Actress Rehaa Khann will celebreate a cracker-free Diwali

The festival of lights – Diwali, is just round the corner. In fact, in some parts of India, the festival has already got underway. Diwali is a major festival for many Indians. The two key arms of this festival are sweets prepared at home and fire cracking. Almost every household bursts crackers to celebrate the festival.

There is always news pouring in from all quarters of the country, especially Bollywood regarding how the actors and actresses celebrate the festival of lights. This time, we are talking about actresses Rehaa Khann. Rehaa is all geared up to celebrate Diwali with colleagues from the industry and her close friends. The lady wants the Diwali to be cracker-free.

Rehaa Khann wants to make the people aware of how hazardous the consequences of air pollution can be. We can use eco-friendly crackers so they don’t pollute air. There are other options like paper flutters and colored lights, which do not even cause any noisy sounds. “This time again I will light up my house with candles and diyas, decorating houses with rangoli and recycled material instead of plastic accessories”, Rehaa said.

I have also written an article about celebrating safer Diwali here. It is vital we too put in our efforts in preserving our environment.

This means now Raees will release on Eid 2016 for SRK, while Diwali will see the release of Sultan on Diwali next year.

Salman Khan issued legal notice by Vijay Galani

Vijay Galani, who produced the film Veer, has sent a legal notice to Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. The notice speaks of suing Salman for a whopping amount of Rs. 250 crores.

The producer has stated reasons as mental agony and harassment as the two main reasons for the same. There was an understanding between Vijay Galani and Salman that if the film does well at the box office, the producer would pay him Rs. 15 crores more.

There was a payment of Rs. 10 crores as a signing fee already paid to Salman, according to the producer.

However, later the Dabangg star demanded Rs. 15 crores from Vijay Galani, to which the producer replied that he would pay the amount if the film performed well at the box office. And it didn’t do according to the expectations.

Salman then approached CINTAA and then later FWICE regarding his payment. But, there was non-cooperation to Galani. But Galani claims that the non-cooperation cannot be considered as the letter he got was only from one body.

The case has been filed for defamation for the said amount. And now it remains to be seen what outcome the case is.

However, rumors are doing the rounds with some different reason. The buzz that’s around is that Anushka Sharma has got a chance to perform on stage during the awards event. Actually in Dil Dhadakne Do, both Priyanka and Anushka will be seen sharing the screen space.

How can an actress, who is a senior, take it with a big heart to see her junior perform on stage and not she? Let’s hope things settle down between the two actresses and the film performs well at the box office.

Aishwarya Rai will play Dalbir Kaur’s role in Sarbjit biopic

Sarbjit Singh has become a household name, but for a very unfortunate reason. Film maker Omung Kumar will be making a biopic on Sarbjit Singh. Since the news broke out, there have been various names that surfaced regarding the role of Dalbir Kaur’s role to be played on the silver screen.

Various names have been in the talks ever since. Some of the prominent of them are Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra and Kangana Ranaut. However, it is understood that finally it will be Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who will play this role.

For those who do not know, Dalbir Kaur is the elder sister of Sarbjit Singh. Sarbjit was a farmer, who came from Punjab. He mistakenly crossed the line and was found to have entered Pakistan, of course, illegally. He was accused of being a spy. He was ordered a capital punishment way back in 1991. However, he wasn’t hanged.

Soon after Afzal Guru was given capital punishment in India, Sarbjit was tortured to death in Pakistan. He spent as many as 23 years in Pakistani jail.

Why was Aishwarya Rai stopped at the Cannes Festival?

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who is a regular figure at the Cannes Festival, had to face humiliation this time around. Actually, she was stopped at the gate and wasn’t allowed entry inside. She was there to promote her upcoming film.

Sanjay Gupta is the director of Jazbaa, Aish’s upcoming film. Sachin Joshi is the co-producer of the film. There was media presence along with the locals at the gate near the Indian Pavilion. All of them were eager to take a look at the Indian beauty.

It is understood that the reason for stopping Aishwarya at the gate was due to some security reason. Actually, the entry is allowed only if the person has a Blue Pass and it looked like Ash didn’t carry one at that time. The Jazbaa team had to be at the gate for around 20 minutes or so.

The reason for the goof up was the carelessness of the promoters of the film’s event.

Satyapaul, who is the Indian Embassy Protocol officer, saved the day for the beautiful Indian actress. It was later understood that the car in which Aishwarya came to the event didn’t have a Blue Permission sticker. Naturally, the security officer didn’t allow Ash’s car inside.

The officer was convinced that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was a global icon and that the event management of the film would handle the police in case the situation arises later.

Aamir, Salman and Shah Rukh Khan to do a film together?

If reports are anything to go by, then the popular Khan trio of Bollywood, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan will be seen sharing the screen space – for the first time ever. It would indeed be a mega project, but is yet to materialize.

Though the three of them haven’t been in a single film yet, they have paired in various flicks before. Shah Rukh and Salman have dished out hits like Karan Arjun, Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam and the last one being Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.

Salman also paired with Aamir Khan to work in Andaz Apna Apna. It was one of the best comic films of Bollywood and both Aamir and Salman were praised for their splendid roles.

The ambitious project of casting all the three Khans together is visualized by Sajid Nadiadwala. It is understood that he will not only produce the film, but will also direct it.

Though it is uncertain whether the film will indeed turn up to be true, it is known that the shooting will start in January next year. The film is expected to release not only before December 2017.

Rakhi Sawant takes a dig at Sunny Leone

Rakhi Sawant, the opportunist who knows how to remain in the news, has once again managed to grab the headlines. She has once again made bold statements, of which she is neither afraid of nor cares about.

The bold Indian girl uploaded a video on YouTube last week. In the video Rakhi ‘ordered’ Sunny “You, Sunny Leone, get lost from my India....get lost from my film industry....”

Now, what’s the reason for Rakhi to put up a video in that way? Is it the fact that Rakhi is feeling insecure in front of Sunny or is she just using Sunny’s name to get in the news once again? Well, it’s your call and you have to decide that.

The message is crystal clear. Rakhi wants Sunny to leave both Bollywood and India. The bold and aggressive statements from Rakhi just didn’t stop here. She has even gone on to say that it is Sunny who is the reason for her to wear meager cloths.

Rakhi says that Sunny Leone is the reason why she and other Indian girls are forced to wear skimpy cloths. But then the simple question is didn’t Rakhi Sawant or other Indian girls were inadequate cloths before the arrival of Sunny?

Please take your pick!!!

Censor Board refuses certificate to Sunny Leone’s Mastizaade

Sunny Leone starrer Mastizaade is currently going through rough weather as the Censor Board has refused certifying the film. The sex comedy has got a second time rejection now. Understandably, the makers of the film have now gone to Film Certification Appellate Tribunal.

Actually, the flick was supposed to be released exactly one month ago – on May 1. However, it was referred to the Revising Committee of the Censor Board.

According to an inside source, the producers of the film were at least expecting the Board to make lots and lots of cuts in the film. However, an outright rejection has come as a blow and they are understandably dejected.

As a matter of fact, one of the members – a female member – of the board had suggested awarding the film an “A” certificate. This would mean the film would at least get released with an “A” along with some cuts. However, the out-and-out refusal to clear the film wasn’t something expected by the producers.

Pahlaj Nihalani, who is the Board chief, has informed that it was Nandini Sardesai was at the forefront of having the film stalled. However, the producer Pritish Nandy is not ready to believe this statement as he knows that Nandini Sardesai wasn’t present when the screening of the film took place on both occasions.

Sunny Leone’s comedy in Kuch Kuch Locha Hai

Sunny Leone is now trying her hand in her first comedy film titled Kuch Kuch Locha Hai. However, according to her comedy isn’t anything new to her. It is not that she has handled such genre before, but she feels that she has got a good sense of humor.

Apart from that, Sunny also said that she has got ‘a bit of training’ in comedy. In the film Kuch Kuch Locha Hai, there is Navdeep Chhabra and Ram Kapoor as her co-stars.

Speaking about doing comedy on-screen, Sunny said that she never minded being made a fool on the big screen.

As far as Sunny’s sense of humor is concerned, she revealed a bit of herself when she wasn’t working in India. When back in the United States, Sunny was a member of a comedy troop. There she performed stand-up comedy along with some comic skits.

And now that Sunny has made such hype about her comic abilities, it remains to be seen what response she gets and how she is accepted by her fans in a comic role, which isn’t what Sunny Leone is known for.

Such scenes where one actor slaps or fights with the other are generally shot with camera editing to make it look realistic. However, Rajkumar gave a real slap to Vidya and everyone on the sets was taken aback along with the director.

Mohit Suri is the director of the film and he too had no idea of this particular scene. To make the shot perfect, it required three retakes and Vidya was slapped every time by Rajkumar.

It was only after the two actors exposed that the two of them had planned this to make the scene look real.

This film has been released in the United States, in New York to be specific.

Is Madhur Bhandarkar miffed with Priyanka?

Reports are doing the rounds in the media that film director Is Madhur Bhandarkar is apparently unhappy with actress Priyanka Chopra. The reason is said to be that Priyanka first made him wait for his upcoming film and finally put on hold.

Priyanka was to do the film Madamji with film maker and national award winner director Madhur Bhandarkar. The two were supposed to work out the film and make it a reality. The director wanted only Priyanka to be the main lead for the flick.

For this, he waited for Priyanka to finish off her earlier assignments. However, even after that, Priyanka showed no signs of turning up for Madamji. The film was about the story of a bar dancer who successfully made it to politics.

Piggy Chops was in the United States for about a couple of months where she was to shoot for Quantico, which is her first ever international show. However, when she came back, she got involved in her next film Bajirao Mastani.

Yami Gautam Does Multi-Tasking Effectively

Yami Gautam is a self made actress. She made it to Bollywood on her own capabilities. That’s the reason why she probably is capable of pulling off things on her own. She hardly requires any extra support or help to set her daily life rolling.

Paying bills, carrying out daily chores as well as stocking the house with the month’s grocery are some things that the actress does all by herself. Even in her busy shooting schedule, she is well off with this work.

And yes, the best part is that this isn’t any extra work load. Actually, Yami enjoys having this sort of freedom.

Even when she was fighting to make it to Bollywood, Yami Gautam had the same kind of practice. She comes from Chandigarh. Right from there to making it to the Hindi film industry, Yami has been multi-tasking.

Recently, Yami was shooting for her upcoming film in Patiala. However, being away from Mumbai didn’t mean glitches back home. Life was still the same back in the city.

Rakhi Sawant takes on Sunny Leone in public

The forthright Rakhi Sawant didn’t think twice before taking on the former adult actress Sunny Leone. It looked like Rakhi didn’t like the comparison made between her and Sunny. Rakhi was speaking to reporters when she said this.

On the other hand, Rakhi said that she would like to be compared with stars like Madonna and Jennifer Lopez instead. Now, what went wrong that Rakhi virtually lost her cool over Sunny Leone?

She was asked that the video songs of Sunny Leone would prove to be a competition for her. This is when Rakhi said that she shouldn’t be compared with Sunny. She also spelt out the reason for this (check for yourself if that suits). Rakhi said that she had achieved her popularity by winning the hearts of the people.

For that she performed on stage shows, danced, took part in reality shows on the small screen as well. In short, Rakhi didn’t do any adult film to be as popular as Sunny is.

This is when she insisted to be compared with Madonna and Jennifer Lopez.

Now, it remains to be seen what response Sunny Leone gives to Rakhi Sawant. Remember, not speaking about your professional competitor is also a sort of response.

What’s Sunil Gavaskar asking Virat Kohli about Anushka?

Haven’t we had enough of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma ever since the debacle of Indian team at the hands of Australia in the recently concluded World Cup? In the last match for Royal Challengers Bangalore, the legendary Indian batsman asked RCB captain Virat Kohli about Anushka.

The question that Mr. Gavaskar asked Virat Kohli was ‘Is she here’? He was referring to the Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma. On camera, Kohli clearly blushed. He answered in the positive and added that she would be here.

The match was played at Eden Gardens.

However, Gavaskar never knew what those three words – ‘Is she here’ would land him in on the social media. The legendary batsman was taken to the sword on Twitter. One user on Twitter commented that, that shows how much older generation cricketers like Richie Benaud are missed.

Whatever be the reactions on Twitter, it does not look good to ask such personal questions on camera, especially when the two stars have already become a target by the people.

The timing of the question matters, because just 24 hours before, Kohli had come down hard on people for blaming Anushka for India’s exit from the World Cup.

The fire brigade has confirmed that both the ladies are safe and weren’t hurt in the blaze. Abhay Kale, the divisional officer said that they got a call at about 1.45. The fire was on the sixth floor of the building. Two water jets with high pressure capacity were used to bring the fire to death.

However, Riya Sen had a different version to tell. According to her, the fire brigade took almost an hour to arrive at the place. She expressed her outrage over the issue too.

Temperatures are Hitting up this Summer

Anushka Sharma Pestered about Virat Kohli

Anushka Sharma has closely experienced the hot weather about boyfriend Virat Kohli. The dashing number three batsman in Team India, failed miserably in the semi-final match against Australia, where he was out for only one run. Incidentally, Anushka had flown all the way to Sydney to watch Virat batting.

Virat’s poor performance in the match that mattered probably cost Anushka more than Virat. She has faced the backlash from the social media. There were all kinds of jokes being circulated about the two. No wonder, she may got to read some of them, we suppose.

It is a bitter truth that Anushka has come to know about life now. If there is stardom in any way, it also has to come with a certain price. And when it comes to bad performance, be it about Virat’s cricket or her own films, people will talk harsh.

As far as Anushka’s current bad patch due to Virat Kohli is concerned, she was seen losing her temper during an interview. This was when she was asked about Virat Kohli. No wonder, as of now, her beau is the last thing she wants to talk about, at least in public. And losing one’s cool after being asked the same things again and again is very understandable.

It is also understood that both the stars went to Shirdi to seek Sai Baba’s blessings.

Sunny Leone Makes Her Co-Actors Uncomfortable

Porn star Sunny Leone is known for her bold looks from day one (or let’s say even before that). So, is she so bold that it does make her co-stars uncomfortable when shooting? Whenever she is in a film, there is no doubt that the entire focus will be on her only.

Sunny knows how to hog the limelight. In fact, she automatically attracts eyeballs. But then does it have any impact on the promotion of the film? Is she involved in promotion more due to her glamorous background?

The sexy actress has always raised the temperatures with her sheer on screen presence. Ek Paheli Leela – her upcoming film is no different either. However, when it comes to her co-actors, in this case, they are felt being left out. As a matter of fact, Mohit Ahlawat, Rajniesh Duggal and Jay Bhanushali are in prominent roles in the film.

However, they aren’t seen anywhere in the promos. The threesome has even made their displeasure known to the production house as well. There is no doubt that Sunny Leone hogs all the limelight and leaves very little or almost nothing for the male co-actors.
