Rani Mukerji Loves To Work In A Film Like “No One Killed Jessica”
The bong beauty Rani Mukerji enjoys being a part of women-centric films and says she would like do a movie where a woman is projected as a strong person.
‘Whatever films I have been a part of so far, most of them have been women-centric films. I wish to do more such films where women are shown stronger because it is a fact that women are stronger,’ Rani, who gave hits like ‘Bunty Aur Babli’ and ‘Saathiya’, told reporters here Friday.
Her role in the upcoming film ‘No One Killed Jessica’ would be a reflection of her belief where she would be seen in the role of a television journalist.
The actress was in the capital to be a part of Plan India’s fund raising auction and support the organisation’s global gender equity and equality campaign - Because I Am A Girl. Plan India promotes child rights and works to improve the quality of life of vulnerable children in India.
Rani made her Bollywood debut with the woman-centric film ‘Raja Aayegi Baraat’. She was later seen in films like ‘Mehendi’, ‘Black’, ‘Laaga Chunari Mein Daag’, ‘Hum Tum’, ‘Yuva’ and ‘Veer Zaara’ among others.
Asked about not being seen on screen much these days, she said: ‘I want to be a part of good films and play good characters. I wouldn’t like to disappoint my fans. I have always tried that every new film I do is different from others.’
‘After ‘Dil Bole Hadippa’, I found the script of ‘No One Killed Jessica’ best, so I decided to take it up. We had completed our shooting in June, but they (the makers) also needed some time to complete the film,’ she said.
‘No One Killed Jessica’ is based on model Jessica Lall who was shot dead in 1999 by Manu Sharma in a nightclub. Produced by UTV Spotboy, the film also features Vidya Balan as Jessica’s elder sister Sabrina. It will hit the screens Jan 7 next year. Source

Shahrukh Khan Saves The Lensman
Attention… the fallen, the crestfallen, and alike, your saviour Shah Rukh Khan is at hand to help. Or so, discovered a lensman as Shah Rukh Khan managed to salvage his fall and prevented him from injury. On the personal front, SRK has managed to check himself from falling into the pit of controversy and has saved himself from a whole lot of heartache from the scribe tribe.
Word has it that the vulgar and giddy Rs.25 crore wedding, an alliance between two gutkha baron families, was minus star power! As per sources, the figures squealed were: Rs. one crore for Katrina Kaif, double the figure for Salman Khan’s star presence, while Shah Rukh Khan was to be lavished with double the figure doled out to Salman in order to perform at the wedding.
Ultimately it was a no show situation!
States a close source, “Perhaps, something transpired that led the families to tell these top actors not to perform at the wedding. Salman was en route to Mumbai airport when he did a U turn and Katrina who had reached Delhi booked a ticket back to Mumbai. SRK was also slated to perform for select guests, but he too did not show up. Perhaps, the gutkha barons ultimately did not want to shell out that kind of money? Or maybe, they felt that this vulgar display of wealth would attract the attention of the authorities.” Source

Salman Khan Saves Pooja’s Life By Donating His Bone Marrow
The veer of bollywood Salman Khan is one brave-heart hunk, for the actor has become the first bone marrow donor in the country. Known for his generosity and charitable work, the often misunderstood Khan has once again kept up his promise by donating his bone marrow for a little girl Pooja, who was in need of a bone marrow transplant.
The act just comes days after the actor had pledged to Marrow Donor Registry, India, to donate his bone marrow if a need may arise.
And Salman is not alone here. His brother Arbaaz Khan too joined him in the noble task. Confirming the news, Dr. Sunil Parekh who is on the board of MDRI said, “The people suffering from disease and I thank Salman Khan for coming forward and taking up our cause. Four years ago, Salman had read about Pooja, a little girl who was in need of bone marrow transplant. He got his entire football team to come and donate marrow. Unfortunately, they all backed out last minute, and only Salman and Arbaaz landed up donating and became the first donors”.
Talking about the little help they received from the government, Dr Parekh said, “We made a foolish mistake to depend on the government in 2004. We didn`t get the right help…”
Addressing the problems that make bone marrow donation a problem in India, Salman said, “We have only 5000 donors currently. It`s not merely the lack of awareness; it`s our attitude that`s also the problem. And this will make us responsible for patients` lives. Donate marrow and save a life. It`s just like a blood test and doesn`t take time. I know some people are scared of blood tests, too… but it`s time to become a little brave and make a big difference.” Source

Why Aishwarya Is Not Promoting Her Film, Guzaarish ?
The beautiful Aishwarya Rai was under considerable pressure to appear on TV reality shows to promote her films ‘Action Replayy’ and ‘Guzaarish’. The lady who did make an appearance on Akshay Kumar’s show, ‘Mater Chef India’ is very clear in her head that she will not use TV shows to promote her films and even otherwise.
Talking to a news daily, an insider revealed, “There was considerable pressure on Aishwarya to be on these reality shows for her two back-to-back releases. But she is very clear about her dos and don`ts. Being on reality is a complete no-no for her. She did make an exception for Akshay`s ‘Master Chef’. But no song and dance reality shows for Aishwarya. And no game shows. Two weeks ago she stayed away from ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ as part of the promotion for ‘Action Replayy’. This week Aishwarya refused to go on the popular music contest ‘Sa Re Ga Ma Pa’. Hrithik Roshan had to go alone.”
The muse of ace director Sanjay Leela Bhansali did make it to Dubai to promote her film with Hrithik Roshan but did not accompany him to the sets of ‘Sa Re Ga Ma Pa’. Defending her reservations, the filmmaker said, “I completely respect her decision because I know she is not doing it as a fashion statement. Aishwarya truly believes in whatever she does. So there`s never that doubt that she is just doing it throw her weight around. Her decisions are always well thought-out.”
Buzz has it that the Bachchan bahu has been approached to be a part of a big television show at a price that no other lady from Bollywood could ever imagine.
Now is it Aishwarya’s bond with the show that is stopping her from making an appearance on other TV shows or is it Salman Khan’s stern decision not to let the lady promote her film ‘Action Replayy’ on his show ‘Bigs Boss’ which eventually hurt her inflated ego is something to wonder about. Or is she acting too pricey? No matter what her decision has certainly made eye brows raise. Source

Shahrukh Khan’s Fans In Germany
People love Shah Rukh Khan in Germany. The superstar is in Berlin shooting for Don 2 and there’s a crowd outside his hotel every morning just to meet him. It’s the same scene when he returns at night from his shoot. SRK happily obliges fans with autographs and poses for photographs. Says an eyewitness, “He does this every day without fail. Fans queue outside the hotel even when it’s freezing or if it rains. SRK even sends out for coffee and pizzas for those waiting for hours.”
But it does get embarrassing when they refuse to accept payment for services rendered. Like the time he got a free cab ride in lieu of a pic and an autograph. Here’s what happened: After shooting, the Don 2 cast and crew indulge in soccer matches at a ground close to the hotel. One day, it went on till 4.30 am. SRK decided to go out for coffee. Instead of calling for the hotel car, they hailed a cab.
As soon as they stepped in, the driver recognised SRK. When they reached their destination, the cabbie refused to let him pay for the ride. Despite King Khan insisting, the driver in Berlin said he would accept only a picture with the actor as the fare because his daughter was a big fan. Shah Rukh posed with the driver and signed an autograph for his daughter before thanking him and leaving.
Producer Ritesh Sidhwani confirms, “Yes, Shah Rukh is pretty famous among the local people and yes, the taxi ride was a impromptu plan as we decided to step out pretty late and this taxi guy refused to accept money from us.” Source
