‘Heronie’ to have a different heroine?

Madhur Bhandarkar is all upset with Kareena!! Yeah he was planning to start his movie Heroine after her current flick “Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji” early next month. But now Bebo seems to be more interested in Karan Johar’s production “Short Term Shadhi” which is going to be directed by debutant Shakun Batra. If rumors are to be believed, Kareena has told Bhandarkar that she could only work on his movie after KJo’s movie by March next year.

It is still not clear if the award winning director is going to wait for Bebo’s dates or if he is going to change the heroine of “Heroine”

Deepika opens up on why it didn’t work with Ranbir

The Deepika-Ranbir chapter has loong been over, but nobody seems to be ready to rest it in the graves. Both of them have moved on and found themselves some one else, but still Deepika couldn’t help dropping sublime hints in her recent interview to a tabloid. She has said

“When I am in a relationship, I give it my all. I am totally committed and devoted. I am more giving, maybe because I am a Capricorn. I don’t expect the same back but somehow in all my relationships, it has been the guy who has strayed. You can ignore something if it happens once, but if it keeps happening, you have to realise that something is wrong

It is interesting that she used “Strayed”.. this makes one wonder if it was Ranbir’s growing fondness of Katrina. But Deepika is now happy with Sidharth Mallaya and wants to keep her personal life personal this time unlike the last relationship.

Its size minus this time!!

Bebo tried the size zero look which Saif had aptly commented to look like a hanger. Now she is all set to go size minus!! yeah.. this is going to be for her new KJo movie in which she stars against Imran Khan. Karan has said that Kareena is going to be seen in chaddis (shorts) in this movie which is named “Short Term Shaadi” whatever that means :P

“She has to sport a short haircut and I also want her to try and get herself into a size minus (not a size zero) because she has to match Imran Khan perfectly for my film tentatively titled Short Term Shaadi,”

says Karan. Bebo will start stressing her out for this look once she is back from shooting for Agent Vinod in Latvia.

Ironically Bebo wanted to get her scintillating curves back as Saif is not at all happy about Size 0

New ‘Anjaana Anjaani’ poster

The first poster for the movie “Anjaana Anjaani” received a lot of negative comments as it looked just like the English Flick “An Education” and “A Walk in the cloud” poster.  The director Siddharth Anand is totally frustrated and says that the pose was a classic one and hence was used in many places. But since the poster didn’t create the impression it ought to have done, it has now been redesigned and the new poster is out. The new poster has Ranbir and Priyanka Chopra looking at each other and smiling unlike the first one in which they were staring seriously at the camera. Copying movies is one thing, but copying ideas for the poster?? seriously come on!!

Priyanka replaces Madhuri for the coveted role of Indira Gandhi

Filmmaker Krishna Shah has roped in Priyanka to play the role of Indira Gandhi in his next movie ‘Mother: The Indira Gandhi Story”. This is going to be a big budget biographic movie to be made in two parts. Jenny Shircore, the academey award winning make-up artist is the casting director. Jenny feels that Priyanka’s face would closely match Indira Gandhi’s face after some prosthetic work. Shah has said in a statement that

“Yes, I am in conversation with Jenny who thinks that Priyanka is the one who can fit in the character of Indira, but it will be too premature to talk about casting as we have not approached anybody as yet”

Albert Finney, Emily Watson, Tom Hanks and Tommy Lee Jones are the other famous actors who have been contacted for portraying various other characters in the movie. Shah has put in a lot of research for his script and has changed it several times. He has said

“The script has been reworked after I got my hands on Richard Nixon’s personal tapes related to the 1971 Bangladesh War. My research has changed the script a lot and now we are looking at casting an appropriate face for Indira Gandhi’s character”

Hmm sounds very interesting and exciting

Clarified at last !!

Despite a lot of effort from mutual friends, the patch up between Ranbir and Deepika Padukone never happened. Now Deepika is seen with Sidharth Mallaya.

And after that, these two have been a couple.”  And of late, these two are seen together in many  places and they don’t bother to hide seeing together in front of the media. Recently they were seen together at the special screening of Peepli[Live].

And Sidharth has also taken efforts to tone his body well and looks a good match to Deepika. Check out their recent photo here.

Sidharth Mallaya is the only heir to the business tycoon Vijay Mallaya

Baby’s Gender not a priority : Kajol

Kajol who has just completed a Karan Johar flick “We are Family” is pregnant and expecting to add another member to her family by September. When asked if she was expecting a baby boy as it was natural to expect one after the first kid is a girl, she plainly declined that the baby’s gender is a priority. She said that she doesn’t feel a baby boy is necessary to complete the family.She said she and her sis Tanissha made a complete family by themselves. Adding more she said” I have a wonderful daughter(Nysa) and how can I say no to another girl justlike her?”

Kajol is expected to take a big break come September. She believes that a woman must have babies only when she can devote time for them. Kajol seems happy doing limited movies per year. She said “I just enjoy doing one or two films per year. d I do more films, people will get bored of me”

Sonam refuses to kiss Shahid

In what is alleged to be the latest news at the sets of Mausam, Sonam has totally refused to kiss Shahid in the movie. Seemingly, it was Shahid’s idea to introduce the hott kiss scene in the movie which was originally not in the script. Sonam has refused to do the scene as it was not a part of the script that was told to her. This has happened when the team was shooting at Scotland. Mausum is Pankaj Kapoor’s film who is Shahid’s dad..

What is the fuss about a kiss!!!

Lafangay Parinday pair to become real life pair?!

The latest with Deepika padukone gossips is that she is now going out with Neil. Yup, the hero of her upcoming flick ‘Lafangay Parinday’/ Neil’s possessiveness towards Deepika is the talk of the town now.. The interesting part is that this actor also has suffered a heartbreak in recent times. Having broken off his relationship with his girl friend he still maintains ‘I believe whole-heartedly in Love and relationships’. Only God knows if this is a publicity stunt by this duo but the btown is buzzing that Deepika can just not stop talking about and Neil. And Neil further adds oil to the flam by his statement “I feel real protective and possessive about her. She is a part of the family now” whatever that mean.. Whew… When are we going to really know what Deepika and Ranbir are upto??
