And we met very warmly” and then quickly he added, “Salman aur mere beech koi problem nahin tha. Partner 2 didn’t take off and people stared talking.”

Do Knot Disturb Review

David Dhawan has always made wacky and bizarre films and his new baby DO KNOT DISTURB doesn't push the envelope either. His critics may term his cinema outlandish and outrageous, but the fact is that his films cater to the aam junta . His mantra is simple: Haso aur hasao . Now let's analyse DO KNOT DISTURB, inspired by the French film LA DOUBLURE aka THE VALET [2006]. David has tackled extra-marital affairs in his earlier films like SAAJAN CHALE SASURAL, GHARWALI BAHARWALI and BIWI NO. 1. DO KNOT DISTURB also talks of a married man having a torrid affair with a supermodel, but it's not remotely similar to his past endeavours. Actually, DO KNOT DISTURB rests on a thin plot and David relies on gags and jokes to keep you hooked for those 2 + hours. Even though you realise that there's not much meat in the story, even though the situations are silly, you remain glued to the proceedings because it keeps you in splits thanks to the funny jokes and the weird characters. So wha...

Slim and svelte Govinda's daughter Narmmadaa Ahuja's fitness regimen

It seems the fitness bug doesn't spare anyone. Even though she's already quite slim and svelte, Govinda's daughter Narmmadaa Ahuja is the latest debutante to jump onto the treadmill. The bodacious beauty, who is getting ready to announce her debut film, has been exercising religiously over the past weeks, led by her personal trainer, Viraj Samalkar. And the results seem to be showing. Not that she needed to, but Narmmadaa has already lost around four to five kilos of weight under Samalkar's guidance. Viraj has put her on a strict regimen of dieting and exercise. ''I'm very particular about working out and sometimes even manage to workout at the break of dawn.'Though the newbie says, she prefers exercising ''on warm summer mornings, rather than these dull rainy ones''. While she has her mind set on her health, Samalkar makes her do thirty crunches every alternate day that in her own words, are ''the most tedious part of the regimen...

Fat Govinda apes Slim Daughter

Bollywood Actor Govinda, in his attempt to re-capture lost glory of successful hey-days, succumbs to daughter's diet plans. You can never be thin or rich enough. Her mother isn't thin and Govinda's weight gain must have frightened his daughter so much that she is working out a little extra to keep the extra pounds at bay.

Deepika Padukone is the fittest star in Bollywood: Govinda

Q. You have been for a long time now in Bollywood. Which were your best days of your professional career? A. Starting from Shola Aur Shabnam to 1997 released film Bade Miya Chote Miya , was the best period of my life as during that period I did some good roles and that too with innocence. Q. Now too the innocence in visible in the roles you play. How do you manage to treasure that innocence? A. As one takes care of his/her house so that it looks attractive to him/her as well as others. Likewise one should also make sure to regularly clean his/her mind thinking of Saraswati Maata . I also do the same thing. Q. Now-a-days you are known to divert your attention more towards spiritualism; any special reason behind it? A. I am moving towards spiritualism due to my mother. For the start, I was very hot-tempered and had to indulge in fights. But once I got inspired by my mother’s teachings and became her student, life changed for me. I learnt a lot of good things from my mother. At the same...

I want people to make big bucks on my show: Salman Khan

Salmans TV debut 10 Ka Dum has proved to be an incredible hit especially for the host himself. The actor has been much appreciated by viewers and critics primarily for his earthy humor, confidence and a very distinctive style. Although Sallu had to struggle a lot with the language, but he managed to play wonderfully with words and pulled the show off keeping the audience entertained, throughout. In an exclusive interview with Spicezee , Salman said, I want people to make as much money as they can, without any effort on 10 ka Dum. According to sources, the good guy Salman is a lot of fun on the show and doesnt really believe in just sitting and playing the game. He rather lets the contestants do most of the talking and hog the cameras. Younger brother Arbaaz Khan says , Salman thoroughly enjoys every moment on the show. He never rehearses dialogues and simply follows his heart. I would say that he is just himself on 10 ka Dum. Sallus friends including Bollywood bigwigs Govind...

Bollywood recognised me post Big Boss: Ravi

Ravi Kishan. Well folks, 2008 may add a dash of Bhojpuri flavour to the Bollywood flicks! Hold on, we’ll tell you what we mean by that. The uncrowned king of Bhojpuri cinema – Ravi Kishan –is all set to make his presence felt in Bollywood this year! His kitty is brimming with interesting roles, big banners and equally big co-stars. Talking to KT about how he got the role in Ganesh Acharya's Money Hai To Honey Hai, Kishan informs, “Ganeshji is my mentor. It is from him that I learnt dancing. It was he who approached me for the movie. I play the role of a millionaire called Vimal while Govinda, Manoj Bajpai, Aftab and Upen Patel are all playing conmen. The movie is about how all of them land in Mauritius and dupe this millionaire. It is a humorous movie and we had lots of fun during its shooting.” Carrying on in the same vein, Ravi adds, “Besides Money Hai To Honey Hai I am working in a movie called Luck with Sanjay Dutt in which I play the role of a psycho...

Salman, Shah Rukh and now Saif! Its Abs-salute madness

Saif Ali Khan in a still from Race. 18 February 2008 (Sawf News) – Salman Khan started the trend years ago. Shah Rukh Khan jumped on the bandwagon with Om Shanti Om and now Saif Ali Khan is in the Race claiming I 'Khan' too. So what are we talking about? Abs…six pack! That is what Bollywood stars wear these days on the screen, not shirts. They don't play roles any more, they fit into them helped by designers and trainers. Shah Rukh Khan in Om shanti Om. The leading ladies still keep their chests covered. Well, most of them. So they name drop their designers while the men talk about their trainers. So if it's Neeta Lulla for Aishwarya Rai it is Prashant Sawant for Shah Rukh. ’Race’ film stills In between their shots the actors don't practice their dialogs. Why would they need to - the dialogs are 'sadak chaap'. Instead they do pushups and crunches so that their muscles ripple when the camera rolls again. Salman Khan and Govinda in a still from ...
