Neha says ‘No’ to lovemaking scenes

New Delhi: While B-Town is getting hotter and hotter every passing day, newbie Neha Sharma refuses to follow the trend.

The actress who recently shot hot and steamy scenes with her co-star Vivek Oberoi for upcoming film, 'Jayantabhai Ki Luv Story'. But now, 'Crook' star has made it clear that these intimate scenes will be her first and last on-screen.

The 25-year-old actress said she will not do a lovemaking scene in the future as she is not comfortable shedding off her clothes.

"It is not that elaborate... Yes there is a certain amount of intimacy because the script required it but I was not comfortable. I will not do it again, it pushes me out of my comfort zone which I don't like," said Neha.

The actress plays the role of a middle class girl named Simran, who moves to Mumbai to fulfil her dreams, while Vivek plays the role of a gangster.

The romantic movie is helmed by debutante director Vinnil Markan and will hit the theatres this Friday.

This is Neha's fourth Bollywood movie after 'Crook', 'Teri Meri Kahaani' and adult comedy 'Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum'.

And the actress said it has been learning experience in the industry since she does not come from a filmy background.

"You need to have a lot of patience to survive in this industry. If you are not from a filmy background, there is a lot of struggle with every film and getting new offers. Also you don't get the kind of movies you want to work in, so you have to be careful with your choice. Sometimes the wait is a bit too long but I am confident things will work out for me," the actress said.

Kamal, Sridevi to star together after 30 yrs

New Delhi: Veteran actors Kamal Haasan and Sridevi will share the screen after a long gap of 30 years. Their last film together, Sadma (1983) was a hit at the box office. Industry sources say that Haasan will write the script for the film.

“Over the years, several filmmakers have wanted to cast them together. Unfortunately, it never happened. After Sridevi made her comeback in Gauri Shinde's English Vinglish, Haasan has now taken things into his own hands," said a source. Haasan confirmed the news and said, "Yes, I want to work with Sridevi. I am writing a script for her so that both of us can act in the film."

Apparently, the English Vinglish star is aware about Haasan's plans. One of her friends said, “She knows about this script. In fact when Haasan was in Mumbai recently, he informed Sridevi about it. She is looking forward to the film."

Haasan recently stormed the box office with his latest release, Vishwaroopam, a Rs 90 cr film which is said to have done a business of over Rs 120 cr in just four days. Earlier, there were reports that a two week ban on the film would cause a huge loss to the actor-producer.

Haasan also revealed that a sequel of Vishwaroopam is on cards and the film is expected to release this year. Speaking to reporters at a press meet, Haasan said that he would ensure that there are no delays in the release of the new film as he has been making preparations in right earnestness.

After a hiatus of 15 years, Sridevi recently made a comeback to the silver screen with English Vinglish, which was not only a box office success but also earned critical acclaim.

Mumbai: After winning critical acclaim for her roles in Dev D, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, Paan Singh Tomar, actress Mahie Gill says she is confused about her standing in Bollywood as new roles are not coming her way.

"I don't know if I have cemented my position in the industry. Like when I go out, industry people tell me I am good and an intelligent actress. But people only talk and don't give me work. So I fail to understand as to what they are telling is truth or not," said Mahie.

The 37-year-old actress, who essayed Paro in Dev D, a beghum in Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster and a small town wife in Paan Singh Tomar says she is happy that this genre too is seeing commercial success.

According to Mahie, she stumbled upon out-of-box roles by chance.

"People think I am an intelligent actress and they think of giving me those kinds of roles. I am not an intelligent actress... it just happened," she said.

Sallu to launch Shera's son

Mumbai: Superstar Salman Khan, who has given a break to many newcomers in Bollywood, now intends to launch his bodyguard Shera's son in the film world.

Salman had launched Shera in films with a song-and-dance sequence in the title track of his film 'Bodyguard'. Shera appeared in the song alongside the 47-year-old actor and Katrina Kaif.

Now gossip mills are abuzz that Salman is likely to launch Shera's son in Bollywood.

Salman Khan In News Again

Bollywood’s heartthrob and a very dedicated body builder, Salman Khan a.k.a Sallu Bhai is in the news again. And this time its for so many reasons!

Firstly its about his never-ending, decade long, rash driving case. We hear that while Salman was driving, he was quite aware of the consequences his rash driving could lead to. Smashing into a bakery, killing one person and injuring four others is what he had in his mind? Yeah Right!! Who would ever do something like that if they were aware of the consequences?

Well, the magistrate thinks otherwise and is charging Salman under IPC Section 304 part II (culpable homicide not amounting to murder). Poor Salman if convicted can land up in jail to a maximum sentence of 10 years! When questioned Salman’s lawyer about the charges he said “The alleged incident had taken place at mid-night, when it was extremely dark and many people had gathered at the scene of the accident. Therefore, prima-facie it is amply clear that there was absence of any motive or intention to kill someone. The act as alleged is not an act of culpable homicide, but an unfortunate incident, beyond control of accused, such as an act of God.”

Apart from all this tension, we hear this Salman will soon be signing a 500 crore deal with Star Network. According to the contract Star Network will now have the exclusive satellite rights to broadcast all the films featuring Salman that are to be released from January 2013 to December 2017
