Noor
Starring Sonakshi Sinha, Purab Kohli, Kannan Gill, M K Raina, Smita Tambe
Directed by Suhnil Sippy
Honestly, the conscience has become a huge liability in these times. As a journalist with a good three decades of experience I still have problem deciding where to draw the line between professionalism and ethics.
Though I couldn’t relate to her endless boozing and snoozing, Noor Roy Choudhary as played by Sonakshi Sinha , is someone I’ve known in passing.And that’s I would keep her if I met her. At a safe distance.
Noor is not one of the best films on journalistic ethics. It doesn’t do to the contemporary Mumbai media world what the Paul Newman-Sally Field starrer Absence Of Malice did 30 years ago. It pricks at the conscience in a rather undemanding way. Noor takes sly and slender satirical swipes at sensationalism in journalism, more...

Alia Bhatt is here again and this time not only for her acting prowess or her high-street fashion wear but in a singing-dancing ‘avatar’ rocking the much appreciated, adaptation of the song ‘Ae Zindagi Gale Laga Le’. The video is doing rounds on social media and the element of interest is Alia’s double role in the video. The video is pretty much linked with the movie ‘Dear Zindagi’ and it’s like Alia’s gesture of love for it. The video finds Alia adorning two different roles. One of a dancer who dances her way out with the impactful lyrics of the song. Her expressions, undoubtedly show the passion with which she is dancing. Alia’s Rockstar look and her free and husky voice, adds to the depth of the song. Arijit Singh’s attempt of ‘Ae Zindagi’ is there in the album and as always he has done a superb job.

Bollywood has shown that is more than welcome to new scripts in the last few years. The number of pleasantly surprising films has increased considerably, even if it’s a tad slow. One of these such films was English Vinglish by Gauri Shinde. The movie was more than just a comeback film for the epic actress Sridevi, it became a story of the household hero we see every day in our parents. Dear Zindagi follows a similar pattern in displaying before us a journey that any individual regardless of gender, age, profession or emotional capacity could go through. So let’s dig in.
The journey of a person can be considered a boring and predictable backdrop for any film. Every person will come across situations in life that they have a default reaction to. Some may be good where we laugh and are happy, and some may be bad where we cry or get angry.

It isn’t easy being Gauri Shinde. Not when you have made English Vinglish as your debut film, for God’s sake! Where do you go from that dizzying summit of achievement?
Clearly and unconditionally, in her second film, monumental in its own right, Gauri is not bogged down by expectations. She is, in that sense, exactly like her protagonist in Dear Zindagi (played with supreme sang-froid by Alia Bhatt, more about her later). Not eager to be liked by all, unafraid to appear unconventional, fiercely prideful about her emotional space and passionately attached to her individualism, Gauri Shinde, like her fey protagonist, Kaira, grooves to her own beat. And if want to join in, we are most welcome. Otherwise there’s always the next Karan Johar mush-room to munch on …

How much Bollywood actresses get paid has remained a mystery ever since Kangana Ranaut came out strongly against the disparity in the paychecks compared to their male counterparts in the industry. While the debate did push their salaries up by some crores, the difference still remains quite apparent. Kangana recently became the highest paid actress in Bollywood when she signed a movie for Rs 11 crores. Her revised remuneration was well justified in her post Queen phase. She won a National Award for the same. But have you thought about the figure Salman Khan, the highest paid actor in Bollywood, commands? It’s more than five times – Rs 60 crores!
According to Ians, superstars Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar were a part of Forbes first global list of actors. The trio ranked among the world’s top ten highest-paid actors, which included Hollywood to Hong Kong and Bollywood. While the...

Nakul Dev Mahajan is known as Hollywood’s Bollywood choreographer and has, along with training students in the art of Bollywood dance at his Bollywood dance academies, been making contestants naach to the Hindi film music beat on the popular dance reality show So You Think You Can Dance (Sytycd) since Season 4. With many memorable numbers including his first to ‘Dhoom Taana’ featuring Sytycd super couple Joshua and Katee, the choreographer has, with a folk classic flavor, given audiences a wonderful view into this amazing dance style.
I recently chatted with the choreographer, in two wonderful interviews, about all things bolly-naach including his two numbers on Sytycd so far this season, his special judging appearance on a popular Indian dance reality show and so much more.

The girl on the move is now ready to move out of protective parents' home. Yes, Alia Bhatt has bought her own place, just a stone's throw away from her family home in Juhu where she spent her entire 23 years with her parents and sister Shaheen. The home is being done up by Alia's mom, the very aesthetic Soni Razdan with invaluable inputs from Alia's grandfather. Says Alia excitedly, "It's all very new and unexplored for me. I've so far lived all my life with my parents. But now I need my own place. I made sure I got a place very close to my parents' home. You step out of my old home and you step into the new home." Her Nanajee, mom Soni's father, who is 87, has helped Alia with designing her new apartment. "My grandfather is an architect and still active professionally. My mom and...

Chitrangda Singh's item number in Gabbar Is Back (Aao Raja) is getting a mixed response but what really caught our attention is Chitrangda's outfit (especially her golden choli). Just like her, various actresses including Sunny Leone have stunned in the choli look. Check out more...
Sunny Leone in 'Dholi Taaro'
She not only danced to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's 'Dholi Taaro', but also looked absolutely ravishing in a pink choli!
Deepika Padukone in 'Dilliwali Girlfriend'
Deepika Padukone's dance with her ex-flame wasn't the only enticing thing in this song. Her red choli was rather appealing to the eyes, and Deeps didn't mind glamourising them either. Don't believe us? Go watch the song!
Vidya Balan in 'Ooh La La'
This one could not be ignored, as Vidya herself flaunted not only her cleavage but also her choli!

The awards season in Bollywood would not be the same without the Filmfare Awards, which took place few days ago. We all know who won and who did not when it comes to their performances, but it is now time to reveal who earned the title of the most stylish celebrity of the night!
Deepika Padukone
Waist up, Deepika’s dress looks dainty and feminine, but the ruffles that make up the skirt on this Ashi Studio gown are not flattering at all. Makeup and hair are great as usual but they are not enough to pull the look.
Verdict: Not Hot
Alia Bhatt
The actress chose a Monisha Jaining dress for the evening. Alia opted for an edgier look with this black leather dress with big earrings and sparkly shoes. Both hair and makeup work great to create a very sexy look.
Verdict: Hot
Dia Mirza

As reflections of Indian cinema in 2014 do their rounds, there are some very common conclusions everyone has come to that are undeniable. And that it was not the greatest year for actors but quite a year full of feats for our ladies. Indian cinema has come a long way in terms of credible roles and films for our leading ladies. Whilst we are still flooded with the kind of cinema that provide the leading actress with nothing more than a page of dialogues (if that) and 4 songs, we do get the occasional Sridevi in English Vinglish or a Vidya Balan in Kahaani. 2014 gave us more of these rare moments than we bargained for. No doubt we are still hungry for more from our ladies, however we choose to not stop and lament about what we lack but instead reflect on the brilliant year the ladies of Indian cinema have had.

Khan Reunion
It was a big moment for Bollywood and it’s fans when people finally saw superstars Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Salman Khan coming together in public after a very long time. The three Khans reunited initially during Salman’s sister Arpita Khan’s wedding. However, the trio came together publicly at a function which celebrated 21 years of the television show Aap Ki Adalat.

It looks like Alia Bhatt is taking her reputation as the female serial kisser very seriously. Her first four films Student Of The Year, Highway, 2 States and Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhaniya featured the actress in a lip-lock positions with her co-stars. Now one hears there would be a kiss, albeit a very pertinent one, between Alia and her new co-star Shahid Kapoor in her next film Shaandaar. While the film's director Vikas Bahl remains tight-lipped about the lip-lock, one of the film's core-team members spilled the beans saying, "There was a very important kiss in the script. But Vikas was not keen on going through that scene mainly because Shahid is not quite Alia's age-group. Vikas didn't want any awkwardness between them. But both Shahid and Alia were cool with the idea of the kiss." Alia Bhatt in an interview with me had confessed she had a school-girl crush on...
