Aamir Khan
Aging stars can’t afford to take anything for granted, more so their six-packs. And who better to know that than Aamir. The diminutive actor has realized it belatedly to his cost.
Three months of taking it easy on the workout front and Aamir has gained a whopping 7 kg - weight that has made marshmallow of his six-packs. Aww, how sad!
Poor Aamir has a song shoot scheduled for 21st September with super fit Kareena, and he doesn’t want to look fat, flabby and aging beside her. He’s been hunting high and low for a trainer who’ll help him lose the flab in three weeks in distant Europe (where he’s vacationing).
Aamir, sonny boy, when you’re fast nearing fifty, your metabolism is the first thing that deserts you, to be followed by your six-packs, hair, muscles, the audience and your fans, not necessarily in that order.
Don’t believe me? Ask four-pack Shah Rukh. He’s been there, done it all and yawn, lost it all too!

Kissing up and lip service in Bollywood
Filed under : Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, Aruna Moorty, Bitchiest, Deepika Padukone, Kareena Kapoor, Karishma Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Saif Ali Khan, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Shahid Kapoor, Vivek Oberoi
Though Aamir Khan locked lips with Karishma Kapoor more than a decade ago, Bollywood’s still not comfortable with kissing.
While Kareena kissed Akshay Kumar 10 times for good measure in Kambakkht Ishq, boyfriend Saif settled the smooch score with Deepika in Love Aaj Kal. So did Shahid and Priyanka in Kaminey.
Among the unkissed majors, are Shah Rukh and Salman. Till now, they have gotten by without resorting to any serious smooch tactics, and SRK seems to be getting along fine. But maybe Sallu Bhai needs some lip service apart from all the interviews he’s frantically giving and the TV shows he keeps popping on these days. He’s spent a lot of time bullying his girlfriends – past and current – and now his forehead’s getting broader by the day.
Vivek Oberoi, his pet foe, – yeah, he’s still alive – has already taken the cue and has apparently smooched Aruna Moorty for verrrrrrrrry long in his forthcoming movie Prince. Methinks the magnitude of his desperation is directly co-related to the length of the kiss. Aamir’s kiss in Raja Hindustani was a pretty long one and maybe Vivek’s hoping to kiss his blues away similarly. I do pity Miss Moorty for her ordeal.
It’s nice to see Bollywood come a good way from the clumsy hugging and groping, but I think it’ll be some time before kissing becomes a part of the plot and not inserted forcefully for its cheap thrill value.

Rakhi has seen steep decline in her popularity in last two seasons….and she is really not happy about it. Remaining in news for all wrong reasons has always been her focus. Yep! This Rakhi is not too bright where these these matters are concerned. Now no popularity stunt seems to be working for long for Rakhi…has she missed her lucky charm somewhere (did I hear Abhishek?).
This Rakhi babe knows that she features no where in the film promos of Dil Bole Hadappa and she’s getting desperate. In a recent incident she starts blabbering I owe my career to Jesus, blah……blah….. Last time it was Sidhivinayak. I am sure next it will be Gurugobindsingh or Ajmersherif.
Then she gets audacious and says Maine iss film mein bharpur kaam kiya hai - we got you Rakhi, now that can simply be translated to mean “I have shown my cleavage more than before”.
Take a chill-pill Rakhi!! Maybe some crazy, new publicity stunt idea might hit you after a relaxation session – worth trying haan?

They’re making fun of SRK everywhere! We started it and now it is the Yankees turn! Shah Rukh Khan’s detainment at Newark Airport and the uproar it created has become fodder for America’s top comedy shows. Check out this video of Jon Stewart on The Daily Show putting the issue in the right perspective. Need we say more?
PS: I think he was just being over smart (that’s normal for him) when he thought of this hare brained idea to pump his movie. You have much to learn from Aamir, SRK.

And the buzz about Aamir is that he is an active member of several social networking sites such as Facebook, Orkut and Twitter. So what’s new about that? Nothing, except that he interacts with youth on these sites under a pseudonym, a common one for all sites. That way he gets to peek into young minds and understand first hand their reactions to films, social issues, sports and other fields. Rather like the emperors of yore, who would roam as commoners to understand their loyal subjects.
Hmm, so that’s how he’s managed to make such great youth-centric films as Rang De Basanti and Jaane Tu…
All I can say is that Aamir is really the master of the game, net savvy, youth savvy, and miles ahead of his rival Khans….and that’s why he is my favourite Khan!
PS: And the next time you get a message on Facebook from an anonymous friend, asking you how you feel about the next Aamir movie, you know who could be at the other end!

Never mind who’s saying My Name is Khan, we know who’s the real deal, at least in the virtual world. And he doesn’t even have to blog or tweet his claims to fame.
Ladies and gentlemen: Salman Khan is the king khan on the internet! According to a recent survey, he’s the most searched Khan among Shah Rukh, Aamir, and Saif.
I must say it’s somewhat of a revelation that he’s beaten SRK to it. I would have guessed that controversy-shy and intensely personal Aamir is clearly not in the race, neither is Chote Nawab, of course (name says it all, eh?).
All news has certainly turned out to be good news for this Khan. All those controversies he always find himself in have gone a long way in building brand Salman Khan, and what a brand it is… Bring ‘em on, Sallu Bhai, and don’t you mellow down. It’s bad for business.
