Siddhesh takes spotlight in

t was Siddhesh Pai's week in Zee TV's Dance Ke Superstar as the talented dancer stole the limelight of the show. Apart from Siddhesh, Ruturaj and Vaishnavi too created history by getting a hat trick and were awarded the performers of the day. An insider said, "Rajeev Surti was the celebrity judge. And Siddhesh Pai mesmerized the audience with his performance and the judges with his stunning performance where he donned the avtar of a lady and performed few item numbers." The source further informs, "This time the face off round was between Dharmesh and Siddhesh for which Siddhesh got ten on ten for his performance and Dharmesh missed the bus. Siddhesh was even awarded with the MJ band for his solo performance." When contacted Siddhesh Pai e was very happy to say, "I just can't believe that I got MJ band from Remo sir because I didn't expect it from him. And talking about Dharmesh's and my face off, I never really wanted to battle against Dharmesh in the Face-Off because, we both belong to Geeta Ke Gang. But it was a very nice experience to dance with Dharmesh on the same stage." 1300797012

ee TV's newest offering, Sanjog Se Bani Sangini produced by DJ's Creative Unit is certainly a 'can watch' show. There are lot many factors that are a plus in the show. First of all, the comeback of Iqbal Khan to television is refreshing, and we get to see the macho man as a possessive and egoistic lover Rudr, who wants to have his way in everything. Binny Sharma as the subtle and simple Gauri might not be the typical TV heroine that we have been seeing for years, but there is a grace in her that will prompt the audience to like her. A complete newcomer when it comes to acting, but full marks to Binny as she gets the right expressions on her face and fits perfectly into the skin of her character. Additi Gupta (who was earlier seen as a devoted lover and

wife in Kis Desh Main Hai Meraa Dil) gets to play an interesting role here, that of an egoistic and confused girl who just cannot understand the real meaning of love, and what the sacred institution of marriage means. The makers have hit a jackpot by casting the two very experienced ladies of television, Aruna Irani and Sudha Chandran, that too in contrasting ages!! While Rajrani (Aruna)

Jayshree T comes back

udra (Iqbal Khan) has lost his memory and has forgotten about his marriage to Gauri (Binny Sharma) in Zee TV's Sanjog Se Bani Sangini. But what he remembers is his love for Pihu (Additi Gupta). And the plot will thicken with Pihu's masi's entry in the show. The character will be essayed by yesteryear actress Jayshree T who was last seen in Zee TV's Dil Se Diya Vachan. She loves Pihu to the core and can do anything to put a

smile on her face. Jayshree's love for Pihu stems from the fact that the girl had spent her childhood with her masi. She takes her as her own daughter. Our source says, "Jayshree's character is an interesting one which in a way will also provide comic relief to the show. She is an attention seeker and is extremely conscious about her looks and physical appearance. Jayshree will also push Pihu to take full advantage of Rudra's memory loss by making him stay in her life forever."

'Just Dance' reality show with

HRITHIK

or dance lovers, an opportunity to match steps with Hrithik Roshan - that too, on a glitzy international platform - can only be a dream come true! And that's the promise Star Plus fulfils with its brand new dance extravaganza Just Dance. Dance comes to life with the grand talent show, as Super Star and dancer par excellence Hrithik Roshan poses this dance challenge at global auditions including India which started from February 27. Scouting for international dancing talent, the 'Just Dance' team is scouring cities in USA and UK, besides extensively covering the major metros and multiple cities across India. 'Just Dance' is a global platform for dancers, who are completely passionate about their art, have a taste for exceptional dancing styles and cannot imagine an existence without it. Dance is their identity, and their self-expression. For the first time ever, contestants will have a rare chance to match steps on an international stage with Hrithik Roshan, while Farah Khan and Vaibhavi Merchant will judge the show. Commenting on the show, Anupam Vasudev, EVP Marketing and Communication, Star India said, "Just Dance is not just a reality show - it's a magnificent dance extravaganza that will star the God of Dance himself, along with anyone who has the passion, the determination and above all, the talent and the zeal to compete with him."

India's Most Desirable with Simi

n this Celebrity chat show, Simi will interview India's most desirable and eligible men and women like Ranbir Kapoor, John Abraham, Deepika, Siddharth Mallaya and have them reveal their "ideal and desirable beau." Simi selects as a concept and show format is quintessentially different from Simi's previous and long running celebrity chat show "Rendezvous with Simi Garewal." This show will feature a young live audience. Simi interacts with the guest and the audience. There are fun games to engage the guest. The show is meant to include a younger aspirational audience, as it features the most eligible and desirable people in the country from different walks of life.

here has been a lull after the storm. Once at the centre of controversy that Sach Ka Saamna - a show where contestants have to speak the truth to win a reward -created two years ago, its host Rajeev Khandelwal has now settled into a life of happy matrimony with Manjiri Kamtikar. With the show's second season ready to go on air in the next couple of months on Star Plus, the actor recounts why the first edition left him more awed than shocked. What was so exciting about Sach Ka Saamna that you are ready to return as its host? Sach ka Saamna is a great concept. It is the most respectable show on Indian television. It isn't rehearsed or staged. You don't know the contestants. All you have is their life story and 21 questions. As a host, have you ever felt that you are intruding into the contestants' lives? It is not easy asking those questions, but then I tell myself that this question could set some-

skeptical of taking up the new season? Not at all. The people who created noise were all those who wanted publicity. From Mahatma Gandhi to parents and teachers, they have always taught us to speak the truth. When people were finally doing that on national television, we had a problem. I spoke against such hypocrisy. Is the second season going to be more sensational than the first one? I cannot reveal it right now because Star Plus has grand plans for the show. They have just come out with a teaser.

Seems like history is repeating itself and this comes after viewers saw the dramatic death of Sadhana in a bomb blast in Rajan Shahi's very popular show Bidaai. A source informs, "The show is getting ready for the sequence where Divya (Rishma Roshlani) has delivered a premature, but healthy baby girl after the leap of 5 months. Divya is happy about this but is still angry at Nivi. Nivedita (Neha Sargam) on the contrary is trying to clear the confusions between her and Divya."

She has no tantrums on her dressing style as it was noticed during Rakhi Sawant's Swayamvar." We too hear that she is now leaner than before and is also having healthy diet to look stunning on television. Ratan is getting more offers from all over India and from abroad, which is more than that of Rakhi Sawant and Rahul Mahajan. Ratan also received a few Rishtas from guys who are aged and also who are younger than her. Ratan Rajput, between her shoot, said, "Actually I am very excited for my Swayamvar. Butterflies are flying in my heart and I am having the same feeling as any other girl would feel before getting married. And talking about my physique, I don't think I have lost weight, in fact, I would say that if I get thinner then I won't be visible on screen. But I am trying my best to look good."

Seems like the guy is hooked up with work since then as he will be seen as the new host of Imagine's most awaited show, Swayamvar Season 3 - Ratan Ka Rishta. In a chat, the actor talks about how he feels taking up a show like Swayamwar wherein he debuts as a full-fledged host: What made you choose a show like Ratan Ka Rishta? As an actor I wanted to do something different and I felt that being a host I can be myself in a show. I believe that hosting takes a lot of effort and it is actually fun. How has been the experience in Ratan Ka Rishta till now? The experience has been wonderful and brilliant. Apart from the role as a host, you will also be seen as a friend of Ratan Rajput, what are the qualities you are looking for the guy who will marry her? Actually, Ratan has a final call in this and personally I believe that every girl looks for a guy who is well to do and independent.

GET ME A MAN!

he’s the first Bollywood star to cross the million followers mark on Twitter, but thereís more on Priyanka Chopra’s mind. The 28-year-old says, “I am ready to get married tomorrow, provided I find a nice guy!” Despite the link-ups with actor Shahid Kapoor, she maintains that she is single. At the same time, she says sheís surrounded by a lot of love. “The fact that I have more than a million followers on Twitter makes me feel loved,” she says, adding, “I have always been the queen... no, the princess of Bollywood.” PC, who was in entertainment hotspot Kingdom of Dreams in Gurgaon for a charity event, was to be weighed against silver but could not be scaled due to ëtechnicalí problems. Chopra also rubbishes reports suggesting that she said no to a stage show as she didn’t want to share space with Shahid Kapoor. “I get many offers for stage shows, and my doing it or not doing it depends on my dates. Not wanting to work with Shahid will be a stupid reason.” The actress will next be seen in films such as Don 2, Agneepath, Barfee and Kunal Kohli’s untitled film. “The shooting for Barfee, in which I play a mentally-challenged girl, has just begun. It’s my toughest role so far.”

ilmmaker Karan Johar, 38, is upset with filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, 48, for going public with his grouse over actor Sonam Kapoor's light-hearted response to one of Johar's questions on his chat show, Koffee With Karan, months after the episode was aired. "If he had issues, he could've spoken privately instead of lashing out in print (the report was published in a daily). What he did was uncalled for, given that I've gone on record on every platform to say he is one of our finest filmmakers," says KJo. On the show, Kapoor was asked what she would do if she woke up as Bhansali one fine day, to which she said, "Get colour in my life -apart from blue and black. "Bhansali felt Saawariya (2007), his `work of art', was childishly reduced to a `blue film' by Johar. "Both Karan and Sonam need to have more restraint, dignity and respect for fellow filmmakers," Bhansali said. Responding to his comment, Johar says, "Friends don't behave the way he did. Now he's no longer one. He's only a competing filmmaker."

Even this year, many of our Bollywood celebs went to attend the Cannes film festival and made sure that they left a mark in the minds of the audience with their presence. A look at some these Bollywood celebs who were in Cannes this year: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was at the Cannes film festival to promote her upcoming movie 'Heroine'. Aishwarya chose to wear an Elie Saab Couture gown for her first appearance on the

Sonam Kapoor was at Cannes as the brand ambassador for L'Oreal. She wore a long white satin gown. If she would have worn something more fitting, she would have looked much better. Along with the dress she wore red lipstick which was not at all matching. She accessorized the dress with a Judith Lieber clutch and green coloured earrings by Chopard. Sonam's dark circles were quite visible which proved that the make up was not at all enough. Mallika Sherawat was making her third appearance at the Cannes film festival to promote her latest film, 'Politics of Love'. The actress chose to don a simple and classy look by wearing a coral coloured dress. The colour looked really nice on her and there was great detailing done on her dress. She accessorised the dress with a Zagliani clutch.

RANBIR vs

RANVEER R

anbir Kapoor, who has the house to himself, threw a party for his friends from the industry a few days ago. His parents Neetu and Rishi Kapoor are travelling and RK Junior has been living it up big time. When there's a party in Bollywood, there's no fun unless there are some controversies or shenanigans. That's exactly what happened at Ranbir's place, says a source. Apparently Anushka Sharma, Shahid Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and a few others were dancing the night away; when a slightly tipsy Ranveer suggested to Ranbir that he should play the remixed version of "Dum Maaro Dum" for the umpteenth time. "What's more, Ranveer apparently started discussing Deepika at length telling Ranbir that Dippy was the hottest girl he had ever dated," says our source. "Ranveer with his carefree attitude even went a step ahead and added that the line in the "Dum Maro Dum" song, "Skirt Khichega Ki Nahi..." was intended at the young Kapoor boy. Naturally Ranbir wasn't one bit amused. And he made his displeasure evident by asking Ranveer to shut up. Even Anushka asked her "Band Baaja Baraat" co-star to shut his mouth."

Travel leader GAURA

Melbourne, Adelaide and now Sydney too!

aura Travel was incorporated in 2006 with its Head Office in Melbourne. It was founded by two young professionals with motto "Your best way Home". Today the company has 25 employees located in Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney and a Call Centre. It has its offices in prominent locations in these cities for being easily accessible to customers. Both Directors of Gaura Travel, Ashwini and Abhishek Sonthalia, graduated from RMIT University, Melbourne and studied Bachelors of Business Information Systems. Their passion for technology and business acumen has made Gaura Travel one of the most technological advanced travel agencies. They introduced the very first 1300 number concept by having a dedicated 1300 phone word called 1300 FLY INDIA (1300 359 463) which can be easily remembered and called from any landline in the whole of Australia for just a local charge. Gaura Travel is the only agency to use SMS technology to broadcast special fares to India. You may call on 1300 359 463 or visit Gaura Travel local office to register for this facility. The idea of Gaura Travel emerged when they found lack of quality service among agents servicing the Indian-subcontinent sector. Gaura Travel thus focuses more on quality service than being the cheapest on price. After marketing extensively in Melbourne for three years, in 2010 Gaura Travel opened a branch in Adelaide. After the success of Melbourne and Adelaide, Gaura Travel landed in Sydney in May 2011. Gaura Travel is now the only Sub-Continent specialist travel agent with offices in Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney and is very upbeat about the future of the travel industry.

alman Khan of late has earned the reputation of knowing what the masses want. Any film, dance or song that he does instantly earns the 'hit' tag. The actor is also known to take an active interest in production work as can be seen during the post-production of his next release Ready. Ask him about it, and he says, "It's important to understand what works and what doesn't. So I just give my suggestions in areas I kind of know about. But I am an actor more than anything else. For instance, I wanted the Dhinka chika song to be released closer to the release date of the film. It's like a brainteaser and works in the film's favour." Asked if it was a conscious effort on his part to bring the `hero' back on screen? "Yes," he says, "because I started missing them. I wanted to go to the theatres, look at the screen and say, "Yeh aa gaya humara hero". Salman Khan's character Prem in 'Ready' is a huge fan of Chulbul Pandey from 'Dabangg'. There is a scene where Salman Khan, just before getting into action, removes his sunglasses and tucks them behind his collar. This is evidently Prem's tribute to Chulbul Pandey. Like the entire nation, Prem, too, has seen Dabangg several times and tries to imitate his icon, Chulbul Pandey in the scene. Khan is leaving no stone unturned to see that the film hits the bull's-eye. He has spruced up the backdrop of the foot-tapping Character Dheela and Dhinka Chika songs.

Asked if it was a conscious effort on his part to bring the `hero' back on screen? "Yes," he says, "because I started missing them. I wanted to go to the theatres, look at the screen and say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Yeh aa gaya humara heroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

Lavishly shot in Colombo, this Anees Bazmee-directed caper sees Asin playing the female lead opposite Salman. The film also became a hot topic of discussion when top stars like Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt agreed to do cameos. Suddenly post-production work has a new meaning for Salman, a fact he does not deny. "I was involved in the marketing of my films even earlier, but now with the PR machinery of films in full force, things like re-shooting a song make for catchy headlines. But it's true

that now I am more involved on the editing table. Either out of respect for senior filmmakers, or some reason or the other, I could not sit on the edits of my earlier films. But there were things I would have liked to change about them. Like I was not happy with the climax of Tere Naam where the villain, Mahendra Varma, was let off too easily without getting the bashing that he deserved," he clarifies with an example. So now he's doing everything in his capacity to ensure that even the man who spends Rs. 10 on a ticket to watch Ready, should get his money's worth. Khan got his father, Salim Khan, to work on the film's script, and on his dialogue pattern to ensure a more gripping content. During the making of the film, Salman lent his ear to almost 40 tunes before he gave the go-ahead for Character dheela, and then there was the afterthought of paying a tribute to the iconic Shree 420, Mughal-E-Azam and Sholay posters, and hence the reshoot. He was also very much part of the film's edit. "I have been in the business for over two decades now, so why not put my experience to use?" he questions saying that Ready is like a newer version of his blockbuster Hum Aapke Hain Kaunâ&#x20AC;Ś!, but naughtier, because his character, Prem, is more like the straying husband of No Entry. Like his new obsession of being more involved with his films, another thing that Salman is sure of is that the so-called niche films with life-like characters and situations, are not for him. The actor is all for playing the typical hero who in the face of danger and adversity displays exemplary courage and heroism. "The people, and that includes me, go to the theatre to watch a real hero, and this genre was missing for a while. Now that they are liking this genre, I will continue playing these roles," he says, quick to add that he does not mind being typecast in such roles. Presently, Salman, who was always the face of charity, is also kicked about doing his bit for the film industry, especially the technicians and others who work behind the camera. Releasing the music of Ready with the technicians and spot-boys of Film City Studios and giving them gifts was his idea, and a step in that direction. "I have seen some of these technicians working here, since my HAHK days and they have always been in the background. So instead of inviting film celebs, who anyway don't have the time for such events, and answering media questions, I thought I should let the technicians be a part of the music release," he reasons. He has also decided, that in some way or the other, he will give back something to the industry that has given him so much. Like keeping aside a small percentage of his fee, (even that would come up to a lot if you consider his reported fee of Rs 17 crore) to those who need help. "I genuinely feel the need to help the underprivileged, be it these workers, or the ailing, not with just a smile but with financial aid."

lways Kabhi Kabhi is the story of four unique lives trying to compete with the pressures of growing up and the firsts we all experience in school... From crushes to classes, from bunking to breakups. A modern age Romeo named Sameer (Ali Fazal) has the theory of living life through shortcuts. He has eyes only for his Juliet, this dreamy eyed girl called Aishwarya Dhawan (Giselle Monteiro) who is a new admission in school. Aish leads a life, which is lived by her but designed by her mother Tariq is Sam's best friend and the geek who has the cheek to be cool but carries the burden of having to excel at everything. His sole ambition is to study and to try staying out of Nadini's way. Nandini (Zoa Morani) is the school brat who you love to hate and hate to love. Living life on her terms and breaking rules to make her own makes Nandini the most envied girl in school and no one agrees to that more than Tariq. It's the final year at St. Marks, where they study and where life has many lessons for these carefree souls. But to the questions which life throws at them, they have only one answer "Kabhi Kabhi Jo Dil Kahe, Always Wohi Karein"

Hyper-moralistic Kalakar

he hero and heroine have just started see ing each other, and the hero proposes marriage to her as it was "the right step". There is an aching lack of chemistry between the two, which makes this development all the more improbable. The hero Sahil is a kalakaar (artist), a profession that the film glorifies a tad too much. Consequently, it looks down upon moneyed professions and villainizes ambition. The fact that Sahil (Tusshar) left a successful architect job to freelance as a cartoonist is constantly lauded, which is absolutely fine. Then we have ditzy rich heiress (Amrita Rao) who falls for this simple cartoonist. He doesn't earn a taxable income yet; rides an old fiat. The girl's father (Ram Kapoor) who runs his own super-successful company is appalled at his daughter marrying a man with an unstable career. He dares the boy in a game of profit-and-loss. Simultaneously, the girl keeps saying `I love you Mr. Kalakaar.' The film's insistence that earning less but following one's heart is better than being an employee and earning big bucks is annoying. Why the moral high ground? And then, if one chooses to live a life with no stable income and no future goals, is it right for him/her to marry and 'settle down' when they are themselves unsettled? These pertinent questions are asked by the girl's father, but then he's the villain! The Kalakaar's kala rules, and all else fades. Fair enough.

Cops and corruption tale

ana Patekar as a cop once again is at the centre of action. Predictably, he's been given the same old smart-alecky dialogue that was his novelty once. But it's a novelty that has been milked dry. Patekar plays Crime Branch Officer Hanumant Singh. Wearing jeans and a cool white shirt on duty, the idea is to make the character look dynamic and energetic. Patekar is given a dialogue a second-and it rattles on the ears for its affected nature. Hanumant Singh is the vilest among the vile. Hobnobbing with Delhi politician Rajmani Singh (Zakir Hussain) and his criminals, Nana acts like their private hit-man. He has no qualms about piling the body count high, as he kills off anyone remotely harmful to Rajmani's interest. For this he is paid whole-

somely; a loot he shares with the rest of his core team. This ruthless murdering machine meets a new 'shagird'- honest cop Mohit (Mohit Ahlawat) who has been promoted to the crime branch. His new boss jokes that Mohit's conscience is a light-sleeper, as it keeps waking up now and then. This was with reference to Mohit questioning Hanumant's trigger-happy way of working. The admiration mixed with disapproval makes for an interesting equation between the two. Meanwhile, a dangerous Lashkare-Haq group kidnaps three prominent journalists (including one spoofing Vir Sanghvi). In total filmi tradition, one of the journalists turns out to be Mohit's girlfriend (Rimi Sen). So his professional agenda is now heightened by a personal one. The film hurtles towards the finale with a few unexpected twists and turns.

t's official. Bipasha Basu, 32, has successfully moved on from her relationship of nine years with actor John Abraham, and is enjoying the change. "I'm now single for the first time in 17 years," she admits. So it's over between John and you, just like thatâ&#x20AC;Ś Honestly there is nothing dramatic about my break-up with John. For nine years I was in a honest respectable relationship. But now it is over. Obviously it is not 'just like that.' There will be presumptions. I'm not here to discuss or clarify those. People take time to come to decisions. It takes time to heal. However, I can say that I have moved on with no baggage. I'm free and there is no negativity towards anyone. You are sounding giddy-headed! Yes I am. In fact for the first time in years I am feeling light-headed. I feel as if I'm a teenager again. Abhishek Bachchan, Bobby Deol and Neil Nitin Mukesh who were shooting with me in Russia tease me and say that they don't want a "teenager'' around. But that's the way I feel. Something has happened.

And you have been getting a lot of male attention? Funny you should ask this question. For nine years I led a protected existence. Men were intimidated about coming close to me. Now, it's crazy. There's so much confusion around me. I feel giddy headed and lightâ&#x20AC;Ś and yes, I'm getting attention. I'm enjoying meeting people without having any specific agenda. It's a nice feeling, can't describe it. What's your current focus area? Well it's not relationships. It is work. We are doing some kick ass work in "Players". Abbas Mustan, my mentors (they gave me "Ajnabee", "Race") are giving me some super songs and

fabulous action. Besides this, there's "Singularity" and so much other work being offered. For the moment work is my focus area. Will you work with John? Yes I will. We just did a commercial a short while ago. We look good together. But I have had enough of Abraham. I'd rather work with the Khans and Kapoors. Any particular Khan or Kapoor you're hinting at? Any Khan will do. I'd love to work with all of them. I can't afford to strike off any hero's name from my list. There are only eight saleable heroes. If I strike off even one name, I'm left with very little choice.

covered. Working while pregnant Whether you have a desk job or you're on your feet all day, there are a few things you can do to make your work day more comfortable. If your back is in pain, try using a small firm pillow or a lumber support while at your desk. Put your feet up whenever you get a chance. If possible, recline so they're at a level higher than your heart. Change your shoes half way through your shift - say, from sneakers to athletics sandals to give your feet a refreshing break. The Importance of fibre Many women experience digestive tract infections during pregnancy. These range from constipation to haemorrhoids.

rithik Roshan's upper torsois fabulous; his muscles broad and well built. That agile lean bod didn't come overnight for Bollywood's blue-eyed hero. "Commitment is Hrithik's key to fitness," says Satyajit Chaurasia, the fitness instructor who has been training Roshan for the last eight years. For a person like him who absolutely worships fitness, essaying the role of a paraplegic magician in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Guzaarish was a challenge. "He had to give up regular exercising for two months. Out of habit, he would still gym for 2 days a week but with lower intensity. To gain eight kilos in two months, he ate all sorts of junk food including one vadapav for every meal, pizza, samosas, sweets and chocolates," says Chaurasia.

Losing 8 kilos in 40 days Chaurasia says, "Since Roshan has been working out for almost 15 years, his muscle memory is fantastic. His metabolism is high, so with regular exercise and a strict diet he was able to lose 8 kilos in 40 days." "A constant regime of one hour cardio and another half an hour stretches and exercises for abs was followed every morning," says Chaurasia. "We did concentrated exercises for one or two body parts every day for one and half hour every evening." After the exercises he would do 500-1000 times skipping for ten minutes everyday.

"Roshan is always open to trying new techniques and style. He follows fitness trends worldwide and reads international magazines on the topic. Exploring new trends and inculcating them in his regime gives him a mental boost and excitement while training. In the gym, he is like a school kid. He maintains a daily journal of his exercise routine."

"He uses a Polar watch that can be tied on the wrist. The watch gives a calorie count and pulse rate. On the watch, he can look at his entire year's work out results."
