For a Punjabi girl with celluloid aspirations, born and brought up in Mumbai, Bollywood would seem like the best choice. But Kajal Aggarwal took a long and winding route to get here.

Shah Rukh Khan is in for a double whammy. That’s the buzz in the town ever since the first look of Don 2 hit the screens.

Contrary to news reports that Akshay Kumar is unhappy with the way costs have spiralled on the Shirish Kunder film Joker 3D, Akki insists that he is “ecstatic” about the way the film has shaped up. Almost 60 per cent complete, Akki says Joker is turning out to be truly a one-of-its-kind film.

Uff, what’s with these B’town gals and their rivalries?

The thawing of tensions between Aamir and Salman Khan since the last year or so has been among the top stories of Bollywood.

She’s considered to be Salman Khan’s favourite leading lady, and also Akshay Kumar’s. But ask Asin who her favourite leading man is, and the reply will probably be a prompt “Subhaan”.

Success breeds sequels, and this has been an unwritten law in Bollywood for as long as one can remember.

These are bittersweet times for Emraan Hashmi. While on one hand Murder 2 is turning out to be one of the best films in his career, in terms of opening, the actor is barely finding any time to celebrate. Incidentally, Emraan has been summoned by the makers of The Dirty Picture to report in Hyderabad for the film’s shooting schedule.

And now the response.

Saif Ali Khan would just have wait to propose to ladylove Kareena Kapoor. That’s because before him, it will be Imran Khan who would be doing that to Kareena on the weekend leading to the Valentine’s Day in 2012, which will see the release of their upcoming film Short Term Shaadi.
