Air Head Asin Could Face The Wrath Of Khans If She Doesn’t Shut Up Soon!
Filed under : Aamir Khan, Asin, Bitchiest, Rakhee Sawant, Saif Ali Khan, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan
Asin amuses me. No really, she does. In fact, I am sure that a lot of others are equally amused with her. I, of course, am not talking about her uber hamming skills or her plastic ‘oh-I’m-so-adorable-and-nice’ persona. I am talking about her mouth at which she apparently has no control.
After being pounded by the media so hard for her suddenly-acquired attitude, I am surprised that the lady is still going great guns. Frankly, these were characteristics that I would previously only have attributed to Rakhi Sawant. But not anymore. Asin’s coming very close to Rakhi when it comes to drama and I am really not even kidding!
After she managed to get Salman upset with her, she’s now denying self-concocted rumors of her affair with Salman. Uh… Asin, did you just try to imply there that Salman would prefer you over Katrina...? You didn’t? Because it seemed like you just did. If you haven’t got the point yet, here it is again. You’ve irked Salman off and even if you believe that he’s having an affair with you (enough to have to deny to the media!), there’s no reason you should say it out loud.
Of course knowing Asin, she wouldn’t stop just there. She’s elated with her start off in Bollywood.
“I started my innings with Aamir Khan and I continued my good spell with Salman. That is two Khans down, two to go (Shah Rukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan).”
Watch Out Khans! The arrogance of the statement is enough to raise anybody’s eyebrows. But not mine. I have learnt to expect this from Asin. After all, if no one’s talking about you in Bollywood, you have to take on the task yourself. You start by having an imaginary affair with a screen icon, then leak it to the press and proceed from there to posture yourself arrogantly and pretend that you are a legendary screen goddess in the making and every popular actor will soon be lining up to star with you.
Here’s some advice for you lonely girl Asin, play with your dolls and enjoy yourself but know when to shut up and stop babbling about your fantasies — remember, you’re only pretending in that little make believe world you call your mind!

When Ashutosh Gowarikar made Lagaan, no one complained about the length of the movie. It was a great movie and the viewer watched the saga of the village cricket team with rapt attention.
Then came Swadesh. It was refreshingly simple and it may have kind of dragged a bit at places, but it was sweet and the viewers were inclined to forget the length of the movie. The NRI and his effort to give the village electricity was a heartwarming tale.But it lasted wayyyyy to long!
Jodha Akbar was splendid and the sheer large scale of the movie made it an epic so we yawned our way to end just to see the climax. Once again Ashutosh managed to get away with a long movie without any one complaining too much but we are reaching saturation point.
Look Ashutosh, not to burst your bubble or anything dude….but have you ever heard of something called editing? Seems as if What’s Your Rashee? is yet another snooze-fest and this is cause for concern. This movie does not have either the taut plots like Lagaan and Swadesh, nor does it have the epic substance of your Jodha Akbar. So tell me why would anyone (with a life) want to sit through a half that lifetime watching an already over-exposed, synthetic Priyanka throwing out 12 different versions of that vapid, colorless personality? Get my drift? Back to the editing room!

Smiles and camraderie eh ladies?
Put two aging and feuding beauty queens together, in the same movie and you’ll expect feathers to fly right? Well nothing of the sort happened when Sushmita Sen and Lara Dutta were given co-starring roles in the David Dhawan comedy Do Knot Disturb.
Thankfully both self-appointed divas realised that no one’s really interested in exploiting some old, stale catfight that may have happened years ago (yawn…who cares?) and were able able to push aside their differences and give professional performances. Good move ladies. You are no longer in your prime and neither one of you counts as an A list, in-demand actress.
You must have realized that with sexy, young controversial tarts and starlets clawing their way into the Bollywood limelight, it is best that you practice some age-appropriate behaviour and act with dignity and self-respect. It might earn you some much-needed acting roles in the future and it saved us from having to endure another dull, insignificant and media-overblown hype story about nothing at all.

Ekta Kapoor can give the best Harvard educated marketing gurus a run for their money. Call it marketing chutzpah or sensationalism, but this babe sure knows how to grab the maximum eyeballs for her shows.
Her latest marketing stunt to publicise the launch of her new serial takes the cake in that department. Word goes that she called about 200 newcomers, all aspiring to get into a Balaji serial and asked them to kiss a stranger of the opposite sex passionately on the lips.
Her ruse was that the new show had a lot of steamy, intimate scenes and required characters who were comfortable with smooching. To twist the biblical saying, Ekta decreed – Kiss And Ye Shall Get (a role)!
That surely had all the poor newcomers flummoxed! Some just refused point blank, while some, hungry to get into a Balaji Production, gamely followed the dictates.
And no doubt, Ekta invited a few presswallahs to witness the auditions….the most convenient way to get free publicity in the best newspapers and upping viewers’ anticipation at the same time!
Still have doubts as to why Ekta’s called the Queen of Sensationalism?

Shilpa Shetty is starting work on her home-production – an all-girls action film starring Bipasha Basu and herself in parallel action roles a la desi Charlie’s Angels. Aargh, noooooo….!!!!
Shilpa’s career has been in the doldrums for the longest possible time. She’s taken to selling poppadoms and chicken curry now to keep herself busy.
Even Bipasha is in the twilight of her career. Take a peek at her recent films- super-duds in Aa Dekhen Zara and Goal, and a bit role in Bachna Ae Haseeno where she doesn’t even get the hero in the end. Her only hit in a long, long time was Race and even they’ve chucked her out of Race-II. Poor thing!
So when two have-beens come together, what do you get- a movie that’s gonna set the box office on fire?
Naah! What you get is the biggest dud of the year, lots of precious moolah down the drain and a rotten egg of a movie.
What do you think???

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.

I wonder how the Bollywood directors get these actors to actually work. Look at Bipasha Basu for example. She will shed all her clothing, save some few threads here and there for a scene that ‘demands’ nudity, but she will not smoke on-screen. Not even if the role really demands it. What’s that about Bips? We know you’ve turned health conscious since packing on the weight after your breakup with Dino Morea. But do tell us your real reason for being so difficult…. if you can actually think of one!
Bips isn’t the only one with the tantrums here. Kareena is almost as bad. She willingly filmed intimate scenes with Saif for her upcoming film Kurbaan but then asked directors to cut the scenes out from the movie!
I don’t get these girls at all. Are you throwing these silly tantrums so that people will notice you? Good god! Kareena, people might talk about you more you if they actually saw your intimate scenes with Saif. And for you, Bipasha people might notice you more if you actually learned to act girl!

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor at last seem to be realizing that we’ve really had too much of them off-screen to see more of them onscreen. So, Saif is being extra cautious now about what movies he will work in with Bebo as his leading lady.
They have already done Omkaara together, and Agent Vinod and Kurbaan are slated to be their next joint appearances.
Omkaara, based on Othello, had a strong storyline, Vishal Bhardwaj’s clever direction, and foot-tapping raunchy music. Also, we were still not subjected to the Saifreena effect then.
But now Saif is justified to be a little wary about acting against Kareena, especially after what happened with Tashan. Also, methinks, now that he has gotten to know Kareena well, he may have realized the fact that her value is limited to being eye-candy. (And that’s saying really too much for Bebo.)
He’ll have to do her bit of the acting, too, and Saif knows that very well. At the same time, if he does not do a movie with her once in a while, his love life is probably done for.
Well, Chote Nawab, we don’t envy you, not one bit.

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!

Ever since Akshay Kumar’s ‘Singh is King’ was a hit, Bollywood has seen a fad of Sikh Heroes. Immediately after the hit, Sallu Bhai portrayed the raging army wallah in ‘Heroes’ and later Saif played the shy, ever in love sardar in ‘Love Aaj Kal’. Now following in their footsteps is Ranbir Kapoor.
Now in his next movie, Ranbir plays a Sikh boy and sports a beard. Yes they are absolutely real (for those of you who think he can never grow a beard!)
Ranbir, I heard, can’t wait to get rid of his facial hair. I am also sure that Deepika wants her chikna back! Me too!
