Posted on 13/02/2008 by BollywoodEntertainment.com.au

The couple has been much in news lately for their appearance and chemistry on the reality shows. But now Rakhi Sawant and Abhishek Awasthi may not spend Valentine’s Day together. Reason? They had a heated argument on Monday night following which Rakhi threw her live-in boyfriend out of her house.It so happened that Abhishek had brought DJ Shezwood to Rakhi’s house to discuss a project. Rakhi was talking about her career and the direction when Abhishek interfered to express his opinion. Rakhi didn’t take kindly to his comments and snapped at him. What followed was exchange of harsh words with Rakhi finally asking Abhishek to leave. Abhishek stormed out and went with Shezwood to his house.

Rakhi refuses to comment claiming to be sick, “I am not feeling well and don’t want to say anything.”

However Abhishek was forthcoming, “Yes, we did have a fight. But I am desperately trying to get through to Rakhi. However, she’s not reachable. It was a minor argument that escalated into something big. I also lost my temper and ended up saying things; which, in retrospect, seem harsh. I want to talk to her and make her understand my point of view. I hope that she forgets and forgives whatever happened.”

Well, we hope and wish the same for the lovers!

Accompanying the lady was Chhote Nawab Saif Ali Khan.When Bips had a two hour session with her hair stylist Sapna Bhavnani, she ended up with a conventional bob. The actress apparently wasn’t satisfied with the look when she brooded over it after going home. So Bipasha was back for another two-hour session with Sapna the next day. This time the actress decided to completely hand over the reins to Sapna. The outcome – a trendy, classic bob – as Sapna describes it.

“Bipasha is one of those few people in Bollywood who love to experiment with their hair”, says Sapna Bhavnani. “Also, what works in her favour is the fact that her hair is luscious, thick and silky. Her attitude for style is unlike most of the other actresses who prefer to play safe with long hair. I am hopeful that Bipasha’s bob will become a rage among fans in the coming season.”

Mallika Sherawat – No one dares to make me wait

Posted on 01/02/2008 by BollywoodEntertainment.com.au

Ranvir Shorey should have known it. The entire Bollywood knows Mallika Sherawat’s i-m-the-queen attitude. Making a lady with this attitude wait for three hours is not what one really dares to do. However, Ranvir could not help it and sure he along with the producer had to pay for it.During the shoot of Pritish Nandy Communications’ ‘Ugly and Pagli’, that particular day Mallika arrived on the sets on time as usual. However, Ranvir was delayed because of ill-health. The actress waited for as long as three hours, and by the time Ranvir arrived (after taking his medication) she was in no mood to shoot. She walked out of the sets and poor Ranvir had to shoot his solo scenes that day.

Ranvir however maintains that though Mallika sherawat is a very co-operative and friendly actress, and that was the first time he saw the temperamental side of hers.

In the film, Mallika plays a wacky, outspoken, outlandish girl called Pagli while Ranvir plays an under-confident loser, Ugly.

Mallika Sherawat – Escalating demands?

Posted on 10/01/2008 by BollywoodEntertainment.com.au

Mallika Sherawat is turning out to a nightmare for her producers these days. First, she made it clear to the producers of ‘Welcome’ that she would not promote the film if the promos carried Mallika Arora Khan’s item number. The producers gave in and the promos of ‘Hoth Rasile’ item number went on air much after the release of the film. Then, she walked out of Kundan Shah’s ‘Masquerade’ owing to differences with the director leaving the film’s destiny in mid-air as the producers too quit the film owing to Mallika’s exit. Next, it was the rift with Rangita Nandy on the sets of ‘Ugly Aur Pagli’ that was doing the rounds.The latest buzz that’s doing the rounds is that Mallika Sherawat wants her film ‘Fauj Mein Mauj’ to be re-shot and that too when 70 % of the film has already been canned. It was apparent from the beginning that the gal wasn’t too happy with the film but she continued with it as she was and is the only known star in the film.

Now, the debutant producer, though totally zabbed with this, has given in to Mallika’s demands to re-shoot the entire film. Mallika states that she has asked this as she is unhappy with the way she looks in the film. This way, Madamme Mallika will not be able to run for long, coz, this is Bollywood where ‘I m the best’ attitude applies for nobody except SRK.
