The Only Indian Actor To Have Met Barack Obama

Image
Mallika Sherawat is being hounded for quotes on the Big O. On Obama, that is (what did you imagine?). The saucy actress, who sashayed into suburban Mumbai recently to gyrate and jive to a dance number for Double Dhamaal at Mehboob Studios was in her element… acerbic and witty and candid… as usual. Swift to capitalise on the Obama meetings (two that is, including one in the White House!), the actress is a mite peeved at the reactions that she’s been inspiring and saddened a wee that her naysayers are trying to dilute her achievement. Blasts Sherawat in a tabloid quote, "I’m the only Indian actor to have met Barack Obama, the President of the United States and the most powerful man on earth. I invited him to the premiere of my movie Love, Barack and he’s accepted it. Instead of celebrating the fact that an Indian has made it big, people are trying to pull me down!" Trust Sherawat to come up with quotes that are immensely worthy of headlines in periodicals. Li...

Kareena Kapoor Is Still Not Comfortable With Bikini

Image
The only thing worth remembering in Tashan (2008) was Kareena Kapoor sizzling in a bikini but she is still not comfortable with the ’sexy’ tag. The actor admits that she was definitely embarrassed recently during a shoot of Bodyguard on a college campus, when some young girls sent her notes saying they found her sexy. She prefers being called glamorous and says being glam comes naturally to her. Thin is ’in’ but the actor, who made size zero famous three years ago, would rather be vulnerable and voluptuous now. "I’m still slim but no longer stick-thin and that works better for me. Let the other heroines lose weight now since I’ve decided I’m not going to be wearing a bikini on screen ever again," insists Kapoor, who has been voted Bollywood’s sexiest heroine by a leading film glossy, owned by media baron Nari Hira. The focus today is on performance-driven roles and her look will be differently sensual in the five films she is cur...

Salman Khan Called For A Ban To The Word 'Bollywood'

Image
Salman Khan has grabbed the entire Indian movie industry’s attention after he called for a ban to the word ’Bollywood’, which is used to refer to the Hindi film industry, a word which is an imitation of Hollywood used to mention the American movie industry. Not just Bollywood, the South Indian movie industries are called Kollywood, Tollywood, Mollywood and Sandalwood, all apparently derived from Hollywood and Bollywood. Hollywood by itself has nothing to do with movies, except that Hollywood, a locality in Los Angeles, was where the early movie studios were housed. The first mention of the word ’wood’ with a film industry in India,was Tollywood, the Bengali film industry based in Tollygunge. After the Bombay film industry overtook its Bengali counterpart in the 70s, they too followed suit and coined the word Bollywood, which was a blend of the word Bombay and wood. The other movie industries in India followed the naming practice by coining the word with the...
