Priyanka Chopra witnessed Ranbir-Katrina’s blossoming love

There was one person in the film industry, who knew all along that Ranbir and Katrina are love-birds. She was none other than Priyanka Chopra, who incidentally came across Katrina Kaif, when she was discreetly meeting Ranbir in the US. According to a news daily, Katrina Kaif had frequently flown to the US to meet Ranbir where he was shooting for Sajid Nadiadwala`s ‘Anjaana Anjaani’ with Priyanka Chopra.

During her visits to her beau, Katrina always made sure that she stayed away from the set of Ranbir’s film, and no-one spotted her there. She had an alibi that she was in UK with her family for the holidays but this was not the reality as she would frequently fly from UK to the US. However, Priyanka Chopra spoiled the plans by running into her and she had to be taken into confidence.

Although Katrina`s spokesperson refuted the news calling it ‘ridiculous’ and ‘sheer rubbish’ but it’s now more than confirmed that Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina are in love and it was one of the major reasons for the actor’s break-up with Deepika Padukone. It all began during the shoot of ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’, continued during ‘Raajneeti’ and is still growing strong.

Sources reveal that Katrina and Ranbir visit each other’s house often but they are not revealing their relationship. Well, we are waiting for the official announcement.

Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor to sizzle in a lovemaking scene

If Salman had blown his top over his lady Katrina Kaif’s growing proximity with Ranbir Kapoor during the shoot of ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghajab Kahani’ then wait till he hears this. Believe it or not, but industry is abuzz with reports that the taskmaster Anurag Basu, who is known for churning out steamy scenes in his films, is all set to shoot Katrina and Ranbir in a super-hot lovemaking sequence in his untitled venture.

Be it the steamy kisses in ‘Murder’ or the intimate scenes in ‘Metro’, Anurag Basu is known to stir passions of the audience with erotic shots in his films. Not to forget his latest ‘Kites’ that has stirred much controversy even before its release.

Confirming the news a source told a daily, “Anurag’s next untitled project starring Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif too will also have some steamy scenes.”

As for Kat’s no kissing deal, the actress might just give a waiver this time since she is quite keen to work with Basu. “Even though Kat has a no-kissing clause in her contract, there`s a chance that she might drop that one for this film," adds the source.

I couldn`t take my eyes off Katrina Kaif: Zarine Khan

Debutante Zarine Khan doesn`t mind being compared to her ‘Veer’ co-star Salman Khan`s girlfriend Katrina Kaif and says that the actress is so beautiful that even she couldn`t take her eyes off.
"Being compared to Katrina Kaif is a huge compliment for me because I feel she is very beautiful. When I am compared to her, I feel overwhelmed. I have met her a couple of times and she is so beautiful that even I couldn`t take my eyes off her," Zarine told reporters.

"Being compared to her is always a delight. Personally speaking, when I see myself in the mirror, I find no similarities."

Zarine, who is playing female lead with Salman in ‘Veer’, says that she wanted to be a doctor and that acting happened to her by chance.

"I was always a very brilliant student, but not a nerd type. I wanted to be a doctor. But I couldn`t continue my studies due to a financial crisis and the responsibility of my whole family fell on my shoulders. Acting happened by chance. Now I can be everything - a doctor, pilot, everything," said Zarine.

"I was a struggling model and was looking for some kind of work to take care of my family. I was doing very small print ads now and then for saris to earn money to run my house. One day I was home surfing the net when I got a call from Mukta Arts. They called me on the sets of `Yuvvraaj`. There I met Salman.

"Salman is a huge actor and I am one of his great fans. I started talking to him like his fans would do. I had no clue that he was planning to take me in his film (`Veer`). Finally, when I asked for his autograph, he said, `No sweetheart you will sign autograph for the world`. Later I got to know that he has selected me for this film," she added.

Though Salman chose Zarine, she had to pass an audition test.

"They had auditioned lots of girls because the female lead has two different looks in the movie - one is Indian and other Western. Whoever they auditioned looked good in either of the looks, not both. Some had language problem too. They tried me and I was lucky enough to fit into both the characters and they signed me," said Zarine.

‘Veer’ is directed by Anil Sharma and produced by Vijay Dalani and Sunil A Lulla. The makers kept Zarine`s name secret for a long time.

"Even I got strict instructions to keep it a secret from friends and family. I was allowed to give some clue to my parents," she said.

Asked why they were hiding her, she said: "I don`t know. I was too junior to question them why they are asking me to do so. I just did what they asked me to do."

Set in colonial India, the film encapsulates a period when Britons enslaved India with their divide and rule policy and kings and nawabs fell for it, except for the Pindaris who preferred death to dishonour and fought till their last breath. Salman plays one of the bravest and strongest Pindari soldiers.

"It`s a love story set in the backdrop of a war for independence. I play a Rajasthani princess," said Zarine.

Salman is known as an angry man, but Zarine got to know the caring and understanding side of his personality.

"I had heard that he is a very tough guy, he hardly speaks. But he spoke to me very nicely... may be because I met him first as a fan. In due course I realised whatever has been written about Salman is not true. He is so sweet. He has a heart of gold. He is a very genuine man.

"While shooting sometimes I couldn`t understand some parts of my role. I used to be scared that Salman would get angry. But he used to patiently explain how to go about it," said Zarine.

She has already bagged a few offers but she hasn`t signed any as she is waiting for the release of ‘Veer’ Jan 22

Katrina will not marry Salman!

“On the personal front, Katrina will not marry Salman and if she does, then it will not last long. They both are completely different people. Salman is a Number 9 (27th Dec.1965) ruled by Mars (No.9), No.8 (Saturn – Capricorn) and No.6 (Venus). They share Number 9 in common but nothing else. Nos.7 and 9 do not gel well with difference of opinion being the main negative aspect. They both are different people with no similar ideologies but can be friends for sure. In nutshell, there is no great compatibility between the two and Katrina should avoid taking Salman too seriously. Rather, Katrina should not even think of marriage till July 2011” informs Bhavikk, celebrity astro numerologist.

Oophs, what a heart-breaking prediction by Bhavikk Sangghvi. Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan might be really upset with his forecast. If Kat is predicted unfortunate on the personal front then in the professional front, she is said to be very lucky and her career will tend only towards upward direction.

“Katrina will be entering her 26th year ( 2 + 6 = 8 ) which indicates health issues, although it will not affect her to that extent because the year 2009 ( 2 + 0 + 0 + 9 = 11 = 1 + 1 = 2 ) which adds up to No.2 is one of her best numbers and would do some damage control. But she still needs to remain cautious over anxiety, hyper tension and blood pressure problems” predicts Bhavikk.

“On the professional front, her next release ‘Blue’ add up to No.7 (16). Kat herself is a No.7 and this film will make her position much stronger than what already is. Later in Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani the title of the film adds up to No.2 (56) which is her best number. Ditto for Ranbir Kapoor. The film will not only do well but will make Ranbir-Katrina a hot onscreen Jodi after the film’s release.

In Priyadarshan’s De Dana Dan where she is paired opposite Akshay Kumar , she may not have much to do and this film may not do any good to her but will not do any harm as well. Towards 2010 in ‘Rajniti’ where is rumored to have played the role of Sonia Gandhi, she will be getting mixed reviews for her performance but the film shall do well at the ticket window” adds Bhavikk.

Katrina has been suggested an Emerald and a Pearl set in silver for goodness by the astrologer.

When Shahrukh Khan has closed his door for cameo, Salman Khan has still kept the role open. He is doing a cameo in Rajkumar Santoshi’s much awaited flick ‘Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahini’ and what’s making the idea more interesting is that the film stars Salman’s beau Katrina Kaif in the female lead role opposite Ranbir Kapoor.

It is learnt that Salman will appear towards the end of the film. Confirming the news, Ramesh Taurani of Tips said, “Yes, Salman is indeed there in the film, but only as a cameo”.

The whole illness left me feeling tired and drained.

I was also having over 1500 mg worth of antibiotics so I could recover faster. When I went home to London for Christmas, I was listless and lethargic and could hardly move around."

We can say it’s a beginning of a new relationship.

Mugdha Godse who has performed stupendously well in Fashion has caught the sight of director Rohit Shetty and now the director wants her to replace Katrina Kaif whom he had zeroed earlier.

Whatever Mughda is happy to be part of Shetty’s hardcore entertainment. She has also signed Madhur Bhandarkar's Jail opposite Neil Nitin Mukhesh.

Speaking about Ajay Devgan’s home production, the lady quips, "I love singing and dancing around trees and have no contempt for hardcore commercial Hindi films. I'm happy to be playing one of the female leads in the film. Moreover, my part requires me to look glamorous as well as add to the plot”.

Mugdha remarked on replacing Katrina, "I have heard about this, but frankly I don't worry about such things. Clichéd as it may sound, replacements do happen in the industry. I don't know whether I'm replacing anybody or not but I'm glad about playing an interesting character."

A source on the project reveals, "Ajay is very close to Jha. Even though he doesn't endorse political parties or take a political stand, he will definitely do everything in his capacity to support Jha. Also Katrina, who has been drawing huge crowds to the locations where the film is being shot, will be roped in. People travel from long distances to come and see her. If she campaigns for Jha, it will definitely add to the glamour element."

Devgan feels Jha will an ideal leader for the constituency. A source adds, "Jha has done to help the flood victims in Bihar, and his Punarvaas campaign has been a huge success and Ajay has personally followed the project. So he wants to support him."

Katrina to gift Sallu a puppy

Salman Khan is in mourning these days as his dog Myson died recently due to severe heart attack. Due to his death not only Salman Khan but his other puppy Myjan who grew up with Myson is also suffering in pain. On looking at Salman's depressed mood, his ladylove Katrina Kaif has decided to gift him another Alsatian pup. Salman received the news of Myson’s death while shooting for Veer in Jaipur. His news of death came as a shock for Salman as he was very much attached to his pets.

Salman, who is currently shooting for his home production Veer in Jaipur, is concerned about his other pet and has been reportedly advised to bring up another pup to get Myjan out of his depression. "Myjan has gone into depression after the death of Myson. The two dogs grew up together and they were always together. Myjan was the bully and he always had a fight to pick with Myson. But after the death, he has completely gone silent. He is not even eating properly," says a source.

Dr Sangeeta Vengsarkar who treated Myson even suggested Salman to bring up another puppy to take out Myian from depression. She said, "When your pet dies, there's a huge void in your life. Same happens with a dog if he loses his partner. In all such cases, it's best to allow the pet sufficient time to grieve and introduce him to a new member of the family. That is the best remedy for both the guardian and the other pet”.

To make Sallu happy, Kat has decided to gift Salman a puppy.

Katrina reveals everything about Akshay

Serene beauty Katrina Kaif and stunt hero Akshay Kumar is a golden on-screen couple. After delivering number of hits, the gossip mongers began to frame stories about their false love saga. But Katrina who hardly speaks her personal life in public goes candid with Farhan Akhtar on the show Oye! It's Friday and reveals all about her relationship with Akshay Kumar. She admitted that Akki is a very good friend of her.

"People think that I and Akshay are good friends. Yes, it is easy working together when it comes to Akshay but then our friendship is not the kind that I could have with my childhood or college friends", said Katrina when asked about her friends.

She admitted that Akshay has been a great inspiration to her and she has learnt dedication from him, "I have learnt dedication towards work from my co-star Akshay Kumar. If you have good talent but take it for granted, then it fails for you. However, if you have less talent but work hard towards it then you get what you want. Someone like Akshay has a good combination of both talents which he hones further by working hard on it."

Speaking about maximum hits and minimum loses that she has in her credit, Kat said, "There should be one strong point at least when a film if offered to me. No, it isn’t like I am a lucky mascot or anything but I believe in praying and hoping. I believe and pray that if you genuinely ask something it is granted."

She further adds, "I don't have enough knowledge of films but I think that a film has to have some quality control at the least. If a director is new then at the least he should have a good and strong script. On the other hand, if a director is experienced that even a new actor with a good script can work."

Katrina cried on her birthday

Katrina Kaif had gone though spoilt birthday not only at the peak of her career due to Salman-Shahrukh's ugly spat but even had a blemish birthday experience when she stepped into the world of glitz and glamour. In the Farhan Akhtar's chat show, Oye! It's Friday, Kat revealed what she had gone through when she celebrated her first birthday on the set of Boom.

''We had just completed shooting for the film and it was my birthday. Since I was a rank newcomer, I didn't really have many friends or acquaintances. I was alone in the cabin and there was absolutely no one around. I would have cried most that day, I was feeling so lonely'', recollects Katrina.

She relates her panic to the zodiac sign that she carries, "Well, we are like that only. We can cry at any moment", says Katrina.

Crying is a part and parcel of Katrina's life, she quips, ''I cry when I am happy or sad. In fact I also cry when I have nothing to cry."

Though Kat is very charming and lively, the most surprising fact of her life is that she was never asked for a date, ''I don't know why but it is indeed a fact. In fact even my friends from college too never asked me out.''

Kareena in, Katrina out in Race 2

One of the 2008's biggest grosser of the year Abbas-Mustan's Race is again in news. Firstly for its sequel and most importantly for Kareena factor. Katrina who was part of the blockbuster Race is out of the Race sequel. She has been replaced by none other than her biggest rival Kareena Kapoor.

Ramesh Taurani from Tips says, "Yes, we are already working on the script of Race 2. We were thrilled with Race's success. Theatrically and overseas, it grossed Rs 120 crore and was one of the blockbusters of 2008; that's why we are planning a sequel to it. Abbas-Mustaan will direct the sequel while Saif and Anil will be retained. We are also going in for new casting with the sequel. Kareena will act in Race 2 opposite Saif. In Race, the story will be different while some of the characters will remain the same."

Saif remarked, "I am very excited to be part of the Race sequel. I have been offered many sequels but there are only certain films which merit a sequel Race is one of them. We aim to make Race 2 better than the original. It will be slicker, faster, sexier, more thrilling and upgraded in a much bigger way from Race."

Race 2 will be the third flick in which Saif will be paired opposite Kareena.

Katrina Will not act with Salman Khan

Katrina Kaif will leave the opportunity to act with Salman Khan. The film in question is Ajay Devgan next home production to be directed by Rohit Shetty, the man behind the comedies Golmaal, Sunday and Golmaal Returns. Katrina has cited dates problem for not accepting the offer. If Kat accepts the offer then she will get to act alongside beau Salman. But after the fallout of Yuvraaj and most importantly due to dates problem, she is bound to say no.

Her spokesperson clarifies, "it is unfortunate but Katrina will not be able to do the project, she's tied up with her other commitments and dates were a big hassle. Hence she will not be doing Rohit Shetty's film". Ajay will also share screen space with Salman in his untitled film. It is known that both developed a good relationship on the set of London Dreams and it was during this time that Ajay Devgan had expressed his wish to Salman Khan to cast Katrina in his next home production.

Salman and Ajay were last seen together in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. In that flick, they did not get much scope to share the same screen but came to know each other better and developed a good rapport during London Dreams.

Rubbish romour about katrina's wedding

A report in a Marathi paper that Katrina is married has the actress incredulous with disbelief. "It's complete rubbish and the paper is denying it. When I marry the world will know. Right now I've no such plans."

But she isn't denying that she's with Salman. In fact one of her abiding regrets is that she and Salman have not been able to form a saleable pair on screen. Katrina had hoped Yuvvraaj would work, so that she and Salman would be a saleable pair and filmmakers would sign her with Salman as eagerly as they do with Akshay Kumar and Ranbir Kapoor.

Apparently, Subhash Ghai kept writing the script as the film progressed. After a pause Katrina says, "I'd like to stick to a bound script from now on. The time has come for the entire film industry to get completely organized. A script helps both the director and the actor to connect with each other and with the plot. I'm not going to be shy about insisting on a script.

Tell her she had very little space in Yuvvraaj, and Katrina admits, "Yeah. That was something I grew gradually aware of. I didn't have that much to do. But that's okay."

Katrina's sister Isabel is not getting into Bollywood. Not right now. Says Katrina, "That was something which was blown out of all proportions. At the moment she's too young to take up an acting career. In fact my sister is off to drama school. Something I never got to do and I wish I had. Not being a trained actress bothers me and I am happy that my sister is taking that route."

However, not attending school doesn't make Katrina feel inadequate as an actress. "I think I had to undertake my own journey and do things my own way. I learnt on the job. I think I've acquired knowledge of the camera on-camera. So no regrets about not attending any acting school? If I had regrets about any aspect of my career I'd be the most ungrateful person on the planet. Look at the level of acceptance I've received in so little time. Some people don't get this kind of success after working all their lives."

Katrina is nonchalant about not being considered a lucky mascot any more after the failure of Yuvvraaj. "I think that's just people talking a lot of nonsense. Actors far more intelligent and talented than me have had to deal with ups and downs. Sooner or later I'd have had to deal with failure. No point in brooding about it. I've learnt my lessons from the Yuvvraaj experience."

Commenting on the constant speculation on their relationship Katrina says, "That's bound to happen. If you're a public figure and at the end of the day neither of the party is clarifying anything, there's bound to be a lot of speculation and unnecessary comment. But I'm not going to get provoked into giving explanations. Because once they start, they never end."

What about that damning picture of Katrina with her face covered as she entered her birthday party last year? "That wasn't when I entered the party. The picture was taken while we were leaving. I was tired....and yes, I was disappointed. I didn't want it to be turned into tamasha. It wasn't meant to be. I realize I can't be talked about only for my work. You can't have things exactly the way you want them to be. You can't always have fans and not get blown away by the breeze once in a while."

Miss India Worldwide pageant 2009

Miss India Worldwide pageant 2009 is going to be a combination of glitz, glamour and talent. More glamour will be added to the show by serene beauty Katrina Kaif and ravishing Kareena Kapoor and they will be joined by sultry Yana Gupta. They will set the stage on fire by their dynamic performance.

Before the finale, the 20 finalists will go through a 10 days question and answer session. Mehar Bhasin, who will look after the grooming of the contestants has been quoted as saying: "Training is not going to be a cakewalk for them. They will have to go through a tough and hectic regime of around 14 hours a day, which means they cannot take it easy."

Beauty expert Blossom and Samantha Kochhar will take care of the beauty and hair of the contestants while designer duo Rahul and Rohit Gandhi of the label Cue will design their outfits.
