Bollywood's Mallika Sherawat Conquers Hollywood

Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat is continuing her assault on Hollywood, and it looks like she's winning.

Friday (August 14) Mallika will be getting an honor that no other Bollywood star has received.
Because of her contributions to the Hollywood film industry and charities, she will be made an honorary citizen of Los Angeles by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
Also in attendance at the ceremony will be the former Mayor Richard Riordan, Council member Jose Huizar and the Los Angeles City Council.

And according to rumors, Mallika is considering getting her body insured the way pro footballer Cristiano Ronaldo got his legs insured.

Mallika made quite a smash at the premiere of Quentin Tarantino's new movie.
Her outfit got as much attention as she did.
And she got quite a lot, talking to not only Tarantino, but Brett Ratner and others as well.
Her dress for the premiere has been pretty much universally slammed by online fashion sources.
Me?
Actually I kinda liked it.
Realize of course I grew up reading comics, and the dress reminded me of the femme fatale/super villainess' from the comics.
When I saw the pic of her and Brett Ratner (who made X-Men: The Last Stand) I thought " If he does another X-Men movie, there's his Black Queen!"

From what I saw, Quentin looked enamored with Mallika.
Could we be seeing her in an upcoming Tarantino movie perhaps?
Maybe we should wait and see how Hisss does first.

Chandni Chowk to China may have not done very well at the box office in India, but the film has netted Deepika Padukone a lot of good press in China.
Deepika has been nominated for Best Actress at the 33rd Hong Kong International Film Festival.
She is the first Indian actress to ever get this honor.

Chandni Chowk to China starred Akshay Kumar and Deepika Padukone in the lead roles with Hindi cinema veteran Mithun Chakraborty and Hong Kong action cinema veteran Gordon Liu in supporting roles.
The film was shot in China and in Bangkok, Thailand and it was distributed in the U.S. and co-produced by Warner Bros.
It was Warner Bros. first Hindi film.

The film got negative reviews by critics, but what struck me as unusual was that the fim was reviewed in the US by USA Today, Newsday, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Entertainment Weekly and the Chicago Tribune.
To me this testifies to the widening appeal of Bollywood films.

Sonam Kapoor News

Sonam Kapoor was born on June 9, 1985 in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
She is an Indian actress who appears in Bollywood movies.

Considered by many to be a talented and upcoming actress, Sonam may have been in the right place at the right time.
She appeared with Abhishek Bachchan in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Delhi-6.
The movie was released on February 20, 2009 and did well at the box office, but the film got generally mixed reception from the Indian critics.
However, after the Oscar performance of the Mumbai-set "Slumdog Millionaire" world critics have gotten behind the movie.
The Bollywood film was praised by the Los Angeles Times and the Village Voice in New York City.
Of course it hasn't hurt that the movies music was composed by Oscar winner A.R. Rahman.
And even better is the fact that Sonam's father Anil Kapoor was also in Slumdog Millionaire.

Sonam is now set to star in Anil Kapoor’s newest production, ‘Ayesha’, an adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel ‘Emma’.

http://www.hindu.com/thehindu/holnus/009200901230921.htm

Art Imitates Life for Kareena Kapoor

Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor was in Philadelphia shooting an untitled Renzil D'Silva project with Saif Ali Khan and Karan Johar when the devastating atacks in Mumbai happened.
As often occurs, art imitated life for Kareena, but in a horrifying way.
Again, my thoughts and prayers are with those affected by this tragedy.


Kareena shoots a film based on terror in these hard times
When the heinous terror strike hit Mumbai, little did Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor know that terrorism would take a toll on the city when she would be away shooting for a similar terror-related film in Philadelphia.
On hearing the news of the attack, a worried Kareena spent her valuable time in the US, making anxious calls back home. The actress had been shooting for some horrifying terrorism scenes the previous day, for Karan Johar's new film.

Bollywood actress Sushmita Sen plans autobiography

Bollywood actress Sushmita Sen has decided to write an autobiography with the tentative title “The Butterfly.”

A former Miss Universe, Sen said she has already begun writing chapters, a newspaper reported Wednesday.

She said the inspiration for the title came from one of her favourite sayings — “what the world calls the end of a caterpillar’s life, God calls a butterfly.”

“I have written some portions of it,” The Times of India newspaper quoted Sen saying. “And yes, the working title is called ‘The Butterfly.’”

A model-turned-actress, Sen was crowned Miss Universe in 1994 and has since acted in 30 Hindi-language movies.

Sen plays a widow in an updated version of a Bollywood classic “Sholay,” or “Embers,” to be released this week.

She played a rock star in her last film, “Zindagi Rocks,” or “Life Rocks,” and a prostitute in an earlier movie “Chingari,” which also translates to “Embers” in Hindi.

Hindi film biggies like Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra have said no to Hollywood offers. BT finds out why

Until recently, India's only export to Hollywood was Aishwarya Rai. Today, Hollywood's calling even smaller names like Koena Mitra, Celina Jaitley and Randeep Hooda to give their films an Indian twist.

But the charm of the west has waned considerably in the last few years for most desi stars. And it's not just the biggies like Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan; even Celina Jaitley has said no to Hollywood.

Hrithik's filmmaker father Rakesh Roshan says the Hollywood role didn't excite Hrithik enough. "Hrithik was offered a role in Pink Panther 2. The role was meaty, but he didn't like the script very much.
