Remember the Bachchan trio sizzle in ‘Kajrare’? Well, Director Goldie Behl had similar plans of recreating the same chemistry but surprisingly, the Bachchan bahu has turned down the offer.

Reportedly, the director through hubby Abhishek offered an item number to Aishwarya for their upcoming flick ‘Drona’. But with Priyanka playing the lead in the flick, Aishwarya has given a thumbs down both to the director and her husband.

For Aishwarya now eying Hollywood and with her international projects like ‘The Last Legion’ and ‘Pink Panther 2′, it is not surprising that she has quietly refused the offer, even if hubby Abhi cajoled her.

Almost all Bollywood actresses want to live a life like Tina Ambani. The wife of the most powerful icon in Corporate India- Anil Ambani, Tina is indeed a surprising character. Having been a film actress for more than 10 years in the cut throat Bollywood industry, Mrs. Ambani has ‘worked’ most of her life. Now, she has dedicated her life to the cause of the old people. The Don girl Priyanka Chopra was there to flag off Tina’s rally.

One would imagine that Tina is probably the kind of lady who would go for a high roller life of doing whatever and whenever she wants. But, she has proved everyone wrong. Instead of flying in private jets and blowing up all the cash on luxuries, Mrs. Ambani dedicated her life to the cause of the old people.

The two most awaited movies of the year Sanjay Leela Bansali’s Saawariya and Shah Rukh Khan’s Om Shanti Om will face something which was not expected i.e. not being screened on the multiplexes. This is due to the reason that they are demanding more percentage of the profits from the distributors than the normal film producer does.

Big distributors of big films Saawariya (Sony Pictures) and Om Shanti Om (Eros International) are supercharging a share of 55% and 60% respectively in comparison to the 48% exacted by the distributors otherwise. Most of the multiplexes of India have pulled the posters of these two films after they have started demanding which is considered as an unfair practice.

When Bipasha Basu talks of her boyfriend and her best friend in Delhi, the whole country listens. She was recently in Delhi launching a high-end diamond jewelry line. Yahoo! India caught her gushing about the things that matter to her. By her own admission, she loves diamonds and John. Only, diamonds a bit more than John. And John, she says gifts her diamonds often.

Jane Austen had shown for all generation of girls how important money is in life and in any relationship. Our sultry beauty knows this alright and does not mix up her priorities. Diamonds first and then John. She calls diamonds ‘truly her best friends’. Today’s movie stars are youth icons and young people throughout the country often look up to them for guidance. In this apparently simple statement of making diamonds one’s best friends is the real picture of our changing societies and the role of women in them. Indian feminism has finally caught up with her western counterparts. The Indian woman is no longer financially or even sexually dependant on the male. The woman has her own diamonds and can live without the ties of marriage. Simply put, she calls the shots. And men are often afterthoughts.

After suffering serious religious discrimination overseas King Khan has announced that his next flick will be based on the discrimination faced by Muslims after the September 11, 2001, terror attacks in the United States.

According to SRK, Muslims has faced extra inquiry after the 2001 attacks in the United States. Khan asserted:

If you travel internationally with a Muslim surname, you might be considered as a terrorist. At London airport, every time I go, people recognize me but they see my second name and they give me an extra checking.

In addition, he said that he had undergone greater religious bias overseas, albeit India, which is majority Hindu but home to 140 million Muslims, sees regular sectarian violence.

Referring to a general Hindu surname Khan further asserted:

There is no difference between a Khan and a Kumar surname here but internationally it makes a difference.

The movie will be titled, ‘My Name is Khan’, and it will be directed by Khan’s pal, Karan Johar.

Whereas, the shoot of the flick is projected to commence early next year and will hit our silver screens in summers.

According to the grapevine, Bollywood hottie Priyanka Chopra now hates Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who is scoring not only on but off the field too.

Some hot rumor reveals that something hot was coking amid Priyanka and Dhoni but Dhoni’s personal invitation to another Bollywood’s sex bomb Deepika Padukone for the Twenty20 India vs Australia match has now created differences among both.

Therefore, now Priyanka has clean bowled Dhoni. While attending a jewellery fashion show in Hyderabad she asserted:

I don’t know him, really, gossip is part of our profession and we live with it.

Well, Priyanka, I can understand your resentment but at least don’t try to deceive media that you even don’t know Dhoni.
