Raveena and Tabu back on screen together

Raveenatabu150909_1

They had their own on-screen ruling days when they changed their course to make only occasional appearances. Now, Raveena Tandon and Tabu will grace the screens again soon and that too together.

Raveena and Tabu will be doing a film directed by a Bengali filmmaker Shoumik Sen, titled ‘Gulab Gang’. Now one might wonder about this title… well, it is because the movie is said to be based on a 500-member women gang who wear pink saris and fight injustice against the oppressed. “The story is based in UP. Gulab Gang is on the lines of Omkara as it has a similar set up,” said the make-up man turned producer Subhash Singh.

‘Gulab Gang’ also has Shahana Goswami and Mahie Gill. Now going by the casting list that has mostly women, the movie too is a women-oriented film, a subject which the director wanted to do for a long time. And the spice is that these ladies are up for some dhaamal! Because, the movie has given space to few actions and violence that are said to be on the lines of the Hollywood flick 300, sources revealed.

It is also said that Raveena will be featured as the popular politician Mayawati. And it was she who had come up with the movie’s idea to the producer. ‘Gulab Gang’ will be produced under Hari Om Productions and the shooting will start in November.

We welcome these talented and impressive actresses back. These days rare are such actresses who present a distinct aura like them. 

Lisa Ray diagnosed with deadly cancer

Lisa-Ray-cancer-patient

Lisa Ray’s blog ‘The Yellow Diaries’ revealed the news that the model-turned-actress is suffering from Multiple Myeloma - an incurable cancer of White Blood Cells.

On 8th September, Lisa posted, “I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma on June 23rd. Started my first cycle of treatment July 2nd.Notlong ago.”

The actress continued, “For me, it was a relief to hear what was wrong. The plasma cells in my bone marrow were rampaging, multiplying, squeezing out the red blood cells and it was time to begin doing something about it. I was also tired of being tired all the time. And you just know when something is not kosher with your body. So when I sat there with Bobcat — my life partner and reservoir of Yellow—and got the news I didn’t react and I didn’t cry. I’m an actress, believe me, I can be dramatic. Not just then though.”

Incidentally, the actress decided to get a medical checkup only, “a few months ago, my bone marrow started sending me messages. I was always exhausted, pale, drained… The lack of oxygen made me a serial yawner and spacier than a displaced Czarina. Little did I know, but my hemoglobin had fallen to levels where even a dedicated Blood sucker would turn their thoughts to revival… I got a routine blood test and the results sent me to the hospital for a blood transfusion.”

“…And then I stopped travelling and returned to Canada. Got myself tested by Dr Susy Lin, landed in emergency and eventually got full membership into the Cancer Club. That’s how I found out I have Multiple Myeloma.”

Where Lisa did not loose her cool on getting the news, her friends and well-wishers are devastated by the news. Vikram Bhatt, the director of ‘Kasoor,’ which marked the debut of Lisa in Bollywood said, “I am in complete shock, I’m going to check on her immediately.”

Shamim Sarif, the director of Lisa’s upcoming flick ‘I Can’t Think Straight’ said on Twitter, “I have known since her diagnosis but at this point Lisa wants to truly raise awareness and funding to make sure this incurable disease finds a cure.”

All our best wishes to the actress so that she can fight the deadly disease!

Angelina Jolie to shoot in India

Angelina Jolie might soon visit India. No, she doesn’t have any plan to adopt a kid from India but will return for the shooting of her film, ‘Wanted 2’.

Director Timur Bekmabetov has plans to repeat Jolie for the upcoming sequel to last year’s hit film ‘Wanted’, which was loosely based on the comic book series by Mark Millar. Jolie’s return to the sequel is surprising because her character was killed in ‘Wanted’. But the director wants to repeat her. However, it’s not known whether Jolie will be back as ‘Fox’ or will essay a different character.

As reported, the project has a budget of $150 million.

“In the late autumn or winter, shooting will begin. The shooting will take place in America, India and Russia,” Bekmabetov is quoted as saying.

If things go as planned, Jolie will give her nod to the project, despite the rumours that the ‘Tomb Raider’ star is not interested in doing action roles anymore. It would be Jolie’s second movie shoot in India after ‘A Mighty Heart’ which she shot at many locations in the country.

The director also wants to rope in Konstantin Khabenskiy, who played the role of The Exterminator, and will also introduce new characters in the sequel.

‘Wanted’ was nominated for two Oscars and starred Morgan Freeman and James McAvoy.

Sagarika replaces Esha Deol in Raftaar

Among the whole bunch of girls who acted in Chak De India alongside SRK, probably the one who managed to draw maximum eyeballs was Sagarika Ghatge. Sagarika, who played the gutsy character of Preeti Sabarwal, also emerged as the highest goal-scorer in the film.
Now it seems Sagarika has managed to strike a goal in her real life too. The actress has been signed by Percept Picture Company for their film Raftaar (working title). The film is directed by noted ad film maker Shamin Desai. Sagarika will be paired opposite serial-kisser Emraan Hashmi in the film. What is interesting is the fact that the role which Sagarika has been signed for was to be originally played by Esha Deol.
Sarita Patil, Head of feature films at Percept Picture Company, said “Yes we have signed Sagarika for Raftaar. She has replaced Esha Deol as we couldn’t agree on the price. After things didn’t work out with Esha, we had a couple of options in mind and our director Shamin had seen Sagarika’s work in Chak De India and felt she would fit the part. Sagarika’s is a full-fledged lead role opposite Emraan Hashmi.”
The film also stars Neha Dhupia and Aditya Panscholi in prominent roles. Shooting for the film is currently underway in Kuala Lumpur and the film is expected to release sometime early next year (2009).

Neha Dhupia and her boyfriend name their love relationship as friendship

Neha Dhupia hot pictures


We are just good friends!’. This sentence seems to be the defending element of those who go around holding hand in hand but hesitate to declare their love in public. The love couples name their love relationship as friendship whenever they feel to hide their liaison from the world. Not only it is sexy Neha Dhupia who used this friendship weapon to hide the love relationship with her squash player beau, Ritwick Bhattacharya but also there are many such Bollywood actresses who took hold of this bat. At various occasions, Neha spotted closely with Ritwick but refused to reveal the truth of their linking.


Recently, they were spotted at the opening of Sancho’s, a Mexican restaurant in the capital and present with them was actor Sohail Khan. Though Neha and Ritwik were amidst other guests, after sometime they slowly walked away from others and found a safe corner for chitchatting and romance. She got cozy with her beau and enjoyed the party to the fullest. For both, the evening was filled up with romance and enjoyment.

Mugdha Godse bags in a MORE film


Mugdha Godse bollywood actress pictures

Mugdha Godse is not a new name in the scene of ramps, but the debut movie of this hot model is yet to hit the screens. Talking about sexy Mugdha Godse, the gal is making a debut with Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Fashion’ and even before the movie hits the screens, Mugdha bags in a three-film deal with Percept Pictures Company.


The best part of this deal is that Mugdha is free to work outside the deal. Giving in more details about the contract, Godse said, “The films that I am doing with PPC would have me in a lead-lead kind of a role. Also, since the production house has 10-15 films in the pipeline, the role that I would eventually end up doing would be by mutual consent between me and the director. I should like the film and the director should also find me suitable enough for the part.”


Where other newcomers make their presence felt in Bollywood with their romances and controversies, not much has been said about Mugdha in the gossip columns. Explaining the reason, Mugdha says, “Don’t be surprised because that’s the way I function. That’s not my style. For some it may be a way to keep making headlines but I would rather have everything firmly in place before I let people know about it.”


So, here we have one lady who prefers to let her work speak for her. Hope her debut reveals the best of her hidden talents!!

Sakshi Gulati scared about that incident


tt9

Sakshi Gulati, who makes her debut with Ram Gopal Varma’s CONTRACT, almost turned handicapped and lost her ability to hear, albeit for a few hours, during the shooting of the film.


Recalling the incident the aspiring actress said, "It was an action scene that involved a bomb blast. I was tied to a tree and was leaning against it. Ram Gopal was set to roll the camera. But neither the unit nor I was aware that I was standing at a wrong place, just a few steps away from the bomb. The minute Varma yelled "Action" the bombed ripped off shaking me completely out of gear. I was too shocked and stunned to react. It was almost a near death experience. Really scary"


Sakshi continued, "The next thing I know is that I got all glass splinters in my hair and clothes and had suffered severe burn injuries at the back around the shoulder area. The impact of the blast was such that it left me completely deaf. I could not hear what Ram Gopal Varma and the unit members were trying to tell me. It was only after a gap of four hours that I could slightly begin to hear. My hearing abilities were completely restored only after seven long hours. Imagine meri halat kya hoti thi had I stood the other way round. I dread to even think about it."
