’’விஜய் சாருக்கு தம்பியாக நடித்ததாலோ என்னவோ நான் விஜய்க்கு ரசிகன். வேட்டைக்காரன் முதல் நாள் முதல் ஷோ பார்த்தேன்.

ஃபெப்சி கலை விழாவிலும் கூட ’புலி உருமுது’ பாடலுக்கு தான் நடனம் ஆடினேன். விஜய் படம்னா எனக்கு ரொம்ப பிடிக்கும்னா.... என்றவர்.


திரையுலகில் எனக்கு ரொம்பவும் நெருக்கமானவர் சிம்பு. இருவரும் சேர்ந்தால் ஒரே ஜாலிதான். சினிமாவை பற்றிய நிறையவிஷயங்களை பகிர்ந்துகொள்வோம். உலக சினிமா பற்றி பேசுவோம். நிறைய டெக்னிகலான விஷயங்கள் பற்றியும் விவாதிப்போம்.

இந்த வரிசையில் அஜீத் சாரை நான் சொல்லாமல் இருக்கமுடியாது. சென்னை 28 படம் பார்த்தவுடன்
இயக்குனர் வெங்கட் பிரபுவிடம் என் நம்பர் வாங்கி என்னை தொடர்புகொண்டு என் நடிப்பை பாராட்டி பேசினார்.

என் ஒவ்வொரு படத்தையும் அஜீத் கவனித்து வருகிறார். என் வளர்ச்சியில் அவருக்கு ரொம்பவும் அக்கரையுண்டு. என் ஒவ்வொரு படத்துக்கும் தல’யிடம் இருந்து போன் வரும். அவருக்கு நான் என்றென்றும் நன்றி உள்ளவனாகவும் இருப்பேன். அதற்கேற்றார் போல் என் படங்களை தேர்வு செய்து வருகிறேன்’ என்றார்.

’அந்தப் பட்டப் பெயரை இயக்குனர் வெங்கட் பிரபு தேர்வு செய்துள்ளார், அல்டிமேட் ஸ்டாரிலிருந்து அல்டிமேட்’டை உருவி, இளைய தளபதியிலிருந்து தளபதி’யை உருவி இரண்டையும் சேர்த்து அல்டிமேட் தளபதி என்று முடிவுசெய்யப்பட்டுள்ளது என்று சொல்லி வாய்விட்டு சிரித்தார்..

ஆளாளுக்கு மயக்கம்: ஐஸ்வர்யாராய்க்கு வெட்கம்



இயக்குநர் ஷங்கரின் எஸ் பிக்சர்ஸ் ரெட்டச்சுழி என்ற படத்தை தயாரித்து வருகிறது. இந்த படத்தில் டைரக்டர்கள் கே.பாலச்சந்தர், பாரதிராஜா ஆகிய இருவரும் இணைந்து நடித்து இருக்கிறார்கள். படத்தின் பாடல்கள் வெளியீட்டு விழா, சென்னையில் நேற்று இரவு நடந்தது.


பாடல்களை நடிகை ஐஸ்வர்யாராய் வெளியிட, கவிஞர் வைரமுத்து பெற்றுக்கொண்டார்.


இவ்விழாவில் பேசிய ஐஸ்வர்யாராய், ‘’என் வாழ்க்கையில் இது ஒரு மறக்க முடியாத நாள். இந்த மேடையில் எல்லோரும் என்னை புகழ்ந்து பேசினார்கள். ஆனால் பாலச்சந்தர், பாரதிராஜா, ஷங்கர், வைரமுத்து போன்ற மேதைகள் அமர்ந்து இருக்கிற மேடையில் நானும் இருப்பதை என் வாழ்நாள் சாதனையாக கருதுகிறேன்.


தமிழ் சினிமாவில் நானும் ஒரு அங்கமாக இருப்பதை நினைக்கும்போது, பெருமையாக இருக்கிறது. தமிழ் மக்கள் என் மீது செலுத்துகிற அன்பு, எனக்கு உற்சாகம் அளிக்கிறது’’என்று தெரிவித்தார்.


விழாவில், கே.பாலச்சந்தர் பேசும் போது,


’’ஐஸ்வர்யாராய் அருகில் நான் அமர்ந்திருந்தது எனக்கு மகிழ்ச்சியாக இருந்தது. இந்த கிழவனுக்கு என்ன ஆசை என்று நினைக்கக்கூடாது. அழகை ஆராதிக்க வயசு தேவையில்லை. யார் வேண்டுமானாலும் ஆராதிக்கலாம். ஆனால் ஆராதிப்பதுடன் விட்டுவிட வேண்டும்.


பாரதிராஜாவுடன் நான் நடித்தது, ஒரு இனிய அனுபவம். இரண்டு இயக்குனர்கள் சேர்ந்து நடித்தால், மோதல் வரும். ஆனால், இந்த படத்தில் நடித்தபோது சந்தோஷமாக இருந்தது’’என்று தெரிவித்தார்.


பாரதிராஜா பேசும்போது,


’’ஒரு புலியையும், சிங்கத்தையும் வைத்து டைரக்டர் தாமிரா எப்படி வேலை வாங்கினார் என்று இங்கே பேசினார்கள். இந்த படத்தில் நானும், பாலச்சந்தரும் நடித்தபோது எங்களை மறந்து, ஆட்டுக்குட்டிகள் போல் இருந்தோம். பாலச்சந்தர் படித்தவர். நான் பாமரன். அவர் நேர்த்தியானவர். நான் காட்டுப்பூ மாதிரி.


சினிமாவில், என்னை முதன்முதலாக அங்கீகரித்த மனிதர், பாலச்சந்தர். அவருடன் இணைந்து நடித்தது, என் வாழ்நாள் சாதனை. நான் பிரச்சினைகளில் மாட்டிக்கொள்ளும்போதெல்லாம் எனக்கு கை கொடுத்த மனிதர், பாலச்சந்தர்’’என்று தெரிவித்தார்.


டைரக்டர் ஷங்கர் பேசும்போது, ’’இந்த படத்தை தயாரித்ததை பெருமையாக கருதுகிறேன். கே.பாலச்சந்தரும், பாரதிராஜாவும் எனக்கு கிடைத்த பாக்கியம். ஐஸ்வர்யாராய் அழகானவர் மட்டுமல்ல. சிறந்த அறிவாளி. கடுமையான உழைப்பாளி. `எந்திரன்' படப்பிடிப்புக்காக தென் ஆப்பிரிக்கா சென்றபோது, பயங்கர பூச்சிகள் கடித்து அவர் கையில் வடுக்கள் ஏற்பட்டன. வேறு ஒரு நடிகையாக இருந்தால், தொடர்ந்து நடித்திருக்க மாட்டார். ஆனால் ஐஸ்வர்யாராய், பாடல் காட்சி முழுவதும் படமாவதற்கு ஒத்துழைப்பு கொடுத்தார். அவருடைய உழைப்பே அவரை அழகி ஆக்கியிருக்கிறது’’என்றார்.


இயக்குநர் பார்த்திபன் ஐஸ்வர்யாராயை ரொம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ம்ப புகழ்ந்து தள்ளினார். தான் புகழ்ந்து தள்ளுவது எங்கே ஐஸ்ஸூக்கு புரியாமல் போய்விடுமோ என்று நினைத்து தான் பேசுவதற்கு முன் தனது பேச்சை ஆங்கிலத்தில் மொழி பெயர்த்து கொடுத்துவிட்டார்.


ஆளாளுக்கு மயக்கம் கொண்டதில் ஐஸ்வர்யாராய்க்கு வெட்கம்.

Shahrukh Khan




Shah Rukh Khan (Hindi: शाहरुख़ ख़ान, Urdu: شاہ رُخ خان; born 2 November 1965), sometimes credited as Shahrukh Khan, is an Indian actor and a prominent Bollywood figure, as well as a film producer and television host. Khan began his career appearing in several television serials in the late 1980s. He made his film debut in Deewana (1992). Since then, he has been part of numerous commercially successful films and has earned critical acclaim for many of his performances. Khan has won thirteen Filmfare Awards for his work in Indian films, seven of which are in the Best Actor category.

Khan's films such as Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (1995), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998), Chak De India (2007), Om Shanti Om (2007) and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) remain some of Bollywood's biggest hits, while films like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001), Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003), Veer-Zaara (2004), Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006) and My Name Is Khan (2010) have been top-grossing Indian productions in the overseas markets, making him one of the most successful actors of India.[2] Since 2000, Khan branched out into film production and television presenting as well. He is the founder/owner of two production companies, Dreamz Unlimited and Red Chillies Entertainment. Khan is today considered to be the world's most successful movie star,[3] with a fan following numbering in the billions[4] and a net worth estimated at over Rs 2500 crore (US$ 540 million).[5] In 2008, Newsweek named him one of the 50 most powerful people in the world.

Khan was born in 1965 to Muslim parents of Pathan descent in New Delhi, India. His father, Taj Mohammed Khan, was an Indian independence activist from Peshawar, British India. According to Khan, his paternal grandfather was originally from Afghanistan. His mother, Lateef Fatima, was the adopted daughter of Major General Shah Nawaz Khan of the Janjua Rajput clan, who served as a General in the Indian National Army of Subash Chandra Bose.Khan's father came to New Delhi from Qissa Khawani Bazaar in Peshawar before the partition of India, while his mother's family came from Rawalpindi, British India. Khan has an elder sister named Shehnaz.

Growing up in Rajendra Nagar neighbourhood,Khan attended St. Columba's School where he was accomplished in sports, drama, and academics. He won the Sword of Honour, an annual award given to the student who best represents the spirit of the school. Khan later attended the Hansraj College (1985–1988) and earned his Bachelors degree in Economics (honors). Though he pursued a Masters Degree in Mass Communications at Jamia Millia Islamia, he later opted out to make his career in Bollywood.

After the death of his parents, Khan moved to Mumbai in 1991. In that same year, before any of his films were released, he married Gauri Chibber, a Hindu, in a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony on 25 October 1991.They have two children, son Aryan (b. 1997) and daughter Suhana (b. 2000). According to Khan, while he strongly believes in Allah, he also values his wife's religion. At home, his children follow both religions, with the Qur'an being situated next to the Hindu deities.

In 2005, Nasreen Munni Kabir produced a two-part documentary on Khan, titled The Inner and Outer World of Shah Rukh Khan. Featuring his 2004 Temptations concert tour, the film contrasted Khan's inner world of family and daily life with the outer world of his work. The book Still Reading Khan, which details his family life, was released in 2006. Another book by Anupama Chopra, "King of Bollywood: Shahrukh Khan and the seductive world of Indian cinema", was released in 2007. This book described the world of Bollywood through Khan's life.

Khan has been awarded several honours which includes the Padma Shri, India's fourth highest civilian award from the Government of India in 2005. In April 2007, a life-size wax statue of Khan was installed at the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum, London. Another statue was installed at the Musée Grévin in Paris, the same year.During the same year, he was accorded the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Order of the Arts and Literature) award by the French government for his “exceptional career”.

In October 2008, Khan was conferred the Darjah Mulia Seri Melaka which carries the honorific Datuk (in similar fashion to "Sir" in British knighthood), by the Yang di-Pertua Negeri Tun Mohd Khalil Yaakob, the head of state of Malacca in Malaysia. Khan was honoured for "promoting tourism in Malacca" by filming One Two Ka Four there in 2001. Some were critical of this decision.He was also honoured with an honorary doctorate in arts and culture from Britain's University of Bedfordshire in 2009.

Film career

Background

Khan studied acting under celebrated Theatre Director Barry John at Delhi's Theatre Action Group (TAG). In 2007, John commented thus on his former pupil that, "The credit for the phenomenally successful development and management of Shahrukh's career goes to the superstar himself." Khan made his acting debut in 1988 when he appeared in the television series, Fauji, playing the role of Commando Abhimanyu Rai. He went on to appear in several other television serials, most notably in the 1989 serial, Aziz Mirza's Circus, which depicted the life of circus performers.The same year, Khan also had a minor role in the made-for-television English-language film, In Which Annie Gives it Those Ones, which was based on life at Delhi University and was written by Arundhati Roy.
1990s

Upon moving from New Delhi to Mumbai in 1991,Khan made his Bollywood movie debut in Deewana (1992). The movie became a box office hit, and launched his career in Bollywood.His performance won him a Filmfare Best Male Debut Award. He went on to star in Maya Memsaab, which generated some controversy because of his appearance in an "explicit" sex scene in the movie.

In 1993, Khan won acclaim for his performances in villainous roles as an obsessive lover and a murderer, respectively, in the box office hits, Darr and Baazigar. Darr marked his first collaboration with renowned film-maker Yash Chopra and his banner Yash Raj Films, the largest production company in Bollywood. Baazigar, which saw Khan portraying an ambiguous avenger who murders his girlfriend, shocked its Indian audience with an unexpected violation of the standard Bollywood formula.His performance won him his first Filmfare Best Actor Award. In that same year, Khan played the role of a young musician in Kundan Shah's Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, a performance that earned him a Filmfare Critics Award for Best Performance. Khan maintains that this is his all-time favourite among the movies he has acted in.In 1994, Khan once again played an obsessive lover/psycho's role in Anjaam, co-starring alongside Madhuri Dixit. Though the movie was not a box office success, Khan's performance earned him the Filmfare Best Villain Award.

In 1995, Khan starred in Aditya Chopra's directorial debut Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, a major critical and commercial success, for which he won his second Filmfare Best Actor Award. In 2007, the film entered its twelfth year in Mumbai theaters. By then the movie had grossed over 12 billion rupees, making it as one of India's biggest movie blockbusters. Earlier in the same year he found success in Rakesh Roshan's Karan Arjun which became the second biggest hit of the year.

1996 was a disappointing year for Khan as all his movies released that year failed to do well at the box office. This was, however, followed by a comeback in 1997. He saw success with Subhash Ghai's social drama Pardes — one of the biggest hits of the year — and Aziz Mirza's comedy Yes Boss, a moderately successful feature. His second project with Yash Chopra as a director, Dil to Pagal Hai became that year's second highest-grossing movie, and he won his third Filmfare Best Actor Award for his role as a stage director who falls in love with one of his new actresses.

In 1998, Khan starred in Karan Johar's directorial debut, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, which was the biggest hit of the year.His performance won him his fourth Best Actor award at the Filmfare. He won critical praise for his performance in Mani Ratnam's Dil Se. The movie did not do well at the Indian box office, though it was a commercial success overseas.Khan's only release in 1999, Baadshah, was an average grosser.
2000s

Khan's success continued with Aditya Chopra's 2000 film, Mohabbatein, co-starring Amitabh Bachchan. It did well at the box office, and Khan's performance as a college teacher won him his second Critics Award for Best Performance. He also starred in Mansoor Khan's action film Josh. The film starred Khan as the leader of a Christian gang in Goa and Aishwarya Rai as his twin sister, and was also a box office success.In that same year, Khan set up his own production house, Dreamz Unlimited with Juhi Chawla (see below). Both Khan and Chawla starred in the first movie of their production house, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani.[40] His work with Karan Johar continued as he collaborated on the family drama Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham which was the second biggest hit of the year. He also received favorable reviews for his performance as Emperor Asoka in the historical epic, Asoka, a partly fictionalised account of the life of Ashoka the Great (304 BC–232 BC).

In 2002, Khan received acclaim for playing the title role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's award-winning period romance, Devdas. It was the third Hindi movie adaptation of Sharat Chandra Chattopadhyay's well-known novel of the same name, and surfaced as one of the biggest hits of that year. Khan also starred opposite Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit in the family-drama Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam, which did well at the box office.In 2003, Khan starred in the moderately successful romantic drama, Chalte Chalte.That same year, he starred in the tearjerker, Kal Ho Naa Ho, written by Karan Johar and directed by Nikhil Advani. Khan's performance in this movie as a man with a fatal heart disease was appreciated. The movie proved to be one of the year's biggest hits in India and Bollywood's biggest hit in the overseas markets.

2004 was a particularly good year for Khan, both commercially and critically. He starred in Farah Khan's directorial debut, the comedy Main Hoon Na. The movie did well at the box office. He then played the role of an Indian officer, Veer Pratap Singh in Yash Chopra's love saga Veer-Zaara, which was the biggest hit of 2004 in both India and overseas. The film relates the love story of Veer and Pakistani woman Zaara Haayat Khan, played by Preity Zinta. Khan's performance in the film won him awards at several award ceremonies. In that same year, he received critical acclaim for his performance in Ashutosh Gowariker's drama Swades. He was nominated for the Filmfare Best Actor Award for all three of his releases in 2004, winning it for Swades.

In 2006, Khan collaborated with Karan Johar for the fourth time with the melodrama movie Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. It did well in India and much more so in the overseas market, becoming the biggest Bollywood hit in the overseas market of all-time. His second release that year saw him playing the title role in the action film Don, a remake of the 1978 hit Don. The movie was a success.

Khan's success continued with a few more highly popular films. One of his most successful works was the multiple award-winning 2007 film, Chak De India, about the Indian women's national hockey team. Earning over Rs 639 million, Chak De India became the third highest grossing movie of 2007 in India and won yet another Filmfare Best Actor Award for Khan.The film was a major critical success. In the same year Khan also starred in Farah Khan's 2007 film, Om Shanti Om. The film emerged as the year's highest grossing film in India and the overseas market, and became India's highest grossing production ever up to that point. It earned him another nomination for Best Actor at the Filmfare ceremony. Khan's more recent films include the 2008 release, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi which was a huge box office success, and his only 2009 release was Billu which failed at the box office.

Khan's next film, My Name Is Khan, was released on 12 February 2010.While on one shoot in Los Angeles, along with his wife Gauri and director Karan Johar, he took a break from filming to attend the 66th Golden Globe Awards, held in Los Angeles, California, on 11 January 2009.Khan introduced Slumdog Millionaire along with a star from the film, Freida Pinto

சங்கத் தமிழ்ப் பேரவையின் நன்றிப் பெருவிழா


SRK has a new fan





Bipasha Basu says she adores Shah Rukh Khan.So what is news in this? Every girl in Bollywood likes him. Bipasha also loves Gauri Khan.

She says Gauri is the classiest star wife she has met. Bips recently requested SRK to do a small interview for her fitness video. And she was blown away by the hospitality given to her by Gauri and SRK. While SRK was recording his bit for Bips' video, Gauri played the perfect hostess.

And when the sexy Bong actress left Mannat that day, SRK had added one more name to his long list of fans.

Gorgeous Vidya Balan at Ishqiya DVD launch





Ishqiya directed by Vishal Bhardwaj created a new benchmark with its unique flavour and earthy music. The film was well received by audiences all over India. Arshad Warsi and Vidya Balan launched the DVD of Ishqiya and both requested their fans to put an end to piracy. The DVD of the film includes behind the scene shots and clips which didn’t make it to the silver screen.

Harbhajan-Basra may tie the knot soon




Harbhajan Singh and Geeta Basra’s relationship is finally turning towards marriage. The couples have got green signal and soon they might enter the wedlock.

Bhaaji recently took Geeta for his sister Sandeep Kaur’s wedding in Jalandhar. Bhajan’s family gave her a grand welcome and that indicates that soon she might become the part of their family.

Finally Cricketainment will witness a wedding!!

Is Deepika and Siddharth bothering Ranbir




Well we don’t know whether Deepika is dating Vijay Mallya’s son Siddhart or not? But their alleged affair has really concerned Ranbir.

When all these rumours were doing rounds, Ranbir requested everybody to keep her alone.
According to Ranbir, people should not read between the lines as both of them were cheering for Royal Challengers.

Looks like Ranbir still feels for Deepika.

Katherine Heigl almost puts the 'show' in ShoWest





Oops.

This wasn't a planned wardrobe stunt: A while before going on stage at the conference's final event in Las Vegas, E! News' cameras captured a moment when Heigl, kvetching a bit about the bajillion beauty details she'd had to attend to before making her appearance.
"Ohh! I think I just popped something," said the new brunet, eyes wide. Then she brushed off whatever had happened on her left shoulder as no big deal.

Turns out the real popping was yet to come -- but fortunately her reflexes were fast, and emcee Billy Bush had Heigl's back.

And ultimately her strap.

See the E! video after the jump, or click on the photo of Sam Worthington, male star of the year, to launch a photo gallery of the ShoWest scene.

Heidi Klum




Some women love shopping, Heidi Klum loves having babies.

"I always love being pregnant," the 36-year-old mommy of four gushed to us this morning at the I Heart Diet Coke and The Heart Truth pop-up store in Santa Monica. "I love everything about it. I love going to the hospital and having babies, I love everything."

So how many more celebuspawn are she and music superstar hubby Seal planning on?

Sandra Bullock


Those possibly cursed Best Actresses have to stick together. Or at least behave alike.




Just days after Sandra Bullock cited "unforeseen personal reasons" as her totally understandable justification for backing out of a London movie premiere, the recently separated Kate Winslet has also reneged on a similar promotional opportunity, E! News confirmed Friday.

Though this time around, the subsequent wave of allegations (and apologies) that followed Bullock's back out aren't expected in Winslet's case—in fact, if anything, her obligatory turn at the center of the rumor mill preceded her decision.

In any case, Winslet has quietly removed her name from the list of celebs expected to attend Monday's New York premiere of A Mother's Courage: Talking Back to Autism, an HBO documentary she narrated.

No reason was given for the un-RSVP, though we're hoping the lure of all you can drink margaritas had something to do with it.

deepika padukone




Salman Khan apparently checked out Deepika Padukone when she was first signed to do Shah Rukh Khan’s Om Shanti Om.

He was mighty impressed with her beauty and talent. But at that time, he was doing Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Saawariya. And with a proxy war going on between OSO and Saawariya, the lead actors of the two movies didn’t really interact much with each other. Now it’s being said that Salman wants to do a movie with Deepika more than ever before. Deepika too had once told BT, “Salman is one actor I’m looking forward to doing a film with.”

Trade sources say that director Anees Bazmee will cast these two good-looking people together. Deepika said she’s unaware of these reports but sources close to Salman say that this is a definite and immediate possibility because “Bhai wants to do a movie with Deepika.” If this casting coup happens, it could be one up on the current sensations, Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif who are also looked upon as a hot screen jodi. Of course, don’t read between the lines and try and see any ulterior motive in Salman’s desire to do a movie with the gorgeous Bangalore beauty. It’s a plain and simple case of good casting.
