Aamna Sharif Wallpaper Pics

The very pretty and lovable, Aamna Sharif who made her acting debut with the extremely popular television show Kahiin Toh Hoga, produced by Balaji Telefilms Limited, has finally made a ‘somewhat’ mark in the world of Bollywood movies too. Although, still a long way for her to go, she definitely has it in her for making it as a Desi Bollywood actress. But what is she doing, going around with Aftab Shivdasani? Dudette!!

She should have stuck with Rajeev Khandelwal. Look where he is going today. But guess, it must be Rajeev’s fault that she is no longer with him, for he must have played ‘Sach Ka Saamna’ with her which surely must have made her run far far away from Rajeev. Enjoy the pics!

Seven Things You Will Never Find In Any Shahrukh Khan Biography

Did you know that Shahrukh Khan ran a small restaurant for a brief time in Delhi before the acting bug bit him? Read on to find out some interesting tidbits about Bollywood super star actor, Shahrukh Khan which you will never find in any Shahrukh Khan Biography. Read on...

The time was so naive, so primitive. It seems like another era when television first hit the Indian shores. With television came another source of entertainment for the starved Indian audiences. Amongst the horde of shows was one show named Fauji which used to air during prime time. 13 episodes, 13 weeks. Period. But these 13 episodes were probably destined to change the course of Bollywood someday. No one knew it then, that the small time actor in Fauji would one day become such a big Bollywood star that a small incident involving him in America would become a topic for world politics.
This gawky, unconventional, almost ugly looking actor was Shahrukh Khan. The King of Bollywood, The Badshah, King Khan are just some of the nicknames given to him by his admirers and PR agent.
Shahrukh Khan's meteoric rise in Bollywood made every young boy from Patna to Bhatinda to Surat, believe that he can be the next Shahrukh Khan of Bollywood. Although Shahrukh Khan's Filmography is quite checkered, he has maintained a good percentage of hit films in his career.

Here are seven things you will never find in a Shahrukh Khan Biography.

1. He accompanied a friend to the audition of Fauji where Colonel, who made the show saw him and selected him for a role. The rest is history.
2. He endorses the Pepsi brand because he seems to really believe in them. He has a huge Pepsi dispenser fridge in his house with which he serves his guests.
3. For the 'Dard-e-Disco' song he did not eat anything before the shoot, neither did he drink any water for hours before the shoot, so that his six pack abs show prominently.
4. He mostly eats Tandoori chicken, morning, afternoon and night. He has stopped eating roti or rice for many years now. No carbs is his mantra for the body he has.
5. He gave his consent to Raju Hirani for Munnabhai MBBS and even worked on the script with him for about 6 months before refusing to do the film. What a mistake!
6. Has refused Lagaan, Munnabhai MBBS, Slumdog Millionaire, all of which became huge hits of Bollywood and Hollywood. Huge blunders by Shahrukh Khan.
7. His debut film was Dil Aashna Hai, directed by Hema Malini, but due to the delay in the release of the film, Deewana released first and was considered as his debut film.

Reasons Why Big Budget Bollywood Movies Flopped in 2009

This has been a checkered year for Bollywood as Desi movies are flopping like nine pins in a bowling alley. This year has generally been a jinxed year starting with the multiplex, producer rift which lasted for more than it was worth, the IPL cricket matches and then the dreaded Swine Flu virus which prevented people from going to the movies. No matter what the posters might say, do not believe it for one moment because the movies which are shouting out loud about their biggest openings ever and superhit status, are the ones which have lost huge amounts of money for the producers and distributors. Let's name a few, shall we?

Agyaat:

Ram Gopal Varma has done it again. It seems as if he is determined to break his Ramu Ki Aag record of the worst film ever made. Agyaat was always a jinxed product just like the protagonists of the film, Priyanka Kothari and Nitin Reddy. Ramu loves making such duds and then blame it on the ghosts who did not allow him to succeed. Right from the shooting in the jungles of Sri Lanka to the publicity stunt where Ramu had placed some real looking corpses on hoardings to attract attention, Agyaat has been surrounded by bad luck. This bad luck continued till the film released and then it died... rest in peace, Agyaat...
Beware: Ram Gopal Verma may try to make a sequel of Agyaat. (I'm sure he is trying to break the 'Aag' record)

Kambakht Ishq

This was probably the biggest Bollywood con in the history of Bollywood. "Biggest Opening Of The Last Century" and such posters are so funny when there is no one even venturing near this Desi dud of a movie. Kambakkht Ishq was the biggest let down of the year. But then did anyone expect otherwise? I don't think so. Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor also acted in Yash Raj Film's Tashan, remember?

Luck

A total copy of 12 Tzameti, 'Luck' became unlucky for everyone associated with the film.
Soham Shah had made Kaal for Karan Johar. Hmm, still people expected Luck to be a good film and a super hit? Agreed, there was Imran Khan in it but then Imran Khan has a long way to go before he can even reach close to his maamu, Aamir Khan's level of understanding of a script.
All said and done, Shruti Hassan is super hot.

8x10 Tasveer

Tasveer was nobody's fault except for Percept Picture Company's who produced this film. How can anyone in the right mind give a director like Nagesh Kukunoor more than 60 crores to make a film even if it had Akshay Kumar? Mind boggling. I'm sure Nagesh must have been wondering everyday where he can spend the money. Of course, the story, the concept and everything, all added to make this desi movie a 'Tasveer' to be hung on the wall with a garland around it forever.

Delhi 6
Everyone was waiting for this film. Everyone wanted this movie to be a hit. I think it was not a totally bad film, it was just bad. Abhishek Bachchan tried hard, poor boy but then everything else was too hotch potch. This desi hindi movie is a typical case of 'trying to do too many things in one film' syndrome. Rakyesh Mehra made this film as if he was never going to get another film to direct. I still remember one comment from a fellow audience who said after the film was over, 'I still think that Rishi Kapoor was the Bandar...' Some people laughed, some were nodding in agreement and some were plain sleepy and wanted to go home ASAP.

Billu minus the Barber:

Again, a film mired in controversies and delays. But it was kind of expected that this film will fall flat on its face. It did too. Even a Rajnikanth could not salvage the Tamil remake of the same movie. Shahrukh Khan couldn't possibly have done better than Rajnikanth in Chennai...no way. (Those people are fanatics)

Chandni Chowk to China

This was the first Hindi film to be shot on the Great Wall Of China and the first one to fall from it, too.
Akshay Kumar's fall started with Chandni Chowk To China and with Tasveer and Kambakkht Ishq, he has sank below the abyss of Bollywood success. Not that it will make a difference to him. One film with Priyadarshan and he will be back to charging his 60 crores or whatever amount he charges nowadays.
Deepika Padukone's double role and her kick boxing also couldn't salvage this super dud from Nikhil Advani. Nikhil is probably bitten by the Ramu bug. Even he is trying to outdo the failure of his last release, 'Salaam-E-Ishq'.

Some other smaller budget duds of Bollywood:

Life Partner:
Tusshar Kapoor and Fardeen Khan with an overweight Govinda? Naah!

Teree Sang
Satish Kaushik directing a sensitive topic with absolute newcomers? Gawd!

ShortKut-the Con is On
Arshad Warsi and Akshay Khanna in a copy of a couple of Hollywood films mixed and matched together to create a khichdi? Impossible!

Sankat City:
Pankaj Advani, who? Yeah, that's what happens to real film makers. The film had
a good plot, good direction, too but then no big names, no publicity... it was always going to be difficult for this small but good film. Get a star Pankaj.

Paying Guests
Hello? What was this? No comments, no stars, no ratings, no reviews... period.

See How Shahrukh Khan Took Revenge For His Insult In America

Now that's what I call creative revenge. After what happened with Bollywood's biggest superstar, Shahrukh Khan at the Newark airport in America, Shahrukh Khan has chosen to respond to his insult by America in a way which is unique only to Indians.

Shahrukh Khan is all set to produce a music video as a tribute to the American legend of pop, the late Michael Jackson, who died at the age of 50, under mysterious circumstances which caused a controversy in the death of MJ.
This video will be directed by Samar Khan and the song, composed by Vishal and Shekhar is called, 'We lived in his world'.
Apparently Shahrukh Khan cried for hours after he heard of the passing away of the great legend Michael Jackson and so did Vishal Dadlani who was a great fan of MJ.
Incidentally, Shahrukh Khan was even slated to attend one of Michael Jackson's shows in London. (Sigh)
What a loss!
(Still can't get over MJ's death)

This initiative is an exclusive Shahrukh Khan initiative and everyone associated with this video are all as excited as all of us waiting for the video to come out, which is on the 29th of August, the day Michael Jackson graced this earth with his presence. Yes, it's Michael Jackson's birthday on the 29th of August.
(He would have been 51......may God bless his soul...R.I.P. MJ)

Sung by Kay Kay, Shaan, Sunidhi Chauhan and Shreya Ghosal, the video is choreographed by Remo and directed by Samar Khan.
The video will have special messages from Shahrukh Khan, Hritik Roshan, Shahid Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Yuvraj Singh, Prabhudeva, Kangana Raut, Priyanka Chopra and many others.

Waiting eagerly for 'We lived in his world...'

Things People Missed Out In An Aishwarya Rai Biography

I still remember when my elder brother told me about this beautiful girl in his college. He said, 'Guys were reaching early to college just so that they can catch a glimpse of her'. 'Bah!', I used to scoff, 'What a myth'.


But secretly, one day, my friends and me reached the DG Ruparel College in Matunga (West), waiting for the 'myth' to unfold. The teenage hormones were running overtime at the mention of girls that time, you see. Then the moment arrived...we saw her...and we kept seeing her even when she was long past gone into her classroom. This hot, gorgeous and the most beautiful woman to walk on the planet earth was none other than Aishwarya Rai...
(Va Va Voooooom)
That moment and the moment many years later when I saw her in the Pepsi ad are etched and embossed in the memory forever. These are somethings which you will never find in any biography of Aishwarya Rai.
The first time I saw the Pepsi advertisement on TV, Aamir was playing naughty with Mahima Choudhary (then Rita Choudhary), when this beautiful babe walks in and says, 'Hi, I'm Sanju...' The same Ruparel college girl, oh my God!
She had arrived. Truly.
That moment was probably the last moment when my young teenage hormones went berserk. After that I
grew up, of course. Remembering that moment still gives me the heebie-jeebies. I remember we used to keep track of when that particular ad was aired and during which shows, so that we can catch it by pretending to be watching the show. (Sigh)

Here are some tidbits about everyone's favourite Bollywood Actress:

• Name : Aishwarya Krishnaraj Rai
• Nickname(s) : Ash, Gullu, Ice Maiden, Plastic Beauty, Queen Of Bollywood, Etc
• Date of Birth : 1 November 1973
• Age : 35 years
• Birth Place : Mangalore, Karnataka, India
• Height : 5' 7"
• Eye Color: Bluish Green (Sigh!)
• Skin: Fair, Blemish-less, Perfect (Sigh!)
  
• Education : Arya Vidya Mandir at Santacruz, Mumbai--Jai Hind College, Churchgate, Mumbai--D.G. Ruparel College, Matunga, Mumbai (Yaaaah!)
• Father : Krishnaraj Rai
• Mother : Vrinda Rai
• Brother : Aditya Rai
• Husband : Abhishek Bachchan
• Married on : April 20, 2007
• Debut Film : Iruvar (Tamil) in 1997
• Claim To Fame : Her roles in films 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam' (1999), Taal (1999), Devdas (2002), Guru (2008), Dhoom (2006)

Aishwarya Rai was always a star right from her school days when she did her first ad for Camlin pencils. She was nine years old then. Just imagine, today, she is the most sought after desi actress in Hollywood. One cannot imagine the number of offers she has refused and these offers were from Big names of Hollywood, no less.

Director Brett Ratner wanted to cast Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Rush Hour 3.
Will Smith has openly mentioned that he wants to do a film with Aishwarya Rai but she has been refusing him right from the time he made 'Hitch' to the current film he is making.
She has refused films like Mr & Mrs Smith, can you believe that? And then went on to act in some no-brainers like Pink Panther and Pink Panther2 where she had a blink-and-you-miss role.
But that's Aishwarya for you!

Anyway, there's a lot of trivia and professional details of the gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, to be listed in one post. So please click on the links below to know more about Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. (Incidentally, the Bachchan surname is regularly misspelled as 'Bachan', but get this once and for all, it's B.A.C.H.C.H.A.N.)

That reminds me about Aishwarya Rai's wedding to Bollywood star actor Abhishek Bachchan.
Her marriage to Abhishek Bachchan was a moment when many a heart was broken.
There were guys who wanted to commit suicide after that. Whew! Thankfully, I had grown out of that kind of fascination for Aishwarya Rai (Psst...I'm married now)

The wedding of the most beautiful woman on earth to the dashing Bachchan son, Bollywood actor, Abhishek Bachchan was a talking point for many days even though it was supposed to be a low profile wedding. Imagine what would've happened if it was celebrated in full glory?
But even then the wedding was hardly low profile considering the amount of money that was spent and also

the amount of publicity it received for so many days, even though the wedding lasted for only three days. (Only?)

Some Aishwarya Rai Wedding Trivia-

• About 15 kilos of henna was specially ordered from Sojat in Rajasthan for the henna ceremony before her wedding.
• The Bachchan wedding invitations were embossed with two entwined 'A's and delivered along with a box of some exotic expensive chocolate.
• Within the invitation was also a poem about new beginnings written by Amitabh Bachchan's father and renowned poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan. (Isn't it strange how Amitabh Bachchan's father has a 'Rai' in his name?)
• Many Bollywood actors, directors and other people close to the Bachchan family were not invited for the Aishwarya Rai- Abhishek Bachchan wedding which ruffled a few feathers for a while.

Well, here are some photos of the wedding between Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan. Aishwarya Rai Wedding Photos.

All Time Romantic Films Your Girlfriend Wants You To See: Romantic Films Reviewed

Ever wondered what women want? If you are a guy, of course you have...and if you are a girl...well, I don't know that...that's what the topic is about, isn't it?

What do women want?

What did God think of when he made women? But then it is hard to know God too, ain't it? So it is not entirely surprising that he put some of his own self in women. (Wow, girls are going to love me)

Well, fear not, guys...because now, we have help. Hollywood Movies. Yes, they have made a horde of romantic films for guys like us, which explain a lot about what a girl wants. Although, we guys will never know exactly what girls want, ever, but yet, there is some sort of comfortable believability in what these films have shown. So starting today, I shall write on one film at a time as and when my whim and fancy permit me to.

Here's the first in the list of The Romantic Movies Your Girlfriend Wishes You Had Seen-

Pretty Woman.

Hell, every girl wants to be rescued by men. Period. Girls will never admit this and men would do well if they never mention these sort of things to her too. Girls feel good when her man takes up for her or even does some weird manly thing just so that he could say good night to her. She sees a Richard Gere in every boyfriend that she loves. This film is special because it reminds me of the time when I first fell in love with a girl. (Sigh). I wanted to see this film with her but couldn't because she was not allowed to go anywhere near a boy when out of the house. Imagine! But that was a different era, too. So I saw the film alone. (Sigh)
After this I went to her house and stood outside her balcony trying to figure where the fire escape stairs were...which was when her father arrived and saw me and then...(I hate Indian Architecture- imangine, no fire escape stairs...shit)
Julia Roberts as the prostitute became what she is today with this film. The world and its cousin, now, had heard of Julia Roberts.
"No kissing", she says as it was getting a little too personal. duh! more personal than having sex itself? But there's your first lesson boys. Love is not between the legs, it's between the breasts.
I meant the heart, you perverts...
This film has everything a good romantic film should have. In fact it is more like our own Desi Bollywood Hindi Movies, full of masala- emotion, drama, comedy, et al.
The moment when Julia Roberts is humiliated by a boutique salesperson and thrown out of the shop is such a good example of what a man can do to win over a woman's heart- 'rescue' her and stand by her.
A must watch if you are an unromantic, stone-hearted, workaholic bastard. There's a chance you might still change.
For the girls, well, you should all start loving me for doing this.
The other films in the list.

Probably the best romantic film ever made in the history of cinema. In 1989, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry, while in 1999, it was ranked by the American Film Institute as the second greatest American film ever made (bested only by Citizen Kane). In 2006, the Writers Guild of America voted the screenplay of Casablanca the best of all time in its list of the 101 Greatest Screenplays.

After watching this film, every girl wanted a boyfriend who looked like the hero of this film, Noah Calhoun. So please be careful, guys because he is extremely good looking. He is sweet and a nice guy too. His and Allie’s romance is what The Notebook is all about.A must watch.

Considered one of the best romantic films, is a classic. Just watch the final scene and you will swoon for sure. This is the scene when Holly and Paul embrace in the rain as ‘Moon River’ plays in the background. Clearly one of the most romantic scenes of the century.

Cary Grant at his best. This film brought the Empire State Building on the map in those times. The lvely Deborrah Kerr is cast opposite Cary Grant. When Deborah Kerr’s secret is revealed, guys, you shall be crying too. So keep your hanky with you.

This film gives perfect examples of what to do and what not to do when it comes to relationships. Guys will love beautiful and witty heroine Cher just as much as girls envy her wardrobe and popularity

Funny, entertaining, almost accurate as far as women's feelings are concerned. They don't know shit about men and the smart ass men don't know shit about women. Period.

 Ten stories about people who are all loosely connected, learning how to cope with love and loss. Girls swoon over Hugh Grant and Colin Firth’s sensitive characters and know the guys will love the hilariously entertaining Bill Nighy, but what they really want is for their boyfriends to feel the love that is ‘all around’.

Girls love this movie because Bridget is a hysterical mess and still gets Mr. Darcy, and girls want their boyfriends to love the movie because they all want a Mr. Darcy. Message to all men: be like Mr. Darcy. These films are practically how-to guides for becoming the ideal man.

A guy torn between a walk-by college girl and a long time pregnant girlfriend. Fidelity is often the number one problem in relationships, and this film is the perfect example of loving what you’ve got. Although it has its fair share of drama, but it is handled very lightly. For all those who are afraid of a committment, watch this.

This film was cult when it had released first in the eighties. Patrick Swayze, who oozes sex appeal alongside Jennifer Grey dance their way to each other's hearts. Guys who can dance are just that much more attractive is what girls feel and they would want you to do exactly that. So if you have two left feet...scram...

Girls are always looking for a boy who is exactly like her dad, before she can take the plunge into matrimony. Steve Martin is hilarious as usual. His concern about his young daughter’s impending marriage is both funny and heart-warming, and their bond is one to be envied by fathers and daughters everywhere.
