Salman Khan donates saris to poor women working in Film City

Recently on his show 10 Ka Dum, Salman Khan said, "mujhe sari pehenna nahin aata hai, sirf nikalna aata hai. But he recently bought saris for group of women.

The actor, who is known for his generosity, was approached by some sweeper women during the shooting of Wanted and they asked him to buy saris for all the women working there!

Says a source present on the sets, "Salmanbhai was sitting in front of his van chatting with friends at Film City when a couple of sweeper women came up to him and started talking to him. They started demanding new saris from him. He joked and said it wasn't Diwali or Eid so there was no reason for him to buy saris for them. But they started crying and pleading with him."

The actor then asked the group how many women were working in Film City. They said, about 35. He called his spot boy, gave him a wad of cash from his pocket and asked him to take his car and go out and buy saris for all the women. His boy came back with bundle of saris and distributed them to the thrilled women."

Boney Kapoor, the producer of Wanted, admits, "Yes it's true, Salman bought new saris for all the women working in Film City. He asked his Man Friday to buy them and then distributed it to the women who had collected there.

Apparently, he had given saris to some women earlier. This time they asked him to gift them. I was there when this happened. Earlier, he bought cycles for 15 children belonging to the workers in Film City, when they asked him to."

Boney says Salman always spends money on the needy. He recalls, "Once while shooting at Bandra Fort (where he has spent his childhood), I saw him giving away thousands of rupees to some men whom he must have interacted with, while growing up. They had fallen on bad times and approached him for help.

He spent time enquiring about their children. In Hyderabad too, when some poor children met him during Diwali he bought fireworks and distributed it among them. The children were so happy it brought tears to all our eyes," concludes Kapoor emotionally.

The secret behind Saif's younger look

Saif's got a new, smoother look. Just see the pictures to spot the differences!

Saif Ali Khan's face is now rid of the telltale lines and wrinkles. The actor seems to have treated himself to botox and fillers done to his face to get rid of crow's feet and laugh lines.

It is learnt that the 38-year-old actor got the work done while in London recently, for the promotion of Love Aaj Kal.

A source close to the actor reveals, "Saif was wearing shades to a lot of events just after he got the job done. This was to hide the tell-tale signs. Now that the after-effects have worn out, he steps out in day light without the shades."

Facial fillers, also known as "dermal fillers" and "injectables," are temporary to long-lasting solutions administered through a few tiny injections on specific areas of the face.

Botox is a protein derived from the botulism toxin that is injected underneath skin in order to minimise or smooth out lines and wrinkles on the face. The shot paralyses or relaxes facial muscles, giving the recipient a clean, smooth appearance. It is a non-invasive procedure and the results are immediate. Botox shots are used to get rid of frown lines and crow's feet.

Anil Kapoor blasts Akshaye Khanna

Anil Kapoor apparently got upset with actor and good friend Akshaye Khanna and blasted him over the phone for not attending the promotional events of his home production “Short Kut – The Con Is On”, in which Akshaye is playing the lead.

Even though nothing has gone wrong between Anil and Akshaye, Akshaye is said to have a problem with co-star Arshad Warsi and hence does not want to attend any promotional events along with him.

On two occasions, Akshaye sent an excuse saying he was unwell to attend the promotional function.

As this happened repeatedly, the unit members informed Anil Kapoor. He immediately called up Akshaye and just reminded him about the terms of the contract which clearly stated that Akshaye has to promote the film and if the actor is not doing it, he is obviously not honouring the contract.

Though both Anil and Akshaye have denied this, sources close to Akshaye have confirmed the news.

Love Aaj Kal’s music rocks!

Love Aaj Kal is a film I can’t wait to see. I also couldn’t wait to get my hands on the music because Pritam and Imtiaz Ali created some memorable tunes (we still like them) when they got together for Jab We Met. Love Aaj Kal’s music is fun, vibrant, romantic (of course) with bhangra and hip hop flavours with a tinge of country/folk and rock. Also, Pritam had to compose for the Pyaar 1965 track and the Love 2009 track, so hats off to him for pulling it off. No track on the album is intolerable. Our favourites are Aahun Aahun, Twist, Chor Bazari and Aaj Din Chadeya. This is the best album we have heard since Delhi-6 and Dev D. Go buy it!

Unlike Jab We Met, you may not like the songs instantly but listen to them a few times and you will be hooked.

Twist is something we are all addicted to by now. The sapera been tune fits in perfectly. Neeraj Shridhar’s vocal energy is unmatched. The rap vocals are reminiscent of Apache Indian. Pritam is brilliant with hip hop dance numbers and this one is no exception. It will set the dance floor on fire; even make you want to dance in your seat! The lyrics are very Punjabi like rounak-shounak, wicked-shicked, aankh-vaank, daaru-shaaru, etc. the step is easy too and Saif looks super cute in the video. Do the Twist! It’s sure to be a rage at discos.

Chor Bazari has a nice guitar tune. It’s a little like the relatively unknown but lovely Chori Chori Ankhiyaan from Race, also because Sunidhi Chauhan and Neeraj Shridhar are the singers. It’s a chilled out number. You imagine people having a beach or poolside party replete with thatched roofs, beer and summery dresses when you listen to the song.

Main Kya Hoon has KK adding his magical touch to it. The beats are almost electronic, so the song seems out of place on the album and it’s like something you have heard before.

Aahun Aahun is another instant favourite with its guitar prelude (makes it a great ring tone). Love the Punjabi and tu aaja dil janiya bit (what you hear in the promo) throughout the song. It’s a great club track too. It’s a fast track with hip hop and Punjabi flavours. Pritam has done a superb job with this super energetic number you want to listen over and over again. Neeraj Shridhar and the Punjabi singer are excellent.

Aaj Din Chadeya, sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is soothing after the upbeat and exhausting Aahun Aahun. It’s a sweet and pleasant tune that will grow on you. I guess it is part of the ‘Pyaar 1965’ track in the film. It conjures pictures of a turbaned Saif admiring Harleen in the mustard fields of Punjab.

Thoda Thoda Pyaar has the reliable Sunidhi Chauhan on the vocals. It has a nineties feel to it, something Madhuri Dixit would dance to. A typical shaadi ka gaana that’s not an assault to your ears.

Ye Doorian has a serene start with Mohit Chauhan’s calming vocals. The song’s likeable but it isn’t magical like Jab We Met’s Tum Se Hi which practically launched Mohit Chauhan. It’s about lovers missing each other; wanting to erase the distance between them.

The remixes of Aahun Aahun, Twist and Chor Bazari are nice. They are simple, nothing over-elaborate.

Rating: 3.5 on 5
Label: Eros Music
Composer: Pritam
Lyricist: Irshad Kamil
Singers: KK, Sunidhi Chauhan, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Neeraj Shridhar, Mohit Chauhan

Neil: Katrina, John and I are good friends

New York revolves around three friends living in New York whose lives change completely following 9/11. Neil Nitin Mukesh talks about his character in the film and working with John Abraham, Katrina Kaif, Irrfan Khan and Kabir Khan.

On his character in New York
My character is extremely important. Omar is one of the protagonists. He hasn’t really witnessed life and he gets an opportunity to go and witness life. The transformation of a vulnerable boy to a man is shown in the film.

On his rapport with Katrina and John
We had a blast on the sets. We never realized we were making an intense film. We share strong on screen chemistry because off screen, the three of us are very good friends.

I think amongst the three of us, Katrina is the best dancer. She is versatile, flexible and fit.

On Kabir Khan
Kabir is a great director. He is a National award winning director. If it wasn’t for him, the film wouldn’t have been made. It is an intelligent film with strong characters, drama, life, mystery and thrill. New York will even surpass Kabul Express, which I think was brilliant. There is a message that Kabir has left at the end of the film. It will hit people when they see it. Any Indian would be proud watching this film.

On his career so far
I consider myself fortunate to have done such diverse films like Johnny Gaddaar, Aa Dekhen Zara and now New York so early on in my career. These films have given a certain edge to my character and I feel responsible to deliver as an actor. The script is the most important thing for any actor. Characters can only work if the film works on the basis of a strong script.

On working with Irrfan Khan
It was an honour being in the same frame as Mr. Irrfan Khan because he is a legendary actor. He has surpassed all boundaries and reached international fame today. Just watching him act teaches you so much. He is an institution of acting in himself.
