Jacqueline to unfollow Alia Bhatt on social media!

Earlier, when Sidharth Malhotra and Jacqueline Fernandez started shooting for their first movie opposite each other, A Gentleman in Miami. They also shared a hot, passionate kiss in the film. It was noticeable to everybody that the two didn’t just enjoy warm vibes but something much more special. Sidharth and Jacqueline’s sizzling chemistry was so obvious to everyone that even host Karan Johar had to ask them on his talk-show Koffee With Karan in January this year, if they were seeing each other. Obviously, both calmly repudiated it saying that they were just close friends. Sid was dating Alia Bhatt at that time and everything was forgotten.

A source reveals, “But things came to light when Jacqueline quietly unfollowed Alia Bhatt on Instagram a few weeks ago. This was a result of a major fight which apparently took place between Alia and Sidharth due to his closeness to Jacqueline. Few know that Jackie has been a constant factor in the actor’s life ever since they started shooting for A Gentleman in Miami last year. At that time, during the shoot in Miami, Sid and Alia had just broken up, and Jacqueline and he hit off really well. Post shoot they would often go on long drives and cozy dinners. But then shooting got over and both returned to India. Soon Sid and Alia patched up but Jacqueline still remained a good friend of the actor. Whenever there was time the two would often catch up over a quiet chat or dinner, away from the prying eyes of the paparazzi. It was a friendship that both enjoyed – both are not from Bollywood and would have a lot to catch up on.”

The source further reveals that Alia had no clue about the growing intimacy between her boyfriend and Jacqueline who was always pleasant and warm to her whenever they bumped into each other. “Alia and Sidharth called it quits after a huge fight over Jacqueline a couple of months ago. But then as it is mostly in B-Town, where actresses air kiss each other in public, while waging a cold war in private, Alia wished Jacqueline on her birthday (August 11) last month on Twitter and Jackie thanked her too. But Alia and Sid have had zero Twitter interaction till his last release on August 25 and after that. The last tweet was when Alia sent him besotted smileys when the first trailer of A Gentleman released on July 10.”

It seems Sid and Jackie’s intimacy turned into something more special during the promotions of the movie in July when they were thrown into close proximity with each other. The source further adds, “Jackie appeared quite in love with Sid as one could see in the videos they would put up on social media. They also went together to A Gentleman director Raj Nidimoru’s birthday (August 5) where no paps were present and were spotted having dinner last week (September 2) where paps were there. On August 8 the actress was seen going over to the actor’s house for dinner. Of course the paps were present there too.”

Fascinatingly, whenever asked, both the stars have denied being in a relationship with each other. The source adds, “Usually the lead pair in a film is linked in a relationship to promote the film and Jackie and Sid’s crackling chemistry more than helps. But B-Town is talking about the fact that there’s something much more between them and it seems to have the blessings of Sidharth's Godfather Karan Johar too. Now that Sid is officially single maybe it’s time for this hot couple to come out into the open about their relationship too as more and more people in B-Town are talking about it.” 

I don't judge a man on how good he's in bed, reveals Bhumi Pednekar!

Bollywood star Bhumi Pednekar, who essays the female leading role in "Shubh Mangal Saavdhan" which deals with erectile dysfunction, tells the society unnecessarily places a lot of pride on and builds an ego around a man's privates, which have nothing to do with being a good human being.

Questioned about her take on how a man's masculinity is judged, the actress revealed, "Well, as a girl, I do not judge a man based on how good he is in bed because that performance has nothing to do with how good a human being he is. It is the society that has attached pride, ego, and stamina of a man on a genital organ... which is so stupid and pointless."

She further added, "From the beginning, a boy is told not to cry, not to be vulnerable... They are taught that 'mard ko dard nahi hota' (a man does not feel pain). So when they grow up, somewhere in the back of their mind, they start behaving as if their heart is built of stone.

"The genuine human compassion goes, away and ruthlessness gets nurtured. I think now we are living in a progressive society to be open enough to talk about any sexual problem, without being judgmental."

As per Bhumi, who is paired with Ayushmann Khurrana in "Shubh Mangal Saavdhan", the movie will start a dialogue among the people to get rid of the taboo around the topic of erectile dysfunction.

Clarifying how progressive the movie is, Bhumi rvealed, "We are not saying that love is enough for a happy marriage, sex is also an important part of it. But when one of your partners is suffering from any sex-related problem, both should be open to talking and resolving the issue without making it a taboo, without hesitation. And supporting each other is possible only if they are bonded over love."

The project will be produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and will be a village-based drama, where Akshay will be donning lungi for most of the time.

Speaking about the movie, a source told to the tabloid, "Akshay hasn’t done a South remake since Boss, so this will be a good change for his fans."

Farhad has directed Akshay before in Housefull 3 with Sajid. The source further told, "Akshay is very comfortable with Farhad’s brand of humour. As for Akshay and Sajid, this will be their ninth film together. They make a great team and are good friends, too. The original film had done good business, and looking at the combination that has come together for the remake, this seems like a safe bet."

The original movie had Tamannaah Bhatia as the female lead, we have to wait to see if she will be cast in the remake too.

Abhishek and Aishwarya to romance again for a cop drama?

It’s their love story and journey. Abhishek has liked the story and given his nod to the film though he is yet to sign the contract. Aishwarya Rai has been approached for the female lead and will be hearing a story narration soon. She has expressed interest in the story but as Aishwarya takes time on her scripts the film is on hold. The producers have been waiting to give her a story narration for almost two months. Shailesh’s first choice is Aishwarya as he thinks she will be wonderful in the film. Both the roles have equal weight and are performance-oriented.”

The source adds that the long wait made Shailesh and his team think that Aishwarya wasn’t interested. “They have to start shooting from December so the creative and production team wanted to approach another actress but Ash has been traveling too; just last week she finally gave them a date to hear their script.”

Are you planning to make a movie with Abhishek Bachchan? Shailesh R Singh reveals, “Yes I have approached Abhishek and he has shown interest in the film. We are discussing with Aishwarya’s team and will be giving her a narration soon. She has conveyed to us that she’s interested in meeting us and hearing the story. I am planning to give Aishwarya a narration soon. I would definitely love to make a film with Abhishek. I had wanted to work with Abhishek for a long time but we got a good story now. Abhishek and I are both excited about the story. He is a superb human being and a great actor. The subject is strong and befitting his persona. I would love to work with Aishwarya in this film too as she suits the role. We cast actors in films keeping in perspective whether the roles suit them or not. I like to cast the actor according to the character.”

If you end up sleeping with your colleagues, it becomes complicated, reveals Kangana Ranaut!

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is gutsy and bold; she is unapologetic and has a badass attitude. Kangana who has won National Awards for her acts in Tanu weds Manu Returns and Queen spoke about relationships in an interview with a publication. Her personal life has always been scrutinized. She has been linked to Aditya Panscholi, Adhyayan Suman and Hrithik Roshan.

About receiving uninvited attention from men Kangana told, “When I started out, yes, I used to get hit upon a lot. There was no end to how many men wanted to take me out, married, unmarried, older, younger…But it wasn’t any different when I was struggling as a model or when I was a student”

She further added that in the industry, relationships can get complicated if you are involved with your co-workers. “And when men face rejection they do get bitter about it and then the work environment becomes difficult. And if you end up sleeping with colleagues then it gets more complicated. The mating game is the same everywhere.” she revealed.

Kangana told that she had faced physical abuse in a personal relationship. When questioned if she had faced any untoward incident in the industry, Kangana revealed, “I did encounter unfortunate incidents where a certain person forced himself or subjected me to extreme physical abuse but it was not in the professional space. It was not like I was working on a film or that he was my co-star. So I don’t know if I can associate that with the film industry.

I’ve not yet met a happy married man in my life, says Kangana Ranaut!

Actress Kangana Ranaut has been very vocal about her life and her relationships. She has also been linked to some actors in Bollywood. Her alleged affair with Hrithik Roshan was also in the news lately. She spoke about extra-marital relationships in her interview to a publication.

When questioned why numerous strong and successful women fall for married men, Kangana revealed, “Well, you have to add ‘young’ to successful and strong. When you’re young, you tend to believe the sob story of a married man when he tells you ‘my wife beats me’. If a married man, who is persuading me, gets a minute alone with me, he will say, my wife is this evil bitch and I am this poor person’ and how the one who is sitting in front of him is his savior. Women have to stop falling for this bullshit, this crap. This is not the truth at all. Do you think I’ll buy that now? No way. I have not yet met a happy married man in my life. No matter what the age is. At some point, post 25 years of age, you don’t buy this. But when you’re between 15 and 25 the natural tendency of a young woman is to fall for someone who could be an ‘ideal husband’ forgetting that he’s already a husband.

Kangana also told that she is not looking for love, as an artiste needs to forever be in love. She believes being in love is the only way in which one can be creative.  She told, “Being in love is an addictive emotion; it’s a dizzy headed feeling”

Riya Sen was rumored to be seeing Ashmit Patel, her co-star from the movie Silsilay. She was also linked to cricketer S Sreesanth, but had denied her involvement with him.

Mother Moon Moon Sen was questioned the type of man her daughters should marry and she had told in joke, “Good looks matter the most to Riya.

Misogyny in India is disgusting, reveals Suchitra Krishnamoorthi!

Actress cum singer Suchitra Krishnamoorthi, who got abusive tweets for expressing irritation over the Muslim prayer call last month, feels disgusted over the misogyny and general disrespect towards women in India.

She also told no religion has the right to cause noise pollution or flout laws.

"The misogyny in our country and general disrespect towards women is disgusting and certainly cannot be ignored. It doesn't bother me at a personal level, but can you imagine what it does to younger and more vulnerable women? It's shameful," Suchitra said to a close source.

"No matter what a woman is trying to say or do in India, she is attacked sexually and that has to stop," added the mother of one daughter.

When she had tweeted about the "aggressive/ear shattering call of 'azaan'" and "imposed religiosity", she was slammed by some Twitter users. When it got too much, she lodged a police complaint.

"Yes, those accounts were suspended and I was put under police vigilance. Hats off to our Mumbai Police," told the artiste, 41.

Is she anxious about her safety?

"Not at all. I feel very safe and am hoping to take up the matter of the 'azaan' with authorities once again and have it resolved in an amicable way. 'Azaan' or 'bhajan'... No religion has the right to cause unnecessary noise pollution or flout laws," she told.

Prabhas reportedly receives three times Shraddha's fee for the film!

After discussing her price for weeks, Shraddha Kapoor has finally given the nod to director Sujeeth’s Saaho, co-starring Baahubali star Prabhas and Neil Nitin Mukesh. We have come to know now that the actress gave the go-ahead after getting her fee of Rs 9 crore! But that’s still INR 21 crore less than what Prabhas is getting. The actor is said to be getting paid a cool INR 30 crore.

A source tells, “It’s a big budget action extravanganza costing Rs. 150 corre. Originally Shraddha wanted 12 crore. Her reasoning was that as the film is being shot in three languages - Hindi, Tamil and Telugu – simultaneously, the shooting would be more taxing for her and she wouldn’t be able to shoot for other films then. She charges Rs. 4 crore (approx) per film for her Hindi films so she wanted the same per Tamil and Telugu film. After negotiating and bargaining for weeks as the producers were keen to have her opposite Shraddha and she suits the role, their final offer was Rs. 9 crore."

The source further added, "The deal got finalized last week. But the fact remains that Prabhas will take the 30 crores as remuneration and it is more than triple of what Shraddha is getting today! Saaho will be shot in Mumbai, Abu Dhabi and Romania and every character in the film has many shades but Prabhas himself will be seen in a never-seen-before avatar and will be seen doing lots of modern-day action and will be undergoing training. His role is totally different from Baahubali and post that he’s also raised his market price from Rs. 25 crore to 30 crore (approx) and deservingly so.”

The producers wanted to cast a Bollywood actress to add a pan-India appeal and now with Shraddha Kapoor on board, everything seems to be smooth sailing with Prabhas having got his co-star. Anushka Shetty and Disha Patani were also in contention as the leading ladies. Saaho has already gone on the floors and is expected to release next year. Prabhas and Shraddha will start shooting from end August. A massive set has been erected for the same in Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad.

Barring Akshay Kumar, all my co-actors and I have been items, reveals Sidharth Malhotra!

Sidharth Malhotra and Jacqueline Fernandez's sizzling chemistry both on and off screen has been the talk of the town. Conjectures around something's brewing between Sidharth and Jacqueline have been doing the rounds ever since their film A Gentleman went on-floors. In fact, rumours have been widespread that Sidharth's closeness to Jacqueline hasn't gone down well with his sweetheart Alia Bhatt.

Sidharth, in spite of being in the industry for almost five years, cannot take such rumours in his stride and is still learning to do so.

In an interview with a daily, when the actor was questioned about it, he told, "Is it something about me? Barring Akshay Kumar (Sidharth's co-star in 2015 movie Brothers) all my co-actors and I have been items."

Question Sid if it is the apparent chemistry between him and Jackie that is responsible for these rumours and he expresses, "It's sad that going out for meals and chilling together has such connotations in this universe. Apparently, comfort between co-stars is suggestive of something more than a good working rapport. People in show business aren't given the leeway to be normal."

He further adds, "I've been compelled to be okay with these rumours rather than be upset about them."

And in spite of the rumours, Sidharth and Jacqueline's pairing has been loved by the viewers.

When questioned about the reason behind this uncomplicated friendship with Jacqueline, Sidharth confesses, "You don't need an ice breaker with someone like Jacky, she's always positive. I don't remember her looking stressed, such energy is alluring. What worked for us was the fact that we gelled off camera. We bonded over our common interests. We used to keep talking about our love for horses and one morning, we just went horse riding at the race course."

A Gentleman is all set to release on August 25, 2017.

When SRK and I come together, it has to be a mammoth film, tells Karan Johar!

SRK and Karan Johar have been friends for more than two decades now. The bond has been thick since the time Karan cast SRK in his directorial debut Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and since then there was no looking back for the two.

Except for Student of the Year, KJo and Shah Rukh have worked together in four movies including KKHH, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna and My Name is Khan. But when SRK and Karan didn't collaborate during SOTY, people thought that there was a rift between the two. But all these rumours were put to rest when Khan agreed to do a cameo for KJo's last directorial outing Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.

When questioned about it lately in an interview, Karan Johar told, "Shah Rukh is amazing. The day when he did that one scene for me in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, he didn’t know anything about it. He came on the set, read the scene and did it. We have a chemistry as director and actor that is just ours. He looks at me and he knows what I need. He read the scene and he knew what I wanted and I knew what he was going to do. We had kept eight hours and we finished it in four."

KJo further disclosed, "We were both emotional, but we were pretending as if we are grown men. Aishwarya (Rai Bachchan) said, ‘You both have this connection’. I wrote the lines knowing that he was going to render them just the way it was shot and designed and I went to him and said, ‘I think only you can do this scene’. I needed his star power for that moment in the film and it just came together beautifully."

Quiz Karan if there is a possibility of him teaming up with SRK anytime soon and he tells, "I know that when we do come together, it will be seamless. He is one actor I know, if I go to him for a film, he won’t even ask for a narration and will still come more prepared than most actors. I know when we come together — which could happen anytime — it will always be special because he and I have an understanding that I can proudly say he has only with me."

He ends conversation, "Shah Rukh is somebody with whom I have had a great creative collaboration. We are a little like a dream team, so I feel like when we come together, it has to be a mammoth film and has to be bigger than anything else."
