Kangna Ranaut is on a perfection spree

kangna ranaut1

Kangna Ranaut is on a perfection spree. And her upcoming film Knock Out will see her not just in the mantle of an actor but also a dancer. The actress will don the avatar of a rock star and head bang to a groovy title track with co-star Sanjay Dutt on the guitar.

But the making of the song was not smooth sailing for Kangna, who was actually running high temperature on the day of the shoot. The producers had almost cancelled the shoot when she requested them otherwise. And Kangna is known to be someone who respects the time and money involved in any project.


Furthermore, her energy was so infectious, that choreographer Ahmed Khan couldn’t stop raving about her. “She is so dedicated, it’s amazing that her energy levels were so high even when she was sick. The song is going to be one of the best numbers in the movie,” he said.

Needless to say, her producers were floored by the gesture. And as they say, all’s well that ends well - the high performance song has turned out to be an eye catcher.

Freida Pinto bored with Lovey-dovely roles

Freida Pinto is apparently bored of playing the lovey-dovey roles on screen and is keen to do some action.

“I keep playing the damsel in distress. But I’d like something with a kick now,” she is quoted as saying by Daily Mail online.

The 25-year-old Mumbaikar shot to fame as Latika in Slumdog Millionaire which went on to win eight Oscars and played a similar feminine character in Woody Allen’s romance You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger.

Pinto admitted that she was nervous before shooting with Woody Allen.

“This was my third film, so I was worried I was the only one with a lot to learn. But when I met people like Anthony Hopkins who were feeling pretty nervous, I realised everyone is intimidated to work with a legend,” said Pinto.


Sadly, Pinto hasn’t got very flattering reviews for her performance in the Israeli-Palestinian film Miral.

Sonakshi Sinha stay away from ramp

Sonakshi-Sinha11

She tottered and fell on the ramp at a fashion show in Bangalore last week, but does that mean she shouldn’t be back on the runway. Well, Salman Khan thinks it would be better if Sonakshi Sinha stays away from ramp, at least for some time. The actor is not keen to have her on the ‘Being Human’ fashion show on October 9 which will only feature his co-actresses from various films.

Katrina Kaif, Rani Mukherjee, Priyanka Chopra, Amisha Patel and more are expected to be on the show sashaying down the ramp with Sallu and also Aamir Khan. Though Sonakshi is eager to be part of the show, her parents, like Salman, too feel that ramp can wait. It’s learnt that after the Dabangg success her parents are cautious and think that many people envy Sonakshi’s new-found stardom.


Heeding their sentiment, the starlet will now support the show from the sidelines. She says, “I’ll just be a part of the audience. Let me enjoy the show this time.”

Salman is conducting this charity fashion show with the help of his sister Alvira Khan Agnihotri. Last year it was an all-male show with several B-town hunks sharing the ramp instead of silver screen.

Bipasha completely loves my look: John Abraham

Bipasha1

John Abraham is probably one of the hottest looking hunks in Hindi Film Industry, but when Abbas Tyrewala the director of “Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na” cast John for his upcoming bollywood movie “Jhootha Hi Sahi” for a character who is geeky looking guy, everyone started talking about error in cast and media at some point of time even called Abbas Tyrewala someone who has taken the success of Jaane to his head and probably he himself doesn’t know anymore what he is up to.But proving everyone wrong, John and Abbas unveiled the new look of John Abraham, and just like us everybody was astonished as to what Abbas has done with the hunk. John is sporting an old bulky black framed spectacle, Abbas also trimmed his hairs without any spikes, no tight tees this time and a pair of trousers and full sleeves formals is all John have in the movie.


However, this new look has gone down really well with John’s girlfriend Bipasha Basu, we spoke with John and this is what he said - “When Bipasha saw my look in the film, she said that if there is any director who has managed to break me down physically and in terms of a character on screen, it’s Abbas,”. “She (Bipasha) completely loves my look. She said that this is the film I want to watch because it’s very unique, very fresh,” he added.

No time for Marriage says Rakhi Sawant


Item girl Rakhi Sawant, who had her “swayamwar” on television but broke off her engagement, says she has no plans to get married soon because she is too busy with work.
“I have not thought of getting married anytime soon. I have been doing a lot of shows. And now I am doing my own ‘Rakhi Ka Insaaf’. So I am very busy with my work,” Rakhi told reporters via video conference here.
In her new show on NDTV Imagine starting Oct 16, the 31-year-old will be talking to families in a bid to resolve their problems related to dowry, extramarital affairs, divorce and property disputes.
“Whatever cases have come to us, we have thoroughly looked into them and collected evidence before taking them up. I don’t know about the law but I would be making judgment with my heart,” she said.
Rakhi is unfazed although Bollywood action hero Akshay Kumar’s comeback show “Master Chef India” will also kickstart on Star Plus Oct 16, luckily at a different time.
The item girl insists her show is the best. “Mera show sabhi shows ka baap hai (My show is the best of all),” she said.

Rakhi was the star of the reality show “Rakhi Ka Swayamvar”, where she selected Canadian businessman Elesh Parujanwala as her life-partner and teamed up with him in another reality show. “Pati, Patni Aur Woh”. But post “Pati…”, the two parted ways

“I wanted all the characters to have different looks in G3:Ajay Devgan

ajay dev1


Director Rohit Shetty has made it sure that Ajay Devgan’s entry in ‘Golmaal 3’ is no less than his impressive and grand entry in the earlier sequels “Golmaal: Fun Unlimited” and “Golmaal Returns”. In “Golmaal: Fun Unlimited”, released in 2006, Ajay made his entry on a sports bike and in the 2008 “Golmaal Returns” he balanced himself on two Hummer cars. In the latest one, Ajay will be seen making an entry balancing himself on two vintage cars driven on two wheels each. The cars will be bright pink and yellow in colour.

Ajay has also sported a brand new rugged look for the film with diamond ear studs, tattoos and cropped hair. Kareena Kapoor sports a tomboy look, Tusshar Kapoor has a tapori look and Arshad Warsi too has experimented with his looks.
“I wanted all the characters to have different looks in G3. For Ajay (who plays Gopal again), I wanted a character that looked different from everything he has done. He has been working hard on his body a lot, so we will have him flaunting his body. He plays a hyper character who loses his temper very quickly, because of which everyone is scared of him. People never know what he will laugh about or get angry about.” Shetty said.


Ajay Devgan’s tattoos have been designed by Aalim’s studio. “Vishwas from my salon designed the tattoo on Ajay’s neck but the concept and choice was Ajay’s. The tattoo is of a Celtic or tribal trishul. No actor in India has got a tattoo made on the neck.” Aalim said.
“We have given Ajay the buzz cut, a more macho, masculine and grungy look than he normally sports. We were waiting for all his film shoots to get over before we could give him this look as otherwise it would have continuity problems. He took a keen interest in the whole look and styling.” Aalim added.
