DELHI PRESS MAGAZINES : WOMAN'S ERA

The antalising Tanishaa who was last seen in a comic role in One Two Three is all set with two totally different roles, in two totally different language films! The actress is playing a Bengali wife and stars for the first time ever with her mom Tanuja in a Bengali film directed by award–winning director Gautam Haldar! On the other hand, Tanishaa will soon be seen next opposite Abhishek Bachchan where she plays a traditional demure Maharashtrian wife for RGV’s Sarkar Rajalong with the Bachchan family.
Katrina Kaif who got less than a crore for Namastey London produced and directed by Vipul Shah,has signed a two-film deal with Indian Films for Rs 6 crore. And she is also doing a film with Subhash Ghai along with boyfriend Salman Khan. And Katrina is not getting busier as an actress only. She has also been made a brand ambassador for Pepsi Co. for its mango juice drink. She will also be the face for Slice Mangola,the local brand of Slice in Mumbai.
Actor-turned-director Ajay Devgan’s debut-making film U Me and Hum revolving like Aamir’s film Taare Zameen Par around a sick child has been appreciated by the critics. He has shown the film to Mr L.K. Advani also. The film has fared well at the box office?
After his long bout of hibernation from movies after Filhaal, Palash Sen is euphoric about his role in Sahara One Motion pictures’ Mumbai Cutting.Palash does an interesting role in the Manish Jha-directed story of Mumbai Cutting. Admitting that it is the script of the Sahara. One venture that made him want to come back to the silver screen Palash asserts that it is the “extremely good and gripping script” that made him take the call. “I am not an actor. I don’t feel the need to run after roles. After Filhaal, this was the best script I came across. It was a nice opportunity to get back to acting and I just grabbed the offer.”
For one reason or another, the film career of Esha Deol is not making the desired progress in spite of her PRO’s intensive campaign to keep her in the news. Surely, the lady believes in continuing her efforts.
Tejaswani gave the scene her best shot. “Retake,” yelled Shashnk Gosh. The light was not what he wanted. “He is a man with a vision,”says Tejaswani though she gave six takes to get the right light. “I merely followed that vision. And it was not easy to look desirable on camera and cope with my bodyaches at the same time. But that is something that I think we actors go through at some point or the other.”
Let alone stars like SRK, Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar who are being paid in crores for a film,directors like Priyadarshan and Anees Bazmee also are asking for and getting Rs 10 crore for a film.Anees Bazmee is directing one of the costliest films Singh Is Kinng with a budget of Rs 85 crore.
Bebo’s super-skinny, hot look in Tashan has brought her bouquets and brickbats. Young teenagers are trying to copy Kareena’s cool look in the film just like it happened with Jab We Met earlier and, of course, her appearance in Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. Tashan’s Pooja seems red hot to some and anorexic to others!Her look has caught the eye of the industry and endorsement wallahs alike and designer Aki Narula, the man behind the magic, is hounded by clients asking him to give them ‘the Bebo look.
Big B planted a tree at a tree planting ceremony jointly organised by UNEP, Unescap, and the Indian embassy with IIFA in the premises of the UN building in Bangkok. This is the first time Bachchan visited the UN premises.He was joined by Noeleen Heyzer,UN under-secretary-general and executive secretary of the economic and social commission for Asia and the Pacific, and Latha Reddy, the Indian Ambassador to Thailand.
It can be said almost without any fear of contradiction that Aishwarya Rai has closed the Salman Khan chapter in her life. While the future is always shrouded in mystery, as things stand today, she shares good vibes with Vivek Oberoi. The latter must indeed have taken the first steps towards winning her heart when he presented her with as many as 40 gifts on her last birthday. Good vibes must have got further fillip during their shooting for the film Kyon, Ho Gaya Na, a film which they have just completed in lead roles.
To host a party on their son’s birthday is nothing unusual for parents. But an element of surprise can add a lot more to the fun. And that is what Amitabh Bachchan did on Abhishek’s birthday this time. Not only Amitabh went himself to fetch his son from the shooting, when the twosome arrived home, Jaya Bachchan was waiting to receive them with a bevy of filmland celebrities to wish the birthday boy many happy returns of the day.
Former beauty queen Lara Dutta did an item song for Raj Kumar Santoshi’s Khakee which, according to her, left quite an impression. However, she would like to desist from doing more item songs. While on Lara, she claims to have done her own stunts in Vikram Bhatt’s Elaan. Really? She should not be so foolhardy and must recall that Dimple Kapadia had suffered a hairline fracture while shooting for a film and was bedridden for quite some time.
Sanovar Kabir’s career came to a dead stop with the flop of her first film, though she had entered Bollywood with Sawan Kumar’s film Mother.
Beaten Sanovar turned to the small screen, with the serial Karishma. When this serial could not bring any work for Karishma Kapoor herself, what could have been in store for Sanovar?
Seeing the craze for pop and remix, she even turned a singer in T-Series’ Return of Kanta. Succeeding at nothing, now Sanovar has started dancing in music videos and is doing item songs in films. Recently, producer-director Afzal Khan filmed a sexy song on Sanovar for his Ajay Devgan, Sanjay Dutt, Manisha Koirala starrer Mehbooba.
The craze for cine couples has always been there in Bollywood. It might have been Amitabh-Rekha or Dharmendra-Hema. Today’s hottest pair is that of John and Bipasha. This couple’s only two films — Jism and Aitbaar — have been released so far. A survey conducted on the Valentine’s Day, shows that cine-goers consider the John-Bipasha pair as the hottest one. A reason might be that the media has widely splashed the stories of their romance.
Dancing her way through the music video Kaliyon Ka Chaman, Meghna Naidu might have looked fat, but with enough body exposure, she has become the topic of discussion. After Hawas, Meghna has bagged another film, Husna. Under the prestigious banner of the Sultan productions, producer Faraha Ahmed (Sultan Ahmed’s wife) is all set to exploit the magical youth of Meghna Naidu. The film is directed by Amit Sinha. Through Husna publicist-journalist Dhirendra Jain and Anoop Srivastava have also become a producers. Husna is the second bold film of Meghna. She says that the film tells about a very ambitious girl who uses her charms to fulfil her dreams.
Priyanka Chopra’s entry into films was with body exposure in Andaaz. Again, she has enacted hot bedroom scenes with Akshay Kumar in Abbas Mastaan-directed film Etraz. According to Priyanka, every heroine has to present a sexy image today. With the making of films like Jism and Khwahish, such scenes have become common.
