Is Aamir Khan a spoilsport? Friends of the star defend his decision to deny Sahara a no objection certificate to make a spoof of his blockbuster Oscar nominated film ‘Lagaan’. Titled 'Thakaan' the film was slated to have comic Johnny Lever play Bhuvan. Most spoofs planned by the producer Sahara India Parivar have Jhonny playing the lead; in Bewada ( a take on Devdas) he plays Devdas to Jaspal Bhatti’s Chunnilal.
We say, lighten up, AK!


Sanju is God, hunh? They sure believe that in Bollywood after the success of Munnabhai. The deadly Dutt is playing God in Boney Kapoor's 'Dost-My Best Friend', a Harley Davidson-riding cool cat of a god! Mahesh Manjrekar’s 'Life Ho To Aisi Hai' has Sanju Dada playing Yamraj! Looks like he has captured all three worlds, the earth, heaven and hell!

The new Bollywood ‘it’ girl Mallika Sherawat is sure going places! She plays Jackie Chan’s sister in a Hollywood production titled ‘Myth’. Next up will be playing Rekha’s sister in a new film by Govind Menon. Incidentally, Menon was instrumental is giving Mallika her first big hit ‘Khwahish’.

’Silsila to be remade!’, Screamed headlines in India recently. Rituparno Ghosh is supposed to have invited Amitabh, Jaya and Abhishek to star in the film. Ghosh is currently busy with a Hindi film starring Amit and Shabana and a Bengali film starring Abhishek and Saif’s lil sister Soha in the lead.

Amisha Patel has served her father Amit Patel a legal notice charging him with "mismanaging" her accounts and assets amounting to Rs.120 million and has demanded the immediate payment of money due to her. Amisha has left her parental home and is staying in a rented flat.
The legal notice sent by her lawyer Vibhav Krishna asks Amit Patel "to settle her accounts immediately failing which she would file a suit for mismanagement of her assets".

Did Shah Rukh Khan refuse Asutosh ‘Lagaan’ Gowrikar’s ‘Swades?’ A not-so-little Bollywood bird tells that Asutosh is trying to woo Salman Khan to do the role now.

The apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree, we see. Harivansh Rai Bachchan’s son, Amitabh and written a decent piece for Tina Ambani’s magazine ‘ Harmony’. Anil and Amit being close chums, the big B agreed to write his first ever mag column for the inaugural issue of ‘ Harmony’.

After Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein, Gautham Menon has been kinda quiet. Now we hear that he plans a remake of the Telugu Blockbuster film Kaakha Kaakha.(Jyotika and Surya played the lead). Sunny Deol is supposedly very excited to be considered for the lead role.
