Mugdha Godse celebrates her 27th birthday

Mugdha Godse had won rave reviews for ‘Fahsion’ and she had also won a warm and close friendship with her ‘Fashion’ co-star Priyanka Chopra on the sets of the movie. So, it did not come as a surprise when Priyanka was seen giggling and enjoying her self on Sunday on the celebration of Mugdha’s 27th birthday.

Also present were her ‘Jail’ co-star Neil Nitin Muskesh and director Madhur Bhandarkar. Neil and Mugdha were seen enjoying each other’s company. Mugdha Godse really got drunk at the party.

A sneek-peak at forthcoming ‘Jail’

Percept Picture Company and Madhur Bhandarkar have been known for their realistic and hard hitting movies like ‘Page 3’, ‘Corporate’, and ‘Traffic Signal’. Now, they come together once again for another hard hitting yet sensitive tale of an ordinary man in their forthcoming ‘Jail’ which stars Neil Nitin Mukesh, Mugdha Godse, Manoj Bajpayee in the lead roles. The music has been given by Shamir Tandon and Toshi - Sharib, and the lyrics are from Sandeep Nath, Ajay Garg, Kumar, Turaz.

Neil plays the main protagonist, Parag Dixit, who has all the joys in his life- A great job, a lovely house, a loving girlfriend Maansi, a night out with friends at some suburban watering hole after a hard day’s job…

Things take a turn when after a series of unfortunate events he suddenly wakes up in jail- handcuffed slapped on his wrists, continuous questioning by Cops, being slapped and beaten by them. What follows is the young man’s hard journey trying to adjust to place where he does not belong- dirty, crowded spaces, inedible food, hostile cellmates, angry Policemen and weird rules of the place….


Neil has already played a role a bit similar to this in ‘New York’. Lets wait and see how he performs in ‘Jail’.

One is the cover of Jade Magazine - Run way to life for the month of July 2009 and the other one is for Marie Clarie where she appears wearing a green Roberto Cavalli on the cover.

Why Shruti Hassan got a nose job done?

Going under the knife to enhance appearance is not a new concept for Bollywood beauties. Right from Shilpa Shetty to Rakhi Sawant, everyone seems to be opting for surgery in a quest to perfection. This time it is the newbie, Shruti Hassan who has undergone a nose surgery even before her first film ‘Luck’ hits the screens. So, now instead of her trademark aquiline nose, she is seen sporting a designer nose.

However, the girl does not believe in hiding this fact and openly admits that she has got a nose job done “but not because I was unhappy with my looks”. Instead it was to get treated for deviated septum — a common disorder involving a displacement of the nasal septum which hampered her breathing and even affected her singing.

Admits Shruti, “Yes, I did get a small surgery done because of my breathing problem. It was done recently at a hospital abroad for a deviated septum. It was purely a medical need and has nothing to do with any cosmetic demands.”

“There was this bone inside my nose, which affected my breathing. Now after the surgery, I can finally sleep much more peacefully,” she explains.

She adds further, “Yes, I got a corrective surgery done and there is nothing to hide. It’s not like Pamela Anderson’s b**b job. I went to the US and got it done because this is a tricky surgery. If it is not done right, it could affect my voice and that’s something I cannot risk.”

Priyanka Chopra spends a quiet birthday


One of the most sought after Bollywood actress, Priyanka Chopra turned 27 this Saturday but there not no birthday bash for this girl who has always had a quiet birthday with friends and family since the age of 12.

“It’s always been a home celebration. My family brings in surprises for me and I like it that way because I really get worried when it comes to organizing parties,” she laughs.

“I’m not a big party person and I don’t like throwing parties at all. So this time a lot of my family members have decided to fly down to be with me. It’s likely to be a day spent doing nothing in particular - just hanging out with the people who love me and want to be around me to make my day special. That’s all,” she added.

Talking about her birthday resolutions, Piggy Chops said, “I don’t have any specific plan, but hope for peace of mind and well being. This year has been extremely good for me, and I would like to thank God for it.”

With many awaited films at present, viz., Vishal Bharadwaj’s “Kaminey” with Shahid Kapoor, Ashutosh Gowariker’s “What’s Your Rashee?”, and Yash Raj Films’ “Pyaar Impossible” along with Uday Chopra and Dino Morea, Priynaka Chopra says that she does not believe much in setting goals.

“I’ve never set any goals for myself. I’ve always been destiny’s child and destiny has always looked after me. I think someone up there always manages my life and does what’s best for me. So I just leave it up to Him. I just work hard at what he sends my way,” she said.

Sizzling Deepika Padukone in item number once again

Check out Deepika as she sizzles in the shoot for this item number!!

Priyanka Chopra launches the men’s line of clothing

Pretty and glamorous Priyanka Chopra is definitely one of the most popular Bollywood actresses in this tinsel town. So, it did not come as a surprise when the lady was chosen to promote a men’s wear brand – J. Hampstead that was earlier promoted by sportsmen like Leander Paes, MS Dhoni…

“I think a woman’s opinion is very important when a man dresses and I would definitely give my opinion whether it’s my dad, my friends or anyone. So I think having a female brand ambassador for a male brand was a genius idea,” explained Priyanka Chopra as to why she was chosen to promote a men’s brand.

Recently, Priyanka launched international line of premium shirts of global brand J Hampstead and on this occasion, models walked the ramp showcasing the latest collections of the premium clothing line.

Twinkle Khanna on the cover of Enhance Interior magazine

There was once a time when Twinkle Khanna was a promising Bollywood actress, but post marriage with Akshay Kumar, Twinkle chose to say goodbye to her movie career and took up interior designing instead. She has stayed away from limelight and kept a low profile after marriage and motherhood.

The lady who made her debut with ‘Barsaat’ now co-owns White House Store which deals in interior décor. After she had appeared in the January issue of ‘Hello’ magazine, she now features on the cover of Enhance Interior magazine’s latest issue. Check out Twinkle looking as graceful as ever.

Saif Ali Khan manages to rope in his lady love in ‘Race 2′

Saif Ali Khan has already upset his ‘Love Aaj Kal’ co-star Deepika Padukone by constantly saying that he missed Kareena on the sets. Now, he has taken ‘panga’ again with an actress, this time the sultry Bong beauty, Bipasha Basu, by ousting her out from ‘Race 2’ and roping his sweetheart Kareena Kapoor instead on the pretext of the demand of the script.

Saif has confirmed this news saying, “Abbas Mastaan understand the pulse of the plot. ‘Race’ was a fast-paced action-adventure caper. Not too many filmmakers in Bollywood would’ve done such a wonderful job of it.

“Yes, Kareena will be part of ‘Race 2?. We’re yet to flesh out the details. But ‘Race 2? has to be bigger and larger than ‘Race’. Otherwise no point in making it.”

Apparently, this sequel promises to have tons of action and special effects and Saif took special efforts in convincing producers to rope in Abbas-Mustan again as directors and Kareena instead of Bipasha for the second innings of Race.

While we would love to see stylish Kareena create magic with her beau Saif in ‘Race 2’, we sincerely feel that Saif is going to end up in a soup if he keeps miffing reigning Bollywood beauties in this manner!!

Imran Khan : 'I'm most keen to work with Kareena Kapoor'

http://bollywood.celebden.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/Kareena-Kapoor-Picture-042.jpg
He is the latest heartthrob in tinsel town and there are many actresses who would love to be paired opposite him. But the two-film-old Imran Khan would rather share screen space with Kareena Kapoor than Aishwarya Rai.

"No," said Imran when asked whether he is keen to work with former beauty queen-turned-actress Aishwarya. "I'm most keen to work with Kareena. Both of us shot for a chat show last week and I had great fun," Imran told reporters in New Delhi on Thursday (July 16).

Dressed in a casual blue T-shirt and a tattered and torn pair of blue jeans, Imran was at his wittiest and generous best at an event to celebrate the success of FM Radio Mirchi's show "18 Hamesha" along with RJ Stutee.

Imran, who also came here to promote his upcoming film "Luck", not only hugged young girls but also 50 plus women when they screamed out his name in excitement and cheered every time he flashed a smile for the shutterbugs.

He even sang few lines of the hit song "Kabhi kabhi Aditi..." from his debut film "Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na" and did a jig on the song "Pappu can't dance..." from the same movie on a special request by his young female fans. He also sang the original song "Jaane tu ya jaane na".

Though Imran looked little embarrassed due to all the attention he was getting, he loved every bit of his interaction with the fans.

"I always love meeting my audiences and fans face-to-face and I love interacting with them at live events such as these. I feel I make fans for life," Imran told IANS.

"Luck", which releases July 24, also stars Imran's childhood friend Shruthi Haasan who is debuting with the film. Apart from them, the action thriller, directed by Soham Shah of "Kaal" fame, has Sanjay Dutt, Mithun Chakraborty and Ravi Kissen.

Shahid Kapoor has not forgiven Ashutosh for insulting Priyanka at IIFA


Though Priyanka Chopra chose to stay cool and quiet about it, not many have forgotten Ashutosh Gowarikar’s verbal blow at the actress during IIFA when he commented that not Priyanka, but Aishwarya deserved the best actress trophy.

This has of course not been forgiven by Piggy Chops current boyfriend, Shahid Kapoor too. This is how Shahid chose to express his anger at Gowarikar.

With the completion of ‘Whats Your Rashee’, Ashutosh penned down a new script for his next film and then he approached Shahid for the film. Though Shahid has earlier committed verbally to do Ashutosh’s next film, after the IIFA ruckus he refused to work in the film.

Before Shahid, Gowarikar had also approached SRK but he too turned down the offer. Seems with Ashutosh’s increasing bonding with Bachchans is stealing away his old friends. Beware Ashutosh lest you fall!

Riya Sen looks ‘anmol’ in her shots for Agni jewelry



Riya Sen may not have had a joy ride to success on the silver screen, but the girl has definitely made her mark as one of the sexiest actresses in Bollywood. She has once again done what she is best at in her next flick ‘Shaadi of the Dead’, that is playing the role of a seductress. Riya is also known for her bent towards jewelry designing and is also known for designing her own clothes. She has had the honors of being tagged as the 50 Most Beautiful Women in 2007 by Femina.

Given the kind of beauty and appeal associated with her, she always has been associated with reputed brands. This time she has done some glamorous shots in pink for brand promotion of Agni Jewels with tagline… “Anmol, aap hi ki tarah”.

Not to mention here that with the kind of sensuality she oozes in the shots, one is compelled to say, ‘Anmol, Riya Ki Tarah…’

‘Kaminey’ - The countdown begins

Set to release on 14th of August, ‘Kaminey’ is by far the most awaited release at present. The film has Shahid Kapoor in a double role for the first time.

In the greyer shade, Shahid plays the character of Charlie, sharp, wily and despisable who makes his living by betting at the race course. As Judd, Shahid portrays the character of a trainee in an NGO firm and is honest, diligent and careful. Priyanka Chopra plays young, pretty and fiery Sweety Shekhar Bhope.

Charlie & Guddu are twins who can’t stand the sight of each other. However, fate brings the two brothers together and what follows is their struggle through the world of drugs, guns and money dealing with gangsters, rebel soldiers, rogue politicians and crooked cops. It is this struggle which makes them realize the importance of each other in their lives.
