No connections with Dawood - Pleads Sanjay Dutt

Sanjay Dutt, who was arrested in 1993 for illegal possession of arms and had also imprisoned for the same was putting up an appeal at the Supreme Court Of India against the lower court verdict to have six year imprisonment for illegal possession of arms and his alleged terrorist links. The actor was accused of having relationship and friendship with the Don Dawood Ibrahim. 

Sanjay Dutt in a confession statement produced to the court by his counsel Harish Salve, mentioned that he had met Dawood once for a dinner party but otherwise, he has no relationships with the Dawood and the details produced were incorrect. 

Salve argued before a bench of Justices P Sathasivam and B S Chauhan that the trial in a TADA court robbed Sanjay of the common law benefits for an accused as the anti-terror law took confessional statements as eviden-ce without seeking corrob-orative material to prove the offence.

"This was a pure and simple act of panic which should have been tried under Arms Act," Salve said, clarifying that Sanjay had never claimed that he was never ever friendly with underworld don Dawood Ibrahim, the alleged mastermind of the serial blasts.

"Sanjay had said he had attended a dinner at Dawood's place but had never claimed friendship with him. Sanjay's friends in the film industry used to boast of their friendship with (gangster) Tiger Memon." added Salve. The counsel also mentioned how Bollywood was linked with underworld during the dark era and Sanjay was just a victim of panic during the hours!

"Applying provisions of TADA to evaluate the confessional statements by co-accused robbed him of the opportunity to point out the inherent contradictions in them. Had common law principle of weighing evidence been applied to Sanjay's case, he would have been absolved of all charges," Salve said.

"That is because no trace of the AK-56 rifle was fou-nd on him. What was found on him was a pistol procured in September 1992 which at best could have been a minor offence under the Arms Act," he said.

Sanjay was convicted on July 31, 2007, for possessing a prohibited weapon in a case related to 1993 Mumbai blasts and was sentenced to six years' imprisonment. He has already undergone imprisonment for 16 months and was granted bail by the apex court on August 20, 2007.

Son Of Sardar : Title Music fails to impress

Although the movie trailer is quite fast and fun to watch with all the Rohit Shetty style stunts, the title music fails to impress even kids! The recent release of theatrical trailer for Son Of Sardar, starring Ajay Devgan, Sonakshi Sinha, Juhi Chawla and Sanjay Dutt looses it on the title song department, which might be pivotal for driving in the audience! (movie Trailer here)

The trailer sees Ajay Devgan narrating the situation of the world without Sardars, and its quite funny at times and with the latest image that Ajay has brought in for himself the dialogues are quite convincing too. The trouble starts in when the title music starts and its way to below average from what we have heard. Do let us know what you thought about it!

The movie showcases for the first time - Ajay Devgan and Sonakshi Sinha. Sonakshi who has had a lucky run through the box office hopes to do the magic again, also for Ajay Devgan, he hasn't had a bad outing in the recent past, most of his movies have been block busters and have also been critically acclaimed for his performance as the lead. 

The trailer also showcases Sanjay Dutt as the angry sardar, who is pairing up with Juhi Chawla. Although the screen space for Juhi and Sonakshi is much low in the trailer, it still shows a funny side of what is to happen on screen. 

SOS will also have a cameo done by Salman Khan, the 'Dabaang' star has been said to do this for friendship and hasn't asked for remuneration for the promo he did. So that will be a plus. For the rest, we will have to wait on further glimpses from SOS - do watch out our video channel for more!

Trisha drops two bollywood movies - no time!

The much acclaimed hit of 2003, Saamy is said to be remade in Hindi starring Sanjay Dutt as the lead player. The movie which portrays the life of a cop with grey shades, is something which Sanjay is keen on doing. The movie will be directed by K.S. Ravikumar, but it seems that there is still confusion on the female lead for the movie. 

It was earlier said that Trisha Krishnan who had done the female lead in the Tamil version would be doing the same in Hindi movie, but it seems that she is tight on schedule and wont be in. Trisha who had made her debut to bollywood through 'Khatta Meeta' had a cold response for the movie. Usually the trend would be that the actress would try to grab in a better role that marks her impression in Bollywood as she did in Kollywood. But no, Trisha has other plans!

Trisha was asked a bulk date of close to 100 days for the shoot and that seems to be the major reason for dropping the project, speaking to TOI Uma Krishnan, Trisha's mom said "We cannot sign the film since the makers have asked for bulk dates, which we cannot accommodate. The dates for the Bollywood film clash with the dates of our current commitments. So we are not signing the film." 

Apart from this she has also dropped the project of her best friend Prabhu Deva, citing the same reasons. Prabhudeva's next movie will be a remake of Telugu superhit "Nuvvosthanane Nenoddantana". This role has now allegedly gone to Shruthi Haasan. (news here)

Prabhu Dheva's film, will hav Kumar Taurani's (of TIPS fame) son Krish playing the male lead.

Sanjay Excited - Grants 100 days of schedule

Where Trisha is tight on date schedule, Sanjay Dutt on the other hand is quite careful about the roles he is to choose after the blazing success of Agneepath. But the remake of Saamy is something which has excited the actor very much and he has given out a commitment of 100 days outright for the project. This is said to be the longest set of days that Sanjay has given for any project.

 “Sanjay feels Saamy is one film that can do wonders to his current stature of an actor.”  says a source.

Apparently, the film's director K.S. Ravikumar has been promised that the film will not only get done in time, but also that Sanjay will give his all to it, which includes building a perfect physique and delivering a splendid performance.

We wish the same!

Salman Fires over Katrina's shoulders - Digs Hrithik, Sanjay

With the first video album of 'Ek Tha Tiger' out, the whole fans are buzzing to the tunes of 'Mashaallah'(Video Here). The actors had been present at the media room for interaction and both were congratulated for their music video and the song was played twice through the ceremony. 

Actor Salman Khan could not resistbeing his cheeky self, especially when he took some playful digs at his co-star Katrina Kaif, looking svelte in a pastel dress at an event yesterday. “The film (Ek Tha Tiger) will be a success because of her,” said Salman responding to the appreciation that Katrina garnered for the music video

With her recent songs, it has been her item numbers that have been hitting the charts more than her movies. So reporters asked if she was OK being tagged as an item girl, to which Salman Khan opted to reply even before Kats could think of a response. “It’s a favour that she (Katrina) does for her friends,” he said. “Karan Johar is her friend so she did that song in his film. And it wasn’t Hrithik’s hardwork or Sanjay Dutt’s charm that won the film accolades…it was all because of Katrina,” he quipped.

He did not stop there, he too up the attack on his movie Bodyguard as well, “Yeh toh inka baddappan hai, itna bada dil hai inka that she agrees…. Who does it these days! Even for Bodyguard we requested her to do a small number and she made it a hit,” Salman continued in the same vein, while Katrina was visibly embarrassed as we heard her mumbling “you’re gonna put me in trouble Salman.”

Good to see the couple mingling together and we are glad that the miffed up relationship is bonding back together. And the music of 'Ek Tha Tiger' is minddd Blowinggg!

Reshma will now manage Sanjay and Salman!

Sanjay Dutt has took a strong stance following the stir up with RGV and something good has happened for the actor as he bids farewell to his long time manager Dharam Oberoi. He is said to have hired in Reshma Shetty, who is also the manager to Salman Khan. Reshma who has a record of raising the star in Salman Khan to the iconic figure in the industry now will hope to serve the same for Sanjay too. Earlier RGV had mentioned that Sanjay should be careful about his business manager as he talks real bad behind him and it seems to be the after effect.

Earlier, Dutt had moved Dharam Oberoi from the post of CEO of Sanjay Dutt Productions and appointed Manyata Dutt as the new CEO. After Dharam was shown the door, Sanjay was in search of an efficient business manager to fill in the post. It should be no easy task for Reshma as she will have to work on tough to get back to the iconic Munnabhai image that the star had put up. The appointment yet has to be announced officially but the rumor is still strong in the camp.

A source close to the development revealed, "While Dutt has been outwardly sitting on the fence regarding Dharam Oberoi's future as his business manager, he has secretly been meeting up with Salman's business manager on Salman's recommendation. The deal between Dutt and Reshma Shetty is final. An official announcement will be made shortly." 

A close friend of Dutt said, "Salman has been persuading Dutt to hire Reshma Shetty for months now. But earlier, he wouldn't hear of getting rid of Dharam Oberoi. Now he sees sense in Salman's suggestion. Reshma is expected to turn around Dutt's career, seal endorsement and advertisement deals on his behalf, and help him sign the right films."

Although it would be a good life for Sanjay after this, but Dharam who has been a long time associate of Sanjay and who was powerful enough to take decisions on Sanjay's behalf will have a sinking career and we expect that it would be a bigger sink than Department!

What do you think?

Salman to host Big Boss 6

The fifth season of Bigg Boss was hosted by Salman Khan and his friend Sanjay Dutt in which Salman made limited appearances giving more opportunity for Sanjay Dutt to make his mark on TV. Previously it was even said that Salman Khan wanted his friend Sanjay to take charge as the host of the show, so this year Sanjay Dutt was supposed to take over as the full-time host.

There are many other reasons too as to why it was said that Salman Khan won't be seen in the show, the main reason being his recurring jaw pain, he also has a number of projects to complete this year.

But it seems as if Salam Khan has taken out time from his busy schedule to host Bigg Boss season six and that too without Sanjay Dutt.

A source said that, "Even though Salman is presently shooting in Thailand for a film with Katrina Kaif, the makers have already sounded him about being part of the new season as well. He has agreed to host it. He alone will be the host for the sixth season."

The source added, "The dance reality show which has Madhuri Dixit, Karan Johar and Remo Fernandes as judges will go on air first followed by a talent hunt show. Only then will Bigg Boss air."

The reality show that will go on air by the end of 2012.

Is RGV the next after Gupta?

As the controversy on 'Department' continues, it is said that although Ram Gopal Varma has stopped the buzz about being seriously interfered in his creative work, it seem that the accused persons are too strong for him to handle. It is said that Sanjay Dutt and Dharam Oberoi are furious about these acts by the director and is not leaving any chances to deface his career. It is said that Sanjay and Dharam have been spreading the news about how difficult is it to work with RGV and also spreading out that RGV isn't the person who used to be the master of creativity like in earlier years. The news is spread out quite strong and it seems that this would eventually cause RGV to loose up his upcoming projects especially the much awaited 'Sarkar 3'.

Sanjay Dutt, who is close with Abhishek Bachchan is also too influential on the actor, so if the war continues between RGV and Dutt, the ultimate loss will be RGV's as he might loose his central character for 'Sarkar 3'. "Especially since Ramu has openly blamed Abhishek for getting Sanjay in the film and then opting out himself due to unavailability of dates," reveals a source, adding, "although Amitabh Bachchan has praised Ramu's so-called rogue methodology of filmmaking in the promotional interviews, he too won't be happy with the way Department failed so miserably." 

"Sanjay and Dharam are mincing no words when it comes to blaming Ramu for the failure of Department. Even though the director has spoken about their interference harming the film, they are telling others that he has lost his touch, proof being his string of flops. So Sanjay and Dharam are saying it's not a viable option to work with Ramu," explains the source.

Its not that Sanjay Dutt can't do it, he has done it with Sanjay Gupta, the director for 'Shootout at Lokhandwala' where the actor and director fell out on financial issues. Since then Sanjay Dutt has been able to confront every actor going to work with Sanjay Gupta making him not launch a film since S@L. So being such a powerful actor, he literally jeopardized the career of Sanjay Gupta. He might not be able to do it to that extend but he might still be able to break the dream project of RGV. 

As the source divulges, "There were reports about how Sanjay Dutt tried to take Anil Kapoor and John Abraham out of doing the film. Vivek Oberoi, who patched up with Sanjay last year, couldn't upset him and opted out of Gupta's film. If Dutt could jeopardize Gupta's career, he can sabotage Sarkar 3." Sanjay Gupta is planning to release his movie this year under Ekta Kapoor's production house.

Although officially Dharam Oberoi and Sanjay Dutt's associates claim they do not have this power to break career. "Sanjay has been in the industry for over three decades. Why would he stoop low to ask any actor to not work with a particular director? Anil Kapoor and John Abraham are working with Sanjay Gupta. So the question of Sanjay Dutt asking actors to not work with Ramu doesn't arise. People will say all sorts of things, but truth will always prevail," says Dharam Oberoi.

We will wait to see the fate of Sarkar 3!

RGV on Dutt - unprofessional and as unimaginably erratic

As the movie 'Department' nose dives, it is as if the director was waiting for it to happen. He has now started to reveal the troubles he had while making the movie and how the actor Sanjay Dutt intervened the storyline of the movie and had forced him to make changes to the screenplay. Ram Gopal Varma had high hopes when he designed the movie 'Department' but unfortunately the movie failed terribly without even making a slightest of impacts on-screen. RGV still doesn't blame anyone but himself for the failure of the movie but feels that it wouldn't have been so if Sanjay Dutt wasn't casted in the movie!

"It is dangerous to start changing the content and screenplay midway through a film because it is so easy to lose your objectivity. So when they compelled me to do that by using various coercive forces halfway through the film since I was anyway stuck, I had a professional commitment to finish the film and had to wait until now." says RGV in rage. And he explains about the failure of the movie "I am not blaming anyone except myself. The biggest mistake I made was to go to an actor as unprofessional and as unimaginably erratic as Dutt."

It is also said that Sanjay Dutt forced RGV to drop off Kangana Ranaut from the movie and he says "Yes. Dharam told me Sanjay wanted Kangana to be dropped and since it's a predominantly male-dominated action film, I didn't want to make an issue. I also wish Sanjay Dutt realises what Dharam talks behind his back and for his sake, I hope he distances himself from Oberoi before it is too late." as the director takes on Dharam Oberoi, the producer for the movie. 

He words the interventions by Sanjay Dutt and co-producer Dharam Oberoi quite seriously and furiously "The problems were innumerable, ranging from Dutt's coming late to last-minute cancellation of shoots and schedules to erratically wanting to change the content of scenes in the name of creative discussions that are not to be confused with mindless interference. "

Dutt had trouble with Camera's I was using!

"Not only him, even Amitji and Rana had but when they saw the quality of the film, they were happy and they spoke about it in the media too. In fact, Amitji spoke about it as the future of cinema even after the release and the reviews. The problem wasn't about using the cameras but the way they were used in terms rapid panning, some unseen angles and some deliberately jerky moments. However, these were hardly eight to 10 shots in the film. Otherwise, usage of these cameras is prevalent the world over, including in the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire." says RGV. 

About the Message sent to Abhishek Bachchan

Another news that was spreading was that RGV had sent out an SMS to Abhishek Bachchan blaming him as the cause for casting Sanjay Dutt, the sms wordings is said to be "You brought this disease into my life by recommending Sanjay Dutt". When asked by TOI, RGV says "No messages happened between Abhishek and me with regard to this but the truth is that when Abhishek was supposed to do Rana's role, it was he who convinced me about Dutt against my better judgement. Later on, he couldn't do the film and I was left with Dutt. So I definitely blame Abhishek for making me go through this though it was unintentional on his part."

RGV opens up on Aamir - and Clash between them

The tiff between RGV and Aamir Khan is famous and both haven't had the time to comment on each other, but it seems that the latest interventions has made him talk about the Aamir Khan issue with his movie 'Rangeela'. He says "Aamir and me had creative differences during Rangeela but I didn't pay heed to the mistakes he pointed out. Despite Rangeela becoming a blockbuster, when I saw the film much later, I felt I had gotten away with the mistakes that he had pointed out. I genuinely believe Rangeela would have been a bigger hit had I listened to Aamir. The difference being Aamir's suggestions and observations came from a long and intense deliberation on his part and not like Dutt who was blurting out without thinking, encouraged by the likes of Dharam who pander to him for their personal benefits."

About his lost focus comments.

A lot of the media is mentioning that RGV, who has always touched the subjects which are off-beat seems to be loosing focus on his movies. When TOI asked him whether this was the case he openly rubbished the comments by saying "Since everyone has a mouth, everyone will have an opinion. The people who work with me know how focused I am and so I would advise people who are not concerned with me to rather focus on themselves instead of focusing on my focus."

Furious as he can be. RGV still feels its bad outing with Department, we hope he recovers and get back to the movies he is known better for.

Big B trusts me a lot as a director : RGV

Ram Gopal Varma, one of the most outrageous directors, if one could name him so finds Amitabh Bachchan as the best of heroes that he has worked with. RGV known for handling the topics which are mostly untouched and giving the movies a different touch is happy for the trust that Big B has put upon him and he is happy that Big B has agreed for his movies. The duo has given industries best hits like Sarkar and Sarkar Raj which was a trend changer in Bollywood. 

"When it comes to favourite actor, the only name I will take is Mr. Bachchan. He trusts me a lot as a director. So far it has not happened that I have approached him for a role and he has said no. Sometimes it (films) work, sometimes it doesn't. But somewhere he knows my commitment and that my work comes with lot of seriousness," the 50-year-old said.

The roles that RGV has given to Amitabh Bachchan has been challenging and has chiseled out the true actor in him and has also given him the opportunity to perform in most outrageous of roles that was ever displayed in Indian cinema, be it the role of Gabbar in 'Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag' or 'Rann' which were few of the movies which did not go well in the box office.

If you ask Ramu about whats the best movie he like about Big B, he answers quick "I honestly feel Big B's best performance is done in Nishabd," says the director.

RGV is currently finishing up the movie 'Department' which stars Big B again in a gangster role and this is expected to be a raw story on the alleged police and gangster connections. The movie also stars Sanjay Dutt, Rana Duggabati and Madhushalini who is making her debut to bollywood. The item girl Nathalia Kaur has already made the item song 'Dan Dan' famous!

Sanjay Dutt Sings for Department

Once again the mighty voice which gave life to songs like Aye Shivani or the Bole To in MunnaBhai MBBS or the famous song from Kaante will be heard as the movie Department's end credits role. The new song is a last minute addition to the mighty project from Ram Gopal Varma. It seems that after all those raunchy teasers, RGV is not full yet about the movie. 

The song by Sanjay is written by Sandeep Chowta and will be choreographed by Ahmed Khan. "The peppy edgy number has been composed by Sandeep Chowta and Mr.Dutt would be recording the song in his own voice. There's no doubt that Sanjay Dutt is a major attraction after Agneepath. We want to make sure he is projected as the film's USP," adds a source. 

Choreographer Ahmed Khan confirmed the shooting of the additional song for the movie, which also features Rana Daggubati and megastar Amitabh Bachchan. "Yes, we are shooting a song for Department. It's a music video to be sung by Baba (Sanjay). He and I are getting together once again after Aye Shivani in Sanjay Chhel's Khoobsurat (he sang it and I shot it). This time it's an edgy song with no dancing," Khan said.

Department is another action thriller from Ram Gopal Varma and has Sanjay Dutt, Amitabh Bachchan and Rana Duggabati as the lead roles. RGV alls brings in the new sensation 'Nathalia Kaur' from Brazil for this movie and he is adding more spices to the story. The plot of movie 'Department' might still be tangled around the underworld and its holy connection with the Police department. 

We hope this is not the usual masala flick, that RGV enjoys and others fail to do so!

The actor was seen in "Yamla Pagla Deewana" as a Jat and even in  "Chaar Din Ki Chandani" as a royal Rajput. Mukul Dev will be seen playing a Jat in "SOS" as well.

He said, "I don't mind that image as long as I get good offers. Yes, 2-3 of my movies have me playing a Sikh/ Jat, but apart from that, I have other good projects where I have a lot of scope to showcase my talent like "Afratafri" with Govinda and Ram Gopal Varma's "Bezwada Rowdies." 

Son Of Sardar is an upcoming Bollywood romantic comedy film directed by Ashwani Dhir, and produced by Ajay Devgn's home production house. The film features Ajay Devgn, Juhi Chawla, Mukul Dev, Vindoo Singh, Sanjay Dutt and Sonakshi Sinha in the lead roles. The distribution rights of the movie are bought by UTV Pictures.

Model turned actor Arjan Bajwa is also a part of this comedy flick. The trip to Patiala however doesn't seem to be quite pleasent for the two of them.

Actors Ajay Devgn and Arjan Bajwa are down with stomach infection.

A source close to the film said, "Both the actors Ajay and Arjan have been sick for sometime following a stomach infection which might have been triggered by some food poisoning." 

Both Ajay Devgn and Arjan Bajwa who suffered from food poisoning over the weekend are taking antibiotics for the same. Though their co-stars Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha and Tanuja also consumed the stuff, nothing happened to them. We surely hope that the actors get well soon.

Big B to play Bhishma Pitamah

69-year-old star Amitabh Bachchan who is known for his deep baritone voice has lent it to the rock-solid iconic character of Bheeshma Pitamah in an upcoming animated film Mahabharat produced by Jayantilal Gada of PEN India and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi.

Producer Jayantilal Gada said, "Amitabh Bachchan has lent his voice to the role of Bheeshma Pitamah in our animated film Mahabharat. He finished the entire recording in one hour, which was very shocking for us. He has such a command over the language that he even corrected minor grammatical mistakes in the dialogues." 

Jayantilal Gada couldn't stop talking about Amitabh Bachchan's simplicity and generous nature, he added, "He did not charge us for his work. Our entire team is grateful to him. We could not have done the film without him as we can't imagine any other voice for the role of Bheeshma Pitamah.”

The characters from the epic will have voices and looks of 15 Bollywood stars. Apart from Amitabh Bachchan the 150 crore animated movie Mahabharat will have Sunny Deol as ‘Bheem’ and Arjun Rampal as ‘Arjun’, while Sanjay Dutt will play the role of ‘Duryodhan’. The director has also signed Ajay Devgan for the role of ‘Lord Krishna’. It is even said that Aishwarya Rai will enact the role of ‘Draupadi’. 

The animated film Mahabharat will be made in two parts simultaneously and will be released in two separate versions of two and half hours each, because the duration of the film will exceed 5 hours. Even though both would be ready at the same time, the second part will be released at least after a 6-months gap. The movie is expected to release in October.

Actor Salman Khan will not be hosting the sixth season of Bigg Boss.

This year Salman Khan will not be hosting the sixth season of Bigg Boss. The actor was seen in the fourth as well as the fifth season of Bigg Boss, his presence even helped the show to shoot up its TRP.

There were alot of controversies about Salman in the fifth season like Salman showed favoritism with contestant Mahak Chahal, contestants Shakti Kapoor and Pooja Bedi also spoke against Salman after the show, well these can also be the reason as to why Salman decided not to host the  television reality show Bigg Boss season 6. There are many other reasons too as to why Salman Khan won't be seen in the show, the main reason being his recurring jaw pain, he also has a number of projects to complete this year.

In the fifth season Salman Khan was joined by his friend Sanjay Dutt, Salman made limited appearances giving more opportunity for Sanjay Dutt to make his mark on TV.

Ram Gopal Varma's new item girl: Nathalia Kaur

Ram Gopal Varma, who tried his best to cast porn star Sunny Leone for an item number found a better replacement. Nathalia Kaur, a brailian model who has impressed RGV so much that he just can't stop praising her.

On twitter Ram Gopal Varma confirmed that he wanted Sunny Leone to do the item number but it did not happen. He tweeted, “We were trying for Sunny Leone but by God's grace it didn't work out or else we would have lost out on someone as divine as Nathalia Kaur and I thank God for that.”

RGV has gone crazy over Nathalia's beauty so much that he can't stop praising and admiring her. He says, "In my entire career, I have never seen a woman more beautiful than Nathalia.”

He even posted, “I never hid a fact that am a devotee of womans beauty..but I havn't seen anyone more beautiful than Nathalia kaur who did dan dan song in Department. I didn't ever see a Nathalia kind of combination of a classically beautiful face with an angel like body and then so highly expressive”

RGV had previously approached Sunny Leone for the number, but the Indo-Canadian adult star did not accept his offer due to some reason. Nathalia Kaur will be seen dancing alongside Rana Daggubati and Sanjay Dutt in the item song 'Dan dan' in the film Department.

Salman Gets Angry!

Salman Khan who is normally a cool tempered person, atleast for the past few years, has been maintaining his good image. But when something really bad happens, he is sure to take his old avtar back and ensure that there is no bad events happening. The recent fierce anger from Salman happened at the Bigg Boss house when Siddharth and Mahek's fight went out of control.

Salman has always respected women and this time too, it wasn't for a different cause. Siddharth was found calling names to Mahek through the week's show and this irritated the superstar. Salman even seems to have said that he will hit Siddharth if this event happens again, but the dialogue was later edited from the aired show, which is still ferocious.

Salman's ire seemed to be rather justified in this case. And his co-host Sanjay Dutt wasn't any less perturbed by Siddharth's behaviour on the reality show. It's a good thing that Sid has tried to change his ways, although we aren't sure that a leopard can ever change its spots. 

Let's wait and watch, what unravels in this crazy house...

No human is 'common' in my eyes - Big B

As his show, 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' reaches new heights and also gains more TRP than any running show on Indian Television, Big B is still humble to be part of this movement. The man who had revolutionized the television industry in 2000 comes back with superb again, and he says ''Koi bhi insaan chota nahin hota''. This was the slogan taken up by the new season of Kaun Banega Crorepati and Amitabh Bachchan is glad that it lives up to the reputation.

In an interview to TOI he mentioned that he is glad to be part of this production crew which has given him immense confidence through to run the show. He said "One had never imagined that even after 11 years it would still be able to garner the interests of TV audiences the way it has. There is a sense of joy and appreciation for all those that worked meticulously in putting this production together -the channel and Siddharth Basu's production house."

He said that everyone has a special skill attached to himself/herself and KBC has been a medium which has exploited this skill and has rewarded the participants. And he emphasized the fact that no human is common in his eyes. When asked about the competition he had from leading stars like Hrithik Roshan, Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt with their own shows, Amit ji mentioned that there was nothing wrong with his show and was still running good. He said "I never came across any so called comparisons, and quite honestly these delusions exist in the minds of the media only.But all the stars you mention have a great following and standing in our industry and would not have been chosen for their respective programmes if they were not considered competent enough. Yes, I have watched all their shows, and each one has his own unique presence. They all were and are very good."

The show is already breaking the TRP charts and it is still the number one show. Amitabh Bachchan also confirmed that he is charted for the next season of KBC as well. When asked about the TRP's and his opinion, he said "I am afraid I have not been able to understand the whole TRP business and have no idea how it functions."

Well that is how simple he is and we will be happy to see him again over the next season!

Ultimate Dance God! - Hrithik Roshan

When Hrithik started up the show 'Just Dance' it was a revolution on the small screen. The TRP ratings for the show was at all time high, even with negative factors like Farah Khan and Vaibhavi! The show went out to be a super duper hit which did make the Indian audience move from their usual schedule and to watch the talented actor move!

The whole of bollywood does praise the actor for his dancing talents and there are no better replacements for Hrithik Roshan himself when it comes to dancing. The actor has proved it again and again and leave his audience mouth open when he finishes an act! There has been a jewel to his crown when Ormax Media, an advertising firm conducted a survey on 'Character India Likes' and this was no doubt crowned by Hrithik Roshan. Sailesh Kapoor, the CEO of Ormax Media mentioned "what works for Hrithik is the immense trust that people has over his dancing talents. When it comes to dance, there is no star close to him!".

Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik's Best Buddy thinks "Duggu was wary of doing this show initially, but has done an extremely great job. I was with the show for 20 minutes and I could feel the positive energy that he infused into it. Duggu is unsurpassable as a dancer".

Karan Johar had thoughts on this and mentioned that "Hrithik has a extremely charming demeanor when it comes to television, his interaction with participants were endearing. He has emerged as the most popular star on television with this show".

As for Sanjay Dutt, he concedes, "It is dogged determination and hard work that have made Duggu scale new heights.''
