Salman turns writer

We all know that Salman Khan is an actor. Few of us know about his painting skill and fewer about his writing credentials. Yes, Salman Khan is very fond of writing as well. He himself has written the script of his forthcoming film ‘Veer‘. This action-oriented mega budget film will be produced and directed by Vijay Galani and Anil Sharma. The music director duo Sajid-Wajid has been hired for handling music department. The shooting is scheduled to commence by the end of January.

Other casts are yet to be finalised. Reportedly Anil Sharma was keen to cast Amitabh Bachchan for second lead, but Big B turned down the offer.

Konkona's new role for Nat Geo

Konkona Sen Sharma, the brilliant actor of the Indian film industry, is now set to hone her skills as the host of a series by National Geographic channel.

Aamir and Kiran are together and very much in love

Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao are very much together and are quite happy in each other’s company. They have been reportedly spotted together and those who watched them detected every sign of their happiness.

They were spotted together at a suburban five star hotel. They reached separately and were of course surrounded by bodyguards. Aamir looked every bit like a busy superstar taking away on his mobile phone and when Kiran Rao got there, he held her hand and kept talking on the phone.

However, the way he held her hand was an indication enough that they were happy together and certainly in love.

So, for the time being we can rest assured that everything is perfectly fine between the two.

Yeah, right, Bruce Willis came with his daughter to party. He is too old for this kind of a thing. Why isn’t he letting his little girl go out into the city and enjoy herself? He seems to want to cheprone her everywhere she wants to go.

The unthinkable! Capless Reshamiya

Have you ever imagined Himesh Reshamiya without a cap? The cap is the trademark of Himesh Bhai. But finally he put it off. This change has happened for the role in the remake of Subhas Ghai’s superhit ‘Karz‘. The film which is being made under the same title, although spelling is changed as ‘Karzzz‘. This film is being produced by Bhushan Kumar and Kishen Kumar of T-Series. Reshamiya is shorn off cap, thanks to hair transplant.

Farhan Akhtar to 'Rock On'

Farhan Akhtar has bitten by the acting bug! This writer-director will soon debut as actor under his home production Excel entertainment. The film is being made under the title ‘Rock On‘ and hit the cinema halls around mid-2008.

Amitabh Bachchan not to go bald for Mira Nair's 'Shantaram'

Amitabh Bachchan has done an excellent job in his recent films by sporting news looks. Be it was ‘Khakee’ in which the megastar appeared in a trimmed beard to play a cop’s role or ‘Cheeni Kum’ where he flaunts a hip ponytail for a chef’s role. Both the films like his past ones showcase a complete different personality of the actor.

But I was shocked to know that Mr Bachchan would be going bald for Indian born, New York-based film director Mira Nair’s upcoming film titled ‘Shantaram’. It was hard to believe that he would part away with his locks, be it is a renowned film director who is casting him in Hollywood production. Also being a great fan of Big B I could never envisage him appearing bald especially in a film where he will be seen in a supporting role.
