Kangana Ranaut - Bollywood Actress

Kangana Ranaut is a Bollywood actress who debuted in the film Gangster co-starring with Emraan Hashmi.

Kangana Ranaut was born on born March 20th, 1987, in the hill town of Mandi in Himachal Pradesh to Asha, a school teacher and Amardeep, a businessman. She completed most of her schooling from Shimla. She has been studying science (medicine)and engineering, however these subjects failed to interest her. In a passion for acting, Kangana traveled to Delhi, where she did several theatre shows.

After this, she decided to take another step ahead. She came to Mumbai, to try her luck in movies. She was unsuccessful for quite a while, until she received the offer for Mahesh Bhatt's 2006 film Gangster.

This event occurred in September 2005, while Kangana and her friends were sipping coffee at a cafe in Mumbai. Director Anurag Basu, from the fame of "Murder (film)", decided to call her for an audition. Fortunately, they liked her work and decided to cast her as as the main female protagonist in the film.

Mala Sinha

One of the most popular female stars in Bollywood films from the fifties to the early seventies, Mala Sinha was born on November 11th, 1936 in Kashmir, India (again there seems to be some question as some sources list her as being born in Calcutta, West Bengal, India).
She began acting as a child, and her first film is also in question.
Some places have it listed as Roshanara (1952), some as Jhanshi Ki Rani(1952) and still others have Jog Biyog (1953) listed as her debut as an adult.
Either way, she went on to appear in over one hundred Hindi, Bengali and Nepali films.
Mala is also the mother of Bollywood actress Pratibha Sinha.

Sonakshi Sinha In, Zarine Khan Out?



Sonakshi Sinha was born on June 2nd,1987.
She just made her acting debut in the Hindi action film Dabangg, along side her mentor Salman Khan.
Yes, Sonakshi is the new protege of Salman, replacing the Katrina Kaif look a like, Zarine Khan who just debuted in the not so epic Veer, alongside Salman back in January.
Maybe Zarine looked too much like Katrina.



Anyway, as opposed to Veer, Dabangg opened really well with some single screen theatres reporting 100% occupancy, while some multiplexes reported an 80 to 100% occupancy.
It actually beat the record opening day of last years mega hit, 3 Idiots, netting 3.26 million the first day.
So far it has pulled in over 31 million dollars worldwide.

This bodes quite well for Sonakshi, and makes you wonder what will become of Zarine now.

And as for Sonakshi's future, there is a rumor that she has beaten out both Katrina (gasp!) and Deepika Padukone to star opposite Akshay Kumar in Joker!

Neha Dhupia in "Bollywood Hero"

Neha Dhupia
“Bollywood Hero,” is an upcoming comedy miniseries for the Independent Film Channel starring Chris Kattan (Corky Romano).
But also in the miniseries will be Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia.
Neha may not be a huge hit in India, but her work ethic has brought praise from her America cast and crew.
Initial viewing of the films trailer by critics has lead to the idea that this just may be a sleeper hit, and that will look very good not only on the career of Chris Kattan but Neha as well.

Neha has several movies coming out in 2009 including "Paying Guest", "Pappu can't dance sala", "Raftaar","Raat gayi baat gayi", "I'm 24" and "De Dhanadhan".

Hopefully good reviews for "Bollywood Hero" will boost Neha's career.

Priyanka Chopra At an Art Show

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Bollywood actresses are not like their Hollywood counterparts.
I don't think they have anything comparable to Paris, Britney and Lindsay.
No, by contrast the actresses in Bollywood seem calm and reserved.
Charity events and art shows seem to be more in line with India.
As evidenced by this appearance by the beautiful Priyanka Chopra.......

Priyanka Chopra At Ayushi Mahajan's Art Show
Oh what a swanky scene at Ayusi Mahajan's art exhibit, held last night in the uber posh five-star Leela Hotel in Mumbai night last. The event that showcased the work of the already flourishing artist, Ayushi Mahajan, probably became a bigger success with the appearance of the gorgeous Bollywood actress and former Miss World winner, Priyanka Chopra. The event was purely put together to display and promote the art of the talented Ayushi Mahajan whose pieces featured at the show ranged from beautiful, calm, cool and tranquil realistic nature scenes which included sunsets and beaches to bright and bold modern, minimalistic, paint splattered art.

Neha Sharma set to sizzle in Bollywood

Neha Sharma
Neha Sharma is an Indian actress and model who is poised to make her mark in Bollywood.
Chirutha seems to be just the start of this actress's rise to fame.

Neha set to sizzle in Bollywood!
After making her debut in the Telugu film industry with Chirutha, the film that marked superstar Chiranjeevi’s son Charan’s debut as well, Neha Sharma is now ready to make her mark in Bollywood.
And the film that she’s kickstaring her Bollywood innings with is Yugander V V’s The Goodbye Trip. The fact that the film also stars 21 aspiring actors hasn’t dampened Neha’s spirit and the vivacious actress feels that each character only adds something special to the film. After all, it’s the story that matters, she feels.

Priyanka Chopra - BollywoodPriyanka goes ga ga over Melanie, Antonio

Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra bonded well with Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas at the Middle East International Film Festival in Dubai and apparently Spanish star Banderas expressed a wish to work with her.
The ongoing festival started on October 10 and on the opening night Priyanka first met Meg Ryan. At the opening ceremony, Priyanka shared a good two hours with Hollywood's hot couple Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas.
What you've heard is right. I did spend come time chatting with Antonio and his wife Melanie. We sat together at the opening. Antonio was extremely charming. He was familiar with the Bollywood film industry and the financial leaps it has made in recent years, Priyanka told IANS.
Banderas spoke to Priyanka about the possibilities of a tie-up, but the actress didn't comment on this. When asked if she was going international, Priyanka said: The language doesn't matter. It could be Hindi, English or Punjabi, it's all the same to me.
