Not only that Mallika keeps advising about the advantages of low fat and oil free food and tells them to go on a Japanese food diet since it is oil free whereas, Indian food contains ghee. The actress is always considerate on the sets about her co-stars and everyone around her.

Akshay Kumar’s the perfect host for Fear Factor Khatron Ke Khiladi.
And he proved that in Bangkok a few days ago, when Viacom18 revealed its upcoming Hindi General Entertainment Channel. The channel to be launched in July is called COLORS and Akshay’s show, planned across 16 episodes, is one of its initial flagship shows, the other being Mohe Rang De, a period drama set in the backdrop of 1942’s Quit India Movement.
At the Bangkok event, when Akshay was asked what ‘fear’ meant to him he came down from the stage and shocked everyone by pulling out a python from underneath one of the tables and wrapping it around his neck. “You have to stand up to your fears,” he declared. And what did he fear most? “I fear investing money, I fear animals. But I like to deal with my fears,” said the actor, who’s known for doing his stunts in films himself.
The term ‘daredevil’ has become synonymous with Akshay (we aren’t just talking about the IPL team). Even at the Bangkok event Akshay made a grand entry on a bike smashing glass and getting on to the stage. But how does his family, especially wife Twinkle, react to the risks he takes? “She has given up,” laughed Mr Khiladi.
Action has always been close to Akshay's heart, but he’d rather not be branded just as an action hero. “I have done everything from action to comedy, haven’t I?” he pointed out. Yes, he’s getting back to doing action films, but there’s a cute reason for that: “My son Aarav’s been asking for that, so I’m doing some action films now. Aarav also inspired me to take up Fear Factor Khatron Ke Khiladi.”
Joining the macho hero on this TV show are 13 hot women from the entertainment world, who will compete with each other. It will be shot over a month in South Africa. “I have always believed that women are stronger than men. Men, who still believe that they are superior and stronger than women, are no better than pigs. Through this show, I’m out to prove these men wrong and establish the fact that women are not only emotionally stronger than men, but can also outdo them in physical strength,” challenged Akshay.
Rajesh Kamat, Chief Executive Officer, COLORS, added, “Keeping in line with our strategy to be differentiated and disruptive, Khatron Ke Khiladi will bring to Indian viewers a scale that has not been seen on the small screen so far. Apart from that, our channel has got a strong line-up of shows that are not only universal in appeal but also extend across genres, thus offering an entire spe read more...

We’ve already seen Bebo’s hot look in Tashan and credit her hot bod to s crash diet but Kareena’s dietician Rujuta Diwekar has denied that Bebo was crash dieting.
Rujuta Diwekar revealed that Kareena has been working on her body since May 2007 and was able to achieve her super body after a year of hard work.
Rujuta said, “She was never pencil thin so I planned her diet that consisted of healthy nutritious food. And contrary to reports in the media that the actress starved herself and had only orange juice is false. There were also stories that she fainted while doing some scene but it is not true.”
The dietician also added, “What worried Kareena was that her fans, especially the teenage girls who look upon her as their icon, would blindly follow the false articles to emulate her and the results could harm them in some way or the other. Kareena did not want that to happen and thus this clarification.”
“She (Kareena) wants her fans to know that she has achieved her super sexy body, over a period of time by being dedicated and disciplined about her eating and fitness habits. She is massively into a strict exercise regime of yoga which she practices for almost 2 hrs a day. read more...

After the thriller Race, comes another suspense film, Bhram. Only this film does not brag of a stellar cast like Race. Despite that, Bhram holds its own.
Bhram is Pawan Kaul's second directorial venture after his first thriller, Sssshh..., and stars Dino Morea, Milind Soman, Sheetal Menon and Simone Singh.
Shantanu (played by Dino) is on a mission to locate the mysterious Indra, a man from his sweetheart Antara's (played by debutante Sheetal Menon) past to find out what crime he had committed that almost ruined her life.
The film keeps shifting between the present and flashback scenes. We see the tortured damsel in distress Antara, and Shantanu, her knight in shining armour. Everything seems to be going well until the intermission. And that's where we see the first threads of suspense.
The second half is faster and works better than the first. Secrets are revealed, illusions are shattered, and we begin to see people for what they really are.
Dino MoreaDino and Sheetal do a good job. Milind, who plays Shantanu's brother, does not have much screen time. Simone, playing Milind's wife, has great screen presence and turns in a natural performance.
Her scenes with Dino in the first half -- the lovable bhabhi-dewar banter -- is like a breath of fresh air.
Music has been composed by Siddharth-Suhas and Pritam Chakraborty. Jaane kyun tanha ho gaye and Meri Akhiya are good numbers, the rest don't match up.
Director Pawan Kaul has put in a lot of effort, and it shows.
On the surface, Bhram has a lot going for it -- plenty of steamy scenes, sexy women and gorgeous men -- but there's only so much that you can take of them. The film has many plots and twists, but does not grip you as it should. read more...

Namastey London, Partner and now a box office Welcome that's put Katrina Kaif ahead in the Race to the top.
At least as far as her market price goes, Katrina is being paid Rs six crores for a two-film deal by production house Studio 18. That's Rs three crore per film.
She is getting over a crore for a item number song in the Akshay Kumar starrer Blue. And now even a Yash Raj flick with John Abraham is reportedly paying her Rs three crores.
All this makes Katreena Kaif one of Bollywood's highest paid actresses alongside Kareena Kapoor.
Kareena, who also reportedly charges about Rs three crores a film, has a two-film deal with Studio18 and another three film deal with Ashtavinayak Films that produced Jab We Met.
The Katrina deal according to reports seems to have rattled Kareena and she's raised her price tag to Rs six crore for her next film. But Ashtavinayak Films that's producing the film has denied any such demand. So maybe no one is willing to sign Kareena as yet for that kind of money. read more...

The Raj Thackeray-led Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) has taken strong exception to allegations of "indecent behaviour" levelled against Bollywood actor Nana Patekar by upcoming star Tanushree Datta.
The MNS has written letters to different associations of cine producers to 'blacklist' Tanushree for accusing a senior actor like Nana of bad behaviour during the shooting of an item number for the movie Horn OK Pleassse on Wednesday.
The organisation, which was recently in the news for its violence against the north Indians living in Mumbai, has threatened to agitate against the actress if she does not give an unconditional apology to the actor, whom it describes as the "pride of Maharashtra".
Meanwhile, producer of Horn OK Pleassse, Sami Siddiqui, filed a complaint Saturday with the Association of Motion Picture and TV Programme Producers (AMPTPP) against Tanushree.
He alleged that his production firm, Sunshine Pictures Pvt. Ltd, incurred a heavy loss because the actress failed to complete shooting for the item song being filmed on her and Nana.
In his complaint, Siddiqui also stated that the goodwill of his production firm was tarnished because Tanushree went to the media saying that she was "coerced" by director Rakesh Sarang and choreographer Ganesh Acharya to do steps in the item song she did not feel comfortable doing.
Acting quickly on the complaint, the AMPTPP dashed off a letter to the actress, asking her to pay a compensation of Rs 65 million. This would include Rs 15 million to Sunrise Pictures Pvt. Ltd. and Rs 50 million for defaming it in public.
Sunrise Pictures Pvt. Ltd. had signed Tanushree for Rs 1.5 million for the item number to be shot over four days. She had been paid an advance of Rs 500,000.
According to Siddiqui, he as well as Sarang and Acharya had explained to Tanushree what her steps would be in the dance number.
"She had agreed to it," Siddiqui said.
"They [Sarang and Acharya] also agreed when she requested them not to compel her to wear a costume she would not be comfortable with. So we were surprised when she walked out of the sets on the last day of the shooting [March 26] after taking part in it for two days," Siddiqui said on Saturday.
On Friday, Tanushree shot off a letter to the Cine and Television Artistes' Association (CINTAA) explaining the sequence of events that led to her stomping out of the sets and the scuffle that subsequently took place between media persons present on the sets and h read more...

The lead actors and actresses of a film not getting along with each other is not uncommon. But what took this issue to another level altogether is the spat which happened yesterday, between Tanushree Datta and Nana Patekar on the sets of Rakesh Sarang’s Horn Ok Pleassss.
The incident occurred during the picturisation of an item number with choreographer Ganesh Acharya. Tanushree, allegedly, reasoned that instead of the chorographer, it was Nana who started showing her the steps and in the bargain, he came too close and made her feel uncomfortable. After which she immediately ran into her vanity van and shoot was stalled for quite a while. Tanushree then called it a day and got into her car along with her mother. Her car was then allegedly ‘attacked’ by hoards of journalists, who just wanted a video ‘byte’ from her over the issue.
Tanushree’s family, in the meanwhile, has filed a FIR against those who attacked their car.
On the other hand, it’s the perpetual hot favourite Rakhi Sawant, who has replaced Tanushree Datta. With the kind of item number that our laadli Maharashtrian mulgi is doing, she will surely create a world record in item numbers, Rakhi isshtyle! read more...

No one can deny the fact that Shah Rukh Khan is the biggest global superstar in the Hindi film industry. As is well known, King Khan has taken up another TV quiz show (after Kaun Banega Crorepati), which will run during prime time on the country's number 1 channel, across March end, April and May. It is given that the show, 'Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain? ' will command record eyeballs for sure, especially during the initial episodes.
As is known, Shah Rukh Khan also owns a cricket team in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Kolkota Knight Riders, which will play Twenty20 competitions in which a record 59 matches will be played and telecast in April-May. Knowing the involvement of SRK and some of the other high profile members in IPL, it is naturally going to be a huge event that will command undivided attention of the cricket crazy nation.
So it is but obvious that both Shah Rukh's television show and the IPL cricket tournament will have an adverse effect on the films releasing during those times. And will take away the audience that might otherwise have bought tickets for entertainment purposes.
Well, on a serious note, its only the makers (who have cinematically inferior products) and media hyped stars who need to worry and will crib about these factors for the failure of their projects. There have been countless instances when audiences have thronged to the theatres despite the most hyped events. But then on many of those occasions, King Khan was on the right side of the fence for Bollywood! read more...

To begin any Bollywood actress's interview by calling her 'different' is surely a cliché and you'd be ready to put it down to the interviewer's fancy, but here's something for starters – she readily admits she's not a huge cricket buff (though she doesn't mind the Twenty20)! Meet Amrita Arora, the Bollywood bombshell who made audiences sweat as she moved to the sardi of Dilli, and who has no qualms about wearing her sexuality on her sleeve.
Do you mind the 'sexy siren' tag? Do you think the image prevents you from getting more serious roles?
Not at all. I like being sexy and I think it is a woman's prerogative to be sexy! I don't fear the label, for I think 'serious' is a very hypothetical term. Does it mean being de-glam and doing rona dhona ? I think there'll be sexiness even in the de-glam Amrita.
You're quite the queen of item numbers. Are you still game for more?
Hey, I've done just one item number, Dilli ki sardi . People have the impression I've done more since most of my movies have popular numbers. Well yes, if someone offers me another item number that is to my taste and I like the track, I will be happy to do it.
You're one of the fittest actresses on the scene. How much effort goes into working out and dieting?
Lots...(and repeating it for emphasis)...lots! When you're 21, if your genes are good, you can eat like a pig and still stay in shape. But as you grow older, it requires a lot more effort. I do yoga thrice a week and weight training thrice a week. I do control my diet, but don't believe in not eating. And one day in the week is my 'cheat-day' when I let myself go completely mad and have all the cakes and chocolates. Being half south Indian, tairasadam (curd-rice) or sambar-rice is a must on that one day.
At a time when a lot of actresses are uncomfortable doing bold roles, you did the daring role of a lesbian in Girlfriend . What made you do that?
Well, the mindset of the average heroine here is still somewhat prudish, and they want to do the tried and tested roles. Girlfriend may be gone and buried now, but I did it for the right reasons, wanting to work on a subject that's important. Unfortunately, it got lost in a season of sleaze with movies like Hawas . I hope five years down the line, someone will handle the subject better and win accolades.
What are your upcoming projects?
I am trying to do really varied stuff. In Atul Agnihotri's Hello , I do a de-glam role of a girl addicted to substances. In Banda Ye Bindaas Ha read more...

As the reports of Kareena Kapoor's collapse during the shoot of Tashan raise questions about her crash diet, dad Randhir Kapoor is quite upset with Bebo's weight obsession.
Voicing his concern, he says, "I have told her to stop the 'diet business.' She has become quite thin and must not lose more weight, but Bebo tells me that I should go on a diet because I am terribly overweight. Now what you can you say to that!"
It's common knowledge that Bebo is literally surviving on love and fresh air these days, with chhote nawab by her side. But has the daddy dearest accepted her beau? "If my daughter is happy with Saif Ali Khan, then I am happy too and my blessings are always there for my children."
While Dabboo is certainly worried about his younger daughter's health, he is also quite proud of her achievements and says happily, "I was thrilled when Bebo got the Filmfare Best Actress Award and my brother Rishi got the Lifetime Achievement Award, while my nephew Ranbir got the award for Best Male Debut. Now we are going to launch two films soon under the RK Films Banner with Bebo and Ranbir. Happy days are here again! My father and grandfather must be really proud watching our family from wherever they are!" read more...

Everybody's talking about Bipasha Basu! Her hot look in RACE is a turn on! Especially the eyes! The smoky look of the extended eyeliner a la Sophia Loren has sparked off a trend not only in the film industry but also in the modeling circle.
Sharmila Tagore was the first actress to have started that trend.
Bipasha has always been open to experiments. The actress has always tried out something new when it comes to her looks and character in films. RACE gave her a chance to experiment with different looks importantly playing with her eyes.
Bipasha said, "Eyes speak volumes! You don't have to say anything at that point of time! It is the eyes that talk! They say, "Samjhnewale ko ishara kafi hai!" Anaita has done a great job of styling me in RACE and trying to new make up trend by extending my eye liner." read more...
