Abhishek and I are a couple: John Abraham

It's customary for two stars to be pitched against one another in real life whenever they are paired on screen.The last time we heard murmurs of discontent was when Bipasha and Deepika apparently couldn't stand one another while shooting Bachna Ae Haseenon. But John and Abhishek get along like a house on fire. To their regret they had to shoot a music video for Dostana separately. Producer Karan Johar who just landed in Mumbai after two weeks of location hunting in Los Angeles says the song Maa da ladla was shot during his absence. "I left it entirely to my director Tarun Mansukhani and to the choreographer Feroz (who's Farah Khan's assistant for ten years). So you'll have to ask Tarun what happened." Tarun Mansukhani has his own explanation for why Abhishek and John shot the song separately. "I deliberately didn't shoot the song with John and Abhishek together. I wanted at least this one song Maa da ladla to look different from the rest of the film where they're constantly together, fooling around, chumming it up. They shot individually, so the masti of the rest of the movie was missing on the sets." Tarun trails off sadly, and then perks up. "The last shooting before this was for Desi girl where all of us were together. It was so much fun." The Maa da ladla song was shot on 15, 16 and 17 October at Filmistan studios and onlookers watched Abhishek and John arrive on separate days. "This is a music video which we'll use for promotion and probably for the end titles, "explains Tarun. Says Abhishek, "It was wonderful to shoot with John Abraham again after Dhoom. It was fun on the sets because we were all friends." Adds John, "Abhishek is not co-star or colleague. He's a friend. I dote on him. I love him to death. We never compete. We complement each other in Dostana. We share a great chemistry. Abhishek and I are a couple in the film."

Neha Dhupia goes back to her raunchy days

Around two years back Neha Dhupia had announced through every single medium that she would never go back to doing sexy roles or expose her body and enact raunchy love making scenes. Her quote, "Only two things sell in Bollywood – Shah Rukh Khan and Sex" had become very famous. She had done a lot of hot roles during her initial days in Bollywood with films like Qayamat, Julie etc. But as she began getting A list films she wanted to keep her image clean. But now her new co-star, the Pakistani actor, Mikaal Zulfikar (Shoot on Sight) has spilled the beans on Neha Dhupia's U-Turn. The actor has stated, "I am doing Jag Mohan Mundhra's next after doing his Shoot on Sight. It is called Room Mates and it is a love triangle featuring me along side Neha Dhupia and Sneha Ullal. It's an erotic thriller with lots of sexy, raunchy scenes." Well Neha we are not complaining if you have decided to go back on doing hot scenes!

Yukta Mookhey to tie knot with Prince

Former Miss World Yukta Mookhey is all set to tie the knot with New York-based businessman and financial consultant Prince Tuli here Sunday, family sources said Friday.Prince, who is the nephew of Nagpur’s leading hotelier Mohabat Singh Tuli and son of his partner Kukku, met Yukta at a dinner party some months ago and it was the fabled ‘love-at-first-sight’ sort of thing, say his family members.

The marriage will be solemnised in traditional Punjabi style at the Kamptee Road Gurudwara Sunday noon. A reception will be held at Tuli International Hotel the same evening.

“With both families readily consenting, we decided to tie the knot at the earliest rather than spending time in dating and stuff like that,” Prince told reporters here in an informal chat.

“What I liked most in Yukta was that her Bollywood background has not taken away from her the innate simplicity and respect for elders and the Indian culture that she imbibed while growing up,” he added.

A consultant with the leading New York-based J.P. Morgan company, Prince also owns two companies in the US megapolis, but has plans to shift his business to Delhi.

Prince said their diverse backgrounds wouldn’t be a problem. “In fact her interest in the hospitality industry will be of immense help to me,” he said.

The couple have plans to honeymoon in the Maldives after spending some time in Colombo where Prince owns two houses.

I was shocked to hear that I had to dress up as a girl: Shreyas Talpade

Moving over from serious films to comedy ones, Shreyas Talpade has won the hearts of the masses. Shreyas seems to be on cloud nine these days after being appreciated for bringing alive the character, Mahadev Kushvaha, in his recent film 'Welcome to Sajjanpur'. Let's see how well he fits into Sharman Joshi's role in his upcoming and well-awaited film, 'Golmaal Returns.' Q – You were new among the four actors in 'Golmaal Returns' so was there any kind of nervousness? A – At first, I was quite nervous but Ajay, Tushar and Arshad along with the director, Rohit Shetty readied me so well that I didn't feel new at all. I think this is necessary for the betterment of the film. Q – In the earlier 'Golmaal, ' Sharman could understand what Tushar says very easily. How difficult was it for you this time? A – Actually, the story's completely new this time. This film is not linked to the previous one in any way. Apart from the names of the characters, everything else is new. The best part about this film is that no one can understand what Tushar says and that creates comedy. But what's funny is that the audience will understand what Tushar says quite easily… Q – You're being appreciated for the getup of a girl in the film. Would you like to say something about it? A – It feels great to be appreciated and praised for it. We've all worked really hard for this. But all the credit goes to my makeup department for transforming a guy like me into someone so beautiful. To be honest, I had never even imagined it. Q – What was your reaction when you were told about your getup? A – When Rohit told me about this at first, I was shocked but when he said that everyone else is ready for this, I thought, well, let's try this. And what had to happen, happened. All of us enjoyed a lot. All four of us couldn't stop laughing when we saw each other for the first time in our new look. Then, all the girls over there too started to laugh after seeing us. We had to shoot as girls for three days and mind you, those three days were the most enjoyable ones. Q – After Nagesh Kukunoor, Rohit Shetty happens to be one amongst the young directors. How is the experience of working with young directors? A – Both of them have a new outlook towards things. They are also very focused on their work. They know what they're supposed to bring out of their actors and place before the public. As for Rohit, he's a very open-minded person. Working with such directors can be fun in its own way. Because of his kindness, I call Rohit a 'gentle giant.' Q – How different is this film from your earlier comedy films? A – I haven't done any special comedy in my previous films. This is the first time I get to do full-fledged comedy. In spite of 'Apna Sapna Money Money' being a comedy film, my character was in no way comic. 'Welcome to Sajjanpur' was a different type of comedy. People liked the comedy in 'Om Shanti Om.' So I just hope that I get a surprise in the form of 'Golmaal Returns' this Diwali just like I got one last Diwali in the form of 'Om Shanti Om.' Q- How much have you enjoyed this comedy personally? A – A lot. We had a lot of fun on the sets after shooting everyday and the atmosphere was no different from that of a party. I'm sure you'll be able to see that in the film. Q – Normally, actors play pranks on the director but here the director, Rohit Shetty used to play pranks on the actors. Were you ever a victim of his mischief? A – I was never a victim and that helped me become a part of the team very easily. Rohit's pranks would bring about freshness on the sets. The best part about his pranks was that he never hurt anyone physically or mentally. Q – It is being said that you are not Nagesh Kukunoor's favorite anymore because you are not a part of any of his upcoming films. Is this true? A – (laughs) This is absolutely untrue. Just like I want to work with different directors similarly, he too wants to work with different actors. If a character suits me, Nagesh will definitely choose me for the role. Every story has its own demand. If I wasn't his favorite, he wouldn't have done three films at a stretch with me. These days, he's doing films that require macho men which is why he chose John and Akshay Kumar. Q – So will we see you in his next film? A – Right now he's busy with three films so I can't really answer this. All I can say is that I'm very happy for Nagesh because he's been able to make the kind of films he wanted to for a long time. Q – Tell us about your coming films? A – Next is Sangeet Sivan's horror film, 'Click.' I play the role of a fashion photographer here. Mukta Arts', 'Paying Guest, ' a comedy film, comes next. Then is UTV's 'Aage se Right.' There are a few more films in the pipeline about which I can't say too much right now. Q – Apart from these, what about 'Hum Yahan Hain, ' 'Ishaan' and 'Main Phir Aaunga'? A – These films aren't being made anymore

I flirt with girls but I am not a womanizer: Vivek Oberoi

Vivek Oberoi at his candid best with Subhash K Jha. You turned 32 this month. How was your birthday? Well I'm working really hard in Cape Town. I totally partied like a rockstar with my entire unit and clebrated my birthday all night. You went into a shell and then emerged from it lately. Sometimes in life everything seems uncertain. So I began to see my life in a new perspective. I went through that defining moment of clarity. Now I'm very happy with my life. I wouldn't say I'm content. Because I'm very ambitious. I'm a kid in candy store. Why are you so low profile and yet rubbing so many people the wrong people? I'm not low-profile any longer. For the last two months I've been very accessible thanks to my last release Mission Istanbul. I don't know why there's a perception that I've gone underground. As for rubbing people the wrong way, on the contrary I find a great deal of love support and encouragement. I've made so many new friends. Karan Johar, Shah Rukh and Gauri have been extremely kind to me. Also Farhan Akhtar, Zoya Riteish …Akshay Kumar has been a huge support. In fact after my performance at IIFA awards Amitji came up to encourage me.Jaya Aunty was clapping when I danced. Abhishek also sent me an SMS which was really sweet of him. What other films are you doing? I'm doing Karan Johar's film directed by Rensil d'Silva. Again a brilliant role. When I read the script my first question to Karan was, why me? He laughed and said it was because I was talented and I could pull it off. And I love working with Kareena. We share a great rapport after Yuva and Omkara. We share a great chemistry. And I also look forward to working with Saifoo (Saif Ali Khan) again. I called him Langda Bhaiyya throughout Omkara. And Rensil is a fantastic writer. It's going to be on right after the Tips movie which I'm shooting in South Africa. Then I go to New York to shoot for Karan- Rensil's film. Neither the Tips film nor Karan's film has a title yet. I am excited about the work I'm doing. How much of what one reads about you is true? Some of it is baseless. But some of it might be true. I haven't held any talk about my linkups and affairs against anyone. I laugh them off. Sometimes I get interesting insights into my own life and personality through what's written about me. Is Viveik Oberoi single? Absolutely single. I'm not a womanizer. I do flirt. I like verbal flirting. It always backfires. Because if a girl reciprocates I get scared off. Not that I'm afraid of commitment. My resolve to find a soul mate remains unchanged. I've always been a romantic at heart. I'm waiting for the right person. I'm waiting for an ordinary girl who will make my life extraordinary. I'm high on this drug called life. Every day I wake up thanking God. Your sister Meghna, what does she do? She paints. She's doing really well. Her exhibitions are all sold out. I'm really proud of her. She was in two minds about singing and art. She finally chose art. Your career is not handled by your dad any more? Correct. For 4-5 years my career hadn't stabilized. Now it has. Dad was just not able to enjoy life because he was busy looking after my career. I felt terrible, like a bad son. I wanted him to relax, play golf instead of fire-fighting for me. At that time my working pattern was wrong. Now Amit Chandra's Surge Entertainment is looking after my career. But Dad still has the last word. But he has now allowed me to go out in the big bad world. Now I'm happy to see him relax, go out with mom. Do you still live with your parents? Yes. It's funny. Twice they bought me a place of my own. In three months I ended up selling my new homes and coming back to my parents. I missed them so much. But I've grown as a humanbeing. Today I'm more sure of who I am. I don't have to try to be anything. By God's grace I continue to do good work for the underprivileged. How do you know God is a He? The only She-God in my life is a my mom. Is the pain all gone? Long back. The Mission Istanbul team seemed very unhappy with you? That's absolute rubbish. I don't know where that perception has come from. Some people believe I was m unhappy with my role. In fact Suniel Shetty called me and said, 'You were great in the film, Tiger. You're rocking in it.' Even the director Apoorva Lakhia called me to say he loved my work. Apparently you got your valet to sms the producer saying you can't make it for the press conference? That's completely untrue. I got my partner Amit Chandra to call on my behalf because I couldn't get through from South Africa. Zayed Khan thinks you're unhappy with your role in Mission Istanbul? Zayed was away shooting for Blue for a lomg time. When he returned to Mumbai he must've been wrongly influenced by some people. Zayed is a great guy. And we had a great time working together in Istanbul. Unfortunately I've had no time to speak to him and sort it out. I soon will. Once we talk it will be fine. So you're happy with your role? Completely. Before Apu gave any other actor the script he gave it to me. He gave me the choice to play whichever role I wanted. I chose Rizvan Khan because it was an awesome role. Accordng to me my character was the film's hero. My character saves Zayed's life and inspires him It's a very heroic character. I wanted to move to the other side of the morality line after playing the gangster in Apu's Shootout At Lokhandwala. For me it was always Rizwan Khan, and no other character.

I've never learnt how to act: Aishwarya

Aishwarya has been traveling extensively. "The last couple of months have been very very hectic. I had joined Abhishek in Jaipur where he was shooting for Dilli 6. Then I was with him in Miami for Dostana. I also packed in Cannes and Paris...Life is beautiful. It really is. You know, life is as special as you make it for yourself. Of course you can't live your life in a bubble. There're people who want to rain on your parade. It's up to you how you protect your space." Aishwarya Rai Bachchan considers Guru a very precious experience. "It has been very precious experience on every level, and not just on a personal level. I'd say it was professionally very fulfilling. It's a really exciting thought for me and Abhishek to be coming together again with Mani Ratnam." Refusing to divulge too many details about the new Mani film Aishwarya says, "All I can say is that it goes into a completely different theme from Guru. You can't expect Mani Sir to go into the same space twice. Working with him is an exciting thought for any actor. The way he connects to his actors is very clear in the films that he makes. He creates magic on screen." And please don't blame Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for the delay in Shankar's Robot. The film got moved forward because the film's writer passaed away in February this year, thereby pushing the project back by some months. Says Aishwarya, "After Sujatha Sir's sad demise the project got delayed slightly. People chose this tragedy as an occasion to spread all kinds of rumours when the fact is death slowed down Robot. But now we're back on the track, though now we need to work on a tighter schedule." Aishwarya explains why the film needs extra planning. "Robot has loads of special effects. And the film will be using a lot of crew from overseas. All this needed to re-scheduling." Robot wouldn't be the first F-X driven film in Aishwarya's career. "There was Dhoom 2. And right at the start of my career I did Jeans. And that too had very complicated special effects. And I had to do it in Tamil. So I learned a lot during Jeans, as I hope to do during Robot." After a thought she adds, "Come to think of it I've never taken formal training in acting. I've always learnt on the job." Tell her she's now equipped to direct a film, and Aishwarya laughs, "Everyone says that. I don't know maybe one day." Returning to Robot she clears another misconception. "People seem to think it's in Tamil and Hindi. But it's only in Tamil."

Katrina Kaif runs risk of being exposed

Now everyone would feel that with her recent string of hits, Katrina Kaif would feel that she's the luckiest girl in the world. But it's really not like that. Apparently the dame is worried and mighty jittery about the fate of her next film- Subhash Ghai's 'Yuvvraaj'. The actress has reportedly says, "I really want this film to do well. This is my first romantic drama opposite Salman without the support of comedy like 'Partner' and 'Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya'. 'Yuvvraaj' is special to me and I want it to remain as a special memory. I play a cellist who is a part of an orchestra in Austria. " Umm… looks like many others she also must realized the bitter truth- that she's a wooden actress. There's no piggybacking on Akshay Kumar or other razzmatazz to bail her out here! She must be scared that only a good performance would save her day! She's added, "Subhashji (Ghai) spared no cost for my costumes. They must have cost lakhs but not once did Subhashji say anything. My styling was done by Rocky S and I wore outfits designed by Jenny Packham, Rocky and Tarun Tahiliani." Wonder what happens if in spite of all the efforts this movie too goes down the drain like Ghai's previous over hyped ones- 'Yaadein' and 'Kisna'!
