Akshay Kumar
The Khan and The Kumar are at it again. Fighting? No more like peacemaking. Akshay Kumar and Shah Rukh Khan have been seen improving their relationship over the past year. The apparent BFFs have now been seen bonding again. Recently, even after Akshay’s ‘Housefull‘ crashed and bombed over at the Box Office, Shah Rukh sent him a ‘cheer up’ message, commending his performance in the movie.
Both the movie and Akshay’s performance in it were completely dismal. Yet, Shah Rukh Khan sent off the message. Makes us wonder if Shah Rukh’s mom dropped him on his head when he was still young. Or maybe Shah Rukh needs some back scratching. Since he is rather on tense terms with almost all his colleagues, maybe he’s trying to turn over a new leaf and show the world, that he’s capable of loving another man, except of course, himself and KJo !

Let’s face it. Shilpa Shetty’s love life may be all hunky-dory but her professional life’s definitely seeing red. She has all the makings of a Bollywood diva. She’s beautiful, she’s leggy, she’s dumb, she’s been in a reality show and managed to win it and she’s even had an affair with a super star – Akshay Kumar. Unfortunately for her, she’s never ruled Bollywood like many before and after her.
Still, you have to give it to her for trying. In the fag end of her career, she’s managed to belt out a reality show victory overseas. With that, she’s also managed to rage controversies by being generous with her kisses. Now she’s all set to get married to a multimillionaire. Things are going her way it seems, but not quite.
Bollywood success still eludes her. That’s still a race where she’s nowhere in sight. She may be pinning her hopes on this last one where she’s paired up with the old and sagging super screamer Sunny Deol. She’s even postponed her marriage for this. Of course, dear old Sunny coaxed her into it… but what’s a little nuptial delay when fame and success are on the line for two faded, almost forgotten Bollywood also-rans.
Needless to say, anyone with a sense of humour would be curious about this ‘fame and success’ which both Shilpa and Sunny are envisioning because the last I checked, no one really gave a damn about either of these showbiz losers. It’s not as if fans (what fans?) are waiting with bated breath for their next offering.
Shilpa honey, take my advice and tie the knot with your millionaire fiance as soon as possible instead of chasing these pie-in-the-sky dreams of big time Bollywood fame and fortune. It isn’t going to happen in this lifetime! And you may well end up losing Raj Kundra in the process when he finally wakes and realizes that he’s just a consolation prize you’ve settled for reluctantly because the bigger Bollywood fishes just didn’t bite in spite of your best efforts over the years.

Akshay Kumar Comes Clean After His Shocking Arrest For Public Obscenity
Filed under : Akshay Kumar, Twinkle Khanna
The best of us can be taken down a peg or two when the media takes its shots. Normally, this would be the order of the day for most people, except of course for some seasoned punchbags like Salman Khan. However, Akshay Kumar is making no mistakes. He’s got a huge reality check after being arrested for obscenity in public and stoutly condemned by the media after getting his wife onstage to unbutton his favorite pair of Levi’s.
I think wife Twinkle says it all!
I didn’t know that the gesture would create such an uproar. I don’t want to go to jail again, so no such retakes for that shot.
Akshay Kumar reaffirms his wife’s claim. So there’ll be no unbuttoning of jeans in public anymore and those drooling women who have been dying to see him drop those slim fits will have to make do with their imaginations and pin-up posters. Awww…. what’s life without a little sugar and spice and something nice from ol’ Askhay who’s still smokin’ hot in spite of his age?

Any movie starring Akshay Kumar has to be a hunk-babe fest. When he’s in a movie, the glam quotient rises by default. However, something’s gone amiss in Blue. Nope not the Kylie Minogue – Akshay Kumar ‘Chiggy-Wiggy‘. It is the hulking Sanjay Dutt whose look has gone all wrong in the movie.
Lara is looking hot, Akshay as usual smoking and even Zayed is looking quite steamy. Sanjay of course is another story and this, he has realized himself. He is looking rather… old and fat.
Ordinarily, that wouldn’t be a problem. However, when you’re sharing on screen space with hunks like Akshay and Zayed, it’s enough to send even the most good looking of men into jitters. So we don’t blame Sanjay for feeling a little insecure and shall I say a little threatened?
You might see a little change in Sanjay’s waistline and hairline after the film is finished though. Technology and careful editing can work wonders you know and not many will be willing to offend a volatile, heavyweight like Sanjay Dutt. Oops…I think I just did!

After creating much bad blood all over Bollywood land, Shah Rukh Khan is now trying to make things right by extending his olive branch everywhere. Recently, Shah Rukh Khan went apologizing to Aishwarya, hoping to work with her again. Then after he was mauled by the media for creating the ruckus over his detention at Newark, he has been trying to set things right in the light of his upcoming movie My Name is Khan.
It seems that the king has run severely short of publicity stunts. Why else would he go around visiting fellow actors on whom he never even cast a glance before? Though Akshay has always maintained that SRK was the real king indeed, I never knew that they were on such good terms. Now you see photographs of the two superstars together on the sets of Blue. These two are definitely setting an example for others to follow but knowing Bollywood as we all do, something just doesn’t sit right.
Bearing in mind there are also big projects for both SRK and Akki lined up for release, I can’t help but wonder if both of them have come together because they have exhausted all the cheap hype options they are allowed as aging male Bollywood bigwigs. Unlike the femme fatales like Rani Mukherjee or Mallika Sherawat they are not allowed to flash a little boob here and there or saunter around in teeny-weeny bikinis for drooling camera men. So poor ol’ SRK and Akki must keep their pants on and squeeze the phony BFF/nice-guys publicity ruse for all it’s worth. Ah, life can be an *itch sometimes.

In his forthcoming film Blue, Zayed Khan was promised a solo song, – yes, all by himself – by Tony D’Souza. The song was to be shot last, so Zayed baba waited, and waited, and waited…
Only to discover that his solo song was no longer solo, but had the entire cast of Blue in it! This upset our lil’ Zayed so much that now he’s refused to appear in the song altogether. Tut… tut… too bad he won’t be missed.
Amidst gushing tears, he managed to say, “I’m learning my lessons the hard way. In this industry, the big fish always end up eating up the little fish. Fine. Hopefully, one day I’ll get there.”
Two corrections, Zayed: First of all, in Blue, you are up against the likes of Sanjay Dutt and Akshay Kumar. These are much worse than big fish, they are piranhas. Second, after you’ve been gobbled up by them, how can you ever get back at them? Think practically, Zayed: when you are professionally non-existent how can you fight back?
Also, considering the amount of money that’s typically invested into each song-and-dance sequence in Bollywood, I wouldn’t blame D’Souza if he didn’t want to leave anything to chance. After all, Zayed, everyone doesn’t have baap ka paisa to fall back on, do they?
If I were you and was fast becoming history, I’d be grateful even for a cameo. But some people never learn.

Bollywood hypocrisy, male chauvinism and a fast fading Preity Zinta
Filed under : Akshay Kumar, Bipasha Basu, Bitchiest, Karan Johar, Priety Zinta, Rani Mukherjee, Salman Khan
Faced with the onslaught of the twenty-something brigade, another top actress bites the dust. This time it’s pretty, the dimpled lass- Preity Zinta. Poor Preity has no films in hand other than the mediocre Heaven And Earth. Even good friend Karan Johar, with whom she did Kal Ho Na Ho and Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, has stopped casting her in his films. So what does an out of work, aging actress do? Elementary, my dear Watson. She simply jumps onto the item number bandwagon. Yes, Preity’s doing an item number in Salman Khan’s Main Aur Mrs Khanna. The bitter truth is that it’s a man’s world and Bollywood is a cruel extension of the truism. Grrr, it gets my blood to boiling point that the aging Khan Quartet and the equally aging Akshay Kumar are still going great guns, running around trees with girls half their age, while great actresses of the calibre of Rani Mukherjee, Preity Zinta and Bipasha Basu have fallen by the wayside. Oh, the injustice of it all…… Bollywood is still light years from Hollywood where older actresses like Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston get to sink their teeth into meaty roles. And till we get there, if we ever do, our actresses will have to make do with ‘Main Aayee Hoon UP Bihar Lootne’ and other nonsensical numbers……grrrrr!

Welcome to the circus that’s Askhay Kumar’s life. Let’s see what we have here… drool worthy raw machismo…? Check. Wrestling Crocodiles… check. Jumping from cliff tops… check. Regular brush with controversies… check. Celebrity wife… check. Angry ex girlfriends… check.
Akki is no doubt living the ‘Bollywood Dream’. Even though his career’s nose dived into flop comic roles that don’t do anything for anyone, Akki’s still noteworthy for the awesomeness of his luck. Well why else would he be in a multimillion rupee successful reality series, surrounded by babes and beauties from all over the country? What else would a guy want, especially a guy like Akshay, who’s been known for his ‘waywardness’.
Now with the second season of ‘Khataron Ke Khiladi‘, Akki’s all set to show the world his mean side. Of course, when it comes to women, being mean comes naturally to him. Don’t believe me? Ask Raveena Tandon… She’ll tell you!

You may remember television actress Rupali Ganguly from the first season of reality show Big Boss. The babe was seen elaborately moping around for the entire duration of the series till she was finally kicked off the show. Oh! If ever tears could have turned into rivers, she would have definitely drowned in her’s and perhaps it would have been good riddance.
Now, defying everyone’s and perhaps her own expectations of herself, she has had a somewhat successful stint in Khataron Ke Khiladi – Level 2 that is hosted by Akshay Kumar. But wait, the moping has not ended yet. The poor girl is now moping around because she has worn… wait for it… a swimsuit! Shocked? Rupali is not only embarrassed, but also dead worried about how she would look in the swimsuit. Rupali, it’s so simple. Go wear a swimsuit and stand in front of a mirror and mentally add on 10 or 15 pounds and then imagine the viewers seeing a microscopic close-up of all your flaws. That’s how you would look in the final cut on high definition television. Hope that information allayed your fears and insecurities. There…there…feel better now?
As for your being embarrassed about wearing a swimsuit, don’t be, because no one will be seeing you anyway. The audience always switches channels or goes to bed early once you are carded to appear on TV. So what is there to worry about? Yawn!

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.
