South India Actress Asin upset on next film assignment
After registering a super hit on her debut, Asin would expect her next film to create the same magic. But, she is left utterly disappointed after seeing the promos of 'London Dreams', her second film with Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan in the lead.
The promos of the film show her in just one shot while Salman and Ajay have a larger share of it. Now, a disappointed Asin makes it a point to let producer-director Vipul Shah know about her displeasure.
"When Asin learnt that she was hardly a part of the first theatrical promo of the film, she spoke to Vipul. Asin is very eager to see the response of the audience, especially since this will be her first release after Ghajini which was the biggest hit of last year. However, she was very disappointed with the promos. Vipul explained to her that since it is the story of two friends, he needed to have more of Salman and Ajay in the first promo. However, Asin was far from convinced and is sulking," a Mumbai daily quoted a source as saying.
When Vipul Shah was contacted by the daily, he clarified that Asin was not sidelined and expressed hope that other promos of the film would set things fine. "All I want to say is that this is just the first teaser of the film. Please don't be in a hurry to judge anybody's importance and let me say clearly that Asin is a very important part of my film. Let some other promos release and everything will be fine. I am aware that this is Asin's first release after 'Ghajini' and the expectations are huge. Let me assure everybody, especially fans of Asin, that they won’t be disappointed."

Bollywood Actress shilpa shetty is upset about the marriage.
Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty is upset over news that she is set to tie the knot with London-based businessman Raj Kundra by the year end. She clarifies that she isn't getting married this year.
"I've said before, I will make an official announcement the day my parents decide on my marriage date and I promise the press will have at least a month to celebrate the announcement. So to set the record straight, no I'm not getting married this year. Yes, I am looking at next year, but date not decided," said Shilpa posted on her blog www.shilpashettylive.com/blog/.
A British newspaper reported Thursday that the actress would be getting married between September and December in Britain after her father, Surendra Shetty, wrote so in an application to an Indian court.
But Shilpa has slammed the news. "I am sick and tired of people calling me to clarify after they've put it as breaking news on some channels and wasted reams of paper on concocted news articles," she said.
Shilpa is also upset over the leakage of the details her father gave to the court to acquire his passport. "My poor dad is already having a tough time every time he has to travel abroad and has to apply for his passport, and as alway it's harrowing enough for him to go back and forth every time for his passport...," she said.
Surendra Shetty's passport was reportedly confiscated after he was charged with threatening a business associate he claimed owed money to his daughter. Since then, he and his wife Sunanda have only been able to travel overseas with the court's permission, which is why he applied for the passport on the alleged pretext of Shilpa's wedding.
"My dad's 67 and ageing, please let the poor man live in peace and dignity, it's annoying. I request the press to report responsibly and not make any baseless assumptions," stated Shipa.

Jail, will have Sayali Bhagat grooving in a setting very reminiscent of his Chandni Bar.
Madhur Bhandarkar may be fixated with everything that is ‘real’, but that doesn’t mean he won’t incorporate an item song into his film if required. His upcoming release, Jail, will have Sayali Bhagat grooving in a setting very reminiscent of his Chandni Bar.
"The song is titled Bareli ka bazaar and has a beer bar setting to it,” said the director. “I have shot the number in a completely real-life manner, just like Chandni Bar was shot. Since the setting is similar, everything from the look and ambience to the background had to appear real."
But Bhandarkar insists that the song has not been inserted merely as a crowd puller. "The song in Jail is pretty integral to the script," said Bhandarkar. "I have never infused a song in any film of mine just for the sake of it. I have always believed in a song taking the story forward. The same is the case with Bareli ka bazaar and audiences will see for themselves that it is an integral part of the film."
Composed by Bhandarkar's favourite, Shamir Tandon (who composed for Traffic Signal, Corporate and Page 3), Bareli ka bazaar is sung by Sonu Kakkar.
This is not the first time that Bhagat has done an item number. After making her debut with the box office flop, The Train (2007), she was seen in Halla Bol (2008), in which she gyrated to the tune of Is pal ki soch.
Bhagat had to face flak over her weight after the release of Paying Guests, but she has worked hard to get in shape for Jail. "She has lost a lot of weight for the film and is looking very different," said Bhandarkar. "Her entire look has been changed for the song, which has an authentic Indian appeal to it. She has turned out to be stunner in the film and is looking great in her slim and trim avatar."
With Ganesh Acharya choreographing song, it is high on energy. "It was great to see the way Sayali worked so hard for her guest appearance in the film," said Bhandarkar.
“She rehearsed for days to get the steps perfect and would be seen slogging for four to five hours at stretch. I am extremely happy with the results and I am sure that Bareli ka bazaar would be one of the highlight numbers of the season once Jail releases."
Jail, starring Neil Nitin Mukesh, Mugdha Godse, Majoj Bajpai and Arya Babbar, is aiming at an October 23 release.

Kourtney Kardashian’s attempts to keep the name of her baby’s dad
Kourtney Kardashian’s attempts to keep the name of her baby’s dad from leaking may have been blown after her long-time on-and-off beau was reported to be the father of the unborn child.
The American reality TV star, who is pregnant with her first kid, has been keeping the lid on who is the real daddy so that the revelation could be made on the next season of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."
But sources claimed her beau Scott Disick, with whom she temporarily split last season, is the baby’s father. "They are very sweet. They are cute and love to cuddle. Scott is more loyal than ever, and they are in love," Fox News quoted an insider as saying.
"There will definitely be a Kardashian wedding this year and a new baby. Her family is very, very excited for Kourt, and it will all be added to their shows," the insider added.
Kourtney's rep did not comment on the issue.
