Aamir Khan

Famous for his outstanding performances and one-movie-at- a-time attitude, Amir Hussain Khan, lovingly called AK, is undoubtedly one of the best actors in the hindi film industry.

Born on the 14th of march 1965, Aamir is the son of producer Tahir Hussain and

Zeenat Hussain. He has 2 brothers, Faizal and Hyder ali Khan and two sisters ,Nikhat and Farhad.

Not many know that Aamir has done quite a few films as child artists such as Yaadon Ki Baraat, and Madhosh. But it was not until Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (1988),directed by his cousin Mansoor khan, that actually got this actor huge success.
Though aamir had the priviledge of being born in a noted family, his struggle in bollywood was no less than a new comer. He worked hard on his acting abilities and gradually went up to be a superstar of the 1990’s.

With films like Dil, Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, Rangeela and Raja Hindustani, there was just no lookin back, for Aamir. Films of every kind kept falling in his lap which gave him a golden opportunity to prove his versatility.

kareena kapoor

Belonging to the legendary family of filmstars, Kareena is the forth generation of Kapoors to have made a splash into films. With veteran actors like Prithviraj Kapoor and Raj Kapoor as her forefathers, Kareena had to face high levels of expectations from the very beginning.

Lovingly called Bebo, she was born in Mumbai to famous acting couple Babita and Randhir Kapoor on 21st September, 1980. Her elder sister is the very well known actress Karisma Kapoor, who is now married. In her early childhood days, her parents splitted.
Kareena had always wanted to stay away from the glam and glitz of showbiz. She was inclined to pursue law but destiny had other plans for her. She got the priviledge of debuting opposite Abhishek Bachchan in J.P. Dutta’s “Refugee” in 2000. Though the film flopped, Kareena was noticed as Karisma’s younger sis.
Confidence never went loose with Kareena as she was now determined to prove that acting ran through her veins. She was focused that she didn’t want to begin with “masala movies” like her sister had. She wanted good scripts with her roles to be meaningful and substantial. Luckily for her, she got good offers and things finally fell in place.

Initially, many of her films like “Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai”, “Yaadein” and “Asoka” and did not stir the box office. But Kareena had emerged as a very talented and beautiful actress. Kareena wanted her image to be of a good heroine and not just a star. So she was more careful in choosing her films.

Hrithik Roshan

The Roshan family has been ruling the silver screen for quite some time, but perhaps no one has reached the heights of success as the green eyed boy Hrithik Roshan.

He is Bollywood’s Sylvester Stallone, Bratt Pitt and Michael Jackson rolled into one. He has two thumbs on his right hand grown together.

Hrithik made his debut as an actor in 2000, with the release of Kaho Na Pyar Hai. It has been referred to as one of the greatest debuts Bollywood has ever seen. Mass hysteria that followed the release of the film was called Hrithikmania and has been unprecedented. Hrithik received over 30000 marriage proposals from young girls all over the country on Valentines Day. Lots of young girls were reported fleeing their homes running to Mumbai to catch a glimpse of their heartthrob. The hysteria calmed down a bit when Hrithik was married to Sussain Khan on December 20, 2000 at Bangalore, India. The marriage broke many hearts.

Hrithik is also quite hard working and a perfectionist which comes across in his expressions and dance steps. He says he is not that great a dancer, but he practices his steps over and over again until he perfects them. There was a phase in his career where he went through a really bad patch and most of his films flopped badly, but, his hard work and perseverance kept the flame alive. Though his films didn’t do well, Hrithik himself seldom received a bad review on his performance. Films like ‘Fiza’, ‘Mission Kashmir’ and ‘Yaadein’ might not have been successful at the box office, but his acting talents were quite appreciated.

Emraan’s Bollywood links comes from his uncle Mahesh Bhatt and cousin Pooja Bhatt. he started his career with his uncle’s film Footpath which unfortunately shared the same fate as its name and didn’t do well at all at the box office. His claim to fame was Murder released in 2004 where he starred opposite to the Bollywood’s bomb shell Mallika Sherawat. The duo rocked the silver screen with their sizzling kiss scenes which remained the hot topic of discussion and the centre of many controversies for a long time.

‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ to have the local flavors of Sapin

Spain is bubbling with the cast and crew of Zoya Akhtar’s ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ who are there for the shoot of the first schedule of the film. Being shot in Spain, the movie will feature many of its local customs and traditions.

The ‘running of the bull’ ritual is very popular in Spain and Hrithik, Farhan and Abhay participated in it to shoot a scene for the film. Looking their handsome best in the traditional costume of red and white, the three actors ran along with a group of locals while being chased by running bulls and this scene is supposed to be one of the film’s major highlights.

Every year from July 7th-14th thousands pack into Pamplona to start Spain’s most famous bull-running fiesta to honour Navarre capital’s patron saint, San Fermin. Spain stages more than 3, 000 fiestas (festivals) each year but the seven days of bull running are the favorite in terms of spectacle and excitement.

Zoya also shot another popular custom - a tomato-throwing match where opponents douse each other in tomato pulp- with Katrina Kaif and the three male leads of the film.

Rani Mukherjee featuring Vintage Glamour for L’Officiel

Rani Mukerji features on the cover of L’Officiel Magazine’s India edition for the month of July 2010 in a strap less golden color gown. She represents vintage glamour in Dolce and Gabbana. The cover says ultimate watch issue but the watch she is wearing (the same one which she wore at peepli live music launch) seems out of place. The glove and fascinator are a great addition, but Rani’s make-up doesn’t seem to match up to the Vintage Glamour theme.

Just to put in, Rani has again changed the spelling of her surname, though I doubt it will help in any way her sinking career and the toll bell signaling retirement. I am not a big fan of Miss Mukherjee, but thought I could post this for all the fans of this Bong Beauty. Like it, pals?? Let us know…..
