After realizing that better understanding of characters is a much needed requirement for acting, Himesh Reshammiya has turned over a new leaf in his career.

He is doing so in order to grasp the graph of his character and perform with a lot more ease.

Making her acting debut with a black and white film Frozen, young and charming actress Gauri’s work has already been appreciated in various international film festivals. Let’s find out what the actress has to say about her debut film and many more.

It seems Quentin Tarantino and Guy Ritchie are the latest Hollywood directors to have influenced quite a few of their Bollywood counterparts. Anubhav Sinha was inspired by the KILL BILL director in CASH while Ahmed Khan was one of the first directors to apply a story telling technique similar to that of Guy Ritchie's SNATCH in his FOOL N FINAL. Now if one closely notices the promos of the film, Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, co-directors of the film '99', seem to have been inspired by the two film makers.

Young and charming girl Aamrapali Dubey has made her debut with Saat Phere and is playing the character of Saloni’s adopted daughter. Let’s find out what the actress has to say about her debut in this long running soap and many more.

Name Celina Jaitley has always been synonymous with 'sensuality' and when she poses for the camera, she ensures that all eyes are indeed on her. For someone who has always been known for being comfortable with her body and doesn't carry any inhibitions whatsoever, Celina has done it again by arriving in a photo shoot that for a popular film glossy that has made heads turn yet again. Wearing a two piece bikini with a shirt thrown in a tantalizing manner, she has yet again made a statement. Joginder Tuteja catches up with Celina as she reveals what made her go for the shoot.

At least one child prodigy has been spared the trauma of underage overexposure. Tanay Cheda who plays the protagonist Jamal’s childhood avatar in Slumdog Millionaire has had his share of fame and recognition, at least for now. He wants to concentrate on his studies and focus on just that one film.

Q. You seemed to have achieved quite a lot in the South. Do you think this is it when we talk about your success down South?
A. To tell you frankly I was never serious about this line, which I have chosen. I always wanted to be a copywriter, along with advertising. Films happened to me by chance. That time I used to do very few films as and when I got the time to do it. Eventually I started taking up more films and finally I became quite a hot property down South (laughs). I have achieved a lot in South and I am really thankful to God for that and I want to do more. I just don’t want to limit myself to anything. I did a lot of South films as the lead lady and I am willing to do more.
