Sherin is quite disturbed these days and the reason is the release of her last Tamil project 'Poova Thalaiya' announced to be released on April 29th.

Yes, she is very much disturbed about the release of 'Poova Thalaiya' and it is not because of the delay of its release but for her settlement that is yet to made.

Sherin's salary for having oozed glamor in a role like never before has not been settled till date and despite this, the film is to hit the screens this weekend.

Would this be just another publicity gimmick ? We shall wonder too. This ain't the first time that a movie is brought to news by its star cast or someone claiming the script to be of their own.


Sherin who stated that the project didn't have a script or a screenplay alleged that 'Poova Thalaiya' was never completed. She wonders how its director Sanjay Ram is releasing the film in its incomplete form.

Poova Thalaiya that is releasing today is inspired from a true story that took place in Thanjavur and features Sherin in her glamourous side like never seen before. The star cast also includes Megha Nair and Swetha in the lead opposite Udhaya.

We've always seen Sherin as a bold trendsetter with what it takes to be an actress. It would be very nice to have someone hot and talented. Would 'Poova Thalaiya' mark her return to Kollywood ? Lets not let the fate of the movie decide that.

Reemma Sen has been lying low for a while after the good response to her role in Aayirathil Oruvan. There was some speculation that she was going to get married and quit acting but the actress has simply denied it as rumors.

Word on the grapevine is that she has been roped in to do a big project in Telugu directed by hit machine, VN Aditya, and this film is to be produced by D Rama Naidu. This will be a heroine-oriented, breezy entertainer with three fresh faces who will be vying for her attention.

Reemma Sen is also in demand in Tamil and Malayalam cinema and top producers are approaching her hoping that she will green light their projects.

Janani Iyer, model-turned-actress will make her debut with Bala’s Avan Ivan. After the news that she had signed on for this project, Janani seemed to have gone in hiding. Recently, she was seen at the audio launch of Avan Ivan, looking absolutely gorgeous in a red and black sari.

Quizzed about her disappearance from the scene, she said that she had only been following her director’s strict instructions. Bala wanted his heroine to be the surprise package in the film and retain her USP as a fresh face, so he had asked her to stay away from the media blitz.

Janani Iyer added that she had submerged herself in the character completely and took a complete break from modeling and did not sign any more films. But now that the shooting is completed, she says she is happy with her work and is eager to do more films.

The scariest date movie Ragini MMS gets a theme song. One of the most romantic songs of Hindi cinema, Raat Akeli Hai, gets a chiller version for the film, featuring Kainaz Motivala and Raj Kumar Yadav.

Thus the ultimate seducing tune of all times has a new meaning in Ekta Kapoor's film Ragini MMS. The romantic hit, originally picturised on Dev Anand and Tanuja, is from the blockbuster Jewel Thief and is rendered passionately by Asha Bhosle. Ekta, in awe of the song, decided to keep the original in the film instead of remixing it.

Ekta explains why she selected the song, and is quoted as saying, “Some classic tunes should just not be touched. They should be enjoyed in their purest authentic form. 'Raat Akeli Hai' is sexy enough in its original form and goes very well with the mood of Ragini MMS.”

Since the movie is a paranormal sensuous film and is about a couple who are on a romantic getaway to an unknown place, the song fits the theme. But from now on Raat Akeli Hai will haunt you, thanks to Ragini MMS.

After the amazing success of Robot (Endhiran), Rajnikanth is back in ‘Rana’! We just can’t take our eyes off Rajni’s flowing mane and a very Sindbad look in the poster.

What’s more interesting is that the South Superstar will play a triple role in the film. The music for the film is being scored by A R Rehman and K.S. Ravikumar is directing the film. The film also stars Deepika Padukone and is said to have Ileana D’Cruz and Sonu Sood in the cast as well.

With Rajni looking so good, we can only imagine how Deepika would...!!!

Yes, yet another eligible bachelor of Kollywood is taken!

The handsome hero Karthi who has carved a niche in the industry with his performances is all set to tie the knot.

The lucky girl is Ranjani a MA Literature gold medalist who is an alumnus of Stella Maris College in Chennai. She is the daughter of Erode Chinnasamy and Jothi Meenakshi.

The marriage has been arranged by the elders of the family. Karthi's brother Suriya is also a popular star and is married to his fellow actress and lover Jyothika.

News is that the couple are to get married on the 3rd July this year and it looks like Karthi is all set to break a million hearts on the his intimate day.

CelebsFactory congratulates him on having found a suitable partner and also wish him all success both professionally and personally.

Producers are always delighted when directors finish their projects quickly and that is exactly what the producers of Vishal and Sameera Reddy’s untitled film are happy about.

Director Prabhudeva seems to be quick as a wink in finishing the project. Recently, he wanted to shoot an item song with Sophie Choudary and Vishal in Europe but he was denied visa. Not wanting to waste time, he came up with an idea of making a brilliant setting in Binny mills and completed that shoot.

It is said that he has shot almost 90% of the movie already in areas near Hyderabad.

The director wants to get over with his commitments by June so that he can marry Nayanthara in July without having to bother about other commitments.

We sincerely hope all this hurry doesn’t affect the quality of the movie.

It is well known that STR’s next film is Vettai Mannan which is being directed by Nelson. News is that STR is all set to justify the title by going an extra mile to make the action scenes in the film scintillating. A particular scene will be shot using three Time-Freeze cameras and seven Aree type cameras. The shooting is going to take place in Mexico and famous stunt choreographers and stunt technicians are going to be part of this action extravaganza.

The movie is going to be made in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi and the plans are to rope in a heroine who is popular in all the three languages. Apart from STR the film also stars Jai. It has music by STR’s friend Yuvan Shankar Raja.

Udhayanidhi Stalin who has tasted instant and consecutive successes as a producer and a distributor spills out the ‘secret formula’ when questioned how he manages it.

He said that "I always accept to produce or distribute movies that can be watched by the whole families together without feeling awkward".

I follow a simple formula before committing any project. I don’t prefer having any vulgarity in my films either visually or in dialogues uttered by the cast. My choice is always to make films which can be watched and enjoyed by entire family.” he added.

When asked about the progress of OKOK he said that it is shaping out well and all he has done is to follow director Rajesh’s instructions to the T. He also said that he is immensely thankful to Suriya and Arya for the support they have shown him all the while. We hope Udhayanidhi tastes success as an actor too!

Udayanidhi Stalin, the distributor of Ko, has said that some people are very upset about Ko’s success. He added that he feels very sorry for them and wished them luck next time. Though the producer-distributor-actor did not disclose the names of all those whom he thinks are upset about Ko’s success, there are strong speculations about whom he is referring to.

Sources say that Udayanidhi has referred to Silambarasan as he was the first choice of director KV Anand to play the lead role but it went to Jiiva following some differences.

Meanwhile, the film is being appreciated by movie buffs all over the world and has already been declared a hit.

Model turned actress Vega first came into the limelight with her breakthrough performance in Saroja and Pasanga. The actress who is not scared to experiment has her next outing as an actress with Vaanam.

The spunky actress will play Lasya, a member of a rock music group originally played by Lekha Washington in the Telugu version.

Vega says her character is a challenging one and she is not worried about getting lost in the multi-starrer with the likes of Silambarasan, Bharath, Anushka, Prakash Raj, and Sonia Agarwal among others.

Though it is a small role, it is well fleshed out and will be remembered, she says. As far as her career is concerned, Vega is happy to take it slow and pick only good roles.


Hansika Motwani was recently spotted at Tirupati on her temple visit to worship Lord Balaji. The actress, along with her parents had their Tirupati darshan late in the evening.

Before leaving Tirupati, Hansika met the media persons and answered their queries about her future projects and the reason for her visit to Tirupati.

"I am happy that my first film in Tamil 'Mappilai' has been well received by the audience and is already cheered up awaiting her next release 'Engeyum Kadhal' in the pipeline.

Engeyum Kadhal is directed by Prabhu Deva with Actor Jayam Ravi as her lead pair. The film would soon be released by Sun Pictures with the movie promos frequently aired across the globe. It cannot be denied that Sun picture not just helps love to reach everywhere but also Hansika, the gorgeous lass with Engeyum Kadhal that literally means Love Everywhere.

If you're an ardent fan of Hansika, she also revealed that she has four more Tamil films to please the Tamil audience and two in Telugu in her little Kitty which is to be burst up with offers soon.

‘Aathma’ is India’s first new wave 3D stereo scopic movie and will be hitting big screens this May! The movie will be simultaneously releasing in Tamil, Hindi and Telugu. Prior to this, these technologies were used in James Cameron’s ‘Avatar’ – a movie that made waves internationally.

Ace director Vikram Bhatt is directing ‘Aathma,’ a 3D horror flick. Vikram Bhatt already has three horror Bollywood flicks to his credit, ‘Raaz,’ ‘1920’ and ‘Shaapit.’ All these movies have acted as trendsetters for horror films in the industry!

Needless to say, a combination of horror and 3D will be a perfect entertainer this summer. Speaking to the media, Vikram Bhatt expressed, “Horror by itself is scary, and ‘Aathma’ will definitely be a nerve-chilling experience.”


The hero, Rehan, visits Dalhousie, the Glen Manor that his father had initiated for sale and has come to a standstill. Rehan unearths the mysteries and miseries of the past and present in the Glen Manor, and wants to free the house of the spirit that is taking hold of the house. While doing so, Rehan comes across Meera’s picture and wonders how anyone can ever fall in love with a picture? But he does fall in love with it and this turns out to be only a bigger challenge for him, for the picture and Meera are the reasons of why the house is haunted!

Looks like there’s a lot to look forward to from ‘Aathma,’ in terms of the script and the technology never seen by Indian audiences!

The producer and director of Vijay’s Velayudham, Aascar Ravichandran and Jayam Raja respectively are keen to release the film as a birthday surprise on Vijay's birthday that falls on June 22nd.

Almost 80 per cent of the film is completed and those who have seen the rushes are gushing about it saying that the action, dance, and music of this entertainer is simply astounding.

Genelia and Hansika play the lovely lasses on either arms of Vijay, a milkman reminiscing us of Superstar Rajnikanth in Annamalai. Genelia plays an intrepid reporter and Hansika does what she does best with the role that she has been offered.

With lovely lasses on either of his arms and miling more milk with astounding entertaining elements Velayudham is expected to hit screens on Vijay's birthdate to make good business to that of a good looking milkman he has turned out to be.

The superhero Vigilante slash the alter ego of the milkman on the script is a surprise for which the director along with his producers play with the cards close to their chest as this project is another remake of the Telugu hit Azad (2000) that had Nagarjuna, Shilpa Shetty and late Soundarya playing pivotal roles.

Rajinikanth’s next film with KS Ravikumar is ready to rock and roll. A colossal set has reportedly been erected at the AVM Studios and all is in readiness for the shoot. The first schedule will begin on May 1st. Some crucial scenes and a dance sequence with Deepika Padukone will be canned.

The director wants to preserve the surprise elements in the film, so access cards have been issued to crew members so that only select personnel may gain admission to the set. This move is likely to increase an already inflated interest in Rana, a hundred fold.

Deepika will sport a brand new look for this film and will epitomize the Southern beauty. Tabu will be paired up against the patriarch character and Ileana will be the other leading lady. Sonu Sood, who has become famous for his bad guy act in Arundhati and Dabangg, will be the villain in Rana. Interestingly, the actor did a small role and was in a fight sequence with Superstar in Chandramukhi.

Geetha Arts' 100% Love has been passed by censors with U certificate and the film is slated for May 6th release. "The music, scored by Devi Sri Prasad, is already on the chartbusters. We've wrapped up the film on schedule, thanks to the efforts of the entire unit. The film's sturdiest strength is in the pairing of Naga Chaitanya and Tamanna," informs presenter Allu Aravind.

Bunnyvas, who is making his debut as a producer with this film, is confident of the film's success. He says, "100% Love is an entertaining love story. It will appeal mainly to the youth. We have been receiving overwhelming response to the music. The film was completed within the budget and it will surely be a hit."

Sheila Ki Jawani is a rage among the youth. Katrina Kaif has been criticized for her inability to dance over the last few years and this song proved her critics wrong. The song has also found a place among top songs in music channels along with Munni Badnaam Hui from Dabangg. It is still topping the charts.

All is well aware about the cold war between Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone. Deepika did a special song in Dum Maaro Dum and the song was expected to do well and push Sheila Ki Jawani to the back seat. But nothing of that sort happened. The film sunk without trace and so was the song. When asked to respond to this observation, Kat condemned comparisons between the two songs.

"Every song has its own importance and each actress has her own plus points. We do what the choreographers want us to do. There is no place for comparison here," quips the stunner.

Katrina is currently busy with Mere Brother Ki Dulhan. and it is news that she was offered another item song for a whopping Rs. 3 crore that was reportedly declined by the actress.

"My days as an assistant director in Chennai is unforgettable. My family was in Valasaravakkam. I would take the city bus and go to the Sathyam theatre to see many films," says director Rajamouli. He adds he always dreamt of watching his film at Sathyam and finally his dream is coming true.

Maaveeran, the dubbed version of Magadheera starring Ram Charan and Kajal is releasing in Chennai soon. Recollecting his memories the director at the audio release function spoke about his relationship with Chennai and expressed hope that the movie will do equally well in Tamil Nadu as well. Ram Charan too said he could never forget his school and the teachers in Chennai and declared he was a big fan of Kamal Hassan.

"Nenu Naa Rakshasi is a film in a different genre. It is a love thriller. It is different from my other films. This is one film that I am indeed proud to be associated with. Both Rana and Ileana have come up with brilliant performances.

The music has already come in for high praise both among the trade circles and the general public.

Anoop's re-recording is first rate. It will definitely be a different experience for the audience," says Puri Jagannath about his upcoming directorial venture, Nenu Naa Rakshasi. The film is set to release April 29th.

Rana, who is playing a role of a Professional Assasin in the film, adds, "Even though I am just three films old, I can confidently say that Nenu Naa Rakshasi is a unique film. Producer Bujji has not compromised on anything in making this entertainer. I feel fortunate to get to work with a talented filmmaker like Puri Jagan so early in my career. I am sure the film will give my career the required boost."

Ileana remarks, "I liked my character in Nenu Naa Rakshasi immensely. I am satisfied with the outcome of the film. It has given me ultimate satisfaction as an actor. Rana has performed his part very well in the film. It is going to be a landmark film in my career."

Nenu Naa Rakshasi has music by Viswa-Rehman, cinematography by Amol Rathod, editing by SR Rajasekhar, art by Chinna, choreography by Raju Sundaram, Pradeep Antony, action by Vijay, Selva and Ganesh. Vijaya Ram Prasad is the co-director.

Young superstar Silambarasan-Bharath starrer ‘Vaanam’ was supposed to hit screens before a month, but was delayed due to unknown reasons. Now as everything gets ready, the producers are having problems in getting theatres.

Due to the grand success of KO, the theatre owners have refused to shift the film to small screens in their theaters. Apparently, This has troubled the producers on their ability of cashing during the 1st weekend and has caused a lot of confusion amongst fans if Vaanam would release as expected.

Yuvan Shankar Raja has already delivered best songs for the film with a list of hit numbers that has already become a chart buster.

Vaanam is a multi-starrer project with the film revolving around five parallel stories with STR, Bharath, Anushka Shetty, Prakash Raj, Sonia Agarwal and Jasmine Bhasin playing lead roles. The remake has Anushka reprising the same role from the original that turned out to be a crowd puller and the same is to be repeated yet again.

While everything go well as planned except for the availability of theaters Simbu has stated that the movie would release as planned making no exceptions.

Though Shamshuddin Ibrahim AKA Shaam made his film debut through the Tamil film 12B, he shot to limelight after starring in the Telugu blockbuster titled Kick. Shaam had played an important role in this film and had earned name and fame enough to essay the same role in all of its remakes.

Kick was remade in Tamil under the title Thillalangadi and in Kannada it was named Kick. With both the remakes having done good business in Tamil and Kannada as well, it is now gearing up to go to Bollywood.

Recently, Salman Khan had met Shaam and assured him of the same role in its Bollywood remake and Shaam is happy over this development as it would be mark his debut in Bollywood. Sources in the Bollywood say that this remake would carry the title of the Original Kick and we just try and avoid saying, Not Again !


This remake is rumored to be directed by A R Murgadoss of Ghajini fame once he wraps up his '7am Arivu' with Suriya & Shruti Hassan in the lead. If sources are to be believed Deepika Padukone would be cast opposite Salman for the 1st time in a role preceeded by Ileana, Tamannah and Praneetha.

Popular TV actress Ratan Rajput has received 54,863 wedding proposals from suitors including doctors, lawyers, engineers, professors, businessmen, chefs and bankers, for her upcoming televised swayamvar "Ratan Ka Rishta" -- and this is said to be highest so far for the show. The maximum offers have come from Meerut and Lucknow.

Ratan, who became popular after her stint as Laali on Zee TV's show "Agle Janam Mohe Bitiya Hi Kijo", has managed to elicit the maximum number of proposals ever, surpassing those received during "Rakhi Ka Swayamvar" and "Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jaayega", said a press statement from Imagine TV.

"I want to thank everybody for their continuous support to me. I hope that with the blessings of god, my family and viewers, I find a true soulmate," said Ratan.

The Patna girl has received maximum proposals from Uttar Pradesh, with hopefuls from Meerut and Lucknow topping the list; followed by cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Jaipur, Bhopal, Bangalore, Patna, Chandigarh, Ranchi and Hyderabad.

Men from Britain, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Canada, Pakistan and the US have also sent in their profiles in the hope of walking the aisle with Ratan.

"The response for the third season - 'Ratan Ka Rishta' has been very good. We have entries from all over the world and with so many prospective grooms on hand; Ratan has been spoilt for choice. We are confident to find the right match for Ratan," said Nikhil Madhok, senior director - Marketing and Communications, Imagine TV.

Rahul Mahajan, who is leading a successful married life with Dimpy Ganguly after his on screen swayamvar, has wished Ratan all the best.

"The swayamvar has been a beautiful journey that I cherish. It brought both Dimpy and me together from perfect strangers to being a happily married couple. We not only met on the swayamvar, but also discovered and found love in each other here. We both would like to wish Ratan all the very best in her search for her groom," said Rahul, son of slain BJP leader Pramod Mahajan.

Though her Telugu debut 'Josh' with Naga Chaitanya did not create waves in the box-office, star kid Karthika (daughter of 80s actor Raadha) is very happy with the way her Tamil debut 'Ko' with Jiiva and Malayalam debut 'Makara Manju' with Santhosh Sivan has shaped up.

Getting accolades for her performance in the recently released Tamil film 'Ko', the actor seems very excited. "My Tamil film just hit the screens, while my Malayalam film is set to release this week. Everyone's been asking if I'm nervous, but I am thrilled to have two releases. I've given my 100% and hoping for a great start," says the 18-year-old actor.

Talking about the roles she's playing in both the films, she says, "In 'Ko', I play the role of a reporter who works for a Tamil daily, while in 'Makara Manju', I am doing a dual role, where one of the characters is the celestial enchantress, Urvasi."

Karthika, who wanted to join her dad's business, says that acting came to her by chance. "Though my mom, Raadha and aunt Ambika were South Indian divas in the early '80s, I never thought I would get into film business this early. But luck had its way. I couldn't have asked for a better debut with KV Anand in Tamil," she says enthusiastically. On being compared with her mom constantly, she says, "I was initially tense, later accepted it and now I've learnt to ignore it. I am here to prove myself and it's totally unfair to compare me with a legendary actor like my mom."

Probe her about what her mother has to say on her acting skills, she quips, "My mom has always taught how not to act, rather than giving acting tips. After seeing the rushes of 'Ko', she was proud of me and rather jealous, about the kind of debut that I was offered. I am lucky to have her has my mentor."

"I had no work for 3 years after my first release... I was jobless," says Mahakshay Chakraborty aka Mimoh, with a candour that's endearing.

Tell him this is a far cry from those newcomers who often say they're busy going through scripts or have projects in the pipeline and he says, "My dad ( Mithun Chakraborty) has always told me that you gotta be honest with yourself and by admitting that I had no work, I am just being honest. It was a frustrating period. Other newcomers were bagging projects, doing commercials, even dating all the hot chics in town and here I was being refused work left right and centre!

But in these tough times I always looked up to Abhishek Bachchan for inspiration. He's the son of the 'God' of the industry and has to constantly live with comparisons. He told me that people are always gonna put you down, but you gotta get up and fight! So, Abhishek's my hero!"

Telling us why he chose a horror film - Haunted - as his second film , the actor says, "Look when a struggling actor has no work and then a reputed director like Vikram Bhatt agrees to audition him and he messages him saying 'you're on in my next film', for God's sake, I am not going ask what film it is! I just leapt at the chance and I'm just so happy to have done such a different project."

The team of " Madhouse" (earlier titled "Sadda Adda") really wanted a Delhi girl for the item number in their movie, but lack of time lead them to hire Iran-born-and-Sweden-raised Maryam Zakaria to perform for the song.

The song was shot at a pub in Noida, and while speaking to us, the movie's producer, Rajeev Agarwal, said, "We already had our dates from the production team and couldn't delay the shoot, so we selected Maryam because she is a fabulous dancer and has Indian looks too."

The movie's director Muazzam Beg was supervising the shoot, and told us that we shouldn't look at the song as just another item number, even though the song is called " Dilli Ki Billi". He says, "The song is about Delhi women – how they are edgy yet bitchy, but you'd always fall in love with them. The item number is picturised in a pub where the actors have gone for a night of fun. So it's contextual." We later saw Maryam practicing her moves in a corner all by herself.

"People are shocked to see how much I eat", says actor Kunal Khemu, crediting his metabolism for not gaining weight

My exercise regime...
I always keep changing my workout. Sometimes, I need to look lean and sometimes, I need to put on bulk, depending upon the roles in my movies. I feel that an actor's body needs to be flexible. Normally when I am not training for a particular role, I workout three to four days a week for about an hour, doing weight training. I don't do cardio because I don't feel the need to. I am not in a rat-race to get a six pack unless a role demands it.

My diet...
I absolutely love food and eat what I please, as I have been blessed with a good metabolism. People are shocked to see how much I eat. So yes, I don't follow any diet because I eat whatever tastes good, even if its roadside stuff. However, I don't have a sweet tooth. I am not a brownie guy.

Fitness role model
Arnold Schwarzenegger as he's been a trendsetter.

Ideal celeb body (male)
Salman Khan because he has maintained his great body for years and is an icon for all the youngsters. Suniel Shetty too.

Ideal celeb body (female)
Bipasha Basu because she has a great body and is extremely fitness-conscious. And Shilpa Shetty too.

One of the most handsome men of South film industry Rana Daggubati is in Bollywood now. The boy plays a young musician and gets to romance the hottest Bollywood babe Bipasha Basu in "Dum Maaro Dum".

But more than his films, people seem interested in knowing about his height and search for it on google. So, in Rana’s case we can say the height can kill. The boy is gifted with a great height of 6’3”, and that also makes him the hot favourite among girls because it’s a known fact that girls just love tall guys.

When Rana made his debut with Telugu film Leader, critics heaped praises on him saying that he can even do English movies. Now this debonair man is going places and is said to have signed an English movie too and will be seen next in Telugu film "Nenu Naa Rakshasi" with Ileana. But for now it’s "Dum Maaro Dum" - his first Bollywood film.

It has been over a fortnight since the music of 'Jolly Boy' was released, but the one person who's been conspicuously missing is composer Yuvan Shankar Raja. Arguably the hottest property in Chennai now, Yuvan has the busiest of schedules. But, it is surprising that he's not said a word, nor is willing to respond to queries about his participation in 'Jolly Boy'.

A source says, "The soundtrack remains similar to 'Pathinaaru', the film that 'Jolly Boy' is based on. The Tamil original, although tanked at the box office, was hailed for its music, which Yuvan had composed for free, back then. He's just recreated the same music with different singers for the Kannada version."

When After Hrs contacted Yuvan, he didn't bother reverting about the music or the film. And the producer of 'Jolly Boy', K Manju, also maintains, "Yuvan is very busy, which is why he hasn't been part of the promotional activities of the film so far."

D Sabapathy, the director of 'Pathinaaru', has directed this film as well, which has Diganth and Rekha in the lead. While this remains puzzling. Does Sandalwood really embarrass Kollywood composers?

Now, this ain't anything new. Few years ago, Sajni - a film starring Dhyaan and Sharmila Mandre made news for its music resembling that of A R Rahman's Jodi ( which itself reused some songs of his earlier album Doli Saja Ke Rakhna ) and neither he acknowledged of his Sandalwood stint. Albeit he'd just recreated tunes from his hit Tamil film 'Jodi', he didn't really speak much about the film.

Again, Does Sandalwood embarrass Kollywood composers, we wonder!

Was she in hiding! Namitha's fans were missing her for sure. But no sweat. The actress will be back on big screen with a slimmer look as she plays a yoga teacher in the film which is titled after her name, Namitha I Love You.

What can be a bigger treat for Namitha’s lovers than a film named after her? After a long time her film will be releasing in Telugu. Yes, the lady is charged with oomph and looking hot in the film. She is even sporting a starry tattoo on her back.

But what surprises us more than the movie’s name is Namitha’s slimmer avatar. Though she flaunts her curves and is looking voluptuous, her body is in a better shape. She has also tried to look different with various hairstyles and jazzy clothes.

You can catch your favourite Namitha in "Namitha I Love You" this May.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has so far doggedly kept away from social networking. But on her fourth wedding anniversary on Wednesday, hubby Abhishek Bachchan persuaded her to come on Twitter.

However, Aishwarya did not open her own page on Twitter but rather chatted with the fans through Abhishek’s handle.

“Thank you all for the wonderful anniversary wishes. Will get Aishwarya to chat with you'll this evening. Much love again... Ok guys, here she is..... Shoot away” Abhishek wrote on Twitter.

“Hello everyone, :) :) and thank you all so much for all ur love and wishes "4" us on our special day. Truly overwhelmed. Love Aishwarya,” Ash wrote in her first Tweet.

Instantly, Ash was showered with congratulatory messages from friends and fans. From then on, Ash was busy ‘thanking’ the fans.

We wish for the day when Ash would have her own Twitter handle.

Bengali beauty Raima Sen is bonding with the Australian pace bowler Brett Lee nowadays.

Lee, who is currently in India to play for Shahrukh Khan’s IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders, apparently has a fan in the sloe-eyed stunner Raima Sen. She recently went on a date with Lee.

A day before the date, Raima herself wrote on her Twitter page: “And lunch with BRET LEE tomorrow....keep u posted”.

However, the lunch date turned into a coffee date, for she wrote after meeting Lee: “Had coffee with brett lee....it was fab.”

Raima also posted an image of hers with Lee and photographer.

Single-again John Abraham is seen bonding with female co-star Deepika Padukone in London. Is it just a working relationship or do we see something more brewing?

Even as the snapshots of Bipasha Basu chilling out with Josh Hartnett on the sets of the movie Singularity indicate that there might be more to the bonding between the two than meets the eye, perhaps the same holds true for John Abraham as well, who has been shooting in the relatively cool climes of London for first-timer Rohit Dhawan’s film Desi Boyz with Deepika Padukone.

Buzz is that while filming a song in Brighton, John and Deepika bonded like thick friends. John, decorous as ever, seems to have made quite an impression on Deepika who’s said to be dating Siddharth Mallya. Interestingly, she too hasn’t been seen with the Mallya lad for quite some time now.

In that case, it was perhaps two like-minded co-stars bonding on the sets, but may be there’s more smoke than fire to all this gossip.

Yana Gupta is set to give the Munnis and Sheilas a run for their money with a scorching hot item song in "Murder 2".

The item song was originally offered to Bipasha Basu who dilly-dallied too much and kept the producers, the Bhatts, waiting. Finally, an exasperated Mukesh Bhatt roped in Yana Gupta for the item.

The song, titled “Aa Zara Kareeb Se”, has Yana stripping down to minimal clothes, with a horizontally slit peekaboo top barely covering her assets and fishnet stockings gracing her slender legs.

The track was shot at Chandiwali Studios on a non-AC floor, but Yana did not crib about the heat.

No wonder director Mohit Suri is pleased with Yana’s dedication and her lack of inhibition in shedding the clothes.

Murder 2 stars Emraan Hashmi with Jacqueline Fernandez.

Kim Kardashian is at it again, baring her hot bod in a photoshoot for the May issue of the UK Cosmopolitan magazine.

The reality TV star poses enticingly in a number of revealing outfits in the photoshoot meant for the special ‘Body Issue’ of the magazine. The 30-year-old siren confidently flaunts her slimmer, sexier body and also reveals a few secrets about acquiring those killer curves.

She says workouts and diets are important, but it’s okay to pamper yourself once in a while.

“If I was stuck on a diet my whole life, I would be really miserable. I love to eat. If you can’t enjoy your life then what’s the point? You can’t torture yourself. I love Rice Krispies Treats, ice cream and frozen yogurt,” she is quoted to have told the magazine.



In the moment of victory of Vijay Mallya’s IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore against Kolkata Knight Riders on Friday, Deepika Padukone and Siddharth Mallya threw caution to the winds and hugged and kissed in front of TV cameras.

The win was especially euphoric because it was built on a bludgeoning knock of 102 off just 55 balls by Chris Gayle, former KKR opener now playing for RCB. Gayle who failed to provide blistering starts to KKR last year was dropped from the team this year, only to be picked up by Bangalore. Ironic that his big knock came against his former team.

Anyway, the crowd, though supportive of KKR at Eden Gardens, was still left in raptures by the Gayle storm and particularly euphoric were the supporters of the Bangalore team.

In the stands Deepika and Siddharth Mallya cheered for the Bangalore team and at the moment of triumph, they hugged and kissed each other.

The news channels played that shot umpteen times on prime time and we thought about sharing a photo grab of the video with you as well.

Hardly has the rumour of the Kochi pacer S. Sreesanth dating Riya Sen died down, that we hear of a new girl from Bollywood he’s gotten very friendly with.

The girl happens to be the Rocket Singh - Salesman of the Year debutant Shazahn Padamsee who was last seen playing the cute crush of Ajay Devgan in Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji.

Rumour has it that Sreesanth has been taking Shazahn out for long drives on the streets of Mumbai lately. Interestingly, Shazahn hasn’t denied that she has gone out with Sreesanth on occasions. But Shazahn says she and Sreesanth are “just good friends”.

The girl insists that she’s presently focussed on her career and is very much single as well. However, she did add that she finds Sreesanth “sweet”.

She better watch out! Cupid works in mysterious ways.

There is much speculation about who will be in Rakesh Roshan’s Krrish 2, the sequel to his science fiction superhero thriller, Krrish.

Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra played the lead pair in the original. Hrithik played Krishna, a boy with supernatural powers who follows his girlfriend to Singapore. Rekha was perfect as his protective grandmother and Naseeruddin Shah as the evil Dr Siddhanth.

Like the original, this time round too Hrithik will play superhero. But Rekha will not be a part of the film. It has also been confirmed that Vivek Oberoi is to play a strong negative character for which at one time Shah Rukh Khan and Ajay Devgn were considered. Likewise, Chitrangda Singh is to play a vamp in the film. Names like Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif were tossed around for the female lead, but it is Priyanka who is confirmed for the sequel.

This time, the science fiction will be a bigger budget extravaganza. If all goes well, Krrish 2 is expected to go on the floors in India in October this year. Rakesh Roshan will be directing the movie.
