Deepika Padukone – Katrina Kaif’s cold war, Jhanvi Kapoor’s Bollywood debut – take a look at the top 5 newsmakers of the week

This week was all about women power in Bollywood. The big news was Sridvei’s daughter Jhanvi Kapoor will make her big Bollywood debut with Karan Johar’s film. There were several reports of Mallika Sherawat being punched and robbed in Paris, Kareena Kapoor Khan’s sudden change of opinion on her supposed Bhabhi Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone’s and Katrina’s cold war. Let’s take a look at five newsmakers of the week:

Hrithik – Kangana case

After hurling allegations at each other there was finally a confirmation that the case is closed. The verdict of the same is out and it states that since the department couldn’t find hard evidence, the case has been closed. But all this was turned upside down a day later when Hrithik’s legal team issued a statement saying the legal war is far from over. The statement reads, “Media reports which suggest that the investigation into the Hrithik -Kangana emails is closed, totally false. A section of the media in connivance with Ms Ranaut’s lawyer have sought to disseminate this false information. The investigation in fact continues and Mr Saxena (Joint Commissioner of Police, Crime) has informed Mahesh Jethmalani, Senior Counsel, advising Mr Roshan that ‘the case is not yet closed. Investigation is still going on. It is categorically asserted that there is unimpeachable evidence to suggest that there was no relationship of any kind between Mr Roshan and Ms Ranaut and that Ms Ranaut persistently hounded Mr. Roshan on emails with the intention to entice him into a relationship.” Wonder what twist next awaits in this never ending case. Someone please make a movie on this.

Jhanvi Kapoor’s debut

Since the time Jhanvi Kapoor’s instagram caught the eye of everyone, she has been in news day in and day out. It was reported that she’ll be making her debut with Karan Johar. And now Jhanvi’s father Boney Kapoor has cleared the air as he said, “Yes, Karan has been talking to us about a film for Jhanvi and we’ve given consent. But we don’t know which project it would be. Since Karan has recently acquired the remake rights of Sairat it is being presumed that our daughter would be launched in this project.” So, will it be Sairat remake or not, we’ll know once Karan Johar makes an official announcement.

Mallika Sherawat gets punched and robbed in Paris

Just a month after Kim Kardashian was robbed outside her apartment, there were reports of Mallika Sherawat being punched, abused and robbed outside her apartment. As per reports, she and her French boyfriend were attacked by a group of masked men and were attacked with tear gas. But a day later she was seen chilling in Geneva as can be seen in a video posted by her on her Twitter account. Something is indeed fishy!

Kareena’s opinion on Katrina

After calling Katrni Kaif her ‘bhabhi’ in the last season of Koffee With Karan, Kareena Kapoor Khan now thinks she isn’t worthy enough to be Ranbir’s wife. Kareena Kapoor had appeared on Neha Dhupia‘s popular podcast- #NoFilter Neha a few days back. She was asked to choose between Ranbir’s exes Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif, her answer was “NONE”! She doesn’t think either of them were good enough for Ranbir. Well, we won’t blame her as Ranbir is single now and as said by the Michael Corleone, in Godfather, “Never go against the Family”.

Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif share cold vibes

Bollywood excels at cold wars. And the latest and the biggest one right now is shared between Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone. There were several reports that the two avoided each other at Lux Golden Rose Awards. Our source has EXCLUSIVELY told us that it was Kat, who decided to make a late entry. Miss Kaif was only present for her performance and award. As soon as her Kala Chashma performance left everyone breathless (including Mr Khan), the actress was awarded. Post this, she made an exit.


Hey Sonam Kapoor, fans loved you in Neerja the most

It was the day when Sonam’s debut movie Saawariya had hit the screens nine years back and we decided to have a look at Sonam’s filmography. The actress has done some immensely good projects like Neerja and Raanjhana in her past and we wanted to know which of her character was loved the most so far. Was it the bubbly physiotherapist Dr Mrinalini from Khoobsurat or was it the head strong Neerja Bhanot from the biopic Neerja? It was like a treat for her fans to go through the actress’s journey and we are sure they voted for her with all their heart. Also Read: Sonam Kapoor goes public with her boyfriend Anand Ahuja – view pic

We all expected Neerja to get the maximum amount of votes since that was the movie that touched all of our hearts. And as expected it was the winner eventually.The biopic on late air hostess Neerja Bhanot received the maximum number of votes with 64%. The movie was later followed by Raanjhana which received 20% of total votes. Yes that’s a huge difference. Seems like Neerja was ultimate favourite for majority of her fans and it did deserve to win this poll. The movie which received third position was Khoobsurat with 11% votes, followed by Aisha with 3% and Dolly ki Doli with 1% respectively. Also Read: Sonam Kapoor: I don’t think Shah Rukh Khan wants to work with me

Well even Sonam will agree that Neerja was her best performance till date and this is the reason why it was one of the most successful movies released this year. This movie paved the way for women centric films in Bollywood and viewers literally thanked Sonam for making the character of Neerja come alive on big screen in such a beautiful way . We hope that the actress does more such roles in future and we are sure even Sonam will love to surprise her fans with more such stuffs.

Kareena Kapoor Khan is 8 months pregnant, but nothing seems to stop her. The actress has been attending events, talking to the media and even doing photo shoots before her child arrives. Kareena wants to break the stereotypes in our society and she has been totally successful in her plan. Generally after 6 months of pregnancy, women tend to restrict their public appearances.  They tend to hide their baby bump. But Kareena is not one of those women! She loves flaunting her bump and once again she has left us speechless! As we sat down with the papers today, we were surprised to see a pregnant Kareena Kapoor Khan on the cover of HT Brunch. The black and white image of Kareena was the best thing we saw this week, but that wasn’t it… Kareena has done a full black and white maternity shoot with the magazine and we are loving it.

In one set of pictures, we see Kareena looking gorgeous in a white maxi. We can see how loving, caring and attentive she is towards her baby from now.

Kajol: Women look naturally sexy in peek-a-boo saris

Kajol doesn’t believe in mincing words. And can be quite ruthless about pointing out what she believes are her own mistakes as well. For example, she admits that her wig in Dushman is something that she’d like to forget or that she’s lazy when it comes to her beauty routine. That’s just how she is. Here goes…

Since becoming a mother, has your beauty routine changed?
Not really, it’s become just lesser with time. I’m not saying that it was complicated earlier, but it’s definitely become simpler. I feel sometimes I don’t have the time to do everything that I just want to. Or maybe, I just don’t have the patience to do so. I think I’m just lazy!

When you debuted, you didn’t have to look good all the time. Today, with the paparazzi and the fashion policing culture, there’s a change in people’s perspective. Comment.
I think people’s perspective has changed because society has changed. Now, there’s such a big flood of information that you don’t have a choice but see certain things. If you go online, you will automatically get a variety of choices available, internationally speaking as well, and you automatically hold them to those standards. So it’s an automated process within us. It’s not something different or difficult to understand. It’s a change that was probably necessary. We never worked that hard earlier! (Laughs out loud) Now, we work much harder.

You adapted to the change really well…
I think you have to, right? They say that the change is the only thing which is constant in life. So you have to able to adjust to that.

Is age just a number to you?
Honestly, it’s not a number to me. Age is a concept. Age is a feeling. I have seen little children who have old eyes and they have this way of looking like little old men even though they are 4-5 years old. I think age is more about the feeling — the look in the eyes, the way of walking, it’s the weariness of body and spirit that kind of comes across.

Are you worried about the effects of ageing?
Not really! Maybe, at some point of time, I must have thought about it. Then, my doctor recommended Olay which I’ve been endorsing for a few years now. But honestly, I have always had such great role models in front of me like my mother and my grandmother. They have been stunning, beautiful and active, wonderful women. It’s not a consideration that I pay too much attention to.

Are you more conscious of maintaining a diet today?
Of course, I am. I’m definitely more conscious about my diet than I was earlier. I’m more in charge of it, so I plan it. I’m obsessed about it. I’m very conscious about what I eat, where I eat and how much I eat. And I work out as well.

What’s in your make-up bag?
My make-up kit is really simple. It mostly contains a nicely coloured fruity lip balm because I love flavours and a kajal pencil for sure.

Describe your skincare routine.
I drink a lot of water and I think that is very, very important. We minimise the importance of water in our lives. I wash my face at least twice a day and I have to go to sleep with a clean face.

What’s your go-to look for a red carpet event?
Nothing in particular. I don’t have a go-to choice. When my team gives me options, I choose it on one condition. I have to feel that I’m looking the best. I have to believe that when I am looking in the mirror, I can tell myself, ‘Oh my God, I’m looking gorgeous.’

What do you think is sexy, beauty-wise?
Saris are sexy. Women look naturally sexy in peek-a-boo saris. (Smiles)

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve tried in the name of beauty?
I would rather play safe than sorry. So, I haven’t tried too many unusual things.

So you’ve never had any beauty disasters?
Of course I have! (Laughs) But that doesn’t mean that I have to try something completely out of the way. I feel my wig in Dushman was not the best wig in the world for sure! (Bursts out laughing) That wig is something which I look back and I’m like (makes a face). At that point of time, I really thought it worked. I don’t know if I believe that today.

The Global Citizen India Festival 2016 took place last night and we have to say that it was fabulous. The musical extravaganza ended with Coldplay performing for the first time in India. However, that wasn’t just the purpose of the event. The show was organised with an aim to create awareness about the socio-economic issues prevalent in India such as poverty, gender inequality, illiteracy, lack of clean drinking water, unsanitary conditions and much more. The government of India along with NGO – Global Citizen organised this event and we have to say it was an eye opener for many people. Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Vidya Balan, Sonam Kapoor and even PM Narendra Modi spoke about these issues and took a pledge to make India a better country. But for the entertainment of the crowd, a host of celeb performances were planned including acts by Shraddha Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha, Ranveer Singh, Jay Z, Demi Lovato, Coldplay and a few others. The night was made memorable by each passing minute, however there were 7 instances which you cannot miss. Check em’ out here:

# Shah Rukh Khan’s magical performance…

Though SRK was not supposed to perform, the actor took centre stage to introduce and welcome A R Rahman. But to call him up, he put a small act where he performed a few of ARR’s songs. Chaiyya Chaiyya, Jiya Jale and Sadda Haq were a few songs that he sang, leaving everyone spellbound.

# Jay Z’s big surprise…

Shah Rukh Khan came on to the stage once again. This time he welcomed Jay Z, but to his surprise, the singer had a trick up his sleeve. Jay Z started rapping on Shah Rukh Khan’s Chaiyya Chaiyya, leaving the crowd scratching their head in amusement. He then rapped to the Punjabi track – Mundiya tu bach ke. Cool na?

# Ranveer Singh’s electrifying act…

We already knew that Ranveer Singh was going to perform on Ude Dil Befikre, Nashe Di Chadh Gayi Hain and Malhari. However, his energy was so electric that it actually took the show to another level.

# Shah Rukh and Sachin’s hilarious banter

Before calling Coldplay on to the stage, SRK called Sachin Tendulkar. The actor asked the cricketer about his school visit with Coldplay. Sachin mentioned how they had played a game of cricket with the children during their visit. SRK went on to ask him if he taught Chris how to bat during their outing, but Sachin revealed, “No, in fact he taught me how to play the guitar.” The actor laughed and said, “Great, next time I am having a concert, you will be my lead guitarist.” The cricketer laughed and replied back, “Ok, but only if you open the innings with me when I play cricket next time around.” The crowd burst out laughing, but SRK was left red faced.

# Coldplay’s act

So Coldplay finally came on stage and as soon as they started performing, the whole atmosphere changed. The energy, enthusiasm and love was seen in the crowd and Coldplay set the stage on fire with their act. They start with A Head Full Of Dreams and followed it up with Yellow and Paradise. Lead singer and guitarist – Chris Martin even greeted everyone with a Namastey. Cool na? But that’s not it! When the band performed Magic, you could feel everyone getting goosebumps. Cool na?

# AR Rahman and Coldplay’s duet

Chris Martin called upon A R Rahman to end the show. The Oscar winner came on stage and recited Vande Mataram. Chris played the guitar to give him the tune and their jam session was really cool. The crowd joined in and they all sang along. But when Chris sang Vande Mataram, everyone was shocked. But it felt really fabulous!

# Chris ends the show with Channa Mereya…

After Vande Mataram, Chris wasn’t yet finished with his surprises. The Coldplay lead singer and guitarist sang Ae Dil Hai Mushkil‘s Channa Mereya to bring an end to the show. When he started off, people were confused, but as he started singing, people just fell in love with Coldplay and Chris more than ever…

Alia Bhatt‘s love life is one of the most spoken about aspects in her life. After her performance and movies, her love life is the second most reported thing in the media currently. But, Alia Bhatt has never openly admitted to dating any of the guys she was linked up with. She has reportedly dated Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra since she started acting. However, the actress has always maintained that they all are her friends. So who is or was Alia’s boyfriend? Well Varun just answered this question on Koffee with Karan and you will be shocked. It seems that Alia was dating a guy from Dubai..

No seriously, Varun revealed on Koffee with Karan last night that Alia was dating Ali (Dadarkar) from Dubai. For those of you who don’t know, BollywoodLife had revealed to you that the actress had a boyfriend before dating Sidharth Malhotra. He was Ali. The actress had never accepted that he was her boyfriend. But with Varun’s revelation, we now know that Ali was very much her lover. Ali had recently come back into her life too. Post that Sid and Alia’s issues cropped up. However, looks like Ali’s chapter is closed as Varun mentioned she was dating him earlier.

alia bhatt ali dadarkar

Basically Karan Johar wanted to know if Varun and Arjun Kapoor (his guests on the show last night) ever felt awkward that they dated the same girl – Alia. Varun and Arjun both denied ever being in a relationship with the actress. In fact, they even mentioned the downs in their friendship had nothing to do with any girl. Their work and career had left them with very less time to connect, which had created a gap between them. Talking about Alia in particular, Varun mentioned that this was unfair and disrespectful towards her. But having said that, the actor mentions how the actress is just a friend for both him and Arjun. And coz they had done back-to-back films with her, the whole rumour was made up. ALSO READ – Koffee with Karan: Varun Dhawan and Arjun Kapoor’s hilarious revelations will make you ROFL

So after both of them denied dating Alia, Karan asked them who was actually dating Alia? Varun revealed that he knew that Alia was dating a guy from Dubai – Ali (Dadarkar) earlier. When they were further asked about the rumours of Alia dating Sidharth, Arjun said that he is happy for whoever she is dating. But both of them did not comment on her relationship with Sidharth.

Where was Ranveer Singh while GF Deepika Padukone was chilling with Coldplay’s Chris Martin? View pic

Looks like someone bonded really well at the after party of Global Citizen Festival! Deepika Padukone, our desi babe going to Hollywood now was spotted chatting away with Coldplay’s frontman Chris Martin and it sure was quite a sight! As you all know by now, the Global Citizen Festival, held on November, 19, i.e. Saturday was quite a rage. Most of the folks went crazy and couldn’t stop swaying to the tunes of the British band’s brilliant music. To add more awesomeness to the event, the English singer even teamed up with legendary musician, AR Rahman on stage as they sang away to some really cool numbers, including Maa Tujhe Salaam and Channa Mereya. I know right, isn’t that crazy?

My rant for making Chris sing Channa Mereya can go on and on. However, there is some scoop that we received on how DP and the frontman made for some fine conversation at the after party. But where was Ranveer Singh during all this? As you already know, Singh and Deepika’s affair has been the talk of the town. However, he seemed amiss when the Padmavati actress was chilling away with Martin. While a throng of celebrities attended the after party of Global Citizen festival, held at Shah Rukh Khan’s mansion, Mannat, a lot of them bonded with the British singer. A leading tabloid reported that Deepika and Chris hit it off really well. Wearing a white tank top and ripped denims, the diva was caught in the act, as she intently discussed stuff with Martin. Soon, the tables turned as she became the intent listener as Chris and Farhan’s conversation took a musical turn.

DEEPIKA-2112016

Since both of them are singers and in the field of music, there was a lot of music talk that occurred between Farhan Akhtar and Chris Martin. The pictures itself are proof of how crazy and awesome the Global Citizen festival was. During all this conversation switch, Mr Singh was constantly missing in action. We know pretty well that the Befikre actor was also present at the after party, so what kept him away from his bae? Honestly, the part with DP and Chris’ tête-à-tête rendezvous is quite the highlight. Why wouldn’t it be? Just as Priyanka Chopra, even Padukone is flying sky high with her Hollywood career. Socialising with international celebs is quite the kind of add on that would help Deepika cultivate more contacts and reach. As you can see the picture above, it’s clicked from Mannat, where the mad bash was held. We already shared the celebrity names who attended the party but incase you missed it, you can always find it here.

We’re guessing that after Sonam Kapoor, perhaps it’s Deepika Padukon’s chance to be on Coldplay’s next video? While we’re not suggesting that Deepika and Ranveer should always be together because they are a couple, it would’ve been nice to get a click of the two of them together at the party. What are your thoughts on this? Tell us in the comments section below! Stay tuned to this space for we’ll bring hot scoop and more gossips on the same!


This TV actor’s unquenchable sexual appetite leaves his wife worried

While consummation scenes on TV end up being a laughing matter (more often than not), intimacy issues in real life are far from hilarious. It seems there is trouble in paradise for a TV couple due to an issue as common as sexual incompatibility. In this case, the wife is unable to meet the sexual appetite of her husband, which is higher than she had hoped for. The beautiful actress is adored by her fans and is regarded as a power-packed performer. Her husband is also doing a big budget show on TV. While everything seems hunky dory on the surface, the problem is plaguing the actress deeply. The girl apparently has confided it to a few friends.

As per a little birdie, the girl is worried about her husband’s need for sex, which cannot be matched by her. She comes home late from shoots at a time when her husband is not there. She obviously does it as she is too tired and meeting him would mean a ‘tiring’ session in bed. We can understand that after shooting daily for 12-14 hours, no one would be in the mood quite often. Further on, he is also quite kinky. This has shocked the girl, who now feels her man might look for greener pastures outside.

The actress is unable to discuss this with her family as their involvement in her marriage was quite marginal. It seems the guy’s father developed a fondness for her and decided that she was quite perfect for his son. Can you guess who is the couple?

 

Movie this week: Dear Zindagi

$

This Friday is most awaited because after many months, we will again get to see the hottest Khan on the big screen – Shah Rukh Khan. A slice of life film that will not only promises to entertain us but refresh us as well. Let us tell you what the promise actually is…

Film: Dear Zindagi
Director: Gauri Shinde
Star cast: Shah Rukh Khan, Alia Bhatt
Synopsis: Alia plays a girl haggard by relationships. She is losing her mind over who is best for her and takes the help of a life coach, Shah Rukh Khan who just pushes her towards the right direction. So does she find the ONE? You will have to watch the film for that of course.

Why watch it? That’s not the question one should be asking. In fact, this is one film everyone should watch if it delivers on its promise. How often do you get to see a slice of life film? In fact, it seems this film will resonate more with the youngster who are clueless about relationships. Does the proverbial ‘ONE’ exists or it’s just a fable? We don’t know about you but Alia might find him. In the process, you might just like the film.

Then there is Shah Rukh Khan. There aren’t enough words in the world to describe what this man does to us. One look at him and our world goes round and round. Especially when he does films like Dear Zindagi. Playing his age, putting the actor SRK before the superstar SRK and flashes that disarming smile every minute… Sigh! Anyway, watching SRK on screen is always a delight and the biggest reason to try this film out.

The songs may not have clicked in a big way but the Takes have been hugely appreciated. Alia in a film is a pleasure to watch. There are hardly such good actresses in the industry and she is definitely one. Her act in Udta Punjab was outstanding and that makes us doubly excited about Dear Zindagi.

Now tell us your reason to watch it.

There obviously can’t be any grander launch pad than bagging a Karan Johar film – Alia Bhatt’s debut being the best example. She made her stunning debut with KJo’s Student Of The Year and look at her now – she’s grown up to become this reigning actress who’s already seen working with Shah Rukh Khan within 4 years of her career span. Now that’s how Karan mentors you and makes sure you grow bigger and bigger with every passing film. But guess despite this success ratio, the upcoming brigade of Sara and Jhanvi aren’t really interested in taking the infamous SOTY legacy forward and we tell you why…

First, Sara Ali Khan was considered opposite Tiger Shroff for the upcoming sequel – Student Of Year 2 where reports even confirmed that she’s almost bagged the deal. However, much to Karan and everyone’s disappointment, Sara turned it down with insiders suggesting that she doesn’t want to become a mere addition to the already famous troop led by Alia Bhatt. In the sense, she fears being outshadowed by Alia considering Alia will always remain as Karan’s first priority…

However, Jhanvi’s worries seem to be slightly different from Sara’s given that she’s pretty much ready to make her Bollywood debut with a Karan Johar film, but not with Student Of The Year 2 as her father Boney Kapoor had recently confirmed, “Yes, Karan has been talking to us about a film for Jhanvi and we’ve given consent. But we don’t know which project it would be. Since Karan has recently acquired the remake rights of Sairat it is being presumed that our daughter would be launched in this project.” Also read: Jhanvi Kapoor to be launched by Karan Johar, confirms Boney Kapoor!

Now apart from these respective reasons, the other possibility why Jhanvi and Sara both could be so disinterested in making their debut with Student Of The Year 2 is coz this sequel is a two heroine project. Yes! Karan had himself clarified that unlike the prequel which had two heroes( Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra) the sequel will have two heroines vying for one guy (Tiger Shroff). So probably, that’s the reason why Sara and Jhanvi are backing out from SOTY 2 for they obviously would want their first film to be a solo heroine project. Fair enough, no?

On that note, keep watching this space for more updates on Sara and Jhanvi’s Bollywood debut, right here only on BollywoodLife.

Salman Khan DEMANDS changes in Kabir Khan’s Tubelight climax – read details!

Not so long ago reports suggested that Salman Khan had a major fallout with his Tubelight director Kabir Khan. And while Salman has resumed work on the film we have some fresh update on Tubelight. Apparently Salman isn’t very pleased with the climax of his film and has asked for it to be scrapped. Salman wants Kabir to reshoot the climax and better it. Will Kabir oblige? A source told BollywoodLife that Salman wants to redo the climax of the film as he is not convinced about it right now. In fact Khan who has a super packed schedule has demanded that Kabir recreate Manali in Mumbai if need be. While people close to the actor are trying to make him understand that it i not possible logistically to create Manali in Mumbai, he is not ready to listen to anybody at the moment. We will have to wait and watch if Salman’s team can manage to squeeze time for the reshoot or if Kabir will take in Salman’s suggestion and actually rework on the end.

Salman will be seen with Bollywood debutant, Chinese actress Zhu Zhu in Tubelight. The film also features Khan’s younger brother Sohail in a prominent role. The Indo-Chinese film we hear will focus on Salman’s journey from being a slow, dimwitted guy to a sharp officer and his love story with Zhu Zhu.

Sometime back buzz was that Salman has found himself in a sticky situation. While the Dabanng hero will start filming for Ali Abbas Zafar’s Tiger Zinda Hai with Katrina Kaif, he also has two offers from his own siblings. The actor is torn between Alvira Khan’s movie which will be a remake of a film written by Salim Khan and Arbaaz Khan Dabangg 3. While he is yet to green light any of these projects he has also been approached for a cameo on Judwaa remake featuring Varun Dhawan, Jacqueline Fernandez and Tapsee Pannu. The actor we hear is also keen on signing Race 3 where he will be playing the negative lead. With Salman Khan now asking for changes in Tubelight, we bet there will be a ripple effect on all his future projects too. Especially since Khan’s schedule is literally packed.

Akshay Kumar’s look in Rajnikanth’s 2.0: 5 crazy thoughts that came in my mind after seeing Khiladi’s evil look

So Akshay Kumar is really playing an evil villain in 2.0, probably a supervillain. And he is going to fight against the smartest android Chitti, played by Rajinikanth. 2.0 is the, in the words of director Shankar, a spiritual successor to the 2010 blockbuster Enthiran/Robot. That means though Rajinikanth will play the same characters of geeky scientist Vaseegaran and the android Chitti, the story will be purely new. So that will explain Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s absence from the new film, when she was the main heroine. Now she is replaced by the lovely Brit import Amy Jackson. The other members of the cast are Adil Hussain, Sudhanshu Pandey and Malayalam actor Kalabhavan Shajon. It is also said that Rajinikanth will also have a third of that of a villain.

While we have already discussed how we found the proper first look of the film, 2.0, similar to certain Hollywood posters, we will now talk about Akshay Kumar’s look from the film. As you are aware, even before the first look of the film was revealed, Akshay Kumar’s look as the devilish villain was revealed. Wit those those white unruly hair, golden scary eyes, long black nails, Akshay Kumar is near unrecognisable as the darned creature. Seeing him in this avatar, I wonder what’s with director Shankar and his insistence in making good looking heroes ugly, like he made Kamal Haasan an old man in Indian, Vikram was both a devil and deformed hunchback in I and now Akshay Kumar.

So as the world is excited about what could possibly be the biggest film of 2017, here are 5 thoughts that came to my mind after having seen Akshay’s look through memes.

And now, the Dangal Telugu trailer is here. Despite it being obviously dubbed, it retains the magic of the original version. The story will still give you goosebumps. This is the kind of film you can watch in any version and be blown away! The dialogues are equally hard-hitting in Telugu. Honestly in this movie, the actions speak louder than words.

Also Read: Dangal trailer review: Aamir Khan is back with a bang in this highly interesting take on women empowerment

The movie is based on the biopic of Mahavir Singh Phogat, a wrestler from Haryana. The movie also stars lead TV actor Sakshi Tanwar who plays his wife. Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra play the Phogat sisters.The biopic is directed by Nitesh Tiwari and the music is by Pritam. As the story goes, Aamir aka Mahavir unfilled wish of winning a gold medal suddenly comes alive when he sees the same potential in his daughters, that he thought only son would have. Their journey in professional wrestling begins under their father’s training. It’s inspiring and talks about women empowerment. It sends out a clear message that women are no different from men when it comes to potential and capabilities.

When the original version was out, the real Phogat sisters were all praises for the trailer too.  “Aamir’s accent and physique Everything about this man is awesome He takes things to another level & leaves you speechless #DangalTrailer”.

Shah Rukh Khan: I am personally very shy so I may not be able to educate my children about sex

In the world where everyone is preaching to be open about sex, Shah Rukh Khan just made a confession on how he hesitates talking about sex with his children Aryan Khan and Suhana Khan. Yes, although he doesn’t see that as a drawback for he believes his children are perhaps more educated about sex than him, but in this tell-all interview with Bombay Times, Shah Rukh spoke in length about the kinds of conversations he has with his children as he said, “My mother gave me sex education classes (laughs). For me it’s the other way, do I sit with my kids down and talk to them? No, I am extremely friendly with my children and if I am not being too presumptuous I think it’s because of the relationship that I share with my father. Also, I am personally very shy so I may not be able to educate my children about sex, so I don’t bring that up. Sometimes while watching film together, I feel that they are perhaps a little more educated about it than I am. Maybe, I should take a little class from them.” Makes sense, right? Also read: Someone asks Shah Rukh Khan about Aryan’s girlfriend, and his response is totally ROTFL!

However, talking about his policy of upbringing his children, Shah Rukh added, “I have a simple philosophy towards my children or the people who I love. Two aspects I never question. First is their action which I believe is all good. Second is their ability to say, “I don’t know”, it’s good enough answer. In schools when you are asked a question and you say you don’t know, it’s often humiliating. It’s a child’s right to not know. And even an adult’s right. At 51, it’s my right to not know and my self confidence is really high even though you ask me something and I don’t know it.”

Such a sensible father. Now that’s like it isn’t it? No wonder his children love him so much given that Shah Rukh not only tries to give them all the space but also manages to understand their point of view. Parents, take a note!

Aamir Khan ate like a true wrestler at Geeta Phogat’s wedding

Aamir Khan, who has been keeping a strict watch over his diet to lose the weight he had put on for Dangal, let go of his diet and how! He attended Geeta Phogat’s wedding at Balali on Sunday with Sakshi Tanwar and gorged on some home-cooked food consisting of makki di roti and sarson specially made for him. Says a source, “Aamir loves home-cooked food, but at the wedding he was like a child. White butter made at home was ladled heavily all over the food. He doesn’t like gajar ki halwa so he usually avoids it, but as Geeta’s family insisted he tried some, and after the first bite he had three helpings of it! He even kept urging Sakshi who eats sparingly, to have it.”

The source adds that Aamir attended the wedding from the bride’s side of the family. “He had bought huge thaalis of dry fruits and saris and clothes for Geeta’s entire family. He had wanted to gift her the wedding jodaa too, but as it has to come from the girl’s mama, he didn’t. Aamir individually met and greeted all the 200 guests present there at the wedding.” When quizzed by the local media if he attended the wedding to promote Dangal(the film revolves around the lives of the Phogat sisters), Aamir said it had nothing to do with it. He added that even if the wedding had happened a few months before or after the film’s release, he would have attended.

“A lot of Bollywood films are being made in Haryana. It is a special place,” Aamir said in a statement. While being surrounded by the media he also took this opportunity to deliver a dialogue from his upcoming film, “Mari choriya choro se kam hai ka”,  thereby subtly promoting his film as well.

Katrina Kaif to play a NEGATIVE role opposite Salman Khan in Tiger Zinda Hai?

Oops! Did we just break one of the suspenses from Tiger Zinda Hai? So unlike Kabir Khan’s Ek Tha Tiger Hai which had Salman Khan (a Raw Agent from India) falling in love with Katrina Kaif(an ISI agent from Pakistan) against all odds, Tiger Zinda Hai directed by Ali Abbas Zafar is going to come up with quite an interesting shocker. I mean, not that the sequel will deviate away from the core plot of the film. But if the industry buzz is anything to go by then Katrina’s character in Tiger Zinda Hai is suspected to be more on the negative side. Now does that mean she’ll split with Salman or play dirty games to trap him? Is for you to guess. But the fact that Katrina’s expected to be the baddie in this upcoming sequel has got us so damn excited…Also read: Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif’s equation will change after Tiger Zinda Hai?

This reminds us how even a source in interaction with DNA had earlier revealed about Katrina’s role getting meatier with Tiger Zinda Hai as it was quoted, “While in Ek Tha Tiger Hai, Katrina was just seen as a lovely prop, in the action-drama Tiger Zinda Hai you will get to see the actress doing a lot of action for the first time. Katrina has never done hard-core, high-octane action before in any of her films, like hand-to-hand-combat or flying into the air, so she will have to undergo training for it.”

While the mere fact of Tiger Zinda Hai marking the return of Bollywood’s favourite couple Salman and Katrina after 4 years has got us so damn excited. Director Ali Abbas Zafar further assures how he’s going to make the most out of this reunion as he had quoted saying “I am writing spontaneously, going with my instinct. I chose to do the film because of the pressure of it. Directing Katrina (Kaif) and Salman (Khan) in an installment of a successful franchise is not easy. But, I am focusing on telling a more relevant story for today’s political climate. The characters are from the first part, but the story will be brand new.” Also read: Directing Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif in Tiger Zinda Hai is NOT easy, says Ali Abbas Zafar!

Talking about the scenic locations for Tiger Zinda Hai, Ali also added, “We plan to shoot at several overseas locations. Usually, my films are set in India. I often start a story in London or Budapest and invariably end it in Haryana or Kolkata. This time, the story will call for fancy locations; there will be a valid reason why the guys are in a new country. Finally, my passport will come to some good use.
Not to forget, Katrina too during a recent media interaction had clarified how Tiger Zinda Hai is going to continue from exactly where it left in the prequel as she said, “The film is set in today’s times. It’s set in one time period. There’s no aage-peeche at all. It’s a sequel in the correct sense of the term. It begins exactly from where we left off in Ek Tha Tiger.”

All said and done, are you excited to see Katrina as the baddie in Tiger Zinda Hai? Tell us in the comments below and keep watching this space for more updates on this hot story.

Your go to breakup song

You know what I’m one of those people who likes to listen to sad songs when I’m going through a sad time. So I listen to Lag jaa gale. All sad songs. Now my new favourite is Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.

Your breakup holiday destination

London! I know, breakup city is London.

Favourite breakup scene

Actually it was really funny, I found a very funny breakup video on the internet you all should Google it. It’s about a guy breaking up with his girlfriend on a roller coaster ride. While they are on the roller coaster ride. It’s hillariou. Somebody needs to make that in a film

Breakup food binge

Ghar ka khaana is the best khaana. Actually I like chocolates. Ice cream nahi, but chocolate main khaungi. Mithai (sweets)may be like a moong daal halwa.

Get drunk and party hard or whine with bestie on the couch – your way to move over a breakup?
