Kareena: I can't wait to marry Saif

It seems like Bebo and Chhote Nawab, who made their relationship public last year, can't wait to any longer to get together and their wedding could take place after the release of Tashan on April 25.“Yes, I am going to get married very soon. Initially, Saif and I thought of giving our relationship some time before we get married. But now I don’t think either of us can wait any longer. So may be, post the release of Tashan this month, you all can see us wedded,” she told the press.Bebo also refuted the rumours of their secret marriage saying, "Geeting married secretly was just a silly rumour. Why would I hide if I had gotten married? That would be the day for me. Only I know how I’m looking forward to it.”Incidentally, it was on the sets of Tashan that the two fell in love. To prove his prove Saif even got her name tattooed on his arm."It's true, we came closer on sets of Tashan and that's the reason it will always be close to my heart. It was during this time that, Saif took me out for a candlelit dinner and proposed to me. By then I was too much in love with him to have said no,” told Kareena.So will she continue working in films or take a long sabbatical like her contemporaries?"Why would I stop working after marriage," she asks. "Today I’ve already reached the Rs 3.5 crore package and I hope to work and earn more in the coming years. In fact I already have some big projects in hand which are slated to release by the year-end."But will Bebo keep her words this time? Let's wait and watch.

Ekta told me to leave: Smriti

Actress Smriti Irani, who is set to return to TV as Tulsi - the character that catapulted her to fame - says due to her long association with STAR Plus and Balaji Telefilms, she couldn't refuse when they asked to make a comeback."I was asked by the production house and even the channel to come back. Honestly, I couldn't refuse since I have a very long association with them," Smriti told on phone from Mumbai.The actor portrayed Tulsi's character in the soap "Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi" for almost seven years before she was asked to leave the show by the head honcho of Balaji, Ekta Kapoor.Considering that her flawless acting was credited with taking the TRPs of the show to an all time high, Ekta's decision to ask Smriti to leave the show surprised many. But she did.Said Smriti: "I am in a professional arena and I never felt it was important to ask Ekta as to why I was being asked to leave. Similarly, I didn't even question her when I was asked to make a comeback on the show."According to Smriti, the best aspect about "Kyunki..." is its audience. "The audience of the show, which is so appreciative and loyal, has always been the best part," she said.While she was on a 10-month hiatus from the show, another popular actor, Gautami Kapoor, played her character.But Smriti said: "I don't know how well Gautami did as Tulsi because I never saw the show or her acting.".During her break from "Kyunki...", the actor concentrated on her production house Ugraya Entertainment and made serials like "Thodi Si Zameen Thoda Sa Aasmaan" and "Viruddh" that were aired on Sony TV and "Mere Apne" that is currently aired on channel 9x.Smriti also appeared on Zee TV's drama "Teen Bahuraniyaan" as Vrinda Mausi and her role came to an end in the show only recently.The actor is, however, confident that she will be able to chalk out ample time for her production house despite her gruelling schedules for "Kyunki...""I always managed my time well even while I was shooting earlier. So I am sure I will be able to do the same even now," she said.Smriti seemed to have no inkling about how she would reappear as Tulsi and said it was something for the creative directors to think about

Rakhi who is seen in a realty show on TV and was also seen performing at the Sansui Awards recently, balances her work really well and gives her best shot at whatever she does!Talking about her replacing Tanushree for the song, she says, "It's not my promise but my demand that I'll dance better than Tanushree. I didn't have time for the song.But as I came to know about what happened and as I realized that if I don't support the director then the producer will lose lacs of rupees invested in the song, I agreed".Elaborating on why she accepted to do this item number, Rakhi states, "I have Ganesh Acharya, who choreographed my song in "Krazy 4", as the choreographer for the song. I call him as Masterji.When he called me up and told me about the song I couldn't avoid it. Again I have the golden chance to do it with Nana Patekar. I am his fan since my childhood and it's really sad that I didn't have opportunity to meet him.He will accompany my steps in the song. It's really a big thing for me. And you must know the blasting effect that two Marathis together can create on the screen".Well, not to forget, Ganesh Acharya too is a Marathi and as Rakhi states, it is surely going to be a blast as three Marathis join in to entertain the viewers.

I'm not wearing any Bikini: Bebo

Though Kareena Kapoor is looking scorching hot in Tashan, you won't able to catch her her in bikini as reported earlier by many tabloids.Says a souce from Yash Raj, "No doubt Kareena will look hot in shorts too. The running promos have already proved that Kareena in her new make over is looking stunning."In her recent interview, Kareena too remarked on her bikini scene that she is not wearing any sexy attire in 'Tashan' and it is just a rumor. Though she agreed that her role is extremely glamorous as it was a requirement of her character.She also added that her look will be a new trend for onscreen glam divas. So was that hyped scene another Yashraj promotional strategy?It seems so as Tashan is cashing big time on Kareena’s bikini scene which may or may not be there in the film.

Himesh faces copyright crisis!

It looks like Himesh has decided to forge his individual identity completely separate from all the other singers, actors and singing actors who have come and gone.A decision has been taken to do away with the entire music score of Subhash Ghai's Karz and substitute it with a swanky new score in Himesh's Karzzz.Apparently the decision to do away with the L-P factor in Himesh's aspirations as an actor comes from the veteran composer Pyarelal's unhappiness over the way his contribution to the music of Om Shanti Om was treated.Says a hurt and angry Pyarelal, "Though I was initially reluctant Vishal-Shekhar and Farah Khan were insistent. So I relented. Finally after all my hard work there was no mention of my contribution in any of the film's promotion and publicity.Not even in any of the credits for the songs in the album's CDs when in fact I had been asked to compose three songs including the theme music for Om Shanti Om."This experience has definitely soured Pyarelal towards the film industry. "It's an industry I don't undersand any more," says Pyarelal sadly.The decision to keep the chartbusting songs from Subhash Ghai's Karz completely out of Himesh's version of the story decidedly has its echoes in the way one-half of the legendary Laxmikant-Pyarelal has been treated during his comeback.Though Himesh maintains his tightlipped diplomatic stance the neo-Karzzzz director Satish Kaushik is more forthcoming. "We did plan to include some some songs from Subhash Ghai's Karz by Laxmikant-Pyarelalji.But then things started changing once we started shooting. The original Karz doesn't have a title song. But Himesh has sung and composed a fabulous title song Ishq mere tere karz.Himesh loves Rafi Saab's Dard-e-dil and had the situation for our film. But then Himesh created an entirely new track in place of Dard-e-dil."Could the fact that the Karz song Dard-e-dil has already been parodied as Dard-e-disco in Om Shanti Om have something to do with the decision to do away with the original song situation in the new millennium Karz?

'Kangana has a perfect body'

In the glamour world, favours reap celebrity harvest.
Narendra Kumar designed the costumes for actress Kangana Ranaut's upcoming movie 'Fashion' and in return wanted a favour - that Raut should walk the ramp for his showcase at the ongoing Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) here.'Narendra designed my clothes. While designing my outfits, he told me that I would have to walk the ramp for him,' Kangana told after the show here Monday night.'I think his clothes are beautiful and believe me, I enjoyed walking the ramp for him,' the actress said.The actress walked the ramp in a one-piece white corset and burgundy lehenga. It was accessorised with ethnic costume jewellery.'The first time I saw Kangana, I told her that you are going to be my showstopper. Because besides being a wonderful actress, she is a great model too. She possesses the perfect combination of intelligence, body and the right attitude required for my clothes,' Kumar said.
But the actress was not the only one who caught eyeballs. Glamour icons like Simi Garewal, Rahul Bose, Hritesh Deshmukh and director Madhur Bhandarkar were seated in the front row of the star-studded show.'It was a great show. Kangana is a very good actress and an amazing model. Whatever she does, it's with full sincerity,' Bhandarkar raved.Bose said: 'When I came for the show, I knew I was going to see well-finished sophisticated clothes, but what rprised me was the wonderful colour palette - pinks, reds and browns. The stuff was exquisite.'Moreover, it was good to see how people (stars) from one profession (film industry) come and support people of other profession (fashion industry),' Bose said.Speaking about the collection, Kumar said: 'It was based on the city of Jaipur - the pink city - its pavilions and palaces. It is about lost romance... something that everyone has at some point of time... and how when it reappears or just reoccurs in your thoughts, you lose the grip over your mind for 15 minutes.'As the collection is about romance the palette encompassed shades of pinks, reds, maroons, fuchsias, browns and silvers. Furthermore, the West is facing a recession. So one sees all kinds of dark shades in their lines.
