Aishwarya Rai Official Ambassador!

Whoa! Hold your horses. The pretty Rai hasn’t taken to politics yet. What we’re talking about is the recent launch of the Fuji Frontier Minilab at the J W Marriot. That’s where Ash was. And she was looking simply gorgeous in white. The actress is the official ambassador for the Fuji Frontier Minilab. Sigh, wish we had an Indian Ambassador as beautiful as her. There would be great relations with all our neighbouring countries!

Fardeen to play villain in Ramgopal’s ‘Bhoot’!

Fardeen Khan sure has a knack for making news. Now he’s actually doing what very few actors (read heroes) have tried. The Khan is playing the villain in Ramgopal Varma’s forthcoming film ‘Bhoot’ which also stars Ajay Devgan and Urmila Matondkar. According to the director, Fardeen plays an out-n-out psychotic and wreacks havoc throughout the film. The shooting for this urban supernatural thriller began just a couple of days ago. With Fardeen’s films turning into ‘ghosts’ at the box-office not so long ago, hope this one has him back with a bang!

Sonu Nigam to sign Rajat Mukherjee film!

He’s one of the few singers who is attaining the distinction of taking to the silver screen after playback singing. And Sonu Nigam seems to be doing it in style. With the promos of his debut film ‘Jaani Dushman’ on the tube already, the latest buzz is that he’s all set to sign a Rajat Mukherjee film. Rajat, if you remember, is Ramgopal Varma’s protégé and has directed the forthcoming ‘Road’ which stars Vivek Oberoi and Manoj Bajpai. Sonu is certainly signing the right films!

Juhi’s Shooting Days Are Here Again

Juhi’s ‘London Holiday’ seems to have come to an end. After a month and half of unwinding in London, Juhi is back to work, back to the grind, back to the reel. Well, it wasn’t like all play and no work out there, for the enthusiastic lady did some creative courses also. And now with five films on the floor, Juhi is all geared for shooting round-the-clock. With her recharged spirits and the added creative edge, we’re sure there is some extraordinary surprise awaiting us!

Madhuri: Sheep Among The Wolves!

The much married Madhuri Dixit-Nene has broken the ‘marriage barrier’! The erroneous unwritten rule in Bollywood that actresses once married are not accepted by the audience bites the dust. Devdas’ Chandramukhi has certainly immortalised her love affair with the silver screen and vindicated Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s faith in her powerhouse talent. Incidentally, the beauty is planning to settle in scenic Denver, which is one of the few places where wolves and bears can still be seen. And we thought the pretty lady had had enough of wolf calls!

Shah Rukh: The Favourite ‘Dying’ Hero of The Masses!

True, Shah Rukh is the most wanted; most loved ‘dying’ hero of Bollywood. Well, let me explain that. Our Indian audiences have a mindset, they suffer from a syndrome that claims a hero is next to God. A hero can’t give up, can’t lose. Above all, a hero can’t die. Contrary to the masses’ well-proved theory, there’s one hero who has gone through all these so called non-heroic cycles and yet emerged as the final hero. The King Khan. Be it ‘Baazigar’, ‘Darr’, or the classical lover in ‘Devdas’. Audiences’ couldn’t care two hoots whether Shah Rukh plays the role of a lover, a don, a fighter or a loser. All they want to see is the man himself. Whatever the case maybe - ‘Do or Die’!
