Grapevine is abuzz that the censor board has let go of the song Eggjactly which was to be used in Sunny Leone starrer Jackpot. But when sources got in touch with Leone, she states that Jackpot is a family film, hence there is no need of any censorship.Leone, 32, shot some bold scenes for the movie, however, she feels that it is censor board to choose what is suitable for young adults to watch. She feels, “Jackpot is not an A-certificate movie. So, they have to be really careful on what the subject matter is.”“But I don't think there is anything in the movie that requires censorship. It's a very nice family movie that everyone can watch,” added the actress, who entered showbiz with erotic thriller Jism 2. Leone was at the music launch of the film on Saturday. Film’s director Kaizad Gustad is not too happy with the censor board banning the song Eggjactly, by Javed Jaffrey."It's unnecessary. I don't understand why the song has been banned - it's funny and there is humour in it. It is not anything personal it is about the whole country. He has not attacked any one person. The censor board should have some sense of humour. It's just a funny song and he has not offended anybody. He has been very careful to avoid personal attacks," Gustad said.Meanwhile, actor-producer Sachiin Joshi, on the ban, said, "I seriously think it's somebody's ploy against me and I am being targeted."The film has been shot in Goa, and it releases on December 13!

Actors often complaints that they cannot bear the harsh rays of sunlight and that’s why they travel in tint sheeted cars. But, as per the Indian government’s rule book, it is a crime to have tinted films in cars. Government had banned the use of tinted glass, restricting visions beyond permissible limit as fixed under the Motor Vehicles Act, in vehicles.However, Bollywood celebrities are often caught by traffic police having tinted car windows. Recently actors Ajay Devgn and Vidya Balan have been reprimanded by traffic police for the tinted films in their cars. While, the Kahaani actress sweetly pays the fine every time but has requested the cops to let her keep the tinted film because she cannot handle the sunlight. Other side, Ajay Devgn bowled the cops over with his conscientiousness and had the tinted film removed immediately. Now the latest to join the bandwagon is Salman Khan, who was on his way to South Mumbai in his high-end vehicle. As per the reports, “The traffic cops stopped the vehicle at the Worli exit for the light tinted film. But once they spotted Salman Khan in it, the sombre mood immediately changed and the actor was greeted with a wide smile. The cops reportedly took pictures with the star on their mobile phones. The cops allegedly let off Salman with a light warning.”

From dearest Daddy’s death to a series of flop films or item songs, Priyanka Chopra has also experienced some of the sheer adventures in the year 2013 that has been turning a mix of failure and success for the actress.She has launched her second album Exotic, which was opened on a great note. She has also become the first Indian celebrity to endorse the international fashion brand Guess. She brought a Roll Royce worth Rs. 2 crore that raised many eye-brows around the country. Well, this is a short list of PC’s most talked stints she had done in the year. A lot has been written about PC’s new car. Google has been flooded up the odd story on 'who gifted PC the Rolls? Priyanka explained, “It's the first one I'm getting. It's not like I'm a car fiend. This one was to commemorate... well, my mom said I deserved one now. It was her idea.” “Why can't a woman be an achiever enough to buy herself a car, a diamond, a home - and I work bloody hard to get everything I do. I mean, I have no problem if someone gifts me a car, either, but if it is a gift, I'll say it is. I have nothing to hide. But it's mine,” she added.In that context, has 2013 been the most happening year of your life? “It's been the worst year of my life. Personally, I don't think there has been a worse year. It's such a dichotomy,” concluded Priyanka.“I think people want honest points of view now,” said Priyanka Chopra when sources asked her to put flesh light on her recent statement- “If art inspires crime, than Ajanta and Kamasutra should be banned,” said Priyanka adding, “As a film actor, people have a certain expectation about what your opinions will be - but I usually have contrary opinions, and hence, am always in trouble.”

In B-town the camaraderie between the actors keep on changing between time to time, and actress Juhi Chawla didn’t shy away in admitting so, while speaking to the sources recently. She mentioned that her friendship with superstar Shah Rukh Khan is not the same as before."Whose friendship is the same as ever before anyways! And we are very, very busy people and Shah Rukh Khan is all the more busy than anyone, so where we have time for friendships? But of course we are friends, no doubt," said Juhi."Not just him, anybody from the industry; where do I meet anyone as such? It just doesn't happen. We are all running around doing our work," she added. The two have starred in various films like Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Darr, Duplicate, Yes Boss, and most of their films were big hits. In fact their pairing was most loved, after Shah Rukh-Kajol."Of course I would love to do a film with him. Anybody will be interested in doing a film with him. But how, when, where... all this, maybe you should ask him only. We did wonderful films, we had great directors, I had a wonderful time but all that is history now. But I am so glad that it is a very good history," she said.Juhi will be next seen in Gulab Gang!
