If there is one actress who must be feeling really frustrated looking at the stupendous success of Ghajini is Genelia D’Souza. Many must be aware that Kangana Ranaut and Ayesha Takia were being considered for a role in Ghajini but that was for the role which eventually went to Jiah Khan.

Sources inform, “The makers had zeroed down on Asin but her dates were getting to be a big problem. Finally as no word came from Asin, Genelia was brought in. Genelia too infact shot for 3-4 days with Aamir. But during that time Aamir started getting this feeling that audience would somehow not accept their jodi as she would be appearing with his nephew Imran Khan in his debut venture Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. Just then the makers got a word from Asin that her dates issue had been sorted out. Immediately then, Genelia was replaced by Asin and as they say rest is history”

Well Genelia has managed to get her shot at fame with Jaane Tu produced by Aamir but it would have definitely been a double whammy for her had she been in Ghajini as well. -Sampurn Media

Govinda’s career graph is on a downhill now and since her daughter Narmada is now ready to face the camera and the anxious father has decided to produce her debut film himself.

‘Narmada will launch her film career anytime in 2009. I feel today she is emotionally ready to face the camera,’ said Govinda adding, “After weighing all the pros and cons, I decided I’m the best person to produce my daughter’s debut film. I don’t want anyone else, no matter how well-meaning, to take the credit for launching my daughter.” Govinda is considering Nikhil Advani and Shaad Ali for directing the film. “Ideally, I’d have liked Narmada to be launched by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He is among our best. But since that is not possible, we’re looking at some other names. My daughter has to be directed by someone who has a vision and an aesthetic sense and also respects the work that I do,” said the actor. As for himself, Govinda wants to slow down his pace and has stopped signing new films or taking up rputine roles. He has decided to work only with directors who are as organised and disciplined as Mani Ratnam.

Currently, Katrina Kaif and John Abraham are in US shooting for director Kabir Khan’s film ‘New York’. It so happened that during the shoot, one of the crew members threw a party at a nightclub and invited Katrina, John and the director to the party.

But it was too late by then and the party had already died down.

Kajol-M

She has taken all efforts to get back on shape and her efforts have paid or so it seems as she poses with her killer looks for the cover page of ‘M’, a lifestyle and luxury magazine for men.

Pranav Capila, executive editor, M, is all praises for Kajol and says, “Why wouldn’t a men’s magazine want Kajol on its cover? She’s certainly been on our wish list for a while. She’s one of our most talented actors; she’s intelligent and independent thinking and isn’t afraid to show it; she knows her mind and through her life choices has proved that she isn’t a slave to celebrity. She can take it or leave it. And of course, she’s a knockout! We believe that’s exactly the sort of woman our reader wants to see on our cover someone who isn’t just window-dressing to sell the magazine” Capila adds, “I think Kajol’s feature turned out great. Visually, we wanted to present Kajol as both classic and contemporary and Jatin Kampani’s photos delivered that feel.” On the other hand, Kajol too is impressed with the outcome and says that she had a great fun reaching out for different looks of both classic and contemporary. She earnestly thanks Jatin Kampani for getting her sported attractively. Kajol adds, “It was great fun to shoot and to see how far you can go. It’s great working with Jatin Kampani. I think he can make anybody look good, even me.” The magazine features one big actress a year on their cover who are generally strong, independent, successful ones. While they shot with Tabu last year; for the February 2009 issue they shot with Kajol. They loved her picture so much that they decided to use it and the interview for the January issue instead. Kajol, too, was also very accommodating during the shoot. Though she is known to be difficult, when she was shooting the lights went off but she did not complain.

Jiah will be seen in a People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) ad, dressed as a wounded bird wrapped in kite string. The tagline of the ad is "Cut the glass-coated manja (string), not birds’ wings". Ace photographer Farrokh Chothia shot the ad and its release coincides with the festival of Makar Sankranti, when kites are traditionally flown.

Sameera Reddy to remind us of Smita Patil


We last saw Sameera Reddy in ‘Taxi No. 9 2 11’ and then the dusky gorgeous lady seemed to disappear into oblivion. Now, she is all set to surprise us with her de-glam avatar as she plays a rustic Dalit woman in Nagesh Kukunoor`s “Yeh Hausla”, walking bare feet in the mud in ghagra-choli with peacocks accompanying her.

When compared with Smita Patil, Sameera says, “I never knew I could do these things. And this Smita Patil comparison is getting uncanny. It was Buddhadeb Dasgputa who first compared me with her.” Working in this film has given Sameera a lift and says, “I feel I`m now born as an actor. When people see me in `Yeh Hausla`, I hope they see me and not just Smita Patil. While doing `Yeh Hausla`, I felt I was connecting with Smita`s spirit. Maybe it was the pure, unspoilt ambience and that whole spirit of `Chakra` and `Manthan` that Smita is associated with.” “Nagesh has taught me so much. I`ve connected with emotions within myself that I never knew existed. I felt I`ve gone to acting school. Other actors came and went. But I was there for the full 47-day schedule. I`m in every frame of the film,” said Sameera praising her director.

Kareena Kapoor's role model is …Aishwarya!

aishwarya-rai-picture-4

Kareena Kapoor greatly admires the way Aishwarya Rai has handled her acting career after marriage. Much may have been written about Kareena’s poor equation with the Bachchans, but that doesn’t stop the Kapoor girl from raving good things about the Bachchan bahu, Aishwarya. Yup! Bebo is all praise for Ash and the way she has shaped her career after marriage. As we know, Ash has become very selective about films after marrying Abhishek Bachchan .


She turned down Karan Johar’s Dostana because she thought the audiences could not see her having affection for anyone else ( Bobby Deol , in this case) when Abhbi is a part of the story. Ash has also become very particular about the directors and producers she wants to work with. Kareena, who has obviously been following Ash’s career, says this is the pattern she too would love to have after her marriage. Which brings us to the burning question of the day - when is Bebo marrying Saif Ali Khan ? Not at least for another two years, says Kareena, whose date diary is full till 2010. Coincidentally, by then the apartment which Saif is getting especially made would also be ready. Perhaps the duo would have the wedding ceremony and the griha pravesh simultaneously.

Aamir's tattoo makes life miserable for Bangalore woman


Ghajini-aamir-head-down
Sorry wrong number! Bangalorean Sarah Varghese is sick of saying that, after her number was tattooed on Aamir Khan’s body in the film Ghajini. Aamir tattoos his body with all the clues that he can get to seek revenge from the person who killed his love, Kalpana. But it’s these tattoos that have brought misery to Sarah.


It was Sarah’s number that was tattooed on Aamir’s body which splashed on all posters across the city. Needless to say Sarah is as irritated with Ghajini as Aamir is in the movie "I thought somebody was playing a prank but when I saw the poster I was really shocked. I was wondering how could my number feature in that and I was really shocked," said Sarah.

So as Ghajni hit the screens on the December 25 and as Aamir bashed up all the baddies he could get in the movie, life for Sarah became even more difficult. Her phone kept ringing continuously sometimes to even 50 times a day. Sarah - who usually doesn’t watch movies on the big screen - decided that enough is enough and went and watched the movie on New Year’s eve.


When asked if she is planning to lodge a complaint against the producers of the movie, Sarah said,"We’ll see as things come and how far it goes. The calls are now reducing, so if it stops completely now, I will not file a complaint". Sarah might not file a complaint but one thing is sure, Aamir’s memory loss has definitely made her lose sleep. However, Sarah who despite all this is one big Aamir fan and she now just hopes that in his next movie she would have no connection with it. Technorati Tags: , , , , , , , ,

Salman parties with Asin in Katrina's absence

original_Asin_487c1e49588e5

Katrina Kaif was conspicuously missing from the birthday celebration of Salman Khan , who had other pretty company for the day at his farmhouse. The entire Khandaan was camped at the family’s Panvel farmhouse last weekend to mark the 43rd birthday of the flamboyant Khan. Though there wasn’t any big party - none’s in the mood to celebrate after 26/11 - there was a small get-together of friends and relatives. Among the friends that dropped by were three pretty things - Asin , Zarine Khan and Mallika Sherawat (from where on earth did she pop in the Khan affair). While Katrina was away on a family reunion in London, Salman played a good host to her lookalike Zarine, who, by the way, has already hit a jackpot by landing a role opposite Salman Bhai (oops!) in producer Vijay Galani’s Veer . Needless to say the director of ‘Veer’, Anil Sharma , and Galani were also invited.Salman’s special guest Asin - who is also his heroine in London Dreams - caught many eyes at the party and received many compliments for her successful Bollywood debut in Ghajini . Unlike every year when the party in the Khan household begins from Salman’s birthday (Dec 27) and continues well into the New Year, this time the mood is somewhat subdued. So after the food and drinks were over, people headed back to their homes. What else to do?
