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.

source: http://www.desihouston.net/

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.

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.
