John Abraham's clothes to go international

Model-turned-actor John Abraham's sartorial aspirations seem to have captured the business pulse. His label that hit the stores last year is all set to go international.

Revealing his apparel expansion plans, John said, "Last year we put out exclusive clothes with my brand name into selected outlets in seven cities of India. We gradually created an artificial scarcity for brand. It seems to have worked."

Apparently, fans can't get enough of the Garam Masala star's sartorial line-up, John Abraham apparel, for men and women.

"They're very aspirational clothes and priced likewise. We targeted them for people between the age of 16 and 24. But the core group of buyers for my clothes is between 16 and 40 years," John told IANS.

"In 2008, we're taking my clothes to countries like the US and the UK. The exclusivity factor remains foremost. Even if someone goes to buy John Abraham apparel in the biggest department store in New York, he or she will have a problem getting it. It is not easy reaching out to me. I never want any aspect of my life to be taken for granted. And that goes for my career as well," said the actor, who has only two films lined up in 2008. Sriram Raghavan's untitled venture produced by Rohan Sippy and Karan Johar's film to be directed by Tarun Mansukhani.

"Coincidentally, I will work with Aishwarya Rai in the first and Abhishek in the second. And both are untitled films so far. Maybe we can call them the John Abraham specials," he joked.

John also goes seriously international in 2008 with Deepa Mehta's Luna.

"I already have the name for it - for foreigners, John Abraham is far less difficult to pronounce than Bipasha Basu," he laughed.

Vivek Oberoi: I am a Tamilian

  Vivek Oberoi:-  I am a Tamilian Vivek Oberoi has said he has great affinity for Tamil Nadu Movies and that he makes sure that he visits his grand-parents in Chennai regularly. Vivek Oberoi in an interview to Tamil media earlier had said ‘Naanum Thamizhkarandhan’ (means ‘ I am also a Tamilian ’). Vivek Oberoi earned the good will of Tamil Nadu people when he adopted a Tamil Nadu village devastated by the killer Tsunami in 2004. Vivek’s next two big films have a solid Tamil connection. The immediate ‘ Prince ’ is being dubbed and released in Tamil on April 9. The following ‘ Raktha Charithra ’ by Ram Gopal Varma in which Suriya is also playing an important role is a multi lingual and that too will be released as a direct Tamil version. The most highlighting factor about these films is that Vivek Oberoi will speak Tamil himself for the dubbing. When Suriya and Vikram are learning Hindi for their Bollywood debuts, Vivek Oberoi comes to Kollywood already knowing Tamil. For More

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.
