John Abraham's pole stint
John Abraham has hurt his leg badly yet again.
It was while shooting for David Dhawan’s film Hook Ya Crook that the accident happened. A unit hand informed us that John had to slip down a 20-foot pole for a scene. He didn’t get it right and slid quite badly. Unfortunately for John, he landed directly on his leg. Despite being ordered take some rest, John quickly treated himself to some first-aid medication, and went pole sliding all over again. This time he got it right, and then rushed to the X-ray clinic. Talk about wanting to get it right, hook ya crook.
Emraan Hashmi shares his plans for 'Raaz 3' and fatherhood
"We're trying for a baby and we should be parents by next year. One is never prepared for fatherhood. And if I wait to be fully prepared, it will never happen. But I'm getting into the mindset now," Emraan, who is married to Parveen Shahani, told IANS.
Talking about "Raaz 3", he said: "Yes we're on," said Emraan. "The third part will also be directed by Mohit Suri and I'll play the lead. The rest of the details are yet to be decided. The cast of the second 'Raaz' film was totally new. And I think I'm going to be the only actor common to 'Raaz 2' and '3'."
Emraan feels vindicated by the audiences' response to "Raaz 2", which also starred Kangana Ranaut and newcomer Adhyayan Suman.
"My wife kept telling me I should try the genre. I had never done horror before. It's believed in the trade that horror films open well and then soon fizzle out. But then it was also believed that a film looking at the seamier side of cricket ('Jannat') would never do well.
"I like to walk the lonely path. That's why you don't see me at parties and functions. Maybe that's why I play the part of the loner and watch another guy take away the girl I love," Emran said, drawing attention to his loser-lover's role in "Awarapan" and now "Raaz 2".
Emraan, who has been lying low during the publicity of "Raaz 2" thanks to all the focus on real-life pair Kangana-Adhyayan, says he didn't feel left out.
"Kangana and Adhyayan were a real-life couple. I can't concoct an affair just to be noticed. I was confident my work would speak for itself. Sure enough I believe people clap when I come on screen the first time. I do have fan base, though it might be small," he said.
Deepika wants to launch her website
Though she is not an internet addict, Deepika is planning to launch her own website in order to stay in close touch with her fans and provide them with an update on her life and career. Apparently, she answers all the emails fans send her.
To begin with, she is searching for a suitable domain name for her website.
Even though Deepika plans to launch her website, she says she uses the internet mainly for emails and is not so much into surfing the internet. For that matter, she doesn’t even like sending an SMS. She prefers the good old telephone when it comes to connecting with her near and dear ones.
Ash be next to join politics
Samajwadi Party workers and leaders in Bihar have decided to offer Aishwarya the party ticket for the Madhepura seat against Janata Dal-United (JD-U) national president Sharad Yadav, a party official said.
In view of the overwhelming demand of the party workers, the Samajwadi Party Bihar parliamentary board has recommended Aishwarya's name to party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav.
Senior party leader Tulsi Singh told IANS that a large number of party workers and people had requested him to convince Mulayam Singh to give the party ticket to Aishwarya from Madhepura. Singh is chairman of the party's state parliamentary board.
The Madhepura seat is held by the Rashtriya Janata Dal's Pappu Yadav, who is serving life imprisonment in Tihar Jail in Delhi for his involvement in the murder of Left leader Ajit Sarkar. His wife Ranjita Ranjan is a Lok Janshakti Party MP from Saharsa.
JD-U leader Sharad Yadav is likely to contest from Madhepura, his old seat.
In the last Lok Sabha polls in 2004, Railway Minister Lalu Prasad, the RJD chief, won from Madhepura by defeating Sharad Yadav. Lalu Prasad later resigned the Madhepura seat and opted to retain the Chapra seat.
Madhepura, a rural seat, is dominated by the backward Yadav caste. Last year, Madhepura was hit by devastating floods when the Kosi river changed its course after a breach upstream in Nepal.

Shah Rukh to recreate Mogambo
After his tremendous performance as a villain in “Baazigar” and “Darr”, Shah Rukh Khan may again be seen as a villain in a film.
SRK has reportedly been offered the role of Mogambo in the sequel to “Mr. India”.
Filmmaker Shekhar Kapur is presently working on the sequel, which is titled “Mr. India 2”. Shekhar, who is very close to Shah Rukh, is said to have made this offer to him.
It will be a role of a lifetime for Shah Rukh if he accepts the offer.
Mogambo was earlier played by the late Amrish Puri and to date remains one of the most iconic negative characters in a Bollywood film. Puri’s performance, especially the line “Mogambo khush hua”, is still remembered by the masses.
Shekhar short-listed Shah Rukh as the actor has given noteworthy performances as a villain and Shekhar feels no one can do better justice to Mogambo’s role than SRK.
Anil Kapoor and Sridevi will also be seen in “Mr. India 2”.
Now we are awaiting Shah Rukh's answer, which we hope be in the affirmative.
I am a slumdog millionaire myself
I am a Slumdog Millionaire says Anil Kapoor. The actor high on the success of his film draws similarities from the film to his own life when he made it to films.

"I resided in a small house in Chembur and had to struggle and work hard to become a millionaire and stay in Juhu. |
More honours for Slumdog Millionaire
Danny Boyle's acclaimed film "Slumdog Millionaire" has taken home two more major US film industry awards over the weekend, winning the top prizes from both the Screen Actors Guild and the Producers Guild of America.
Bollywood stars Anil Kapoor and Irrfan Khan, British Indian actor Dev Patel, and newcomer Freida Pinto received the overall cast prize for the Mumbai-set rags-to-riches saga at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday (January 25) night from Anthony Hopkins.
Anil Kapoor, accepting on behalf of the "Slumdog Millionaire" cast, dedicated the award to the slum children shown in the movie.
"They deserve this award. They set our performances," he said. "It's the children who've done it, not us."
The Oscar-nominated film tells the heart-warming story a young man from the slums of Mumbai who risks all for love and for a shot at instant wealth as a contestant on the Indian version of the TV game show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire".
Patel, who plays the protagonist, and Pinto, his ladylove, introduced the film clip at the event.
"Slumdog Millionaire" also won the top prize from the Producers Guild of America on Saturday (January 24), giving it another boost in the race for the Oscars next month.
The top award from the Producers Guild of America or PGA goes to the movie's producer, in this case Christian Colson, whose previous feature credits consist of three relatively obscure thrillers.
Meanwhile, following its 10 Oscar nominations and expansion into more theatres, "Slumdog Millionaire" has jumped into the North American Top Five for the first time in its 11-week run with its weekend gross soaring by 80 percent to $10.55 million.
Now running in 1,411 theatres across America, up 829 from last weekend, the film has to date grossed a total of $55.92 million, according to the movie website boxofficeguru.com.
The Producers Guild award is considered an important bellwether for Oscar success as its members make up an important constituency of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which votes on the Oscars.
In its first 19 years, 12 of the PGA's top film picks went on to win the Academy Award for best picture, including last year's champion "No Country for Old Men" although the producers missed the mark for three straight years starting in 2005.

Monica Adaro y el Video de las Prostivedettes
Mónica Adaro: de Potoncita a Prostivedette
Cuando Eduardo Arancibia, alias Cholo Lalito, salamanquino, de 30 años, putañero de poca monta y fiel escudero del ahora ex presidiario Neyci Guerrero, pretendió regatear -como todo buen peruano- la tarifa única de los inapreciables e inmerecidos servicios que estaba a punto de recibir, la codiciada bailarina Mónica Adaro, más conocida como La Potoncita, de 24 dulces primaveras, hija predilecta del distrito de Breña y culo-estrella del clásico sabatino Risas y Salsa temporadas '97 al 2000, olvidó las finas formas de recatada señorita de su casa para retrucar con el tÃpico desdén de avezada trabajadora de la calle y recorrida mujer de mal vivir: "No pues papito, ¿quién chucha te has creido? Por si acaso asà no juega Perú, tú ya quedaste en 350 dólares con la mami CorÃn", "pero Moniquita...", "pero nada, business son business". Y fue asÃ, de esta peculiar manera, es decir, como toda una experta y aguerrida profesional en las lides del comercio carnal que lucha palmo a palmo por ganarse los sagrados frijoles de cada dÃa, que la vedette puso punto final a la vil transacción de cochino dinero contante y sonante, para proseguir sin más preámbulo con la respectiva faena amatoria sobre el trajinado ring de las cuatro perillas (un crujiente catre del telo "Mega Hostal", cito Av. Arequipa 1421), sin más testigo que una vieja filmadora Betacam oculta detrás del diván. Punto para Perú.
Carajo, que hermosos tiempos aquellos y que nunca volverán. Para los vedetteros, una luz de esperanza; para Moniquita, el apocalipsis a la vuelta de cada esquina...
El Ajá: Mónica Adaro cobra chin-chin por polvorÃn. La Chuchi: Potoncita Adaro es tremenda putita. El Chino: Mónica lo hace rico y sin condón. El Men: Potoncita mata por 350 cocos. El Popular: La Adaro entrega potito por billetón. La Yuca: Prosti Mónica Adaro vende su chico al mejor postor. El TÃo: Vedette Monica Adaro es del cuento. El Bacán: La Adaro goza por la colita.
En su apuro por librarse de la vergüenza, del escándalo y de las múltiples im-puta-ciones en su contra, Monica Adaro huyó a los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica, paÃs en donde embaucó en nupsias (con el viejo truco de "me estoy guardando virgen para el matrimonio") a un exitoso empresario homosexual de origen mexicano que, por esas casualidades de la vida, se encontraba buscando una esposa moderadamente decente para guardar las apariencias con su mamá. La Adaro vio la oportunidad del exilio dorado... y, como no podÃa ser de otro modo, la tomó en el acto. Cerró un trato justo.
Han pasado casi 10 años del oscuro episodio de las prostivedettes e inexplicablemente la Adaro (hoy convertida en Mónica Lemos) continúa aún en su burdo e inútil empeño de negar lo innegable. "Soy inocente, casi me joden la vida. Sufrà como nadie y lloré a mares, ni siquiera podÃa salir a la calle. Magaly Medina es el peor ser humano que se ha cruzado en mi camino, me difamó, me hundió, me mató en vida. Engañó al público con un video trucado, ese tipo era mi ex enamorado. Nunca fui prostituta, esas imágenes fueron puras patrañas, cochinos inventos de gente que me querÃa destruir. Podrán decir las mentiras que quieran, pero basta ya de dañar la honra de mi familia, soy una respetable señora de su casa. Volveré a enjuiciar a Magaly, la voy a demandar por 5 millones de dólares, y haré que la metan presa por los próximos 10 años, cuanto menos". La reflexión del dÃa: hasta para ser puta hay que tener dignidad. A pesar del tiempo transcurrido, nuestra Moniquita ostenta aún el honroso tÃtulo de "El poto más grande del Perú" y, por lo visto, el de la concha más grande también. Salud por eso, estimados doctores.

Para rellenar este post con un poco más de carne, les traemos un lindo video del ayer. Elmer Alfaro, el popular "Machucao", hace de las suyas en un logrado sketch de Risas y Salsa (nótese la influencia actoral del maestro "Papá" Chuiman en la notable performance de Alfaro) gracias a los inspirados guiones del recientemente fallecido Guillermo Guille. Con ustedes, el "TÃo Mañuco" y su séquito de fursias chuchumecas: las en ese entonces nóveles Mónica Adaro (antes de aumentar aún más sus siliconas traseras), Tula Rodriguez (antes de su rinoplastia e implante de senos), Sara Manrique (antes de ser conocida como "La Manruca") y Giuliana Herrera (antes de que la saquen de, en fin). Todo un semillero de estrellas. Servidos están, lectores pajeros.

Kareena, Katrina and Yana to dance at beauty pageant
"There will be a mix of beauty, talent and glamour at the finale of the pageant, with Bollywood beauties shaking a leg with the participants; it will be an evening to remember," host Deepak Tijori said at the press conference in New Delhi on Wednesday.
Deepak's Tijori Entertainment is hosting the show with Kaleidovision.
The 20 finalists will go through a 10-day grilling regime.
"Training is not going to be a cakewalk for them. They will have to go through a tough and hectic regime of around 14 hours a day, which means they cannot take it easy," said Mehar Bhasin, who will look after the grooming of the contestants.
"The finalists will undergo an exclusively designed training and grooming regime that includes fitness, diction, psyche, aptitude, hair and make-up sessions. The training will enhance their confidence not only for the finale, but for further rounds to be held on the international stage as well," she added.
Beauty expert Blossom and Samantha Kochhar will take care of their beauty and hair, while fitness tips will be given by model-turned-actors Milind Soman and Rahul Dev.
Designer duo Rahul and Rohit Gandhi of the label Cue will design cocktail and evening wears for the participant. Madhu Jain and Milind Soman of the label M will design Indian traditional wear for the grand finale.
What makes this pageant different from other beauty pageants is the fact that even short girls may take part.
Tijori said: "This pageant is not restricted by banalities like physical shortcomings; the absence of height criteria and swim suit rounds makes it different from the conventional pageants.
"Majority of the Indian girls do not match the height criteria of other beauty pageants. Though they might have oodles of talent one shortcoming ruins all their chances of applying there. We understood this thing and came with a concept that will cheer up many beautiful and talented girls all over India."
Miss India Worldwide started 17 years ago and the contestants were primarily selected from the Indian diaspora. But it was felt that the pageant without a participant from India would be incomplete.
Then Tijori Entertainment and Kaleidovision took its franchisee from the Indian Festival Committee (IFC), a pioneer organisation conducting Indian pageants and fashion shows, in the US and worldwide.

Juhi Chawla wears a new look
Juhi Chawla is wearing blonde highlights in hair hair for her role in Zoya Akhtar's directorial debut "Luck By Chance" (pictured above).
Juhi, last seen in Ravi Chopra's "Bhootnath", will play veteran actor Rishi Kapoor's wife in the film.
"Playing Minty was so much fun! And moreover I got to colour my hair blonde, which was something I had never done before," said Juhi.
"When Zoya offered me the role I was extremely thrilled. Even though I was told it was not a big role, I didn't mind as it was different from all the other characters I have played before, and that was the most exciting part," she added.
"Luck By Chance", releasing on January 30, stars Farhan Akhtar and Konkona Sen Sharma and has a much-hyped guest appearance by superstar Hrithik Roshan.
Raima Sen: Wooing Women!
Raima Sen has often been compared to grandma Suchitra Sen. But Raima has not just acquired her looks; she has also acquired tips of gaining a fan following from grandma Sen.
Her next movie MERE KHWABON MEIN JO AAYE focuses on how a woman who's tied down with her daily routine and household chores, dreams of making it big.
Raima says, ''It is a woman-oriented subject, but it would cater to everyone, especially people who are fighting their fears. I can say that because the movie has given me the inspiration to fight my own phobias, which frankly I'm still trying! Also I feel it will gain me a lot of female fan following.'' Female fan following? Shouldn't she be concentrating on the men instead? ''If my grandma is to be believed, men anyways would swoon over you, but if you get appreciations from a woman, it means you've truly proved your competency, as women wouldn't easily appreciate another woman!''
What are the phobias which she's trying to fight? Raima, who sheds all inhibitions when she is in front of the camera, confesses that she is petrified of the camera but only when it comes to giving a screen test. ''I don't know why, but this has been a case with me forever. That's one of the reasons why I don't even try for foreign films... they all follow the process of undergoing a screen test. That has also been the reason for my missing out on some great films. However, fortunately for me, whatever roles I've done so far have been offered to me and have been appreciated by people.'' she says.
Speaking about this phobia of hers, she says, ''Back in school, I was once playing Cinderella on stage and I still remember; when I went on stage, suddenly I couldn't speak and I just went blank. Another girl was called then to say the dialogues back stage while I lip-synced. Maybe that has still remained in my mind somewhere.''
Another critical role for now that she has bagged ''without a screen test'' is Aparna Sen's JAPANESE WIFE where she plays a widow. In a scene she had to interact with the Japanese actress and Raima recalls, ''It was a bit difficult conversing at first as we had to communicate with the help of an interpreter. But slowly, we somehow managed to strike a conversation without the interpreter and it was fun understanding the context in spite of not understanding the language!'' she laughs.
Looks like Raima is doing her best to woo everyone, and language doesn't seem to be a problem for her!
