Kajol is perhaps the only star who dresses more for comfort than to look glamourous. At the recent ASMI hand-over to the Gitanjali Group, Kads came dressed casually in denims and a cool blue sleevless top. Her thick hair knotted high, thick frames perched on her nose, the only jewellery she had on was an armlet and gold hoops. Only Kajol could have gotten away with that – dressing casually and still managing to look chic!

Starlet Kim Sharma likes accepting challenges. When she was signed to play a fisherwoman in Tom, Dick and Harry, she had a feeling that director Deepak Tijori was unsure about her capability to do justice to the role.
But she worked hard on her body language and since she knows Marathi already, she overcame Tijori’s apprehensions.

For one reason or another, the film career of Esha Deol is not making the desired progress in spite of her PRO’s intensive campaign to keep her in the news. Surely, the lady believes in continuing her efforts.
|
| BIG B’s penchant for keeping his commitments notwithstanding, it seems that his decision to resume shooting was a little too hasty. Proof? He had to cancel at the last moment a shooting in Kolkata, citing health reasons. Obviously, he needed a lot more rest to recoup his health.

Mallika sherawat of Khwahish fame (a film in which she had smooched umpteen times) may not have yet made it, but she is in the news all right. Recently, at the launch of her new film Kis Kis Ki Kismat, she was congratulated, among others, by Jat hero Dharmendra.

If there are 2 persons in the film industry today who have every reason to grin from ear to ear, they are Sanjay Dutt and Urmila Matondkar: the former for his starrer Munnabhai MBBS having done very well at the box-office, and the latter for bagging Best Actress Award for her performance in Bhoot.

| It can be said almost without any fear of contradiction that Aishwarya Rai has closed the Salman Khan chapter in her life. While the future is always shrouded in mystery, as things stand today, she shares good vibes with Vivek Oberoi. The latter must indeed have taken the first steps towards winning her heart when he presented her with as many as 40 gifts on her last birthday. Good vibes must have got further fillip during their shooting for the film Kyon, Ho Gaya Na, a film which they have just completed in lead roles.

Former beauty queen Lara Dutta did an item song for Raj Kumar Santoshi’s Khakee which, according to her, left quite an impression. However, she would like to desist from doing more item songs. While on Lara, she claims to have done her own stunts in Vikram Bhatt’s Elaan. Really? She should not be so foolhardy and must recall that Dimple Kapadia had suffered a hairline fracture while shooting for a film and was bedridden for quite some time.

Sanovar Kabir’s career came to a dead stop with the flop of her first film, though she had entered Bollywood with Sawan Kumar’s film Mother.
Beaten Sanovar turned to the small screen, with the serial Karishma. When this serial could not bring any work for Karishma Kapoor herself, what could have been in store for Sanovar?
Seeing the craze for pop and remix, she even turned a singer in
T-Series’ Return of Kanta.
Succeeding at nothing, now Sanovar has started dancing in music videos and is doing item songs in films. Recently, producer-director Afzal Khan filmed a sexy song on Sanovar for his Ajay Devgan, Sanjay Dutt, Manisha Koirala starrer Mehbooba.

The craze for cine couples has always been there in Bollywood. It might have been Amitabh-Rekha or Dharmendra-Hema.
Today’s hottest pair is that of John and Bipasha. This couple’s only two films — Jism and Aitbaar — have been released so far.
