Southern actress Asin, who has two big Bollywood movies in her kitty - Aamir Khan-starrer Ghajini and Vipul Shah’s London Dreams - says she can’t settle for substandard deals. “I’m very excited about both Ghajini and London Dreams. I’ve a long list of criteria for selecting a role, beginning with the director, banner and co-star and ending with the cinematographer. I want them all to be just right. Am I being greedy? Perhaps. I’m sorry. I can’t settle for anything but the best,” Asin said. In London Dreams, Asin plays a singer and gets to play the guitar and sing on stage along with Ajay Devgan and Salman Khan. “It’s something I’ve never played before. In fact, I think it’s a role never seen in Indian cinema. Beyond that I can’t talk about it,” she said.

Pankaj Rag has a well-kept secret. The director of Punebased Film and Television Institute of India, who authored a book on music directors, has a collection of about 500 unreleased songs sung by Bollywood's greatest singers.

Recentley when Asha Bhosle was asked to give her take on reality shows she said, “I never watch any reality shows because I don’t have time and nor am I interested in watching a fake drama!

I guess I have already made my point.” Himmesh had apologized to Asha Bhosle last year on the sets Zee TV’s Sa Re Ga Ma Pa, where b...
