गर्लफ्रेंड के पापा को रिश्ता मंजूर नहीं...?lipika varma/amarujala/3.6.2014

गर्लफ्रेंड के पापा को रिश्ता मंजूर नहीं...?
बॉलीवुड के युवा निर्देशक अनुराग कश्यप इन दिनों अपसेट हैं क्योंकि उनकी नई प्रेमिका सबरीना खान के पापा को दोनों के अफेयर के बारे में पता चल गया है। सबरीना के पिता ने बेटी से इस रिश्ते के बारे में यह कहते हुए इनकार कर दिया कि जिसकी (अनुराग) पहले भी दो शादियां असफल रह चुकी हैं, वह तुम्हारे साथ कितने दिन रिश्ता निभाएगा। अब सबरीना कई दिनों से ऑफिस भी नहीं आ-जा रही हैं। ऐसे में अनुराग का परेशान होना लाजमी है। आपको बता दें कि 2009 में आरती बजाज से तलाक लेने के बाद कई दिनों तक कल्कि कोचलिन के साथ लिव-इन रिलेशन में रहने के बाद अनुराग ने अप्रैल 2011 में उनसे शादी की थी। बाद में दोनों आपसी सहमति से नवंबर 2013 में एक-दूसरे से अलग हो गए। हालांकि दोनों का अब तक तलाक नहीं हुआ है। अफवाह तो यह भी उड़ी थी कि कल्कि अनुराग से सबरीना की वजह से ही अलग हुई हैं। यहां यह भी बता दें कि सबरीना अनुराग की फिल्म ′बॉम्बे वेलवेट′ में असिस्टेंट डायरेक्टर हैं। सूत्रों की मानें तो अपने इस रिश्ते को लेकर अनुराग कुछ भी बोलने से बचते फिर रहे हैं। वह पत्रकारों के सवालों पर भी काफी भड़कते दिख रहे हैं। अनुराग के अनुसार, मैं इस मुद्दे पर किसी से भी कोई बात नहीं करना चाहता। आप लोगों ने मेरी जिंदगी दयनीय बना दी है। खासकर वे लोग जो मेरे साथ रात-दिन काम करते हैं। बिना वजह के वे सभी मुझे चोट पहुंचा रहे हैं। उनसे सवाल पूछे जाने पर कि अगर सबरीना से वह शादी करते भी हैं तो ये शादी उनके लिए कितना लकी होगा? इस पर उनका सिर्फ एक ही जवाब मिलता है ′नो कमेंट्स′।

Mumbai: Sonakshi Sinha, known as the Rs 100-crore heroine of Bollywood, will be seen in a new avatar in her next film, Holiday, opposite Akshay Kumar, a remake of Thuppaki starring Vijay. We speak to Sonakshi on her tryst with Superstar Rajinikanth and the experience of working with director AR Murugadoss.

Superstar special
“Working with Rajinikanth was a pleasure. I remember when I told him that ‘Sir, working with you feels great but I am nervous’. He replied, ‘Why should you feel nervous? I have worked with your father and now I am working with his daughter; I need to feel nervous!’ He is a down-to-earth actor and very humble. I enjoyed working with him,” she says, adding, “I am quick to learn languages and will dub my own dialogues in my South debut.”
When asked about any other actors she would like to work with, Sonakshi quickly rattled off the names of Mahesh Babu, Ravi Teja and also Suriya, which showed that she was familiar with all the leading young actors down south.

‘A.R. Murugadoss is a hard taskmaster’
“Working with director A.R. Murugadoss went in my favour because he is a perfect taskmaster. We have to follow him and until he is satisfied, he will not call it off. We had to do at least four to five takes for each scene,” she says.

New look
“My character in Holiday has a sporty look. Akshay falls for me while watching me boxing in the ring. I loved boxing for the first time. I used to play volleyball, tennis, basketball and football while in school and college,” says Sonakshi, adding, “We kept the look very authentic  I personally like my braided hair and the sporty dress I wore.”

I will dub my own dialogues- sonakshi/dc chennai/lipika varma/3.6.2014

Priyanka's Ex Beau Aseem tight lipped on jaju's Biopic? The latest buzz about the biopic of Prakash Jaju, the former manager of Priyanka Chopra, which is being the proposed feature film being made by Priyanas’s ex beau Aseem merchant has taken an ugly turn.
Priyanka Aseem
 The riled Priyanka has slashed a legal notice to the makers. Prakash Jaju sent us a message which states, “I have sold the rights of my Biopic to lime Light. And I am bounded under a strict confidentiality contract, Pl…speak to them”
While Vikram Razdan [Lime light] sent another message which states as follows,”Please connect with Me. Alankar Kriplekar of M/S Mag Legal.”
Advocate Alankar Kriplekar [For Lime Light]said,”I have not read the media reports,thus I will not be able to say anything on it. All I can say the Biopic is a proposed feature film which is based entirely on Prakash Jaju’s life history and we shall go ahead making it. The film is yet to be get an official announcement. It is in the pre-mature stage right now. We will legally follow all the procedures and thus get into the making of this Biopic –the life history of Jaju. Well! I cannot give away the details of the notice that has been received by us.It is very confidential. Nor can I comment on the media reports mentioned therein.”
Well, Aseem Merchant did not reply to our calls. 
However, Priyanka remained unavailable for comment as usual.
As reported in the media
Priyanka Aseem
According to the report the notice states: “Our client is shocked to note that while all the news articles mention the proposed film as your (Jaju’s) biopic, the promotions largely refer to our client and inclusion of aspects of her and her family life rather than references to you.
You are intending to collude with Mr Merchant in violation of our client’s rights, including right to privacy, defaming our client and lowering her reputation, seeking to subject her to hatred and ridicule.
Our client calls upon you to withdraw all the publicity material of the film with immediate effect, desist using or referring to any personal or confidential information about her and/or her family, desist from producing, releasing the proposed film and tender an unconditional apology to her.”

I am the fussy one, Kashmira not dominating types: Krushna

June 02,2014, 02.55 PM  IST | Lipika Varma

Krushna Abhishekh- The actor is all out for fun and frolic on reel. He makes people laugh at his cost.However, he is very sincere in his live-in relationship with Kashmira Shah…He is in awe with her persona and feels she is really a sweet heart.

Presently, hosting Entertainment Ke Liye kuch Bhi Karega, he also has a few films to his credit.
Krushna Abhishek
In an exclusive interview with Lipika Varma he opens his heart-

All praises for Annu and Farah Krushan says,”If Karan Johar was judging this show along with me performing as the host- then I would have definitely had some distance with him as we are not too close to each other when compared to  Anu Malik. Anu has seen me since the time I was a child. I used to go to his house and play. We do share a good personal equation. As for Farah, I’ve known her from the time she used to come to my house to tie rakhi to my father. I used to visit her house and play there as well.

Further adding about the talented contestants on” Entertainment Ke Liye he adds, “there’s going to be a lot of fresh talent for viewers to wonder at, but there is going to be plenty of weird stuff as well! We had one contestant who ate a mobile phone. I hope he gets some calls on it after it’s been in his tummy for a couple of years.” He laughs!

Refusing to share Comedy Nights with Kapil he quips,”When I was approached by the producers of Comedy Circus Ke Ajoobe, I thought the show would end in a few months. But now it’s been six years and it’s still going strong. Kapil (Sharma) called me to be a part of his show, but I couldn’t take it up and I think he got a little angry with me. Frankly, speaking I would love to share my own space. With Kapil around I would be overshadowed.”

Updating about his fils he says,” My upcoming film,” its Entertainment”, is for children. The film stars Akshay Kumar, in a pivotal role, a dog is the main lead of the film— and I, who plays an interesting character. We try to solve mysteries in this film. I think Akshay and I share good onscreen chemistry and the film will release in August…  My first film offer (even before Bol Bachchan) was Hook Ya Crook. It’s a comedy that’s directed by David Dhawan and stars John Abraham, Genelia D’souza and me. The film’s shoot is almost complete, except for the climax, but then the film got stalled and it has not been released yet.

Well! About marriage and Kashmira he adds,”Kashmira and I have been together for the past six years, but we haven’t planned our wedding yet. If we do get married, we’d like to do so in Los Angeles.  Maybe it is time we tie the knot.

On Kashmira if being dominating he says,” -In reality, she looks dominating, but in real terms she is a very adjusting person. I keep telling her not to show her anger during the press meets .She likes to instantly give away what she truly feels at that moment. She is not diplomatic at all. Therefore people have a wrong notion that she may be of dominating nature. She is one of the coolest person. Indeed I am slightly the fussy one!! Why do you think we are yet in a relationship? He smiles before concluding

The Hans India/2.6.2014/its once bitten twice shy for kalki/lipika varma

It’s once bitten twice shy for Kalki??

June 02,2014, 03.13 PM  IST | Lipika Varma
Unquestionably, Marriages are made in heaven but celebrated on Earth…Owing to this phrase Anurag and Kalki got married. The latest development in their relationship is that they are living separately.
…. The million dollar question is whether Kalki still has a soft corner for Anurag as she attended the premiere of -“The World before Her”- held recently in Mumbai. The flick is directed by Nisha Pahuja it has won awards at several international film festivals.Anurag presents this documentary flick, thus he too shared the same podium .
However, Both Anurag and Kalki attended an event held recently in Mumbai, undeniably, they even refused to cross each other’s path. Anurag attended the event as he presents this documentary, -
Ask Kalki on her visit to the event if it is for Anurag she adds,”I am here merely because my friend Nisha Pahuja invited me and she happens to be a part of this film-“The World before Her.”
Yet not divorced any chances of reconciliation? No comments" quips Kalki
Next we quiz….. Will we see you in Anurag’s next venture? She instantly replies,” No Never!!”
Well! Is it a final quit with Anurag and your relationship? Kalki said,” No comments” and walked ahead.
 Anurag Kashyap and Kalki Koechlin may have not been legally divorced yet, but they definitely do not want to see eye to eye at each other. Nor do they want to be a part of anyone’s film. 

After divorcing Aarti Bajaj [Anurag’s first wife] in 2009, he married the second time in April 2011, after being in a live-in relationship with actress Kalki Koechlin. They mutually decided to separate in November 2013. They are not officially divorced but Kalki and Anurag have been living separately for a while now.

Mumbai: Anurag Kashyap  has found romance   once again. The woman Sabrina Khan, is the young assistant director of Bombay Velvet. But, the million dollar question is, whether Anurag Kashyap will be lucky enough to tie the knot with Sabrina Khan.
Recently, at an event, Anurag refused to comment on our query, saying “I do not want to talk to you guys at all. You guys have made my life miserable. Also, those who are closely working with me are hurt unnecessarily. I am not keen on answering any of your queries!!” Will you marry Sabrina? “No comment!” Uttering these words he rushed away.
Our source adds:  “Anurag is upset. No sooner did Sabrina’s  father come to know about his daughter’s relationship with the 41-year-old director, who has had two unsuccessful marriages, her father  disapproved of the  relationship and perhaps that’s why Sabrina hasn’t been attending office for quite some time now”
After divorcing Aarti Bajaj in 2009, Anurag Kashyap was in a live-in relationship with actress Kalki Koechlin who he married in 2011. They mutually decided to separate in 2013. Though they aren’t officially divorced, Kalki and Anurag have been living separately for a while now.

Sara’s a pathetic dancer

SARA-KHAN 1.jpg
Sara Khan is planning to waltz into Bollywood with rather poor dance steps
In her upcoming film, Sara plays a dance teacher, with terrible dancing skills, who runs a popular dance school that owes its popularity to only her looks.
Confirming working on two films Sara says, “I have signed two films. One is based on ‘Santa Bunta’ jokes and is a comedy film titled Happy Singh Peppy Singh.”
In the film I run a dance class and am a dance teacher.” She adds,” I am a pathetic dancer in the film. But I get a lot of enrollments as the students find me beautiful. I teach them any dumb step and they follow me shamelessly. They even praise my dancing and put me on a high pedestal. The film is an out and out comedy film and I will enjoy performing the role.”
