Everyone saw a different side of Salman Khan on the sets of Subhash Ghai’s musical extravaganza ‘Yuvvraaj’. He turned out to be quite a stellar attraction to some of the students of Whistling Woods International, not in the class but in the gym. While shooting for a particular portion of ‘Yuvvraaj’ in the Goregaon Filmcity region it was quite a site to see Salman hanging out in the WWI gym bonding with students and even giving them lessons in grooming and physical fitness. The actor who is playing the lead singer in forthcoming ‘Yuvvraaj’ emphasized the importance of physical fitness, look, and style. While asked about his experience with interacting the new generation, Salman says with a grin “It was really fun to see these future actors, technicians in such a high spirit. It used to be an informal sessions with them while working out, I will always prefer to pass the knowledge spontaneously rather than sitting in a classroom. My advice will always be that an actor must spend a lot...

After the three big consecutive banner Karzzz according to the verdict was a disaster, Kidnap which went flop and Hello which was below average. Golmaal Returns and Fashion releasing on the same day have not completely blown the cinema halls. Golmaal Returns is showing on 6-8 shows at multiplexes today while Fashion is on 5-6 shows.

October 25 saw the packed Dubai Festival City Arena being thoroughly entertained. We are obviously referring to Shah Rukh Khan's 'Temptations Reloaded' concert, which had a capacity crowd thirsting for more. As per exclusive reports, the show started just before midnight and saw top Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif performing to her super–hit songs from PARTNER, RACE and SINGH IS KINNG. Katrina's solo act was followed by Shah Rukh Khan's grand entry at around 2:00 in the night. But the high point of the show was when King Khan performed with Katrina and it was sheer magic resulting in the crowd going wild. The sold out show went on till about 4:00 in the morning. While detailed reports (about other artists) are still awaited, we are reminded of what Moranis had once said – Just make Shah Rukh Khan stand on stage and the crowd will go wild!

So far, 2008 has proved to be tragic for makers of comedy films Comedies didn't bring much joy to the box-office this year, but all eyes are now set on "Golmaal Returns" with the hope to renew faith in the genre and infuse some cheer in the festive season which has been dampened by the global economic meltdown. The year 2008 has so far proved to be tragic for makers of comedy films. While action films like "Race" and "Jannat" have been hits, only a couple of comedy films have made their mark this year. Unexpectedly serious, issue-based films like "Black and White", "Shaurya" and "Aamir" found eager audiences. But nobody seems to even remember the names of comedies that are being released regularly and vanishing into nothingness, barring romantic comedies like "Singh is Kinng". The big dampeners include big ticket films like "Krazzy 4" with Irrfan Khan, Rajpal Yadav, Arshad Warsi, Suresh Menon, Juhi Chaw...

The much awaited promos of Yuvvraaj may not of had the desired effect as yet but Salman Khan has a sure shot winner in Boney Kapoor’s Wanted . This remake of Telugu super hit Pokkiri stars Ayesha Takia opposite Salman with Mahesh Manjrekar playing the main villain. While Yuvvraaj and Salman ’s next release after that, Main Aur Mrs Khanna are romantic films, after a very long time Salman will be seen in an action avatar in any film. Wanted is carrying excellent reports and is touted to get back Salman’s action fans back to the cinema halls! Our source who managed a sneak peak of the rushes told us, “The biggest asset of the film is the music by Sajid Wajid which is definitely bound to rule the charts.

Two more songs remain to be filmed and they shall be shot in Greece very soon once Salman is back from London. The action scene just before the interval is totally out of this world and wi...

Not in real life but on reel Deepika Padukone will get to romance the Bollywood’s hazel-eyed Hunk, Hrithik Roshan . At the very start of her career, Deepika is getting to be the love interest of Bollywood big wigs like Shahrukh Khan , Saif Ali Khan and Akshay Kumar . Now, the latest news is that she is set to play the ladylove of Hrithik Roshan . According to the B-Town buzz, director Sanjay Leela Bhansali has finalized Deepika and Hrithik for his next film which is going to be a touching love story. Though the two actors haven’t reportedly signed on the dotted line yet, they are likely to do so when they meet Bhansali in the near future. Hrithik is presently holidaying in Bora Bora, close to Tahiti with his wife Suzanne Khan. He has been busy for the last two months shooting his home production Kites in USA. On the other hand, Deepika has been busy with Saif’s home production that’s being directed by Imtiaz Ali . She is also working with Akshay in Chandni Chowk To China for wh...

"One has either to feed people or amuse people in order to be remembered for life" These are the words of a famous English philosopher, who, we are sure had just not heard of Aamir Khan ! Aamir is one actor who dares to defy all of the above 'methods'. Instead, he takes his super highway and 'shocks' people at equal intervals! Few months back, Aamir shocked the masses when he released the pics of his near bald look in Ghajini . Also, since a quite some time, there have been talks in the media that Aamir is working hard on his physique for Ghajini . And just when the 'six pack abs' fad seemed to be dying out, Aamir has unveiled his chiseled physique in Ghajini and how! People close to Aamir have been raving that he currently has the best physique in the film industry and well, we really can't deny that. For starters, the tattoos on his body are actually 'reminders' of 'To-do' things. The reason? Well, the news is that, in Ghajini , ...

Not very long ago, there was a whole lot of talk about Sylvester Stallone being mighty impressed by Kareena Kapoor on the sets of ‘ Kambakkht Ishq ’ in LA. As if that was not enough, now the news is that Kareena has supposedly declined a role in Gurinder Chadda’s next which was likely to star Hollywood superstar, Johnny Depp opposite her. The director is in serious talks with Depp for this film. Now whether he’ll accept the movie or not is another matter, since Chadha’s ‘Bride and Prejudice’ which had Ash romancing Matin Henderson was far from impressive! The ‘ Bride and Prejudice ’ NRI filmmaker reportedly offered Kareena a role in the lavish, international production. But Kareena turned her down with the simple ‘no dates’ answer. Apparently she’s unimpressed by Hollywood offers and would rather do meaningful and bigger roles in Bollywood, like what she’s doing in ‘3 Idiots’, ‘Kambakkht Ishq’ and ‘ Main Aur Mrs Khanna ’, all with superstars. She would rather be the queen of Boll...

The dreamy-eyed dogs in " Roadside Romeo " are classic Disney animation, but the song-and-dance numbers in Walt Disney's first co-production in India are pure Bollywood . The film, co-produced with Yash Raj Films , one of India's top movie studios, represents Disney's largest step yet in its bid to enter the Indian market. First-time director Jugal Hansraj was told to make a movie rooted in Indian nuances. "They wanted a film that could be a Bollywood film if it were not an animation film," he said. "People should feel, 'This is our film; it's made for us.'" In " Road side Romeo ," which opens Friday in India, a twist of fate throws a spoiled brat onto Mumbai's rough streets where he meets a honey-eyed nightclub singer. Their romance is dogged by a snarling villain and fight sequences but blossoms nonetheless, and the films ends — as if there could be any other way in Bollywood — with the two scampering off ha...

Famous numerologist Sanjay B Jumaani, who had earlier precisely predicted Amitabh Bachchan's 'stomach trouble' on his birthday, has now forecast Shah Rukh's health trouble. According to Sanjay, "Shah Rukh khan is entering his 44th year and the addition of 4 + 4 amounts to number 8, which represents Saturn or Shani that can cause illness over anxiety, stress, blood pressure and diabetes." Two days prior to Amitabh's birthday, Jumani had reportedly predicted the actor's hospitalisation owing to stomach trouble, hoping his instincts to go wrong. This time while predicting health trouble for SRK, Sanjay again wishes to be proved wrong. "Again I am hoping I am wrong. I was, of course, very moved by Mr Bachchan's plight and conveyed my concern to his family," says Jumani. We are sure that not just Jumani, but everybody would be truly hoping that SRK sails through the not-so-favourable times ahead. Photos of shahrukh khan | shahrukh khan phot...

Hollywood's latest news Rough estimates suggest that Rs 700 crore of foreign studio funds is floating in Bollywood right now . Walt Disney, Sony, Warner, Fox Star and Paramount are all headed for tinsel town. Every Hollywood studio is figuring out the best possible entry into the Indian market, trade insiders say. The American film market has been stagnant for about eight months now, forcing Hollywood studios to scout for growth opportunities. The global meltdown, in fact, may have actually precipitated the foreign studios' entry into India, say experts. Low investments (the dollar is much stronger than the rupee), a strong domestic film market (Bollywood is the biggest producer of movies in the world) and huge growth potential makes India a very lucrative market now, they explain. "Their aim is to connect with the world's largest cine-going audience," Vipul Shah, who has entered into a Rs-150-crore deal with Fox-Star Studios, says. Walt Disney Company (Ind...

British-born Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif, who has given many hits with Akshay Kumar , says she trusts the star's script sense and often follows him into projects. Katrina's last hit with Akshay was Singh is Kinng . "He has a fantastic script sense. And you know, when he's doing it, it will work. Not that I go blindly into films that feature him. But, yes, he does have a fantastic knowledge of what works at the box office. That explains our success ratio together," Katrina said. Interestingly, in Vipul Shah's Namastey London , Katrina had the main role while Akshay played the supporting part. The tables were turned in Singh Is Kinng . But Katrina says she wasn't allowed to complain. "Every time I'd start complaining about the size of my role, Akshay would order me to go and stand in a corner and repeat Namastey London five times and be quiet. He's right. He needn't have done Namastey London , which was the girl's story," sa...

This week is indeed a very stressful one for Bollywood's reigning queen Aishwarya Rai , both, on the physical as well as the mental level. First, it was her father-in-law, Amitabh Bachchan , who took ill on his birthday, and got admitted in Lilavati Hospital. No sooner did he step on the path to recovery; Aishwarya's father , Krishna Raj Rai fell ill and was immediately admitted at Hinduja Hospital. Sources say that he had only gone there as a part of his routine check up, but was admitted immediately after that. Source-sify.com

However two days before the first show in Berlin Friday, it was cancelled to the deep disappointment of ShahRukh fans. Source-freshnews.in

First it was the music then came the marketing and overnight a movie star was born. After the movie released it was clear that this star would endear. People had liked the cute, thoughtful and endearing awkward hero. Twenty-four year old, Imran Khan knows that he has had a dream debut but the real test in the Hindi film industry starts now. Here is a verbatim transcript of an exclusive interview with Imran Khan on CNBC TV18. Also see the accompanying video. Q: Between the two films Kidnap and Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, how are you feeling personally before the release of the two films because I am guessing there would be two different Imran’s waiting for the release? A: I remember one of the most common question asked after ‘will you sing us a song?’ during Jaane Tu time was “How are you feeling. Are you nervous? Are you scared?” and I wasn’t as I had Aamir Khan overseeing absolutely everything and that gives a fair amount of confidence that Aamir Khan is standing back somewher...

Salman Khan on religion, patriotism and his upcoming film, 'Heroes'. Q. Hello Hero! (Laughs) Nice way to start huh! But the ultimate hero is not me but Sohail Khan. Watch out for him in 'Heroes'. Q. Sohail has done really well for himself, hasn't he? Yes. When Sohail did 'Maine Dil Tujhko Diya', he was appreciated in the film but the film didn't do really well. He got a bit demoralized. He was doing well as a director and with his production company. At that point of time he wanted to do action but the fact was that he was good at comedy. He is one of the few people who can do justice to action and comedy. But as a family we thought that he should concentrate on comic roles. That's when 'Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya', 'God Tussi Great Ho', 'Jaane Tu...Ya Jaane Na', 'Hello' and now 'Heroes' happened. Q. 'Is Heroes' a tribute to the Indian jawans in a way? 'Heroes' isn'...

Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan have always had a competition between themselves. Shahrukh has always had box office successes where as Aamir has been labeled as the perfectionist actor in the industry. It is not surprising that corporate giants are have brought in Aamir to counter Shahrukh's aura. Samsung signed Aamir after Shahrukh became the brand ambassador of Nokia. Tata Sky made Aamir do the jingalala act after Shahrukh starred in the Dish TV commercial. Now Aamir took a dig at Shahrukh in his witty style. When quizzed about competition from Dish TV Aamir replied "Dish TV? Whats that?" To another question whether he was following SRK's media friendly ways Aamir stated that he did not follow others but did what he wanted to do. Hope this does not start a war of word between the two stars.

The ultimate desire of Michelle Yeoh is to pair with India’s romantic idol King Khan . Actress Michelle Yeoh is best known for acting in multiple-Oscar winning film Crouching Tiger , Hidden Dragon and Bond film DieAnother Day . “I know Shah Rukh Khan is quite famous in India and I would love to star opposite him. But unfortunately no calls yet. But, yes I wish I could get to work with him as a lead actress, be it a Hollywood or Indian film ,” says Yeoh . This Asian actress is a Bollywood fan too. “I am an Asian and I like Indian films a lot. Have seen a couple of them in subtitles,” said Yeoh. Michelle Yeoh stars opposite Vin Diesel in Babylon A D, which is set against the backdrop of not-too- distant future where much of the planet is in a war zone left by nuclear meltdowns. In the film, Diesel is playing the character of a mercenary, who is assigned to smuggle a young woman Aurora (Melanie Thierry) from a convent in Kazakhstan to New York City with Sister Rebeka ( Michell...

T completion of his forthcoming venture Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi Shah Rukh Khan plans to take a long break. Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is Aditya Chopra's third directorial venture and is slated for a December 12 release. The actor has already postponed the release of his Billoo Barber to next year now. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh will be busy with the curtain raiser of his Temptations tour on October 25 in Dubai. After the event, he plans to take a long break and go on a holiday with his family. Sources reveal, "Shah Rukh often takes his family on a holiday. Last year he did the same before the release of his Om Shanti Om ." Shah Rukh plans to come back and reshoot scenes of Billoo Barber after this major break. Sources reveal that the actor is not happy with his special appearance in the film. Since Ranjnikants Kuselan a Tamil remake of the same version did not do well at the box office, the actor wants to take no chances with his film. Major portions of the film will be reshot.

Karzzz and OSO are remakes of the Rishi Kapoor starrer Karzzz . And we find that more than just the inspiration for the film, the two main leads share quite a few similarities between them. Himesh Reshammiya is going all out to promote his film Karzzz . He is seen on reality shows like Sa Re Ga Ma Pa , he is also doing concerts for TV; he is giving live interviews to news and radio channels and giving print and TV interviews alongside. All this extra enthusiasm prior to a film's release is reminiscent of a super charged SRK who was all over the place during the promotion of Om Shanti Om . Another thing SRK and Himesh have in common is losing weight for their respective movies. Both Himesh and SRK have followed a strict workout regime and a high protein diet of tandoori chicken and boiled food to attain a lean physique. The songs of both OSO and Karzzz have become chartbusters. While Dard-e-disco, Ajab Si and Deewangi ruled the charts then, songs like Tandoori Nights, Lut Ja...

The opening song , as Salman Khan storms on to stage and stomps his way through the extremely catchy Boom Boom makes you want to whistle, but be warned — it’s the only time you will want to do so. The rest of the film makes you wish you had not answered this wrong number. For the most part, the script stays close to Chetan Bhagat’s book, barring that Katrina Kaif shares the story of six individuals and one night at a call centre when they receive a call from God with Salman Khan at an air base waiting lounge and not on a train journey. The first hour is spent establishing the characters and their uninteresting backstories. The film is so slow that you feel like you have endured the entire night shift, in real time, with this technically challenged and emotionally stunted group of call centre employees. The dialogues are juvenile like this gem : “Dad, don’t clutter my mailbox like you have cluttered my life. I don’t want your attachment or your file attachments.” OK, maybe Bhagat des...

Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan , who was admitted to Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital on Saturday afternoon following abdominal pain, is responding well to the treatment. Earlier, reports stated that the actor might have to remain hospitalised for at least a week. However, it has now been confirmed in the latest Lilavati Hospital bulletin that Bachchan's tests don't indicate any abnormality and medicines are working just fine. "He has an intestinal obstruction. He is responding well to the medication. The doctors have requested for 48 to 72 hours of observation. So, we will keep him in hospital for 48 to 72 hours," said Abhishek Bachchan while assuring fans of father's stable condition. Bachchan, who turned 66 yesterday, was admitted to Lilavati Hospital in the afternoon "with the history of abdominal pain, which has been relieved by medicine", a hospital statement said. Bachchan, who was at the time celebrating his birthday at his bungalow in Juhu, was...

As usual Salman Khan was absent from the promotional events surrounding his latest movie Heroes that hits theatres this weekend. Though his co-stars Sohail Khan, Sharman Joshi, Amrita Arora and Gul Panag have been busy promoting the film through the week, Salman has preferred to be behind the scenes on the marketing front “My job is acting. People, fans know what to expect from a film, they will go and see it. I don’t believe in promoting a film,” says Salman. Apart from the movie, it is Salman’s romantic life that keeps the gossip mills active. Latest buzz is about his impending split from girlfriend Katrina Kaif . But Salman Khan denies this rumour and adds that Katrina Kaif ’s simplicity keeps him besotted. “I love simple girls. Nice, simple, straight. I don’t like women who manipulate and scheme,” says the actor. Another buzz is about him dancing shirtless, even at the age of 43. “We have grown up on disco dancing and those typical filmi struggling days so it is very dif...

Here is a round-up of Bollywood news from Indian newspapers on Friday, Oct 10. Reuters has not verified these stories and does not vouch for their accuracy. HRITHIK INJURED - Actor Hrithik Roshan tore a ligament in his ankle while shooting for the film "Kites" in Las Vegas, the DNA reported. Roshan completed work on the last day of the film’s shooting despite the injury, the paper said. SRK AS SUPERHERO - Actor Shah Rukh Khan 's next home production, a superhero film with state-of-the-art special effects, has been tentatively titled "Ra," the Mid-Day reported. The film is likely to go on the floors next year, the paper said.

Preity, with your next film Heroes coming up. Are you nervous or excited? Frankly speaking, I am very excited. I was nervous when I was shooting for the film. It was a very difficult role for me, because it was not in my comfort zone as an actor. This role was something that I have not attempted before. For instance, when someone offers me a role of an NRI, I can play that role with ease because it's in my comfort zone. But my role in Heroes has got a very rural flavor to it. It's a role of a simple girl from a village, who speaks Punjabi and is a woman of the soil. She works on a tractor and makes rotis in a village house. In that sense, it's a very different kind of role. What is the name of your character in the film and can you oblige us by giving a sneak peak into the lives of 'Heroes'? The name of my character is Kuljeet Kaur, who is an Indian by every inch. And as far as the 'sneak peak' into the film is concerned, all I can say is that ...

Off screen Salman and Katrina are a hit pair. But on screen the two have not yet managed to light up the silver screen. And now after a gap of three years Kaif and Khan will be seen romancing each other in Subhash Ghai’s Yuvvraaj. Post their first on screen pairing in Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya , the two have stayed away from pairing up in films even though they got together in real life. Partner followed after a couple of years but the film saw Katrina in love with Govinda instead. Before Yuvvraaj they will be seen in Hello but yet again the two aren’t paired together. Katrina plays God in Hello while Salman makes a cameo. So it has taken super successful director Subhash Ghai to pair the two. Though Anil Kapoor and Zayed Khan are also a part of this Subhash Ghai project, Yuvvraaj is expected to be a Salman–Katrina show all the way and as usual she looks stunning in this movie with her off-screen love Salman Khan . We spoke to our source close to her," Katrina has been enjoying w...

Big B and SRK are all set to play cameos in Vivek Sharma’s Kal Kisne Dekha . The two biggest actors in Bollywood acted in Yash Chopra film ‘ Mohabatein ’ and Karan Johar’s ‘ Kabhi Kushi Kabhi Gham ’. Kal Kisne Dekha stars two newcomers, the lead actors being Jacky (son of producer Vashu Bhagnani) and Vaishali Desai (grand daughter of Manmohan Desai). The film has 15 stars playing cameo roles including Juhi Chawla and Rishi Kapoor. The director is reluctant to open up much about the flick and remarks,” It’s a great feeling to have tasted success in the very first attempt and in addition to that, to be associated with two top notch stars of the film fraternity.” He described ‘Kal Kisne Dekha” as a romantic thriller adding ‘ Bhootnath ’ will remain close to his heart”.

After providing some cool gyaan in Reel life (as a Professor in TAARE ZAMEEN PAR ) now Mr. Perfectionist – Aamir Khan is all set to take the role of a Professor in real life. If the current reports are to be believed than actor Aamir Khan has been approached by India's topmost management Institute IIM–Ahmedabad to become a visiting professor at their Institute. Apparently the premier institution is initiating an elective course on �Introduction to Contemporary Film Industry' and is looking forward at the B–Town bigwigs to enlighten the students on the same. The course is expected to cover production, economics and marketing, in short the business & financials of the film industry. Apart from Aamir, other B–towners who have been approached to share the nitty–gritty's of the film industry with the students are Karan Johar, Ronnie Screwvala, Om Puri, Ram Gopal Varma, Mahesh Bhatt, Kishore Lulla, Kamal Hassan, Apoorva Lakhia, Madhur Bhandarkar and Vidhu Vinod Chopra The ...

A bhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan 's new film with Mani Ratnam -- tentatively called Ravan -- will be shot in a forest near the Athirapally waterfalls in Kerala. The film's shooting with other artistes has already started; the couple will join them very shortly. According to a source, Mani Ratnam is finalising the locations, and the shoot will start sometime next week. Incidentally, the Athirapally waterfalls is Mani's favourite location. He had earlier filmed parts of the Dil Se song, Jiya Jale (picturised on Preity Zinta ), and the Guru song, Barso re (picturised on Ash) at the same location. Mani Ratnam was earlier toying with the idea of shooting the film in Sri Lanka. But he abandoned the plan after insurgency by Tamil rebel group LTTE peaked against the Sri Lankan government. "It was not considered as a safe haven for shooting, so the shooting of Ravan shifted to Kerala ," said a source. Mani Ratnam had scored a hit with the younger Bachchans in ...
