SRK to promote Sprite
Pepsi which Shahrukh Khan has been endorsing from decades has dropped him due to his increasing age. He last starred in Youngistaan commercial with Deepika and Ranbir but gradually the Cola Company started feeling SRK mounting in his age and that he is too old for the ad which basically appeals to the young generation. They did not renew the contact with him. To their decision, Shahrukh did not comment anything and accepted their rejection with a smile. Now he has given the appropriate reply to the Cola Company as he has joined hand with a Coke brand, Sprite.

In the new Sprite ad, we will get to see the Kolkata Knight Riders captain Sourav Ganguly acting alongside King Khan. The ad will be aired during the IPL season. Now that Pepsi do not have any Khans, they are repenting.

Shahrukh Khan has taught them a good lesson and now they are crying on their decision.



Mani Ratnams condition stable
Noted director Mani Ratnam has been admitted to Apollo Hospital in Chennai on Tuesday night due to breathing problem and uneasiness in chest. Doctors after investigation have found nothing serious and given him OK signal. Way back in 2004, the director had suffered heart attack while shooting for Yuva. He also had a second attack during the shoot of 'Guru' on top of the Howrah Bridge in Kolkata in 2006.

However his condition is stable now and doctors said that he can resume work very shortly. "He had a few minutes of breathing difficulty and dizziness. There is no need for any panic as the director is healthy and likely to be discharged after routine check-up and a day's rest. He may resume work shortly," the source said.

The 52-year-old is currently busy with his film, Ravan starring Aishwarya, Abhishek and Tamil hero Surya. Manis film is always inspired by present happenings, he is best known for his terrorism-related subjects such as 'Dil Se', 'Roja' and 'Kannathil Muthamittal'.



Twinkle Khanna arrested, later released on bail
Twinkle Khanna was arrested on Wednesday by Vakola police but later released on bail of Rs 950 for committing an obscene act at the Lakme fashion week held few days back. She was accompanied by her lawyer, Bhairav Choudhary. To complete the legal formalities, she had to remain in the police station for few hours. To see the drama, a huge crowd gathered outside the police station. Twinkle said to the police that other legal formalities will be done by her husband Akshay Kumar when he will return from his outdoor shoot.

Assistant commissioner of police (Vakola division) Arvind Mahabdi said: It was a bailable offence and we released her on a bail of Rs 950 at the police station itself. We are now waiting for Akshay. Action taken against the couple following an obscene case registered by a social activist, Anil Nair.

Akshay was to be unbuttoned by a model but he surprised all when he turned towards his wife Twinkle who was sitting on the first row and asked her to do the unbuttoning act. The incident heated up the atmosphere and later Akki had to apologize.



Salman in Asins bedroom
After proposing Asin in front of the Eiffel tower on reel, Salman Khan is slowly and steadily making an entry into Asins heart. Rumor mill is churning that something serious is cooking between Salman Khan and his London Dreams co-star Asin. The duo is sharing a sizzling chemistry not only off-screen but in real also they are bonding quite well.

The Ghajini gal is so much impressed with Sallu that she has covered the walls of her bedroom with the photos and posters of the 43 year old star. However, days back it was also reported that Salman has gifted Asin a flat in Mumbai so that she can have her base in South Mumbai and smoothly carry on her work from Mumbai.

Now, this bit of news is sure to give a big shock to Katrina Kaif.




Preity breaks up with Ness, dating Vikram
Preity Zinta after splitting away from Ness Wadia is not sitting mum and howling over her break up. Infact, the bold lady has soon found solace in the arm of a new man by the name Vikram Chatwal who is a New York-based businessman and hotelier and onetime model.

Both Vikram and Preity are lonely souls. If Preity has broken up with Ness then Vikrams marriage with model Priya Sachdev is also on the verge of ending. The bonding between the two forlorn souls was best seen at Lakme Fashion Week, held at Mai Mumbai.

At the recently held Lakme Fashion Week when Vikram walked the ramp with Naomi Campbell, Preity from the audience seat was heard hauling and cheering thereby giving clear indication of some open secret affair. They not only hang out together on the show but at the party also they were seen hand in hand.

We can say that another relationship in the tinselville has gone kaput. Preity and Ness has been together for five long years.



Big B to share screen space with Gere
Superstar Amitabh Bachchan is going to share screen space with Hollywood actor Richard Gere in his upcoming film Teen Patti. According to a unit member, "The makers wanted an international name for the cameo. Though other names were also in consideration, they decided on the Pretty Woman actor who is well known to the Indian audience not only as a Hollywood star but also as an AIDS activist who frequently travels to India."

Earlier Pierce Brosnan was assigned to do the cameo but when he opted out, Gere was roped in. Years back Gere hit the headlines for casting packs of kisses on Shilpas cheeks during the AIDS awareness campaign. Gere has been a regular visitor to India and he has good connection with Parmeshwar Godrej in relation to AIDS awareness causes.

In Teen Patti Mr Bachchan is playing the role of a professor who tutors five of his brightest students to fulfill the mission of high-stake gambling. The star cast includes Madhavan and newcomers, Siddharth Kher, Dhruv Ganesh, Vaibhav Talwar and Shraddha Kapoor (daughter of Shakti Kapoor).

Perfectionist Aamir Khan had a hectic schedule for the last two years and hardly had he got any free time to spend with his two children. Leaving all his work back, he went for a holiday with his two kids but minus wife Kiran as she is busy with her directional debut Dhobi Ghaat.

Aamir will also remain disconnected from his fans in coming two months and wont devote time in blogging, he writes, Im going to go off the map for the next two months folks. I think I needed a break in any case, as I was kind of not really there last couple months, if you know what I mean. So I will see you now in June. Or end May. Unless I start turkeying in which case Ill drop a line. And once Im back rested from my holiday Ill be much more connected.

Aamir Khan had two back to back releases and hits last year, Taare Zameen Par and Ghajini. He was also busy in shaping up the career of his nephew, Imran Khan. Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na did a superb business at the box office.

Aamir Khan had some promising projects in hand and he will get involved in those projects after rejuvenating himself. His next release is Rajkumar Hiranis '3 Idiots' with Kareena Kapoor.

Im happy that my entire family and friends from Bollywood are here with me to do the sewa too, Shilpa said. Her mother added, We actually wanted to do some sewa, but looking at the rush here, we couldnt.

Bipasha goes against John
Bipasha Basu is not in the favor of beau John Abraham to cast opposite Vidya Balan and she is making much effort to convince John to walk out of Sanjay Leela Bhansalis much awaited flick Chenab Gandhi in which he will be paired opposite Vidya Balan.

In the past, John and Bipasha had a fight over his pairing opposite Vidya in Salaam-E-Ishq where the couple seemed to have shared a great on-screen chemistry. Soon after that rumors of their link-up spread far and wide and it is said that jealous Bips had a big tussle with John over the issue. Past record made Bips to convince John to get out of Sanjays venture.

A source says, Bipasha has been coaxing John to step out of the project, but he doesnt want to back out of a Sanjay Leela Bhansali venture. While the film was scheduled to start in April, it has now been postponed to December 2009 because of this uncertainty. This delay from John has been on purpose because he still hopes Bipasha would cool down. But it doesnt seem so, as the couple has again begun to have arguments over this issue."

Earlier Harman Baweja was to act in Chenab Gandhi but later he was replaced by John.



Katrina gets a new mark on her chest
Getting tattoos on body is not a new trend in Bollywood although Katrina was the last in a row. She inked two tattoos on her soft skin, one on her chest and another on her arm. The tattoos are quite prominent and also erasable. Actually, it was inked on her body for a purpose. It was for a photoshoot for a magazine that she posed on Sunday. She could have remove it but Kat liked it so much that she decided to keep it for some days and not in a mood to erase it so soon.

Katrina Kaif was spotted flaunting her new beauty spot at the wrap-up party of director Rajkumar Santoshis film Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani where the entire cast and crew was present. The actress who posed Barbie doll recently was seen in upbeat mood at the party with a new hairstyle. Held at producer Ramesh Tauranis home in Khar, Katrina was caught laughing and giggling with the guests, especially with her co-star Ranbir Kapoor.

Katrina is flying high these days and all set to create a new image with her non-glamorous role in Rajniti.



Priyanka Chopra fainted
Priyanka Chopra is a workaholic. With rising stardom, she has started devoting maximum time to work without bothering about her health. Moreover, the actress has lost so much weight that it has taken a toll on her health. Working rigorously has left Priyanka weak and unable to take the heavy work load, she collapsed on the set of her latest film, Ashutosh Gowarikers What's Your Raashee?

Tiredness and low blood pressure has left Priyanka frail and she collapsed. Immediately, doctor was called in and her mother was informed. On learning the incident, her mother rushed to the spot. The incident has shocked the unit members. After some medication, she recovered. Director Ashutosh Gowariker was ready to pack up for the day but professional Priyanka barred the director from doing so and she carried on with her work.

She went to the doctor for further treatment only after completing the shoot. Before she is fully recovered, she went ahead to perform at the Pantaloons Femina Miss India 2009 grand finale also.


Ash annoys Mani Ratnam
Mani Ratnam is a perfectionist. He studies every angle of his film minutely and never compromises his requirements with anything so how can he tolerate the disobedience of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. As Ash is playing Sita in Mani Ratnams Raavan, he is having a tough time in handling Ash who is doing things according to her own wish and not listening to him. The second part of the film requires Ash sans make-up but the most beautiful women of the world is adamant to put some make-up.

Mani instructed Ash to keep her make-up to the minimum as the scene speaks about her emotions of being separated from her husband. Mani knows that the natural look of Ash would go very well with the scene but who will make Ash understand the matter as she is not in the favor of facing the camera without any decoration. When Mani discovered that Ash has defiled him and she has put some basic make-up, he immediately asked her to wash it off but shockingly he failed to bend her.

Both Ash and Mani had a little difference on that particular issue and they stick to their own demands.



Malaika denies pregnancy report
The Lakme fashion week has witnessed sexy Malaika Arora Khan with bulging bump and the news of her pregnancy spread like a fire in the jungle. The news ran so strong that finally Malaika had to come forward to deny the news of her pregnancy. She said, "I think it was falsely reported, I dont know why. But Im not pregnant."

She justified her weight gain in the following way, "I eat fried foods, I eat sweets, I eat everything, but I know my limitations and I know when to stop and I know when I have to hit the gym. When I have to be a certain way, Its only mind over matter."

Malaika is happily married to actor Arbaaz Khan and her relationship is going strong. They are blessed with six years old son, Arhaan.



Hrithik AND Suzanne in distress
One of Bollywoods most powerful couples, Hrithik Roshan and Suzanne Khans splitting story may be just another rumor but the couple is totally heartbroken with the entire episode of their break-up story. Hrithik Roshan and Suzanne Khan are very upset with the made-up breaking story and finding really tough to get out of the whole splitting drama.

However, Suzanne rubbished the rumor by saying that their relationship is going strong and some jealous person may be trying to pull her husband down. She further said that Hrithik is an amazing human being and they share a very beautiful and strong relationship.

It was earlier reported that Suzanne walked out of Hrithiks house with her two sons due to Hrithiks alleged relationship with his Kites co-star, Barbara Mori.
