With the current media's hullabaloo that actress Celina Jaitley is no more interested in capitalizing her sexy image, the Bollywood bikini babe came out with her very important clarification in a recent interview with us.
It's true that Celina will be dancing a classical number in her forthcoming Dubai show scheduled for first week of April, she also doesn't deny that the dance numbers she will perform in the show has been taken from the film 'Pakeezah' and 'Devdas' and she wants to tribute her performance to the great actresses Meena Kumari and Madhuri Dixit. "But that doesn't mean, I am going to shed my sexy image. Does the gal, who dances classical number, lacks sex appeal," quipped Celina.
However Celina, who got a chance to do a classical number for the first time in her career, is looking forward to the show. Why not, Celina has been trained in Indian classical dance,
so she will try her best to prove her capability is quite natural.

I still think of myself as a newcomer in Bollywood: Genelia DSouza
0 comments Posted by org at 10:34 PMSouth superstar Genelia started her career with Hindi film Tujhe Meri Kasam but with her recent appearance in Priyadarshan’s comic bone tickler Mere Baap Pelhe Aap the bubbly babe is still a newcomer for Mumbai audience. The reason maybe a gap of four years that the Masti-girl took before coming back after last Hindi flick Masti. This time she is packaged with comic stars Akshaye Khanna and Paresh Rawal. Let’s share few moments with the bindaas gal Genelia and try to know about her present film along with her POV towards her career and little more…
Q. Why did you accept the film?
A. Actually, Priyan sir himself came to meet me in Chennai with the story of the film. And hearing the story I agreed on doing it. And, Priyan sir’s story leaves no room to think twice before signing it.
Q. Few people think the name of the story is little cheap. What do you say?
A. I would ask all the people, who are talking about the name of the film as cheap, to go and watch the film once. I bet their view will completely change. It’s a beautiful film depicting the beauty of relationship between a father and his son. Yeah, the title of the film is little different but one has to think it’s a Priyadarshan film and he always tries something offbeat. The title actually appealed me and I think it’s very cute. The first word I said on hearing the title was ‘wah’.
Q. Please tell us about your character in the film.
A. I am playing a juvenile character named Shikha. She is a hardcore prankster but at the same time she is helpful to others. She helps Akshaye a lot to get his father married.
Q. The film is completely based on the relationship of father and son. How far will your character be important in the story?
A. It’s very important. My track runs parallel with their story track and both the tracks are important for the story. I help Akshaye a lot. My character is not partially important but affects the entire story.
A. Never. In my real life I am quite bindaas but never a prankster. Despite having been on a set of comedy, I kept behaving serious as because of my tension for better performance. I never enjoyed comic lines in the script just because of pressure of acting. It was the first chance for me to act in a Priyadarshan film and I didn’t want to turn anything wrong. Albeit I didn’t enjoy my lines during the shooting, I really enjoyed and laughed a lot on the same lines while dubbing them.
Q. There were director like Priyadarshan, actors like Akshaye Khanna and Paresh Rawal on the sets. How was your mental state at the shooting?
A. Initially I was little scared because all the three of them have worked before and they share quite a kind of friendship. I thought they won’t accept me among themselves as I was absolutely new to them. But there was nothing like that. Pareshji and Akshaye mixed with me so fast that I never had chance to think of my new entry to the team. And the most important matter was that they not only accepted me as the part of the team but also gave me the due honour as an actor.
Q. You are quite a known name in South but Bollywood is treating you as newcomer. How do you accept the issue?
A. Though I have done quite a lot of films, I still think of myself as a newcomer. After so many days of facing the camera I have become quite camera friendly but I still am not that clear about my shots. I still ask people about ‘how was it’ after every of my shots. Maybe my not having any filmy background is a reason behind that and I always want to learn. Everyday is a learning session to me. To be very precise, I don’t think of myself as a newcomer but a confident newcomer.
Q. Akshaye Khanna is known as very moody actor. How was your experience working with him?
A. I don’t think he is moody at all. Yeah, he is very calm and cool guy as he remained taciturn on the sets all the while just like me. He is not a guy who can misbehave with you. There were many situations where he helped me understanding and acting in several scenes. I think people have to have completely different point of views to call him moody.
Q. Any scene that troubled you most to act in?
A. I can recap shooting a song in Kerala. There were few long boats in water and while we were in one of them, boys and girls were in two separate boats. We had to go in synch with 120 other people sitting in the same boat. It’s really an interesting and surprising experience for me. I have worked in South previously, too, but this is for the first time that I enjoyed the beauty of Kerala.
Q. After Masti in 2004, you are in Mere Baap Pehle Aap in 2008. Why is the gap of four years?
A. It was not my intentional plan to take that time. In the year 2003 my three films were supposed to get released in three different languages – Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. But before those films could get released, I had to move to South and then there was no time to turn back. But I am happy with my comeback.
Q. Which does excite you most – South Indian or Hindi films?
A. Both. Whether it’s Hindi or in South Indian language, what I look for is always my character.
Q. Bollywood is alluring more and more new girls everyday. How are you prepared to compete with all the newcomers?
A. I am not inexperienced with the competition but I think my competition is only with myself. I always want to give my best to any project I am working in because filmmakers hire me for the betterment of their films. I would always like to payback 200% to the person who has shown his faith in me by providing the job to me. I know that I have no filmy background and every time I have to prove myself to stick to my position in the industry.
Q. This is your second comedy. How do you enjoy comedies personally?
A. I enjoy it very much. It’s only because our daily life of loaded tension needs comic moments to laugh all the tension away. That’s the reason of us liking comedies so much. I do enjoy every genre of films including comedy, thriller or even love stories. If asked about personal feelings, my preference of film is love stories but at the same time I do feel that humour is necessary even in love stories.
Q. And what about action flicks? You can see now a days most heroines are looking forward to action films.
A. I have been in athletes since my college days. So, I am very adventurous. Now I guess you can understand how much I like action. It would be a nice thing for me to have chance to do action in Hindi as I already have done action in South flicks. I still can remember that I got wounded during an action scene in South but I was so excited about the action that I completed the scene ignoring the wound completely.
Q. Please tell us about your forthcoming films.
A. In Hindi my future projects are Aamir Khan Production’s Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Anis Azmi’s It’s My Life. The second one is a Hindi remake of my Tamil film Barmalu. Barmalu in Tamil means ‘house of dolls’. I hope of getting the same crazy response from the Hindi audience as it got from the audience in South.

After Amrita Rao, now it’s baby Vidya who is desperately trying to change her looks and probably image also. And folks, what could have been better for Vidya Balan than to follow the fashion statement of stars like Saif Ali, Aamir and King Khan.
Yes, we are aptly talking about Vidya opting for a tattoo tale for her silky skin. Roaming around in the alleys of tinsel town all alone, the senorita has already gone crazy for attention and her heart is aching of pumping only blood and no adrenalin for affected affection. You know what we mean!
Thus, Vidya is all set to shed her next door girl image and adopt a brand new style statement. The gorgeous lady has accepted that she is going to tattoo her body. For the record we must recap that recently baby Vidya has been in the news with her brewing romance with lonely baba Shahid. After witnessing Shahid’s ex-girlfriend Kareena’s new dude Saif inking Kareena’s name on his arms, it would really be interesting to see whose name or which design Vidya would be choosing to cover her lonely skin.
Well though, Vidya’s upcoming venture Kismat Konnection has Shahid Kapoor as her co-star, the hotter cake should be counted on Vidya’s glistening skin. Sad part of the matter is now even Vidya will be out of the next door.Mallika Sherawat Videos From Murder Hot Scenes Katrina Kaif Bikini Images Deepika Padukone Photos And VideosKareena Kapoor Bikini Pics From Tashan Hot And Sizzingly Tanushree Dutta Exposing Photos

Being in love can be bliss. But what happens when the love of your life loves you a little too much for comfort? Seeking or showering constant attention from/on your partner can be quite suffocating. Either way, certain lines, under the pretext of jealousy or suspicion, are never meant to be crossed.
Even the seemingly infallible Bollywood stars have their share of grey days and blunders.
While the grapevine is abuzz with rumours of Saif Ali Khan getting a tad too close for girlfriend Kareena's comfort, Jannat heroine Sonal Chauhan is still recovering from the public humiliation she faced at the hands of her beau.
Previously too, Salman Khan's violent escapades with ex-flame Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made headlines.
Art imitates life in larger-than proportions. And so, on-screen possessiveness has been effectively exaggerated in several movies. Be it Raj Kapoor and Rajesh Khanna's jealousy-inflicted husbands in Andaaz and Aap Ki Kasam or Raj Babbar and Amjad Khan's bad-boy obsession with an indifferent party in Lava and Muqaddar Ka Sikander respectively.
rediff.com takes a look at this breathing-down-the-neck breed in Hindi films:
Shah Rukh Khan in Darr, Anjaam and Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam
In the early years of his career, playing bad caught SRK's obsession, pun intended.
He stammered to perfection as the neurotic lover-boy in Darr, chased the girl of his dreams with devious devotion in Anjaam and eavesdropped on wifey when not cribbing for her attention 24/7 in Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam.

The stifling 95 degree heat in Mumbai this weekend cannot be purely put down to the onset of the southern Indian summer. The self-satisfied glow of the organisers of the hugely successful Indian Premier League must also be ratcheting up the temperature a degree or two.
Built on a mountain of cash from some of India's richest individuals, the IPL began 44 days ago with a vision for the future that seemed almost as crackpot as the idea that India would boast one of the world's booming economies.Suspicion and scepticism greeted its beginning, but ever since Brendon McCullum set alight the opening match, the tournament has gathered strength and exceeded expectations. "It has been an unprecedented blockbuster," said one of the franchise owners, Vijay Mallya - and his Bangalore team bombed dismally.
The tournament culminates in the IPL play-off weekend, ending with tomorrow's final, where the organisers will be desperate to show the world their gleaming new toy. VIPs gathered from the world of cricket will be told how the IPL have broken their own targets in the first year.
The franchises expected to break even after year three. For the majority, it has happened in year one. Television viewing figures are astronomical, even by the standards of a country with a population of more than one billion. The huge advertising revenues have enabled people to ignore the inconvenient fact that 20 to 30 per cent of match tickets have been given away.
Finding a critic of the IPL is hard. The few dissenters within the Indian cricket board have been silenced by the £40 million they are set to make from the IPL's first edition."It has been sensational," said Kepler Wessels, coach of the Chennai Super Kings. "I've coached and played all over the world and over different eras and this reminds me very much of the Kerry Packer World Series that I played in. That was when cricket became professional and there is a similar vibe here. This has been a tremendous tournament and it will grow from strength to strength." That strength has been built on decent cricket, looking good for the cameras and appealing to the masses. Preity Zinta, the Bollywood actress and owner of the Punjab franchise, flashes her smile on cue, while one obsessed fan fell from the stands at Eden Gardens trying to get a glimpse of Kolkata owner, the superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
But this is India and cricketers are also kings. New stars have emerged, and predictably, they are mostly Australian. Shaun Marsh, the Western Australian batsman, was a snip at $30,000 (£15,171) for the Kings XI Punjab and is the tournament's leading run scorer with 593. Over at the Rajasthan Royals, Shane Watson has shown what he can do when he stays fit, while Marsh's team-mate Luke Pomersbach has biffed the ball at will.
It is a serious business for the players, who, for the first time in their careers, have had to publicly account for huge salaries.
"I remember lots of lads laughing and joking in the first year of T20, but people are taking it very seriously now," said Jeremy Snape, the former England one-day player who is performance coach for the Rajasthan Royals. "Five years later it is having a big impact on the game."
Off the field the talk is of reconciliation. Players who clashed while competing for their countries have been forced to get on or get out as they share dressing rooms with old foes. There was no greater rivalry than that between Graeme Smith and Warne. But at the end-of-tournament party, held at Mumbai's Grand Hyatt on Thursday night, the pair were seen swapping altogether nicer sentiments.
"So many different combinations have come together," said Warne. "We don't normally get to share ideas and methods and that has been one of the lasting memories for me."
There is one thing missing from the finals weekend - the home side. There were longer queues yesterday afternoon at screenings of the new Indiana Jones movie than there were at the Wankhede Stadium ticket office.
The IPL's decision to hike prices for the day did not help on that front, with the top tickets set at £140. A quick rethink led to a 50 per cent reduction. Swathes of empty seats do not look good on television, and looking good on screen is what really counts.
THE GOOD: The rejuvenation of Shane Warne: He has revelled in his role as leader and father figure to the unfancied Rajasthan Royals, whom he guided to surprise leadership of the group-stage table.
The crowds: It is no surprise that fans have flocked to the games, what has come as a shock is how they have swapped national allegiance for supporting their local franchise.
The money: The Indian Cricket Board are projected to make more than £40?million from the first IPL season as sponsorship has soared.
The cricket: In India the batsmen are kings and Brendon McCullum's 158 in the tournament's opening match set the bar. Sanath Jayasuriya, Adam Gilchrist and Shaun Marsh (right) have all reached three figures.
The glamour: From Bollywood actresses to the Washington Red Skin cheerleaders and glitzy after match parties, the IPL has aped Formula One in its pursuit of the opulent. 1. The racism charge. Two British cheerleaders made accusations of racism, claiming they were told they could not perform at a match because they were black.
THE BAD: The slap: Harbhajan Singh of the Mumbai Indians slapped India team-mate Shanthakumaran Sreesanth in the face after a match against the Kings XI Punjab. Harbhajan was later banned for the rest of the tournament.
The sulking: Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan never missed the chance to appear on camera while his side Kolkata Knight Riders were doing well. When their fortunes nosedived he was less conspicuous.
The arrogance: Heady with success the organisers are now talking about two IPL seasons a year. What about Test cricket?
The fickleness: Failure to qualify for the semi-finals left some doubting the futures of Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid, two true greats.
AND THE NUMBERS: 1,629 Fours
593 Sixes
67 Lowest total (Kolkata Knight Riders v Mumbai)
84.62 Win percentage for Shane Warne of the Rajasthan Royals
21 Balls for fastest fifty, by Yusuf Pathan (Rajasthan Royals)
31 Boundaries hit by Sanath Jayasuriya, the highest in the group stage.

Katrina Kaif has just returned from Egypt after shooting a song with her favourite co-star, Akshay Kumar, for the keenly awaited SINGH IS KINNG.
And while Katrina is delighted with the way the song has shaped up, she is even more charmed by Egypt and its culture. 'It's among the most beautiful countries I have visited - the pyramids, the temples and the landscape are absolutely exotic. I even enjoyed the barbecue dinner on a boat on the Nile. We shot in a number of places and I've come back with fond memories of my trip.'
Ask her about the song she shot, Jee Karda, she smiles, 'Wait and watch. It should be on air later this month. We shot at 4am every day to capture the light and it was scorching. To keep cool we would stay in shades and sip fruit juice or mint tea.'

After having tested many foreign voices, Alibaba gets to speak the desi language, courtesy John Abraham. Which only means that the lead ‘hero’ of the much awaited animated film Alibaba and the 40 Thieves will have John Abraham’s voice. The film is directed by Soumitra Ranade of Jajantaram Mamantram fame.
Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, Soumitra said, “We have John Abraham lending his voice for Alibaba, while Saurabh Shukla, Raza Murad, and Mukesh Tiwary do for other characters.”
Alibaba and the 40 Thieves is a story based on a boy called Chinku, who lives in Mumbai and is trans-migrated into Arabian Night’s tale. “The music of the film is given by a group called Three Brothers & a Violin. It’s expected to release by 2009,” added Soumitra.
It will be interesting to see how John’s voice sounds over Alibaba because he was among those actors whose debut films were dubbed by someone else. Yes, John’s voice was dubbed by a dubbing artist in his filmJism.

Govinda is all geared up to play a 40 year old virgin in an untitled venture directed by Jagmohan Mundhra. The film will be co-produced by Sanddeep Kapur and Anuj Sharma under Promodome and Sishty Creations.
Putting an end to the rumour about the film being made in English language, one of the producers Sanddeep Kapur informs, “The film loosely inspired by Hollywood comedy The 40 Year Old Virgin is a comic caper which will be made in Hindi.” He goes on to add, “We will have Amrita Rao playing the hot chick of UK based Govinda who plays a 40 year old virgin.”
Apart from Govinda and Amrita Rao, Anupam Kher and Shakti Kapoor will also star in the film. In fact, the cast and crew have already moved to London to shoot the first schedule. To which Sanddeep says, “We have zeroed in on London where 60% of the film will be shot and rest 40% will be in India.” Monty Sharma will be doing the music for the film and Pony Verma is the choreographer.
The film is expected to release this year

Subhash Ghai has worked with many big actors in his illustrious career. He is now all set to bring together the hit pair of Govinda and Sanjay Dutt together again in his forthcoming film.
Bollywood Hungama spoke with the Showman himself to get some more details. “Yes, this project is on the proposal stages .We have signed Govinda, but have yet to confirm Sanjay’s dates for this film. The film is titled Dil Mein Baji Guitar and would be directed by Hadi Ali Abrar, a new and talented director. He has got a brilliant script, full of comedy and emotions. So I liked the film.”
It may be recollected that Govinda and Sanjay Dutt were earlier seen in Mukta Arts’ Ek Aur Ek Gyarah, directed by David Dhawan. So we quizzed the Showman, how different is this film going to be? “This is a different script altogether. It’s a new kind of film and not on the lines of other films which Govinda and Sanju have done before. Besides, they do get along very well and would be playing friends in the film too,” says Mr. Ghai.
So when does the film go on floors? “We are yet to finalize the female cast. Music will be either by Pritam or Sajid-Wajid. The film should go on floors in July this year.”
Meanwhile, Ghai’s next magnum-opus Yuvraj is 75% complete and would release in October later this year coinciding with Mukta Arts’ 30th anniversary.
As they say there is simply no stopping the Showman.

Neha Dhupia shoots for R&B Star Ginuwine’s Music Video in London
0 comments Posted by org at 3:51 AMThe Bollywood beauty Neha Dhupia will be soon seen in an international music video of the famous American R&B (Rhythm and Blues) artiste Ginuwine. While these days, it is not very rare to hear of Bollywood actresses being invited to do international assignments, this is however a big achievement for Neha Dhupia who seems to be showing an upward trend in her career graph.
Elgin Baylor Lumpkin, Jr. better known by his stage name Ginuwine, is an American R&B singer and an occasional actor. Ginuwine has been nominated thrice for the American Music Awards in the category of ‘Favourite Male R&B Artiste’. With is next music video starring Neha Dhupia, Ginuwine makes a comeback after a short period of absence.
“I am super excited about the music video with Ginuwine. Getting an opportunity to feature in an international music video of a celebrated artiste like him is not an everyday story for Bollywood actresses. I feel extremely lucky to be a part of this project. Ginuwine was looking for an urban Indian face and had short listed four Indian actresses for his song ‘Baby’”, blushes Neha with immense humility in her tone.
Neha has finished shooting for the video, which will be released in India shortly. With this, Neha will surely become a recognized face amongst all R&B patrons across the globe.

Today is my daughter's Olympic Day at school. Her entire class travels by bus to a nearby school in order to compete in outdoor sporting events.
It's a fun, fun day but of course I'm just a little bit on edge. First of all, there's the bus ride. Who had peanut butter for breakfast? I don't wanna know.
Then, there's the assumption that the nurse and teacher brought my daughter's medication with them. My daughter has participated in Olympic Day since kindergarten and I've called each year to make sure they've got it covered.
The other big issue--the kids are asked to bring a "bag lunch." There is no refrigeration, so one guess what a lot of them bring? You got it. Peanut butter. So of course I wonder how that's going to go. According to the nurse, they even segregate the peanut-allergic kids at lunch time, just like in the caf. So that's good enough for me. And at this stage, my daughter is used to having special treatment at lunch, so it doesn't seem to bother her.
I've become a known quantity to the school, which has helped them get organized with regard to food allergies and field trips. Last year, the school nurse told me she was waiting for my call and so had all the info ready for me. The teacher was waiting for my call. They even sent a note home to reassure me. This year, I didn't call (my daughter has the same teacher as last year, since she's in a multi-age classroom) so I guess you could say the school has earned my trust. Still, I've got the cell phone attached to my body in case.
I don't plan to spend the day freaking out or anything--don't get me wrong. In fact, these events are probably good for me (as well as being a lot of fun for my daughter). From time to time, every parent of a food-allergic child (and let's face it, every parent in the world) has to make that leap of faith and trust that their child will be OK.
Maybe when Olympic Day is over, I can celebrate with that other ancient Greek tradition--a nice glass of wine.

It's felt by most members of Nagesh Kukunoor's Aashayein that this film would be John's turning point as an actor.
No stone is being left unturned to make sure John appears in the best light possible in this make-or-break film.
In this context it has now been decided to move the prestigious Aashayein forward by a couple of weeks, possibly to July 4 which is the date for Harman Baweja and Imran Khan's debut films.
Says a source, "Aashayein is crucial for both John and his director Nagesh Kukunoor. Both were banking heavily on their last projects. John on No Smoking which turned out to be a no-show and Nagesh on Bombay To Bangkok which was a fiasco. Both the actor and director feel Aashayein would be a new beginning for them."
But for John family always comes first. And now that his brother's wedding is days away he finds a lot of the attention that he would have ideally given to Aashayein is now being taken up by the wedding in the family.
Says a source, "Since Allan's wife is Romanian the wedding is in Romania. The arrangements therefore become doubly difficult. John's parents are too old and frail to manage the nitty-gritty.
Even Bipasha is shooting in Bangkok. That leaves John to supervise all the wedding plans. And Allan is his only brother. John wants to make it a memorable wedding."
It was therefore felt in the best interests of the film that the original release date June 20, be postponed by at least a couple of weeks.
Nagesh Kukunoor's associate and co-producer Elahi Hiptoola confirms these developments. "Yes, we did feel that we needed a couple of weeks extra, what with John's brother's marriage.
So yes we're moving to July, probably the first week. Aashayein is a film that needs careful nurturing. We don't mind waiting a bit. But we don't want the release to go wrong."
Interestingly John has no love interest in Aashayein. There's a new girl Sonal Saigal to begin with. But the female lead is played by Anaitha Nair one of the Chak De India girls. John and she share an unusual equation, quite like Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Sarkar Raj.

For a certain scene in Sunny Deol-directed 'The Man', Shilpa Shetty had to slap her co-star Sudhanshu Pandey. And if the latter is to be believed, the actress was very reluctant to do so.
'It was an emotional scene where I was supposed to console her and she was required to slap me in a fit of rage. But Shilpa was so reluctant and scared. She had to be literally convinced to slap me to get the shot right,' Sudhanshu, a singer, model and actor, told.
Sudhanshu said that he had to ultimately hold her hand and make her slap him to be more comfortable with the shot. 'It was funny as she still couldn't do it. But since she had no option, she did it very lightly,' he quipped.
The actor, who featured in Sanjay Gupta's film 'Dus Kahaniyaan', was in the capital to attend the launch of an All Sports Bar.
Year 2008 has proved to be lucky for Sudhanshu, who became a father for the second time earlier this month and also has some big banner films lined up for release.
Talking about his forthcoming projects, Sudhanshu said: ''Alibaug', 'The Man' and 'Singh is King' are in the pipeline and I am really excited.'
Sudhanshu, a former member of the music group Band of Boys, has sung in Sanjay Gupta's 'Alibaug', where he plays a business tycoon.
'Yes, I have sung in 'Alibaug'. It was Sanjay (Gupta) who dragged me into it and the experience was fantastic,' he said, making it clear that he would never get associated with a music band, however.
The actor, who calls himself a 'simple, focussed and a family man', is looking for a name for his newborn son. 'It has become difficult to decide on a good name.'

The Phoonk De habit is passé with many Bollywood stars who have begun to put their health before their nicotine addiction.
We don’t know how much of it actually is the Ramadoss effect, but the fact is that actors and directors from Bollywood have genuinely begun to say no to smoking.
The first one to kick the cancer stick was Saif Ali Khan , who did not quit smoking so much out of will as out of sheer compulsion of maintaining his health after a minor heart attack last year. Saif was hospitalized for a few days and vowed never to touch cigarettes again. However, of late, he has forgotten his vow and has begun lighting up on rare occasions.
Aamir Khan , who has struggled with his nicotine addiction for years, shocked many of his fans late last year when he disclosed on his blog that he had resumed smoking heavily after a long hiatus due to nervousness before the release of Taare Zameen Par . Aamir also made a New Year resolution to kick the habit from Jan 1, 2008. However, he failed to do so, but finally managed to live up to his promise after a few weeks. Since then, the actor is not learnt to have resumed smoking.
Ajay Devgan has been a heavy smoker for many years and he never even pretended to quit cigarettes. So heavily was the actor into addiction that it had actually begun to make his body and face look frail. Ajay’s body gave him an alarming jolt a few weeks back when he fell ill and finally decided to mend his ways and kick the butt. The actor is now looking forward to recovering his health.

All those who have seen the rushes of Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic are going gung ho about Amisha Patel.
Apparently the actress is looking wow in a glamorous new avtaar. More than her look, there’s plenty of skin show, but no one is complaining because the actress has worked on her body and is looking very hot and happening. In fact, we hear that with this film, she is planning to revamp her onscreen image from a girl next door to a sexy siren.
With a new boyfriend Kanav, who is ready to lay the world at her feet and now with her new sexy look, Amisha seems to be heading at the right direction. Now do we see Vikram Bhatt raising his eyebrows?

Bollywood fashions of the future will include a Henna overdose, heavy eyeliner and a huge evil-looking collar, according to July's Love Story 2050. Why does star Priyanka Chopra's "futuristic makeover" involve looking like an early 80s diva, crossed with Cruella De Vil? But there are tight black leather pants involved as well, so it's a future we can live with. Below the fold, a dozen new stills and a clip of Priyanka's costar Harman Bajewa dancing with robots.
The new stills and wallpapers, mostly come from the movie's new website, which director Harry Bajewa (Harman's dad) says is the most futuristic website they could make. (It has Java!) And here's that awesome dancing clip. I'm still beyond excited for this movie.

Food Allergies--There's No Such Thing as a Free Lunch (or Breakfast)
0 comments Posted by org at 12:04 PMSince I've been in an extended stay hotel for awhile now (it's the last week--hooray!), I've been thinking about the "included" breakfasts that many hotels offer to their guests.
The hotel I'm staying in offers this each day, as does other places I've stayed such as the Hampton Inn.
I've always thought that free food is a good thing, generally, especially with little kids. When they're hungry for breakfast, they're hungry NOW.
Of course, when you add food allergies to the mix, it gets a wee bit more complicated. When you're dealing with a nut allergy, baked goods are out. Also, we've had questions about the cereal served, since sometimes it's placed in clear canisters and does not have a label. By now, I know most kids' cereal ingredients by heart, but sometimes I don't. I've found that hotel staff are helpful and will let me see the cereal box if they still have it. Of course, then, I obsess about the scoop. Let's put it this way, if they were serving Reese's cereal next to the Cheerios, I'd skip cereal altogether. (This has never happened, but ya never know!)
Food allergy parents are well aware that many times we have to skip foods rather than run the risk of a reaction, but wouldn't it be nice if we could have our needs addressed in the "free breakfast" portion of our hotel stay. On the one hand, I feel like I should just handle the food myself and not ask anything of a hotel. On the other hand, we're paying customers. Food allergies are becoming an common problem. Why shouldn't we expect hotels to get clued in?
One time I stayed in a college town that offered a "Japanese breakfast" along with the rest of the more traditional fare. Clearly, this establishment had identified a group of guests with a specific food preference. It got me thinking that food allergies could be addressed in a similar fashion.
We should be able to ask for "safe zones" when partaking of the hotel breakfast. How about it? What do you think? And have any of you tried this approach?
