Ranbir-Katrina, boyfriend-girlfriend?

That Ranbir flirts with the young and old is well-known. From Aishwarya Rai to Madhuri Dixit, he has been a lover boy all the way. No wonder then that he should be linked with every actress he works with (and doesn’t). So much so that he becomes the envy of all men in Bollywood, including

Guzaarish & Tees Maar Khan disappoint; Band Baaja Baaraat continues to do well

It has been a disappointing fortnight for me. All the films I saw have dampened my new year spirits. First off was from Hollywood: Tron Legacy. Though the film was a fantastical sci-fi adventure, there was nothing else to keep me glued to the big screen. Next came Guzaarish. You can feel the richness of

Aishwarya sued by a farmer

Aishwarya Rai is always in the news for one thing or the other. If it’s not her envy rearing its ugly head when Sonam Kapoor was supposed to walk the ramp at Cannes, it’s her questionable land deals hogging the limelight. The latest is Thakre, a 69-year-old farmer claiming that his land was illegally bought

Aishwarya, Bipasha losing out to younger actresses

Looks like age does matter, even if size doesn’t. Ask Aishwarya Rai and Bipasha Basu these days.

What’s more, she has also lost out on

Aishwarya Rai is insecure

Don’t know why Aishwarya Rai is so insecure. Rumour is rife that she asked L’Oreal guys to stop newcomer Sonam Kapoor (the daughter of Slumdog Millionaire’s Anil Kapoor) from walking the red carpet at Cannes film festival. Don’t understand how the pairing of the two (fresher and veteran) would affect Ash’s brand equity. She should

Are some Indian actors really Hollywood stars?

There is much frenzy whenever an Indian actor gets picked by English filmmakers. The truth is, most of these are independent filmmakers and not big Hollywood studios. Therefore, first of all, they are not going to be Hollywood actors. They are merely international stars. The only actress to have truly gone Hollywood is Aishwarya Rai

Bollywood needs more worthy Miss Indias

Time was when Miss Indias were pretty as a picture and complemented Bollywood completely. Neat, clean, well-groomed, and quite a joy to behold. But over the years, and particularly after 2000, the quality of Miss Indias have come down and this year is no different. No matter what others say about beauty contests being personality

Film review: Jodhaa Akbar rocks!

The good news. After a dismal first weekend, Jodhaa Akbar seems to have rocked on its second weekend in big centres like Chennai, Mumbai and Bangalore. And industry experts feel that the film has salvaged its reputation after all. Which is good news for director Ashutosh Gowariker. What’s more, after watching the film, I feel
