Well there’s little wonder that 2010’s most talked about and anticipated movie, Kites has seriously crashed and burned at the box office. Even before it could first soar into the clear skies of the Indian summers, it seems that the string was abruptly snagged and this ‘Kite’ has certainly landed in oblivion.
Indian audiences are known to be unforgiving to movies that are even the slightest out of the comfort zone. Tweaking the plot and making the promos look like a cross between ‘Love Sex aur Dhoka‘ and ‘Prince‘, didn’t make it work. Neither did the bare backs of the handsome hunk Hrithik and the beautiful siren Barbara. When the Indian audience has decided that it doesn’t like the movie… it simply doesn’t like the movie.
Let’s face it. If you remember the older days of Hrithik in some of the must-forget movies like ‘Main Prem ki Diwani Hoon‘ and ‘Aap Mujhe Acche Lagne Lage‘, you would also know that he doesn’t act. He has nothing to offer besides that deliciously chiseled body of his. After a while, even the weird dance moves start to seem repetitive. This year he did try to put in something new though – an alleged affair with co-star Barbara Mori. Well to be very frank, these Bollywood tactics have become so ghisa pita, that no one even gives a passing thought to such news anymore.
When it comes down to it, there are only two possible ways to sell Indian movies anymore. Either your surname should be Khan or it should be Chopra.

If Rakhi Sawant can why can’t Sherlyn Chopra. No Rakhi have not gone nude over a social networking site as Sherlyn but definitely used the stint of “Bad Publicity is Publicity” and so Sherlyn is following which she has also tried earlier.
These so called hot babes of Bollywood who have little in them when it comes to acting (see the act of Sherlyn in Dil Bole Hadippa) can go to any extent when it comes to getting the limelight. This time Sherlyn has overdone it by posting nude pictures on her Twitter account.
She said that she has been approached by American magazine Playboy to pose for them and she wants to share her photos (nude) with friends and followers and get reviews of how she looked. The photos she said has been shot by her best friend. Thanks that she has stopped sharing and put down the photos now.
“The feedback on my picture has been great. Some do find it distasteful. To them I would like to say – to each it’s own”, said Sherlyn. Sherlyn, if it is your own then why don’t you keep it to yourself…????

Bollywood babes are always fighting it out to come into the limelight when international events are concerned. Aishwarya, whom the glam world is about to forget and better suited as the Bacchan Bahu is struggling every time she confronts her younger counterparts.
After loosing it to Katrina and Sonam Kapoor, where she was replaced by both these beauties in some leading brands, she now looses it to the 5ft 11inch hot Deepika Padukone at the Cannes where the Boolywood battles have gone international in the true sense. Never mind if not for the right reasons…!!!
Aishwarya feels threatened with the recent interest of Woody Allen, a well recognized director, in Deepika Padukone after she sported the complete desi look with a white sari complementing her figure designed by Rohit Bahl at the Cannes where Ash went for the western look with a gown.
Earlier, the two had a fight about the best dressed and now grabbing attention at the Cannes. As an advice to Ash she should now retire and try to become a good bahu and follow the family tradition…

Girlfriend of the Bollywood ‘bad boy’ Sallu or Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif is seen attending marriages without her boyfriend around. This may be the clear indication of the increasing distances between the hottest couple in B-town.
Or may be lucky for every other actor other than Salman, Katrina did not want to make a unlucky appearance with Salman in the marriage of daughter of Bina Kak, Rajasthan Tourism Minister’s daughter Amrita whom Salman treats as his sister. Amrita who sang the song Just Chill in Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya tied the knot on 29th May in Jaipur.
The stars attended different ceremonies with Katrina going for the mehendi function along with ladies sangeet and Salman was spotted in the haldi ceremony. Both of them were found very much enjoying the functions. Katrina managed to fly out of the Pink City before Sallu had arrived…What timing…
Katrina was enjoying the functions of the traditional Rajasthani marriage so much that she was flaunting her creative side by signing autographs with mehendi. …perhaps she may be thinking that as a hobby….!!! You know you can never be sure with badde log !!!!
<a href='’ >Katrina Salman

Pritish Nandy flexes star power.
Filed under : Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Anil Dharker, Anupam Kher, Bitchiest, Chetan Bhagat, Dolly Thakore, Gulzaar, Pritish Nandy, Shashi Tharoor
Pritish Nandy is one smart businessman. Smart enough to know that poetry has few takers in today’s literary world.
So what does he do to grab eyeballs at the release of his book of poems titled ‘Again’? Elementary, my dear Watson! He turns on the force of star power, something he’s got in plenty, courtesy his standing with filmy types.
Sample this- the eclectic panel of experts assembled to sing hosannas to Nandy’s work comprised of- ahem- Anil Dharker, Anupam Kher, Chetan Bhagat and Shashi Tharoor. At hand to lend support were Dolly Thakore, Gulzaar- the who’s who of culterati. And finally the masterstroke- none other than Aishwarya Rai to do the honours of releasing the book. That would surely succeed in making everyone sit up and take notice. So there!
Brilliant move, I tell you! Nandy had the masses clamouring to get in, if only to get a look at the host of celebrities assembled at the venue. And Nandy looked as pleased as the cat that had got the cream!!
One last question….in the melee, did anyone remember that the function was about poetry to start with? Hmm……

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s getting cranky in his old age. Either that or the grueling shooting schedule of Guzarish has grossly stressed him out. Whatever it is, the notoriously short-tempered Mr. Bhansali is in dire need of some serious anger management.
Recently, on the sets of Guzarish, Sanjay was right in the middle of canning a shot when his cell phone had the temerity to ring. The irritable director picked up the phone and threw it down! Can you believe it? Just like that! Phew, what a temper!
Tch, Tch, Mr. Bhansali! Don’t you know that the best way to stop a cell phone from ringing is to simply switch it off? There’s absolutely no need to throw it down in anger.
No wonder all the technicians on Bhansali’s sets are in a perpetual state of terror, trying to gauge the mercurial director’s moods, so that they can duck in time the next time he throws something. Wot Say??

First there was Rakhi Sawant who did anything to keep her in the headlines, be it putting up a small temple in her bathroom or a public break up. We had just started to get used to the lull that she left, after her ‘Rakhi Ka Swayamvar’, but it seems that this lull was simply a lull before the storm. The storm that is Sherlyn Chopra.
Sherlyn started off in Bollywood much like Rakhi. The airhead bimbo that she is, she simply chose the wrong person to follow. Anyway, after an unsuccessful stint at publicity mongering in Big Boss 3, Sherlyn Chopra has unleashed the bomb. She has gone and posted nude pictures of herself on Twitter, asking for feedback from junta.
Daring, we say… but to what end? Does Sherlyn think that by posing nude, she will suddenly become the heartthrob of Bollywood? That all of a sudden, producers will line up outside her door, trying to get her to sign their movies? Well we don’t know what she has been thinking, but one thing is for sure… she has set new levels of cheap publicity. For this one, even Rakhi may have to give her a standing ovation.

No sooner than Amitabh Bacchan start his (mis)adventures with the Tweety bird, do we get to hear how he is proud of the fact that Shah Rukh Khan’s popularity on the social networking site knows no bounds… Recently, Shah Rukh crossed the 4,00,000 followers mark on twitter and guess who was most heartily congratulating him? It was none other than gramps Bacchan.
Bacchan doesn’t stop there. Just like Karan Johar’s melodramatic family sagas, which do not know when to end, Amitabh too went on to suggest a name for a country that might one day belong to the superstar.
“How about – “KINGDOM”, taking up from your own popular and deserving epithet of KING!”
This is what Bacchan tweets happily. Well, if we didn’t know any better, we would have thought that this was really from the heart, however we are none the wiser and all we can see behind this charade, is raw animal hatred. To answer back, the witty King retorted
“I have a name for your World Mr. Bachchan. The , thanks for letting us be a part of it sir. Love & health to you.”
Keep congratulating each other men, it gives us something to laugh about. Now wait a second, while I go and throw up some.

Our very own Mallika Sherawat (though she is trying to make Hollywood her home) was recently at the Cannes promoting her new movie Hiss by the angrez director Jennifer Lynch. She made a lot of news (typically her) as she danced with a snake (it seems the reptile too got smitten by the sexy lass!) at the Red Carpet. It is believed she had a gala time with the who’s who of the entertainment industry.
Sources say, the Jat girl was attending a charity event named “Cinema against AIDS”, a non- profit organization dedicated to AIDS research. Our desi kudi was the only Indian actor present at the event with celebs like Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony and renowned faces from the fashion world like Roberto Cavalli and Karl Lagerfeld.
As the story unfolds, Miss Sherawat paid ransom amounts to click her photos with the famous names. And as usual, most of them turned down her offer except Roberto Cavalli who was generous enough not to make the actress go home dejected…he complimented her by graciously kissing her hands.
But her dil maange more!! Not satisfied with one photograph, she went to the party princess Paris Hilton, but this party freak was not in a mood to entertain her desi version… According to sources, the Hilton heiress showed her disinterest by saying she isn’t familiar with her name (atleast somebody is!!) and throughout the party ignored her… Poor Mallika!
Wish they bonded well and gave us some mirch masala as well (imagine..Mallika Sherawat and Paris Hilton become best friends!!!)

Aishwarya Takes Dressing Up For Cannes to a New Level… Literally!
Filed under : Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
Do you remember the simpler times, the times when Aishwarya Rai Bachchan didn’t make a fool of herself at Cannes? No? Well, it figures. While the father-in-law is busy writing about how politicians are making his life hell and hubby Abhi is busy being a ten headed monster, Aishwarya has been left alone to fend for her hornet’s nest, oops… hairdo. Seriously, when was the last time she was ever appreciated at one of these award functions?
I mean what’s wrong with Ash? What’s with all the throwing of kisses in the air? Was it for the benefit of the media, which it seems went into fits of laughter after seeing her walk the red carpet. For all we know, the media was going crazy photographing her weird hairdo for the ‘Bloopers at Cannes’ page! But it’s hard to get Mrs. Bachchan down, definitely hard with her hair towering so high up on her head! Which brings us to another question… What was L’Oreal thinking? Of course they wanted Aishwarya to stand out since she is their brand ambassador, but to add miles to her height, only with the hairdo, well… requires some guts and as always, no brains.
Here’s to Aishwarya, may you never use your brains when dressing up for the Cannes Film Festival.
