Alia Bhatt voted fastest growing female star, reveals her success mantra

 Celebrities
Feb 112018
 

Topping list of fastest growing stars in Bollywood, Alia Bhatt credits her offbeat movie choices for audiences’ love; Taapsee Pannu comes second

Alia Bhatt

From selecting movies that steer clear of the run-of-the-mill to making their voice heard on social media, Alia Bhatt, Anushka Sharma and Taapsee Pannu are writing their own rules in an industry that is believed to be a tough place, more so for women. Not surprising then that the trio emerged the ‘fastest growing female stars’ in an annual research conducted by Ormax, a company acknowledged as pioneers of film research in India. The study saw a star’s ascent being determined on the basis of three parameters – their films released last year, their upcoming slate of projects and their growth on social media.

Taapsee Pannu

Thrilled about topping the list, Bhatt says that her passion for films is what prompts her to explore complex characters on screen. “My characters are what I will leave behind in life. My goal is to make memorable movies and create unforgettable characters,” she says.

Anushka Sharma

Point out how her popularity on the Internet too plays a role in her bagging the top spot and she says that when it comes to her social media accounts, she is “just a regular girl having fun”. “I am more active on Instagram and it is filled with pictures of my cat. I give them [her followers] a glimpse of my life. But I also try to make sure that if I am saying things, it should serve some purpose. I want to have a distinct voice of my own.”

Pannu ranks second on the list courtesy a commercial success in Judwaa 2 last year. Her ‘call a spade a spade’ attitude too resonates with her fans. Stating that such acceptance from the audience gives a boost to an outsider like her, she says, “[It’s encouraging] for someone like me who did not know anyone in the film industry, had no multi-film deals with studios or any godfather to fall back on. Wherever I am today is because of my audience and that’s what pushes me to do better.”

Even before rumours of her liking for ‘Brahmastra’ co-star Ranbir Kapoor manage to gather steam, it appears that Alia Bhatt has found love elsewhere.

SRK Just Did Something Funny Yet Bizarre On Instagram & We Need Your Help In Decoding It

 Celebrities
Feb 112018
 

On days when Bollywood’s Badshah, Shah Rukh Khan is not busy giving romance lessons to the world or asking the gorgeous Cate Blanchett for a selfie at Davos, he serves visual treat on a platter called Instagram for all his fans to gorge on.

But, if it’s a Sunday and he has nothing to do just like most of us, then his Instagram account can turn into an enigma code or the cryptic codes from ‘The Matrix’, making it difficult for us to decipher what he truly means.

shah rukh khan instagramInstagram

Well, maybe we exaggerated a bit, but after watching this video, we are sure you are going to feel the same way as we do – confused to an extent where we don’t know how to react, so we like the post, tag our friends and leave it to their imagination to decode what exactly it was.

In the video, SRK is seen wearing a tuxedo, his cool dark glasses and hair slicked back as he gears up to give a special surprise to his fans. Before we could understand what was happening, he dunked his face right inside the water, and played a couple of his famous dialogues.

This didn’t go as planned…but on a lazy Sunday afternoon, with my limited floatation expertise..this is the best I could do! Judge nahi karna, feel karna…Thx.

A post shared by Shah Rukh Khan (@iamsrk) on Feb 11, 2018 at 2:42am PST

Well, like he said in the caption of the post, “Judge nahi karna, feel karna.” So we’ll leave it at that and ask you guys to take charge and help us figuring out in what he was doing.

Kim Cattrall blasts Sarah Jessica Parkar

 Celebrities
Feb 112018
 

Actress Kim Cattrall vented her anger at former “Sex and the City” co-star Sarah Jessica Parker, saying she was not her friend

kim cattrall

Actress Kim Cattrall vented her anger at former “Sex and the City” co-star Sarah Jessica Parker, saying she was not her friend.

The two had reportedly been at odds since filming the show together, with the demise of any prospects for a third “Sex and the City” film bringing the animosity back to the surface, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

Cattrall took to Instangram to vent her anger on Saturday. 

“I don’t need your love or support at this tragic time Sarah Jessica Parker,” she posted.

In the caption, she called Parker a “hypocrite” and “cruel”. 

She said: “Let me make this very clear. (If I haven’t already) You are not my family. You are not my friend. So I’m writing to tell you one last time to stop exploiting our tragedy in order to restore your ‘nice girl’ persona.”

According to hollywoodreporter.com, Cattrall was likely referring to the recent death of her brother Chris, which Parker discussed at the Paley Centre for media’s “An Evening With the Cast of Divorce” in New York on Thursday. 

Parker had also left a message of condolence on Cattrall’s Instagram post announcing her brother’s passing, as had Cynthia Nixon, one of Cattrall and Parker’s other “Sex and the City” co-stars

On Instagram, Cattrall also linked to a New York Post article from October entitled “Inside the mean-girls culture that destroyed ‘Sex and the City'”.

In the article, a clique that excluded Cattrall is described as having been formed on the set of “Sex and the City” particularly after creator and producer Darren Star left and Parker’s friend Michael Patrick King took over, which led to Cattrall’s reluctance to participate in the first “Sex and the City” film.

'Pad Man' not released yet in Pakistan

 Celebrities

Indian actor Akshay Kumar’s “Pad Man”, a film highlighting awareness on menstrual hygiene, has not yet been released in Pakistan

padman look

Indian actor Akshay Kumar’s “Pad Man”, a film highlighting awareness on menstrual hygiene, has not yet been released in Pakistan. But a senior official says it has not been denied a No Objection Certificate (NOC) for import into Pakistan.

“Pad Man” tells a story of a Arunachalam Muruganantham’s journey to make affordable sanitary napkins. A section of the media have said that it has been banned in Pakistan due to its sensitive subject. 

But Pakistan Censor Board chief Mobashir Hasan says the decision on NOC was yet to be taken as the film had not yet been “pre-viewed by the Central Board of Film Censors”.

A statement, posted on Hasan’s Twitter account and shared with IANS via a messaging app, read: “The decision to issue an NOC by the Ministry of Information Broadcasting National History and Literary Heritage is yet to be taken on the release of a foreign feature film ‘Pad Man’ as the film has not yet been pre-viewed by the … Censors.”

A Pakistani media report said Pakistani film importers have come under attack over the Akshay Kumar-starrer on grounds of ruining Islamic traditions, history and culture. 

Hasan then said: “The decision to grant NOC to the subject film will be based on the merit and criteria of the … Censors, not vexatious, false and irresponsible political motives being created on various media platforms on the back of the film. 

“It is advisable to maintain principles of integrity whilst making statements on any issues… Good values are the foundation upon which we will build a prosperous Pakistan, not upon a decision of releasing a solitary film,” he added. 

Directed by R. Balki, “Pad Man” is based on a short story from Twinkle Khanna’s book “The Legend Of Lakshmi Prasad”. It released in India, Russia, Ivory Coast and Iraq on Friday.

Despite completing a few months already, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s wedding till date remains the much talked about and the most happening event from last year. Such was the suspense, thrill and excitement around the wedding that people were clueless even on the D-day, wondering if it’s really happening.

Virat Anushka weddingInstagram

We have to applaud the two for managing to stir their fans’ hearts with their secret wedding at Tuscany in Italy on December 11, away from the buzz hovering around them. However, Italy wasn’t the only talking point of their wedding, neither were the two larger-than-life reception parties the couple hosted in Delhi and Mumbai for their friends and family members.

Virat anushka receptionInstagram

Despite having the best of both worlds in attendance, Virat and Anushka or Virushka, were the life of their own party, just how they were the life of every other party they attended together. Virat and Anushka are like live wires, who ignite sparks wherever they go, and just when we thought that we have seen enough already, we got our hands on this video, where the two are seen dancing like there’s no tomorrow. 

After they flaunted their killer dance moves at Sagarika Ghatge and Zaheer Khan’s wedding, there were no doubts that they will set their reception’s dance floor on fire and they did exactly that. So, here’s a throwback video of them grooving at a Punjabi number on the dance floor.

After living their fairy tale wedding, the couple is back to their respective jobs. While Virat is smashing hits against the South Africa team in the ongoing India vs SA ODIs; Anushka is all set to stun us all with her stellar performances in upcoming movies ‘Pari’ and ‘Zero’.
