Bollywood-ishtyle entertainment

http://indiablogs.searchindia.com/images/bollywood-love-thief.jpg
The evening started with none other than Shah Rukh Khan telling the auditorium full of guests that dreams do come true... but first, you must dare to dream.

Alright, King Khan wasn’t there in person, but he was there nonetheless, larger than life on the big screen. And closely following his words were the producers of the mega-musical City of Dreams — the Morani brothers Mohomad and Ali, and Ashvin Gidwani — who dared to dream and on Friday, realised their dream of creating India’s first Bollywood musical.

With Mumbai being the protagonist here, along with Bollywood, it was no surprise to see the Bollywood-crazy Mumbaiites flock to the venue to catch three hours of OTT Bollywood-ishtyle entertainment.

Ishitaa Arun was there much too early, enjoying the pre-production buzz along with the producers. TV actress Narayani Shastri was backstage too, keeping her better half Gaurav Chopraa who stars in the musical, company. Anusha Dandekar made a style statement wearing a trendy hat; she and Rannvijay enjoyed the evening tremendously.

In the interval, one heard Marc Robinson sharing his views on the musical. Babita Malkani, Tejaswini Kolhapure and Asif Bhamla with his wife were among the others present. The starcast, Kashmera Shah, Lucky Morani, Gaurav Chopraa, Shipra Singh, Mandar Chandwadkar and Anand Tiwari sure made it a dream-like evening for all present.

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...
