Amrita Rao's New Photoshoot 2010

If the latest buzz is to be believed, filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali is planning something really extraordinary these days. Believe it or not, but Bhansali is gearing up to cast top-notch actresses – Aishwarya, Preity and Kareena – together in one of his upcoming projects.

Reports reveal that Bhansali is keen to rope in Ash, Preity and Kareena together in lead roles for his most special venture till date, titled ‘Heera Mandi’, apparently based on the famous red light area in the walled city of Lahore.

It may be recalled that the filmmaker had announced ‘Heera Mandi’ sometime back, but later dumped the idea of making the film. However, now Bhansali is reportedly decided to start working on the project as soon as his much-anticipated film ‘Guzaarish’, starring Hrithik and Aishwarya, is complete.

Grapevine has it that Sanjay initially wanted Madhuri Dixit, Rani Mukherjee and Sonam Kapoor for lead roles. Nevertheless, watching Ash, Preity and Kareena sharing screen space would also be a one of a kind experience. What say!

What the f8ck, let me drink it anyway

I love summer. Living in Chicago, I've learned to savor the heat and humidity. Those January winds make a lasting impression so no complaints here as the temperature rises!

Summer also means having to adjust how we cope with nut allergies and all food allergies. For the non-temperate parts of the country, food is being prepared in different ways and in different venues than winter.

Many of us will be heading out to Memorial Day Weekend festivities, so now's the time to get ready to handle summer's new food allergy challenges.

Here are a few things to look out for:

Grills. While grilled foods are some of the safest options for all food-allergic people because of their simplicity and lack of sauces, outdoor grills present a HUGE cross-contact risk. Marinades may contain many types of allergens including nuts and the shared grill presents many risks for reaction.

If you love grilled foods and want your allergic family members to enjoy them at a party, consider bringing your own portable grill (but be sure to keep it only for your family's use.) A Smokey Joe grill is easy to transport to any location. Memorial Day sales are an ideal time to pick up one of these. You can find them at most stores that sell grills and barbecue equipment.

Barbecue sauce. I love, love, love barbecue sauce but it presents a high risk for nut allergies and some other food allergies as well (wheat and soy come to mind.) The following is my recipe for nut-free barbecue sauce. Homemade BBQ sauce tastes great and is surprisingly easy to make. I use Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce in my recipe--be aware that Worcestershire may contain anchovies. If you deal with allergies to these ingredients, substitute some extra salt and a shot of lemon juice.

Nut-Free BBQ Sauce
This sauce must be heated for a short while to mellow the onion and garlic--it keeps up to a week when refrigerated. Brush it onto meat or chicken at the last minute or it may scorch.

2 cups ketchup (I always use Heinz)
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (I use Lea and Perrins) or soy sauce (I use Kikoman)
1 tbsp chili powder or to taste
1/2 cup dry red wine or water
1/4 cup vinegar, either wine vinegar or rice vinegar
1/2 cup minced fresh onion
1 tsp minced garlic
Salt and black pepper to taste

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary. When not in use, keep covered in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Dips and dressings. Chip dip and salad dressing may contain nut oils or ingredients. Always read labels if they are store bought before serving to an allergic person. If homemade, avoid them. You have no real way of knowing if cross-contact occured or what's really in it. When in doubt, do without.

Desserts, especially ice cream. Unless you made these yourself, steer clear. Ice cream is high risk for nut allergies because commercial brands are generally made on shared equipment--a fact not usually reflected on the label. It's better to bake your own desserts and bring them to a party. If you're looking for nut-free, egg-free and dairy-free desserts, check out "The Food Allergy Mama's Baking Book." Kelly, aka Food Allergy Mama is a Chicago mom who knows how to seriously bake. Her book has unbelievably wonderful recipes that taste and look delish. Go to her website to order directly: http://www.foodallergymama.com. You can also find her book at Amazon.com -- I also found it in-store at my local Borders.

Summer is right around the corner (in Chicago it feels like it's here already with our near 90 degree temps) and that means the onset of the outdoor festival season.

Of course we know that any outdoor fest that focuses on food (I'm thinking "Taste of Chicago" or "Taste of Anytown" for that matter) is most likely off-limits for us. Most of us accept that, even if we don't like it.

But what if the focus of the event isn't traditionally food-focused? I just found out about a peanut theme for an outdoor sidewalk sale days in the downtown section of a Chicago suburb. Yep, that's right--"Everything's Peanuts" Sidewalk Sale days was scheduled to hand out bags of peanuts to all outdoor fest attendees. For those of you who don't live in the Midwest, let me tell you that Sidewalk Sales days in the summer are much-anticipated events. For folks in our climate, (who can't enjoy the outdoor weather for most of the year) this is a fun community event.

As someone with a child who struggles to avoid contact with peanuts, obviously this did not sound like a very inclusive event to me. Recent studies show that peanut and tree nut allergy about tripled in 10 years in children. Peanut allergy is on the rise in adults as well. The other problem with peanut allergy is that contact reactions are so common and peanut dust can pose an inhalant risk. Bags of peanuts would create a fair amount of peanut dust that could be spread around the event and in some cases, breathed in. It just isn't a great idea.

Well, a local (and vocal) food allergy support group started making some phone calls and sending e-mails to this particular suburb's local officials and guess what--peanuts are out! They've decided not to serve them after all.

For anyone who thinks their voice doesn't matter on issues of food allergy advocacy, this story is a lesson that persistent, polite advocacy can work. You can't sit back and think "One day they're gonna get it." Not unless you speak up.

Education is key. I saw many of the e-mails that were sent via our local support group and they explained the risk of reaction and problematic nature of peanut allergy. Many people don't consider this when they plan an event. The other thing that helped was that many parents pointed out how serving peanuts on this wide scale was somewhat akin to having a "stairs only" building that would only allow people who could climb stairs to enter.

Some people may feel that the minority (those with peanut allergies) shouldn't dictate the food served. In this case, I feel that the community nature of this event dictated that community issues (food allergy) should be reasonably addressed. This wasn't a private club event or private location event for members only. It was open to all members of this particular community and the surrounding communities. For that reason, I think they made a great choice and I applaud all the parents who spoke up on behalf of their children.

When we make strides like this, we should make a point of attending these events in order to show our support, both moral and financial. The same goes for peanut-free baseball games. If they are offered in your town--go! Show that these events are needed and wanted. We should also thank the officials who make peanut-free events possible. When we all work together and tone down the rhetoric, we can have an event that is enjoyable to all members of our communities.

Both Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif have finally decided to marry in 2010 and 2012 respectively. Katrina Kaif is younger by 20 years from Salman Khan. Salman is 40 years old and Katrina is just 25 years.


Katrina Kaif has revealed that she wants to marry in 2012. But as a remark on the sets of Dance reality show while promoting Veer movie, Salman Khan said that he promised to his father to get married in current year 2010.

Katrina and Salman's choices are same in many respects. Both Katrina and Salman prefer traditional style of marriage.

When Katrina Kaif was hospitalised recently, Salman's mom took care of her. Katrina along with Salman's sister also visited Ajmer Dargah before the relases of Veer to wish for success of movie.

Katrina gave a surprise visit to Salman during his Veer preview. But the main problem is the set of dates that they have prioritized for themselves.

So will Salman Khan  get married in 2010 as per his promise to his father or will wait till 2012.

Vinod Kambli may not have done as well as Sachin Tendulkar in cricket and had to play a role of the second fiddle on the ground but when it comes to owning a stunner for a wife, he is sure more than a match to the Little Master.

Dressed up to the hilt, this gorgeous lady looks no less than most actresses and hot models today and I am sure that if she decides to star on big screen someday, Indian men will surely welcome her overnight.
