Hrithik to doodle in a Yankee accent
In Rakesh Roshan's Kites , too, to be produced by Anurag Basu, Hrithik is putting in his all. Starring opposite the lovely Barbara Mori, the actor is working hard to get an authentic Yankee accent. "A trainer comes to Duggu's house everyday. And is there for over an hour. Hrithik is forever listening to the accent required for the film...by watching movies, or then listening to dialogues... he has sheets and sheets which he keeps reading out aloud in the required accent," says a friend of the actor.
So, when you meet the actor next and notice a twang in the accent, you know where and how he got that from!

In fact, taking the doctor's advice into consideration the organisers too suggested that Kats should just take it easy and not perform at the show. But Kats being Kats, popped in some antibiotics and was on the go! It was all rock and roll from then on.

Ash has German measles
A source reveals that Ash hadn't been keeping well ever since she returned from the IIFA awards in Bangkok earlier this month. After complaining of fever and bodyache for several days, Ash landed up with German measles.
Pa-in-law Amitabh Bachchan confirms the development and says, "Yes, it's been a while. But she's almost out of it."
Adds the source, "Ash has been advised complete bedrest. Since the virus takes its own time to subside, there isn't much she can do. She's cancelled all her appointments."
Another source close to the family adds, "Ash's condition has improved now and she's on her way to recovery. This is the first time she has been affected by measles."
What is German measles?
Rubella, commonly known as German measles, is an infection that affects the skin and lymph nodes.
It is caused by the rubella virus (not the same one that causes measles), which is transmitted by droplets from the nose or throat that others breathe in.
It can also pass through a pregnant woman's bloodstream to infect her unborn child.

VO to dance with six Russian Beauties
It is learnt that after Vivek got a good response to his performance at IIFA Bangkok. Mission Istaanbul producer Sunil Shetty and director Apoorva Lakhia were so impressed by Vivek that they decide to shoot a solo track with him.
The song is Apun Ke Saath Jo Ladega with Mika Singh rendering the track. It's an offshoot of the Aye Ganpat song in Shootout At Lokhandwala.
Says Lakhia, "Sunil and I decided to give Vivek the song choreographed by Rajiv Goswami. Originally, there was no solo song of Vivek's as he plays a Turkish commando so we couldn't have him singing and dancing around trees. He danced so well at IIFA â it was as if he wanted to prove he could dance too."
Is there any truth to the buzz that Vivek was feeling insecure and had fought with Apoorva as he felt Zayed Khan was being promoted more?
Says Apoorva, "Earlier, people were saying we were not promoting Vivek enough. That wasn't true. It's just that Zayed has a romantic angle and had two songs with two different girls. Vivek has never come to me with any complaints.
This is our second film together. We are friends and share a pretty good relationship. Now we have decided to promote only Vivek's song and not the Vivek-Zayed number. I have to be fair. It's a two-hero film."

Punk'd by Abhishek
On the sets of Dostana, John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra saw this side of the actor. Although his co-stars were polite enough to keep their reactions to themselves, not everyone found his pranks funny or cute.
An eyewitness recalls how the actor pulled a fast one on a spot boy working on the film.
"Abhishek went up to him and pretended to be very angry. He told the boy that he was unhappy with his attitude. After beating him for a few minutes, Abhishek took two steps closer to him and pretended to slap him really hard on his face.
In reality, what he did was slap his own hand but to everyone else on the set, it appeared like he'd slapped the guy, stunning the onlookers."
Abhishek has a kitty of pranks. Describing one of his other favourite pranks, a source adds, "Often, when a scene is going on, Abhishek pretends that he's got hurt and asks for the shot to be cut. He gives the impression that his co-star has injured. Everyone on the set rushes to him and then he reveals they have been punked!"
However, Abhishek's pranks on the sets are now getting boring, "It's getting a bit too much. Initially, everyone was falling for it, but now they just don't react to him anymore," concludes the source.
Maybe, Abhishek needs to come up with some original pranks.

Adi is Unhappy with the final outcome of 'Bachna Ae Haseeno'
The film starring Bipasha Basu, Ranbir Kapoor, Minissha Lamba and Deepika Padukone is directed by Siddharth Anand (Salaam Namaste, Ta Ra Rum Pum).
It is learnt that Aditya wasn't satisfied with the final outcome.
An industry source says, "Yash Raj's recent movies have been bombing at the box-office.
As a result, Adi has decided to re-shoot portions to better the project. After Adi saw the rushes of the film, he wasn't too happy with the final outcome."
The insider adds, "He has taken over from director Siddharth Anand and started re-shooting vital sequences to save whatever he can."
It is also learnt that as the film is slated to release in August, it is proving to be an uphill task to re-shoot and get all the stars together again.
Yash Raj's media spokesperson, however, maintains, "Only a promotional video for the title track is being shot, the film is not being re-shot."
The promotional video for the title track has been inspired by Ranbir's father Rishi Kapoor's chartbusting track Bachna Ae Haseeno from Hum Kisise Kam Nahin.
Continuing the tradition of showcasing the first look of their upcoming films with their latest release, Yash Raj Films unveiled the promo of Bachna Ae Haseeno with their latest, Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic.

Shahid shoots for KISMAT KONNECTION promotional video
Not just content with the great response that his dance number 'Ae Pappi' has got amongst music lovers, he has now gone ahead and shot for a special promotional music video for the film. The number in question is Atif Aslam sung 'Bakhuda' that has been on the music channels for last fortnight. However, this time around, it is 'remix version' of 'Bakhuda' which is the center of attraction as it has been shot entirely on Shahid.
Picturised on indoor sets where Shahid is at the center stage with only a mike for company, the music video of 'Bakhuda' shows the young actor in a rock star avtar and truly adds on to the youthful appeal of the film.

Love Story 2050's grand world premiere on July 2 in London
Bollywood Hungama spoke to an excited Harman who shared all the details of the grand premiere, "I am really looking forward to the world premiere of my film Love Story 2050 in London. The premiere is on Wednesday July 2, 2008 at the Cineworld theatre in Feltham. This is the same place where the premiere of Krrish was held few years ago"
But why London for the premiere? "It was something which we had planned six months in advance. I believe my entire team has already done a lot of promotions in India. There are many Indians living in London who are as much into Bollywood as we are and we thought it would be absolutely unfair for us not to come there and share our film with them and hence we decided to have the world premiere in London. So far I have received an extremely warm response from people in London, be it through e-mails or phone calls and I am really looking forward to the premiere"
So who all are going to be present for the special night? "Well myself, Priyanka Chopra, Boman Irani, Dad (Harry Baweja) and Mom (Pammi Baweja) would be there along with Mr. Khetarpal from Adlabs (who are also the producers of the film). Besides, I have a lot of family members in London. I am a Punjabi so there are lots of distant relatives of mine who stay in and around London. They are all really excited about the premiere happening there and even I am looking forward to catching up with some of my cousins after a long time."

Shemaroo, the dvd company, has tied up with various mobile operators to offer Shilpa’s Yoga content for download, to mobile phone customers.
The videos have been cut and edited such that each video captures one complete Asana. The Asanas are categorized according to the benefits they provide like Back Asanas, Stomach Asanas, Neck & Shoulder Asanas and Pranayam [Breathing] among others. Also on offer are detailed write-ups explaining the benefits and description of each Asana. Apart from these videos, consumers can also have Shilpa Shetty in her Yoga poses as their mobile wall-papers and screen-savers
Shilpa Shetty shared her thoughts saying, ‘I have made this product with a lot of passion; it is my first production venture and am proud of this product. Unlike other fitness regimes, we do not have to rely on equipments for practicing yoga; we just have to rely on our self. The objective of Shilpa’s Yoga is to make ‘practicing yoga’ simple for people. I am completely overwhelmed by the beauty and power of yoga. It is a lifestyle choice.’
With this, it looks like ‘ Mobile Fitness’ will be the next lingo to catch on !!!

I’d rather be called sensuous: Vidya
Praise her, and you hear a humble “Oh God! That’s such a boost to my ego.” Tell her she’s beautiful, and she comes up with an emphatic “Thankkk you!” As if she really needed a confirmation! Gravity in her voice when she’s talking, broken by frequent peals of laughter, Vidya is, simply put – a bundle of joy.
And all this when, “I have been travelling and haven’t even slept.” Add to that the stress of promoting Kismat Konnection, fighting rumours of link-ups with Shahid and constant remarks on her dressing, Vidya has learnt to take all of it in her stride, and happily.
“I guess the media is seriously starved of news on me,” laughs Vidya on controversy revolving around her dressing sense in Kismat...(once again) post Heyy Babyy. “People have nothing more to discuss I guess. Heyy Babyy was an aberration. But this time, I actually had so many people telling me that there’s nothing wrong in that Kismat... dress. In fact, it’s nice. Anyway, I’m not thinking that anymore.”
However, we insist, do actors have no say in deciding what they'll wear in a film? “Of course we have a say, but I hadn’t used it so far. This time, I’ve exercised my say completely.”
Not just her dresses, scouting rumours about any affair between Shahid and herself is another bother. “Linking me with Shahid is preposterous.” But then didn’t we have her quoting a while back that ‘there’s someone with the alphabet ‘S’ in her life’? “Oh! Can that only mean Shahid? I have so many people in my life whose name starts with ‘S’. In fact, those days when I had quoted this, I meant my ‘girlfriend'’Saloni who was down from the US.” Now, whoever imagined that it was a girl!
All right, with all these rumours add to the great onscreen chemistry that’s showing in the Kismat... promos, ask her if she’s prepared for comparisons between her jodi with Shahid to the one he shared with Kareena in Jab We Met? “Firstly, thank you for praising our chemistry,” she smiles, as she adds, “I’ve always shared a good on-screen chemistry with all my co-actors, including Shahid. Shahid and Kareena may have had a good chemistry in JWM, but that doesn’t bother me.” But to atleast avoid the constant link-ups with co-actors, the best that she does is, “I disconnect with my co-stars beyond a point. Or I wouldn’t talk much to them for the fear of what’s being said or what’s unsaid. The rest I really can’t help.”
From comparisons about on-screen jodi to a size-zero figure, Kareena’s enviable figure, (that’s almost set a trend much like the six-pack ab of SRK) doesn’t even fit in her list of discussions. “We’re not a part of the herd that we have to look similar. Each has his own style and that makes one liked or the other disliked. It’s more important to look healthy.”
And she believes that strictly, given the quote in one of her previous interviews that ‘I don’t want to be called sexy.’ “Yes, I mean that. Sexy is now equated with shedding clothes, just like glamour is equated with wearing Western. But I think I looked both sexy and glamorous in Parineeta, despite my Indian look in the film. Sexy is all about the appeal one has in his eyes. But since that’s not how it’s perceived, I’d rather want to be called sensuous than sexy.”
For those waiting to see more of her, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Chenab Gandhi with Amitabh Bachchan and Vishal Bhardwaj's Ishq Kiya are next in line after Kismat...!

Rockers Ahoy!
Producer Ritesh Sidhwani confirms, "Yes we are looking at an option where we will have a series of concerts starting from August (Rock On releases on August 29) across Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata and Hyderabad. They will be known as Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy Rock On concerts with Farhan singing live the songs of Rock On and the rest of the cast joining him on stage. Currently, we are working on the venues and logistics."
It was Abhishek Kapoor's idea to make the lead actor actually sing and not just lip-sync the songs. "Farhan plays the guitar and after every shoot we would sit and jam with him. So this role was right up his alley and him actually singing makes it more authentic."
It was director Abhishek Kapoor's idea to make the lead actor to actually sing and not to lip-sync the songs.
Ritesh continues, "The film's music will be launched on July 7 at Infinity Mall in Andheri where Farhan will sing live. The rest of the cast and the music directors Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy will also be present. It's a different way of marketing and promoting the film.
As the film revolves around a rock band, we thought a series of rock concert would work in branding the film and since Farhan has sung five out of the nine songs in the album it would also be an interesting way of promoting the film.
Farhan Akhtar adds, "I'm very excited and yet nervous about performing in front of live audiences. I have only done jam sessions at home with my friends. But yes, I'm growing with confidence everyday thanks to an amazing and brilliant teacher in Shankar who has been giving me voice training exercises. I don't know if I'll become an actual rockstar or not as people make stars. But yes, I'm confident about singing at these rock concerts today."
About Rock On
Farhan plays the lead singer of the rock band while Arjun, Purab and Luke are the instrumentalists of the band. Rock On is a story about the friendship of these four friends. Music plays an important role in their lives and their journey 10 years up and down. It's male bonding like Dil Chahta Hai but in a different way, surroundings and situation.

Rani to showcase just one outfit in 'Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic'
"I wanted to create an iconic figure. If you look at Superman, Mr. India, Gabbar Singh and Mogambo, they all wear the same outfits in their films," Kunal Kohli, the co-producer, director and writer of the film said on the phone from Mumbai.
"I don't know whether it would succeed or not but that is what I wanted," he added.
Her outfit is a one-layered affair crafted by fashion designer Manish Malhotra. The film, starring Rani, Saif Ali Khan and four children, was premiered on Friday.
The film also gave Rani the opportunity to enact a scene while suspended in midair.
"It was for the first time that I got to hang from a harness while shooting for the film. I was very excited," Rani said.
The film revolves around four children and a man whom they hate - till God sends down an angel to sort their lives out.

Katrina Kaif's big bungalow in London
Our well-placed source says, “Katrina bought a very spacious bungalow in the Hampstead area of London early this year. From roles that were only an appendage to the heroes, she has evolved as an actress in the top bracket. But, she is not the type to spend her money foolishly. She decided to invest wisely by buying a house for her family.”
Adds the source, “Her mother and sisters originally lived in a small apartment, which wasn’t too comfortable for such a large family. So Katrina wanted to buy a bigger house for them. It’s the least, she felt she could do for them. She misses them very much, back in Mumbai.”
When contacted, Katrina did not deny that she has purchased a bungalow in Hamstead area of London.
Though she told us that the bungalow is a very beautiful, she refused to give any further details. She said, “I would prefer not to talk about it, it’s a personal affair.”

Rani needs thoda magic
Having ruled the roost for the past few years by giving hits like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Saathiya, Chalte Chalte, Yuva, Hum Tum, Veer Zaara, Black and Bunty Aur Babli, Rani’s films in the recent past have comparatively failed to rake in the moolah at the box-office inspite of her packing in some stupendous performances.
Rani’s attempt at playing versatile roles post Black however didn’t get fructified. Paheli, Mangal Pandey - The Rising, Baabul, Ta Ra Rum Pum, Laaga Chunari Mein Daag all failed to give Rani the feedback she had expected. The films did mediocre business, thus shaking Rani from her number one spot.
In spite of her affiliation with India’s number one production house - The Yash Raj banner, Rani is striving hard to retain her position. “Rani hasn’t worked with other banners for quite some time and is looking forward to doing so, as she wants to try out different things right now. She also wants to try and work with different co-stars. She has always worked with Abhishek and Shah Rukh and now wants to do something different” said our source who is close to Rani.
With Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic all set to release, we hope it casts a magic spell on Rani’s ongoing stagnant performance at the BO and elevate her back to the spot where she belongs...

Harman Vs Priyanka
The Love Story 2050 couple took up the challenge. Sure, I provided the fodder for the conversation but the rest is all their own bakbak. Read on for a heart-to-heart between Harman and Priyanka.
Priyanka: Tell me about your first love story/relationship.
Harman: A love story is different from a relationship.
What do you mean? What is the difference?
A love story is a story of love, which is quite different from a story of a relationship.
Guys get into a relationship when they are in love, right?
(Interrupts) I can be in love with someone but not be in a relationship. Anyway, my first love was my Std 5 school teacher in Jamnabai. Should I name her?
(Shocked) No, no, don't. She was your teacher, who probably has grandchildren by now.
Yes, she will feel embarrassed.
Okay, tell me about your first love story?
I was in class seven and this guy was in Std 10. He used to live above my house and I use to sit in my garden admiring him.
What happened then? Did you manage to speak to him?
Noooo! His brother ended up getting a crush on me (laughs). Actually, I used to speak to his brother thinking I will get to talk to his elder brother but the younger one started liking me! Very sad and to top it all, he wasn't even good looking!
How old were you when you had your first crush?
It was in school, I think! You could buy a Crush for six rupees!
Gosh, I knew you would come up with this!!!!
(laughs) Right.
My first crush was my Spanish teacher Maestro Cardona in Std 8!
See, I am ahead of you.
You are always ahead of me in everything.
And what was that Spanish teacher's name? It reminds me ofâ¦
I know where you head is running. Maestro means Mr in Spanish...
Let's talk about your first kissâ¦
My first kiss was with my dog. His name was Elizabeth Taylor.
Your first kiss was with Elizabeth Taylor! Interesting!
Your first kiss?
My first kiss was...
(Interrupts) Your first human kiss...
That's not fair.
You didn't specify, I am specifying.
My first kiss was when I was lying naked in bed and someone's wife came up to me....
And she turned to be your father's wife....
(Laughs) Yes, she turned out to be my father's wife. Shockingly, even her husband kisses me.
Okay, who was your first official girlfriend?
My first official girlfriend was in school and I won't take her name. PM is all I would say about her. I was in Std 8when I asked her out and the relationship lasted for around nine months.
Good boy! (pats him)
And yeah, I used to always meet her in the evening because she was PM and not AM. Sorry, bad joke! What about you?
My first official BF was when I was in Std 9, when I was in America and he was a year senior to me.
You are into older men!? Actually I think most of the girls are into older men.
Last official girlfriend?
RDC is the initial and it was during my college days.
After that you never had a girlfriend?
(Laughs) Officially, no! Unofficially, many (winks)
Well I was 17 when I had my first official relationship. I don't know whether it worked but it was good overall!
I think it never worked.
I am sure yours did, so shut up.
I think I know the reason! It was becauseeeeee....
Shut up, shut up (hits him) Let's talk about something else. Define me in five words.
You define meâ¦
C'mon.
Hmmmm (thinks), damn difficult question
You don't have "FIVE" words to define me??
Actually, there are so many, don't know which five words to shortlist.
Honest, trustworthy, forgiving
(Horrified) FORGIVING??!!! ME?
Actually unforgiving, sorry (laughs) Unbelievably caring and perfect. Now your turn.
Sensitive, great sense of humour, thoughtful, focused, and a family man, who loves his family, and they are a priority.
What is Love Story 2008, according to you?
Love Story 2008 is actually Love Story 2050.
Let it be Love Story 2008, 2030 or 3000, for me, its only and only Love Story 2050. Your favorite on-screen couple. Bollywood and Hollywood?
Holly: Brad Pitt and Angelina and Bolly: it has to be Shah Rukh and Kajol.
My fav Bollywood jodi is Salman and Bhagyashree and in Hollywood it's Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman
Tell me what does love mean to you?
Love means everything. Love defines everything a human being does from the time you wake up till the time you sleep. Love is something you enjoy. I love acting because I enjoy acting. Actually, I think I am still discovering love, it may be love for my family or my work...
Love is the only emotion in the world that is constant. You can take away a feeling or some or the other emotion at some point of time in your life but love will always remain for someone somewhere.
Has your definition of love changed over the years and how?
Love is a constant emotion. I don't think the meaning has or will ever change.
I am still discovering love. I am still under the process. Though I say I love my parents but still here are so many emotions, which yet need to be discovered. Love is a constant change in our life. Such an antithesis, na!
Your favorite romantic film?
DDLJ. Yours?
(Looks at Priyanka) Maine Pyaar Kiya. Okay, which co-star would I look best with?
I haven't yet seen you with any co-star as yet, so I think you look the best with me.
(Thinks) Of all the co stars you have worked with, I think you really looked cute with Sunny paaji in Hero. You were superb. It was just like Beauty And The... (whispers) I am very intelligent, I won't say it out aloud...
You better not.
Working out with buddies or working out with a lover?
I hate working out. It doesn't really matter whether it is with buddies or a lover or a trainer.
That's your answer??
(Laughs) Ya.
That's my answer. Now your turn
(Thinks) Hmmm, it has to be a lover. You get that bonus time to spend with your lover. I would want to spend as much time as I can with my lover and I think this would be one of the best times to give and take quality time from each other.

Akshay’s spoof act doesn’t go down well with Adi
It is learnt that Akshay made his entry on stage clad in a turban and a long coat. He burst through the ceiling and sliding through a poster that says, 'My last film' and the words 'Flop' written all over it. After crashing through the poster Akshay goes on to humour the fact that Tashan flopped and says, ""Maa meri film flop ho gayi hai ab mein kya karoon? Mera price kam ho jayega, no one will want to work with me... Maa ab mein kya karoon?"
Even though the act was in good humour and Akshay didn't name Tashan, it was obvious which film he was referring to. A source reveals that after Aditya heard about this specific act, called Akshay and told him it was in bad taste.
"Adi heard about the act after the award function got over. He wasn't too happy that Akshay was one of the actors who made fun of his own film. The failure of Tashan hasn't gone down too well with him and he doesn't really want to have any memories of the project."
Apparently, Akki who thought the whole act was done in good humour was surprised to get such a reaction from Adi. "IIFA was full of spoofs this year. Tashan wasn't the only film that was made fun of. The hosts Riteish Deshmukh and Boman Irani spoofed many films. However, Adi was peeved because Akshay himself participated in the act despite being a part of the cast."
Various sources also add that post Tashan, there have been cold vibes between Aditya and Akshay.
The Yash Raj Films spokesperson maintains, "Nothing of this sort has happened."

Akshay Kumar will sport a rugged and suave look on Fear Factor
Akshay Kumar dons a new look to play his part as the host of the show. His new look is definitely making heads turn! Always unconventional and defiant, Akki's new rugged look complements his striking action hero personality!
Styled by a London based designer, the fashion forward line includes unusual hooded jackets, contemporary scarves, and trendy ankle length boots. Not to forget his wicked and rugged personal style with his military crew cut, salt-pepper stubble and of course designer aviator glasses that perfectly complements the look. Tall, athletic, and extremely handsome Akshay will also sport a leaner body, courtesy Khatron Ke Khiladi's wild stunts!
Forget the red carpet tuxedo and bow tie, Akshay's winning look is all about living life by your own rules! The look is a perfect synergy of his bold personality and his role as anchor of the new reality show with death-defying stunts. Commenting on his new avatar, Akshay Kumar's said, "I wanted to show all my 'COLORS' through my new style, Akshay's personal style… I don't want to look like someone else to be cool. What you see is what I am; from laughs to tears, to dangerous stuff, ladies and cheetah…It's just me, myself and all my scarves."
Another attraction of 'Fear Factor - Idea Khatron Ke Khiladi' is the 13 Bollywood beauties that the show brings together, who'll compete with each other, to be the last-one-standing.
