And then Salman Khan hit the screen, propelling young actors and wannabe models to hit the gym. Years later Shah Rukh Khan flashed his six-pack in the Dard-e-Disco track from Om Shanti Om , inspiring the older lot to sweat it out.

With Abhishek Bachchan starrer ' Drona ' ready to hit the screen and nearly a dozen cinematic interpretations of mythological literature of ancient India under production, it seems Indian filmmakers have woken up to the magic of epics that have enough drama to outmatch all the Harry Potters and Aslans ('Narnia') put together. Described as a film rooted in the vibrant tapestry of Indian mythology, 'Drona' is a modern tale of one man's voyage through the labyrinths of mystic, myths and legendary legacies. Abhishek teams up with Priyanka Chopra in the film, directed by Goldie Behl. Way back in 1913, Dadasaheb Phalke's debut film 'Raja Harishchandra' had set the trend for mythological films in India. The use of mythological and theological characters, particularly gods and deities, was a norm earlier in the century. Though imageries faded over time, the influence of ancient mythology, religion and folklore continues to inspire nearly every s...

After he wowed the audience with a power packed performance in Sarkar Raj early this year, all eyes are now on Abhishek Bachchan ’s superhero act in Drona . Ever since the trailers of the movie went on air, Abhishek has been receiving positive reviews about his new look where he sports long hair, a stubble and stylish Sherwanis. As everyone awaits the release of the superhero flick, it’s but natural that Abhishek would be feeling the mixed emotions of nervousness and excitement. The actor is also disturbed by the recent bomb blasts in Delhi. Incidentally, the actor was in the capital on Saturday when the heinous incident took place and just a few minutes away from Connaught Place when a bomb blew off. The actor has been in a state of shock and amidst all this anxiety the one person whom Abhishek is dearly missing having by his side is wife Aishwarya. Aishwarya is busy shooting for Mani Shankar’s Robot in Brazil. The duo is certainly missing not being with each other a...

Many might be wondering about Hrithik Roshan ’s sudden disappearance but the actor is only busy with the schedule of his forthcoming flick, Kites , being shot in Las Vegas.

Rakesh Roshan, who is also in Las Vegas, decided to bring his family together and got Suzanne and the kids to fly down to the States. But, according to a unit hand, Papa Roshan had some other reason for uniting the family.

King Khan created excitement among his contemporaries with his six pack abs body at the age 42. He worked very hard to get it for the look of his character in Om Shanti Om . And just when his fans thought that he will flaunt his six pack abs in some more films, Shah Rukh is going for a lean look. Apparently Shah Rukh Khan ’s forthcoming films Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and My Name Is Khan do not require a macho man look. It is learnt that SRK has stopped his workout since the last few months. In Yash Raj’s forthcoming film RNBDJ he plays a young college going boy while in Karan Johar’s MNIK he will be seen as a NRI Muslim. And since he is required to look lean to suit his characters, King Khan will not flaunt his abs anymore.

SHE was not looking around to give that ‘Hey, do you know me?’ look and was taking little note of the ‘Look... there’s Isha Sharvani ’ whispers.

Many artists in the film industry will be there. ‘‘It was fun shooting for the film, because there was lot of young people around,’’ she added.And she is all thrilled about her dance sequence with Hrithik Roshan . ‘‘ Dancing with Hrithik is a bi...

Until a few years ago, our Bollywood actors didn't really find it necessary to stay in shape and flaunt well-toned & chiseled bodies. Couple of decades back, Sanjay Dutt and Sunny Deol started the trend of actors displaying their physique on screen. However, it was only after the arrival of Salman Khan that every young actor, wannabe models & actors started hitting the gym with a vengeance. However, the older lot of actors who were in their 40's still didn't find it mandatory to flaunt their bare bodies on screen. All this changed when Shah Rukh Khan decided to give the young actors a run for their money by working out and flaunting his six-pack in the '' Dard-e-Disco '' track in ' Om Shanti Om '. Soon six-pack became the buzzword and every actor (young or old) has been hitting the gym (some to stay in shape while others to flaunt their torso on screen). We bring you the best of bare-chested Bollywood hunks . Salman Khan It would not be...

After Deepika Padukone and Kareena Kapoor , Priyanka Chopra has been chosen as the third heroine to make a special appearance in Priyadarshan's Billoo Barber and shake a leg with Shah Rukh Khan . And Priyadarshan says it was a cakewalk for the superstar to get the leading ladies to do a cameo in his comedy. "Since Shah Rukh plays a filmstar in the movie, I needed him to do some big glamorous song and dance numbers with some top heroines. I left the choice to Shah Rukh. I knew all he had to do was to pick up the phone and ask any of his leading ladies," Priyadarshan said. According to sources, it was a tie between Rani Mukerji and Priyanka for the third item song with Shah Rukh Khan in Billoo Barber . "But after Rani appeared on Salman Khan 's game show Dus Ka Dum and knowing there's no love lost between Salman and Priyanka , the scales tilted automatically towards Priyanka," an industry source said. Though King Khan has done item numbers earlier i...

After Shah Rukh, Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Salman Khan and of course Amitabh Bachchan having hosted shows, it’s now Abhishek’s turn. Bachchan Jr. will host a show ‘ Big B’s Den ’ on NDTV Imagine , where he’ll chat up dad Amitabh. While Abhishek was all set to host a show…a chat show with dad Bachchan in the hot seat, he ended up learning a thing or two from his legendary father. He grilled his ‘Pa’ with some unforgettable questions on the Unforgettable Tour. But when it was time for a commercial break, it was pa B’s turn to do some grilling, especially since Beta Bachchan wasn’t too sure how to ‘break into a break’. Amitabh interrupted at this point and began to teach Abhishek the proper art and style of taking a commercial break. He said, “Hey, you don’t know the style of how to go on a break. You are conducting the program, na? I’ll show you how to do it. Just say, so ladies and gentlemen lot more yet to be disclosed. Don’t go anywhere and stay tuned. We’ll be rig...

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan will be shooting a film in London during the festival of Eid. Earlier this week, Salman flew to Paris to shoot Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s London Dreams . The movie co-stars Ajay Devgan and tells a tale of two musicians who want to make it big on the London music circuit. While Salman is expected to remain in the French capital for a week, he would later fly to London to continue the shoot. On the day of Eid ul-Fitr , when the holy month of Ramadan ends with a feast, Salman would not be in Mumbai. Rather, a few friends of the star would join him in London to celebrate the festival.

While on the sets of Hrithik Roshan starrer upcoming flick ‘ Kites ’, something very unusual happened. Hrithik’s father Rakesh Roshan was asked to leave the sets of his son’s movie! Sounds really outlandish, but the fact is true. It sounds more believable if the reason for this strange request by the director is taken in account. It so happened that Hrithik Roshan was shooting a very steamy scene with co-actor Barbara Mori . Just then Rakesh Roshan , who also happens to be the movie’s producer, arrived on the set. But director Anurag Basu felt that good sonny Hrithik might find it awkward doing the super-steamy scene before his dad. So he requested Rakesh to leave the sets till the hot scene was canned properly. Rakesh complied without any complaints. Of course, the steamier Hrithik looks and acts, the better money dad Rakesh will be able to make! And looking at the reports from the sets, if the ‘adult’ scenes survive censor-board’s scissors, there will be much eyeball-grabbing s...

The much-talked-about film Kites has hit the headlines again. Earlier it was hurricane Ike that stalled its shoot, now it’s a tiff. The tiff reportedly happened between the film’s producer Rakesh Roshan and its cinematographer Bobby Singh. During a shoot, Roshan had a row with Bobby Singh regarding a particular shot. Roshan was adamant to shoot that scene from a particular angle, to which Bobby was not agreeing. This made Rakesh furious and he reportedly yelled at Bobby in front of crew members. As a result, the cinematographer walked off the sets and out of the movie. Anurag Basu , the director of ‘ Kites ’, was roped in by Roshan senior after he liked his work in films like Gangster and Metro . Anurag had agreed to direct ‘ Kites ’ on his own terms and conditions. And he wanted to work with his own team, which includes Bobby Singh. Reports have it that right from the beginning Rakesh was interfering in Bobby’s work. Being a producer he doesn’t have much right, but he continued to i...

British-born actress Katrina Kaif has delivered six back-to-back hits, bagged several brand endorsements and is now a highly sought after heroine - all the qualities needed to be crowned the reigning actress in Bollywood , say film critics. "Katrina has immensely evolved as an actress. In Bollywood , actors are mostly known for the number of hits that they can deliver. Katrina has won in that respect hands down. She can undoubtedly be called a lucky mascot for her producers," popular film critic Taran Adarsh told IANS over phone from Mumbai. After wowing audiences in the recently released romantic comedy Singh Is Kinng opposite Akshay Kumar, Katrina has successfully displaced top-rung actors, including Kareena Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai and Priyanka Chopra . Her success story started with Namastey London and continued with Apne , Partner , Welcome , Race and now Singh Is Kinng . "Last year was simply fantastic and, touchwood, this year is the same.

Bollywood’s macho-man Salman Khan is all set to star in the most expensive Bollywood flick ever. The 100 crore musical in question will be produced by T- Series and will be directed by Anees Bazmi of ‘ Singh is Kinng ’ fame. According to reports, Salman will start shooting for the flick from August 2009. The movie is apparently a romantic comedy with a musical backdrop.

Arjun Rampal , who plays a Kolkatan filmmaker in Rituparno Ghosh's ' The Last Lear ', says he travelled incognito around the city in trams and buses to get into the skin of his character. Rampal said he was so moved by the storyline that he literally became Siddharth, the filmmaker, during the making of the movie that has superstar Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role. 'I was so touched by the storyline that even before Ghosh finished narrating the script I agreed to do the film. To get into the skin of my character - a Kolkatan filmmaker acquainted with the vibe of the city - I came here a few days before the shooting started. I wore a bandana so that no one could recognise me and travelled across the city in trams and buses and took photographs,' Arjun told IANS in an interview here. 'The Last Lear', according to the actor, is a wonderful example of commercial and parallel cinema co-existing in a single reel. 'I have never played anything like t...

Kareena Kapoor's glowing skin and svelte figure has millions of girls aspiring to be in her shoes. But Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor says it is her ' vegetarian ' diet that keeps her fit and glowing. 'Apart from doing yoga to keep myself fit, I am a pure vegetarian. I don't eat meat and that has helped me a lot to keep fit,' Kareena Kapoor told reporters here over the weekend. 'I am proud to be a vegetarian and I am against those who eat meat. Go green to be fit, that's the best way for me at least,' she added. Kareena had given up non-vegetarian food in 2006, that is two years after she started dating actor and former beau Shahid Kapur , a strict vegetarian himself. But even after her break-up with Shahid, the actress has continued to follow a vegetarian diet to keep her weight in check. In fact, in 2007, Kareena Kapoor had also won the ' Cutest Vegetarian ' online poll conducted by People for the Ethical Treatment of Anim...

All those who were waiting to have another glimpse of King Khan's envious six-packs , are in for a disappointment of sorts! Well, not exactly once we hear out what SRK has to say about his upcoming RAB NE BANA DI JODI . Speaking about his role and get up in the Aditya Chopra directed venture, RAB NE BANA DI JODI , opposite debutante Anushka Sharma, SRK reveals that he has not worked out for four months. And this was intentional as he did not want to show off his muscles, rather those famous six-pack 'Dard-E-Disco' abs of OM SHANTI OM . The actor discloses the reason behind the same and it is a very logical and an interesting one. He explains that the muscles were coming in the way of the character that he is playing in RAB NE BANA DI JODI . He essays the role of a very normal, regular person, quite unlike the flamboyant Om from his blockbuster hit of last year, the 87 crore OM SHANTI OM . As of today, the next offering from the DILWAL...

It took Ranbir Kapoor almost a year (after the commercial debacle of SAWAARIYA ) to prove his credentials at the box-office, with the hit BACHNA AE HASEENO . But, Imran Khan , nephew of Aamir Khan is luckier. Firstly, his debut vehicle the blockbuster, JAANE TU...YA JAANE NA made him an overnight sensation and secondly, he as well as the producers of his forthcoming venture, KIDNAP are now cashing in on his mind-blowing success, which was just around two months back. This is evident from the fact that all the hoardings as well as the posters (even the promotional track, 'Mit Jaaye') have Imran Khan all over. Even the lead actor, the much senior Sanjay Dutt has taken a back seat and is happily giving prominence to the emerging star, a habit with the humble superstar, Dutt. The trade and industry is waiting with bated breath to see the response of Imran Khan 's second film, KIDNAP . The three main reasons behind this eagerness is the fact that this time Imran Khan does ...

The season finale of 10 Ka Dum will go on air this weekend. As widely reported in the media, the two ravishing beauties, Lara Dutta and Rani Mukherjee will be present to lend glamour to the show. According to a reputed bi-monthly publication, the show finale (in order to take some mileage) will see a references to the infamous, though much (ill) publicized spat between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, with a question that goes something like this - What percentage of the masses think that the two actors can never be friends? The host of the show, Salman Khan even asks Rani (on the show itself) whether she has heard about the fight, to which Rani replies that she had! And Salman candidly answers back that whatever happened, happened for the best. Rani, who on her part is friendly to both the Khans (having worked with them in a number of hit films), then says that she loves them both and wants them to be friends again. To that Salman says that he used to love 'him' too but now t...

A Bollywood film that may sound a bit familiar to fans of Harry Potter has had its release delayed in India. Hari Puttar : The Comedy of Terrors was supposed to hit cinemas in India on Friday, but won't now be shown on the big screen until the end of the month. The company that makes the Harry Potter films, Warner Bros, doesn't want the film to come out at all. It says that calling the film Hari Puttar will confuse people, and has used the courts to delay the release. But the company behind the Bollywood film says their movie has nothing to do with the wizard films about Harry. Mirchi Movies told the BBC that Hari is a popular Indian name, and Puttar means 'son' in Hindi and Punjabi. The company added that they have been planning on using the title since 2005.

It's not about Shakespeare and not based on " King Lear ," but fans of the Bard may find traces of both in a new Bollywood film set in modern-day India. Amitabh Bachchan , Bollywood's biggest star, plays a reclusive stage actor in " The Last Lear ," one who quotes Shakespeare with relish and is making his movie debut at an old age. Passages from some of Shakespeare's best known works are sprinkled into the film's dialogues and, in one scene, Bachchan chases a reporter out of his house for misspelling the name of Oberon, the king of the fairies in "A Midsummer Night's Dream". "Shakespeare almost becomes a character in the film," director Rituparno Ghosh told Reuters this week. "He acts as the divine power, and his presence in certain moments almost acts as a divine intervention." "The Last Lear," one of few Bollywood films to be made in English, opened in Indian cinemas on Friday, a year after it premiered ...

Delhi to pressure stars as it aims to enforce public smoking ban India is set to enforce a new law banning smoking in public places, including bars and restaurants, from Oct 2, as part of efforts to cut a habit that is fast spreading to women and the young. One of the federal Health Ministry's first targets is Bollywood's reigning star Shah Rukh Khan. It plans to bombard the actor with literature detailing the harm caused by cigarettes. The government is also targeting other actors whom it feels are influencing youngsters to pick up the habit. Khan, a chain-smoker who has already been taken to court by a non-government organisation for breaking a law that prohibits smoking in public places, was reportedly spotted lighting up during the shooting of a film at a college in the Sikh holy city of Amritsar in Punjab. The Punjab health authorities have decided to send a notice to the actor for violating the ban, state officials said. Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss, who has taken up...

Two films old Deepika Padukone is shining like a star. Filmmakers have started tagging her as a lucky charm and consider her to be a crowd puller. They feel that her small appearance may prove wonders and may result in box-office success also. Looking at her immense popularity, director Priyadarshan has signed in Deepika for a cameo in his upcoming flick Billo Barber which has Shahrukh and Nana Patekar in pivotal roles. Actually, it was Priyan who was to introduce Deepika to the cine world but things did not work out accordingly and instead she was launched by Farah Khan in Om Shanti Om . Priyan did not have any ill-feeling regarding missing Deepika but was happy that she was associated with Farah’s film and got to taste success in her first attempt.

The industry buzz is that this time too Yash Chopra will be making his next film with his two favourite actors, Shah Rukh and Amitabh Bachchan who will also play a pivotal role in the film.

Today Malayalam film industry is the only film domain immune to the six pack abs syndrome that has spread across celebrities in the country, especially South India! We hardly hear about any one from Malayalam film industry who is trying to achieve a stylish six pack abs, whereas in other states, almost every young (and not-so-young) actor is hurriedly running behind the latest trend of having six pack abs and well-toned bodies! Perhaps late Jayan is the only actor who was very different from the majority of typical well-rounded Malayalam stars today! With a good physique that befitted an action hero, he exploited his masculine physique and often appeared bare-chested in many scenes. However, we need to agree on one thing; namely that there is a huge divide in audiences' definition of male superstars in Kerala vs. other other states. Malayalam superstar Mohanlal has almost the same explanation why Malayalam film industry is still unaffected by the six pack abs syndrome. "I kn...

Designer Rocky S has clothed Bollywood star Akshay Kumar for eight long years and says the actor is the most stylish and metrosexual man around. "I have worked with Akshay for eight years. I really respect him for the way he has groomed himself. He has become one of the biggest metrosexual stars , most stylish fashion icon and he is so successful that I am proud of him. Just look from where he has come and where he has reached," Rocky told IANS. However, he is no longer designing for Akshay. "I started designing for Akshay in 1992. But I stopped working with him in 2000 because I had to move on. Also, both of us needed to take a break from each other," he added. Unlike most other Indian designers who started their career by showcasing their collections at fashion shows, Rocky started his stint designing for Bollywood stars. "I started 16 years back. At that time the only opportunity I got was in Bollywood. I think it was good for me as it has created awa...

It’s true; there is a swap in titles for the Two Khans of the Industry. Aamir Khan has taken over Shah Rukh Khan ’s title of (prolific), while Shah Rukh takes over Aamir’s title of (perfectionist). Shah Rukh indeed has mellowed down after giving back to back blockbuster hits for a decade. Now he is slowed down his pace. After the thunderous success of ‘ OSO ’ a year ago, Shah Rukh is yet to deliver another flick. But he will only be seen in a cameo-bit role in ‘ Billo Barber ’, and then there will be ‘ Rab ne …’ not hitting the market before 2009. Meanwhile Aamir Khan ’s fans will be generously happy to know that they will get to se a lot more of Aamir in the near future. ‘ Ghajini ’ is slated for a Christmas release. Soon after, ‘3 Idiots’ will hit the market, followed by a sequel of comedy ‘ Andaz Apna Apna ’ and a home production thriller to top it all. Aamir’s fan will get to see him more than ever before in the months to come. This swapping by the two superstars will surely sh...

The actor has registered the title with the AMPTPP compelling the makers of the Rajnikanth film to rename it as Enthiram. The title of the much hyped Rajnikanth and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starrer Robot has been changed to the Tamil Enthiram (also meaning robot). Industry sources reveal that it’s because Shah Rukh Khan’s company Red Chillies has registered the title Robot and nine other titles with the word ‘robot’ in it with the Association of Motion Pictures and TV Programme Producers (AMPTPP) in Mumbai. These include titles like Robot , Mein Hoon Robot , Mera Robot , Pyara Robot , Robot a Hero , Robot Hoon Mein , Robot My Hero , Robotics and Robott. Incidentally, the film Robot was supposed to have King Khan playing the lead. However, talks between Shankar and SRK fell through. “Shankar couldn’t have gone ahead with Robot as it is said that Shah Rukh has already registered all the names around it. So he had no other option but to change his film’s title,” confirms a source. The...

The name Raj signifies many things. It is basically associated with the King Khan of Bollywood , Shahrukh. This name instantly reminds us about his lover boy image. Raj of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Raj of DDLJ take breaths of teenager girls. They die over Shahrukh’s style, romance and his expression of love.
