Ash is the most beautiful woman: Abhishek Bachchan

By Subhash K Jha

Abhishek Bachchan who turns 32 on Feb 5 has much to look forward to. 2008 is a significant year for Abhishek. He starts the year with Ram Gopal Varma's 'family saga' Sarkar Raj, goes on to the f-x caper Drona and ends with the mellow Dilli 6.

At home there's much happiness as wife Aishwarya's career too balances itself out neatly with her domestic responsibilities.

How does it feel to be 32?
Thanks you for remind me. I don't get bogged down by age. I'm just happy to be where I am.

So tell me, where have you been hiding yourself?
Nowhere! Just been shooting out of Mumbai in Jaipur for my friend Rakeysh Mehra's Dilli 6 in freezing winter. But the warmth of our unit just makes you forget the weather conditions. I'm lucky to be working with friends constantly.

But why have you been lying low?
It isn't a conscious decision. Unfortunately such is the nature of our career that we interact with the media only at an event or when a release is around the corner.

Otherwise we tend to get caught up in the shootings. I've been traveling extensively during the past few months and had no time for anything but work and immediate family.

Aishwarya looks like a true royal princess in Jodha-Akbar?
Most definitely! I married her. And I think she's the most beautiful woman on earth.

2008 is professionally special for both you and Aishwarya…
Yes she has Jodha-Akbar coming up. I've seen the film's trailer and heard the music. I love it! It's so wonderful to hear such sublime sounds. And I'm not saying this because my wife is in it or because a very dear friend of mine Duggu (Hrithik) co-stars with her. I do hope for their sake thar Jodha-Akbar does well.

Do you and Aishwarya discuss one another's work?
Oh yes. Most definitely I'm always very keen to know her reactions to my assignments and projects. She has very keen insight. She's a wonderful sounding-board.

Does she take your advice on what roles to do?
Oh most certainly. When she was in two minds about doing Pink Panther because my grandmother was ailing and this film required her to be out of the country for two months, I encouraged her to do the film.

It was a wonderful opportunity for her to work with some great actors. I take Aishwarya's advice just as I take my parents' advice. They're some great actors in the house and I do seek their advice.

Are there lots of film discussions at home?
We're very good at leaving our work behind. After a point we don't discuss work at all. We like to keep aside our work and just talk about other things.

You also figured in Tare Zameen Par…
Yes in the list of dyslexic people, I got a very nice mention from Aamir. He had approached me when I was shooting for Guru asking if I could be part of the film. I happen to be a spokesperson for dyslexia.

When Aamir explained what kind of a film he was making I was very happy to lend my support in every way. Aamir has handled the subject very well.

Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini

Bollywood Actress Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini In Dil Bole Hadippa Believe it or not, but the whole ‘bikini top ‘n’ skimpy shorts’ avatar in short — flaunting Rani Mukerji’s hot new bod wasn’t her idea. Not even the producer or director had anything to do with it. After she realised how much she had toned up (to play a male cricketer in Dil Bole Hadippa!), Rani just happened to discuss this idea with her designer friend Manish Malhotra. And from there on it was Manish’s game plan, after all, he’s transformed many a Bollywood girl in to glam queens. He suggested that it would be a pity to waste such a well-toned body by not showing it off. That’s how the idea of a special song was born. And is she looking hot? Talk about her ‘shapely’ success, and Rani says, “Believe me, I didn’t starve at all. I love my food, especially rice and sweets. There was no way I was giving up all that. So, I just worked out harder and was occasionally allowed my ‘cheat’ meals of rice, sweets, etc. ...

Shahid Kapoor: I'm waiting for someone special

Bollywood’s man with lightening in his feet, Shahid Kapoor seems pretty chilled out and unfazed by controversies in real life. In town to shoot for an untitled film opposite Anushka Sharma, Shahid seems very comfortable in his skin. While he’s reluctant to discuss about his private life or his rumoured amours with Priyanka Chopra, Vidya Balan and Sania Mirza, the teen heartthrob says he’s “learnt to take all the rumours with a pinch of salt” and claims he’s just a “regular” young guy after pack-up. Excerpts from an exclusive interview: Kaminey and Dil Bole Hadippa... are set to hit the screens. Yeah. Their release dates are pretty close to each other. Kaminey will hit the screens this month, while Dil Bole Hadippa is slated for a September release. Both are very different films and I’m excited as well as a little nervous. The levels of expectations increase after your previous films have done well at the BO. Jab We Met was a turning point in my career. After Vivaah, I sat home for six ...

Aamir Khan: I love Sachin Tendulkar's intensity

What is amazing about Sachin Tendulkar is that for 20 years he has been able to maintain a level. There has been no dip in his abilities, his application or his passion for the game. I would say very few people could last this long. I've played cricket and believe me, you can't get out of bed for one week after one gruelling match. I saw him for the first time in 1988 when I was shooting at the Brabourne Stadium and he wasn't playing for the Indian team yet. The team was practising at the nets and I was chatting with Kapil Dev, Dilip Vengsarkar and a few others. At a distance I could see this kid batting. I was surprised to see that he was middling the ball; he looked so small, and so young. I was zapped. I wondered who this little boy was, who was being allowed to practise at the nets with the Indian cricket team. So I asked Kapil and Vengsarkar, “Who's he? How come I don't know?” They told me he was a new guy called Sachin Tendulkar, who was being seriously consi...
