Who is wearing what at IIFA this year

The talk of the town has been Kangana Ranaut's gown which will be designed by Rick Roy. It was reported that she has asked to maintain the weight of the heavy gown and keep it between 25-30kg. The danger of it being heavier than her is quite probable. Roy has been so inspired by his muse that he has used a shipload of crystals on 250 meters of pink fabric for this gown. Now we have to wait and she how she manages to walk with such a heavy dress. Wardrobe malfunction is not only a Fashion statement, its a way of life for Kangana.

The brand Ambassador of IIFA Amitabh Bachchan will be seen in formal suits most probably by Giorgio Armani, which suits his tall personality or if he wants to make an ornate statement, he will opt for a Abu Jani-Sandeep Khosla creation.

Some celebs will be seen walking on the ramp for their favorite designers in their designed outfits though it’s not yet decided that what kind of outfits they will wear.

Hrithik Roshan will be walking the ramp for the first time with his wife for designer Farah Ali Khan. And the dazzling Sonam Kapoor will walk for Anamika Khanna. The Fashion Extravaganza is scheduled for Day two of the IIFA weekend and will be hosted by the stylish duo Zayed Khan who will wear a Manav Gangwani creation during the IIFA ceremony along with raunchy Sophie Chaudhry in her best finery.

Amrita Rao is expected to wear a Wendell Rodricks outfit complemented by jewellery from the Gitanjali Group for the Fashion Extravaganza. Her look for IIFA is all about being colour and comfortable. Amrita says, “My fashion statement will express loads of ‘green carpet’ glamour for the night, and simple yet sexy dresses for the day.”

Her green carpet and cocktail parties look will be created by designer Swapnil Shinde. Shinde has been instructed to balance sexy and elegant, so expect Amrita to depict a mix of prêt and couture at the IIFA parties. Amrita will also wear accessories from design houses Christian Dior, FCUK, Aldo, Luxottica Group.

Sridevi and Boney Kapoor biggest collector of Salman Khan's paintings

Now Salman's Khan best buddy producer Sajid Nadiadwala will get jealous! Salman has gifted his Wanted producer Boney Kapoor two more paintings for his Lokhandwala flat. Salman had already given one of his paintings to Sridevi for her bungalow in Chennai. Nadiadwala has just one painting by Salman in his office.

A source reveals, "Salman is close to Boney and his son Arjun (who was dating his sister Arpita). There have been numerous occasions when Arjun has watched Salman paint and has told him to take it up seriously.

After the actor noticed Junior Kapoor's interest in art, he decided he would gift the Kapoors some of his work." Also Sridevi herself paints, and there are no more walls left to hang paintings!

Boney confirms receiving an original Salman Khan creation, "He has given Sridevi three paintings in total. Sri, who is an also an artist, had gifted him one of her paintings when he'd come out of Jodhpur jail last year.
When Salman was shooting in Chennai and visited Sridevi's bungalow for the first time, he gifted her a painting and later, when we shifted from our Juhu bungalow to Lokhandwala, he gifted us two paintings."

Boney has words of praise for his dost Salman. "We have known each other for the last 10 years. Every time Salman has managed to surprise me with his generosity and kindness. He did a cameo in my brother Sanjay Kapoor's film Sirf Tum for free. Salman's done No Entry and now he's in my next release, Wanted, which will release on August 7. He has always been a great friend to me and my brothers, Anil and Sanjay."

'I can't jump into the ocean wearing jeans or a frock!' says Kareena

Says Bebo, arguing that she's wearing swimwear not to win titles but because scripts demand it

After Kareena Kapoor made headlines with her bikini bod in Tashan, she has now donned a swimsuit for her upcoming film Kambakkht Ishq.

Bebo is not afraid of being a sex symbol, "From my generation, I am the first actress who is a combination of talent-cum-glamour. How many actresses of my time are not just performers but can also carry off hot sexy outfits with equal ease?"

She says her beau Saif loves her sexy avatar, "Saif's extremely proud that I can dress in simple cotton Indian clothes and act in Omkara and carry off backless swimwear in Kambakkht Ishq, with equal ease."

However she isn't fighting for the sex-symbol titles, "I am not aiming for any title. If people want to give me the hottest sex symbol title tag, it's their choice. For me, it's all about what the script demands. My wearing hot outfits are not intentional. I don't wear them to get a certain tag but because the story demands such outfits. I can't dive into the ocean in a pair of jeans or a frock, can I?"

Lolo wore a swimsuit in her very first film while Kareena started wearing them much later in her career. "Glamour is in Karisma's blood. Our grandfather Raj Kapoor, projected heroines in a glamorous and sexy manner. So why should I shy away from it?"

When asked which of her contemporaries from Bipasha Basu and Priyanka Chopra looked better in swimwear, she turns diplomatic, "I am the wrong person to ask such things. I wouldn't like to comment on anyone's personal attributes. I am choosy, not just with my scripts but also with my comments these days."

Shilpa's a 'safe', selective eater

Shilpa Shetty is down several notches on our gourmand list of foodies darlings.

Reason? She’s one of those ‘safe’, selective eaters who sticks to basics and doesn’t experiment with anything whatsoever. In fact, we were chatting with her post-IPL and quizzed her on the exotic foods she could’ve possibly tried there? Escargot? We asked. And her nose crinkled like a snail had crawled up her arm. Ostrich? And she shook her head. Oysters? No No! Octopus? And she almost screamed. Not even crocodile meat, which is served so regularly there? And she grimaced. “I love food. I’m a big foodie. And I can eat at any hour. But I’m not experimental at all,” she giggled. “Give me my daal-roti-chaawal and some basic fish and chicken and I’m fine. I can’t imagine eating crocodile and stuff — eeeks!” Well well well. We understand the lady’s concerns and her preference for safe foods. But then what kinda foodie are you Ms Shetty? Huh? Though honestly, the way she’s looking nowadays (read: like a million bucks) she must be eating right. Sure, sure Raj K agrees.

Deepika understands Saif

Deepika Padukone is a girl in love and she can understand her Love Aaj Kal co-star Saif Ali Khan’s predicament.She knows that when Saif constantly talks of wanting Kareena Kapoor by his side (in real or reel) he is only doing so because “he is a man in love.’’For a 20-something, Deepika has her head firmly screwed onto her shoulders. And she can handle most situations life dishes out to nubile actresses her age with a maturity that is far beyond her years. “Listen,’’ she says, “when Saif talks of wanting Kareena as a co-star all the time, I know where it is coming from. I spoke to him about it; and I know what he actually means is — like all couples in love — Kareena and he wish to spend maximum time with each other. It would be a similar thing for Ranbir Kapoor and me. However, the two of us don’t push for each other professionally. If a filmmaker wishes to cast us together, we’d be happy to consider it. But otherwise, we keep our personal and professional lives completely apart.’’Deepika, however, confesses that she is extremely nervous about her next film. “I was just as nervous before Om Shanti Om. There are butterflies in my stomach again,’’ says the gorgeous girl, who is making waves internationally as well.Recent media reports had Fast & Furious director Rob Cohen praising Deepika’s beauty and talent. A gaga Cohen had said, “Deepika is even more beautiful than Angelina Jolie.’’ Omigawd! What do we have here? A besotted director?She laughs and says, “It is sweet of him to say this. I was introduced to Cohen at the screening of Chandni Chowk to China in Los Angeles five months ago. And I’m totally unprepared for the praise he has lavished on me.’’

Aamir's wife Kiran Rao is pregnant

Aamir Khan is going to be third time lucky. We hear that the perfectionist star's wife is three months pregnant. Kiran was recently admitted to Breach Candy Hospital in South Mumbai for fever, where it was discovered. Sources at the hospital, where she is consulting a doctor for her pregnancy, reveal that Rao was admitted on May 31 for fever. "She was admitted to the fourth floor of the old hospital building. She was in the hospital for a week, " said a source, on the condition of anonymity. "During the hospitalisation, Aamir would visit her everyday. He used to come in late at night, after 9pm. It was obvious that he did not want any attention. During the week-long hospitalisation, the cause for fever could not be diagnosed, but it was treated. At the time of discharge, the pregnancy was normal and there was no reason to worry," he added. Aamir was earlier married to Reena Dutta and has two children with her Junaid 16 and Ira 11. He married Kiran on December 28, 2005, after he divorced Dutta in December 2002, after 15 years of marriage.
