Pyaar Abhi Bhi Barkaraar Hai, says Madhavan on his latest reel love story with Kangana!

Will they, or won't they be reunited this time around? When Tanu and Manu met four years back, it was reason to celebrate. Now they are separated, and there is another angle to the love triangle, Datto. While Kangana is playing the female lead for both the characters, Madhavan continues to be his usual shy self as Manu. But, in the world created by filmmaker Aanand L. Rai, the complexities arise from simple situations in life and the underlining theme of Tanu Weds Manu Returns is - 'Whether it would take a second chance to revisit the first true love?'

  

"Well, all I can say for now that it is a complete discord between Tanu and Manu this time around," tells Madhavan, "Yes, at the end of the day, it is a deep rooted love story. Still, while people say that in so many case, after certain years of marriage, love changes or goes away, I believe it doesn't. It just manifests into respect and responsibility towards the spouse. That is where all the love is hidden."

  

For somebody who personally believes in true love and feels that in a true relationships, arguments can't lead to a split forever, Madhavan opines, "If there was no love then there would be no 'ever again'. It is only when you have deep rooted respect for a person that you let the worldly things get into your life. It is like - 'If you have problems and they are big, then it means that pyaar abhi bhi barkaraar hai."

  

"The only thing that can kill your love is indifference," he further adds, "It is only when you say that 'jo karna hai kar le' that it turns out to be the death of love. If there is anger, if there is wrath, then love is very much alive; it is all about manifesting it."

Ranbir gets support from family and Katrina after Bombay Velvet disaster!

Ranbir Kapoor might have had his faiths pinned on Anurag Kashyap's very ambitious flick 'Bombay Velvet'. But, the star seemingly has taken the big flop in his stride, reports a close source.

As per the close source, "There is too much going on in Ranbir's life for him to be perturbed by one flop movie. What matters to him is that his family thought he was great in the movie, and so did Katrina. Katrina was especially impressed that Ranbir has tried something so different. He also got a lot of appreciation for his performance from industry experts. That's what matters to him."

Found love in 'enemy territory': Swara Bhaskar

Human relations are greater than politics. That's what actor Swara Bhaskar has learned after two "unforgettable" visits to what she once thought was "enemy territory" but where, after two visits to Pakistan, she was showered with warmth, hospitality and free 'chai and samosas' for being an Indian.

Her first visit to Pakistan was in 2005 with a friend. It was, as she describes, "two college girls who just decided to liven up their lives by visiting enemy territory".

"I think that trip taught me that people are always more important than some policies or actions of their government," Swara said, post her second visit last month.

This time, she went there for "work".

"I had gone for some meetings over a potential international film project that would require me to play a Pakistani immigrant, but also it was a chance for me to visit friends I have not met in 10 years as I visited Pakistan in 2005 and made some lasting friendships.

"Both my visits to Pakistan were made beautiful and memorable by the hospitality, warmth and friendship of my hosts, friends and even random strangers I met," she further added.

The talented actress, who has featured in Bollywood films like "Tanu Weds Manu" and "Raanjhanaa", recollected how in 2005, on the bus to Lahore, when some of their Pakistani fellow travellers learnt that she and her friend were travelling alone to Pakistan for the first time, they made "three serious offers to stay in their houses".

"In fact, traders in Lahore's iconic Anarkali market fed us samosas and tea and biscuits when they learnt that we were Indian," she said.

After both her visits, she says "the one stereotype of Pakistanis that is true is that they are the best hosts ever and are generous and magnanimous to a fault with their guests".

"My own experience was that Pakistan, the place and its people were very different from my imagination of them. I think the internet and social media can play a very positive role in enabling the people of both countries to reach out and connect with each other on a human and more personal level," added Swara, who will soon be seen in "Tanu Weds Manu Returns" on the big screen.

I am an expressive person, Deepika is not: Ranveer Singh!

Ranveer Singh – the dynamo of energy, unleashed his thoughts about Deepika, his wedding plans, intimacy and his take on relationships in the latest known magazine.

The actor has been going strong with Deepika for quite some time and after ‘Ramleela’ the two will be seen together in ‘Bajirao Mastani’. Well known Ranveer’s fun side and how he never shies away from showing his affection for Deepika, the actor claims to be a “badmaash, mastikhor and badly behaved in public while she’s not”. He told, “I am an expressive person, she’s not. I am happy behaving in a certain way in public. I am impulsive. I follow my instincts in a particular situation. Baad me mujhe Deepika se sunna padta hai.

While he might have to listen from Deepika for being a badmaash, Ranveer talks about his wedding plans. “I am going to turn 30 in July. I had a different take on marriage, family and relationships. But I have matured. Earlier I was uneasy at the rate in which divorces were happening among professionals...I believed people were happier being single and marriage was redundant. But in past three years some experiences have changed my outlook.”

“Now, the actor believes in monogyny. I believe in marriage. I believe that the best thing one can be is an honorable family man,” tells Ranveer.

The actor looks back and talks about leading a carefree life previously, but now things are different as he has calmed down. “Till about three years ago I didn't want to grow up. I would not even behave my age. Now I think deep. I don’t resist predisposition towards intimacy; I don’t resist the predisposition to lateral thoughts, conflict and argument. I've become interested in world news, world issues. Earlier, I was carefree, reckless and silly. I didn't care at all. Now, I do.”

Vidya Balan is playing an abused wife in her next!

Gifted actress Vidya Balan has been known to take on challenging and hard hitting roles. She wowed viewers by portraying a pregnant woman in search of her husband in Sujoy Ghosh's Kahaani, and will now essay the role of a victim of domestic abuse in Mohit Suri's Hamari Adhuri Kahani. The movie features Rajkummar Rao as her husband and Emraan Hashmi as her lover.
 

For most actresses, playing a victim of abuse can be physically and emotionally tiring. But surprisingly, Vidya says that for the first time, a role did not drain her emotionally. She tells that the credit for this goes completely to her director Mohit Suri.

Vidya also opened up about the criticism she has received in the past for her weight. She tells that she had a lot of body image issues in the past but has emerged stronger now. Film Hamari Adhuri Kahani, produced by Mahesh and Vikram Bhatt releases on June 12, 2015
