Bollywood Actresses News - Preity Zinta, Katrina Kaif and More

Bollywood actress Preity Zinta has enrolled at Harvard Business School, a graduate business school in Boston, Massachusetts, and will be studying negotiating and deal-making.
It sounds like the lovely Preity is planning for her life after acting.
Or maybe she just wants to make more of an impact know in the Bollywood scene.
HBS was ranked number one among American business schools by the U.S. News & World Report, so she is in good hands.

Beautiful Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif was almost involved in a riot when she showed up to promote her film Azab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani in Hyderabad.
She appeared at a shopping mall and a huge crowd of her fans showed up to see her, things got outta hand and Katrina made a run for it, reportedly injuring her leg.
But the fans werent put off that easily, and kept chasing her by car and bicycle.
They should have been ready for this though, because it happened to her last year in Hyderabad.
Maybe more security next time?

If you run across Sameera Reddy's profile on a dating site, it isn't her.
Sameera is just one of many Bollywood actresses that have fallen prey recently to Internet hoaxes.
Like Sammera would need a dating site.
Riiiight.

Recently, Asin's online e-mail ID was hacked, and someone has been impersonating Katrina Kaif online as well.
Sonam Kapoor's Facebook account was also hacked and private pictures were stolen.
Katrina (will her online problems ever end?), Freida Pinto and Asin (again) have also had to deal with people setting up fake Twitter accounts.

On the other hand, the REAL Priyanka Chopra is still doing very well with 81,588 followers.
And the real Mallika Sherawat is still trailing her with a very respectable 24,322 followers.

Isha Koppikar (Eesha Koppikhar) is getting married on November 26th to Timmy Narang,
But before that, she will be filming an item number for Neeraj Pathak film, Right Yaa Wrong.
She'll also be finishing up Hello Darling before the wedding.

Aishwarya Rai, Priyanka Chopra and Rani Mukherjee

One of the most successful female filmstars in the history of Indian cinema, Hema Malini, has said that the only Bollywood actress that deserves the title "Dream Girl" is the beautiful and talented Aishwarya Rai.
High praise indeed coming from a lady thats made a name for herself as not only an Indian actress, director and producer but as a Bharatanatyam dancer-choreographer as well.
The lovely Ash is keeping herself busy, with four movies coming out in 2010.
First up is Endhiran, a science-fiction Tamil language film being directed by S. Shankar.
Then Ashokavanam, also a Tamil film, directed, written and produced by Mani Ratnam.
Next up are two Hindi movies, Raavan, also being directed by Mani Ratnam, and Action Replay directed by Vipul Shah.


There is a rumor going around that Priyanka Chopra is going to work with UK-based pop star Jay Sean on his new album.
Priyanka big fan of Jay Sean’s music and it's rumored that she will appear in at least one music video for him.
This isn't Jay Sean’s first Bollywood connection.
The lovely Bipasha Basu worked with him on his music video "Stolen".


And the bad feelings between Salman Khan and Aditya Chopra have been healed thanks to Rani Mukherjee.
Evidently the love of Salman's life and the friend of Aditya has been working behind the scenes to get the two back on speaking terms.
So I guess you can add "peacemaker" to Rani's list of credits.
BTW, you can get a lot more info on Rani at this great site I found (no, it's not mine...LOL)
Rani Mukherjee Saree

Juhi Chawla News

Bollywood producer, singer, actress and former Miss India 1984, Juhi Chawla, is certainly getting around these days.

She is being profiled on " Superstars Superlives" this week on ZoOM along with other Bollywood beauties Madhuri Dixit, Kajol Devgan and Rani Mukherjee.

Juhi was a judge on the reality dance show Jhalak Dikkhla Jha along with Saroj Khan and Vaibhavi Merchant.

Along with other Bollywood stars Preity Zinta, Shilpa Shetty, Arjun Rampal and Shahrukh Khan she is involved in the IPL (The Indian Premier League, a Twenty20 cricket competition).

And Juhi was in this years Luck By Chance, an Indian drama film written and directed by Zoya Akhtar.
Although critics mainly liked it, it didn't do too well at the box office.

But since 1986, she has been in almost 90 films. So I dont think one performing badly is going to hurt her much.
Besides the almost 90 films, she has produced three films, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani (2000), Asoka (2001) and Chalte Chalte (2003).

Bollywood Actress Bipasha Basu News

Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu is all over the news these days.

First, she seems to be starting a trend by not wearing make up.
Actually Ameesha Patel started it first, but you know, I wonder how many Hollywood actresses could pull off the no make up look?

And Bipasha is playing Diva again.
At Thursday night's launch of Shiamak Davar's sports wear collection, she was a no show.
Even though Bipasha is the company's brand ambassador and she was in Mumbai.
Rumor has it that she didnt attend because Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan were also invited to the event, so she was afraid she wouldn't get solo media coverage there.
Of course Bipasha's spokesperson denied this.

Bipasha has several movies coming out this year including Aa Dekhen Zara (a romantic sci-fi action thriller movie), Pankh, Lamhaa, Sob Choritro Kalponik and Chaimera.

Here is a video from Aa Dekhen Zara:

Amisha Patel Updates

I just realized I havent written a thing about the beautiful Bollywodd actress Amisha Patel in quite awhile.
So here we go.....

A common theme we seem to see alot with Bollywood beauties is that they tend to follow the Hollywood motto of "The Show Must Go on".....

Amisha dances inspite of leg injury
Amisha Patel has been attending grueling rehearsals for the last few days leading up to the Stardust Awards but few people including her choreographer Rajiv Surti know about it. The actress recalls, "I pulled a muscle in my left leg yesterday morning and have been surviving on painkillers since. It was my first day of the rehearsals and I wanted to go all out for it.
Full story here

And on the magazine racks, photos of Amisha Patel seem to be everywhere. She's recently appeared on the covers of Verve, OK!, Man’s World and Kohl.

As a matter of fact, the cover shot on the OK! magazine came from Dabboo Ratnani's calendar (several top Bollywood actresses posed for the calendar) and Amisha's boyfriend, Kanav Puri, liked the picture so much, he had a copy framed and hung on the wall of his bedroom.
What a guy!

And this year will see Run Bhola Run (with Govinda and Amisha Patel) and Chatur Singh Two Star (with Sanjay Dutt and Amisha Patel) coming out this year.

Priyanka Chopra News

Priyanka Chopra got the thumbs up for 'Hottest swimwear of the year' from buzz18.com for the gold swimsuit she wore in the movie "Dostana".

And it doesn't stop there.
Priyanka also won the Best Actress Award for ‘Fashion’ at the Nokia 15th Annual Star Screen Awards.

And evidently Priyanka and Katrina Kaif had a few words about who was going to perform the grand finale of Star Screen Awards.
Priyanka wanted to go last, but so did Katrina.
The closing number was called ‘Five Divas’, and had Bipasha Basu , Deepika Padukone , Anushka Sharma , Katrina Kaif and Priyanka all performing.
Katrina won the arguement and got to perform last.
Well what do you expect?
Look up Diva, "a star who is a "diva" is arrogant, difficult to work with, high-maintenance, manipulative, fussy, highly strung, privileged and demanding".
Okay it also means the feminine of the Latin word divus, "god" so "goddess" would work too.
But get five Divas together and what do you think would happen?

Kajol in "My Name Is Khan"

Bollywood actress Kajol is staying very busy these days.
First, she is said to be dieting and working out to get into shape for her role in "My Name Is Khan".
She's eating healthy, watching her calories and hitting the gym.

Shooting started on "My Name Is Khan" in Los Angeles on December 18th and Kajol is scheduled to fly there to start her part of the shooting.
Also starring in the movie will be Shahrukh Khan and Shabana Azmi.
The film will be released in November 2009.

Who is the top Bollywood Actress?

India Times has posted a list of the highest paid actresses in Bollywood.
The list goes like this....
Kareena Kapoor
Aishwarya Rai
Katrina Kaif
Deepika Padukone
Bipasha Basu
Priyanka Chopra



Very impressive list.
But I matched that list against the most popular (highest searched) Bollywood actresses and it came out like this.....
Aishwarya Rai
Kareena Kapoor
Katrina Kaif
Deepika Padukone
Priyanka Chopra
Bipasha Basu

The top spot looks like a fairly even battle between Aishwarya Rai and Kareena Kapoor.

So just who is the reigning Queen of Bollywood?

Madhuri game to act, all she needs is a script

Madhuri game to act, all she needs is a script

Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit, who is based in the United States after marriage, has said she was open to film offers.
"I have been offered scripts and will sign if something very interesting comes up. Logistics can be worked out whether the film can be shot in the US or India," she said over phone from New York.
The Dhak Dhak girl was the guest star of Amitabh Bachchan-led 'Unforgettable' tour in the United States and performed in six cities, including the last one in New York.

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.

Katrina Kaif is not dependent on Salman Khan

Katrina Kaif is not dependent on Salman Khan
09th June 2007 20.27 IST
By Aparajita Ghosh

Katrina Kaif says the reports of beau Salman Khan recommending her to filmmakers in Bollywood are fabricated by gossipmongers.

Though Katrina has been part of successful films in the past, Namastey London is truly her first hit flick in Bollywood. Today, Katrina has got a firm foothold in tinsel town, but her detractors still seem bent to pull her down.

For example, stories have been in circulation that Salman has been recommending Katrina to filmmakers. It has been alleged that Katrina got one of the lead roles in David Dhawan’s ‘Partner’ solely on Salman’s insistence. There have also been talks that whenever Katrina has some problem while working with any filmmaker, she promptly calls Salman to help her out.

Celina Jaitley and PETA

Celina signs PETA
Bollywood Trade News Network


Nowadays Celina Jaitley is in news. After her international contract for a film she has again created a buzz to the media. PETA (People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animal) has asked Celina for their newest awareness campaign which she agrees to do.

PETA India, based in Mumbai, was launched in January 2000. They usually campaign for the animals who suffer in the zoos and circus and by their trainers. Many bollywood actors have signed PETA and doing the campaign for them. They have chosen Celina Jaitley for this newest campaign because she has a special corner for the elephants and according to PETA she is an animal lover and actively involved with some organization that collects funds for these elephants.
