This is how fab Sonakshi Sinha is going to look in Action Jackson!
8
So you thought that Sonakshi Sinha could look good only in sarees? Look at her ditch the desi look to look absolutely fabulous in Action Jackson…! For, this is how the girl is supposedly going to look in the movie.
To think of it, maybe this is what fits the belle better than the desi avatar. Although she can pull off the saree-clad look with grace and elan, it is this that she can look her best in as it was already proven quite a few times with the song in Oh My God and then in Desi Kalakaar.
It is with Prabhudeva that Sonakshi Sinha will be working with (once again) in Action Jackson and Ajay Devgan will be the leading man of this film. If there’s one reason for us to wait for the release of Action Jackson, that would be this utterly beautiful Sonakshi Sinha that’s going to take over the screens!Written by:Anila for bollywood.celebden.com/

Watch : The insane Nonsense ki nights of Happy New Year!
Yet another number from Happy New Year gets released and no, this one doesn’t have Shah Rukh Khan’s eight pack abs all over it, sorry to disappoint you. This new song Nonsense ki nights, is a wacky number featuring all of the cast where in they look kind of funny dressed up like someone 50′s or 60′s guy trying to be cool.
And then there are the lyrics, the lyrics, you must know were written by Farah Khan herself and were like that (nonsensical) on purpose. She was trying to make the song one of those wacky ones (but did she really suceed? because they don’t really sound funny or wacky at all). Although she says that this song was a tribute to Michael Jackson, we really can’t fathom why and how that is…
But nonsense ki nights is one really fun thing to watch what with so many stars all acting funny and then with all the funny dance moves.
Take a look at nonsense ki nights right here and tell us what you think..Written by:Anila for bollywood.celebden.com/
Ranbir and Katrina finally ready to move in together?
After working on their home for a very long time and making it as beautiful as they could, Ranbir and Katrina are finally ready to move into their new house. Apparently they’re also going to throw a huge house warming party inviting all the industry biggies before they move in sometime before the end of this year.
So if there’s one thing that is keeping Ranbir and Katrina busy these days, it is listing out the guests for this party while on they are on this short break from their careers after Ranbir’s surgery.
This is what a source close to them had to say about the whole thing, “Their housewarming has been pending for a very long time. It was Ranbir’s idea to keep it private and low key and his parents Rishi and Neetu Kapoor have been supportive throughout. The date of the party will be decided soon as the shooting dates of their film Jagga Jasoos have been finally locked in.”
Despite all this news leaking out Ranbir and Katrina don’t look like they will admit to a thing happening in their personal lives ever!Written by:Anila for bollywood celbden.com
Box office report : Bang Bang and Haider still rule!
Just as it was predicted by trade pundits last week, two big banners, star-driven films – Bang Bang and Haider adversely affect the box office collections of the relatively small budget releases of this week – Tamanchey, Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami, Jigariyaa and Spark! Not one of the films released last week garnered decent box office collections.
Among all the films that released last Friday, the comedy satire Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami was the one film that won the appreciation of the audience, critics and industry veterans alike. The film that released last weekend impressed everyone with its unique story and good performances. While the Nikhil Dwivedi-Richa Chadda starrer Tamanchey and Jigariyaa featuring two newcomers – Harshvardhan and Cherry Mardia also failed to impress the audience and registered earnings in mere lakhs.
Distributor-exhibitor Akshaye Rathi speaks on this all saying, “It was expected to be a lull week considering the pre-election fever and Bang Bang and Haider already doing well in its second week. Last week releases are mostly an assortment of genres – a political satire, a love story, an on-the-run rom-com but all these films didn’t work. It’s certainly not a good time releasing films in states like Maharashtra and Haryana.”
Rathi, however is hopeful of next week of which he had to say, “The horror film, Mumbai 125 kms could work well for the masses as horror is quite liked by people. If you remember, Vikram Bhatt’s 1920 Evil Returns released before two major films Jab Tak Hai Jaan and Son Of Sardaar did fairly well before. So there are expectations from Mumbai 125 kms..

Paris Hilton wants to play Hrithik’s love interest in a Bollywood film.
Paris Hilton
After meeting Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan at the launch of Cle Restaurant in Dubai a few days ago and tweeting about it, she was quizzed by friend Sheeraz Hasan (founder of Hollywood.TV) about doing a film with Hrithik and playing his love interest. Paris responded with, "Yes! He's Hot RT @sheerazhasan: Hey @ParisHilton do u want to be @iHrithik love interest in his next Bollywood movie?"
Speaking about her meeting with the actor, Paris told Sheeraz, "Hrithik's a gentleman, very sweet and charming, and we hung out all night. I have heard so much about Bollywood and Hrithik represented India in the most elegant and romantic way! I can't wait to go back to India. I love the culture, the people and the fashion...India rocks."
Paris has been approached by various Bollywood producers in the past to star in a Bollywood movie as well as record her next single with an Indian artiste. Says Sheeraz, "I have already started receiving messages from some of the biggest players in Bollywood after Paris sent out the tweet... We will make this happen.
If there is one contestant in Bigg Boss Season 8, from whom others could take a lesson in determination and team spirit, it is undoubtedly Bollywood actress Sonali Raut.
The Xpose heroine met not with one, two or three, but four consecutive accidents in Bigg Boss, when she repeatedly fell on slippery vehicular fuel, which had dripped on a thin parapet, while doing the TVS Scooty Zest 110 task opposite Soni Singh.
But to everyone's surprise, each and every time she fell with a solid hurting thud on her hips and back, Sonali sportingly got up without making a fuss about her pain and continued the task.
"In Bigg Boss, Sonali has constantly shown what real women of substance are made of. She has proved that she's not only a diva, but also the most determined Housemate, in a uniquely calm and restrained way," remarks her proud publicist Dale Bhagwagar.
"With the kind of deadly falls she underwent, someone else in her place would have cribbed, cried and done a lot of drama, apart from giving up on the task midway. But not Sonali. Isse kehte hai, winner material," he beams.
In fact, after Sonali slipped for the fourth time, Minissha Lamba even suggested that they should stop the task while Sushant Divgikar rushed to her and gave a tight hug.
"The thuds were terrible and we all saw it. But look at Sonali's spirit and guts. She got up every time she fell and continued, until the task ending buzzer went off," Dale points out, "just hoping, she hasn't hurt herself with any deep tissue or bone injury".
So true! Sonali may have lost the task to Soni Singh, but emerged as the real winner in the eyes of the viewers.By Santa Banta News Network
After Bang Bang, what mission is Hrithik Roshan currently on?
Hrithik Roshan, aglow with the success of his latest release Bang Bang!, is making no effort to conceal his happiness.
His uber-desirable image - now that he is no longer bound by the shackles of marriage - is coming off as a huge hit with his fans. While people flock to theatres to ogle at his chiseled body and Greek-God-ish features, the actor is already on a more important mission - that of being the happiest man in the world.
Hrithik Roshan wants to be the happiest man in the world
When a daily caught up with the actor, and asked him if he sees himself married again, Roshan replied, "Right now I am focused on my kids and work. But I am sure of one thing, I have a mission of being the happiest man in the world, and I am gonna achieve that."
The actor further added, "Some winters may last long but eventually the sun comes out. I am going to be an example of the utmost magnificent life you can ever hope to achieve."

Revealed: Sunny Leone starrer Leela's plot!!!
Filmmaker Bobby Khan has roped in adult star Sunny Leone for his "Leela" and says his directorial debut is a clean family drama, but adds that the actress' glamour quotient will be high and he would try for an U/A certificate for the movie.
"The script of the film is very strong and it's a clean family drama, but we do understand that since Sunny is part of the project, there is a lot of expectation from the audience, so I can't cheat my audience," Bobby told IANS.
The actress had scorched the screen with her bold avatar in "Ragini MMS 2" and "Jism 2".
"All I can say is though it is a family drama, Sunny's glamour quotient will be high in the film. There are a few scenes in the film which require a little boldness, but we have shot it subtly and not shown it over the top.
"As a director I will try my best to fight and get a U/A certificate for the film, so let's see," he added.
The film has been widely shot in Rajasthan.
Talking about Sunny's look in the film, Bobby said: "Sunny plays three characters in the film, so she has three different looks. I can assure you that Sunny will be seen in a never-seen-before avatar on the celluloid. I have tried to make her look like a Bollywood heroine and I hope the audience accepts it."byy....santa banta news network..
Here's the thing. Crime doesn't pay ... right? It's not meant to ... right? So how come it's shown to be so much fun in the movies?
In "Tamanchey", the underrated Nikhil Dwivedi and the spunky bundle of contradictory emotions Richa Chadha seem like dropout students of the cool school. He is a hardcore Bihari named Munna and she's Babu, a wannabe Lady Gaga masquerading as a borderline sociopath from the Delhi-Haryanvi belt. Her make-up never falters. She is a 'behenji' masquerading as a style icon in a crime-infested countryside.
Together Munna and Babu don't quite add up to an updated version of Robert Redford-Faye Dunaway pair in the mother of heist capers "Bonnie & Clyde". But there is something about Munna and Babu. He wears his heart on his dirty sleeve. She wears her cleavage with the surety of woman who knows she can cash it for a life of luxury whenever she wants. Such adventurous women are often very uncertain in their innerscape.
Richa brings out the demoniacal uncertainties of Babu (we have to wait till the final moments to know her real name) in scenes where her made-up face crumbles to expose a childlike vulnerability. Both Richa and Nikhil are effectively tragic in the finale when they play a game of domestic normalcy in a run-down building as the cops close in on them.
What I liked about Richa's chemistry with Nikhil is that there is no chemistry.
Nikhil's Munna falls in love with these women of laughable affectations. Babu is full of 'angrezi' innuendos and make-up borrowed from Lady Gaga's backstage booty.
It's easy for the Munnas of the world to fall for this kind of a woman who knows how to use her sexuality to make her way in a callous world.
Babu is the bed partner of a drug dealer Tau (newcomer Damandeep Singh Siddhu). The narrative's mid-section shows Munna and Babu outwitting the drug baron, stealing kisses and a lot more right under his hawk-like eyes. Stretching the precincts of believability, "Tamanchey" yet manages to remain grittier than other recent crime capers.
The writing is fluent when it wants to be.
"Tamanchey" shows that the nozzle of the gun is not the best place to place your dreams. There are sharply written lines by Shailesh Pratap Singh, specially the ones that Nikhil's character speaks.
Nikhil in fact delivers a heartbreaking performance as a simpleton who flips for the siren and is willing to go to any lengths to get her. At times his baba-in-the-woods act reminded one of Raj Kapoor in "Sri 420".
Here is an actor, who has repeatedly proved himself to be better than many so-called stars in Bollywood. Wonder what keeps him from getting there.
"Tamanchey" gives Nikhil and the rest of the cast the kind of unvarnished crime canvas, which actors crave to get when they are in the mood to impress the awards jury.
Tragically, the sharp dialogues are often unsupported by the screenplay that gets borderline implausible towards the end before veering sharply away from disaster with a well-staged climactic shootout.
So yes, crime doesn't pay finally. But it sure as hell provides ample room for filmmakers to explore the grey region without bothering about remaining rooted to a moral ground. Wild and wacky "Tamanchey" is an enjoyable roller coaster ride about two mismatched criminals on the run who fall hopelessly in love.
You know where this reckless couple is hurtling to. But that doesn't stop this bang-bang affair from being a fun ride.By Santa Banta News Network

Both 'Daawat-e-Ishq' and 'Khoobsurat' have not lived up to industry expectations
In its first weekend, Daawat-e-Ishq has collected Rs 13.75 crore while Khoobsurat's collections stand at Rs 11.5 crore.
Trade analyst Rajesh Thadani says that the collection of the former was higher than that of Khoobsurat in the first two days. `It also had an advantage in that it had a higher screen count. But Khoobsurat saw a jump in its collection on Sunday.'' Vishal Anand of Fun Cinemas says that the food yatra that Daawat-e-Ishq's cast went on has helped the film fare better.
Trade analysts are hoping that both films will do better in the coming week. Trade analyst Amod Mehra says, `Both films received a cold response. On Saturday, Khoobsurat clocked good numbers, but yes, it's still less than what was expected.`
Meanwhile... It may be pointed out that Khoobsurat has released across 47 screens in Pakistan while Daawat-e-Ishq has only bagged 27 screens in the neighbouring country. There is also buzz that Khoobsurat, which stars Pakistani actor Fawad Khan opposite Sonam Kapoor, has garnered the ninth highest opening ever in Pakistan.
Pakistani distributor Amjad Rashid says, `Here the opening day collection of Khoobusurat was over Rs 10 million while Daawat-e-Ishq has collected Rs 4 million.'' As per trade sources, Khoobsurat's collection in Pakistan stands at around Rs 2.45 crore (Pakistani rupees).By Santa Banta News Network
Deepika Padukone: Bollywood star in titillation row with Times of India
Actor says she feels violated and is standing up for women, but Times of India accuses her of hypocrisy

One of India’s best-known actors has been accused of hypocrisy after she criticised the country’s best-selling English-language newspaper for drawing attention to her cleavage.
The Times of India tweeted a link to a video clip showing the chest and neck of Deepika Padukone, 28, shot from a high angle apparently by a press cameraman, to the 75,000 followers of its entertainment account. The tweet read: “OMG! Deepika Padukone’s cleavage show”. The video, reported to be a year old, was also posted on the newspaper’s entertainment site.
The newspaper and Padukone have since traded accusations on social media, on television and in print. “I felt violated as a woman,” the former model told Barkha Dutt, one of India’s few leading female journalists on television.
The dispute took another turn on Monday when the Times of India published a response to a statement posted by Padukone on her Facebook page at the weekend arguing that the media should distinguish between her “reel” – cinematic – and “real” personalities.
“Deepika, we accept your reel vs real argument, but what about all the times, and there have been many, when you have flaunted your body off screen – while dancing on stage, posing for magazine covers, or doing photo ops at movie promotional functions? What ‘role’ do you play there? So why the hypocrisy?” senior editor Priya Gupta said in the article. The newspaper also accused the actor of seeking to publicise her latest film.
Other Bollywood stars, male and female, have rushed to Padukone’s defence. “Well done taken a stand for all of us,” said Priyanka Chopra, another Bollywood A-lister, after Padukone first hit back at the newspaper.
Shah Rukh Khan, who has played male leads in several recent films starring Padukone, said he and others did not “have the guts to do what she has done”.
The row has focused attention on ethics in India’s chaotic and highly competitive media. “There are pictures like this every day, particularly of foreign women in the press. The younger generation is changing but there are still very many in the Indian middle class who have traditional views,” said Ranjana Kumari, director of the Centre for Social Research in Delhi.
A series of high-profile incidents in India have raised deep concerns about violence against women in India. The representation of women in Bollywood films, particularly storylines featuring persistent lovers pursuing unwanted advances, has been cited as a contributory factor.
Senior politicians, police officials and others have frequently blamed rapes and other assaults on women’s dress and behaviour. Recently Narendra Modi, the newly elected prime minister, said the blame should lie with the young men responsible for violence and harassment, not their victims.
“I want to ask parents: when your daughter turns 10 or 12 years old, you ask ‘where are you going? When will you return?’ [But] do the parents dare to ask their sons ‘where are you going? Who are your friends?’ After all, the rapist is also someone’s son,” Modi said.
Padukone has said her stance is “not about being a celebrity”. She told the news channel NDTV: “I am standing up for all the women and all the girls … in India and around the world.”
