Aishwarya will have to marry a ‘Peepal’ Tree!!!

ash-abh-pooja.jpgBachchans have been buying banarasi sarees and have been doing pujas for Ash and Abhishek. Exclusive Bachchan family’s cadre in Varanasi with Aishwarya proved that Ash is a welcome figure amid the Bachchans. The whole sequence in Varanasi fuels the rumors that Ash and Abhishek are going to get married. The latest in the series is that Ash will have to marry a ‘peepal’ tree in order to get rid of her ‘manglik’ dosh. Once she gets married to a ‘peepal’ tree she can marry a human being. What a tragedy that miss World will have to marry a tree. This is height of being superstitious. Abhishek seemed to be pretty modern when he accepted his girl in Munnabhai in spite of being manglik. Looks like the man is different from his reel life!

Aishwarya was hurt during Guru

Ashhhhhhhhh fell and got bruised during the shoot of Guru. Guess what was she riding on- a bicycle…lagta hai kissiii ne Ash ko distract kar diya kya…he he he!

59Poor Ash she keeps hurting herself on the sets. But last time it was really big- she was shooting for ‘Khakee’ and she had met with an accident when a jeep backed down on her on the sets. Good that Mani chose a historical film set against the backdrop of India’s struggle for Independence because of which Ash just had to ride a bicycle!

Sanjay Dutt’s acquittal, Dhoom 2 collections, Aishwarya in varnasi and more in podcast #1

Bollywood is hot and bollywood is super-happening place and here we are to give you your dose of bollywood news and gossip. Your very own Sowmya gives you a complete round-up of whats ‘in’ and whats ‘out’ in bollywood. In this capsule she covers the following bits

1. Sanjay Dutt’s acquittal in the 13 year old TADA case gives not just him but the entire film fraternity a huge relief.

2. Dhoom II continues to break records not just in India but across the globe. Over the weekend it pipped SRK starter Don as the film getting the biggest opening at the North American Box Office.

3. Emraan Hashmi says that his lure to Bollywood is not the ‘lip-locks’ he does rather he more interested in the ‘lip-syncs’ that you see in songs.

4. Abhishek and Hrithik seem to have a pact between them, else how would you explain their decision to at least do one film together every alternate year.

5. More on Abhishek, this time bout his wedding with Aishwarya Rai. Some say its already over others say it will happen soon… but what does Sowmya say about this???

So thats it for time around, do come back for more from Sowmya and bollywood… cheers

Aishwarya got homesick during Guru

Friends I have been talking a lot about Abhishek in Guru and almost nothing about Aishwarya. But not to worry I have exclusive stuff on her on the sets of Guru and min dyou these are not part of the Abhishek- Aishwarya saga that is going on in media.

guru-17.jpg
Apparently Ash felt so homesick during the shoot that she decided to rush home during an unexpected break between a location change from Badami to Chennai. “She got fed up of Studio food and therefore rushed home. In Badami, she was surviving on salads and liquids. She is a foodie, yet she has to maintain her diet. That’s how most of her favourite food gets eliminated from her menu” informs Hari Singh her business manager. Looks like this mistress of spices loves mild vegetables more than spices!

Dhoom II, listen to the review

Dhoom II is high on adrenaline and on machismo and at the same time it’s a super cool flick. Made with a huge budget and on a canvas thats never seen before in Bollywood. The makers of the film have made everything from the skies to land and even under water a part of their canvas making Dhoom not just stylish but also larger than life.

Here is the cool duo of Sowmya and Sandeep having a blast as they put together the pieces of Dhoom II exclusively for you… listen to this and enjoy also don’t forget to send in your feedback…

Sanjay Dutt not a TERRORIST! yippiiieeeee

Yes guys… Sanjay Dutt is perhaps the happiest man in the world today!!! The TADA judge PD Kode today told Sanju Baba that he was NOT a TERRORIST! The man literally clasped his hands and closed his eyes as if to say a big big THANK YOU :)

Just a few hours ago, this good news was broken to the Dutt family and weren’t they ONE happy lot… however, apna Munna Bhai is still accused in the arms act for illegal possession of weapons… but the joy of the terrorist part being removed is too big a joy to even think about it…

58

You should’ve looked at the sea of faces around the courtroom when his return was announced… I guess they were prepared to see their favorite ‘Bhai’ in jail!!! But as of now, he’s headed back home :) :) :)

While the whole industry breathes a sigh of relief, the sword of punishment is still looms on his head… the legal experts have made it clear that the charges levied on Sanjay under the Arms possession act have a minimum imprisonment of 5 years as a result!!! The worst part is that such verdicts are NON-BAILABLE :(

Anyways, it’s party time for the dude now as all the hassles are postponed till December 19th (that’s the date till his bail is extended!)… Tab tak bhai kuch soch lega mamuuuuu……

Guru to be dubbed in Tamil

Imagine Abhishek talking in Tamil…Ash dear has already done it for Mani Ratnam. But jokes apart, Guru is going to be dubbed in Tamil. The Tamil version will be released along with the Hindi version on January 12, 2007. And it will be a pongal special for Tamilians.

Guru-still-1.jpg
Madras talkies and people in Madras are crazy about Ash and to top all that their marriage scene in the movie (perhaps also in their real life) has been shot at the famous Madurai temple. And with all the hype and hoopla around Abhishek and Aishwarya the movie is definitely gonna have a lot of audience. Stay tuned guys there is more to come.
