Indian Actress Tamannaah

This is not the first entry that I have done on Tamannaah.

Tamannaah is an Indian actress that usually works in Telugu and Tamil films, though she has done a few Hindi as well.

Neha Dhupia "Bollywood Hero" Updates

Back in May I posted an entry about Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia being in an upcoming comedy miniseries titled "Bollywood Hero" for the Independent Film Channel starring Chris Kattan (Corky Romano).
Well from the looks of it, everyone else has caught up and announced it in the past few days...LOL

But the update part of this is that

1. Neha's character will be called "Lalima", and as Neha puts it herself, "My character is overbearing, typical Bollywood heroine who is known more for controversies than her acting skills."
"overbearing, typical Bollywood heroine"...that might not set too well with other Bollywood actresses!

2. The mini series will have cameos by Keanu Reeves and Drew Barrymore.

3. The show will be aired on IFC, an independent film channel from August 6 onwards.

And riding the hopefully good reviews of the mini series, Neha will have six movies coming out, "Paying Guest", "Pappu Can't Dance Sala", "Raftaar","Raat gayi baat gayi", "I'm 24" and "De Dhanadhan".

Aishwarya Rai News

A lot of people talk about family values, but Aishwarya Rai not only talks the talk, but she walks the walk.
The beautiful Bollywood actress was set to recieve the ‘Officer Dan Ordre Des Arts Et Des Lettres’(officer of the order of arts and letters) from the French government.
But Aishwarya's father was ill and Aishwarya asked the French goverment to post-pone the ceremony until he was well.
She wanted her entire family there for the ceremony.
Now that her father is well enough, she has informed the French authorities to go ahead with it.
To understand the gravity of what Aishwarya did, you have to understand that there is only one higher French civilan honour to receive, the Legion d’honour.
And in 2007, the Officer Dan Ordre Des Arts Et Des Lettres was bestowed upon Shahrukh Khan.

Riya Sen News

Bollywood actress Riya Sen has raised a few eyebrows lately by saying that she needed to lose weight.
The normally size zero actress says shes gained a few pounds lately.

Despite that, Riya has been named the brand ambassador for the IPL (Indian Premier League) website.

Maybe that will help, because by all accounts, this lovely actresses' career is not going anywhere.
Which is surprising considering she comes from a celebrity family.
Her grandmother Suchitra Sen is one of the greatest Bengali actresses of Bengali films.
Her mother Moon Moon Sen was also an actress.

Bipasha Basu at the 15th Nokia Star Screen Awards

Bipasha Basu was at the 15th Nokia Star Screen Awards.
But she didn't seem to have a very good time.
She was supposed to do her Lucky Boy act from Bachna Ae Haseeno.
Bipasha was all geared up and ready to go until the Sajid Khan-Ashutosh Gowariker incident delayed the awards ceremony by 20 to 25 minutes.
That threw the whole production behind over an hour, and she was in no mood to go on with the act, so she changed her attire and removed her make up.
The organizers finally got their act together and got Bipasha to agree to take another shot at it.
By then though she was pretty much fed up with everything, but she did get made up again and went on with the show.
By all accounts though it was a less than stellar performance.
But can you really blame her?
