Lovers-turn-foes Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai

Lovers-turn-foes Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai almost bumped into each other on Sunday. In fact, they get too close to each other that they just couldn’t go about freely.

It so happened both Salman and Aishwarya were shooting at Mehboob Studios all day for their respective films. Salman was shooting for his much-talked about film Veer while Ash was shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish.

Adding more drama to the aura, Ranbir Kapoor, who was linked with Salman’s girlfriend Katrina Kaif, was also there shooting for Yash Raj Films’ Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year.

The unit of Veer was worried that Salman might lose his cool and create havoc at the studio. But to their surprise, Salman made sure that everything was alright.

He stayed away from the sets of Guzaarish to avoid his old flame. He didn’t even speak to Sanjay Leela Bhansali though he has good rapport with him.

Aishwarya Rai And Shah Rukh Khan To Pair Up Again

The 'Mohabbatein' (2000) pair of Aishwarya Rai- Bachchan And Shah Rukh Khan are all set to end a seven year sabbatical and team up once again for King Khan's home banner, ‘Red Chillies Entertainment.’

As may be recalled after 'Mohabbatein', the SRK-Aish pair had shot for Aziz Mirza's 'Chalte Chalte'(2003).

Unfortunately due to an on the set showdown involving the lead pair and Salman Khan, Aishwarya was ousted from the project and in came Rani.

As a fallout SRK was not invited for the Abhishek-Aishwarya wedding.

Katrina Kaif has pummeled Aishwarya Rai

Katrina’s angelic face, gorgeous smile and down-to-earth attitude makes her the hot favourite among netizens.

Katrina Kaif will be back with a bang in a meaty role in Prakash Jha’s Rajniti and dabbles with comedy in Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani and is paired opposite her best co-star Akshay Kumar in De Dana Dan.


Meanwhile former beauty queen and an international face, Aishwarya Rai, holds the second position.

Now busy with the shooting for the film Raavana with her hubby Abhishek Bachchan, she has a string of films with big directors like Vipul Shah, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Rituparno Ghosh. Katrina recently took a shot at Kareena Kapoor.

Katrina, the more successful of the two let Kareena take one below the belt as she criticised Bebo’s preference of showing more skin to male audiences rather than acting on screen. This was in direct reference to Kareena’s latest disaster ‘Kambakkht Ishq’ where she pranced around half naked for most of her running time with limited expressions.

Health-based adjustments between Abhishek and Aishwarya

Health-based adjustments for Bollywood’s first-couple Abhishek and Aishwarya Bachchan.First, an important schedule of Mani Ratnam’s Raavan got postponed because of the director’s health scare (it’s expected to resume any time now).

And now the thriller tentatively titled Crooked, which Abhishek and Aishwarya were supposed to start this summer, has been pushed to the end of the year, again for health reasons.

Director Abhinay Deo was supposed to start Crooked immediately after his directorial debut. However Abhinay who’s just wrapped up Delhi Belly for producer Aamir Khan has a seriousness illness in his family.

Deo’s wife has fallen ill, and the director suddenly needed to take time off to be with her thereby, throwing the entire Crooked schedule off course.

Abhishek and Aishwarya have readjusted their dates. We now shoot in Greece, Istanbul and Thailand at year-end.

Incidentally the film won’t be finally called Crooked. “We need a good Hindi title. And we’ve told the film’s dialogue writer Anurag Kashyap to find one for us,” says Sidhwani.

Dumping the L’Oreal issue, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Sonam Kapoor turned friends. They joined hands at Karan Johar’s party.

Ash has sorted out the differences. The duo garnered much attention recently due to their cat-fights. The spark from both the sides was so strong that the issue became a national news.

However, everything between them has now sorted out and they are now making news for their new friendship.

Sonam Kapoor is even going to make her stage debut at the IIFA event in which the Bachchans are playing the most important part.

Sonam Kapoor who is a die-hard Aishwarya fan

After the Cannes’ red carpet fiasco, Sonam Kapoor who is a die-hard Aishwarya Bachchan fan (as per her own confession) walked up to the latter at Karan Johar’s birthday party on May 25 and extended an olive branch. Sonam was excited about walking down the red carpet with Ash during the Cannes Film Festival, however, that didn’t happen.



Sonam and Ash represent the same beauty brand and chances are that these actresses might have to walk the red carpet at some event in the future. So the young Sonam wanted all to be well between her and Ash.Aishwarya was a picture of grace,” said a source at the party.

Shahrukh Khan extended olive branch to Aishwarya for wrong

Karan Johar’s birthday party puts an end to Shahrukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s dushmani. They came, attended the party and became friends thereby putting an end to the year’s long rivalry.

The two has been sharing a bitter relationship from the days of ‘Chalte Chalte’ after King Khan dropped Ash and signed Rani Mukherjee. Their relationship further damaged when SRK and his family were not invited to Ash-Abhi’s wedding.

Their relationship finally came to an end after SRK passed unceremonious comment against Aishwarya during Katrina’s birthday bash. After that very event, the Bachchan family had almost cut ties with Shahrukh.

On Monday night, when Shahrukh with family and Ash with hubby Abhishek came across, SRK extended olive branch to Ash and apologized to her for the wrong. A source gives an inside details of the happening, “A few minutes into the conversation with Ash, SRK apologized to her.

Aishwarya Rai refuses to let Sonam Kapoor walk the red carpet

Aishwarya Rai refuses to let Sonam Kapoor walk the red carpet as the face of the international cosmetic brand which is endorsed by both of them.

If its Aiswarya Rai, controversy follows her if you talk about the red carpet at Cannes. Last time it was for her awful fashion sense and this it’s the cat-fight with Bollywood newcomer Sonam Kapoor.

Added to the list of ambassadors this year itself, Sonam Kapoor was promised by the company that she would be accompanying Aishwarys Rai Bachchan, Eva Longoria and Michelle Yeoh on the red carpet.

Considering Cannes to be her domain, when Aishwarya came to know of the news that the limelight would be shared by Sonam Kapoor as well, she went crazy.

But her deal with the company is clear that she would be the international face while Sonam would be the Indian face. For a moment she thought that Sonam was being misled, but when she found the actual story she put her foot down.

Aishwarya Rai to work with Vivek and Salman

Comedy and entertainment are no longer restricted to Bollywood. They have seeped into the media reportage of the happenings in the industry.

One such funny rumour that took tinsel town by surprise was of Aishwarya Rai agreeing to act in a film with her two ex beaus – Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi . The rumour said that director Satish Kaushik had managed to do the impossible by getting Ash’s nod to star opposite the two male actors in his movie titled ‘Tansen’.

Now, this is a kind of rumour that stumped the happily married Ash more than anyone. While she has graciously chosen to ignore the gossip rather than waste her time denying it, Kaushik, who has been flooded with calls about the casting coup, is upset, to say the least.
