Name and fame don’t come easy. One has to pay a heavy price for it. Many Bollywood actresses from Katrina Kaif to Kareena Kapoor to Priyanka Chopra had fainted on the sets of their films in the past due to exhaustion. The latest to face health scare due to over work is none other than actress Sonam Kapoor.
The news is doing the rounds that Sonam was admitted to Kokilaben Hospital in Mumbai yesterday after she felt weak due to acute exhaustion. She has been travelling from one place to another shooting for her films Mausam and Players. Adding to her woes, she has to promote her forthcoming film Thank You aggressively. This seems to have affected her health.
Well, someone should remind the actress of the old idiom ‘Health is wealth’. We at One india wish her speedy recovery!
This is not a first look story for Raju Hirani’s 3 Idiots... this is about the dilAfter Kambakkht Ishq and Main Aur Mrs Khanna this year, both of which didn’t do anything for her, Kareena’s performances in Kurbaan and 3 Idiots are generating a deafening buzz already... and Bollywood’s most powerful actress is literally running between real life beau Saif Ali Khan (Kurbaan) and good friend Aamir (3 Idiots) between November 9-15... because that’s how her dates have been allotted for promotions.
Says Bebo, “Both Saif and Aamir are very dear to me. I think I've created magic with both co-stars and it is impossible for me to choose one over the other.” She recently shot a super-erotic, romantic number with Aamir in artificial rain. Insiders say that though the focal point in 3 Idiots is not the Aamir-Kareena romance, it is still a very endearing part of it. While Saif maintains that there is a tremendous curiosity about his pairing with Kareena because they are a real life couple too, Aamir says, “Kareena is one of the most beautiful actresses that we have today. She is also a very good friend and we have both worked very hard on this rain song. I hope people like it.”
He’s done wet songs before with Sonali Bendre in Sarfarosh and in Fanaa with Kajol, in which his chemistry with both actresses was highly appreciated... but with Kareena, well, Aamir feels the chemistry is combustible. Any wonder Bebo is smiling like a Cheshire cat that has got the cream.
Katrina Kaif has become the first victim of the recent thaw between Abhishek Bachchanh-Kareena Kapoor relationship. The pretty lady who was touted as Priyanka Chopra's replacement in upcoming Dostana sequel has now been dumped for Kareena Kapoor.
Kareena has just completed ‘Kurbaan’ with KJo’s production house, and is currently working on ‘Stepmom’, co-starring Kajol, by the same banner. And the buzz is that she is all set to take over the leading lady’s title from Priyanka Chopra in the ‘Dostana’ series.
The film will now see none other than Bollywood hunks Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham wooing Kareena, not Kat or Piggy Chops. Although Bebo hasn’t been on good terms with both Abhi and John previously, the actors have now agreed to work together.
On the other hand, refuting the rumours of Katrina’s ouster from the much-anticipated venture, director Tarun Mansukhani said that he had never finalised Katrina for this one. “How could I finalise anyone until I finished the script except John and Abhishek who are an integral part of the ‘Dostana’ brand, ” he asks. About casting Kareena, the director said, “We are almost done with the script. At the moment I’m neither confirming not denying Kareena’s presence.”
Katrina Kaif is going ga ga over Kareena and their bond. Recently giving an interview to a news channel Kat was excited to talk about her friend. Not many people know that both the vivacious actress shares the same manager too.
“She is very nice girl and I like her as well as her work. We even shares one manager and I am a big fan of her,” says Katrina.
There had been news in the industry about their cold war but with this statement of Kat, she is putting it all the rumours at rest.
Kareena Kapoor was the unchallenged queen of B-Town at as far as her price was concerned. But Katrina Kaif started competing with her at every turn: with the price, the number of film, as well as endorsements.
“Whenever we meet each other she talks with me very nicely and I too love her company. I really do admire her as one of the great actress in the industry,” she states in the interview to the entertainment channel.
Looking at this statement it seems the cold war between the two actresses has ended. All’s well that end’s well is what we can say in this case.
Karan Johar has made a wise move and decided to release his next production, Kurbaan, a week prior to its original release date.
Kurbaan, starring Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor was supposed to release on November 27th along with De Dana Dan, starring Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif.
However, they shifted the release to November 20th as no other film is releasing on that day and they don’t want to clash with any other film.
Director Rensil D’Silva says, “We will be releasing Kurbaan on November 20 as no other film was scheduled to release on that day. We want to avoid a clash with any other film. Why not release solo when we have an empty slot? Clashes don’t help anyone.”
This has got to be seen. Imtiaz Ali's third directorial venture, Love Aaj Kal, is already been talked about for various reasons including Kareena Kapoor's 'ghost appearance'.
But Kareena's ghost haunts not just Deepika Padukone's presence in the film. Saif's character in a bizarre so-far undisclosed way is also wedded to Kareena.
Love Aaj Kal: Saif and Deepika get cosy
It now comes to light that in one segment of the film, Saif plays Rishi Kapoor who happens to be Kareena's uncle in real life. And when we say Saif 'plays' Rishi Kapoor, we mean Rishi Kapoor's character grows younger in the plot to become Saif.
This isn't the first time that two actors have played the same character. Smriti Mishra and Kirron Kher played two phases in the life of Shyam Benegal's Sardari Begum. But they were not connected the way Saif and Rishi are by Kareena.
Without giving away the plot a source discloses, "The same character is played by Saif in a flashback and then Rishi Kapoor in present times. Unfortunately, Chintuji has little screen time with his son's girlfriend Deepika. But he gets to bond for a major screen time with his niece Kareena's boyfriend and yes, they play the same character in two different time zones."
Without revealing much, let's just say Rishi's character plays the passionate lover-guy who believes love conquers all.
"At the end we see him with his real-life love interest and soul-mate Neetu Singh who makes a one-shot appearance," says a source.
I'm not a tough nut to crack: Kareena Kapoor
The Kapoors and the Khans couldn't have hoped for a better merger before Saif and Kareena's marriage.
