Anushka Sharma shares her secrets



She made a comeback this year with 'Simi Selects India's Most Desirable" on Star World which is being avidly watched and talked about! What has caught every one by surprise is its novelty factor. Everyone is discussing how diametrically different it is from Rendezvous with Simi Garewal and it boasts of single eligible desirable guests like Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Abhay Deol and Siddarth Mallaya. This week's guest is Anushka Sharma who debuted in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi opposite Shahrukh Khan. She mentioned that she was reading the book called "The Secret" when she auditioned for the film. Anushka says, "What happened is I used to listen to this thing when the movie starts there is this logo of Yashraj comes so I used to keep watching it again and again. It was like aaaa (sings) so when the film started and that logo played first and I was like wow... it actually happened. Shahrukh Shan introducing Anushka. She adds, "There was this one time when I was in Bombay and when this film happened and when I was driving back from Yashraj studios, I got the news Adi told me. I couldn't drive any more because I was crying so I stopped the car and pulled over and I called my mother and you know I told her that I got this film and you know what my mother told me. That there was this turtle that used to be there in my room I think its some Feng Shui thing you open the turtle and you put a wish in the turtle. And when it comes true you take it out. So she never told me about this.

Ind vs Eng: Ishant, Bhajji strike, England 3 down




A staunch opposer of the Hawk-eye technology, the BCCI could be persuaded to allow its usage in the Decision Review System by batting legend Sachin Tendulkar who has been convinced about its utility by the innovation's inventor. Hawk-Eye inventor Paul Hawkins met Tendulkar before the
start of India's ongoing Test series against England and claims to have removed all doubt from the batting maestro's mind about the system. "The problem has been that the BCCI have made decisions without knowing the facts.

It was clear Tendulkar had been told the Hawk-Eye system was manual, requiring an operator. He wasn't aware it is automatic and beyond corruption by humans," Hawkins was quoted as saying by 'The Daily Mail'. "Once we had set the record straight with him, he left saying he would tell the BCCI and recommend Hawk-Eye was used.

Himesh and I never broke up: Salman




Blame it on his bratty ways but there are a few things that only Salman Khan can pull off. One can imagine what might have run through the producers’ minds when the actor told them that he’d like his bodyguard to unveil the first look of his next film. Of course the fact that the film, titled Bodyguard, has Khan playing a minder makes it a completely legitimate marketing move.

So, on Friday afternoon, while Khan dressed down in a “Being Human” T-Shirt, his personal bodyguard Shera, who has been with him for 15 years, came in a suit and tie to unveil the first look. Kareena Kapoor, who plays the leading lady opposite Salman in the movie, was dressed in character — a white kurti with orange trimmings with colourful accessories — styled by Manish Malhotra. The other key crew members, producer Atul Agnihotri was present with wife Alvira and the director Siddique, attended too. There was some emotional talk too, as Shera vowed to be there for “Salman Bhai, as he is the most genuine human being” and Khan admitted to having been hugely inspired by Shera for his role in the movie. Kapoor, probably feeling left out in the bromance, just said that she was glad she had Khan for a bodyguard now.

http://movies.ndtv.com/images/showbiz/vidya-emraan.jpg
When actor Vidya Balan was signed on to play Silk Smitha’s role, she knew she had to go all out to play the South sex siren. While she has been working doubly hard on her body, her clothes and even her language, she is also working on shedding her inhibitions on screen. It was a known fact that Balan would have to wear revealing clothes and indulge in some amount of skin show but there is one recent addition — Emraan Hashmi’s lips.

The actress, drove a Royal Enfield on the streets of Mumbai, in Filmcity today, to promote her already released flick ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ and sources present, pointed out that Kat doesn’t have a valid license. In addition, Katrina was seen without a helmet, and she also took Hrithik for a ride on the bike. Surprisingly, even Hrithik didn’t wear a helmet, though according to the law, it’s mandatory for the pillion rider to wear a helmet.

“The celebrities set an example for others, if anyone has violated the rules like not wearing helmet or not possessing a driving license, such cases shall be probed and dealt as per law of land,” said a senior traffic official on the basis of anonymity.

Punjab Deputy CM unveils urban development packages



The announcements made by Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal at Jalandhar to woo the urban voters ahead of next year's state Assembly polls are "too little too late", Congress today said. "The people of Punjab cannot be fooled by the tempting promises of Sukhbir Singh Badal which have no scope of being executed," Congress spokesman and Ludhiana MP Manish Tewari said at a meeting of party workers here. Sukhbir Badal had made series of announcements in Jalandhar yesterday, which were related to urban development in the state. Among the packages were grant of municipal corporation status for big cities like Moga, Phagwara and Pathankot, extending non-construction period of buildings up to 15 years and amnesty in payment of arrears of house tax, water supply and sewerage charges. Tewari claimed that for the last four and a half years the Akali-BJP government did nothing "except for looting and robbing the state of all its resources." The Congress leader said people know the real face of this government and such announcements at the fag end are not going to help.
