The Next Bipasha Basu?

The Next Bipasha Basu? Mallika Sherawat Is Back – With A Horror Film

Mallika Sherawat was last seen in Kismet Love Paisa Dilli released three years ago and later, the sexy siren went into self-imposed exile. Wonder, if opportunities started drying up for Miss Sherawat, who created furore in Bollywood at the initial stages of her career. Now, all Mallika’s fans can rejoice as their favourite B-town actress has signed a horror thriller, which will be announced soon.

On her absence from the Bollywood terra-firma, the jalebi bai of B-town informs that she was busy with the American TV series, Hawaii Five-0. Hmmm, remember her liaison with the US President Barrack Obama?
“I have no idea why people are saying that I have left Bollywood. It is not true at all. Sometimes I believe it’s good for an actor to take a break and engage in some introspection. I was doing a lot of theatre in the US and I took up acting classes there too,” informs Mallika.
“I have signed a horror thriller,” says Sherawat adding, “The director is new but the director and the producer are respected names. We will be doing a photo shoot for that film and very soon will be making an announcement. Also, I will be shooting for more episodes ofHawaii Five-0. Right now, I have shot just one but there are a lot more to shoot.”

Censor Board's cuss words list spells trouble for Anushka Sharma's `NH10`?

The Censor Board's tough stand against use of expletives in movies has landed Anushka Sharma's `NH10`, her debut production, in trouble.

According to reports, `NH10`'s release date has been postponed by a week which was earlier supposed to release on March 6.

Owing to some explicit words and violent scenes, some parts from the film will be reportedly cut from the movie.

This will be the first movie that will go under the board's scanner after it released a list of prohibited words.

Apart from Anushka, `NH10` stars Neil Bhoopalam and Darshan Kumar.

If you were eager to watch the film, then you might have to wait longer.

Rs 200 crore riding on Salman Khan

Arms Act case verdict on March 3; Rs 200 crore riding on Salman Khan

With Rs 200 crore riding on Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, the deferment of the Arms Act case verdict till March 3 has provided a small window of relief to producers of his two films that are set to release this year.

The 49-year-old actor is currently in Gondal near Rajkot, Gujarat for Sooraj Barjatya's 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo'.

His other film 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' being directed by 'Ek Tha Tiger' helmer Kabir Khan has wrapped up shooting and is currently in post production stage for a mid-year release.

Bollywood trade analyst Komal Nahta said Salman has approximately Rs 150 crore riding on him for these two films alone, besides another Rs 50 crore for the projects that he has signed

"If you take Rs 75 crore each for these two films, it comes to a total of Rs 150 crore. And then if you add another Rs 50 crore for the projects that he has signed, it comes to Rs 200 crore. There is some amount of tension but the actor has the option to further appeal his case," Nahta told PTI.

The Arms Act case against Salman is an offshoot of the Blackbuck poaching incident 16 years ago near Jodhpur.

Salman was in the area to shoot for Barjatya's 'Hum Saath-Saath Hain' in 1998.

Shah Rukh Khan to romance Waluscha De Sousa in Fan!

Ever since Shah Rukh Khan has begun shooting for Maneesh Sharma’s Fan, there have been constant speculations on the leading actress of the film. Names like Parineeti Chopra, Ileana D’Cruz and Vaani Kapoor were doing the rounds. But guess what? It’s model Waluscha De Sousa for SRK! Yes!

A source close to the development said, “It’s not a regular flick that has quintessential roles for a hero and heroine. The casting process of the film has been unusual. They’ve picked Waluscha, who is not from the industry, as the leading lady. She was a prominent supermodel after participating in a beauty pageant in 2000, but she took a break after marrying fashion choreographer Marc Robinson. Now, they have separated,”

That’s not all. From what we hear, Waluscha has also begun shooting for the film. Adds the source, “Waluscha took special training in acting for this film. She’s already started shooting with Shah Rukh in South Mumbai and at an Andheri studio.” Well, now that gives out a BIG story, isn’t it?

Katrina Kaif reveals secrets behind her glowing skin

Don't take your skin for granted, says actress Katrina Kaif, who believes in the use of sunscreen, right intake of water and ensures that her makeup is removed well. The brand ambassador of the skincare range of L’Oreal Paris also says that women must take care of their body and skin according to their age.

"We shouldn't take our skin for granted, especially since we are often exposed to dirt, heat and pollution daily. We should never underestimate the need for a sunscreen to protect your skin from strong UV rays," the 31-year-old said.

"Through the day I drink lots of fluids, especially water to have my face feel fresh and hydrated. I always remove my makeup once I'm home for the day/night and use a moisturiser to not let my skin dry, even when I'm at home," she added.

L'Oreal Paris's Skin Perfect range is backed by 10 years of research at the global and Indian L'Oreal Research and Innovation Labs. The new range from the brand addresses the skincare needs specific to that age.

Talking about the need for a range that suits different age groups, she said: "Every decade in a woman's life comes with a changing set of priorities. It also comes with a changing set of skincare needs. L'Oreal Paris is addressing these needs of every Indian woman who might be prone to skin problems at some point in her life."

Katrina agrees that while women are asked to take care of their skin with home remedies and traditional beauty products in addition to maintaining healthy food habits, from a young age, she stresses on the need to use special products later in life.

"As we grow older, the demands of a hectic lifestyle take a toll on your body and your skin. This is why, it is essential to use products that replenish the vitality of your skin. Through its Skin Perfect range, L'Oreal Paris has personalised skincare for every age group, making it easy for Indian consumers to improve their skin tone leaving it with a healthy glow," she added.

The Skin Perfect collection comprises three ranges to address skincare issues at every age -- 20+, 30+ and 40+.

For the brand, Katrina has shot for a television commercial with Lisa Ray, who has been signed by L'Oreal Paris to endorse the new range. Katrina says Lisa is an absolute professional and full of life.
