Shilpa Shetty turns designer, launches her sari brand

From B-Town to Designer world: For ethnic wear lovers, seeing what sari their favourite actress wore is basic must-do research before purchasing a sari for themselves. And one such actress who has become known for her choice in Indian wear is Shilpa Shetty Kundra.

It is this kind of audience support that encouraged the actress-entrepreneur to design her own line of saris, under the brand of Shilpa Shetty Kundra (SSK) saris. The collection has been exclusively announced in partnership with HomeShop 18 and was launched at a special event in the capital recently. Shilpa walked the ramp wearing a sari from her new collection and said, "The sari is one of the most popular and versatile outfits, which makes you look glamorous and dignified at the same time. In this exclusive collaboration, I've enjoyed experimenting with unique styles to suit different tastes. The SSK collection has been designed keeping in mind an Indian ethos with a modern twist, light fabrics and embellishments enhancing their richness, with the biggest prerequisite being budget-friendliness."

READ: Shilpa Shetty: I have an art budget

The launch collection comprised six designs which were mostly light saris in georgette and crepe in various colour schemes and prints.

I loved the way saris looked on my mom: Talking about the background behind her decision to design, Shilpa said, "Ever since I can remember, I loved saris primarily because my mother used to wear them to work and I would love the way they looked on her. After I started wearing saris, I would tell my designer friends, yeh colour kardo, yeh print add kardo, yeh fabric hai, etc. That's when I realized that since I design for myself, I could totally do it for my fans."

Shilpa's husband, Raj Kundra was also a part of the event and was present in the front row to see the show along with founder and CEO, HomeShop18, Sundeep Malhotra. After the show, Sundeep said, "HomeShop18 has always been at the forefront of innovation and in a yet another first, we're proud to launch a range by Bollywood star and fashion icon Shilpa Shetty Kundra. The exclusive SSK saris offer our customers a premium collection at an affordable price point and supreme quality. We believe this partnership will revolutionize designer-wear by making it accessible to women across India."

TV heartthrob goes shirtless for a scene

Harshad Chopra, who is seen in Humsafars, recently had to do a shirtless scene for the show. The scene required him to step out of the pool.

While the actor had no qualms about shooting the scene, what created a problem for him was the cold water in the pool. Harshad told us, "I try and workout daily. Thanks to the 24-hour gym, even if I pack up late, I go to the gym."

READ: Harshad Chopra enjoys loyal fan following

Harshad said that while he has done similar scenes in his previous shows, this scene proved to be tough for him. "When I entered the pool, the water was ice-cold. During the scene, I was supposed to look macho. However, while coming out of the pool I would start shivering. We ended up doing a lot of retakes. Finally, after the scene was okayed, I covered myself and sat in my vanity van without AC for some time. I just hope that if I am suppose to do a similar scene in the future, the production house would use warm water," he said laughing.

Hrithik: Katrina is hardworking, works like a man

Hrithik Roshan grew up thinking that you work hard, gain success, have a family and you will be happy. But things have changed for him over the last one year.

From a point in time when he wanted to put a stop to his life, he has learnt that the most important thing is to be happy and other things will follow. He has opened up and regained his self esteem. From being a nice guy willing to go any distance to please others, he is today a good guy who is content with life. Ahead of his upcoming action entertainer Bang Bang, he talks to Bombay Times about the difficult journey of making the film, his favourite co-stars and how he loves being the provider for his sons. Excerpts:

You went through a lot professionally and personally during the shooting of Bang Bang. How difficult was it to make this film?

I remember when I signed the film, people were very skeptical and wondered why I had chosen to work with Siddharth Anand. I was quite surprised that people judge other people based on the work they have done in the past or based on their own opinions based on your likes and dislikes. You really can't do that as life is a process of change and evolution. People grow and learn and I judge people basis what they are in front of me right there and then. You cannot judge a person by what you have heard of him or what he has been in the past. He stalked my imagination, inspired me, gave me gooseflesh and I go with that. That has to be real. You can't fake it and that is all that matters. I go with my instinct in matters of creativity. Siddharth is unstoppable. He has been such a strong force behind Bang Bang and I am so grateful to him for that. It was so easy for him to succumb to finger pointing, saying things about me, him, us, when the film got delayed. People love doing that and that is okay. But Siddharth and I were the only two people standing in that corner pointing our fingers to that peak, knowing that somehow we will get there one way or the other. We were there empowering each other all the way through. I had promised him that when I get back, I am going to make this film bigger and better than anything else that I have done in my life. And he promised the same to me in return. There were things I was going throughout the making of the film, both personally and professionally, but we were so strong in our vision.

Sid has been a great source of friendship and inspiration and he is the one who gave me the platform to channelise whatever was going on in the most constructive way. There was a point in time that I just didn't want to go ahead with anything in my life. I think it's at that precipice that you decide what kind of a man you want to be and that is when I discovered myself. I took myself out of that equation and started focusing outwards towards other people. There was a point where I just wanted to put a full stop to my life and I discovered a whole new world. I decided that while I had conquered the physical muscle, it was a time to build the mental muscle. The mind will keep saying no and I am going to keep pushing it forward. The first rule was that I am going to be. I asked myself, 'What can I do about this right now? How can I make my life better?' And the answers came. I did every single thing that I didn't feel like doing. I didn't feel like going to the gym, so, I went to the gym. I would ask myself, 'What do I build my body for? I have a hole in my head. Where am I going?' Just stupid questions. Questions that have negative answers. I didn't feel like going out to meet my friends. I went out. I didn't feel like getting out of bed. I sprang up. Every single thing I didn't feel like doing, I did. Every single day I came back and tick-marked. I would write it and slowly, it became automatic and I felt wow. Mental muscle is a fantastic aspect if you form a blueprint in your head. Today, I don't think there is anything that can happen in my life that will affect me negatively. Even the most disastrous thing will put me down only for 10 minutes. There will be a point in life when the model of your world may change and you may not be able to see the way forward. Because you have been looking at it in a way that you have been trained to look at it. You have grown up with a philosophy of work hard, gain success, have a family and that is equal to happiness. But the model breaks and you have to realise that you have to be happy first and all the other things will follow.

Are you happy?

I am very content. I am quite sure, years from now when I will connect all the dots, as has always happened in my life, everything will make sense.

READ: Hrithik Roshan: Lesser known facts

What gives you the most joy in life today?

I was earlier very happy in my cocoon. I had been successful, had beautiful children and had found my soulmate. I didn't care about the outside world and didn't even know that it existed. But it was a change that was forced upon me. Today, I love being around people. I see someone and can almost gauge what this person needs from me now.

Talk about working with Katrina Kaif?

She amazes me because of her accomplishment, given that she didn't even know the language. To learn a new language and conquer a new domain in a language that you don't speak, I think, is incredible. She is very hardworking and works like a man. She is a worker. She is a go-getter and has that drive and passion and will work those late hours and will do whatever it takes to accomplish what she wants. Also, she is feminine energy, which is just beautiful.

Which are your favourite co-stars?

I have had a great on-screen pairing with Katrina, Aishwarya and Priyanka. With Aishwarya, the give-and-take we would achieve was incredible. The way she has built her craft is very similar to my craft. The tools she uses to make things are similar to what I use. At times, she will look at me and I would feel shit that she knows my secret and knows why I am doing this. That is going to make me look better as she does the same thing and I would feel like I was caught. Her focus matched my focus beautifully. Priyanka is just so easy to work with. She is very strong which is why, she can take bullshit and still smile. I have had instances when I have been inspired by her.

So far, you have chosen to do only one film a year. Will we see that change?

I would like to change that for sure. And that will change sooner than you think.

Do you enjoy the role of playing a father?

Hrehaan and Hridhaan are pure angels and pure delight. Unfortunately, they are not naughty and that keeps me a little concerned as I too, was not naughty as a kid. I am now trying to push them out to do things. They are too special and beautiful and being around them is such a great opportunity to contribute to them. I love playing a father. I miss it so much. One of the most beautiful parts of being a father is that you are the provider. There will be durations where you will be out there and not see them for days on end and that's the time you should feel stronger about yourself that you are working to provide for them. When I miss them too much, instead of feeling too bad, I rephrase it and tell myself that I am doing this as I am a provider. And they will be better people knowing that they had a strong father who went out there and provided for them. Love should never disempower you. It should empower you even more. When I am with them, it's all about how I can inspire them more, stimulate their minds, how I can make them understand the human nature. They have just started to use their mental muscle.

How different is your relationship with your sons versus what yours was with your father, Rakesh Roshan?

Up till just a few years back, my relationship with my father was more formal. We always had an amazing relationship, but there was so much respect that I would always be in awe. He is like a control freak and I was always worried about upsetting him, but that's changed now. It's amazing how people evolve. He has found his true nature and is only full of love now. Which other couple in his domain or career takes his wife out for dates? I go to my mom's room sometimes and she is not there. The next day, I go again and again, she is not there and I will ask, 'Mama, where have you been?' and she says, 'Papa keeps taking me out for these dates'. Can you imagine? That's what loyalty does. If you are loyal to anything in your life, it could be your career, a business or to a person, it pays back no matter what.

You have been so closed in the past. It's so beautiful to see you so open today, accepting your weaknesses with ease. What makes you so secure?

Because I don't fear being human. All my life, I have been closed and have tried to protect myself too much, so much so that I turned into being this nice guy. There is a big difference between being a nice guy and a good guy. A nice guy will be nice to everyone. Why? Because he wants everyone to like him as he thinks that he has so many flaws and he is not good enough and does not have any self-esteem or self-worth so he has to be nice to everyone as he wants everyone to love and like him. Nice guys will always suffer all their lives as they will be pleasing others all the time and will tire themselves completely. A good guy has his self-worth, does good for everyone but will not please. He is there to do good to everyone and does the right thing. I would say, 'Don't be the nice guy. Be the good guy.'

Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan- They are Bollywood's golden couple and it is obvious that the wedding ceremony of the world's most beautiful woman Aishwarya Rai and son of legendary Bollywood actors Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, was an intimate but nevertheless a grand wedding affair! Because of Amitabh Bachchan's mother's ill health, the wedding ceremonies were limited to only a select few but it still had that opulence that we expected from this wedding. It is believed that the henna for Aishwarya's mehendi ceremony came from Sojat in Rajasthan. 15 kgs of henna was sent to Mumbai five days prior to the ceremony by the traders. The henna was specially prepared by them as they had done the same for Liz Hurley's wedding. Ash's wedding sari was a beautiful red and gold zari one designed by her favourite Neeta Lulla. Abhisheki on the other hand chose designers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla for his white and gold wedding sherwani. Everything about this wedding was a grand, read expensive affair!

Out of all the functions, it was the post wedding reception called the Dawat-E-Walima hosted by Saif Ali Khan's mother Sharmila Tagore that was the most talked about. Apart from film personalities that were a highlight at most of the functions, this one had dignitaries from the Royal families, celebrities from the world of sports and politics as well. The invitation card of the Dawat-E-Walima also became a talking point with the royal Pataudi emblem embossed on it. Kareena wore her mother-in-law's traditional joda for the function. According to a news in Hindustan Times, Saif and Kareena had booked two five star hotels in Mumbai for the functions and to put up their guests.

Genelia and Riteish Deshmukh- Actor Riteish Deshmukh's wedding to his girlfriend of long time and actress Genelia D'Souza was another staple big fat Bollywood affair. Their wedding was a five day affair and since Riteish and Genelia belong to different cultures, the wedding took place with Maharashtrian customs which was followed by a Church wedding. According to a news report in Hindustan Times, Riteish and Genelia's wedding was decided at the last moment and hence the wedding planners had a tough task at hand. A star studded mehendi and sangeet ceremony was followed by an equally dazzling wedding ceremony. Riteish and Genelia's reception was another star studded affair and included celebrities from the film, fashion and political world. Riteish's father Vilasrao Deshmukh being the former Chief Minister of Maharashtra, the event had more star power than the country had seen for a long time. Apart from five star hotels being booked, a lavish spread for the high profile guests; the wedding attire of the bride and groom was another talking point.

The couple's reception was hosted by Imran Khan's mamu jaan Aamir Khan and his wife Kiran Rao at Mumbai's expensive Taj Lands End hotel. The biggies of the entertainment industry attended this function. From Shah Rukh Khan and wife Gauri to Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone and Salman Khan attended the do. Cricketer Sachin Tendulkar and his wife Anjali too made their presence felt at the function. If we pay any heed to gossip then it is believed that since Imran Khan was busy with his film shooting, he could not help Avantika to plan the wedding. But their friend Karan Johar apparently stepped in and helped with the wedding preparations and was the unofficial wedding planner! For some of the ceremonies it was believed that Khan family's special chefs were flown in from Lucknow to prepare delectable meals.

Bigg Boss 8: Shahid and Shraddha promote Haider

Sunday's episode of Bigg Boss season 8 witnessed the calm before the storm, as Bigg Boss finally takes matters into his own hands.

The remaining members Deepshika Nagpal and RJ Preetam of the Secret Society will now join their former comrade Puneet Isaar and the rest of the passengers on Flight BB08. Earlier with the arrival of Puneet Issar, hostility and distrust in the house grew as the passengers did not know the real motive of a member of the secret society living amongst them. And now that all members of the Secret Society will be joining the rest of the passengers, the flight is surely going into a tailspin. With all contestants living together, the members of the Secret Society will lose the immunity and control over the passengers that they enjoyed for the first week of the show. Will they adjust to their new neighbors, surroundings and living in the confines of an airplane is yet to be seen.

Before leaving Shahid and Shraddha met with Bigg Boss host Salman Khan where they danced to the tunes of Bismil from the movie Haider, and Shraddha sang songs from her movies. All's well that ends well, but that was just for Shahid and Shraddha as their visit to Bigg Boss had come to an end; as for the passengers, their journey has just begun.

'Naseeruddin Shah made me a non-vegetarian'

Besides carving a niche while playing together some of the pivotal roles in Hindi cinema, Bollywood greats and friends Naseeruddin Shah and Om Puri bonded over food and loved having dishes like brain curry. "It was Naseer who turned me into a non-vegetarian," said Puri while mentioning their gastronomical journeys in old Delhi during the launch of Shah's memoirs 'And Then One Day' in the national capital last night.

Shah and Puri were classmates in the National School of Drama and have been friends for more than 40 years now. But few know that Puri was a vegetarian when he joined NSD.

READ: Naseeruddin Shah and Om Puri recount their journey to stardom

"One day Naseer and I were having a meal together and he asked me to try some meat. When I refused, he insisted that I should eat my rice with some gravy from the non-veg curry that he was eating. I tried and liked it. Then on another day he made me taste a small piece of meat and I liked that too. Eventually he made me a non-vegetarian too!"

The veterans have acted together in iconic films like Aakrosh, Droh Kaal, Sparsh, Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, Ardh Satya, Paar, Mandi and Albert Pinto Ko Gussa Kyon Aata Hai.

At the launch, the book, published by Hamish Hamilton, was introduced by Chiki Sarkar, publisher of Penguin Random House. A conversation between Shah and naturalist-author Pradip Krishen followed during which Shah spoke about his book, his life and journey. Shah also read out the passage from the book in which he talked about standing at his father's grave. Even while reading what he had already penned, his eyes turned moist and there was an unusual silence in the auditorium. Shah's actor wife Ratna Pathak Shah was among a host of other people present at the launch.

No female-centric films for Kareena Kapoor right now

Kareena Kapoor, who has done her share of female-centric dramas, says she wouldn't accept a biopic or a woman-oriented script just because others are doing it.

It won't be saying wrong that this year is riding high on women centric dramas. Be it Kangana Ranaut's sleeper hit "Queen" or Alia Bhatt's raod movie "Highway" or Rani Mukerji's "Mardaani" or boxing champ Mary Kom's biopic starring Priyanka Chopra in the title role - all came and conquered the box office.

When asked Kareena about the same, she said: "I have done female-centric film. I did 'Chameli' at 22, then 'Jab We Met' and then 'Heroine'."

READ: Kareena rings in her birthday in Goa

"So, I would only do one if I really like the script and not just because everyone is doing it. That is not how I work," the 34-year-old said Wednesday at the Head & Shoulders event here.

Kareena was recently seen in Rohit Shetty's commercial hit "Singham Returns" and her upcoming films include "Happy Ending" with husband Saif Ali Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "Gabbar" opposite Akshay Kumar.

HC refuses to hear Shiney Ahuja's appeal immediately

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 24 September 2014 | 21.44

The Bombay High Court has refused to give relief to actor Shiney Ahuja, who sought expeditious hearing of his appeal against his conviction and sentence in a rape case, while observing that older cases were pending and it saw no urgency as he was already out on bail.

Hearing the actor's petition, Justice Sadhana Jadhav said, "Appeals of 1993-94 are pending hearing in the High Court. Hence the applicant's plea for expeditious hearing of his appeal will be considered in due course of time."

READ: No work for Shiney Ahuja in Bhatt camp

As such, the court said, there was no urgency in this matter. Moreover, the actor had been granted bail and hence his liberty was not being encroached upon.

However, the court yesterday granted liberty to Ahuja to file a fresh plea for expeditious hearing in case his appeal was not heard within a year.

READ: Again my life changed in 2 hours: Shiney Ahuja

Ahuja's lawyer Manoj Mohite argued that the actor was not getting role in films as he had been awarded a sentence after the trial court convicted him in the rape case. Hence, he had sought expeditious hearing of his appeal so that his career is not affected.

On March 30, 2011, a sessions court had sentenced Ahuja to seven years rigorous imprisonment for raping his domestic help on June 14, 2009. The court had also imposed a fine of Rs 3000.

However, the actor was acquitted of charges of wrongful confinement and criminal intimidation.

Although the maid had retracted her statement of having been raped, the trial court had convicted Ahuja based on circumstantial evidence.

However, he was released on bail by the Bombay High Court, pending hearing of his appeal which was admitted in April 2011.

Salman Khan's case adjourned as lawyer falls sick

The trial in the hit-and-run case involving actor Salman Khan was today deferred to October 9 after the court was informed that his lawyer was unwell.

The trial was to resume today after repeated adjournments over "missing" documents which have now been traced and submitted in the court.

Prosecutor Pradeep Gharat informed trial judge D G Deshpande that Khan's lawyer Srikant Shivade was not well and hence the trial may be adjourned.

Accordingly, the court deferred the trial for a fortnight. The prosecution has been asked to keep witnesses ready on the next date.

The actor also did not appear before the court today. Earlier, the trial had hit a roadblock after 63 original statements of witnesses and case diaries had gone missing from the custody of police. However, the documents were found lying at the police station after police chief Rakesh Maria had instituted an inquiry into the lapse. So far, 11 witnesses have deposed in the case.

READ: Witness turns hostile in Salman Khan's hit-and-run case

The sessions court had on December 5 last year ordered a fresh trial in the case on the ground that witnesses had not been examined in the context of aggravated charge of culpable homicide not amounting to murder, which was invoked against the actor by a magisterial court midway through the hearing.

The actor had earlier been tried by a magistrate for a lesser offence of causing death by negligence, which entailed an imprisonment of two years, while the charge of culpable homicide not amounting to murder attracts a 10-year sentence.

The magistrate, after examining 17 witnesses, had ruled that a case of culpable homicide was made out against the actor and referred it to the sessions court. Trial of cases of culpable homicide can be conducted by courts higher than magisterial courts.

On September 28, 2002, the actor's car had allegedly rammed into a bakery, killing one person and injuring four others sleeping on the pavement outside.

HC refuses to hear Shiney Ahuja's appeal immediately

The Bombay High Court has refused to give relief to actor Shiney Ahuja, who sought expeditious hearing of his appeal against his conviction and sentence in a rape case, while observing that older cases were pending and it saw no urgency as he was already out on bail.

Hearing the actor's petition, Justice Sadhana Jadhav said, "Appeals of 1993-94 are pending hearing in the High Court. Hence the applicant's plea for expeditious hearing of his appeal will be considered in due course of time."

READ: No work for Shiney Ahuja in Bhatt camp

As such, the court said, there was no urgency in this matter. Moreover, the actor had been granted bail and hence his liberty was not being encroached upon.

However, the court yesterday granted liberty to Ahuja to file a fresh plea for expeditious hearing in case his appeal was not heard within a year.

READ: Again my life changed in 2 hours: Shiney Ahuja

Ahuja's lawyer Manoj Mohite argued that the actor was not getting role in films as he had been awarded a sentence after the trial court convicted him in the rape case. Hence, he had sought expeditious hearing of his appeal so that his career is not affected.

On March 30, 2011, a sessions court had sentenced Ahuja to seven years rigorous imprisonment for raping his domestic help on June 14, 2009. The court had also imposed a fine of Rs 3000.

However, the actor was acquitted of charges of wrongful confinement and criminal intimidation.

Although the maid had retracted her statement of having been raped, the trial court had convicted Ahuja based on circumstantial evidence.

However, he was released on bail by the Bombay High Court, pending hearing of his appeal which was admitted in April 2011.

To enjoy their stay and keep themselves engaged, the passengers decided to play Dumb Charades and put up a ramp show in the evening, without any music. The theme of the fashion show was, 'Supernatural Beings' and the contestants were dressed like vampires and zombies. While Aarya Babbar went almost unrecognizable in a knee-length fur coat, Sonali Raut looked scary in the vampire make-up and dracula teeth.

Despite the discomfort on having to sleep on the airplane seats the whole night, their morning started with the classic 'Yeh Kahaan Aah Gaye Hum' which perfectly suited their state of mind. In the absence of a kitchen, the passengers wondered how they'll get their meals. However, they found meal trays being sent to them for breakfast and lunch, as they started the first day of their flight life. In such a situation, Aarya Babbar thought that a flight is the most romantic place in the world to meet someone, as you're destined to get to know your co-passenger.

Even though the journey has just begun, romance has already filled the air. Sparks flew between Upen Patel and Sukirti Kandpal of Hum Ne Li Hai- Shapath fame as they seem to enjoy each other's company more than that of others. From private conversations to already keeping nick names for each other, (Upen started calling Sukirti 'Sukku'), looks like these two clearly are heading somewhere. They seem to emerge as the 'romantic lovebirds' of this season and may succeed last year's couples - Kushal Tandon and Gauahar Khan and Armaan Kohli and Tanishaa Mukherji.
