Anywhere Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor goes, one question sure comes up in everyone’s mind that how he manages to look so young at this age. To which, Mr. India actor smilingly replies that he tries to live by his heart and keep on smiling to one and all. But, above to that he says he is a good lover, who loves to spread love and collects the same from family and friends that directly persuade his charm.   The actor, recently in an interview explained that however hectic work schedules are, he has never deprived himself of family time. “The actor is particularly unable to spend time with his spouse, Sunita Kapoor. He therefore makes it a point to have the first meal of the day, breakfast, with his beloved wife, every morning, even after 30 years of married life,” sources explained.How romantic it is! That’s what Anil makes to perform lively in front of camera. The actor is currently busy promoting his TV series 24 that will mark Anil Kapoor’s debut on television. The show is a Hindi adaption of American series with same name. Written by Rensil D'Silva and Bhavani Iyer, directed by Abhinay Deo and produced by Anil Kapoor Films, it will premiere on the Viacom co-owned Colors channel on 4th October 2013.

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!

Who would not like to shake a leg with the dashing star of the Bollywood industry aka John Abraham? The actor who can give you shrills with his slight smile is one of the most desired hunk of the industry, but what sources say is something really unusual. Huma Qureshi, who has not been in the industry for long has refused to do an item song with John Abraham in the upcoming movie Welcome Back. The actress, who was seen in the famous Anurag Kashyap’s movie Gangs of Wasseypur, has recently turned down the offer to shake a leg with Johnny boy since her demands were not being accepted by the filmmakers. It is being speculated that the actress was not happy with the paycheque, but was really keen to work with John. A close source to Huma said, “The makers of the film were very keen on signing her for the song but other commitments came in the way of her chance to dance with John.”When Anees Bazmee was contacted for the same, he put forth both the points, he said, “We wanted to have her in the song but then there were date issues. Also, she asked for a lot of money and that became a problem for us.”Now John will be seen with six girls in the song. We think that the actor has become even luckier with Huma’s refusal.

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.”

Some time back there was buzz making rounds that the star couple Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Roshan is divorcing. However, later the news was rubbished by the concerned parties, and it is learnt that the two are happy in their personal life with their two kids.Recently when Hrithik had to speak about his ladylove, he had all good things to say. “Sussanne has been my closest companion. She paid for my first date with her. She's still very ambitious and career-driven and I am very proud of her. She has established a name for herself and has her individuality in place. She is a very generous and loving person. I call her sunshine.“Whenever she enters the room, she puts a smile on people's faces. My handicaps or problems condemned me to lead a darkish life in the past while I was growing up. I would struggle day in and day out and so God must have thought of her as a blessing that he must send down for me as a ray of sunshine. That is how I have managed to survive.I had broken tools and was the last person people would have thought would make it. But she recognised the mettle in me. I am a fighter and I don't quit on anything in my life,” Hrithik said of her.Going by his words it is obvious that everything is fine between the couple!

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."

The luck is finally favoring back Vivek Oberoi, who had lost his sheen sometime back, and none of his last releases worked at the box-office. However, now with Grand Masti, an adult comedy, turning out to be a big hit, Vivek is undoubtedly all smiles. The film earned Rs. 26 crore in two days.

Director Prabhudheva gave this golden opportunity to Sonu Sood to play a crucial role in his film Ramaiya Vastavaiya. In the movie, Sood played lead actress Shruti Haasan's brother. And now Sood will be seen playing the main villain opposite Shahid Kapoor in R… Rajkumar."Prabhudeva has repeated Sonu in R... Rajkumar after Ramaiya Vastavaiya. While he had a very strong part to play as Shruti Haasan's brother in the latter, Sonu has been roped in as the main villain opposite Shahid Kapoor in the former. Prabhudheva finds him really non-fussy and after these two films, he plans to repeat the actor in his future outings as well," informs a source.Acknowledges Prabhudheva, "Sonu Sood is a very nice guy. He may be playing a villain in R... Rajkumar but he is a great guy. He is terrific in the film and his combination with Shahid and Sonakshi is quite remarkable. Out here is totally different from what he had done in Ramaiya Vastavaiya. While he was a little serious and emotional there, in R... Rajkumar, he is playing to the gallery and is very entertaining. Seldom do you find a villain who makes you smile as well as get angry on him. However he has managed to do that. As for my personal equation with him, I am happy and lucky to be his friend." Glad to work with Prabhu, Sood said, "I share a great rapport with him. When a director repeats you in back to back films then you are bound to feel nice. Prabhudheva has blind trust in me and that matters a lot. I am flattered to be a friend of Prabhudheva." Who would not be? LOL!

What would you call a film which draws so many inspirations from other Hollywood and Bollywood Rom-Coms and still looks as a confused and paranoid film just like the female lead character from this film? Here comes a yet-another frustrated crappy version of many Hollywood-Bollywood films in the form of Huff It's Too Much.First of all, the film tells a story about a couple in their 25 years of age living in London. Please take a look at the lead actor Pushkar Jog. Do you really think he looks like a 25 years old? Especially with his eye-wrinkles and double chinned face which cannot be avoided in the film's poster itself? Some news papers and tabloid claimed "Famous Marathi actor Pushkar Jog debuts through this Film" in their respective headers  (PR generated stories, Of course). Famous Marathi actor? Really? If Pushkar Jog is considered as a Famous Actor, What would you call stars like Bharat Jaadhav, Subodh Bhave, Ankush Chowdhary etc?As far as debut is concerned, Pushkar Jog has already debuted in a very less remembered multi-cast flop film called E.M.I Liya Hai Toh Chukana Padega (2008). Back home in Marathi Cinema, He has done some B Grade films which sank without a trace. He produces his own films and his debut Marathi (Self-Produced) film 'Zabardast' was directed by ace director Mahesh Kothare. Some insiders also claimed about the actor having a well-dressed staff accompanying him and wearing "Pushkar Jog Staff" name batch. Marathi cinema's Kamaal R Khan? Oops! No offense to anyone. Sorry please.Huff It's Too Much is a romantic-comedy revolving around a creative director, his quirky best friend and a woman that he is confused about. The film is an all and out youth centric romantic-comedy set in London dealing with the tryst and tribulation of young 'Desis' staying abroad.Another plot about Indians who live abroad and confused about their lifestyles and livings. Such plot, if treated in a right format can do really wonders. But it looks as if the people behind the scenes were only interested in shooting the film rather concentrating on the storyline. The first half of the film is just tolerable. But it's the second half which tortures you to the core.As I speak about the performances, Pushkar Jog really doesn't know to act in a Hindi film, Despite starting his career as a child actor. Acting in a Marathi Film is different. The Body language, The Accent, The Style etc.But performing in a Hindi Film is another ball game. The Sarcasm comedy slang that he used in this one looks like a (Late) Laxmikant Berde Marathi style. Armeena Khan, yet-Another Pakistani Actress/Model debuts through this film. She is strictly okay. Yes, like every other Pakistani actress, She too has an Expression less face which somehow worked for this film. Why? Because the camera was mostly capturing the one and only Pushkar Jog. Rest of the actors were nothing to talk about.Music of the film is okay, But because of its less promotions, I don't think they will be remembered much. The Editing is bad. The camera work is good. Production values are nothing new to talk about because the film has been shot in London, And trust me, No one showed London as beautiful and erotic as (Late) Yash Chopra used to show.Why Pushkar Jog directed this film? Why this film was made in Hindi? Why does Pushkar Jog's smile reminds you of iconic Marathi director Mahesh Kothare? These are some of my questions which still remained unanswered.If you have a strong and a personal grudge with a person, Show him/her Huff It's Too Much at least once. Huff It's Too Much is a Pushkar Jog style Torture!
