Arjun Rampal and wifey Mehr Jessia started a restaurant recently and invited close friends from the industry that included – Shahrukh and Gauri, Hrithik and Suzanne, Imran and Avantika, Sumeet Verma, Giselle Montiero etc.

Imran Khan has broken many hearts now that he is engaged to girlfriend Avantika. Its not official yet, but Imran is keen on making the formal announcement but only in January, the industry has already raised a toast to the couple.

“Yes it’s true. But we’re planning to have a proper ceremony later, so right now it’s just for us and our families,” admitted Imran refusing to reveal the wedding date. But, a source said, “Imran had thrown a surprise party for Avantika on her birthday on July 18, a very private affair, with only very close family and friends present. There he surprised everyone by proposing to Avantika. Amidst much cheering, she accepted.”

But Bollywood got whiff of the news last week at Arjun Rampal’s nightclub opening in Delhi where Imran and Avantika were spotted. When Arjun found out about the couple’s engagement, he doubled the celebration quotient by announcing it. Several Bollywood biggies including Karan Johar who were present congratulated them.

Emphasizing over the importance of parents, she says, “I don’t think anyone can deny the bond one has with one’s parents and those who do, I think that they’re not human.. woh log insaan nahi hai!”

“My maternal grandmother died under very unfortunate circumstances. My cousin who was playing with a bow and arrow actually hurt my grandmother’s eye with the arrow and she was paralysed and passed away on my mother’s birthday. And it was my parents who looked after her till her last breath.”
On listening to this relevation Farah asked, , “This despite the fact that she had three sons?”

Bipasha replied,“Yes, my mother has three brothers and she loves them a lot. But I don’t feel affectionate towards my uncles at all. I strongly feel that our parents give us so much in life and the least we can do is love them back in their old age when they’re alone, when they’re spouse has passes away and they are alone…”

“My grandfather had died and all my grandmother needed was some affection from her children. I explain this to my mother that in all our growing years, she had wanted a son but with time, now that she has seen the world, she knows that there’s nothing better than her daughters… I can see that realization in my mother’s eyes!”

Indeed!

Actor-producer Suniel Shetty is all set to play a real life character in “Red Alert-The War Within” about the Maoist movement in the Telangana region of Andhra Pradesh.

Suniel plays the central character of Narasimha, a farm labourer who needs money to fund the education of his children. He finds himself in the midst of Maoists and his mission becomes a mere subset of a greater cause that the militants pursue.

Kim Sharma who made a lot of news while dating cricketer Yuvraj Singh, is finally over him and is planning to get married to her Spanish boyfriend Carlos Martin, who she has been dating all the while. Perhaps Kim learnt a lot from her previous mistakes that she didn’t quite publicize her latest relationship. Nonetheless, we wish her luck for her wedding that is scheduled to take place in February 2010… we hope Martin sustains his interest in the lady till then.

Check out Amitabh Bachchan sharing the same screen space as Hollywood superstar Ben Kingsley in Teen Patti. Looks like an interesting film to me!

Pankh is the story of Baby Kusum highlighting the practice of casting children in roles opposite to their natural genders. This film purports to delve into the psyche of one such person who was forced to assume a gender role other than his natural gender and analyses the disastrous consequences that follow and destroy him in his adulthood. Baby Kusum is the story of a boy burdened with a sexual identity not his own. It is about the brutality of a society that imposes superficial gender codes.
