Shilpa Shetty starts her blog too!

Even Shilpa Shetty couldn’t resist the charms of having her own blog to vent her feelings. However, Shilpa has an aversion to the term blog and prefers to call her space as ‘Shilpa Channel’ which would help her to keep in touch with her fans and the media.

Shetty lass decided upon ‘Shilpa Channel’ as the name of her blog since the actress used to playfully refer to her appearance on reality show ‘Bigg Boss’ as the same.

Confirming the reports, Shetty in an interview to a news daily said- “I will be starting my blog in a day or two on my official website — www.shilpashettylive.com. It will be good stuff. You will be proud of me.”

According to Shilpa, it was the Mumbai attack which gave her a push to start her website. “I wanted a channel to vent my anger against what has happened to my city. I should have started this when the Richard Gere controversy reputed.”

Never mind Shilpa! Better late than never!

Asin displays two different shades in ‘London Dreams’

Newcomer Asin portrays two different looks for her ‘London Dreams’. At home, she is a docile conservative South Indian girl. But put her on stage and she transforms into a cool chic rock singer with a guitar in her hands and a song on her lips. Though it has not been officially disclosed by producer-director Vipul Shah, it is reliably learnt that Asin even gets to sing in her voice and play the guitar in ‘London Dreams’.

Meanwhile, getting her big break in Bollywood, Asin has moved bag and baggage with her parents to pursue a full-time career in Hindi cinema saying bye-bye to South. However, Asin says she is open to regional cinema if the script is good. The family has been staying in a rented place in the suburbs for a year now.

But now, Asin is ready to buy her own place in Bandra. “We’re looking at some places. And we’ll zero in on the place we want soon.”

About her role in London Dreams Asin is totally tightlipped. “All I can say is, it’s something I’ve never played before. In fact I think it’s a role never seen in Indian cinema. Beyond that I can’t talk about it. But I’m very excited about both Ghajini and London Dreams. I’ve a long list of criteria for selecting a role beginning with the director, banner and co-star and ending with the cinematographer…I want them all to be just right. Am I being greedy? Perhaps. I’m sorry. I can’t settle for anything but the best,” said Asin.

Akshay tattoos for Mumbai terror victims

Instead of penning his thoughts on paper and blogs, King of Bollywood Akshay Kumar has found that his skin is the best plaxe to sport a message for the victims of Mumbai Terror attack and all Mumbaiites.

Akshay will sport the tattoo “Everything’s gonna be alright” on his arm, which is a song from his animated movie Jumbo, apparently the entire cast of Jumbo including Dimple Kapadia will be sporting the tattoo.CEO of producing company of Jumbo, Navin Shah says, “When we were filming this song, we never imagined that it would end up being so appropriate in this situation, but anything that makes people feel good is something we would like to do. The lyrics of the song are appropriate considering what’s happened and the low mood in the country today. Led by Akshay Kumar, everybody without exception, has loved the idea and they actually not only live the thought of it, but will physically put the tattoo on their hands.”

Do you think Akki’s gesture is great?

When Shahrukh Khan Cried!

Shahrukh Khan’s film Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is going to hit the screens tomorrow and people have great expectations from the film. Before the film officially released worldwide, Aditya Chopra held a special screening for the team of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.26/11 terror attacks on Mumbai had a deep impact on Shahrukh and he says he felt ashamed in promoting his film in such a time. On the press meet of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Shahrukh said,“The movie is funny. But when I watched it, I cried and I laughed and I cried because I felt that by killing innocent, normal people, they (gunmen) are denying us the simple pleasures of life…I didn’t feel like saying ‘Go watch a film’ when people had died. What about the thousands who are affected?”“I can’t tell people it will get you out of your sadness, but I can assure you that the two hours and 20 minutes is going to be great fun,” assured King Khan.

Kangana-Adhyayan Locked For Hours In Vanity Van

Kangana Ranaut is sharing screen space with her current boyfriend Adhyayan Suman in Raaz 2 and the lovebirds seem to make most out of the time they are together.

Kangana and Adhyayan fell in love while shooting for Raaz - The Mystery Continues and they were inseperable reports a source on the sets. So much that the two lost count of the time while they were locked together in the vanity van.

They had a shot with Emraan Hashmi who was made to wait for hours before Mohit Suri, the director cancelled the shoot in frustration. Kanagana and Adhyayan unaware of this were really shocked to see the shoot cancelled and apologized to producer Mukesh Bhatt, report sources on the sets.

When this buzz reached Adhyayan’s daddy Shekhar Suman, he was pretty upset. Adhyayan slammed the media for these rumors saying,“Come on, we are young, leave us alone… What have we done wrong to be under constant scrutiny all this while. First and foremost it is our personal life and it is no one else’s business to be interfering in that. Secondly, we have made our relationship public and just because we have done that and don’t have anything to hide, you can’t be writing something since you have to fill up your scoop column. Thirdly, though I could choose to completely keep quiet about it, I can’t help but cry out loud that nothing like this ever happened. Was the person who wrote all this there on the sets to see what was actually transpiring?”“I can go on to say that people should act with some responsibility but I know that it won’t be the last time that something like this has happened. I guess I will have to just start making myself oblivious about such rumors and baseless gossips being written about me. However, it is just not fair for Kangna to be going through this trauma. Guys, respect a lady at least”, said Adhyayan in anger.”Yet again, my dad was upset about the entire incident. I have to time and again pull the strings back and concentrate on my work. ‘Raaz - TMC’ has been such a fabulous movie and it pains when rather than talking about the film, I end up being a part of such conversations. Seriously, I have had enough and it’s just not fair anymore. Kangna has just withdrawn herself from media after this baseless story.”

But Mr. Suman Jr. there is no smoke without fire!

Pink Panther is Not About Me:Aishwarya Rai

Aishwarya Rai’s recent Hollywood venture seemed to be a damp squib when people discovered that she had only a few scenes. But she went ahead and justified her presence and role in Pink Panther saying that she did the movie only for Peter Sellers and not to make any statement.She said, “I loved Peter Sellers as Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther series when I was a kid and watched these films. It was hilarious, a laugh riot and a thorough family entertainer. People across different age groups love ‘The Pink Panther’ because the films always bring a smile to one’s face.”“When I was offered this film, I was really excited as for me I was doing something which I have loved seeing as a child. It was a fun film which I would enjoy working in. The film did not require me to do intense acting and I did not have to look forward to scoring points as it had an ensemble cast of terrifically talented actors. I wanted to have a good time with all of them and I said a yes to the project. I’m not expecting critical acclaim or something from this film since the film is not about me, it’s about Steve Martin and ‘The Pink Panther’.”

Then I wonder what was the hype and hoopla all about!

Sanjay Dutt voluntarily reduces his price

Sanjay Dutt has taken a considerate step towards scaling down of rising star prices in Bollywood at a crucial time with crippling recession, plus the big terror blow that Mumbai suffered on 26/11. Sanjay, who had recently increased his remuneration by a good 60 percent to Rs.15 crore (Rs.150 million) has realized that there is no wisdom in unnecessarily charging a prohibitive fee that brings projects down even before they hits the theatres.

“After the attack on Mumbai, people have cut down drastically on their visits to shopping malls and movie theatres. So the situation has got even worse. We in the film industry are part of one big family and we’ve to make our family survive this worst-ever crisis,” Sanjay said

Sanjay Dutt Productions CEO Dharam Oberoi said, “He thought it would be unfair to hike his prices at a time when the industry is struggling with recession.”

Sanjay is currently shooting for Rahul Dholakia’s Lamhaa. Oberoi said the prices would be effective on films that he signs in 2009.

Asin Going Strong In Bollywood

South Indian actress Asin is going really strong even before her debut Hindi film Ghajini has hit the theatres. The 23 yr old has impressed everyone from Aamir to Salman and even Vipul Shah. She has a meaty Tanishq endorsement and a Fanta advertisement in her kitty that has got her noticed.

Now she has also bagged Tata Sky’s telly ad replacing former Miss India Gul Panag as Aamir’s better half.Asin confirms, “Yes, you’re right. I have signed a deal with Tata Sky for their next television commercial opposite Aamir Khan which goes on air on the 25th December. I haven’t shot for the advert. It should be anytime soon.”It is said to be a promotional sort for Ghajini after its release. Wonder what Gul Panag has to say as Asin steals her screen hubby.

Asin’s next Bollywood film is Vipul Shah’s London Dreams opposite Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan. This girl is surely going hot.

Hema Malini and Jeetendra To Judge Reality Show

Its raining reality shows and yet another show is Dancing Queen to be launched on the channel Colors. The promos show that they are going to choose who makes the best Item girl.

I was rather surprised to see Hema Malini and Jeetendra appointed as judges. Okay, Hema is a trained classical dancer but for dance of this type I expected to see Helen or Bindu on the judges seat. Wonder what Jeetendra is going to judge there.

He looks out of place there just like Chunkey Pandey who judged a reality show. Anyway, there are some interesting participants which include some infamous names from Tellywood and flop actresses of Bollywood starting from Barkha Bisht, Mink, Sambhavana Seth, Meghna Naidu, Anita Hassanandani, Shweta Menon, Sanober Kabir, Ishitta Arun, Bruna Abdullah and Deepshikha.

Lets see if cabarets, item performances and skin show can get them good TRPs. (Dont forget to notice Jeetendra’s jet black hair.)
