I am working in some good projects and all these projects approached me directly," said Kavita Radheshyam.The actress who always stayed in news for reasons such as giving a sexy photo-shoot tribute to late Silk Smitha to refusing Bigg Boss season 5 wild card entry offer agreed there are good people networking on the world's biggest social networking site, But some Losers try and give bad name to the genuine people."I had a very small friend list in my Facebook profile that consists of genuine people. But what i really hate about Facebook is there are so manyCelebrities account which are Fake and by the time you come to know, it's too late. Even the Police Authority refuses any help here because the procedure takes a long time. The second thing which irritated me the most is any wannabe loser projects himself as a filmmaker and tries to act funny with you by sending you cheap messages even if he is not in your Friend-list." concluded Kavita.Kavita is looking forward to the release of her most hyped Kannada action thriller Ragini IPS. She is also doing another Kannada Film along with a Marathi and a Hindi film which she refused to divulge any details.

Meanwhile, Big B recently celebrated his 71th birthday, and on the big occasion, he went down the memory lane. "It is 71 now. Just last year or just the other day it was 70! The years seem to pass by faster now than they did before," Amitabh posted on his official blog."There was a desire to push the pedal all along those early years, to mature, to become adult, to bring on greater age. Now, you depress the brakes pedal with equal effort, and hope to stem the slide as it were," he added.However, at the same time, he is accepting the years, as he said, "No not I, I accept the years, the giving up on time, on age. It shall happen to us all. That is the commonality of the process of life. We are blessed, all of us."

Tigmanshu Dhulia’s latest offering Bullet Raja may have missed the target at box office, but it has been collecting appreciations for the star daughter Sonakshi Sinha, who portrayed a character that is far from any vulgarity and controversy. She says her next film R…Rajkumar also has the influence of her style, which is again on the lines of Indian traditions.It is a known fact that Sonakshi have never played a damsel in distress. Be it her debut movie Dabangg or R…Rajkumar, the audience finds her, often, cladding in Indian outfits. “My closest friends know I am pretty bindaas that way, and these characters that I have played, have been women of substance and people who have their own voice. I think that when people meet me they realize that I am like that, and that's why I get cast for these roles. I wear my heart on my sleeve, and portray who I am on screen,” said Bullet Raja girl.She added that she has her own rules about what she will or won't do on screen, and is very unapologetic about them. Sonakshi wore a sari and came out of the water in Gandi Baat in R... Rajkumar, there was much talk about the missing bikini from that quintessential Bollywood scene.“I am glad that people are talking about it. I found it really funny when it was brought to my notice - that when people come out of the water, they come out in bikinis, and I was in a sari. Prabhu sir (Prabhu Deva, the director) knows how to project his heroines in a good way without making it look vulgar or cheap. So I was very happy, I had no qualms in doing that scene. And really, being sexy or sex appeal doesn't lie in the length of your clothes or how skimpy an outfit is or how much you're revealing. I think it's always nicer to leave stuff to imagination,” she averred.You have a point girl.

While most celebrities complain of not being able to enjoy their private life due to media scrutiny, actress Ileana D’Cruz is perfectly fine with it, and she is glad that she can go shopping without getting mobbed. Last seen in Phata Poster Nikhla Hero, Ileana is having fun with her freedom."People don't recognise me, so I can shop like any girl," she says. In fact she says it with big smile on her face, and there is no dejection that even after giving two back-to-back hits, she doesn’t enjoy huge fan following. May be it has to do with her being a private person."I am a very private person, I don't open up easily to people, I take some time. Unless I really trust somebody I can't start a conversation. Maybe if I slowly and gradually know a person that I open up. I am incredibly emotional and sensitive," says Ileana D'Cruz.She further adds, "Possibly because I am in a new place and hence I prefer keeping to myself. When I was doing my first film Barfi I was very nervous and I was working with two other actors who were established and I didn't have much to say. So that also could be the reason why I didn't speak much." And what about the rumours of her throwing tantrums and being arrogant? "There is no element of truth in it."In Phata Poster Nikhla Hero, she was seen opposite Shahid Kapoor!

After coming out with the confession regarding his homosexuality, singer Ricky Martin felt liberated, and about the same, he spoke recently. It was in 2010 that Martin accepted being a gay, and claimed that it would be wonderful if he can successfully do that again.Martin, 41, said that he was really scared about the feedback of his peers. "I was terrified. I had to really work on my self esteem to understand that it`s all about self love, and other people`s opinions weren`t what was important," Martin wrote to a fan during a Facebook chat."What was important was accepting myself exactly as I am, as I was born. I insist, it wasn`t easy, but wow, I wish I could come out again because it felt like I could `high five` God`," he added. For those unaware, the singer has twins Matteo and Valentino via surrogacy. Earlier, the Livin` la Vida Loca hitmaker had also revealed that he used to bully those people who were gay. "I look back now and realise I would bully people who I knew were gay. I had internalized homophobia. To realise that was confronting to me. I wanted to get away from that," Martin said."I didn`t want them (his twin sons) growing up in a house of lies or thinking that there was something wrong with being gay," he added.Good you realized it!

Once Amitabh Bachchan said in a statement that people in filmdom used to criticise him in his initial stage because of his giraffe length height, but instead of getting disappointed from the comments he fought with the community and proved his mettle to the entire industry.Something similar has experienced by Bollywood actress Nimrat Kaur, who says when she landed in tinsel town, people had different opinions about her look. She had an illiberal experience when a filmmaker advised her to go for a plastic surgery. She said, “When I came into the industry, people had different opinions about how I look. Some told me I was too pretty, others said I wasn't fair enough or tall enough. Nearly seven years ago, I was even advised by a filmmaker to consider plastic surgery. Soon, I stopped thinking about what works.”The actress, who stars in much acclaimed film The Lunchbox, has been now praised for her looks and performance by audience and critics as well. About the success she said, “I am happy with the kind of launch I have got. It is a very exciting time for actors as roles that can surprise them are being written. This was not the case 15 years ago. A film like The Dirty Picture would not have been possible then. Also we, including the audience, are more exposed to world cinema these days. Its effect has seeped into the industry. Filmmakers today have a wider vocabulary.”Way to girl!
