Katrina has overpowered other actresses: Shakti Kapoor

Katrina Kaif is being showered with praise for her Chikni Chameli item number in Agneepath and Shakti Kapoor says it is her hard work that has helped her reach this position in the industry.

"To come to this situation of power as an actor requires hard work and the same goes for Katrina. Look at her, a girl coming from London and she has overpowered all the other heroines in the country. It's only her hard work and I wish her all the best," Shakti said here at an event.

Shakti, 59, was recently seen in Bigg Boss 5 and his last film was Bin Bulaye Baraati.

Aamir Khan beats SRK with 90 crore deal

Bollywood's Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan has grabbed a great deal recently. Reportedly, Aamir's upcoming movie Talaash has been sold to Reliance for Rs 90 crore.

If we recall Shahrukh Khan's Don 2 was sold at Rs 80 crores. But Aamir's Talaash beats SRK's Don 2 by a margin of Rs 10 crore. The deal between producer Excel Entertainment and Reliance was finalised last week.

Though the amount seems too huge, trade analyst Amod Mehra felt it was a reasonable amount. The movie is a psychological thriller that will be featuring Aamir Khan, Rani Mukherjee and Kareena Kapoor in the pivotal roles.

Katrina Kaif turns action queen for Salman Khan

Bollywood's ex love birds Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif is all set for some action for their upcoming movie Ek Tha Tiger. Reports suggest that Katrina and Salman are getting trained for performing the best stunts under the ace Hollywood action director Conrad Palmisano.

As per reports, Katrina has been doing all the dangerous stunts like free-falls and mid air fights with Salman. Kats told a daily newspaper, "Its scary but it is also great fun. I have only done very delicate feminine role till now. This is a new challenge for me and I guess that?s what I am looking for at this stage of my career."

Well, now we wish to see the couple doing some fine stunts in the film.

Kat to romance Kamal Hassan in Southern film

After dominating Bollywood, it seems Katrina Kaif has set her eyes on Southern film industry as she is all geared up to romance Kamal Hassan in 'Thalaivan Irukiran', according to grapevine.

The 27-year-old was apparently very keen to attach herself with the project, which might also feature Tamil film star Ajith.

The movie will be produced by Aascar Ravichandran.

However, this is not the only film that would keep the former model busy in Southern film industry, as she might even play South's legendary actor Rajinikanth's love interest in his daughter Soundanarya's film

Salman Khan@46: The ageless entertainer

Not many people complained when the makers of 'Ek Tha Tiger' postponed the release of the film to Eid, 2012 instead of previously scheduled June 1 premier. Salman Khan's loyal fan base couldn?t ask for a better Eid celebration.

Riding on the success waves of 'Wanted', 'Dabangg', 'Ready' and 'Bodyguard', the actor will return to the silver screen with Kabir Khan's 'Ek Tha Tiger'.

The year 2011 has been phenomenal for Salman Khan who has emerged as the new Rajinikanth of the Hindi cinema. Internet is the best place to check his popularity. The unofficial blogs and websites run by his fans get more hits than prominent film websites. Fake 'Being Human' t-shirt comment made by Khan on Bigg Boss gets more publicity than Sunny Leone's pole dancing.

This year has raised Salman's status from an ultra hero to a superhero. Probably Rajinikanth is the only other actor alive at this time who could have turned films like 'Ready' and 'Bodyguard' into such hugely successful ventures.

The Khan trinity still rules the game and they don't look to leave the arena any time soon. Among themselves, Shah Rukh and Aamir are more media friendly and easily available, which give them an edge over Salman, but the niche fan base tilts the race in favour of Salman. These are the people who keep mum during a debate about meaningful cinema but are the first ones to pull out their wallets whenever a 'Ready' or a 'Bodyguard' releases.

Salman is not meant for any happy-go-lucky image. The new age audiences might have forgotten the black buck case or the footpath case but the references made by 24 hour media inspire them to think Salman as a brutal but fun loving macho man.

On the other hand, the very same opinion leaders report about Salman's philanthropic deeds and the audiences get confused about what stand to take.

Finally the outcome creates a persona which is short tempered and sadist but has a golden heart. The common youth, developed along with a consumerist society, starts to identify with this image simply because of the immense mental pressure he enjoys every day.

There is either a family or a business venture to support other actors of his age but Salman doesn't have any of the two privileges. This compels the actor to look for a steady relationship which invariably ends up in a disaster. It's the good luck that has made him one of the most bankable actors of Bollywood because film wise he has not experimented much, neither he has shown the courage to take up challenging tasks.

Critics are not tired of portraying Salman as someone who doesn't know how to act but this tenderness is his USP. Dabangg's spontaneous dancing was any day catchier than sophisticated dancing skills displayed by other actors.

His fans defend Salman in the name of entertainment. For them, Khan is someone who acts for pure entertainment. Further many newcomers praise him for the unconditional help he offers. This also establishes his image of an angry young man trapped in a big bad film world.

His emotional outbursts in 'Tere Naam' appeared to describe his inner state. His reluctance to marry gives fodder for thought but most importantly it gives female fans a reason to feel good about. It may sound dim-witted but his single status fetches acceptance for the actor in certain quarters despite a bad image.

The actor is turning 46 on December 27 but the market still refuses to believe it. Salman will remain the moody, stylish and restless soul in coming months but who cares till he keeps entertaining the fans.

Katrina Kaif To Kick Butt?Hollywood Style!

Fans of Katrina Kaif, who are used to see her playing the delicate darling in almost all her movies, can now gear up for a major surprise. Sources claim that the Kashmiri-British actress, known for her Barbie doll image, will be soon performing hard core action and stunt sequences in forthcoming spy thriller Ek Tha Tiger.

This is not all?Buzz has it that Hollywood action director Conrad Palmisano, who has worked on super-hit Hollywood projects like 'Transformers' and Nicolas Cage starrer 'Seeking Justice' has been roped in to train Kaif. A source was quoted to have said, "Katrina is really pushing herself to perform stunts that are generally done by male actors. She has been doing free-falls and mid-air fights with Salman."

Talking about her stunts that she will be performing in the Kabir Khan helmed flick, Katrina Kaif was quoted to have said, "It's scary. But it is also great fun. I have done only delicate and feminine roles till now. This is a new challenge for me. I guess that's what I am looking for at this stage of my career."

We can't help but wonder if hanging out with the Dabangg Salman Khan during the shooting inspired Katrina to adopt an action packed image?

Cleanse and shine

Cleanse, tone, moisturise ? it?s the three-step skin care ritual that every celebrity swears by, from Katrina Kaif to Priyanka Chopra and Bipasha Basu. The process takes just a few minutes, but experts say, it?s the secret to a healthy, glowing skin.

?I can?t stress enough the importance of cleansing, toning and moisturising your skin. Not only in the morning, but also before going to bed at night,? says celebrity makeup artist Anu Mehra. ?Following this routine regularly will result in younger, fresher skin that has a healthy glow. At the end of the day, your facewash just can?t handle waterproof mascara, transfer-resistant lipstick and long-wear foundation. A good makeup remover should do the trick, however.

How to cleanse
Soften a facial cotton pad with a few drops of remover and gently wipe away the mascara, from root to tip. Keeping your eyes closed, swipe the pad along the lower eyelid, starting from the inside out. Using a clean cotton pad, wipe away lipstick and foundation from the face and neck. Anu says, ?I always recommend that you use a cleanser even if you don?t wear makeup because it unclogs the pores and removes dirt, sweat, dead skin cells and other impurities that have accumulated during the day.? The expert adds, ?One should always be gentle with the sensitive under-eye area. One good tip for removing stubborn eye makeup is to use a drop of baby oil.?

Tips for toning
After cleansing, dab on a toner that suits your skin type, focussing on the forehead, nose and chin. Avoid the delicate eye and mouth areas, which can dry out with the use of a toner. ?This intermediate step is to even out the skin and reduce the appearance of pores. And finally, one must moisturise even at night to hydrate the skin and restore the moisture lost during the day? explains Anu. No matter what your skin type or beauty habits, the CTM ritual should be at the core of your daily skin care routine for a gorgeous skin.

Why we love Katrina Kaif

She doesn't grapple with her diction anymore. She practises Kathak seven hours a day to brush up her dancing. She is being compared with Madhuri Dixit for her chikni Lavani thrusts. And only a few years ago, Katrina was just another British import trying her luck in B-Town.

Hard work, modesty and a positive attitude have earned this pretty girl her stripes. And even after being voted Asia's sexiest woman thrice in a row, she hasn't rested on her laurels.

That's what we call smart because beauty is only skin deep. Brains, on the other hand, create legends. Katrina is on the same road.

Salman to play Dhoni?

Mahesh Manjrekar's plan to remake his Marathi film Shikshanachya Aaicha Gho in Hindi with Salman Khan is now getting an unexpected push.

Khan, who has been putting off the Hindi version of Manjrekar's film for some time, has now suddenly decided to give the film immediate time. According to sources, this is because Prakash Raj's soon-to-be-released Tamil film Dhoni, is based on Manjrekar's film.

When contacted, Manjrekar admitted to the news, adding in jest. "The current trend is that of Southern remakes in Hindi. So before someone in Bollywood buys the rights of Prakash's Dhoni, which is a remake of my Marathi film, I will make the film with Salman, as planned."

Raj's film is about the academic pressure faced by a teenage boy interested in cricket. Manjrekar says he gladly gave the rights for a Tamil remake of his film.

He said, "Prakash Raj is a friend. When he told me he wants to direct a Tamil version of my film, I readily agreed. The film has a strong message about our education system and I am only too happy to spread it."
