Aishwarya Rai eyed by Vidya Balan’s beau


Even though they do not admit it, but Vidya “Parineeta” Balan and Siddharth Roy Kapoor, head of UTV, have been dating for sometime. But all is not well for them as there is a point of difference between the two.

Roy Kapoor wants to cast Bachchan bahu Aishwarya, instead of Balan, as the lead in UTV’s next production “Heroine”, directed by Madhur “Fashion” Bhandarkar. Siddhartha has been in touch with Aishwarya and has even persuaded her to do the movie. He has even gone on to say that if she wants she shall be provided with a narration of the script.

On the other hand, Balan is also doing a movie based on South Indian glam doll Silk Smitha. For this reason, Bhandarkar wants to put his project on the back burner. But, Siddharth seems to be in a rush to start of with his movie.

Balan is known to do offbeat roles like those in “Paa”, “Ishqiya” and “Bhool Bhulaiya”. Ash has of late done fewer roles. Her last released movie being “Action Replayy” with Akshay “Khiladi” Kumar in 2010. Hopefully, this movie will not lead to the souring of Ash n Vidya Balan’s relationship.

Imran Khan gets seduced by Soniya Mehra in a bathroom


Imran Khan was cornered in bathroom by Soniya Mehra and was tried to be taken advantage of. But, thankfully, not in reality! This happened on the shoot of Batra’s movie “Short Term Shaadi”, which is being produced by none other than Karan Johar. The movie is of the rom-com genre.

Soniya is the daughter of deceased actor Vinod Mehra. Imran’s role is that of an architect, who is meticulous, in the movie. His character’s name is Rahul. Till date, Imran hasn’t done any intimate scenes in any of his movies. So, he needed an amount of coaxing from the director of the movie Shakun Batra and Johar himself.

The scene is in a bathroom cubicle, where Soniya, who wears a provocative outfit, tries to tempt him to get intimate. But instead of being something to watch behind closed doors, the scene ends on a comic note.

The movie is slated to release in October 2011, on the 6th of the month. Imran has been around in the industry for the past three years. He debuted with the movie “Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na” alongside Genelia in the Abbas Tyrewala- Aamir Khan venture. It was one of the big hits.

When he got the news that his shoot for the Dharma film got cancelled due to Kareena falling ill. He checked on her health status, as the two have got extremely fond of each other during the shoot.

After that he decided to plan a last minute Holi party."

Black Eyed Peas dedicate new video to Japan tsunami victims


American hip hop band Black Eyed Peas have dedicated their latest music video 'Just Can't Get Enough' to tsunami victims in Japan.

The band themselves narrowly missed becoming embroiled in the disaster during the shoot, reports the Daily Star.

The pop stars filmed the promo for the new single in Tokyo a week before Friday's 9.0-magnitude earthquake triggered a massive tidal wave, which hit Japan's east coast and swept inland killing thousands of residents.

The band, fronted by Will.i.am and Fergie, jetted out of Japan just days before the disaster struck.

Now they have added a special message to the video, urging fans to donate to the ongoing relief efforts.

The promo opens with the message, "This video was filmed in Japan one week before the earthquake. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the people of Japan. We love you."

And the video closes with a link to the Red Cross

The singer urged her twitter followers to buy the $5 red and white accessory, which has a message "We pray for Japan" both in English and Japanese.

Japan suffered widespread devastation as a result of the 9.0 magnitude earthquake on March11. Gaga is among many stars to raise donations through the social networking website.

Singer Katy Perry tweeted: "Remember as you go about your day please 'pray for Japan & if you are able, text REDCROSS to 90999 to donate $10 to Japan's emergency relief. (sic)"

Teen heartthrob Justin Bieber also sent a message to fans, writing: "Japan is one of my favourite places on earth - it's an incredible culture with amazing people. My prayers go out to them. We all need to help."

Rihanna shows off her fine form on U.S. Vogue cover, Rihanna is the youngest black woman to cover vogue magazine us

Not embarrassed of my love scene with Katrina


Gulshan Grover says he isn't ashamed or unhappy with the intimate scene he shot with Katrina Kaif that shall feature on the new DVD of Boom.

Memories from the past seem to have come back to hound Katrina Kaif. Especially ones that she would surely want to forget. Recently it was reported that the DVD of her first film Boom will be re-released in the market with some never-before-seen footage. And these unseen portions include an intimate scene between Katrina Kaif and Bollywood's patented bad man – Gulshan Grover.

Katrina was new and naïve then. Today she is superstar and sophisticated. It could be embarrassing for her that after all these years the explicit footage will now come out in open. Ask the other person involved in the scene, Gulshan Grover and he says, "I have never been embarrassed by that scene because I merely play a character in it. Today every talent knows that any photograph or video footage of their which they would have wanted to go unnoticed earlier, would somehow resurface with the kind of media and medium we have today. So they are prepared for it".

Going back the memory lane, Gulshan Grover says, "The scene that you talk about shot between Katrina Kaif and me is a beautiful sequence shot on the backdrop of the aquarium of Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai. I am not ashamed or unhappy about it in any way".

In fact he reasons that the scene was earlier cut from Boom because of length issues. "The film was such that its eccentricities did not gel with the Indian audiences then. It was ahead of its times. In fact I make it a point to show the Boom DVD to my Hollywood friends because they seem to understand and appreciate the film better".

Vanessa Hudgens Baresall Photos online, Disney star involved in 2nd baresall photo scandal, Vanessa Hudgens involved in second baresall photo scandal


Disney star Vanessa Hudgens has become embroiled in yet another nude photo scandal.

Photos published online show a girl, said to be Hudgens, fully naked and posed provocatively, reports the Daily Mail.

Although the new images only emerged last night they are alleged to be from the same set which emerged online in 2007.

The pictures also appear to show a girl said to be ‘Zoey 101’ star Alexa Nikolas, who is seen kissing Hudgens.

Two years ago Hudgens sued the owner of a website which published the first set of shots, saying they were obtained by “unknown methods” and posted without her “knowledge or consent”.

The new photos have been released as the ‘High School Musical’ star prepares to return to the big screen in her new movie ‘Sucker Punch’.

There has been some suggestion that the timing was designed to damage the success of her movie.

I'm not a f**k buddy: Payal Rohatgi, Don't want to be a f**k buddy: Payal Rohatgi, dibakar


Payal Rohatgi declares she is, "angry and in mood for vengeance," She was recently discharged from a nursing home, where she was treated for depression.

She's been grappling with the decision to bare her mind about her tryst with Dibakar Banerjee. But now she has decided she wants to have her say. In a no holds barred conversation, she reveals her version of what happened between them, during their short four-month friendship.

Payal says a few months ago she sent an SMS to Dibakar, introducing herself and asking to meet him. According to her, since then they've been friends. "You could also call him a mentor." She adds they'd often talk about relationships – his and hers. "I spoke about my problems (split with Rahul Mahajan), and he'd talk about his marriage not working. He advised me to see a psychiatrist from Bombay Hospital, someone whom he sees to discuss his inability to be monogamous and his need for multiple affairs." She admits not minding being agony aunt to him.

Things changed after she auditioned for a role for his upcoming film, Shanghai. "I mentioned to him that I want to act, and asked for a role in his film. He asked me to meet Atul Mongia, his casting director. The scene required me to react to the news about my husband's murder. I think I gave my best because I cried my heart out. After the audition I messaged Dibakar, and he asked me how I was feeling. I told him I was very low because to portray the grief I'd imagined my mother dying." She claims he then offered to come to her house. "He'd been over before and we've hung out but he never misbehaved with me. So, I agreed. When he came, he commented that I had put on weight. I was puzzled. He then asked me to lift my shirt and show him my stomach. I got pissed-off. I told him not joke around as I was feeling low. I said to him, 'Let me be, and please leave.' And he left."

She says after that whenever she tried to call the director, he never took her calls. "After the positive feedback on the day of the audition, I was surprised when the casting director told me that Dibakar and the core crew preferred another girl. I messaged him requesting him to give me the role and that I was ready to do a two-day workshop, and also do a second audition. No revertal, no reply, nothing from this man who'd call me at least 20 times a month," she says in a high pitch. She says this behaviour from 'a friend' devastated her. She continues, "This must have happened to me before. But never from a friend. You can't f**k your buddy, if you are giving her a role!"

What Dibakar has to say...

The meeting: Payal contacted me first around March 2010 through many texts and phonecalls of an over familiar nature. She said she wanted to act in meaningful films rather than do item numbers. Upon her repeated insistence I met her at a Business Centre of a Five Star hotel in a business environment.

There I impressed that the ONLY way to act in my film would be to pass a screen test. Because her texts were flirtatious I clarified in a frank and forthright way – that if I were to ever cheat on my marriage, I would rather have an extra marital affair with a non actor than ask for sexual favours in return for a role as that would really go against my deepest principles. After that there were many calls and texts asking for professional advice. I learnt other directors had got similar calls too. However giving her benefit of doubt I referred her to my casting and workshop director whom she contacted.

The counselling session: After which there were many phone calls where she sought advice on a personal front. Realizing that she was a deeply troubled person I recommended acting teachers, playgroups, theatre workshops and a personal counselor to h er. This counselor was someone I had consulted, during my darkest hours in 2004 when Khosla was not releasing and there had been a death in the family. This is no secret. Many of my friends, colleagues and my wife know about it. This was told to Payal as a way of telling her that all bad patches can be overcome if one is determined.

The screen test: She contacted me in early 2011. I told her to test for Shanghai by contacting my casting director. She insisted on meeting him and me for workshops before testing. I did not meet her in any way during this period though she called me for advice a few times. After testing for the role, she called him and me many times in a disturbed state. Apparently the testing for the role of a bereaved wife had seriously unsettled her. I told her to get on out and meet friends. I was on my way to a colleague's studio and she insisted on coming there, to presumably to talk to me about the test and cheer up. She also insisted that I pick her up. I was unwise enough to accede.

The meeting at her house: When I reached her place, she asked me up as she would take five minutes. I was barely there for a few minutes and my driver can affirm that. Nothing of any sexual, exploitative or suggestive nature transpired – I'm willing to swear in court to that. After which I escorted her to the studio, where an hour-long happy interaction with people present, while I withdrew to work. This is where the conversation about her weight took place! My colleague remembers it! And there was no request to lift her top – but a discussion on the weight of the character she was testing for! She started texting me shortly after this, asking about the screen test results. I texted her to please check with my casting director, as is my policy. Upon which the texts again became insistent and troubled. This time I took a call as this repetitive pattern of help-anxiety-help was taking its toll. I decided to end communication.

After ending communication: Her texts became angrier, more disturbed. She called me and my casting director in the middle of the night in an angry state. Then all communication stopped. The screen test cue sheet proves the date is 7th February. Why does one take so long to ask redressal? During this clarification you will note that I have not betrayed the many details of Payal's confidential life that she narrated to me while asking for advice. My cardinal mistake has been to take her aim to act in meaningful roles sincerely. And in my well-meaningness and well known practice of being cordial and respectful to all who approach me, misjudged her desperation and level of disturbance and the length she's willing to go to damage a well wisher who just happened to give her a screen test and then not find her suitable.

10 lakh people don't make a hit: SRK


Shah Rukh Khan has been one of the most active Bollywood celebs on social networking site Twitter.

However, the star has been out of action since sometime now. Many would be content in believing that the Khan is inactive as he has no projects to promote and will be back as soon as his films near release. But the real story is very different from the common assumption.

In a recent interview when enquired about his absence from micro-blogging, Shah Rukh explained, "As an actor and as a celebrity, I often come across people who look into my eye and ask me embarrassing questions at press conferences. However, I don't have any option other than putting up a smiling face and replying to the questions even if I am upset or angry.

"It has been happening since 20 years and it happened even during my interactions on Twitter. But I am socially inept, I don't know how to handle relationships and am not very good at dealing with such questions and therefore I thought it would be best to quit," said Khan.

SRK also said that he was having a great time while on Twitter and thought it's great to deal one on one with his fans, until some people started posting crazy questions and comments. Relating one such instance SRK said, "There were comments that 'Oh he only comes on Twitter when he wants to promote his films'. Well with all due respect to everyone, I want to say that 8-10 lakh do not make a film hit."

But SRK also confirmed that he would go back to Twitter someday and as usual talk about life.

Both Salman and Somy stayed at the luxurious Hotel Landmark, while the rest of the crew stayed at Hotel Sukumvit, in Bangkok. Somy Ali, arrived in Bangkok end of February and stayed on till the star's return to Mumbai.

Salman and Somy have split up in the Nineties after a short relationship but they remained friends. Whenever Salman goes to US, he meets Somy.

Sonakshi to play as Kamal Haasan's wife, Sonakshi as Kamal Haasan's wife, "So what if I play Kamal Haasan wife", Sonakshi to share screen with kamal


She made her debut with the much older Salman Khan in 'Dabangg' and Sonakshi Sinha will soon be seen as the wife of Kamal Haasan, who is 33 years her senior, in Tamil-Telugu director Selvaraghavan's film. The young actress says that once an actor is in front of the camera, age should not matter.

"Yes, I'm playing Kamal Haasan's wife in Selvaraghavan's film. Why should that be a problem?" asked Sonakshi, who is just 23.

"Once you are in front of the camera, your age should not matter. I never felt like a child while working with Salman (who is 45) in 'Dabangg' and now with Akshay Kumar in 'Joker'. I will be respectful but an equal on the sets with Mr. Kamal Haasan," she added.

And no, Kamal Haasan and Sonakshi are not doing an Anthony Hopkins and Julianne Moore routine from 'Hannibal'.

"I don't know where the speculation started from. No, this film is a complete original. When I heard the script, I was blown away. I'd be very stupid to turn it down, just because the hero, a legend in his lifetime, is much older than me. Aren't we over these trivial matters?

"In real life, age makes no difference in a marriage. On screen too your biological age is of no consequence. I've been acknowledged for being different from my female colleagues. Let me enjoy this difference," she said.

As part of her preparation to feel maturer, Sonakshi has requested the entire crew of Shirish Kunder's 'Joker' in Chandigarh to stop treating her like the baby of the family.

"I'm not letting them treat me with kid's gloves. I've made it very clear that Akshay, Shirish, Farah Khan, Shreyas Talpade, Sanjay Mishra and the entire team are my friends. It's the only way to work," she said.

Sonakshi also intends to spend as much time as possible with Kamal Haasan to get comfortable in his company.

"It's Kamalji I would like to get to know. I need to establish a comfort level with him. Of course, there's a lot of initial nervousness. Naturally. Kamalji is legendary. Acting with him is difficult enough. But to play his wife, I need a lot more guts. But then I've a legend at home," said Sonakshi referring to her actor-politician father Shatrughan Sinha.

Her dad is helping her to get a hang of Tamil and Telugu.

"It is impossible for me to get a grip on Tamil and Telugu in such a short time. My father couldn't speak either language when he did 'Rakht Charitra'. He read out the lines from cue cards. But no one could make it out. He's teaching me how to read the words in Tamil and Telugu without looking like you're reading it," she said.

Sonakshi will also be watching Kamal Haasan's film 'Hey Ram' where the actor was married to Vasundhara Das, at least 25 years his junior, to see the on-screen chemistry between the legendary actor and a much younger co-star.

"But I'm not supposed to be the least ill-matched with him. It's a film that pushes the envelope. I want to do roles that take me ahead as an actor. I am not here to do routine stuff," she said.

Sonakshi is not even conflicted by the fall-out between her 'Dabangg' producer Arbaaz Khan and director Abhinav Kashyap. In fact, the buzz is, she's been finalised for Kashyap's next as well as 'Dabangg 2'.

"Both Arbaaz and Abhinav are dear friends. I'm glad Arbaaz is turning director. He'll make a terrific sequel to 'Dabangg'. As for Abhinav, I'd love to be part of anything he does next," she said

Farah Khan bolts from operating room during nasal surgery


She has already postponed nose surgery once (last week). This time (yesterday morning, to be precise), Farah Khan bolted from the operating theatre when a thick needle was inserted through her nose!

Says Farah, "I've had sinus attacks for a year now. However, it got really bad last week after I finished shooting for a song in Chandigarh for Joker.

I became so unwell I couldn't move. The cold had blocked my nose. I could barely breathe, let alone talk. My doctor advised an immediate operation to drain my nasal passage of fluids.

The first appointment was on Saturday but I chickened out as I hate surgery! I told him I'd show up Monday. I was on heavy antibiotics till then."

The scene on Monday morning, however, was nothing short of slapstick. "My doctor put me on local anesthesia. As I lay on the operation table, I saw this giant needle being inserted into my nose.

I panicked. The nurse offered to hold my hand but I was so scared by that time, that I would have no needle up my nose, at least as long as I was conscious!"

Off came her surgical gown, on came her clothes, out of her mouth came a few words to her doctor and then she bolted. "I later told my doctor I'd have the surgery after a week!

And he has to give me general anesthesia. And if I feel I'm getting better, I won't do the surgery at all. !"

FK then did a promo video shoot for Just Dance, a reality TV show she judges, that evening. All in a day's work!

He is back to settle the scores with a new film 'Ulagam' that is made in three South Indian languages with a budget that can compete with any super star film. Vadivelu will be seen in 25 different getups. Itching of this black comedian has become a problem for producer and director.

The greediness of Vadivelu spoiled reputation as a top comedian many times in recent past. It looks as if we have Brahmanandam in every regional film industry.

Meltdown alert at Japan reactor, Japan Earthquake, Tsunami in Japan, Meltdown alert at Fukushima Nuclear Reactor


Technicians are battling to stabilise a third reactor at a quake-stricken Japanese nuclear plant, which has been rocked by a second blast in three days.

The fuel rods inside reactor 2 at the Fukushima Daiichi plant have been fully exposed on two separate occasions, raising fears of a meltdown.

Sea water is being pumped into the reactor to try to prevent overheating.

A cooling system breakdown preceded explosions at the plant's reactor 3 on Monday and reactor 1 on Saturday.

The latest hydrogen blast injured 11 people, one of them seriously. It was felt 40km (25 miles) away and sent a huge column of smoke into the air.

The outer building around the reactor was largely destroyed.

But as with the first explosion, Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco) said the thick containment walls shielding the reactor cores remained intact. It also said radiation levels outside were still within legal limits.
'Not optimistic'

Shortly after the blast, Tepco warned that it had lost the ability to cool Fukushima Daiichi's reactor 2.

Hours later, the company revealed that the fuel rods inside had been exposed fully at one point, reportedly for about two-and-a-half hours. It said a fire pump that had been used to pump seawater into the reactor had run out of fuel.

The company is now trying to inject sea water into the reactor to cover the fuel rods, cool them down and prevent another explosion.

Initially, water levels continued to fall despite the efforts, as only one of the five fire pumps was working, officials said. The other four were believed to have been damaged by the blast at reactor 3.

By Monday evening, the water level inside the reactor had risen to 2m. But later, Tepco officials said the fuel rods had again been fully exposed.

Air pressure inside reactor 2 rose suddenly when the air flow gauge was accidentally turned off. That blocked the flow of water into the reactor, leading to the water level dropping and the rods being exposed at about 2300 local time (1400 GMT).

"We are not optimistic but I think we can inject water once we can reopen the valve and lower the air pressure," a Tepco official told reporters, according to the AFP news agency.

Exposure for too long a period of time can damage the fuel rods and raise the risk of overheating and possible meltdown.

Japan's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency said workers were also battling rising pressure within the reactor. They have opened vents in the containment vessel, which could release small amounts of radiation.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said there were signs that the fuel rods were melting in all three reactors at Fukushima Daiichi.

"Although we cannot directly check it, it's highly likely happening," he told reporters.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said the core container at the reactor was still intact

However, he insisted that radiation around the plant remained at tolerable levels.

Nevertheless, nearly 185,000 people have been evacuated from a 20km (12 mile) exclusion zone around the plant.

The US said it had moved one of its aircraft carriers from the area after detecting low-level radiation 160km (100 miles) offshore.

Experts say a disaster on the scale of Chernobyl in the 1980s is highly unlikely because the reactors are built to a higher standard and have much more rigorous safety measures.

Earlier, Tepco said it had restored the cooling systems at two of the three reactors experiencing problems at the nearby Fukushima Daini power plant, 11.5km (7.1 miles) to the south.

The Japanese government has asked the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to send a team of experts to help, the UN agency has said.
Complete devastation

Meanwhile, the relief operation is continuing after Friday's magnitude 9.0 earthquake, which triggered a tsunami that devastated swathes of the north-eastern coast of the country.

About 2,000 bodies had been found washed ashore on beaches in the north-eastern prefecture of Miyagi, police said.

A thousand were found on the Ojika peninsula and another thousand in the town of Minamisanriku, which was flattened by the tsunami.

The BBC's Rachel Harvey says the valley where Minamisanriku once stood is now just a scene of complete devastation.

Everything in the tsunami's path was flattened, with only the town's hospital and a government building remaining, our correspondent says. Apart from that, she adds, there are just a few rooftops here and there.

The total number of people killed by the disaster remains unclear. The official death toll stands at nearly 1,900, but officials in Miyagi have estimated that 10,000 people died in the prefecture alone.

Tens of thousands are still unaccounted for, while many remote towns and villages remain cut off and have had no help since Friday's earthquake.

Japanese news agency Kyodo reported that more than 500,000 people had been displaced by the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear emergency.

Millions of others have spent three nights without water, food or heat in near-freezing winter weather.

The government has deployed 100,000 troops to lead the aid effort. They have been given 120,000 blankets, 120,000 bottles of water, tonnes of food, and 111,000 litres (29,000 gallons) of petrol to distribute.

But Hajime Sato, a government official in Iwate prefecture, one of the three hardest hit, said it had received so far only 10% of the food and other supplies they had requested from the central government.

"People are surviving on little food and water. Things are simply not coming," he told the Associated Press.

Communications networks are also down in many areas.

The government asked people not to go to work or school on Monday because the transport network would not be able to cope with demand.

The capital, Tokyo, is still experiencing regular aftershocks, amid warnings that another powerful earthquake is likely to strike very soon.

A 6.2-magnitude tremor on Monday triggered a new tsunami scare on the Pacific coast, with the authorities telling people to flee to higher ground.

The Foreign Office has updated its travel advice to warn against all non-essential travel to Tokyo and north-eastern Japan. British nationals and friends and relatives of those in Japan can contact the Foreign Office on +44(0) 20 7008 0000.

Trisha's Pregnancy News Shakes Film Industry, Trisha Krishnan Pregnancy shakes Film Industry, Rumors on Trisha, Trisha in Fashion remake, Trisha blast


A wild rumor started spreading from a few days about the pregnancy of Trisha. She is now busy with various films and many projects are in the verge of getting finalized.

But the reason for this wild news is because of her saying ‘no’ to some projects in Hindi as well as Tamil remake of Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Fashion’.

Gossipmongers assumed that Trisha is begetting a child without marriage and creating a revolution in film industry and hence she is taking leave being pregnant. Although there is no believable sense in this gossip, it started spreading wild and wide.

But when asked about this Trisha blasted media for creating such gossips. “There is no iota of truth in this. This is eerie gossip that I never thought of coming across”, she said.

And another gossip is also in news is that she is getting married to a Hyderabad based millionaire and the man behind her alleged pregnancy is also the same. When asked about that her mother immediately asked the journo to stop interview as there is no meaning in answering such baseless questions. Trisha obeyed her mother and walked out from interview.
