Bollywood Gossip - Pataudi gets to meet its Bahu, Kareena!!!
Thursday, November 27, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : Kareena Kapoor is all set to take her relationship with Saif to another level. She'll be visiting his ancestral village Pataudi in Haryana. A privilege that none of Saif ladies from the past have been given.
Confesses Saif, "Yes, Kareena has been invited to Pataudi. It'd have been earlier. But it's too hot right now. Winter is when our family reunions happen every year. And Kareena is now part of the family. My parents are extremely fond of Kareena."
Sighs Saif, "This relationship is 'IT' for me. Today I feel very settled and very happy. Though a bit lonely. And when I've bad days I feel I'm being ungrateful. I'm now looking forward to settling down with Kareena.
Our marriage will happen very shortly as soon as we both have a little less work on hand and we can give the marriage quality time. Also, her family has to be ready for our marriage."
Saif is very happy with Kareena's mom. "We're very close. She has been really gracious in inviting me into her family.
She's made sure I'm part of her family. I've also met Daboo Uncle a few times, shared friendly drinks with her. As for Karisma, I think she's the sweetest girl ever in the world. I'm deeply fond of both Karisma and her husband Sanjay. They're truly wonderful people. Kareena's family has taken to me as warmly as my family has taken to her."
Saif has a lot to be thankful for. "My lifestyle has changed completely after the heart attack. Looking back it's hard to believe I went through such a health scare.
If it wasn't for that life-changing experience I wouldn't be in a relationship with Kareena right now. I hardly drink. Don't even look forward to drinking any more. I don't smoke or party."
All because of love.

Bollywood News - Tusshar Turns Stylist for Makeover Guru Aalim
Monday, October 27, 2008
Bollywood News : Tusshar Kapoor, who plays the character of a mute hair dresser in his upcoming film 'Golmaal Returns' directed by Rohit Shetty and produced by Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd. was recently seen in Hakim's Aalim styling celebrity hair stylist Aalim's hair in role reversal of sorts!!!
Aalim took over Tusshar's hair giving it a funky and stylized look after which Tusshar then took over and went snipping Aalim's hair for which Aalim willingly obliged! Tusshar even handed out a few tips on the techniques used by hair dressers!
Tusshar had prepared for the role by observing Aalim at work. He noticed the way Aalim held the scissors and the cape and set about doing everything.
Says Aalim, "There is a lot of character and style in a hair dresser which Tusshar has successfully incorporated into his character. A successful hair dresser has a sense of humour and personality which Tusshar has essayed very well. Im glad there is someone who is finally playing a hair dresser's role in Bollywood. It's Bollywood's answer to Zohan!!!"
Tusshar who happily snipped away Aalim's hair, admired the way how poised and chilled out Aalim was with his customers and tried to bring out the very same in his role. Always fascinated by the way Aalim constantly changes his own style, Tusshar incorporated the same in the film too for which he sports a different look in the song, and he keeps changing his hair style every couple of scenes.
Says Tusshar, "Im practically playing Aalim in the film. I've copied his style, his look and even have a tattoo of a bird on my arm like Aalim!!! I think Aalim is a great hair stylist and he's a great human being also, and of course he's the best for the stars! "

Bollywood Gossip - Ranbir chooses Bipasha over Deepika
Bollywood Gossip : If you thought love makes a man blind, think again. Neither his fondness for
Deepika Padukone nor her place atop Maxim magazine's Hot 100 list can convince Ranbir Kapoor that she is Bollywood's most explosive bombshell. That singular honour, he feels, belongs to
Bipasha Basu.
"I think Bipasha is the sexiest actress in the film industry and for me she will remain the sexiest for another 50 years to come. After working with her in Bachna Ae Haseeno, I realise why she's often described as Bollywood's ultimate sex symbol. I can't think of any other girl who deserves the title more than her," he says.
Ranbir is not deterred by the thought of offending his two Bachna Ae Haseeno co-stars Deepika and Minissha Lamba. Though the dashing young actor insists he enjoyed working with all three leading ladies and stole their hearts, he has no intention of reconsidering his choice. "Even when I compare the three of them, Bipasha is still the sexiest," he says.
According to Ranbir: "Bachna Ae Haseeno is an excellent film and I enjoyed the company of all three girls. We were comfortable working with each other and I hope that the film will really do well at the box office."
Although his debut film failed to set the cash registers ringing, Ranbir hopes for better luck this time. "I remember my nervousness when Saawariya was released. I have the same feeling once again. I guess it happens with most actors. And since I am a newcomer in the industry, I feel even more pressure at the time of a film's release," he admits.

Bollywood Gossip - Kismet Connection Vs Contract
Tuesday, July 15, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : After last week's releases, which include
Mehbooba and
Mukhbiir, proved to be damp squibs at the box office, Bollywood trade circles have now set their eyes on
Kismat Konnection and
Contract that are releasing this Friday.
After the poor performances of
Good Luck and Rituparno Ghosh's
Khela as well, both the new movies are worth looking forward to because two fine directors, Aziz Mirza and Ram Gopal Varma, are at the helm.
While Mirza is known for making light-hearted romantic fare, Varma scores when he makes gangster movies dealing with subjects related to the underworld.
As Mirza has returned to direction after five years - his last directorial venture was "Chalte Chalte" - so has Varma visited a gangster movie to direct after six years since "Company" in 2002.
Kismat Konnection has generated a lot of expectations also because this is Shahid Kapur's second release after last year's hit
Jab We Met, in which he was paired with his ex-love Kareena Kapoor.
Will his kismat (luck) stays with him through the release of
Kismat Konnection, sans Kareena? For Shahid-Kareena made a fantastic pair in
Jab We Met. Will his pairing with Vidya Balan in
Kismat Konnection work equally well for the both?
"Comparison is uncalled-for, because both
Jab We Met and
Kismat Konnection have approached romance in different ways. All three are good artists, but there are roles in which some fit and others do not. Vidya fits in the role of Priya she has done in my film," said Mirza.
The other attractions of the movie are the boisterous presence of Juhi Chawla and the voiceover given by Shah Rukh Khan.
Contract, on the other hand, has no stars to boast of other than the director himself. Newcomer Adhvik Mahajan is playing the main lead in it.
Since Varma finds himself in his element when he directs gangster films,
Contract is expected to be a hard-hitting movie like his previous hits -
Satya and
Company.
But, according to Varma,
Contract is not exactly a gangster movie. It is mainly about the underworld's links with terrorism told through a terrorist who is well aware of the gangland activities.
After the lukewarm response to
Sarkar Raj, will non-star-cast
Contract succeed at the box office?
"Since it is a theme-based film, it will be a slow-starter, but eventually may do well through word-of-mouth publicity," said a trade analyst.
Some distributors of
Contract reportedly, had suggested Varma to defer the release till August in order not to avoid clash with
Kismat Konnection. But he refused to oblige them, reasoning that the two are diametrically opposite movies.

Bollywood Gossip - New man in Sonam Kapoor’s life
Tuesday, July 1, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : Looks like Bollywood Actress Sonam Kapoor has found her new love in Kunal Kapoor. This Bollywood Kapoor Jodi is nowadays often scene roaming around coffee shops, malls,
etc with hand in hand.
Looking at the recent happenings in both the stars life they really could heal each others broken heart. Where Ranbir Kapoor dumped Sonam for hottie Deepika Padukone, Kunal Kapoor too had a break up with gorgeous Dia Mirza.
So the couple could surely understand each other’s situation and try to bring happiness on their respective lives. Especially, Anil Kapoor’s daughter Sonam was so depressed after her break up with Ranbir that she went for a 2 months hideout.
But we would like to warn this emotional girl about Mr Kunal who has not only ditched Diya Mirza but also has an flirtatious history of dumping Raima Sen.
Being an emotional girl we would recommend Sonam to think twice before moving ahead in her relationship with this flirt natured guy.

I hope Deepika and Ranbir stay together says Kareena
Wednesday, June 4, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : "I've five film in various stages of production. Then I've nine endorsements for which I've to shoot ads round the year.
Plus I've all these stage shows that require rehearsals. I can't seem to find the time to do anything properly," she laments from Melbourne where she's shooting for Salman Khan's Main Aur Mrs Khanna.
She has in fact agreed to perform at IIFA in June and is rehearsing as she has never done. "I'm performing a medley of my songs from
Jab We Met and
Tashan. Gone are the days when I'd go on stage with just a little practice. Now I want to be my best in every stage performance."
But where's the time! "Here, at Melbourne I'm rehearsing for IIFA at nights and shooting in the day time. Am I over-worked? I'm exhausted. But what choice do I have? I've decided to take my live performances as seriously as my movies and endorsement,"she says.
She's currently Melbourne and will next move to Los Angeles for a long 40-day spell of shooting for Sajid Nadiadwala's Kambhakt Ishq
"I'll be away from home for more than three months at a stretch. I miss home. I miss my family. I've never been so much out of Mumbai. I'll finish shooting here, then head to perform at the IIFA.
In fact I'm working so hard I hardly get sleep. I'm shooting in the day time and I'm rehearsing during the night.I feel like a I haven't slept for ages."
She'll join Saif in London for a week in London from June 20. Saif will be shooting in the city for his first home production to be directed by Imtiaz Ali. Yup, the same film that Deepika Padukone is doing instead of Kareena.
And
Deepika Padukone is seeing Kareena's star-cousin Ranbir. "I'm so happy for them. I hope they'll be happy together. It feels so nice to have another Kapoor from my generation doing so well.
He was fantastic in Saawariya. He's here's to stay. I feel a sense of pride and belonging for him.The Kapoors and Khans are rocking the industry."
No hard feelings about not being in Saif's first home production?
"None at all," Bebo laughs. "I joked at the Stardust awards about not being in Saif's first production and everyone took it seriously.
Honestly I enjoy meeting him outside Mumbai. At least we can have some privacy. At home me and Saif can't even go out for dinner without people staring at us, constantly judging our behaviour..."

Bollywood Celebrates Mother's Day
Monday, May 12, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : What are the two factors that make up Bollywood?- Maa and Cine-ma. So Shashi Kapoor was indeed on strong ground when he said in Dewaar -Mere paas maa hai (I have my mother with me) if there were no filmy mothers around.
But we won't be discussing filmy moms…Rather we can hear about the moms who are behind many a Bollywood sensation.
Let's hear the daastan-e-maa (story of mother) from some of the biggest names of Bollywood
Ranbir Kapoor on Neetu Singh Kapoor: Mother's Day to me is an opportunity to keep on telling my mom how special she is to me. My mother gave me the freedom to take decisions when I was in Class V. She is so special!
Not only for me and my sister but for the entire family. She never interfered in my space. All she would say is that –Do whatever you want to. But just remember your origin, the royal blood in your veins. And that's more than enough for me to think and rethink before taking a decision.
Of course I will get her the cutest gift on Mother's Day. She is too figure conscious. So can't give her chocolates. I think she will be happy if I gift her a new gym.
Rekha on her mother Pushpavalli Ganeshan: My mother was, in fact is, my guardian angel. It's all because of her that I am in this industry. I still remember how every morning at 6 she dragged all of us to the temple in our house.
The fragrance of her mogras mixed with that of agarbattis, camphor and other flowers created a heaven for us-the fragrance still lingers every day when I pray at the temple in my bungalow Sea Springs. She was the best cook I have ever known.
The recipe of her upma and poha was famous among our friends and relatives. I never had to communicate with her verbally.
She looked at me and understood what I wish to say. Perhaps that's the reason why she passed away when I was shooting abroad because she knew how my heart bled every time I saw her wriggling in pain at the hospital.
Honestly speaking, I don't miss her because I never forget her. Even today I can literally feel the warmth of the godi (lap)-the best bed to rest on. Oh, I don't believe in the concept of Mother's Day and yet believe in it.
I think every day in the year is Mother's Day. Just as you can't confine the sky in a bottle, you can't confine Mother's Day within 24hours."
Hrithik Roshan on Pinky Roshan: My mother is the Bourn vita of our family-her sheer presence makes all the difference to our lives. Mother's Day this year is even more special with two mothers in our family-my mother and the mother of my two kids, Suzzane.
Generally it's Suzzane who take scare of all the arrangements for a celebration. But since this day is meant for my mom and her, so I guess the males have to tie up their aprons to please the ladies of the family.
Esha Deol on Hema Malini: Whenever I think of perfection I think of my mom. Every day she surprises me with a new dimension in her character.
She grows intellectually every day. I can never look or dance or act so beautifully like her. It won't be wrong if I say I live Mother's Day every day with my mother.
Well, even after all the free-flow of emotions, if your dil maange more, then grab a DVD of the film Mother India and watch it this Mother's Day (the latest buzz is, DVD-wallahs are giving a compilation of Nirupa "Mother of Bollywood" Roy's films for the early birds)

Bollywood Gossip - Ranbir to perform on Bachna Ae Haseeno
Monday, May 5, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : By now its common knowledge that Ranbir Kapoor's next release
Bachna Ae Haseeno directed by Siddharth Raj Anand borrows its title from his father Rishi Kapoor's evergreen number from
Hum Kisise Kum Nahin. But now the latest heartthrob will even move his feet to a song called
Bachna Ae Haseeno for the film.
Choreographer Ahmed Khan who would be choreographing the Saawariya lad in this film says, “Yes, we are having a song called '
Bachna Ae Haseeno' and it will feature Ranbir along with the 3 girls- Bipasha, Deepika and Minissha. It will be mainly used as promotional number for the film. Since Rishi-ji's number is still a cult hit, they decided to have Ranbir also perform to a song which has similar lyrics. Vishal and Shekhar have composed the music for the song,” he adds.
So how has been the experience shooting with tinsel-town's latest pin-up boy, “It has been great. I shot a song with him in Mumbai at Yashraj studios. It's a commercial Indian song which we did. He is a brilliant dancer. In
Saawariya, baring a number or two, he didn't really get much of a chance to showcase his dancing skills but he has got that rhythm in his genes. His father and uncle Shammi-ji have all been brilliant dancers and even Ranbir has his own style. I would be going to Switzerland and Venice now to finish 3 songs for the film and after we return we would shoot the '
Bachna Ae Haseeno' number,” says the choreographer-turned-director.
We also asked Ahmed on the status of his next film
Paathshala, “The post-production is currently on. We would start the dubbing of the film sometime next month. We are planning a Children's Day release (Nov 14th) so we have ample amount of time on our hands”, he smiles.
Meanwhile Ahmed's wife Shaira Khan who turns producer with
Paathshala is already planning her next project, “Yes, her next film is about what goes on in a girl's heart. It is essentially a journey through a girl's heart and what do girls want from guys and all that stuff etc. The film is a light, fun film on the lines of Drew Barrymore, Meg Ryan, Adam Sandler's kind of flicks. The film would star one girl and three guys. We would be finalizing the names within a fortnight or so,” reveals Ahmed.
With choreographing, direction and now production, Ahmed surely has his hands full.

Bollywood Gossip - Multiplex say "NO" Tashan
Bollywood Gossips : Yash Raj Films' much-awaited action thriller
Tashan has opened in a select few cinema halls.
Multiplexes are waging a battle on who gets the most the distributor or the producer.
PVR Cinemas and Inox in Mumbai are not screening the film. In Delhi too mulitplexes like Adlabs and PVR have said a straight no.
"We had asked Inox, Fame and Adlabs multiplexes to give 60 per cent of the revenue collected in the first week.
Tashan is a film that will easily earn enough revenues for the multiplexes and us. I don't think the increase in revenue percentage is too high," said Sanjeev Kohli, CEO of Yash Raj Films.
Amitabh Vardhan, CEO, PVR Cinemas, said: "As of now we don't have the film. As far as the revenue sharing is concerned, I would not like to comment on that."
Arijit Dutta, a Kolkata-based exhibitor-distributor, is more forthright.
"I don't understand why we have to pay higher revenue when the business in Kolkata is 10 times less than other metros. This year revenue has been hiked by 12 percent here, whereas Mumbai and Delhi multiplexes were asked to pay only two per cent more," said Dutta.
Till Friday morning none of the parties had reached any agreement and the film has opened in only single screen theatres. Apart from them, the Waves and Spice multiplexes are having shows of the film.
The Krishna Acharya directed film starring Kareena, Saif, Akshay and Anil Kapoor is an edge of the seat thriller.

Bollywood Gossip - It's Bachchans vs. Kapoors vs. SRK
Right from the times of the patriarch Raj Kapoor, the Kapoor khandaan has always had a stronghold on the Filmfare awards ceremony. This time it was no different.
This year the Best Actress Award, Filmfare 2008 went to Kareena Kapoor; the Best Debutant's Award to Ranbir Kapoor and the Lifetime Achievement Award to Rishi Kapoor. Quite evidently, it was a complete Kapoor sweep once again.
Similar to the Kapoor Khandaan, another khandaan's hoping to make a sweep. Not at the Filmfare, but at IIFA - the rival awards show that has Amitabh Bachchan as the brand Ambassador.
The Abhishek-Aishwarya starrer
Guru is nominated here in almost every category. The other award staples include Yash Raj and Karan Johar's Dharma Productions.
These families represent Bollywood's traditional film families that have ruled the award ceremonies for years.
From Amitabh to Abhishek, Yash Johar to Karan Johar and Rishi to Ranbir, the stars may have changed, the filmmakers may have changed but the awards keep coming.
Critics of the system say, if you're part of the family, the trophy's yours. If not better luck next time.
According to Madhur Bhandarkar: ''I have got national Award for
Chandi Bar and
Page Three. But I was a little disappointed in the popular awards here. After getting a national award,
Page 3 was sidelined when it came to the popular awards. I didn't know why.''
As Madhur Bhandarkar puts it, the lines are clearly drawn - between who's in which camp and who's on who's side.
So if you're a Shah Rukh Khan, you host Filmfare but don't attend IIFA. And if you're a Bachchan that's the one award you don't miss.
All your friends and those you work with walk the red carpet with you, even hand out and receive awards. And sometimes even if you've got a great film lineage, you may at best get the critics award.
''The cliquism and the incestuousness stops talent. It's again quite the Arjun-Eklavya story, thousands of years after the Mahabharata. Only Arjun can'', says Sudhir Mishra.
According to film producer, Vipul Shah, ''Why is not a film actor or film producer allowed to promote his own family? Because that happens in every business. So why should an actor or director be restricted or be criticised for doing so. Because when a businessman hands over his multicrore empire to a son over a much more learned CEO, nobody makes an issue out of that.''
But of course there are exceptions to the rule. Powerful performers like Akshay Kumar and Shah Rukh Khan, who came from the outside and built their own families - giving hope to the majority of this industry that has no family backing them.
''See people tell me that you are from Shah Rukh Khan camp, you are from this camp...we all belong to one camp. That is cinema. I am groomed in Mahesh Bhatt's so-called camp. Then I joined Shah Rukh Khan. And I have worked with Shah Rukh Khan for almost 12 years. He is like my local guardian. During these last 12 years I never felt I belong to Shah Rukh Khan's camp. I am friendly with everybody'', says Vivek Sharma, director of
Bhoothnath.

Bollywood Gossip - Kareena's dream finally come true
Tuesday, April 22, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : It’s finally happening. Bollywood has put together the dream team of Kareena Kapoor and Aamir Khan for Raj Kumar Hirani’s film Idiots. Kareena, who has signed on three big projects lately, including Sajid Nadiadwala’s Kambakht Ishq with Akshay Kumar and Renzel d’Silva’s untitled film with beau Saif Ali Khan, is thrilled to be working with Aamir. “It’s a dream,” she exclaimed, “we recently came close to working on two films together, Vishal Bhardwaj’s Mr Mehta And Mrs Singh and Mani Ratnam’s Lajjo, but it’s finally happening now.”
She is also looking forward to doing another film with Saif after Omkara and Tashan. “Renzil’s film has a stunning script. And I’m doing something in it I’ve never done before,” she said, declining to elaborate. But she added, “It’s important to keep our personal and professional lives apart. Saif and I need to concentrate on our individual careers. There’s no marriage for me for the next five years.”
As for Tashan, she’s worked really hard on the film and is hoping her hard work pays, because “it wouldn’t hurt to have another hit after Jab We Met”. Right now, she is at peace with herself. She’s looking fab and feeling great. “People are saying I want to be like Victoria Beckham. I think the talk started when Saif got himself tattooed with my name. David Beckham had done the same for Victoria. But I’m proud of my sculpted body. Why should I want to be like anyone else? I look no different from the way I looked earlier. I guess I’m just happy in life, and that shows,” said Kareena.

Bollywood Gossip - I'm not wearing any Bikini says Bebo
Monday, April 7, 2008
Bollywood Gossip : Though
Kareena Kapoor is looking scorching hot in Tashan, you won't able to catch her her in bikini as reported earlier by many tabloids.
Says a souce from Yash Raj, "No doubt Kareena
will look hot in shorts too. The running promos have already proved that Kareena in her new make over is looking stunning."
In her recent interview,
Kareena too remarked on her bikini scene that she is not wearing any sexy attire in 'Tashan' and it is just a rumor. Though she agreed that her role is extremely glamorous as it was a requirement of her character.
She also added that her look will be a new trend for onscreen glam divas. So was that hyped scene another Yashraj promotional strategy?

Bollywood Gossip - Ranbir's Dad stuns Deepika!
Wednesday, March 26, 2008
It may take Rishi and Ranbir Kapoor some to find the right vehicle to showcase their mutual talent in a father-son combination.
But Ranbir's lady love
Deepika Padukone
already has that privilege. She will be sharing screen space with Rishi Kapoor in Saif Ali Khan's first production (yet untitled) which has Saif and Deepika in the lead.
Says Deepika, "I did a reading with Rishi Uncle for the film, and I was simply stunned. He's that good. Imtiaz's film will be a departure for me. I'm definitely looking forward to working with Saif. He's one of the best actors we've ever done."
But before that
Deepika is currently shooting for Nikhil Advani's Chandni Chowk To China with Akshay Kumar. "I've trained in martial arts for the film. And I enjoyed myself thoroughly. Because I'm athletic.
People see me as very ladylike and proper. But there's another, very tomboyish side of me which you'll see in Chandni Chowk To China."
Her first post-Om Shanti Om release would be Yashraj Films's Bachna Ae Haseenon where she has to share her boyfriend with two other leading ladies.
"Yes. But that's only for the screen no?" she quips. "It's Ranbir's film all the way. In my very first narration I was sure I wanted to do it. Siddharth Anand suggested I take some time to decide.
But I liked his honesty and I loved my bit in the script. Siddharth was honest enough to tell me there were three other girls with Ranbir in the film—now of course there're only two other girls.
As an actor it's important for me to be part of projects I believe in even if my role is comparatively small."
Deepika has also completed two ads for Pepsi with Ranbir. "Now that I'm doing feature films doing ads feels different.
Just when I'm getting used to a leisurely pace of working again in an ad everything has to be crammed into a few minutes. But ads are fun. They remind me of my beginning."
Coming back to the Kapoors Deepika exults, "I'm lucky enough to work with both Ranbir and Rishi Uncle. Now all I need is a film with Neetu Aunty to complete the picture."

Bollywood Gossip - BIPS loses brand to KARISMA
Wednesday, March 19, 2008
Bipasha Basu
Bipasha Basu who is known for her dusky beauty and sexy because of her past performances, lost on another front. First, she was signed as a brand ambassador by a jewelery brand. Later, the company had second thought that she did not fit the bill because of her dusky complexion and, therefore, did not represent the image of a 'family woman'. So, the brand replaced her with Karisma. The latter is out of the movies but busy in endorsements, presumably due to her relatively white skin. Not only that the company had the gut to inform Bips that she has been replaced by Karisma. This has hurt many a model and actress and of course Bipasha. Would Bipasha's fans take up their heroine's cause with the jewelry brand for their "unfair" decision.

Bollywood Gossips - I Love You too, Deepika declares to Ranbir
Friday, February 29, 2008
Bollywood Gossips - The backstage of the53rd Annual Filmfare went on fire suddenly, when eavesdroppers heard the stunning Deepika Padukone softly declare “I Love You” to Ranbir Kapoor.
This bit of news was thousand times
spicier than what was happening on stage. The eavesdroppers blessed their luck on witnessing the soft romance between the “oh so in love” couple. Looking deep in her eyes, Ranbir first confessed his love by saying, "I love you", and then Deepika responded shyly.
Reports say that after the romantic declaration, the lovey-dovey couple left for Farah Khan’s party, where they were seen holding hands and even kissing.
Earlier, Ranbir had refuted the entire romantic link-up between him and Deepika by stating that, "We have been friends. Then she was busy with her first film`s release and I was busy with mine. Recently we were shooting in Australia and became friendly again. She`s an amazing, caring girl. I enjoy spending time with her."
Sources say that cupid struck during the shoot for Siddharth Anand’s film in Australia. Since then, they’ve been pretty much together and have often been seen in public. The duo was recently seen in a highly entertaining advertisement, which also features SRK as Deepika’s brother.
It seems that our worthy cricketers (read Yuvraj and Dhoni) have been stumped in favour of “Saawariya” Ranbir. Never mind guys, better luck next time!

Bollywood Gossip - Karishma back to Bollywood?
Monday, February 18, 2008
Mumbai 18th Feb, 2008: She came, she mingled, she vanished. Bollywood star Karisma
Kapoor made a fleeting appearance on Saturday to campaign for better immunity for Mumbai residents, and it seemed only appropriate on this occasion to urge her to share her own health tips.
"I eat every thing and I am not choosy-that is the secret of my health. If our immunity is strong then we won't fall ill or suffer stress," she said.

That hourglass figure, the peaches-and-cream complexion very much in place, it's a shame she doesn't seem to want to return to the movies. Clearing the air on that, Karisma said a return to the studios is imminent. But not just yet.
"Every body asks me when I am returning to films. I have been getting a lot of offers and there are lot of scripts coming my way. When I feel I can leave my baby, home, husband and get back to the studio then I will surely do a film," she said.
Until she gets back to the song and dance routine though, she seems content tasting the joys that motherhood and domestic life have to offer.

Bollywood Gossip - No Entry for Bipasha in sequel
Sunday, February 17, 2008
Bollywood Gossips - Boney Kapoor is all set to start his No Entry sequel this year finally. “The film will be called No Entry Mein Entry. We are currently working on its script. And will soon start the project”, confirms Boney Kapoor
The original blockbuster directed by Anees Bazmee had an ensemble starcast of Bollywood Actors Salman Khan, Fardeen Khan, Anil Kapoor, Lara Dutta, Esha Deol, Celina Jaitley and Bipasha Basu in lead roles. Will the same cast be repeated in the sequel? “Well, more or less it will have the same star cast”, says Boney. When we prod him more he adds, “Salman will surely be there. So will be others, except Bipasha Basu”.
But why is only Bollywood Actress Bipasha being left out? Does it have anything to do with Bollywood Actor Salman Khan who shares cold vibes with John Abraham? Rumours say Actor Salman doesn’t want to work with John’s girlfriend Bipasha now.
Is that the reason, we ask Boney? “No it’s not true. Bipasha is not cast in the sequel because her chapter was closed in No Entry itself. We are working on a new story and once we are done with that we will be able to announce the final star cast”, clarifies the producer.
Meanwhile, Bollywood Actress Bipasha Basu seems to be unaware about the sequel and has no idea why she hasn’t been approached for No Entry Mein Entry.

Bollywood Gossip - Deepika’s beau trouble?
Its confirmed, at least for this week, Deepika Padukone’s boyfriend is Ranbir Kapoor. Rumours linking her and her various men change faster than box office collections on a Monday morning.
Last week, we heard that Deepika is back to her old boyfriend Nihar Pandya! However, we say Deepika and Ranbir are very much together and are enjoying each other’s company. The romance that flourished in hot, sunny Australia on the sets of Siddharth Anand’s next for Yash Raj is only getting more intimate here, in Amchi Mumbai!
Ranbir and Deepika have also recently shot for a Pepsi commercial with Shah Rukh Khan. People present on the set inform us that Ranbir and Deepika were very much comfortable together. In fact they enjoyed the shoot and loved spending quality time with each other. That’s not all, the couple were also spotted chatting and exchanging sweet nothings at a suburban coffee shop in Mumbai! And it was a really long coffee break as it spilled over to four hours.
It can be recalled that Deepika has chosen to keep mum about her affairs whenever asked. Whether it’s Nihar, Ranbir or Yuvraj Singh, this OSO girl has been linked up many times but more than explaining her side she has preferred to be silent!
But now we realize that her dimpled smile is speaking much more than her ...

Bollywood Gossips - Saif denies nikaah with Kareena
Saturday, February 9, 2008
Bollywood Gossips - A Mumbai tabloid had reported that Bollywood Actor Saif Ali Khan and Bollywood Actress Kareena Kapoor have married,
and a nikah ceremony was held at Saif's residence on 6th of February, 2008 Wednessday but that Saif Ali Khan himself has denied this as a bollywood rumour.
CNN-IBN's Rohit Khilnani gets us the word from the horse's mouth
Rohit Khilnani: Saif Ali Khan a newspaper got you married so was that news for you?
Saif Ali Khan: Yes, it was news for me and I would just like to clarify that I was smiling about it earlier but these kind of rumours are quite disturbing particularly for our families. I don't like some of the things that have been written. As it is, it has been disturbing that things have been written about us constantly and we don't like being in the press everyday for every small thing, but I suppose it is their territory.
However, when they bring families into it and start writing things like that, it is really disturbing and annoying. I would just like to clarify that we are not married, not engaged neither living together. We are right now both focusing on our careers as that is the most important thing in our lives.
Rohit Khilnani: So the whole thing about the ceremony and that some astrologer spoke to the paper was wrong.
Saif Ali Khan: I have spoken to the astrologer as well and he has strongly denied it. He says that words have been put into his mouth. I just heard him on TV and I think that he is enjoying a little bit of publicity, which I really don't blame him for. But he has made it quite clear that there has been marriage or engagement.
Rohit Khilnani: So when the two of you decide to get married then you will come out in the open.
Saif Ali Khan: We will definitely come out in the open and I look forward to that day. I am extremely committed and we are both very mush happy together. I would please like to request the press to give us a little bit of break and as it does get a little stressful for our families when things like this are written about us.
Rohit Khilnani: Best of luck, thank you very much.
Saif Ali Khan: Thank you.

Bollywood Gossip-Shahid pays tribute to Aamir ?
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Is that a Bollywood News, Gossip or Scoop ??
Seems like Bollywood Actor Shahid Kapur / Kapoor pays tribute to his favourite actor Aamir Khan by playing a
teacher who helps a group of troubled young students in his new movie
Paathshaala.
The similarities between Bollywood film Taare Zameen Par and this film are striking.
Choreographer-turned-producer and Shahid's close friend Ahmed Khan doesn't deny the fact that Taare Zameen Par has made a huge difference to the way we look at movie entertainment and at the parent-child relationship.
'I would happily admit that Paathshaala is inspired by Taare Zameen Par, except for the fact that 'Paathshala' was conceived and written a year ago. It's about a sensitive teacher's interaction with a group of kids,' said Ahmed.
Shahid Kapoor [ Exclusive Photo Gallery ]
'I've signed some really talented kids like Sweeney Khare from Bollywood movies Cheeni Kum, Ali Haji from Fanaa and Dwij Yadav from Nanhe Jaisalmer. We're really fortunate to suddenly have so many talented kids in our cinema. So why not put them to creative use? It's about time we addressed issues regarding children in a serious but entertaining way,' said Ahmed.
Interestingly, Ahmed has selected some of the most extraordinary child actors to come into the film industry in the last couple of years.
'And on top of that, let's not forget I was once a child actor myself,' laughed Ahmed who played a child in Mr India.
'Shahid too was a child actor. So we're all putting our minds into making a film about the mind of a child and the child within the man.'
Ahmed has directed two films, Lakeer and Fool N Final. However, Bollywood film Paathshala is being directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali's assistant Milind Ukey.
Shahid Kapoor [ Exclusive Photo Gallery ]
About Fool N Final, Ahmed said: 'Please don't blame me. Blame the producer. For the first time in Paathshaala, I'm doing a film straight from my heart.'
The set representing the school where 'teacher' Bollywood Actor Shahid does an Aamir has been erected in Film City.
'We even have a basketball court as part of the school set,' said Ahmed proudly.

Bollywood Gossip-Deepika, Sonam disqualified!
Monday, February 4, 2008
While the bollywood film industry is abuzz with bollywood rumours of VJ Bruna being cast
opposite Bollywood Actor
Hrithik Roshan in his next, the film's director Anurag Basu is only too amused. Not only does he deny the reports, he maintains that even Bollywood Actress
Sonam Kapoor and
Deepika Padukone do not fit the bill.
When asked to clear the air, Anurag Basu said, "I am still searching for a girl. In fact, we have been auditioning really hard for a perfect girl. I don't understand how Bruna's name cropped up considering that I have definitely not signed her yet and she is not the only girl to have auditioned!" So what exactly is he looking for in his heroine? "The film requires a Spanish speaking girl who can dance well," said Anurag Basu. "That's the reason why we are having so much of difficulty in finding the right girl," he added. Then what about the reports that Anurag had also approached the current sweethearts of the industry -
Sonam Kapoor and
Deepika Padukone?
Anurag rubbished the claims saying, "As I said I am looking for a girl who speaks Spanish, they immediately disqualify." Interestingly, amidst this entire hullabaloo, a source very close to Bruna still holds by the claim that she has actually been signed up and they are maintaining a low profile as of now.
"She has been signed, but probably has been asked not to talk about it as yet," said a source. Waits to be seen who will finally win the race to be
Hrithik's arm candy in this one.

Friday, February 1, 2008
Kareena has been flashing a huge diamond ring on her hand for a while now which led to the speculation of her marriage with Saif Ali Khan. Obviously the love smitten couple gave enough fodder to the gossipmongers over the weekend.
Kareena, unlike Saif, had been keeping mum about the affection she felt for him, finally decided to put a full stop on wild gossip of her marrying the star.
Ending weeks of speculations of her marrying Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor said that wedding bells can wait for 5 to 6 years, she is not in a hurry for any decision.
“Shaadi mein to abhi 5-6 saal hain" said Bebo told media persons today.
The actress, who was earlier involved with Shahid Kapoor, has however made no secrets of her relationship with Chote Nawab.
The love that blossomed on the sets of their upcoming film ‘Tashan’ matured into an affair to watch out for when the Prince of Pataudi decided to wear his heart on his sleeve. The famous tattoo "Kareena" on Saif’s arm was followed by a dazzling diamond ring on Bebo’s ring finger, sparking rumours that the two were engaged.
Our sources tell us that it is her mother Babita, who is holding Kareena back from making any commitments.
For Saif, its his third serious affair after ex-wife Amrita Singh and Italian girlfriend Rozza Catalano.

Bollywood Gossip - Kareena Kapoor thrown out
Friday, January 25, 2008
If the rumors in the industry circles are to be believed, despite here resounding success during 2007, especially ‘Jab We Met’, and hiked performance price, Kareena Kapoor has been dropped from director Imtiaz Ali’s next film.
Rejecting Kareena for a role in his film, Imtiyaz Ali has chosen the currently hot Bollywood glamour girl Deepika Padukone for the film.
Worse still, in a recent interview, director Imtiyz Ali has told a magazine that he had taken Kareena Kapoor for ‘Jab We Met’ even without liking the actress’ acting qualities and he stressed that Kareena is not a good actress at all.
Incidentally, Imtiaz Ali, who was the director of ‘Jab We Met’, has even ignored the recommendations of Saif Ali Khan the hero of his next untitled film, and rejected his girlfriend Kareena Kapoor to opt for Deepika Padukone.
More interestingly, Saif Ali Khan is not only the hero of the film, but it is going to be Saif's first film production!
Sources said that Saif Ali Khan had recommended Kareena Kapoor for their new film, but the director rejected Saif’s pleas.
Going by the standards in Bollywood, this is something significant as normally the directors seldom have the guts to ignore the requests of the hero and more so when he is also the producer of the movie.
But many here would want to know if the director would have the same guts to reject a request either by Shah Rukh Khan or Aameer Khan!

Shahid steals Saif's ex-girlfriend
Monday, January 21, 2008
Bollywood Gossips - Bollywood Actor
Shahid Kapoor is so over Bollywood Actress
Kareena Kapoor. Reams are being written about the potential girls who can fill the void in Shahid's life. So who is the new girl... Amrita, Sania Mirza or
Vidya Balan?
Sorry to disappoint you, but none of the above. Instead, we saw him with Rozza Katallano,
Saif Ali Khan's ex- girlfriend, at a coffee shop of a suburban five-star where the two were engaged in a deep conversation.
This is not the first time that Bollywood Actor Shahid was spotted spending time with the Italian model Rozza. It may be recalled that Shahid had chosen to ignore the rumours of Bebo's closeness with Saif, but later, Rozza was the one who confirmed that it was indeed true.
Consequently, Shahid and Rozza became very good friends and have been constantly in touch with each other.
Ask Shahid if he is ready to mingle again and he tells, "Yes, I’m also hearing all these stories about me. Sometime, I’m caught watching movie with Bollywood Actress Amrita or having coffee with someone. I think, I will have to get a girl friend very soon."
So is he ready to fall in love again? "Absolutely," he gushes and adds, "It’s a lovely feeling to be loved cared by someone. I’m sure something will happen soon, I can sense it. I will find love again.

Kareena my true love-Saif
Sunday, January 20, 2008
Chhote Nawab has finally come out in open and accepted that he is 'extremely and completely committed' to Kareena Kapoor and would like to spend the rest of his life with her.
Saif, who has just wound up filming for Kunal Kohli's next in Bangkok, is very confident about his relationship with Kareena.
"I'm extremely and completely committed. I've found true love and I'd like people to respect that as much as I do," he said.
Kareena is known to be volatile and both she and Khan come with a baggage of failed past relationships, but Saif dismissed concerns that could impact his current relationship with Kareena.
"A lot of people say a lot of things. She's the most wonderful person I know," he says.
Kareena started dating Shahid Kapoor in 2004. The two are believed to have split in August while Shahid was away in Toronto filming for Aziz Mirza's next.
Kareena and Saif acknowledged being an item in October at the grand finale of the Lakme Fashion Week.
Saif married actress Amrita Singh in October 1991 but the couple divorced after 13 years of marriage and two children in 2004.
Following his divorce Saif dated Italian Rosa Catalino but the two broke up in 2007.
The 37-year-old Saif is now all set to take his relationship with 27-year-old Kareena to the next level and commit to a life together.
Kareena and Khan co-star in Yash Raj Films' forthcoming Tashan and became close during its filming earlier this year.
When tabloids first reported their romantic linkup Kareena, who was still in a publicly acknowledged relationship with Shahid Kapoor, denied the reports contending Saif was just a friends.
Later, when she broke up with Shahid it appeared she had dumped him for Saif.
Saif implicitly acknowledged the problem.
"We do live our lives in the public glare. We're open to people passing judgment on us. I've no problem with that," he says.
Saif completed filming for Kunal Kholi's next in Bangkok five days ahead of schedule and he is taking advantage of that by holidaying in Hong Kong, accompanied by daughter Sarah, son Ebrahim and new found love Kareena.

Anil says no to starring with daughter Sonam
Tuesday, January 15, 2008
Actor Anil Kapoor is the latest to join the list of Bollywood parents who are wary of being seen with their star children when the children make their screen debut.
Anil has turned down a chance to co-star with his daughter Sonam in her second film -Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's much talked-about 'Dilli 6'.
"It's true Rakeysh Mehra offered me a role in 'Dilli 6', but I declined it," Anil said.
"Who wouldn't want to work with Rakeysh after 'Rang De Basanti'? Sonam is lucky to be working with him in her second film after (working with) Sanjay Leela Bhansali."
For now, Anil has decided to stay away from offers to share screen space with his daughter.
"In fact, there have been 8 to 10 offers, but nothing that would tempt me into sharing space with her right away. Unless something really exceptional comes up, I wouldn't like to work with my daughter at the moment. In fact, she is opposed to it much more than I am. She feels even more strongly about it. So I'd rather wait."
He lights up at the mention of 'Saawariya'.
"The figures have come in straight from Sony Pictures in the US. And they're very heartening. I'd have been happier if the film had done better in India. But it has done well enough.
"Sonam has been appreciated unanimously. People like Amitabh Bachchan and Dilip Kumar have praised her. Sonam couldn't have hoped for a better debut. I'm very proud of my daughter. She has a long way to go. I think her second film is as exciting, if not more."
Added Sonam: "I've shot twice with my father and have done an AIDS feature. He was more worried about me than himself throughout the shoot. So, I don't think it's fair to him to have me as a co-star. Right now, I am too raw to remove my father from the character he'd play with me.
"Besides, I wouldn't want to play all and sundry characters with him. It has to be something special for both of us. But if he produces a film that has a role for both of us, I'd definitely want to do it because he produces only quality-conscious products."
In the past, Dimple Kapadia had said no to Bhansali's 'Khamoshi - The Musical' with daughter Twinkle.
Dharmendra agreed to play Sunny and Bobby Deol's father in 'Apne' after so many decades in the industry. Dharmendra played Sunny's dad in his second film 'Sunny', but they didn't have any scenes together.

Bollywood Gossips - Shahid Kapoor reveals all about painful break-up
Saturday, January 12, 2008
Mumbai: For the first time speaking directly about the pain he felt after his highly publicised break-up, Actor Shahid Kapoor explains exactly how difficult it was promoting his film at the time that his relationship was crumbling. CNN-IBN's Entertainment Editor Rajeev Masand spoke to the actor about the upside of success and the flip side of heartbreak in this exclusive interview.
Rajeev Masand: Your personal life and your break-up with your girlfriend was much in the spot- light around the time when Jab We Met was being released. So was it difficult for you to be fielding questions constantly about your personal life and the break-up at a time when you were already anxious about a new release?
Shahid Kapoor: Yes, it was a very trying period for me for almost a month, and it was very clearly a question for me of choosing between my personal feelings and my profession.
I had two choices, one was to come back and not talk at all, not go out in the press and not interact with the media— which would save me the pain of answering questions which I am uncomfortable about, or go out there and promote my film which was releasing in three weeks.
I chose to do the latter, because I think it was important for me as a hero to be there for my film and I had great faith in the film. So yes it was difficult and uncomfortable but I accepted that as a part of the way things work out here.

Kareena becomes 'saas-bahu' serial addict, Ektaa!
Thursday, January 10, 2008
While we thank you for taking the trouble of reading this news item (maybe due to our headline!), but please do not let your imagination run wild, as we do not mean what has brought you here.
Since we believe in straight and factual stories, and keeping the tradition alive, we are simply talking about the interesting character that
Kareena Kapoor plays in the sequel to Rohit Shetty's successful comedy flick, GOLMAAL - FUN UNLIMITED, aptly titled GOLMAAL RETURNS.
As per the top actress, who is on a high, following the commercial and critical success of JAB WE MET, she is essaying the role of Ajay Devgan's wife, in the sequel to GOLMAAL -FUN UNLIMITED and plays a 'saas-bahu' serial addict. She goes by the name of Ektaa in the movie. Quite a coincidence, isn't it? She also has the dubious distinction of being a suspicious ('shaqqi') wife, maybe due to the influence of the soaps in her daily life, like countless others!

Bollywood Gossip - Saif tattoos Kareena's name
Tuesday, January 8, 2008
He loves Kareena and wants to announce it to the world too. We hear that Saif has got Kareena's name tattooed in Devnagri on his arm at Hakim's Alim in Bandra.
Saif and Kareena left for Greece Friday, January 4, to savor the salubrious climate and food there before other crew members of Tashan catch up with them for a shooting schedule there.
Saif has apparently been planning to get the tattoo for last few months and has been browsing through various calligraphic styles to finalize the shape of the tattoo.
Last week, on Thursday, the actor finally took the decision and walked into Hakim's Alim in Bandra and sat for a two-three hour session to get Kareena’s name tattooed in Devnagari, an ancient Indian language.
The tattoo was reportedly done in indelible ink.

Saif and Kareena will holiday together for three days
Saturday, January 5, 2008
Bollywood Gossips : Kareena Kapoor had made a quick and discreet trip to Bangkok last month to meet Saif Ali Khan who was shooting there for Kunal Kohli’s upcoming film.
The couple left for Greece in the wee hours on Friday morning from Sahar International airport. However, the shooting begins only on Monday, January 7.
Saif and Kareena will holiday together for three days before they
start shooting for Tashan there. A friend of Kareena tells us, “They will get three days together without being disturbed. Their romance is at a different level now, and contrary to expectations, it is growing stronger by the day. Kareena also calls him Saifu, lovingly.”
Source adds, “The couple worked out their schedule cleverly so that they could spend quality time together in Athens before the hectic schedule of Tashan begins.”
While Kareena’s Bangkok visit in December, where the couple spent almost two days together, was a quiet affair, this time the couple was open and cool about their exit together from the Sahar International airport.
Arm and the manSaif Ali Khan is seeking inspiration from English footballer David Beckham’s famous Victoria tattoo. As a tribute to his three-month-old girlfriend Kareena Kapoor, the suave actor has now tattooed her name,
written in Devnagari, on his left forearm.
Saif, who has been working on the design of the tattoo for weeks, got inked on Thursday morning at Hakim’s Alim in Bandra. A reliable source close to the actor informs, “He has been toying with the idea of getting the Kareena tattoo for a while now. He has done some serious research on tattoo designs before zeroing down on this one. He just wanted a simple tattoo with not too many design elements.”
The tattoo artiste took almost two hours to complete the design and Saif was seen getting restless as he had to report to Yash Raj Studios for dance rehearsals. Later he was seen flaunting his newly-acquired tattoo but was not too keen to talk about it. A source from Yash Raj Studios, who did not want to be named, says, “Saif was very happy with his tattoo.
He was completely at ease with the attention it attracted.” However, Saif was seen making a conscious effort to hide the tattoo under a jacket when he reported at the Sahar international airport along with Kareena.

Vidya clears air about Shahid
As Vidya Balan turned a year older on New Year's day she brought in her birthday the way she liked best… in the company of her family.
She was In Delhi visiting her sister. Her parents joined the sisters. And Vidya had herself what she considers a perfect birthday.
"I've great faith in myself. I'm happy to get what
I do.Of course there're tough times. But God has brought me to them he'll take me through them. That's what keeps me going. Last year there were lessons to be learnt.
Professionally I've learnt to say no to projects I don't want to do. I'm no longer apologetic about voicing my opinion.I guess I've become more confident and therefore assertive. At times I didn't know how to say no to a filmmaker.
I'd wonder how they'd react to me rejecting their creativity. Now that painful process has become less difficult. If I say no to a project I don't see that as a rejection of an inividual's creativity. I just see the project as as being non-relatable with me."
In 2008 Vidya is looking at something different to do. "At the same time I want to have fun. My two releases in the first-half this year Halla Bol and Lucky Charm are very different from one another. For this year I've only signed a Bengali film so far.I like where I am."
She laughs her musical laughter when her Lucky Charm hero Shahid is mentioned. "I've been linked with practically every co-star I've worked with.
I get along famously with all of them. And I am single. So people are looking for masala to make my life and theirs, more interesting," she laughs heartily.
"Spice apart, I got along very well with Shahid during our schedule in Toronto. People just wanted to say there was more to our dosti than meet the eye. Honestly even I like to gossip. Most of us enjoy it.
Someone must have reported that we laughed a lot together on the set. It's like saying, 'If an actress gives a really good performance she must be having an affair with the director.'
Likewise if Shahid and I were having so much fun we must be a couple."
So what is Vidya's rapport with Shahid? "The way Aziz Uncle (director Aziz Mirza)'s team worked was very very friendly. Everyone in the unit went for dinner together.
All of us went for walks together. I guess the two of us were high-profile. So….But Shahid never shared confidences with me."
What about Vidya playing hostess to Shahid's screenings of Jab We Met?
Vidya groans loudly. "Oh God! I went to one screening of Jab We Met. Over there I met my Heyy Babyy writer Milap Jhaveri and had chai nashta with him.
The next day when reports of Shahid and me came out Milap wondered how this could be true when I wasn't anywhere near Shahid throughout the evening."

Saif has to wait for marriage : Kareena
Wednesday, December 12, 2007
Latest Bollywood Gossip - Kareena Kapoor says she keeps her work and love life separate.
Kapoor said in an interview published that work was her focus right now and marriage to her boyfriend and well-known actor Saif Ali Khan was a long way off.
"They are two different compartments,'' she said.
She has dreamed of marriage and children like most women, but said: "At this point I am too young to think about it. We will take each year as it comes, not each day as it comes.''
Kareena recently ended a three-year romance with Shahid Kapur , with whom she starred in the hit love story Jab We Met.
Kapoor also won praise from critics last year for "Omkara,'' a Bollywood adaptation of Shakespeare's "Othello.''
Kapoor said Khan was very supportive since he too worked hard to succeed in India's movie industry.
"I am highly ambitious. My strength, my confidence and everything else stems from my ability to work hard in my career which is the pivotal point of my life,'' she said. "It's beyond everything.''

Bollywood Gossip : Ranbir is Sonam's real life 'Saawariya'
Monday, December 10, 2007
The latest buzz doing the rounds is that Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor may be more than just reel life lovers. It is believed that the couple are dating each other seriously, post their debut in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's
Saawariya.
If the reports are true, then Ranbir is just following in the footsteps of his father Rishi Kapoor, who fell head over heels in love with his first heroine Dimple Kapadia following their debut film Bobby. So it could be a case of history repeating itself.
There was a huge buildup to the release of Saawariya, what with Rishi and Neetu Kapoor's son teaming up with Anil Kapoor's daughter. The curiosity factor was high and the young couple got a lot of attention.
According to sources, the romance started during the making of the film, as both were single. Although Ranbir is reported to have had a fling with Deepika Padukone, it was short-lived.
Apparently the two have continued dating each other even after the film's release. But it is believed that both sets of parents have asked them to be discreet about their relationship as they are afraid that it may adversely affect their careers.

Ranbir to change phone number
Monday, November 12, 2007
Ranbir Kapoor is flying high with the rave reviews he has got for his debut performance in Saawariya. So inundated has the actor been with calls and messages that he has had to change his phone number.
A close family member of Ranbir said, "The volume of calls and messages since the promotional clippings went on TV to the time of the film's release has gone up so much that poor Ranbir had no choice but to change his number.
"I really didn't want to do that," confessed Ranbir, "I love all the attention. I like being complimented for my performance. I feel I'm not getting enough."
And that is not all. Within 12 hours of the premiere of
Saawariya, four major filmmakers offered him the lead role in their next film.
He starts shooting for Yashraj Films' next project, to be directed by Siddharth Anand, from Nov 24.
"But what I am really crossing my fingers for is another film with Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He just has to say when and I am on. He has taught me everything I know about acting," said the grateful protégé.
Apparently Roberto Benigni in Life Is Beautiful inspired Ranbir's character of the street-smart do-gooder who would do anything to win over the sullen, searching girl.
"Sanjay sir saw me like a human version of a poodle, out to please the one I love at any cost. I sing, dance, juggle, jiggle, waltz, tap-dance, jump puddles, climb up pipes...any and everything for Sonam's character, just like Roberto Benigni in Life Is Beautiful.
"She, on the other hand, remains blissfully unimpressed most of the time. And the more withdrawn she becomes, the harder I try to please her," said Ranbir.
His co-star Sonam Kapoor isn't lagging behind either. Her classic looks are being compared with Waheeda Rehman and Rekha.
Said Priyanka Chopra: "I've known Sonam for a long time. She's a friend. And I like her father (Anil Kapoor) from the time we worked in Salaam-e-Ishq. She's such a beautiful girl with a great body.
"As for Ranbir, he's a complete scene-stealer. His performance is so warm and endearing, you just want to hug him. It's hard to believe this is his first film."

Saawariya premieres on November 7th.
Tuesday, November 6, 2007
November 9 is a big day in Bollywood for two reasons: Om Shanti Om and Saawariya.
Hey Wait!! There needs some change. In an unprecedented move, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Sony Pictures have decided to premiere their movie Saawariya on November 7 evening, which is two days ahead of its mega release on November 9.
Bollywood Movies are generally premiered 14 hours before its final release date because the producer and director try to avert any chance of negative publicity. However, in this case.. Sanjay seems to be very much confident about his movie and says that they dont care about any negative publicity.
Sony Pictures says with Diwali on November 9, people would be spending time offering pooja and meeting their near/ dear ones and he doesnt want to create inconvenience of the guests for the premier show.
Sony Pictures is believed to release 600 prints of the movie in India and about 900 more globally.
Here's some more on the film and its debutant hero Ranbir Kapoor. The towel dropping shot in the number Jab Se Tere Naina from the film has been dropped by the Censor Board. Bhansali is not complaining as the shot obstructs or disturbs the flow of his creativity. The director was offered the choice of keeping the nude shot with an Adults Only certificate. But the filmmaker did not want to lose an extremely large and crucial portion of the potential audience for that one shot.

"I Love Kareena" says Saif Ali Khan
Thursday, October 18, 2007
Its been a few days since bollywood actress kareena kapoor's breakup with her boyfriend Shahid Kapoor became the most wanted news headlines in Bollywood.
Kareena is back at the bollywood news headlines again with her new relationship with bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan.
"I love Kareena". These were the words which Saif Ali Khan seems to have said when he was being asked about his relationship with bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor.
Kareena Kapoor whose breakup news with actor Shahid Kapoor came a few days earlier is now in love with the Chote Nawab Saif Ali Khan. It can be termed as a news or a gossip, but both of them have been living quite close to each other during the past few months.
Kareena Kapoor seems to be quite busy these days decorating her new appartment in Khar where she shifted recently and is being helped by Saif who has shifted from his Andheri apartment to a Fortune Heights in Bandra, which is a 10 mins distance from Kareena's place.
It seems that both the actors are trying to spend much time among themselves though they havent yet confirmed any relationship they have among each other.
On the other hand, Shahid Kapoor was spotted in a Garbha Dance programme in Ahmedabad where he was accompanied with his personal security along with a strong police guard. The actor went to the stage and wished the crowd a Happy Navratri and went away with a tensed face today.

The Next Super Star of Bollywood - Ranbir Kapoor
Sunday, September 23, 2007
Ranbir Kapoor , the son of Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, is the latest Bollywood entrant from the famous Kapoor clan.
What better way to start one’s acting career than with a Sanjay Leela Bhansali movie? Yes, Ranbir has got a dream start to his Bollywood career. He will make his debut in Bhansali’s project Saanvariya , which also introduces Anil Kapoor’s daughter Sonam Kapoor .
Even as Ranbir is still busy shooting for his first movie, talks have begun to cast him in more projects. His dad, Rishi Kapoor, is looking forward to revive RK Films banner with a movie starring Ranbir in the lead role.
Rishi has already made a request to Rajkumar Hirani ( Lage Raho Munnabhai director) to direct a film for RK Banner. While Hirani has declined to make the film, he has agreed to cast the 24-year-old Ranbir in his next movie which will not be a Munnabhai series.
The film, yet untitled, will be Hirani’s take on the present day education system. It will be about striving to be successful, and how the joy of learning is gone in modern education.
Hirani is presently working on the first draft of the film’s script with Abhijat Joshi. The project will go on the floors in the first quarter of 2007.
On a different front, talks are on to rope in Ranbir and Sonam for the lead roles in the sequel to the yesteryear’s hit ‘Mr. India’.
The sequel will be directed by Nikhil Advani, the director of Kal Ho Na Ho . The film might also mark the comeback of Sridevi and Anil Kapoor .
However, the cast is still to be finalized.
In the meantime, Ranbir continues to grab headlines, partly because of his good looks and partly because of the compliments that keep coming intermittently from Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

Celebrity couples - will they tie the knot?
Saturday, September 22, 2007
Will these celeb couple tie the knot?
Kareena and Shahid:
Kareena Kapoor is number 3 and
Shahid Kapur is number 7. This relationship is an extremely volatile one. But the attractions are extremely strong. In the relationship of 3 and 7, the bondings are very strong but a small spark of misunderstanding can ruin it totally. Kareena Kapoor may take an abrupt desicion to get married. The problem is not marriage, but what will happen after marriage, because Shahid Kapoor may be a different person from what he is now and there are chances of problems to creep up.
