Rakhi 'Outlandish' Sawant does it again: "Trust Rakhi Sawant to come up with something outlandish in whatever she does, talks and even wears. The Bindaas babe was seen at an awards show of a popular radio station in a 'jhatak-matak' black and silver dress. But what shocked the living daylights out of us was her choice to wear two different colored (black and silver) sandals.
What was Miss Sawant's idea to wear this weird and wacky combination of sandals is something we don't have an answer to? May be she wanted to match her black and silver dress with proper black and silver sandals. Your guess is as good as ours.
So, go ahead, post your views on this innovative fashion statement (pun intended) that Rakhi is trying to make."

Hello (Coming Soon)- Bollywood-Movies-Indiatimes - Movies
Hello (Coming Soon)- Bollywood-Movies-Indiatimes - Movies: "Hello... is a tale about the events that happen one night at a call center. Told through the views of the protagonist, Shyam, it is a story of almost lost love, thwarted ambitions, absence of family affection, pressures of a patriarchal set up, and the work environment of a globalized office.
Shyam (Sharman Joshi) is losing his girl friend because his career is going nowhere as he trudges his way around in a call center. His girl friend, Priyanka (Gul Panag), is also an agent like him at the call canter who is about to be snatched by an NRI techno geek.
There is also the aspiring model, Esha (Isha Koppikar), who is hopping for the break that seems to be always already eluding her and the man about town, Vroom, who is into well, things. The housewife, Radhika (Amrita Arora), who is constantly at the receiving end of her mother-in-law and a beleaguered grandfather, Military Uncle (Sharat Saxena), who has been barred from interacting with his grandchild make up the rest of the call agents who see their worlds crumbling around them as the decisions of right sizing are conveyed by Bakshi (Dalip Tahil), the boss.
It is a night when dreams will finally crumble. Or will it? For there is that call from God. Narrated as a tale within a tale as a beautiful woman meets the auteur narrator and promises him a story on the condition that he has to narrate it further, Hello, based on Chetan Bhaqat's one night @ the call Center , is the one remarkable story from Tales from a Thousand and One globalizing, urban, Indian Nights"

The theme of U, Me aur Hum-
We vowed our true love though a word wasn't said
The world was in bloom, there were stars in the skies
Except for the few that were there in your eyes.
The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn
The sun shone anew but the dance lingered on
Could we but relive that sweet moment sublime
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time.'
A relationship is like this woollen dress that I am knitting. As each thread gets woven with another, it strengthens the ties that hold a relationship together. Each knot has a connection. Its you and me and how we create a hum. A togetherness, a relationship. This is the essence of our film.
In life we value things that we strive hard to create. What comes easily to us, is oft considered of little value. Love and marriage need to be worked upon. The more you nurture it, the more it prospers.
For me, love should be constant. The biggest joy of love is come what may, that emotion is constant. When it is unaltered by circumstances, the security of that love is what makes a person grow.
In love, there is pain, sorrow, joy, adulation.. a variety of emotions. Its like you need the rain to feel the heat. Likewise these emotions test the strength of our love for another. U, Me aur Hum stand for all this and more.
See it to believe it.. U and Me make a Hum..."
Memories… at the 53rd Fair One Filmfare Awards -
The real reason, however, is that the First Family of Bollywood is in mourning. Amitabh's mother Teji Bachchan passed away a couple of months ago, and the Bachchans aren't celebrating. Now that's a 'fair one', ok!"
Deepika Padukone
"Deepika Padukone is clearly the Super Star – no lets make that the superstar right at this moment, with her latest release ‘Om Shanti Om’ opposite Shahrukh Khan. Before ‘Om Santi Om’, her first appearance was in the music album ‘Aap Ka Suroor” by Himesh Reshammiya for the song ‘Naam Hai Tera’. She had already made her debut in the film industry with a Kannada movie ‘Aishwarya’ opposite Kannada movie star Upendra in 2006. Deepika Padukone is also a leading model right at this juncture. Apart from being a successful model, she is also a hype in the advertisement world. Deepika Padukone was awarded the Society Young Achievers’ Award 2004. Deepika Padukone also won the Model of the Year Award 2005 at the Lakme India Fashion Week. These awards were the first step towards her success in the glamour world. Deepika Padukone is also a successful brand ambassador for a leading cloth line as well as Jewels of India with a present brand valuation of 80 lakhs. Apart from this, she has also been announced the brand ambassador for Kingfisher Airlines. To add to this she has also taken up the brand ambassadorship of Levi’s Denims as well as Parachute coconut oil. Deepika Padukone has created this identity for herself in spite of being the daughter of the legendary Prakash Padukone, who was the World Badminton Champion and is a brand by himself."
Bhatts next to be Indo-Pak Venture
Indiatimes - Advertisement: 
"The Bhatts have always had a strong inclination towards Pakistan. Whether approaching Shoaib Akhtar for the title role of Gangster or consciously making attempts that their films like Awaarapan and The Killer release in the Pakistan market, they have always had a Pak connection. The bond only seems to have got better with their next film which they plan to base in Pakistan. If sources are to be believed, the Bhatts plan to start their next ambitious film Yeh Dil Na Hota which will be a story based in India and Pakistan.
When we checked with Mukesh Bhatt he sounded surprised initially saying, “Who told you about this?” Sounding reluctant he reveals on further prodding, “All I can say you as of now is that the film will have an Indian actor and an actor from Pakistan. We are also looking out for a new actress for the film. It’s an India-Pakistan story”.
Will the Bhatt favourite Emraan Hashmi feature in this film? Mukesh Bhatt doesn’t comment on this. “We will make a formal announcement in 15 days time”, is all he is willing to say. Raksha Mistry and Hasnian Hyderabadwala who had earlier directed The Killer and The Train will be directing Yeh Dil Na Hota.
The studio lights never go off in Vishesh Films. Post Jannat , they shall start with this project while they also have Raaz 2 in theirhands.
Recently Vishesh Films also had a compromise with the music company T-Series with whom they had a legal issue over the audio rights of their film Jannat . The issue has been solved with the intervention of AMPTPP president Pahlaj Nihalani. As per the new agreement T-Series have let go off the music rights of Jannat to acquire the music rights of Yeh Dil Na Hota"

Kajol dances despite sprained ankle
"It's common knowledge by now that Ajay Devgan and wife Kajol performed a lovely salsa on the Jee Le number in U, Me Aur Hum. But what nobody knows is that Kajol displayed heights of professionalism while shooting for the song, despite an injury!!! 
Says a unit member, 'We shot the song 'Jee Le' on the cruise liner. Ashley Lobo has done the choreography. Once while performing the number in the evening Kajol had to leap down from the upper deck and during the leap she badly sprained her ankle and fell down with much injury, thanks to her five-inch heels! But despite that, she took some painkillers and shot the very next day for the same shot with full bravado!'
The source adds, 'Kajol is such is a professional and always listens to the director. Plus Ajay too was very calm and composed and encouraged Kajol to give her best'
Ajay says, 'I wanted a salsa song because that was the requirement of the script. First we decided what the requirement of the script was and then Vishal (Bhardwaj) composed the salsa number. It was an expensive shoot with more than 100 dancers. We had a crowd of about 600 people on the cruise. Once Kajol is convinced about the script and the screenplay you don't need to convince her about anything else. It was highly brave and professional of her to finish the shoot despite her bad leg injury.'"
