Katrina went back home from the sets of Tees Maar Khan after she suffered a stomach ache while shooting for a belly dance performance on a song for the movie. Farah Khan is choreographing the song of the movie that stars Akshay Kumar as well.

Vidya Balan is now taking offers from the Tamil and Malayalam film industry into account. The actress had been approached with offers in thick before but she usually decline. She has changed her mind now to please her parents.

Besides impending motherhood, Kajol has just celebrated her birthday and her husband Ajay Devgn has just had a big success in Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai. “Don’t you think I’ve trained him very well?” her voice sparkles with mischief, pride and pleasure when told that she has a hand in Devgn’s makeover.

Rani Mukherjee, who used to be the muse for filmmaker Aditya Chopra, is no longer the director’s lucky charm. Adi, as the filmmaker is fondly called in the industry, held Rani of Black fame in high esteem as his lucky mascot until recently, when it seems the spell of another Bollywood belle has been cast on him. The new arrival in the filmy world of Adi is none other than the charming Katrina Kaif.

What seemed like a shaky beginning turned out to be a momentary scare for Aisha as eventually, it did manage to scrape through. Though the opening Friday was strictly average and word of mouth not much strong either, Aisha still attracted substantial audience over the weekend to gain some strength at the box office.

When it comes to love-making scenes Neil Nitin Mukesh has still a long way to go. So it was discovered when Neil landed up in Coorg last month to play the first of Priyanka Chopra’s seven husbands in Vishal Bhardwaj’s Saat Khoon Maaf. During the love-making scene Priyanka had to put all her acting skills into action to get the shy Neil to perform at par with her.

Sonam left for Toronto on Sunday night. But not before expressing her happiness over the encouraging opening of Aisha. “I feel like a hero! I feel I’m shouldering the film. It’s daunting to know that heroes get an opening at the box office, and then you see my film get an opening! If I may say so, Aisha got a very decent opening. In any case it’s not very big-budgeted film.”

Yesteryear actor and father of the Bollywood hunk Ranbir Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor is renovating his Mumbai’s Pali Hill bungalow called Krishna Raj. There’s a reason to it.

Bollywood’s King Khan Shahrukh once played the emperor Ashoka in one of his films. Now he may essay the character of an Awadh king. The actor is in talks with a Paris-based Indian filmmaker Vijay Singh, who is planning to make a film on an 18th century love story.

Bollywood beauty Deepika Padukone has kissed Saif Ali Khan on screen. But her new co-star Neil Nitin Mukesh was a virgin kisser on camera when the duo locked their lips last week. Neil had no choice but to succumb to a torrid kissing sequence with Deepika.

Two releases separated by a week couldn’t have been more distinct than this. After a men-affair like Once upon A Time In Mumbaai which was largely dominated by Ajay Devgn and Emraan Hashmi, is time for some female bonding with Aisha hitting the screens this week. The promos clearly indicate that this would be a women-dominated show. Aisha clearly is the launch-pad for Sonam. Dad Anil Kapoor and sister Rhea have come together to ensure that this indeed happens.

Walking the most trodden path to stardom that is on-screen kissing is not Sonam Kapoor’s cup of tea. She turned her back when asked to smooch Shahid Kapoor as required by the script for a scene in Mausam during the Scotland schedule. It is in buzz that her refusal to lock lips with the Bollywood hunk raised a ruckus on the sets of the movie.
