But his journey hasn’t been the way he wanted to and delivered six straight flops.
He somehow managed to lose Karan Johar’s Gori Tere Pyaar Mein and Yash Raj Film’s Shudd Desi Romance with his not-so-friendly attitude and with not many movies under his belt except for Rambo Rajkumar & Phata Poster Nikla Hero, he really needs to start working hard enough to compete with the new crop of stars!

Deepika to play Shahrukh’s leading lady in Happy New Year
Even before their film Chennai Express released on August 9, Deepika has bagged another lead role opposite SRK in Farah Khan’s next
Slow and steady wins the race, they say, and it recently turned true for Deepika Padukone. The Chennai Express actor has bagged the coveted role opposite Shahrukh Khan in Farah Khan’s next directorial venture, Happy New Year. A little birdie tells us that Deepika had been eyeing the role for quite some time, but she was patient since her dates were being worked out.
After a lot of speculation as to who will star opposite the Baadshah in his next home production, we are glad that we will get to see SRK and Dippy together on screen again soon. First it was Jennifer Winget Grover of Saraswatichandra fame and then it was Sushant Singh Rajput’s girlfriend Ankita Lokhande who were rumoured to play SRK’s leading lady, as Farah was looking for a fresh face.
Later, it was Katrina Kaif whom Shahrukh was rooting for, especially after their movie Jab Tak Hai Jaan did well.
Deepika has been finalised now. She debuted in SRK’s production Om Shanti Om that was directed by Farah. So she is Farah’s baby, so to speak.
Happy New Year is to go on floors in September 2014. The film also stars Abhishek Bachchan, Boman Irani, Vivaan Shah and reportedly Prithviraj who was last seen opposite Rani Mukerji inAiyya and also in a supporting role in Aurangzeb.
Now that sounds like a package deal. We all just hope that there are no changes in the cast!

Filmfare Awards 2008 announced, 53RD Fair One Filmfare awards
Filmfare awards 2008 are finally out. Akshay Kumar fans are in for disappointment as he did not win a single award. We had predicted that he’d get the Best Actor in a Comic Role for atleast one of the 5 back to back hits he had given. Sadly the category itself was scrapped out this time. It is ironical because comedy was the toast of the year 2007.Ditto for the Filmfare Award in a Negative Role, there was no award itself…God knows why, Viveik Oberoi and Arjun Rampal who were supposed to be favorites in this category have not got their due.
Now for the report card. …Shahrukh Khan won the Filmfare Best Actor award 2008 for his underplayed role of a hockey coach in Chak De India. This time Shahrukh Khan joins Dilip Kumar as the person who has won the highest number of Filmfare Best Actor awards ever.
Kareena Kapooor won the Filmfare Best Actress Award 2008 for her role in Jab We Met. She got the award from none other than Saif Ali Khan(a picture perfect moment). Best Film 2008 went to Taare Zameen Par. The Best Director’s Award went to Aamir Khan who beat the likes of Shimit Amin, Farah Khan, Imtiaz Ali,Anurag Basu and Mani Ratnam to get the award. Of course, Aamir Khan never turned up for the award.
Filmfare Best supporting actor award went to Irrfan Khan. Though his role was more comical, he should have got the Best Actor in a comic role and Aamir could have suited the Best Supporting Actor award(he was nominated) for his splendid portrayal in Taare Zameen Par. But then we cannot question the results can we?
Filmfare Best Supporting Actress award went to Konkana Sen Sharma for her role in Life in a Metro. The Best Music award for 2008 went to A.R.Rahman for Guru (funny Taare Zameen Par wasn’t even nominated, though people liked it so much!). The Best lyrics award went to Prasoon Joshi for Maa. Shaan won the Filmfare Best Male Playback singer award for his rendering of Jab se Tere Naina (Saawariya) and Shreya Goshal bagged he Filmfare Best Female Playback singer for her sweet rendering of the song “Barso Re”(Guru).
Deepika Padukone won the Best Female Debutante 2008 award. Quite obviously Sonam and Anil Kapoor did not attend the award. Ranbir Kapoor won the Best Male Debut award 2008 for his role in Saawariya. To add more to Sonam’s woes, Deepika Padukone also won the Fresh Face of the Year award.
Filmfare critics awards:
Darsheel Safary won the Critics awards for Best Actor 2008 for his role in Taare Zameen Par.
Tabu won the the Critics awards Best Actress for her performance in Cheeni Kum.
Director Shimit Amin won the Critics award for the Best Director while Chak De India won the Best Film 2008 in the critics category
Here are the Filmfare 2008 awards for technical categories:
Best story: Amol Gupte(Taare Zameen Par)
Best dialogue: Imtiaz Ali (Jab We Met)
Best screenplay: Anurag Basu(Life in a Metro)
Best Action: Rob Miller(Chak De India)
Best Art direction: Samin Chanda(Guru)
Best choreography: Saroj Khan(Barso Re, Guru)
Best background music-A.R.Rahman(Guru)
Best cinematography: Sudeep Chaterjee(Chak De India)
Best editing: Amitabh Shukla(Chak De India)
Best sound: Dwarak Warrier, Leslie Fernandes and Madhu Apsara for Johnny Gaddar.
Life Time Achievement award: Rishi Kapoor
R.D.Burman Music award: Monty Sharma(Saawariya)
Power award-Yash Chopra and Aditya Chopra(Dunno how because of the films by Yash Raj had flopped left, right and center, except for a Chak De India. Guess, they got the "power award" because they are powerful in the film industry..... Filmfare awards itself was hosted at Yash Raj studios!
Now for our readers, what do you think?
Do you think Akshay Kumar got a raw deal and Vidya Balan’s talent in Bhool Bhulaiya went unnoticed?
Do you think it is stupid for Taare Zameen Par not to be nominated in the music awards, while Saawariya is included?
Do you think Jab We Met should not have got the Best dialogue awards considering the likes of Chak De India, Taare Zameen Par or Om Shanti Om had better dialogues?
Do you think the Best Music should have gone to Vishaal-Shekhar because they provided variety in their album while Rahman was predictable?
Do you think Darsheel Safary should have got the Best Actor award?
Do you think 53RD Fair One Filmfare Awards is indeed a Fair One?

His girl friend, Priyanka, is also an agent like him at the call canter who is about to be snatched by an NRI techno geek.
There is also the aspiring model, Esha, who is hopping for the break that seems to be always already eluding her and the man about town, Vroom, who is into well, things. The housewife, Radhika, who is constantly at the receiving end of her mother-in-law and a beleaguered grandfather, Military Uncle, who has been barred from interacting with his grandchild make up the rest of the call agents who see their worlds crumbling around them as the decisions of right sizing are conveyed by Bakshi, the boss.
It is a night when dreams will finally crumble. Or will it? For there is that call from God. Narrated as a tale within a tale as a beautiful woman meets the auteur narrator and promises him a story on the condition that he has to narrate it further, Hello, based on Chetan Bhaqat's one night @ the call Center, is the one remarkable story from Tales from a Thousand and One globalizing, urban, Indian Nights.
