Five years in the Bollywood industry and Katrina Kaif has finally arrived as an actress after her wonderful performance in Yuvraaj.

Katrina reveals how she overcame her weakness, her language to conquer Bollywood,she says, “When I started, people were not only writing me off for my strong British accent, there were many others who tried to prevent me from making it till here. They didn’t do so in an aggressive or excessive manner, but they used to say things like ‘I don’t know…’ and ‘I’m not sure…’ that would suggest a not-so-positive approach towards me. But I proved myself ultimately.

She explains, “I always try and push myself to exceed expectations. I use this ideology in a positive way.”

Katrina also reveals how she always believed in herself and her destiny, she says, “The great thing about life is that you never know what can happen and there’s no limitation to it. Someone can tell you that you can never be this and never be that. It’s not true. Anyone can be what he wants to be and destiny plays a major part in it. God has of course been very kind to me.”

“I believe that everyone should try and live their dreams, follow them and they might just come true someday,” Katrina said.

Kareena Kapoor got size hero into fashion with her dud movie Tashan and now Bebo is all set sport a new look for her next flick Kambakht Ishq, where she will be seen aping the style of Sex and The City actress Sarah Jessica Parker.

Incidentally, Bebo was suggested the Parker’s look by elder sister Lolo, she reveals, “My looks in KI will be something audiences haven`t seen before. It`s completely different from ‘Tashan’, ‘Golmaal Returns’ and ‘Jab We Met’. I play a surgeon and a supermodel in ‘Kambakht Ishq’ and my styling has been done keeping my character in mind. I always discuss my roles with Lolo and when I asked her about ‘Kambakht Ishq’, she told me to get inspiration from Sarah Jessica`s Parker`s look in ‘Sex And The City’. Lolo loves watching the TV serial and Sarah`s cool, chic, glamorous and yet simple styles.”

Bebo then adds, “It`s very important for an actor to keep changing his/her looks. It`s a challenge to keep experimenting with your looks according to your role as Aamir and Shah Rukh are doing. After my size-zero look in Tashan it`s a sexier, more real and natural look that I am going in for now for Kambakht Ishq and Rensil`s film”.

While some Khans are fighting amongst themselves, some Khans are making each other cry, like Aamir Khan making Jiah Khan cry for all the right reason.

Jiah Khan who stars in Ghajini opposite Aamir Khan remembers the moment when she got selected for the movie, she was all nervous for the audition and eventually when she got selected she broke down into tears.

She says, “When Aamir and Murugadoss told me I was in, I could not believe it! I was in tears! I broke down completely. I was overwhelmed! I was so happy that tears automatically welled up my eyes and began rolling down my cheeks.”

Jiah also reveals that she cherishes the moment when Aamir praised her in front of her mother.

She says, “Aamir told my mother that if I was a part of Ghajini it was because of my own achievement and talent. It was the best compliment I have received that too from the best actor of the country–Aamir Khan. What more could I ask for.”

Jiah is awaiting the release of Ghajini.

Karan Johar on family, friends and SRK!

If you talk about Karan Johar, one name which immediately sparks your mind is none other than the Bollywood Badshah SRK. Lot has been written and guessed about Karan Johar’s special bonding with Shahrukh and a lot has been guessed about his sexuality, so it did not come as a surprise when the latest issue of ‘people’ magazine popped up this eternal question to Karan.

The reaction was a bit too hard hitting from Karan who went pat with “That’s not for you to know and not for me to reveal. My personal life will always be my personal life”. But well, that does not end the charm of the issue here. Karan features on the cover and you can find the ever-so-charming Karan share his views on his family, his background (how he had almost landed up in France and what made him stop), his very closet friends and of course, the one and only SRK!

Screening of Bollywood movies suspended in Mumbai

The terror strike in the city which left more than 100 people dead has affected Bollywood too. The Maharashtra government on Thursday ordered cinema managements to suspend screening of films under further orders. The order directs managements of both single screen theatres and multiplexes to suspend the screening of movies until further orders as a security measure.

“We have decided to close the industry for a day as a mark of tribute to those innocent people who died due to indiscriminate firings by the terrorists and to the police officers and constables who fell to their bullets during the shootout. We condemn the heinous act,” a joint statement issued by all the associations of the film industry said.

This was the most deadly terrorist activity in the country which began on Wednesday night, when militants attacked high profile landmarks in the city, including the Taj Mahal Palace and Tower Hotel, Oberoi Trident Hotel, the Metro Theatre and the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus Railway Station.
