Yo Yo Honey Singh, happy birthday!

Born on March 15, 1984, Yo Yo Honey Singh’s real name is Hridesh Singh who studied music at the Trinity School in the United Kingdom. Before making it big as a rapper, Honey Singh was a recording artist and then a bhangra producer. But things really changed for Singh in 2011 when his song Lak 28 kudi da in collaboration withDiljit Dosanjh reached No 1 in BBC Asian Download Charts. In the following year the rapper got noticed in Bollywood when his song Angreji beat from his album International Villager featured in Saif Ali Khan starrer Cocktail. However, he became a singing sensation overnight with his song Lungi dance featuring B-town superstar Shahrukh Khan and the very gorgeous Deepika Padukone. The song was a tribute to South superstar Rajinikanth which also made Honey Singh a superstar in the music industry. Apparently, HS is also the highest paid music artist ever in B-town. Now that’s a big accomplishment in a very short span of time, hai na? His recently released song Chaar bottle vodka with Sunny Leone has already became a rage amongst the masses. Next, Honey Singh will be crooning for Amitabh Bachchan and Ranbir Kapoor as well. The Yo Yo Honey Singh fever is certainly growing stronger and isn’t going to fade away any time soon for sure.

The Bigg Boss 7 love stories

The Bigg Boss 7 love stories are surviving and going strong even outside the glass-walled house

Abbas-Mustan finally get Big B on board

In a career spanning two decades, Abbas-Mustan, the filmmaking duo known for their brand of racy thrillers, have never worked with Amitabh Bachchan. But that's going to change with their next. Mirror has learnt that the directors have convinced Big B to feature in their upcoming thriller, which will have an ensemble cast. 

While speculations are rife about them taking the Race franchise forward, the brothers' next will be a dark murder mystery, with Bachchan in the lead.

A source close to the development said, "Mr. Bachchan had several script narrations with Abbas-Mustan. He has really liked the premise and is figuring out his schedule to accommodate this film." 

When contacted, Abbas confirmed the news saying, "It's true, we met Mr. Bachchan and he found the script fantastic. Along with him, there will be four more actors - two male and two female leads. We'll be casting them soon." 

My life isn't fodder for gossip columns: Sushant Singh Rajput

Ever since his Bollywood debut two years ago, much has been written about Sushant Singh Rajput's personal life, especially his live-in relationship with TV star Ankita Lokhande.

From unconfirmed reports about Ankita slapping him in public after a jealous fit, to buzz about a secret engagement in Indore and more reports about a fight and a ugly breakup, this love saga had started resembling a TV soap, more than a mushy rom-com.

When Mirror contacted Sushant Singh Rajput for the real version, he refuted all rumours of a split. "I will admit that I'm amused by these never-ending rumours and also very impressed by some of the innovative stories and attempts to make my personal life spicy," he said. So all is well? "I'm all sorted and very happy with Ankita."

It's a friendly duel.

When director Sanjay Chhel first set out to write a family comedy about two warring 'frenemies' he turned to the much loved duo Tom and Jerry for inspiration. Once the screenplay was ready, he took it to Paresh Rawal, an acquaintance from Chhel's theatre days. 

"Fortunately, Paresh bhai liked the character. After that I took the other diametrically different role to Rishi Kapoor, who was hooked when he learnt that Paresh bhai and he'd be co-stars. He directed Paresh bhai in Aa Ab Laut Chalen and was excited at the prospect of sharing screen space with him," reminisces the writer-director while talking about his yet-untitled project which stars Vir Das and debutante Payal Ghosh in the romantic lead. 

"They are both businessmen but are poles apart and share a similar love-hate relationship. While one is colourful, flamboyant and larger-than-life, the other is traditionally conservative," says Chhel, who describes the film as a comedy, like the kind Hrishikesh Mukherjee excelled in. 

This scene which shows Rishi trying to hose down Paresh was filmed in Surat in February. It was a wintery day, yet Paresh had no objections to getting a cold shower for the shot. 

"It's a pleasure to work with actors like him and Rishi Kapoor who give one-shot-takes. Their chemistry will be clear for all to see onscreen," says Chhel. —Mumbai Mirror Bureau

Naseeruddin Shah feels Bollywood has nothing to be proud of

Actor Naseeruddin Shah believes that the Bollywood film industry has not achieved anything to be proud of.
The 'Ishqiya' star says that there has always been a scarcity of a good story in Bollywood and the only reason these films are seen is because of Indian dhabas and similar communal viewing spaces all over the world, otherwise the industry has done nothing of note thus far.

The veteran actor also lashed out at Indian directors, saying that the easiest thing in the world is to fool the audience and this is a feat that Bollywood's film directors are pulling off splendidly.Out of all the Indian actors, there is merely a handful, including Dilip Kumar, who has done exceptional work in a few films, and Amitabh Bachchan , who has one or two good films in his body of work, that he considers to be superlative at their craft, he said.
Shad added that apart from his mentions, he does not feel that the Indian film industry has accomplished anything that is worth talking about.

Is Sunny Leone pregnant?

Indo-Canadian adult film star turned Bollywood actor wants to experience motherhood

Sunny Leone’s ‘sexy’ image precedes her individual, so much that recently the actor was banned from entering Indore for her film Ragini MMS 2 promotions. One of the most warm and down-to-earth actor however is unperturbed by all this hype and hoopla around her. In fact Sunny is busy nurturing her first baby already. Before you let your thoughts run helter skelter,  let’s get to the point Bollywood is her first baby that she wants to focus on at the moment.  The actor in a recent interview confessed, “I would love to have babies but I don’t know when. This is one moment which I can’t replace ever in my life. This is the best phase of my life and my focus is on Bollywood. If I have a baby, then ‘great’, but I can’t predict the future.”
Sunny, who is married to Daniel Weber, says the choice of working post motherhood depends on an individual. “I am married now and may be I will have kids and continue with my work even after that. We are in 2014. It’s an individual experience, individual decision (to work after having a baby),” she added.
Most actors build a career in filmdom before marriage, but Sunny says her life has been in reverse gear. “My life has gone backwards. I think I am an entertainer and it shouldn’t matter whether I am married or have kids or whatever. But I have to say I have a very supportive husband and family. He is not going to hold me back from doing a role. If the role is sexy, we work through it as a couple,” said the 32-year-old, who married Weber in 2011.
Sunny, whose tryst with the Indian entertainment industry started with the reality show Bigg Boss 5. It was during her stint on the show that she received her first Bollywood offer – the 2012 film Jism 2. She says making a place here has been tough. “It is difficult because the industry is new for me. It’s difficult because you don’t know what is right and what is wrong. Are they the right people? Or are they going to take advantage of you? All these questions are always there, but you have to believe that your decision is the right one,” Sunny said.
“I feel business and entertainment are similar no matter wherever you work,” said the actor, who

Why has Aamir Khan filed a police complaint

The actor filed the case in wake of a defamatory campaign against him following the first episode of Satyamev Jayate 2

Bollywood star Aamir Khan has registered a complaint with the Mumbai police in the wake of a defamatory campaign against him on social networking website Facebook. The “malicious messages are wrong and baseless”, he has said.
Aamir Saturday met Mumbai Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria and Joint commissioner (law and order) Sadanand Date. The officials have assured swift investigation and action. The Cyber Cell of the Crime Bureau will investigate the case, said an official statement.
Aamir made his TV debut with “Sataymev Jayate” (SMJ) in May 2012 and the show, dealing with sensitive social issues like female feticide, domestic violence and child abuse, received a warm welcome from the TV viewers after it went on air on Star Plus. Some of the episodes dealing with female feticide and malpractices in medical field recorded the highest ratings.
He launched the second season March 2 on STAR India channels with a sensitive issue of rape, and the second episode, beamed Sunday, talked about police force.
It has been alleged in the messages on social networking site (https://www.facebook.com/AwakIND/posts/10151964856603531?stream_ref=10) that that when at the end of the show, Aamir asks for donations for Humanity Trust, the money is used for masjid construction assistance and placement assistance for Muslim youth.
Aamir took to his Facebook page and clarified that he is associated with Humanity Trust, Hanspukur, West Bengal, not the other Humanity Trust.
“False and malicious messages are circulating through various electronic media. including WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter and other social media networks, alleging that donations are being sought in my television program ‘Satyamev Jayate’ Season 2, in relation to an entity by the name of Humanity Trust, which is claimed to be working in the field of Masjid Construction Assistance and placement assistance for Islamic youngsters. This is entirely false,” Aamir said in his March 7 post on https://www.facebook.com/aamirkhan.com.
“I would like to clarify that ‘Satyamev Jayate’, in Season 1 was associated with Humanity Trust, Hanspukur, West Bengal, a charitable hospital run by Ajoy Mistry and his mother Subhashini Mistry. Humanity Trust, Hanspukur, West Bengal, is doing excellent work in the field of health care and provides free medical facilities to the poor. More information can be found on their website www.humanityhospital.org and our websitehttp://www.satyamevjayate.in/every-life-is-precious/humanity-trust.aspx. ”
“Please note that Humanity Trust, Hanspukur, has nothing to do with Humanity Trust referred to in the malicious messages. I would like to clarify that all donations sought in SMJ are used and channelized for entirely deserving and secular causes, contrary to the content of the highly mischievous/malicious insinuations in the messages, being circulated by vested and unscrupulous interest.”
“These malicious messages are entirely false, wrong and baseless. I categorically deny that SMJ has anything to do with Humanity Trust as stated in the malicious messages or that we have called for donations in the name of the said entity. I urge the members of the public to disregard the said malicious message,” he wrote.
He also urged viewers to seek information on all NGOs featured on the show on websitewww.satyamevjayate.in.
