Did Kangna go under the knife to enhance her assets?

Kangana Ranaut is playing her cards safe; she is no more a disturbed girl in her films. After playing a vivacious small-town girl in Tanu Weds Manu, she will be seen doing comedy in Sanjay Dutt’s first production Rascals. Not only has Kangana acquired a well-shaped body, she is looking bustier then before in Rascals promo, which also stars Ajay Devgan and Sanjay Dutt


The trailer shows her in a sexy bikini, wearing glares, followed by assistants, and one couldn’t stop raving about her better assets. The actress, who was pencil-thin, has indeed worked on her lithe frame. But many are of the view that it’s a gift from doc rather than God. Earlier, Kangana is believed to have gone under the knife for fuller lips, which were quite prominent in her films Raaz 2 and then Tanu Weds Manu. The actress blamed her pouty lips on a sea-food allergy while others thought it’s a bee-sting.


The movie also stars the handsome Arjun Rampal in a cameo role, while Ajay Devgan and Sanjay Dutt play the rascals. The movie was supposed to release in July but was delayed. Director David Dhawan was supposed to do Partner 2 first but because of the unavailability of dates of the actors involved with that film he started working on Rascals.


Watch the trailer below:

Smart Cookie

Kajal Agarwal is a clever young girl who is very ambitious and goes about her career with the astuteness of a professional chess player.



The petite star's clever strategy helped her land Magadheera, the most successful film in Telugu cinema.



Kajal is now applying the same tactics in Tamil cinema and Bollywood as well. In Tamil, she has Maatran opposite Suriya and in Bollywood, after Singham with Ajay Devgn which was a huge hit, she is sitting pretty.



Kajal somehow managed to bag the role that Anushka Shetty had played in the Tamil original of Singam that had Suriya in the lead.



Her role model is Kajol, Ajay's wife and a superstar in her own right. Kajal did not get to meet Kajol though she really wanted to, but it is certain that the two will get along because both have beauty and brains.

Survived coz of my will power: Vikram

He became a southern superstar after being in the industry for over a decade and actor Vikram says that it is his will power that has kept him going.

The 45-year-old Tamil movie actor, who made his Bollywood debut in Mani Ratnam's Raavan in 2010 said that he never gave up his struggle as he had faced a bigger challenge during his college days.

"I was riding pillion on my friend's motorbike and we met with an accident which badly injured my right leg," said Vikram.

He had to undergo 23 operations over four years to save his badly injured leg from being amputated.

"I was bedridden for three years and on crutches for one year before I fully recovered," he added.

Born as John Kennedy Vinod Raj, the actor tasted success after playing the lead role in Sethu in 1999 as a tough young man who uses violence as the only way to deal with people.

The actor was recently in Malaysian capital to promote his latest movie Deiva Thirumagal in which he plays the role of a mentally-challenged man who goes to court to seek the right to raise his young daughter.

The movie is based on Sean Penn and Dakota Fanning starrer I Am Sam, which got a Hindi remake in the form of Ajay Devgn-Sushmita Sen starrer Main aisa hi hoon.

Genelia out of the equation..

Genelia D'Souza will no longer be a part of Bol Bachchan.

Though Genelia was supposed to star opposite Abhishek Bachchan in this Rohit Shetty film, there were differences that cropped up between the makers and the actress to which this decision was taken.

A hunt is now on for the second lead in the film that has Ajay Devgn and Asin topping the cast with Abhishek joining in as well.

“For Genelia this could have been a ticket into a big Bollywood commercial film. In fact, she was banking on the film since Rohit has an impeccable record when it comes to delivering hits. Moreover the film is said to be a remake of a cult classic like Golmaal (the old one starring Amol Palekar), which means a successful outing was guaranteed,” said a source.

However, there were issues that cropped up before the film had gone on the floors.

“All was certainly not well between Genelia and the makers of Bol Bachchan. Genelia was not quite happy with her role as she felt she deserved better due to her reasonably successful stint down south.

“On the other hand, the makers were not too happy with her either. The differences did not seem to end and it was in the interest of both parties to call it a day.”

No one knows whether Genelia was asked to leave or it was the petite actress who chose to walk out. However, the fact remains that as of now there is a spot vacant for another girl to step in.

Since the film is looking at going on the floors pretty soon, it is currently a critical situation for Bol Bachchan to find an instant replacement.

“A decision has to be taken in a jiffy as Ajay, Asin and Abhishek have already allocated their dates and have to move on to their other respective projects soon.”

Singham and its controversy

Ajay Devgn starrer Singham raked up to controversy on the very first day of its release in the state of Karnataka on Friday 22nd July.

Protesters from Karnataka Rakshana Vedike tore movie posters and damaged facilities in theatres in Bidar, Hubli, Bagalkot, Raichur, and Bijapur, alleging that Kannadigas were portrayed in a disparaging manner in the movie. They were furious about a particular reference to Kannadigas being referred as dogs in the movie, in a line of dialogue delivered by Devgn.

Prakashraj, who plays the villain, has his origin in Karnataka and the controversial scene starts off with Prakashraj threatening Devgn that he would bring 1,000 people from Karnataka border to thrash him. Ajay (who plays Bhajirao Singham, a Maratha) retorts that one lion would suffice to shoo away a thousand dogs.

"This is an insult to Kannadigas," said an angry Suresh Kumar, a protester in Bidar.

Many theatres stopped the shows. The protests too came down after the distributors announced that the controversial dialogue had been removed.

Actor Prakashraj said that the dialogue has been misunderstood and blown out of proportion.

"There is nothing controversial about it. I am a Kannadiga. How would I allow conversations that provide pain to people of Karnataka in any movie in which I am cast?" he asked.

He added that in the view of public interest, the scene has now been removed.

Rohit Shetty's tribute through Singham

Rohit Shetty who paid a tribute to the 70s in his last, Golmaal 3 with Mithun Chakraborty's character is all set to take his 70's inspiration a step further in his next.

The Ajay Devgn—Kajal Aggarwal starrer Singham, Shetty has not just drawn inspiration but entire fight sequences from 70's blockbusters Amar Akbar Anthony and Zanjeer.

Ajay Devgn who plays a angry young cop named Bajirao Singham in the film titled after his character, will be seen enacting the same cuts and chops and mouthing the same dialogues in the film.

A source revealed, "The famous scene from Amar Akbar Anthony between Vinod Khanna a cop and Amitabh Bachchan the goon has been re-enacted in Singham.

The scene has Vinod Khanna unbuttoning his police uniform to beat up Amitabh. In Singham, Ajay Devgn who plays a cop, does the same to Ravi Beasant. In fact, the dialogue between Ajay and Ravi are similar to the ones between Vinod and Amitabh."

And that's not all. "There is a scene similar to a scene from the 1973 hit Zanjeer as well. The scene where Pran walks into a police station and tries to sit on a chair, which Amitabh Bachchan kicks away and says, 'Jab tak baithne ko kahaa na jaaye, tab tak chup chaap khade raho,' has been re-created in Singham. In this film, the scene has been picturised on Ajay Devgn and Marathi actor Ashok Samarth," added the source.

Seems like Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn are all set to recreate the 70s magic on screen with Singham. "Rohit wanted to pay a tribute to the 70's and also to the original angry young man of Indian cinema, Mr Amitabh Bachchan," said the source.

When contacted, the official spokesperson from the film confirmed the existence of the scenes in Singham and added, "They are used as a tribute to the films of 70's.

Rohit and Ajay have grown up watching these films. These are iconic scenes and we have tried to pay them a tribute through our film."

Kajal's clarification..

Kajal Agarwal who paired with Karthi in Naan Mahan Alla says that Ranjini is the perfect match for Karthi.

At that time, when there were news about Karthi's personal relation with actress Kajal Agarwal about their chemistry on and off the screen - both the actors brushed the news to be mere rumors.

At this point of time, when Karthi is engaged to Ranjini who hails from Erode District. Their marriage is to take place on 3rd July and Kajal Agarwal while speaking about this marriage said, “Karthi is my close friend. I have shared lot of things with him when we were working on the sets of Naan Mahan Alla. Karthi is a wonderful person and has selected a bride that is best for him and his family," ended Kajal wishing the couple in advance.

Kajal Agarwal recently clarified the misconception that sparked off the controversy stating "I didn't consider myself as just a South Indian actress as I desire to continue acting in both North and South Indian films."

The actress who was really shocked at the impact of one's misunderstanding on her statement expressed her likeness towards South Indian films that gave her the opportunity to start her career as an actress. Although this clears the air, Kajal is still waiting for a response from the film fraternity towards her clarification.

With her Bollywood debut with 'Singham' opposite Ajay Devgan hitting theatres very soon, Kajal is expected to join K V Anand's crew for the shooting of 'Maatran' opposite Suriya that will commence only in the second week of July after his younger brother, Karthi's wedding.

Ajay Devgn and Esha Deol clash..!

After Pankaj Kapur decided to postpone the release of Mausam to September 9, Singham was supposed to be the solo release on July 22. However, now the Ajay Devgan-starrer will face some competition from Esha Deol’s comeback venture, Tell Me O Kkhuda.

Earlier, Tell Me O Kkhuda was scheduled to release around September. But Hema Malini was quick to realise the fact that she should not take the risk of releasing her daughter’s comeback movie with the likes of Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, Mausam and Rockstar. The decision to pre-pone the release date was taken after a meeting between Hema Malini and the film’s co-producers. It was felt that Tell Me O Kkhuda is a family drama film whereas Singham is an action flick. Both the films, being of different genres, have the potential of attracting their desired audiences.

Hema is quoted as saying: “We are trying to work our way into July 22. The other film (Singham) is completely different from ours. After that Ramzan starts and then for Eid there are other big films lined up. So we would have to wait for September if we don't release on July 22.”

So, is it a smart move to clash a comeback movie with Ajay’s much awaited movie? Well, time will tell you oh Esha.

Kajol to hit Television again. .

Actress Kajol, who’s apparently going easy on films following the birth of her second child, may however make a concession for television it is learned. Buzz is that the actor is one of the strong contenders to do the second season of a popular food show that was first hosted by actor Akshay Kumar. The actor had recently confirmed that he would not be doing the second season as it clashed with another television show that he is currently hosting.

Following reports of Akshay not doing the show, rumour mills went abuzz with names that were likely to replace Akki, one of them being filmmaker-actor, Farhan Akhtar. But the latest is that actor Kajol too is being considered for the show. She apparently is in talks with the channel who approached her for the show.

“It is true that Farhan is also being considered for the show, but Kajol has an upper hand here as she’salways had a family image. It’ll be easier for the audience to accept her as a host after Akshay, whose plus point was that he was a chef himself. Farhan on the contrary has a multifaceted image and has already hosted a show earlier, but this show’s format is to do with food. Kajol, being a wife and mother, has a stronger identity that’ll blend with food and kitchen. Besides, she also has a higher mass appeal than Farhan.” says a source.

Should Kajol do the show?, it would be interesting to see her hosting the show at a time when hubby actor Ajay Devgn has agreed to host a show on another channel. But this isn’t the first time that Kajol, will be on the tube as the actor was earlier a judge on a dance show along with hubby Ajay and mom Tanuja.

Ajay's Fidelity

Bollywood is one place where people take it for granted that relationships are most fickle. And if gossip columns are to be believed then some actor is cheating on his or her girlfriend or spouse almost everyday. But actor Ajay Devgn, begs to differ and says that things can be hunky dory between a couple if they work towards making it that way. Ajay, who is married to actor Kajol for about a decade now, believes that once a person makes a commitment to another, they should honour it for a lifetime.

The actor recently went on a reality show and when he was quizzed if it was natural for a man to cheat on his spouse if a ‘hot’ girl approached him and caught him unawares, Ajay denied the entire theory.

A source who was present on the sets of the reality show that puts one partner’s loyalty to test, says that Ajay endorsed the idea of commitment to the core. “He was taken aback when he saw youngsters treat cheating as just another fad and said that if a person truly honoured his relationship, he should consider his love unbreakable. It was nice to hear a much married man, from the film industry give some sane advice for a change,” says the source.

“You are either in a committed relationship or you’re not. You can’t be committed to someone and also consider options outside the relationship. The whole idea of getting ‘carried away’ by someone else’s charm, while in a relationship, is absolutely ridiculous!” said Ajay while passionately talking about the importance of fidelity in a relationship in today’s day and age.

“Ajay looks like he has very modern views and he probably does. But when it comes to basic issues, he is a traditional man and he proved it by reprimanding a girl who was cheating on her boyfriend. Let’s hope she takes his advice seriously.”

Ajay's "Singham" first look

As soon as he was done with his Golmaal 3, director Rohit Shetty didn’t take time to announce Singham with his friend Ajay Devgan. Once again he chose Goa, his favourite destination for shooting and completed Singham in a record time. Now the movie is ready to hit the theatres on July 22 and its first trailer released today with Salman Khan’s film Ready.

Ajay Devgan is back and this time he is not doing comedy but has a serious business to finish. He will throw fists at the baddies, and will fight injustice. For Singham, Ajay has gone through extensive weight training to get a beefed-up look. The actor has pumped iron to get those rippling muscles that his character requires in the film. The 42-year-old actor will show his six packs in the film which were not at all easy to get. Ajay trained under the fitness expert Prashant Sawant for three months.

Singham, a remake of a Tamil blockbuster with the same title, is about a brave cop in a small town played by Ajay. Newcomer Kajal Aggarwal, who has given several hits in the south, gets to play the heroine in the film.

The movie has right mix of fun and emotions along with some jaw-dropping action scenes performed by Ajay.
