Its Khiladi Akshay Kumar vs Khans

http://bollywood.celebden.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/untitled15.JPG

They say they are the best, he keeps mum. They indulge in cat fights, he stays away. They throw parties to be one up on the other, he has one party in almost five years and all the industry wallahs make a beeline for his house. They wax loud their fat remunerations, he has already stashed his booty away for a rainy day. Yes, Akshay Kumar has beaten all the Khans in their own game of acting, panache and smart business moves.

Like Shah Rukh, Akshay is smart and has a business acumen that can be rivaled by few. His fee includes distribution deals that far surmount the fees of an actor. And he is the favoured one right now. Ask Neo sports or Percept Picture Company.

He doesn’t restrict himself to just acting in his films, he actively participates in the promotion of his films. He believes that it plays a crucial part in the success of a film and just like SRK, Akki has promoted his last few releases like Bhool Bhullaiyya, Welcome and Singh Is Kinng in a big way that has got the cash registers jingling.

Like Aamir Khan, Akshay has started experimenting with his films, not to forget his looks. First to release is Percept Picture Company’s Jumbo where he has lent his voice to the central character. He plays a cook in an action-adventure-comedy Chandni Chowk To China. While in Eight By Ten , Akshay Kumar plays a psychological superhero with amazing mental powers. Kambhakt Ishq is about the life of a stuntman played by Akki. And he plays a fisherman based in the Bahamas in Ashtavinayak’s forthcoming film Blue.

But unlike Aamir, Akki is an industrious worker and has several releases in a year. This puts him in a league way ahead of the Raja Hindustani. Like Salman Khan, Akshay is also a mass actor and popular among all age groups. In fact he is more popular than Sallu and as a result of that Akki replaced Sallu in the Thumps Up commercial.

That’s why Akki stole all the “thunder” from Salman in Mujhse Shaadi Karoge .

Like Saif Ali Khan, Akki is flanked by a gorgeous woman. But unlike Saif, Akki has two women. Twinkle Khanna to stand by him at home and Katrina Kaif to walk the red carpet for his films. No wonder they call him the Khiladi. Saif still has a long way to beat this deadly combination of Akshay.

Coming from a non filmy background Akshay has created a niche for himself in the film industry. Needless to say that there’s no one except Akki who is giving the Khans a run for their money in their own turf.

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.

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.

Bollywood: John Abraham’s Slum Connection

Bollywood New Movie Slumdog Millionaire has definitely made the slums of Mumbai a little popular. Perhaps this is why they are so welcoming to every director who wants to make a film on their lifestyle. John Abraham’s fortcoming film Hook Ya Crook is also one of those films shot in the Chikalwadi Chawl of Mumbai. This film is directed by David Dhawan and John Abraham playes a cricketer who resides in the chawl. In a song John and Genelia D’Souza dance to a tapori-ish number with the typical tapori dance steps. The residents of the slum were delighted to see the stars around and cheered for the unit as they worked. John Abraham added to their delight by giving them autographs and taking pictures with them.
