“I will work with Abhishek only! “Says Aishwarya

Looks like the yummy mummy of Bollywood is all set to start her new innings after her motherhood, But only on one condition!

That is, her co-actor should be her own husband.

The former Miss World gave birth to a baby little girl last year on 16th of November. Her daughter became quite popular by the name of "Beti B" with Ash’s fans and the media, since the couple took over four months to name their daughter. The baby girl was finally named as Aaradhya Bachchan in March 2012. Much was talked about Aishwarya’s weight gain after pregnancy. But she did not pay heed to any of the criticisms.

This is the first time Aishwarya has expressed her interest to comeback to movies after her pregnancy.

She infamously left film maker, Madhur Bhandarkar’s film ‘Heroine’ because of the same reason. It was said that the shooting had already begun and the production team even including Aish had been to Cannes for its promotion. Madhur Bhandharkar even publicly accused Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for her unprofessional behaviour. Aishwarya however maintained stoic silence. Even Father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan intervened and asked Madhur to stop venting his anger towards media and supported his daughter-in-law. Later Kareena Kapoor stepped into her place as the lead role.

Days went by, everything was forgotten. Kareena is happy for finally grabbing the role and is excited since her movie is all set to release on September 21.  While Aish is busy with pampering her baby and enjoying every moment with her little one.

Now that Aaradhya is almost going to be one-year old, Mom Aishawarya is planning to return to movies. She is even ready to read the scripts for the same. But buzz is that even though she likes the scripts she is still refusing them! Why?? Because she has a condition that she will only work with hubby Abhishek Bachchan.  According to rumours, she has turned down many good offers from well known filmmakers because of her clause!

Compared to Aish’s successful film career Abhishek’s career never exactly took off... He was hardly visible in any films after ‘Paa’. Most of his films either bombed at the box-office or went unnoticed. Recently his performance in his movie ‘Bol Bachchan’ was well acclaimed. So Aish our advice for you is to better stop giving conditions to your producers or even you will be left with minimal offers like your husband!

Salman Didn't want SRK or Aishwariya Songs

As the duo of Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif is busy promoting the block buster movie Ek Tha Tiger, there has been few stories that are spreading behind the promotion campaigns that the duo took out. Earlier, they came in for the Jodi round of 'Jhalak Dhikla Ja' and the makers had a tough time to keep it up with the rules Salman Khan had laid out.

It seems that Salman Khan is not yet over with the Aishwariya Rai episode, a source at the sets of Jhalak Dhikla Ja says “Salman was set to appear on the jodi-special episode. As most of the jodis had chosen to perform on his film songs, the actor had specified he did not want any track on the show that was originally filmed on him and former flame Aishwarya Rai.”

Salman also did not want any of the contestants to perform on Shah Rukh Khan’s songs. “Darsheel and Avneet performed their act to SRK’s Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge song. Salman appeared on the show only after the song was over,” added the source.

Common Sallu, you shouldn't be so bad, you are already at top of your career and you still keep these petty issues running to you. 

The buzz is still talked slightly in lower tone and Salman Khan's success does cover the issues up. The trouble with Salman Khan did not just stop there, it was Katrina who got the rest of Salman's fury when she had forced Salman to dance with Madhuri Dixit on their famous dance number. Salman obviously did not want to do the dance but he finally did it when the audience and Katrina insisted. Later when Kat and he were in their vanity vans, he apparently reprimanded Kat for having forced him to dance.

However these incidents did not break the fun on the show and he kept the audience happy throughout the show and there was big cheers when the actor came out to perform, and all to all it was a festival mood.

The actor, who appeared in his exuberant self on the show, was seen sketching in between the shots. But when the shoot got over, he picked up his notebook and left without anyone else getting a chance to see his sketches. 

We are sure these are petty issues, but it does not cover up the fact that Salman Khan is still the hearthrobe and the most mobbed of actors. Katrina is also seen happy with the actor and this is the first time that in her career she touched the Rs. 100 crore mark, so that just should make this episode fade away!

Kareena Takes a dig at rival Katrina Kaif

Ever since the theatrical trailer of Madhur Bhandarkar’s Heroine has been released everyone is talking about Kareena Kapoor. But what seem to be more interesting than the trailer are the rumours that are doing the rounds in the industry. If what seems to be true, news of Kareena taking a dig at Katrina Kaif are spreading like fire!  Sources say, the Chammak chalo said to a journalist that some actress in the film industry make name and fame riding piggyback on their boyfriend. She also went on to say that the passport of the actress should be checked for name, age and country of origin. 

Wait! Before raising your eyebrows just let me tell you that it’s not Kareena but Madhur who has managed these dialogues for his movie Heroine!  Phew! Bhandarkar is known for the one-liners in his movie and this is also a part of it.  The dialogues are the reply to a journalist by Mahi Arora, the character played by Bebo in the movie. After listening to these dialogues there is no doubt you could think of only one actress to relate them to!  Sources say Kareena was reluctant to say these lines but Madhur convinced her saying that it’s not about a specific person but about those several aspiring actresses who come to India to try their luck in films.

At one place Kareena takes a dig at the media too, where she says, “Aap media waalon ko film scripts likhnee chahiye. Heroine ne gadi lee toh businessman ne gift kar di, diamond khareeda toh engagement ho gayi, hospital gayi checkup ke liye toh abortion ho gaya, LA gayi toh plastic surgery karva lee, or God forbid Dubai gayi toh uska rate card bann jata hai.”

Heroine is set to be released on September 12. The movie is about a Bollywood actress, her journey to stardom, her success and her failures. Kareena Kapoor plays the main lead. The film also casts Arjun Rampal and Randeep Hooda, who play the role of actor and cricketer respectively.

Originally the first choice for her role, Bebo was hesitant to take on the project when Bhandarkar approached her with the film's brief initial idea. She explained reservations about the criticism her character might evoke as well as the intimate sequences with several of her co-stars, and was subsequently replaced by Aishwarya Rai. Several days after production began, Rai left the film due to her pregnancy, and Bhandarkar re-approached Kapoor with the film. Once the director reinforced his faith in her, she agreed to do the film when she was handed the completed script. Prior to being cast in Heroine, Bhandarkar approached Kapoor with Page 3 and Corporate, both of which she could not do due to prior commitments. Kareena, who described her character as being "bipolar and schizophrenic", refrained from taking on any other projects as she found Heroine to be "very aggressive and tiring".

Well, Kareena surely doesn’t seem to be complaining after getting such rave reviews for her movie’s trailer. But what about the trouble she might face after saying such dialogues? Till now Katrina has never retaliated to the comments of other actresses on her. So will she keep mum this time too? Bebo was always in good relations with Salman. Wonder how Sallu Bhai will react to this?!

Abhishek mobbed by girls - Gets out clean!

Abhishek Bachchan who is busy with his schedule has been handling all those genres which hasn't been touched by him in a long time. The latest waiting on release is the comedy flick 'Bol Bachchan' which handles the comedy in a different track, being the remake of an yester year flick 'Golmaal' the movie still provides plenty of new experiences. 

“The movie had far too many draws for me. Working with Rohit (Shetty) and AJ (Ajay Devgn) ; trying a different brand of comedy; the role itself, everything’s exciting,” says the actor, as he talks about what drew him to the film.

Abhishek also plays in a dual role in the movie, but this isn't a double role as per the actor and its two different situations of the character.  Abhishek says that he’s not moulded it on Amol Palekar of the original Golmaal at all.

“It’s the concept that’s inspired by the film, not characters, so it’s going to be a different take altogether,” he adds about his roles in the situational comedy.

The actor also insists that having worked with both Rohit and Ajay earlier too, it was great fun on the sets. “Working with AJ is always a pleasure. He’s a fantastic actor,” says Abhishek of his co-star. With his current schedule he has a short time to spend with his family and the actor do miss his daughter back home. 

 “Sure I do, like any other dad, but then work is important too and not interchangeable,” adds Abhishek. As for life changing after fatherhood, the actor says that it’s changed but not taken a 360 degree turn for sure. “I still come back home to my family and look forward to it, and now I have one more person waiting for me. Also yes, the responsibilities have shot up as I am now responsible for Aaradhya too,” he explains.

Recently on promotions, Abhishek was mobbed by a group of female fans who were asking for photographs and autographs. But as time went on the questions went too personal, but as per sources, Abhishek was game for it and handled the questions on his family and wife quite sensibly and evaded a controversy!

Way to go AB, we wish your comedy does like it has done in previous!

Role not big but crucial - Irfan Khan

Fans of Irfan Khan were surprised to see the familiar face on 'The Amazing Spider-man' Trailer, he appeared to be a cool scientist on the latest trailers that were released of the movie. (trailer here). Its not the first time that Irfan has went abroad, but this was a surprise as he did not brag about this role in the movie. He was noticeably seen in the 'Slumdog Millionaire' as a cop and the main character which leads the story. But however the role in 'The Amazing Spider Man' is said to be much shorter than his previous outing but he still feels that it has an importance in the storyline.

Earlier, it was Anil Kapoor who was seen in a cameo for 'Mission Impossible4' but at the outing, Anil Kapoor was in a seemingly less important role which was just sharing the screenspace for few seconds. He had received a lot of criticism for this part, but unlike Anil's outing, Irfan still has a good scene as you could find in the trailer. 

Speaking about the length of his role in The Amazing Spider-Man, Irrfan clarified, "I don't look at how big my role is; I look at the character and what it represents to the world. The character of Dr Ratha that I play in the movie is vital as the character plays boss to the main villain (Dr Curt Connors) in the film and is the one who is pushing the transformation of Curt into The Lizard. 

Irfan has previously worked with the likes of Danny Boyle, Angelina Jolie, Ang Lee and now Mark Webb in Spider-Man. 

So we have one more reason why not to miss the new spiderman!

Aishwariya might be tardy on return

That is how it looks, Aishwariya Rai Bachchan is one celebrity mom who is still enjoying the pleasures of being a mother, and at no point does she mention her plans about the return to movies. The tardiness has come out of her love for the dear daughter Aaradhya. As any mother she is happy about the comments that was received for her baby doll and she just feels that she hasn't given enough time for the daughter. The actress was earlier rumored that she is busy signing up endorsement deals and is also on a gym schedule, eager to return back to movies.

Aishwariya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan was at London attending a diabetes charity dinner,  a Leicester-based charity founded by British MP Keith Vez. The couple took up the opportunity to open up about their family life and daughter. Aishwariya was found happy at the occasion and she says that she enjoys the family life like everyone and also handles the pressures like any other women. Although she confessed that it was tough for her to manage her career and daughter at the same moment, due to the demanding nature of films. Abhishek on the other hand was sorry that he couldn't find enough time to spend with his daughter as it was all Aishwariya through these months.

Aishwariya Rai also rubbished the claims that she was busy on a endorsement deal and gym schedule. She says that she hasn't really given a good thought about this yet. She also wondered how these rumors got there in first place. Also she said that she has been able to perform as per her wish through these years and there doesn't seem to be any dream roles that she would like to perform or which drives her back to work.

So that is Aishwariya Rai, the beautiful mom!

Aishwarya with Aaradhya

Finally actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made her first public appearence with her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan. 

Aishwarya who attended the Cannes Film festival reached Mumbai on Friday and was spotted with the little one at Chatrapati Shivaji International airport. And like always even this time Aishwarya was successful in keeping the little one away from the media.  

Abhishek Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan received Aishwarya and their six month old grand daughter Aaradhya at the airport. Abhishek went inside the airport to receive both of them while Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan were waiting outside in the car.

Aishwarya walked out of the common exit instead of the VIP exit. Aishwarya's security was not allowing the media to go close enough to click her daughter’s photos. 

A source said that, "Abhishek suddenly got angry when one camera person almost came in Aishwarya's way. He asked the man to be careful." Even Amitabh Bachchan, who was in the driver’s seat, was seen losing his cool too, when a few photographers in their attempt to capture a close-up of Baby B blocked the car’s path.

Aaradhya, was born on November 16, 2011 and till date the Bachchans have been quite successful in keeping the little one away from the harsh glance of the media.

Aishwarya's red-carpet appearance at Cannes got words of praise from film fraternity as well as media. She looked stunning in Abu Jani creations.

Salman Ponders and Vivek Digs!

There are two ways to get famous - either do something seriously classic that your work gets appreciated without any flaws, the second one is easy and quick, dig on someone that is famous and if your dig clicks then that would naturally increase your publicity. This is not the funda we have created, but it is Vivek Oberoi that is trying this trick over, the well worked trick of picking on Salman to get into the news and be noticed for his upcoming movie 'Sher'.

The actor had recently done a perss conference for his upcoming campaign, he decided to talk about 'Sher' his upcoming movie which is directed by Soham Shah. When reporters teased him with the movie having a comparison with the title 'Ek Tha Tiger' he smiled and replied "We are all wild enthusiasts. And as far as my knowledge goes, I think 'Sher' is bigger than 'Tiger'."

When reminded about Salman's other upcoming film titled Sher Khan, Vivek said, "It is a good thing... the city is filled with 'Sher(s)'."

Vivek Oberoi is staritng up the campaign against smoking 'Cigarette Bhujao Life Banao' which is to be launched on World Tobacco day. When asked about the smoking habits of leading stars like Salman and Shahrukh, he safely escaped the question saying "I know that they acknowledge that smoking is bad habit. But it's an individual decision."

The differences between Salman and Vivek had started when Vivek had dated Aishwariya Rai, Salman's ex-flame.

Sallu Ponders

No this is not on Vivek Oberoi, but it is for the Telugu remake of Dabaang - Gabbar Singh. The film directed by Harris Shankar with Pawan Kalyan in the lead is an all-round hit in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and the overseas markets.

Unlike the original, where Salman plays a Robin Hood-like supercop, the Telugu version shows Pawan as an upright policeman. Taking out the grey shades from Pawan’s character in the Telugu version worked wonders.

The movie did have few additional scenes which seems to have impressed the actor. A source said, “Salman liked the antakshari and a few other scenes and wants to use them in Dabbang 2. He might approach producer Ganesh”.

Earlier Rajnikanth had also appreciated Gabbar Singh and had quoted that he liked the movie very much.

A thinner ASH at Cannes

The 65th International Cannes Film Fetival was Aishwarya Rai's first red carpet outing after the birth of Aaradhya Bachchan and she rocked the red carpet.

Aishwarya was rarely seen after the birth of Aaradhya. She had made very few appearances one at a high profile party at the residence of Nita and Mukesh Ambani, in March this year and the wedding reception of Genelia and Riteish Deshmukh. After which there was an online debate about her post pregnancy weight.

At the Cannes film festival she was to be dressed by Jaya Bachchan's favorite designers Abu Jani-Sandeep Khosla. Her first outfit in the French Riviera was a boho-chic maxidress by little known Australian designer Angelo Katsapis. Her second outfit at Cannes was her first by Abu-Sandeep, a cream chikankari sari with an underwhelming jacket that took the place of a sari. Her third outfit was a Roberto Cavalli caftan. And the fourth was the most surprising of the lot - a spangly, dark grey Elie Saab gown.

Aishwarya confirmed that her daughter Aaradhya is accompanying her, but is not there at the event.

On the first day when asked about Aaradhya she said, "It's splendid, it's inescapable...the bliss is just wonderful. A smile from my daughter and thats it."

She added that, "She is good, she is great and she is taking a nap right now. I've actually made her go to sleep and only then it's been easy to come here. It's nap time for her."

On day two she said that, "The baby's here in Cannes, but not with me tonight, she's doing well. I can't complain about being busy with the baby because hectic is always being redefined in my life.It was easy to come tonight because I'm not making any films."

This is Aishwarya's 11th year at the International Cannes Film Festiival as the brand ambassador of L'Oreal brand.

Sorry Brad, Aishwariya is not in!

Aishwariya Rai Bachchan seems to be not yet ready or is it something else, there has been a great offer dropped by Aishwariya Rai when it came from two time Oscar nominated director Wolfgang Peterson, who is currently planning to do a historical movie. He had plans of casting the Bollywood beauty in the movie playing the role of Briseis - but unfortunately this plan isn't working good!

The movie is said to have Brad Pitt playing role opposite Aishwariya Rai (if she did the movie) but even the presence of Brad seems to be not enough a reason for the bollywood queen to accept the role. She is already training to reduce the extra weight that she has put on - but as of now we are still behind blinds on the exact reasons for the turn down.

‘Troy’ was Hollywood biggest grosser and heavyweight Brad Pitt played the lead character of Achilles.

Aish has been out of limelight for long now and when she did came out recently she was criticized for the overweight that she has put on after she had baby. So we guess she needs time for her workouts and come back in the fab style she is known for. The actress had already gained critical opinion on her roles in The Mistress of Spices, The Last Legion, The PInk Panther 2, Provoked. This is one of the factors which had directed Peterson to approach the actress.

The role is now with Rose Byrne following the turndown by Aishwariya Rai Bachchan.

She has also been famous through West for her acting style as she is known here in Bollywood. She has been a regular invitee at the Canne's and also she had increased her popularity by appearing at the Oparah's show twice!

We hope to see her soon, but it seems that its not with Brad!

Beti B did not make an appearance on Oprah Winfrey’s show

Beti B did not make an appearance on Oprah Winfrey’s new talk show, The Next Chapter.

There was a huge buzz that Oprah Winfrey might be the one to introduce Aaradhya Bachchan aka Beti B to the world on her new talk show 'The Next Chapter' and that Beti B's name would be revealed on the show, but nothing of that sort happened.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan, made a quick entry and an even quicker exit from Oprah Winfrey's new talk show, they were hardly featured on the show.

The Next Chapter did not even mention about their daughter Aaradhya Bachchan at the show. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan did not even share the pictures of their little daughter.

A source who watched the show telecasted in United States said that, “Aishwarya and Abhishek were barely featured, no mention of the baby’s name and no shot of the baby.”

Oprah tweeted a picture of her India visit, with Abhishek and her helping Aishwarya step down, and Amitabh Bachchan in the background. 

It seems as if all those who desperately wanted to see Amitabh Bachchan's grand daughter will have to wait even more just to get a glance of Beti B.

Kareena will not attend Cannes film festival

Few days back there were reports that Kareena Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are all set for a face-off, when the two will cross paths at the red carpet of Cannes International Film Festival which will be held from May 16th to May 27th. At Cannes Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will represent the international cosmetic brand she endorses and Kareena Kapoor would promote Madhur Bhandarkar's movie ‘Heroine’.

It was said that Madhur Bhandarkar’s film "Heroine" would be showcased in Cannes. Madhur had launched Heroine with Aishwarya last year at the Cannes and this time Madhur’s new heroine Kareena would be seen promoting the film. The film Heroine had been launched with much fanfare in Cannes last year, with Aishwarya playing the lead but all plans went wrong when Aishwarya announced her pregnancy after the trip to Cannes.

She later let go off the project after which Kareena was selected for the role. After that the two havn't come face-to-face.

A source said that, “Their representatives are making sure that they do not walk the red carpet on the same day.Kareena, if she does make it to Cannes, will do so to promote her film, while Ash for her brand endorsement.

But expect some fireworks to take place as Ash was once a part of the film, Kareena is right now."

After hearing all this Madhur Bhandarkar director of the movie Heroine made it clear that Kareena is too busy to attend the Cannes Film Festival this year. Madhur Bhandarkar even posted on Twitter to clear all rumours and wrote, “Media reporting that 1st look of #Heroine is going to be launched in Cannes are baseless.(sic), Me, Kareena & the whole team are busy shooting #Heroine through the whole month of April & May, so no question of visiting Cannes(sic).”

So now there will be no face off between Kareena and Aishwarya at Cannes.

There are even rumours that Asihwarya will be there with her baby Aaradhya.

Salman Khan a synonym for controversy?

No, seriously we cannot think anything else about Salman Khan, but controversy. He has been stirring up controversial statements, making wrong moves and what not. Indiaviolet totally adores him for the actor he is but really wish we could separate out Salman from controversies. The recent controversial statement by Salman just adds to the rivalry between SRK and Salman, he recently announced "Sachin ke record todna mushkil hi nahin namumkin hai...aur ye Don nahin main bol raha hoon. Aur bol bhi sakta hoon kyonki mera father (Salim Khan) ne likhi hai ye picture. Rights toh unhi ke paas ahin. Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan) ne ki thi ye picture."

SRK has been good enough to avoid a fight and says "I get numb by the kind of stories I keep hearing about myself. I try not to take them seriously or comment about them.” The conflict worsened when Salman agreed to perform at IPL opening night in Chennai, even though it meant SRK’s giving the event a skip.

He has also been said to avoid Amitabh Bachchan during the rehearsals of IPL innaugration ceremony, where the two have separate performances scheduled. He had also avoided Amitabh Bachchan during the funeral of Mona Kapoor, ex-wife to Boney Kapoor. The recent event at IPL rehearsals is creating much of a buzz and a source says ""Since Salman got to the venue around the time Amitabh was rehearsing on the stage, he chose to wait it out in his vanity van before he came on the stage,".

At the funeral, he had avoid to step out of car until Big B had paid visit and left the house. So we aren't sure why this is all so tough. We can't find any other cause that the Aishwariya Rai factor, so it seems that the past is still haunting him or he wants to avoid a bigger controversy.

Did Aaradhya visit Dubai ?

Few days back it was said that Aaradhya Bachchan would make her first trip abroad. The little one had taken her first flight to Goa in the month of February for a three day holiday with her parents. 

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made a two-day trip to Dubai. A source said, "Ash had gone there for a brand event, which took place at the Dubai World Cup, one of the fanciest horse race events in the world. 

Ash and the baby took the flight along with her mother Vrinda, the baby's nanny and her PR manager." and added, "The brand people booked a private suite for Ash and her entourage. When she is at the event, the baby will be looked after by her grandmother and nanny. It was a commitment made by Ash a while ago, so she didn't want to back out."

"Also, she is still nursing Aaradhya, who is nearly five months old. The trip was planned well in advance to get the baby's passport in order. Since this is the first time Aaradhya is travelling abroad, all necessary precautions have also been taken."

But did the four months old Beti B actually accompany her ??? She wasn't seen anywhere nor was her Daddy, not even at the event. So, who knows if they brought her along to Dubai.

Aishwarya sparkled on the red carpet for the event in a bright orange outfit with gold accents and gold flats designed by Sabyasachi.

Till now the Bachchans have successfully kept Aaradhya out of spotlight. We wonder when will she be introduced to the entire world.....

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan at Dubai World Cup

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was seen at the Dubai World Cup to present Most Elegant Lady prize.

At the presentation ceremony, she said, "It's wonderful to be here and see such finely dressed women in their hats and beautiful dresses." Unlike most of them Aishwarya wasn't seen in a hat or a dress but she in a completely traditional attire, she was draped in a bright orange traditional outfit with gold accents and gold flats designed by Indian Designer  Sabyasachi and golden sandals. She greeted everyone with folded hands (a namaskar). People around her gossiped about her baby weight but even with the post pregnancy weight she has put on Aishwarya just looked fab.

Aishwarya was present as Brand Ambassador of watch company Longines and presented the award to the Most Elegant Dressed Lady at the event. The Most Elegant Lady winner was chosen by style spotters put together by Longines, the luxury swiss watch maker. Caroline Coe, the winner of Most Elegant Lady title said, "I couldn't believe my eyes when she (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan) walked up on stage - it was unbelievable. She is so gracious."

After Aaradhya's birth and prior to the Dubai World Cup Aishwarya made very few public appearences, one when Oprah Winfrey visited India, second at Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'souza's wedding reception and then she was seen at the party thrown by the Ambani's for Sachin Tendulkar.
