Minus RanDeep - tagged as Bollywood's current 'it' couple with their public lip-lock grabbing eye-balls recently, the rest of tinsel town is singing strains of separation. It's the season of spats for most of Bollywood. Right from the much publicised love stories of Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif, Harman Baweja-Priyanka Chopra and Saif Ali Khan-Kareena Kapoor to the hush-hush liaisons of Shilpa Shetty-Raj Kundra and Soha Ali Khan-Siddharth - most couples seem to be treading the path to splitsville. From Saif's much hyped tattoo, Katrina's visit to Ajmer Sharif to pray for beau Salman, Kareena playing mommy to Saif's kids, Abraham and Sara to Salman and Harman throwing surprise parties to woo their ladies...the tinselville dikkat seems to be pyaar kiya to darna kya! But, there's a flip side to the mushy business too. Like their much publicised romantic escapades, most Bollywood couples face the risk of highly talked about splits and spats. For instance, the whole world seemed to be privy to Saif openly asking Bebo to 'shut up' during an argument at a party thrown by film-maker Farhan Akhtar. Before the jilted lovers could patch-up, the world was aware of the trouble brewing in paradise. If that was Saifeena, Sallu and Kat are no less love enthusiasts. But just like Sallu's past affairs, even this one seems to be ending with a dhud! Steamy-hot love affairs in tinsel town are clearly running into rough weather. Unlike their older counterparts for whom both coming together and parting ways was an equally private affair, the new age love birds prefer blowing their trumpets aloud. Adman Prahlad Kakar says, "It was fashionable earlier to have a clandestine extra-marital affair, as most of the stars were married, so there was no point in declaring their affairs to the world. But today, if given a chance there would be a hidden camera even in a celebs' bedroom, so they have no choice but to reveal the dope about their affairs." Gal power Be it script writer Javed Akhtar walking out of his marriage to Honey Irani upon meeting Shabana Azmi, actor Rajesh Khanna asking for a divorce from Dimple Kapadia when he was going around with Tina Munim or ace director Ramesh Sippy marrying actress Kiron Joneja after parting ways with his first wife Geeta - it was always men in the industry who ended a relationship. Cut to the present - it's the leading babes calling it quits, not satisfied with a measly arm candy status. "They no longer want to be victims. Unlike the past when a divorced actress was looked upon as an, 'on sale to bed item,' these days the personal life of a heroine doesn't affect her star status. The perception of society has completely changed. So leading ladies prefer dumping a stale mate rather than sulking in a dead bond," adds Kakar. |
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. ...
