John Abraham opposite Rachel Weisz in Deepa Mehta film

Deepa Mehta was all praise about John Abraham and his performance in ‘Water’, but we never really thought that she would be the one who would give him an international platform. Right now John is in her two ambitious international projects. One of which is with Amitab Bachchan and another film ‘Luna’ starring Rachel Weisz.

Rachel Weisz

Rachel Weisz is popular Hollywood actress with films like The Mummy, Constantine and Constant Gardner to her credit. She won the 2006 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for Constant Gardner. The film is scripted by two time Oscar winner David Ward.

John’s film ‘Exclusion’ with Amitab will be shot later this year. Deepa Mehta announced ‘Luna’ in Cannes. Although Rachel Weisz would be the main protagonist, playing the title character Luna, John will also have a full-fledged role, says Deepa Mehta.

‘Luna’ is based on a real life story of an American activist and environmentalist Julia Butterfly Hill, who protested against the felling of trees in the Red Wood forests in the US by climbing a 180-foot Redwood tree. The lady climbed down only 738 days later- from 1997 to 1999. The tree was named Luna. The protest had a huge impact and a resolution was formed in 1999 to protect all trees in the 3-acre buffer zone of the Redwood forest.

John is also playing an environmentalist in ‘Luna’, but his cultural origin is not specified He is neither an Indian, nor an American in the film. This makes him Bollywood’s first actor to do a Hollywood film without playing an NRI or some snake charmer.

John was not only her choice says Deepa, “The true-life inspiration for the film, Julia Hill, just loved John. Her approval was very important. She thought he looked like Antonio Banderas!”

Deepika Padukone

Bollywood Gossip - First, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and now his teammate Yuvraj Singh. Budding actress Deepika Padukone is quite fed up and says reports about her engagement with Yuvraj Singh are not true at all.

'Please...this is the strangest thing I have heard, so far,' said a visibly disturbed Deepika.

The actress was Thursday evening declared the new brand ambassador of Swiss watch brand Tissot.

Asked how endorsements work for actors, she said: 'It works both ways. I mean celebrities connect the brand to the audience and the label connects them to the viewers, making them more popular.'

Deepika, who is the daughter of former world badminton champion Prakash Padukone, said sports works to de-stress her: 'I am very closely associated with sports. I have played games like badminton, basketball, tennis, throwball and baseball.'

'My favourite sport is swimming however, any type of sport de-stresses me. It takes my mind off work and makes me feel relaxed,' Padukone told IANS.

The newcomer struck fame with her debut film Om Shanti Om opposite Shah Rukh Khan.

However, she denies being bogged down by any kind of pressure of meeting expectations while picking up projects or in her upcoming movies.

'No there is no such pressure on me! Dad taught me to enjoy my work and till the time I do so I will face the camera merrily.

'I always wanted to do an action flick and I am luckily doing Made In China. Nikhil Advani is directing the film and I will share screen space with Akshay Kumar.'

Apart from Deepika, viewers will soon see Priyanka Chopra doing heavy-duty action in Love Story 2050 and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan swinging the sword in Jodhaa-Akbar.

Commenting on the trend of more heroines taking up action roles she said: 'This itself shows that with the evolution of the Hindi film industry women are getting to do more in films.'

Deepika also has Siddharth Anand's next in her kitty where she is paired opposite Ranbir Kapoor.

Amrita Don't Like Kissing Ranbir Kapoor

Amrita
Sometime back, Amrita Rao was being considered for a pivotal role in Yashraj’s new film, to be directed by Siddharth Raj Anand that starred Ranbir Kapoor in the lead. But things didn't seem to materialise between the petite actress and the director. The reason, as cited in the media, was Amrita’s refusal to indulge in a passionate kiss with Ranbir [on screen, of course]. As a result, Amrita decided to make an exit from the film.

Amrita had been maintaining a silence about the entire episode, but she decided to clear the air once in for all. “I opted out because I had reservations about certain things. Kissing was never an issue. I really don’t understand how this issue [kiss] cropped up in the first place, when the fact is that the issue was something else altogether,” Amrita divulges.

So how did the Chopras take to Amrita’s refusal? “Adi [Aditya Chopra] understood my point of view. He wasn’t upset, nor did he throw a fit. He assured me that we’d work again, in the future,”
While on Amrita, although she didn’t have a Hindi release in 2007 [except for the Telugu blockbuster Athidi], Amrita will have four releases in 2008, starting with E. Niwas’ My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves [opp. new-find Nikhil], Shyam Benegal’s film [opp. Shreyas Talpade], Neeraj Vora’s Shortcut [opp. Akshaye Khanna and Arshad Warsi] and Victory [opp. Harman Baweja]

Pakistani bride for John Abraham

John Abraham Begum Nawazish Ali
Pakistan’s famous cross-dressing TV host Begum Nawazish Ali has offered to look for a suitable Pakistani bride for Bollywood actor John Abraham , who has reportedly split with long-time girlfriend and actress Bipasha Basu .

“Why did John and Bipasha split is Begum the culprit?” ran the previews on Aaj TV, which airs the “Late Night Begum Nawazish Ali Show” every Saturday.

Begum Nawazish aka Ali Saleem flew to Mumbai to meet John whose Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal is the first film to be simultaneously released in India and Pakistan — has been a smash hit across the border.

There was no escape for John from the Begum’s flirtatious ways in the hour-long show.

Dressed in a heavily embellished mauve sari, the Begum kept referring to Bipasha as John’s ‘physiotherapist’, but the actor smiled through it all very sportingly.

When John who was asked about his plans to marry, said ‘not anytime soon’ the Begum offered to look for a suitable Pakistani girl.

Bipasha and John Sizzling in JismShe also jokingly offered to speak to John’s mother about herself. “Woh (Bipasha) toh abhi bachchi hai (Bipasha is a kid),” she guffawed.

“Physiotherapist to hamari baatein nahin sun rahi” (I hope the physiotherapist is not eavesdropping).

Speaking about ‘Goal’, John, who was christened Farhan by his mother who is of Iranian descent, said the film is about “unity”. The movie is based on the exploits of expatriates from India, Bangladesh and Pakistan who come together to form a football team in London.

“People are tired of fighting, of wars. This is a film, which unites Indians, Bangladeshis, Pakistanis. It shows the confluence of cultures.

“When we were shooting in Southall (in London) we actually got abused. So whatever is shown in the film about racism is actually true.”

Though he has never been to Pakistan, John said he plans to be there soon to promote the film. “It was a last minute decision to release the film in Pakistan. So I could not plan a trip there,” he disclosed.

The brawny actor, who has many Pakistani friends including Faisal Kapadia and Bilal Maqsood of the band Strings, said, “Indian and Pakistani people do not have a problem with each other. The problem is politics just like the politics in Bollywood which I do not understand.”

Prodded by the Begum, John said he did not believe in the many Bollywood camps. “Directors have favourite actors. But no camps for me. I have refused big banners who told me they would blot me out.”

When he was told of the many fans he had in Pakistan, John, who was last week voted the third sexiest Asian, said, “I don’t like the word fans. I prefer to say audience, brothers. They respect my work, so I should also treat them with respect.

“Till 2003, I had no money. I lived a very middle- class life. I have the money now. But in my head I am still very middle-class,” John said.

Bollywood Hot Babes Will Rock New Year Bash

mallika
Hold your breath guys. Some of the most desirable gals of Bollywood will strut their stuff on New Year’s Eve.

They are hot and ready to rock. As many as six Bollywood hotties will set the temperature soaring with their performances at several New Year bashes organized by Country Club India Ltd (CCIL) all across India.

Malaika Sherawat New year bashAll the usual suspects are there: Malaika Arora , Amrita Arora , Neha Dhupia , Udita Goswami , Rimi Sen and Mahima Chaudhary .

Also add to the list the southie Sada and singer Usha Uthup.

The largest chain of family clubs in India, CCIL promises scintillating entertainment for its members on the night of December 31. The celebrations are in keeping with the club’s new revamped image.

The bashes have been planned for eight cities: Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai, Pune, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Cochin. Which celeb will perform in which city will be decided by an SMS poll exclusively for the members of the club.

Arora SistersNeedless to say, the Arora sisters are expected to get maximum votes. Ms Dhupia, who has been intent on an image makeover recently, is also likely to let her hair hang down on Dec 31 and cut a sizzling performance. Rimi Sen and Udita Goswami are the two hotties who have never actually made it to the bandwagon of Bollywood sexbombs but are no less endowed in terms of sex appeal.

And if you don’t happen to be a member of CCIL, there is no reason to rue. You can still catch Bipasha Basu doing booty-shakin on New Year’s bash at Mumbai’s J W Marriott. This would be the first time Bips is performing on Dec 31 night, and it promises to be a bash worth attending. You only need to shell out some moolah.

What Akshay is Cooking

Akshay
Akshay Kumar may be away in Australia shooting for Vipul Shah"s Singh Is Kinng but he"s been busy off the sets.

Says a source close to Akshay, “Akki and some of the crew of Singh Is Kinng have been staying in self-contained luxury villas along the Gold Coast.

The villas are very expensive but since Akshay and the cast and crew are in Australia for a month and a half it"s more comfortable than staying in a hotel."

Khana khazana

Adds the source, “The kitchens are high-tech and are fully equipped. Akshay is very conscious about his diet and every evening, you"ll find him cooking salads, soups and sandwiches. The production unit gets the necessary groceries delivered to him."

The source adds, “Parathas are Akki"s favourite but now he"s stopped eating them. He can cook everything from pasta and fettucini to Thai dishes. Akki has always loved cooking. When Twinkle and Aarav join him, he cooks for them too. Akshay"s favourite is sushi, he and Twinkle often indulge themselves at Wasabi."

Akshay laughs when contacted, “Yes. I love cooking. It"s a great stress-buster but more than food now people are busy cooking up controversies about me. Earlier, people said that I edited my films.

Today, they say I am editing my promos. I am in Australia and the director of Welcome, Anees Bazmee, is shooting with me here. So maybe it"s my double who is editing promos back in Mumbai."

Double mazaa

Having gone through a successful year with three comedies, Namastey London, Heyy Babyy and Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Akshay is gearing up for his next release, Welcome.

“Earlier, everyone said I was synonymous with action. Now I"ve become synonymous with comedy. I"m happy that the three comedies I did this year had the box-office laughing. Welcome is a laugh-riot from the word go and I hope everyone enjoys it."

Is he bidding adieu to comedy? Says Akshay, “No. Comedy comes as naturally to me as action! Next year, I have a variety of films. I am getting back to action with Chandni Chowk To China and Tashan. But for now I want everyone to Welcome the New Year with a bang!" says Akshay.

The Rivals - Aamir Khan and Big B

Aamir Khan
Big B Aamir Khan war of words is heating up everyday. Aamir in a recent media interview panned director Sanjay Leela Bhansali for his handling of the film Black terming it ‘insensitive and manipulative.’ He also termed the performances of the actors ‘over the top’.

The criticism did not go down well with Amitabh Bachchan. In an interview with a tabloid he was asked what he thought about Aamir’s ‘over the top’ remark.

“I cannot comment whether my performance was towering or not, but Aamir may be right on the other maybe the performances did go ‘over the top’ of his head!” Amitabh responded.

In his response to Bachchan’s outburst, Aamir Khan posted a blog entry that was calm and matter of fact.

“I have the highest regard for Mr Bachchan and I am very big fan of his work. Probably one of the biggest. I believe that he along with Mr Dilip Kumar are among my two favourite actors of Indian Cimema.

I have no hesitation in saying that I don”t even feature on the same platform as an actor. He is also in my opinion THE biggest star that Indian Cinema has ever seen.”

Putting his comments on Black in perspective Aamir continues,

“My big exception towards Black is the fact that a child with severe difficulties is shown being ill treated instead of being treated with love, care and understanding. I simply cannot come to terms with that no matter what the writer and director say in defence.”
