Shah Rukh or Aamir – who gets the national award?

Though both Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan have proved themselves to be great actors with a huge fan following, the two have never won a national award for the Best Actor category. This year could prove to be lucky to one of the actors as both have been nominated for the best actor category. While SRK has been nominated for his role in Chak De India, Aamir has been selected for playing the lead character in Taare Zameen Par. The Information & Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni is expected to announce the National Awards in the forthcoming week. The distribution ceremony will take place in Delhi where President Pratibha Patil will...

There’s no dearth of the well-wishers of Aishwarya Rai. Just a few days back, when it was learnt that the actress is down with “flu-like symptoms”, rumour began to make rounds that it’s probably swine flu and her well-wishers sent her so many “speedy-recovery” messages that her cell phone crashed. “But it was the common flu. For some bizarre reason, every body assumed that I already had swine-flu. Whoever started that rumour, it caused my phone crash. But, that was not true,” Aishwarya said at the launch of the Conquest Ceramic series of Longines watches in Hyderabad. She’s the brand ambassador of the Swiss watchmaker. Speaking...

You must be wondering about whom we are talking, well, its a person whose name also starts with ‘S’ just like Katrina Kaif’s beau Salman Khan and without whom the lady can’t step out. It’s a girl named Sandhya for the mademoiselle - a friend, confidante and her entire entourage. While other actors and actresses are accompanied with a group of people while they travel: a valet, bodyguard, agents and secretary; Kat has this super woman as her manager and thus, she needs no one else. “Sandhya can fix everything from a switch in the house to organizing my daily affairs with super-efficiency,” the actress was quoted as saying. ...

Pokkiri was a money spinner in Tamil. Now the Hindi remake Wanted, starring Salman Khan and Ayesha Taika in lead roles, is ready for release. Prabhu Deva, who directed the Tamil version, has also directed the Hindi version. Directing the Hindi version (the first Hindi film he has directed) was a difficult proposition, says Prabhu Deva. He felt that the pressure factor was more. "The expectations of these audiences are much higher and one have to cater to a wider range of cultures," revealed Prabhu Deva on his first big test in Hindi. What or who was responsible for the delay in releasing Wanted? Prabhu said he did not want...

The animosity between most actresses is obvious in Bollywood but sensuous Mallika Sherawat not only likes getting compliments but she is also generous when it comes to ‘sshowering’ praises. The voluptuous beauty recently tweeted about Aishwarya Rai when a fan wrote, “Mallika, you sure are making waves ... and we all thought Ash will be doing it.” In reply she tweets, “Thanks, but Ash makes waves all her own. She’s one of a kind!” We can say Mallika is definitely one of a kind too, the first B-town babe to be bestowed with an Honorary Citizenship and Official Resolution by the City of Los Angeles. It was on Independence Day when Mallika...

After keeping away from live stage performances for as long as three years due to his knee injury, Hrithik Roshan is set to step into the spotlight again at the Rajiv Gandhi Awards ceremony in Mumbai on Wednesday. And he won’t be doing his usual mind-boggling western dance moves, but folk dances. The reason? His act ‘Colours Of India’ at the event’s finale will be a tribute to Indian dance and art forms. So instead of the break-dance, Hrithik will do the Lezim folk dance of Maharashtra and the highly expressive Kathakali dance of Kerala mixed with some Kalaripayattu martial art moves. He will also do the contemporary Bollywood dance on...

By a strange coincidence, the ex boyfriends of Aishwarya Rai have been shooting close to the sets of her film Guzaarish in Mehboob Studios in the last few days. First it was Salman Khan who was shooting for his film Veer in the same studio. Now, it was Vivek doing a photo shoot for director Rensil D’Silva’s film Kurbaan close to the sets of ‘Guzaarish’ last week. While Salman chose to stay away from the cast and crew of Bhansali’s film despite the director being a good friend, Vivek decided to drop by on the sets just to meet his good friend Hrithik Roshan who is Ash’s co-star in the film. But before doing so, Vivek made sure that...

Proposing marriage to an actress is certainly not easy as you know the obvious answer, but then too some star-struck fans go to any extent to show their love. Recently, Asin received a marriage proposal from one of her fans and the man did it with passion and panache. He sent her a love letter and a diamond. Wow! That’s our reaction, but what about Asin, how did she react? The dainty actress confirms the news and was quoted as saying, “It’s an extremely personal issue involving a fan and I wouldn’t really like to comment on it.” So, for the actress this is a personal issue but one can’t deny that she was overwhelmed by it. According...

Dismissing reports in some sections of the media that his daughter-in-law and former Miss World Aishwarya Rai has swine flu, Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan has said Aishwarya’s health has improved and is much better and will be ready to resume work in a day or two. ”No, she does not have swine flu,” Amitabh Bachchan said on his blog on Monday, thus clarifying reports in this regard appearing in the media.

If rumours are to be believed, Bipasha Basu might soon be making her tv debut. If you are the one who always thought Bipasha resembled Hollywood hottie Tyra Banks you may not be completely wrong for Bipasha might get into Tyra’s shoes by doing a desi version of her show ‘America’s next top model’.

It’s celebration time in Bollywood. After a lull that lasted months in the first half of 2009, the industry now has a lot to cheer about with the quick successes of films like New York, Kambakkht Ishq, Love Aaj Kal, and now Kaminey. Despite a delayed release in Mumbai (due to the swine flu shutdown), the film is estimated to have done business of about Rs. 22 crores with the occupancy rate in multiplexes bordering on 75 to 80 percent, just a little less than Saif Ali Khan’s ‘Love Aaj Kal’. Abroad, the film has done better in US than in UK. In the US the film raked in a decent sum of $726,834 (Rs. 3.55 crores approximately) in the...

Shah Rukh Khan has always maintained that he has never faced discrimination for being a Muslim. But when he was detained for about two hours by airport officials in U.S. this week, he made sure every media carried his story. Following this, there have been debates over the possibility of Shah Rukh trying to milk this episode for the promotion of his forthcoming film ‘My Name Is Khan’ being directed by his buddy Karan Johar and reportedly based on the same subject of community discrimination. So would it be right to say that the Badshah of Bollywood is leaving no stone unturned to play up this episode for the sake of free international...

Aamir Khan's wife Kiran Rao has suffered a miscarriage, the Bollywood superstar disclosed Tuesday. "I have bad news folks. Kiran and I lost our baby. Despite our best efforts we were unable to avert a miscarriage. The last two months have been a struggle for us and that is one of the reasons I was absent from the blog in more ways than one. I need time to heal. I will be away for a while," Aamir posted on his blog aamirkhan.com. The news of Kiran's pregnancy surfaced when she was admitted to Breach Candy Hospital in South Mumbai for fever in June. According to reports, she was three months pregnant at the time. Kiran's directorial...

With her forthcoming Hollywood project ‘Hisss’ on its way to completion, the bosom beauty Mallika Sherawat is more seen in Hollywood these days than in Bollywood. Be it the premieres or the red carpet, twitter headquarters or private parties, she seems to be everywhere brushing shoulders with who’s who of Hollywood. Recently she was seen in a titsy bitsy revealing black dress at the premiere of Brad Pitt starrer ‘Inglourious Basterds’ in LA. There she also seemed to have bumped into director Quentin Tarantino on the red carpet as she has since put up pictures of her meeting with Tarantino on her Twitter profile.

The Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie of Bollywood have run their race – the marriage that grabbed the most headlines in the history of Indian media has broken up! Aishwarya Rai has filed for divorce on grounds of irreconcilable differences. But insiders say that Aishwarya had been talking to Abhishek for long time regarding kids and Abhi wasn’t too keen on the idea to begin with. The sparks had begun almost two years ago when Ash attended a screening of Aamir Khan’s ‘Taare Zameen Par’ and expressed a wish to have at least two kids, before she gets too old. But Abhishek, who is younger than Ash, disagreed and stormed off in a cab leaving Ash...

Bollywood’s male stars seem to have found a definitive way of showing their love to their better half - getting her name tattooed. Saif Ali Khan has Kareena Kapoor’s name inked on his wrist in Devanagri and recently Hrithik Roshan too got wifey Sussane’s name tattooed. Now, Abhishek Bachchan, the least expected of all, is rumoured to be planning to get Ash’s name tattooed on his wrist. However, Abhi is said to be in a dilemma over the language in which he should get Ash’s name inked. Should it be in English or in Hindi or Devanagri? Still, Abhi’s decision to tattoo Ash’s name comes as a surprise because he’s not given to public display...

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor are set to give a sneak peek into their real chemistry through a passionate lovemaking scene in director Rensil D’Silva’s film Kurbaan. So steamy is the scene that now the director is worried that a certain section of the sex-starved audience might storm the theatres just to see Saif and Kareena in bed. “A section of the audience might decide to see the film only to see the real-life couple making love on screen. It would be tragic,” Rensil is quoted as saying in a media report. Expectedly, both Saif and Bebo were comfortable while shooting the scene. They did not even need to rehearse it. On the day...

It's the ultimate coup on television. According to the Bombay Times, a TV channel is trying to rope in Madhuri Dixit and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to judge a dance reality show. Apparently talks are progressing smoothly, but their dates have to match. Both Madhuri and Ash have been among Bollywood's most gorgeous and popular dancing stars. The last time the two shared screen space was in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas. Their number Dola Re Dola was among the high points of the film. Madhuri who has been making frequent trips to India is reportedly very keen on accepting the offer. But it remains to be seen if any other actress...

It’s time for Abhishek Bachchan to change roles. The actor will be donning a Neta’s role soon; however it’s only for the silver screen. Abhishek Bachchan is all set play a politician in his next film with filmmaker R Balki’s ‘Paa’. However, it’s not Paa Bachchan Amitabh who inspired Abhishek for his look of a neta in the film, instead its real life politician Sachin Pilot whose look Abhishek will be sporting. And if reports are to be believed then the character is based on Milind Deora. So we will soon see Abhishek sport crisp white kurta-pyjamas and rimless spectacles. That’s not it! Abhishek will also be playing a politician in his...

The female fans of Shahid Kapur are not done having an eyeful of the actor’s well-sculpted torso in the promos of the upcoming film Kaminey. The actor’s waxed chest, his bulging abs, his biceps and those finely-shaped collar bones flanking his graceful neck, gives Shahid an almost Adonis kind of look. The girls obviously are swooning over him. Since behind every beautiful thing there’s some kind of pain (as says an American singer), getting that perfect body wasn’t a cakewalk for Shahid. Speaking about the shirtless scene, Shahid told a news agency: “This scene was Vishal's vision... he told me he had a scene where he wanted...
