Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor’s wedding is one of the most covered news by the media. For years now rumors of their wedding have been going on. But ever time a date was rumored to have been set by the couple, the couple went ahead and denied only to state that ‘marriage will happen but not any time soon’.

But for once the media seems to have got their information right as the couple will be tying knot this year on October 16^th and this has been confirmed by Saif Ali Khan’s mother and veteran actress Sharmila Tagore.

“Yes, that's the date. Then a reception, though not a very big one,” Sharmila Tagore said.

As Saif Ali Khan’s father Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi passed away recently, the wedding will be a low key affair with just family and close friends.

“Since it's still so soon after the family patriarch Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi passed away the entire family agreed to a low-key wedding. Kareena and her folks readily agreed to a closed family-only wedding. However a large reception after the wedding was seen to be imperative, considering both Saif and Kareena have such a vast network of friends in the film industry,” said a source to a daily.

The sequel to 2006 blockbuster hit ‘Pyaar Ke Side Effects’, starring Rahul Bose and Mallika Sherawat, has finally been announced.

The sequel titled ‘Shaadi Ke Side Effects’ stars Farhan Akhtar and Vidya Balan as Sid and Trisha. The story will be about how the relationship changes between the couple after the marriage.

Director Pritish Nandy confirmed the news and said that everyone except the main cast will return in the sequel.

“SKSE begins where PKSE ends. Except the lead pair, everyone including director Saket Choudhary and music director Pritam remain. SKSE is a funny, clever, wild film full of the fascinating ways love works before and after marriage. PKSE had four songs that became very popular, and the story had very strong connectivity with the audience, so we decided to make a sequel. Unfortunately, it a took a while in writing. Saket is a brilliant director but a slow writer,” said Pritish Nandy to a daily.

The movie brings together the usual and never before pairing of Vidya Balan and Farhan Akhtar.

Actress Chitrangada Singh’s first item song in Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Joker’ bears a resemblance with Madhuri Dixit’s famous song ‘Humko Aaj Kal Hai’.

Even though the actress admitted that there is a resemblance between the two tracks, she said that she hasn’t tried to copy Madhuri Dixit or her steps.

“I remember when Farah Khan offered me 'Kaaffirana'... I had asked her what the song is all about, the concept and what look will I have. She just told me it will be kind of similar to Madhuri's look in 'Humko Aaj Kal Hai'. She had said we will try and get the same look,” she said.

She added that it was impossible to outdo Madhuri.

“But then that is Madhuri -- you can't do a Madhuri. You can only try, so we have tried to something like that,” she said.

Actress Priyanka Chopra, who is the face of products like Nokia and Nikon, reveals that she is a technofreak and a gadget lover.

“I love technology. I consider myself geek's fantasy. Any new gadget in the market, I need to have one,” said to reports while she was named as the brand ambassador for Digital Direct Broadcast (DDB) technology.

Talking about DDB she said, “This DDB is so simple it's like a file. It's like a folder where I can put all my memories in one. All information is digitalized and comes in one TV.”

“It was impossible for me not to be associated with this. Everything is digitalized today, it has become easy. It is one gadget which has everything. It is part of progressive evolution of technology,” she concluded.

Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor has once again proven that she in fact has a big mouth. The actress, who has been in many controversies due to her lack of thinking twice before she speaks, is once again in news for lashing out at Katrina Kaif and calling her shameless.

Apparently when media posed her a question asking about her recent movies ‘Mausam’ and ‘Players’, which were duds at the box-office, she said, “I look at it and know what not to do. With all due respect, I want to give Katrina Kaif a bouquet of flowers.”

When asked why she answered saying, “Because I don’t know how she does it. You need a certain kind of commitment and a certain kind of shamelessness to do certain things and you get that may be with stardom, with confidence in your talent, with who you are as a person, and I need to develop that before I do that kind of films — over the top films. I need to learn how to do it as I was terrible in those movies.”

The actress, who was recently in Cannes for the film festival said that she is always in news for her fashion because she is the only fashion icon in India.

Sunny Leone’s popularity in India has grown so much that her ‘Jism 2’ producer Pooja Bhatt has decided to auction Sunny Leone’s costume including her lingerie.

“I am auctioning Sunny, Randeep and Arunoday's entire wardrobe down to their underwear for charity. Taking one’s clothes off has never been so noble,” said Pooja Bhatt to a daily.

Pooja Bhatt doesn’t understand why people react negatively when they hear the word lingerie.

“Why should we have anything against a beautiful lingerie? Hollywood stars auction their lingerie. It’s a done thing. There is a huge market for these. Given a chance, I’d love to buy Javier Bardem's undergarments in an auction,” she said.

The filmmaker said that the auction will be online and highest bidder will not only win the garment but also get an autograph with it.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s last movie was ‘Guzaarish’ that starred Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai. Even though the film was critically acclaimed it failed to make a mark at the box-office.

The director later took to production and has produced a few movies. But the filmmaker will be back behind the cameras, where he belongs, with his next movie starring Kareena Kapoor and Ranveer Singh.

Kareena Kapoor has always voiced her wish of working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali. With this project both the actress's and the director’s dream will come true.

“We have wanted to work together for a while and I am immensely excited. We met for the first time around the release of ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’ (1999). She was working on her debut, Refugee (2000), then. So, we’ve been constantly thinking and talking to each other. I’m happy that this has finally worked out now,” said Bhansali to HT in an interview.

Actress Vidya Balan has taken Bollywood by storm with her brilliant acting and delivering one hit after another, with her movies ‘Paa’, ‘Ishqiya’, ‘No One Killed Jessica’, ‘The Dirty Picture’ and ‘Kahaani’ being both critically and commercially acclaimed.

Other than her acting ability the actress has also been in news for her weight. Even though her curves were much appreciated in ‘The Dirty Picture’, the actress has come under some flak for the same after her special appearance in a song from the movie ‘Ferrari Ki Sawaari’.

Even though a huge section of the audience have loved the song and Vidya Balan’s Lavani dance moves, wearing the traditional Maharashtrian attire, one set of audience have criticized her for her weight.

“A woman needs to be curvy! If a woman sheds all her weight and the curves she would end up looking like a man! Why should women look like men? I have failed to understand this. I don't find that attractive at all,” she said.

Director Habib Faisal’s ‘Ishaqzaade’ has surprised many and has become a box-office hit. The movie that stars lesser known actors Arjun Kapoor, son of Boney Kapoor, who made his debut with this movie, and Parineeti Chopra, who made her debut in ‘Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl’ but this is her first movie as a main lead, has been appreciated equally by critics and audience.

Actor Arjun Kapoor said that the audience were more intellectual now and accepted good movies with good actors in them over movies with big names and bad story.

“The new generation has a lot of intensity. The audiences are happy to accept new films today. Nowadays, the audience is very intellectual. They only like an actor because of his acting,” he said.

The actor chose to site the example of Ranveer Singh, with whom its rumored Arjun Kapoor is having a cold war.

“Ranveer is an excellent example of this. He is doing good work. And the audience today only wants good work,” he said to PTI.

Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s blockbuster hit ‘Devdas’, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai and Madhuri Dixit, is being converted into 3D formant and the 3D version will be released very soon.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who has already seen the finished product, said that the movie was looking fantastic.

“We are now releasing ‘Devdas’ in 3D. It is going to be 10 years since its release. It is looking amazing in 3D,” he said.

The director added that ‘Devdas’ was the perfect movie to be converted into 3D.

“Just think when Aishwarya Rai, Madhuri Dixit and Shah Rukh Khan come in 3D in front of you, it'll look so great and the depth of the sets also. I think the film is apt for 3D,” he concluded.
