Taruni receives last rites

Late on this, but we are still shocked by her departure. The cute and bubbly girl which really added character to Amitabh Bachchan's role in Paa, Taruni Sachdev. The shock that her departure has left in minds of millions is still strong and when her body received last rites we pray silently for her and may god keep her in the sweetest of places up over us!

Taruni Sachdev, the famous child artist had recently met her death in the plane crash at Nepal, which had took the lives of 15. Her body was brought to Mumbai from Kathmandu through cargo along with her mother's body at 3 p.m on Wednesday. The funeral took place at Santa Cruz (West) cremation ground at 5.30 p.m. Her mother was also cremated at the same time.

"Woh bhagwan ki beti thi, bhagwan ke paas chali gayi (She was god's daughter, she has gone to god)," Taruni's father told reporters.

Her maternal uncle said: "Apni maa ke saath teerth yatra par gayi thi aur yeh sab ho gaya (She had gone on a pilgrimage with her mother). We are still in state of shock."

Taruni was among 13 Indians who were killed when an aircraft crashed into a hill while coming in to land at Jomsom in western Nepal.

At 14, she had already featured in almost 50 ads, including a commercial for Rasna, and did a cameo in Paa, apart from featuring in Malayalam films Vellinakshtram and Sathyam. 

No stars were present at the cremation, but Amitabh Bachchan, who played her school friend in Paa, condoled her death through a Twitter post, and sent a personal letter of condolence to the bereaved family.

Our prayers for you little angel!

Sunny Leone for Chaze Mobiles - New Endorsement

Sunny Leone is here to stay as she bags in yet another endorsement and this time it is for 'Chaze Mobiles' one of the emerging mobile companies in India. The signing amount is yet undisclosed, but it is said to be a humongous one considering the star value and the impact she has on the industry. The Canadian-Indo adult movie star has already grabbed in few offers on endorsement and the recent one was for ManForce condoms. 

Sunny Leone is shooting to fame with each day, right from her entry to 'Bigg Boss 5' house, where she made a stir and this did give Mahesh Bhatt the opportunity to think about 'Jism 2'. He had took the pain to enter the Bigg Boss house and did convince Sunny for the role. She has been training in gym as well as in Hindi lessons to make the debut the best one. She has also been a hot seller in adult movies too as she had completed few of her movies during the break from Bigg Boss and signing in of Jism 2. Her movie Black Shama is still in demand. 

"This is my first TVC for any Indian brand and I am very charged up shooting for it. I am very excited to be associated with such a young and vibrant brand like Chaze. I chose to associate with the 'Brand Chaze' because I am really impressed by Chaze's ideology of bringing out mobile technology for the masses and personally feel connected with their vision," Leone said. 

Delhi-based Chaze Mobiles seems to be banking on Leone's popularity to create a brand recall among consumers and create a toe-hold in the over-crowded Indian mobile handset market. Chaze will begin selling low-cost feature-rich phones in the Rs 1,500 to Rs 3,500 range through distribution network spread across Uttar Pradesh, J&K, West Bengal, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujrat, M.P, Maharashtra, Bihar, North East and Andhra Pradesh. Chaze's mobile phones will sport features like dual-sim, touch and type, longer battery life, answering machine spy camera besides games and applications including the popular Angry Birds. 

Sunny has also grabbed in the sequel for 'Ragini MMS' which she would be doing after she finishes 'Jism 2'.

Azad Rao Khan - Aamir's new promo tool

Now if you were wondering who is Azad Rao Khan - then it is Aamir Khan's five-month old son. Yes, Aamir is trying everything it seems (*desperate?) to promote his upcoming TV show - Satyameva Jayate. It will defy the logic of any sensitive or caring father, but when it comes to the Mr. Perfectionist, he is clear on what he is planning to do.

It is said that Aamir came up with the idea of including his son Azad into the promos, as he was always on Aamir's lap as Aamir Khan prepared for his TV show and was hearing the narrations from the crew. So he planned to get the shots of his son in his lap while Kiran Rao was away. Hence the promo video was shot with Azad, but as for any mother, Kiran was unhappy about this and has strictly said not to air the promos including her son. We are still not sure if Aamir has different plans!

It is said that Kiran wants to keep the video though, but for family viewing only. Azad's pic is something which the media has been hunting for long, similar to what happened with Aaradhya Bachchan, Abhishek's daughter. But Aamir had kept this as a private affair and has not released any pic of Azad yet. But it seems that Aamir might show him off with the promos, we will never know!

Aamir has been keeping the affairs of Satyamev Jayate on the edge and has made audience to wear their thinking caps as no outsider has the real idea of what the show is about. But all we know is that he is putting all efforts in and going over the boundaries to promote this show. Earlier Aamir had kept his house, his wife and now his son under close guard, but with the promos he is ready to open it out to the public. As we have already seen his house too in promos.

So we will have to wait and see if the promos come on air and finally wait for the show to see why this is getting so thrilling for the actor!

Juhi and Shahrukh Pairs Again!

If you were to talk about pairing of Shahrukh Khan and Juhi Chawla, we wouldn't miss the fun and comedy that they added to their romantic roles and one couldn't even miss the charming smile of Shahrukh or the gigling of Juhi for that matter. It has been long since we have seen the pair onscreen - although they still remain strong buddies and business partners.

It is for an ad movie that we will see the two come in together, (*we wish it were a movie) for Matix Forex commercial. But the plot is being written and directed by Kabir Sadanand, and he plans to add in the comic touch to the ad that the onscreen pair is known for. The ad is said to be a sequel to the previous commercial that was aired for Matrix Forex.

The new commercial will show the actors as Judge and Criminal, where SRK will be playing the criminal and Juhi will be the judge. They acted together in films like ‘Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman’, ‘Yes Boss’, ‘Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani’. The duo was last seen together in 2008 film ‘Bhootnath’ and this is going to be their first commercial together.

Both of them were also business partners. They started a production house together namely Dreamz Unlimited before Shah Rukh took it over in 2004 and made it Red Chillies Entertainment.  The advertisement also features cricketers Brett Lee, Yusuf Pathan and Brendon McCullum. It will be aired soon.
