Preity: No problem doing Hollywood movie!

Bollywood actress Preity Zinta has no qualms in signing up a Hollywood venture; however the role should be an exceptional.

Preity presently in UK for shooting of Sajid Nadiadwala's 慗aan-e-mann'. Recently Preity and Nadiadwala addressed a joint press conference at the Bentley Hotel in London in connection with the launch of the movie which would be released world-wide on October 20.

In the press meet, Preity said she's unlikely to work in a Hollywood production unless an exceptional role comes across.

In 慗aan-e-mann' Preity will play the female lead and Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan will fight over her. Recently Preity shot some romantic scenes with Salman Khan at London 's famous Tower Bridge .

For the first time, Preity was shooting in the UK. She said, "As a kid I was so exited about London and the Tower Bridge ."

Aishwarya抯 new stand: No more film with Abhishek?

After Rani, who recently turned down Goldie Behl's film because it has Abhishek Bachchan in the lead and she doesn't want any more gossip about her relationship with Jr. B, it's now Aishwarya Rai, who's too taken a decision like Rani: that's no more film with Abhishek.

As per rumours, Aishwarya is willfully delaying producer Bunty Walia's project 慗ust Punjabi'; every time Walia contacts her, she asks him to wait sometime more because, as she says, she's now too busy with her international projects and cannot give dates to Walia.

However industry grapevine insists, Aishwarya, who initially gave her nod to Walia, is avoiding now because Abhishek will play lead in the film and Aishwarya doesn't want to do any more film with him.

However, at present, Aishwarya is doing two films with Abhishek

Why Bipasha refused film with Emraan?

Bipasha Basu was approached for doing Parvin Babi's role in forthcoming 慦oh Lamhe' which focuses Parvin's alleged relationship with filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt. However Bipasha turned down the offer and newcomer Kangana Ranaut stepped into her shoes.

As per Bipasha, she refused the film because of actor Emraan Hashmi, who was supposed to play opposite her. Though, later Emraan too backed out of the film because he felt that he does not have a very strong role in the film. And Shiney Ahuja got roped in.

In a recent interview Bipasha said, it's not a kiss-phobia or anything like that, which scared her to pair up with kiss king Emraan. 揑 am way too tall and big for him and it wouldn't look slick,

Not 慒anaa

Sridevi to comeback!

If everything goes right you can see Sridevi on screen again and that too with her 慚r. India' hero Anil Kapoor. Yes in the time, when making sequel to an old day's hit has become a craze, director-producer Boney Kapoor isn't however out of this rage.

Recently the ace filmmaker announced his plan of making a sequel to his blockbuster 慚r. India'. It will also mark Sridevi's long-awaited return to movie. In 慚r. India ' 2, Anil and Sridevi will play the older couple

Akshay-Nana fight wasn't real  

This is hard to believe. But writer-director Anees Bazmi, whose new romantic comedy "Welcome" is hurtling to a completion, claims that the showdown between Nana Patekar and Akshay Kumar reported a few days ago was nothing but a case of the reel being mistaken for the real.

"The fight that people saw was actually part of a scene that Nanaji and Akshay were doing together. To make it look more real we decided to let them do their own thing instead of allowing the action director to orchestrate the two actors' moves.

"During the on-camera scuffle, things got a bit out of hand. Bas, people put their own versions of the story together," Bazmi told IANS.

Bazmi, poor guy sandwiched between a temperamental veteran and an egoistic star, admits the supposedly cinematic scuffle looked like the real thing to bystanders.

"But it's not possible for Akshay to altercate with someone so senior and respected," protested Bazmi. "He respects Nana too much to even raise his voice except for the camera."

Incidentally, this isn't the first time that Nana has got into a situation with a co-star. He has had a long history of altercations.

Bipasha's No to Serial Kisser

Bipasha Basu, who was approached for Kangana Ranaut's character in Woh Lamhe refused the role because Emraan Hashmi was cast opposite her.

It was not Emraan's kissing images that troubled her but it was just that she thought she would look taller and bigger than Hashmi.

揑t抯 a fabulously written script. After a long time, a strong role was coming my way, essentially a woman-centric film. The only problem was the pairing.

Your fave Kareena movie?

While Kareena Kapoor celebrates her birthday on the beaches of Goa, it's time for her ardent fans to glance at her career.

She has given us some fun movies like Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai, fun characters like Poo (in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham), lots of drama in Dev and Kyon Ki, and breathtaking beauty in Omkara.

As the promos of her sizzling dance sequence in Don air on Indian television, Kareena's oomph value has gone more than a few notches higher.

Indian actor Bobby Deol rejects kissing scenes in movies  

MUMBAI, India Bollywood actor Bobby Deol has never kissed on the big screen, but his fans may yet see him pucker up.

The 38-year-old actor has acted in more than 20 Bollywood movies but always turns down kissing scenes because he feels awkward.

Deol told the Mumbai Mirror newspaper he "can't do kissing scenes."

"Although I have said 'no' to them so far, you never know about the future," he said. "My golden rule of living is never say never. That way you don't have to eat your words."

Deol's family is well-known in India's movie business. He is the son of Bollywood veteran actor Dharmendra, his elder brother Sunny Deol stars in action and romantic movies, their stepmother Hema Malini is a famous Bollywood actress and stepsister Esha Deol recently entered the film industry.

Most Bollywood films didn't show full-blooded kisses till the 1990s. But kissing has become common with a growing number of directors aiming movies at India's expanding urban middle class and South Asians overseas. But most movies are still mild by Western standards.

Kareena having a whale of a time in Goa

Its Kareena Kapoor抯 birthday today and she抯 having a gala time in Goa. Bebo has taken some time off and just wants to relax with close friends and family on the beach, she informed a tabloid.

Well she has ample reasons to party. Be it the success of OMKARA, the Smita Patil award that was recently conferred upon her, LAJJO opposite Aamir Khan or the much-hyped number 慪eh mera dil

Aishwarya Rai sneak into the semis,Preity,Kajol and Rani move ahead.

Aishwarya Rai maintained her unbeaten run at the Most Popular Bollywood Star 2006 contest here at desifans.com as she beat her long time rival Sushmita Sen in a somewhat closely fought contest to reach the semi finals.

The contest was swaying Sushmita Sen抯 way till the halfway and then Ash leaped forward in the last few days to win the round 54:44. The Dhoom2 girl meets Fanaah girl Kajol in the semi finals. Kajol after a dream comeback in Faana is still in the hearts of thousands of fans. She proved that by winning her quarter final round by beating beauty queen and much younger counterpart Priyanka Chopra comprehensively in a 67:33 margin.

Bollywood hot and sultry bomb shell was not much of a fight for the hugely talented Rani Mukherjee. The bengali actresses fought it out with Rani, the queen she is, winning 61% of the total votes. In another quarter final, Preity Zinta just walked over Kareena Kapoor winning more than 72% of the popular votes. With the hits lined one after another, Preity surely has a huge number of fans .. and even in her semi final match, she is leading over Rani by a decent margin.

So what if Rani stole her man in their latest hit Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, here at desiFans.com Most Popular Bollywood Contest 2006, Preity is going much stronger than Rani. The semis ends Wednesday 27th Sept and we are sure it will be a tough fight between the popular fight.

Over the years, Aishwarya Rai has won the hearts of millions and like every successful celebrity, she has been at the receiving end of some criticism and some people do not like her much. And as happened with Salman Khan and even Shahrukh Khan , we feel a lot of negative votes are going towards her opponent. The initial trend of votes in the Sush-Ash was something that hinted towards that but Ash managed to win the round and is strongly placed in the semis leading against Kajol. With around 50,000 votes deciding the winners, a small section of negative voters cannot sabotage the real winners. With a few days to go.. lets see whats in store !!

Sushmita Sen rocking with ZINDAGGI ROCKS!

Sushmita Sen is quite excited about having worked in ZINDAGGI ROCKS produced by Anurradha Prasad of B.A.G Films with Tanuja Chandra as the director. In fact this is the fourth time that Sushmita says she has had the privilege of working under the direction of a woman director. Earlier she had worked with Meghna Gulzar in FILHAAL, Farha Khan in MAIN HOON NA, Kalpana Lajmi in CHINGARI and now with Tanuja Chandra in ZINDAGGI ROCKS.

Talking about Tanuja Chandra, Sushmita quips, "Tanuja Chandra is one of our intelligent filmmakers who likes to project realism in her films even while maintaining the format and the idiom of the commercial mainstream Hindi Cinema. What I like about Tanuja is the fact that she is a very obedient teacher who picks up the colloquial dialogues, which we tend to use in our day-to-day life. The comfort level I had as an actor was very evident when I worked with Tanuja in ZINDAGGI ROCKS."

Sushmita literally eulogizes Tanuja Chandra. "I think Zindaggi Rocks is Tanuja's finest work till date. If you as an actor have a personal equation with Tanuja, half the battle is won on the sets. Tanu is a very good actor too and is very clear about what exactly she wants as a director from you as an actor. Technically Tanu is quite a progressive director and sets out to juxtapose between Close Ups as well as Cuts. Her strength is to give you several layers when you perform even when the scene is a silent one."

Sushmita is also full of praises for her producer Anurradha Prasad who she says gave Tanuja a free hand to extract the best out of all the performers in ZINDAGGI ROCKS. "Anuradha is an experienced producer even though this is her first film as a producer because earlier she has to her credit several quality TV serials as a producer.

ZINDAGGI ROCKS is a rocking film with women at the helm of affairs. If Anuradha is the producer, Tanuja is the director and Moushumiji and I are the actors. In fact Moushumiji has played a double role for the first time in her career stretching almost three decades. I could learn a lot after observing her at work at close quarters."

]Sushmita readily admits that to a large extent, she could identify herself with the character of Kria that she has played in ZINDAGGI ROCKS, which by the way is slated for release all over the world on October 6. Kria, according to Sushmita, is loud, mad, pathologically friendly, a musical genius, an extremely popular singer and also a woman who does not take "no" for an answer. Basically ZINDAGGI ROCKS deals with the mature love story between Kria who is a rock singer (who also has the responsibility of bringing up her twelve year old son, who is smarter than men who are twice his age) and Dr Sooraj Rihan, played by Shiney Ahuja who she meets when she is admitted in his hospital.

Sushmita confesses that all that she did to get into the skin of her character was to question Tanuja and follow her instructions, of course at the same time using her natural instinct. "Whenever I tended to go off the track, Tanuja used to bring me back to the nuances of the character of Kria. Kria isn't just a rock-star because to her, being a rock star is just a way of life. Life is a celebration for her and the film has been narrated from the point of view of the doctor."

Well, with such 'rocking' words from Sush, watch out for ZINDAGGI ROCKS coming soon on October 6th!

Sushmita Sen paints, fetches 25 lacs and then donates it  

Sushmita Sen is an all-rounder. We all know she is an extremely talented person. Not only can she act very well, she can paint with equal 閘an. Recently, Sushmita Sen painted a painting called Ibaadat and she put it for auctions to raise money for charity.

But the price that the painting fetched is phenomenal. She sold her painting for Rs 25 lacs. But Sushmita being the extremely nice human being she is, she donated the money to former Pakistan cricketer, Imran Khan抯 cancer hospital in Pakistan. Well, keep it up Sushmita.

Sushmita paints only for herself and her close friends. This is the first time when she displayed her paintings for the public. If this is the kind of response she gets, she sure knows what to do after retiring from the film industry.

I am proud to be part of DON! - Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka Chopra is upset at a news report claiming that she had been confiding to close friends about her unhappiness on sharing the limelight with hotties Ishaa Koppikar and Kareena Kapoor in the forthcoming DON. Both of them have been appreciated in the 'Main Hoon Don' and 'Yeh Mera Dil' tracks respectively.

It seems Priyanka was not pleased about sharing poster space with her female co-stars and with their high presence in the film's television publicity.

In her defense, Priyanka emphatically clarifies, "The rumour is absolutely baseless and silly. I've been out of town for nearly three months on work, shuttling between countries and living out of a suitcase. Do I look insecure? I'm so proud to be a part of DON. It was a great opportunity to work with such a fantastic bunch of professionals - Shah Rukh, Ritesh and Farhan. I hope to work with them again. It's among the highlight films of my career."

When asked about sharing the limelight with Kareena and Ishaa, she shot back, "I've worked with Kareena before. She's wonderful and adds to the star value of the set-up. Even Ishaa is very good in the film. I really wish people would stop creating fire when there's none!"

Point noted, people?

Rani replaced Madhuri!

Rani Mukherji stepped into Madhuri Dixit's shoes. As per latest Rani Mukherji has been roped in for 慞arineeta' director Pradeep Sarkar's next. However Madhuri Dixit was first approached for the role. Producer Yash Chopra even had agreed to shoot the entire film in New York fulfilling Madhuri's condition. But the thing didn't work out finally, it's however another reason. As per industry grapevine Madhuri opted out because of Vidya Balan, who will play another lead in the film and possibly, due to her alleged relationship with its director Pradeep Sarkar, will get more focus than other. The same reason, Rani also initially refused the role. But when Yash uncle requested her, Rani couldn't say 憂o' to him and singed up the film. The film will have Saif Ali Khan playing the male lead. Also Shabana Azmi will be seen in an important role.
As per source, the yet-untitled film will go on floors in November.
