Rani Making Ash Insecure?

Nov 18, 2008 1 Comment »

Intellectuals say life takes a full circle and history repeats itself. The saying seems to be coming true for the Bachchans.

There was a time when Jaya Bachchan had sleepless nights due to the rumors of relation between Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha. Now, it seems the same insecurity that had engulfed Jaya Bachchan has now caught up with Aishwarya, the Bahu of Bachchan family, who has taken a promise from her hubby that he will not accept films with Rani Mukherjee.

Well, if Aishwarya is worried with regard to Abhishek-Rani relationship, its not purely out of insecurity. Irrespective of how much Abhishek loves Aishwarya, when it comes to profession, surely Rani holds a very significant place in Abhishek’s life. After all, Rani Mukherjee is the lucky mascot of Abhishek as both his films that have had the most successful run at the box office, Yuva and Bunty Aur Babli feature Rani Mukherjee in the lead role. In fact, movie lovers were so fascinated by their online chemistry that many felt they would also make a perfect real life couple as well.

That’s what seems to have scared Aish. But it seems that along with beauty, God has also blessed Aishwarya with some brain also. Scared with the reports about the closeness with Rani that made headlines before Abhiskek proposed to Aishwarya, the Bachchan Bahu has now ask her husband not to work with Rani. Insiders point out that the real story behind the recent refusal by Abhiskek to not do a cameo in a Yash Raj film is that his wife doesn’t want him to be a part of any project which concerns Rani Mukherjee also.

Hey Aish, what’s wrong with you? If Rani’s support is able to help your husband’s sinking acting career, you should rather encourage it and not discourage it in any way.

And the Winner is Amir Khan!

Nov 18, 2008 No Comments »

The verdict is out. Though the final outcome will only be known by the end of December when all the three movies have hit the theaters, Aamir Khan seems to have won the initial round of the undeclared war that is going on between the three Super Khans.

A television channel recently conducted a survey where they asked movie goers that with Yuvraaj, Rab Ne Banna Di Jodi and Ghajni scheduled to release in next few days, which of the three would they want to go and watch. Yes, you have guessed it right. It was Amir Khan’s Ghajni that won hands down.

Well, apart from the usual responses, there was one Amir supporter who gave a very interesting response. When asked she replied that she awaits Ghajni since Amir Khan movies are few and rare. Where as Shah Rukh and Salman has had four releases each this year, Ghajani is going to be first release of Aamir in 2008. What it shows is that Aamir has a very loyal fan following who always await his films eagerly.

But beware Aamir Rab Ne Banna Di Jodi, which was the second preferred film in the survey may give you a very tough fight as practically speaking even Shah Rukh fans haven’t had enough of him this year.

Rani Mukherjee and Aditya Chopra, Trouble in Paradise?

Nov 18, 2008 No Comments »

Whatever may be the relationship between Rani Mukherjee and Aditya Chopra, the news is that its not in a very good shape right now. It seems that the Chopra’s to a certain extent are holding Rani responsible for the poor showing of their recent films at the box office.
Hey, the Chopras what’s wrong. It may be true that a few of your films like Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic and Laaga Chunari Mein Daag featuring Rani in the lead may have had a miserable rum but what about the remaining films like Jhoom Barabar Jhoom and Aaja Nach Le? These films which boomed at the box office did not have Rani.

But, if the rift between the Chopra’s and Rani is true then that speaks a volume about the Yash Raj films. According to a news that went around in Bollywood circles, upset with the closeness that Aditya developed with Rani, Yash Chopra threw his son out of the Yash Raj Productions. But, as the films produced by the banner started failing at the box office, Yash Chopra was left with no choice but to again give the helms of Yash Raj productions back in the hands of Aditya Chopra.

Well, the trick seems to have worked in favor of Yash Raj with Bachna Ae Haseeno doing decent business at Box office. But, as the father son duo patches up, its Rani who has to face the music.

King Singh and Big Boss!

When time is right and your stars favor you, every move you make seems to give you the best results possible. Who would agree to this more than Akshay Kumar? With his films like “Welcome” and “Singh is King” doing so well, it is Akshay who has who has replaced all Khans as the king of Bollywood.

Akshay’s new dominance in the industry is being felt by all, more so by the Khan’s who are feeling the heat of Akki’s success and are therefore trying extra hard to promote their new films. In Bollywood, which is a medium of exposure and publicity, you don’t even want to miss a single chance of showing your face in public and being noticed in public, specially when your new movie is about to hit the screen. So, even if the Stars get the smallest chance to show their face in public and use that opportunity to campaign for their new film, they want to grab it with both hands. This is even more true at this point of time when the three big Khan’s Shah Rukh, Salman and Amir, face the toughest competition not only with others but among each other as well.

So, when both Shah Rukh and Salman were offered to be the celebrity guest at the grand finale of the TV show Big Boss, they both couldn’t decline it.

But, guess who walked away with the honors? Its none other than Akshay Kumar. Though the producers of the Celebrity show Big Boss are keeping it as a close secret, the buzz word in the industry is that Akshay kumar has signed a deal with them. He will feature in the grand finale of the Big Boss show to be aired on November 22.

Well done Akshay. You truly are the undisputed king of the Bollywood right now

Jun 05, 2008 No Comments »

Abhishek Bachchan has said that he plans to stay away from the latest fads such as six abs and blogging. Incidentally the greatest celebrity blogger in India is Abhishek’s dad, the Big B blogs at BigAdda. Recently he said in an interview:

I will not go for six-packs. I am not doing anything to get it. I am very happy with my one-pack and I would love to hold on to it. In fact, I would like every one to go back to one-pack.

Regarding creating a blog he commented:

I keep shooting outdoors and I don’t think I can update it regularly, so I don’t want to start it.

Good for him. At least there is someone content with the way he is. It’s very difficult to see such attitude in Bollywood where herd mentality rules the roost.

Bipasha Basu won’t be able to attend John Abraham’s brother’s marriage

May 24, 2008 No Comments »

Both Bipasha Basu and John Abraham seems to have been going through a rough patch vis-a-vis their relationship and ever since the gossip-mongers started speculating, they’ve been trying hard to prove them wrong. The latest buzz is that Bipasha Basu won’t be able to attend his boyfriend John Abraham’s brother’s wedding due to her extremely tight schedule. Well that’s sad. No fun doing work that bars you from attending events that are so special to your loved ones. Although she will certainly be able to attend the marriage party. We hope John doesn’t feel too lonely at the marriage, because you never know what can happen ;-).
