Aamir Khan is keeping a close tab on his buddy Salman Khan’s film Wanted’s box office collections. The film has opened to bumper collections all over India in the single screens and the multiplexes collections, if not as big, has been rising steadily as well. Aamir’s Ghajini was the last Bollywood film to break big in the single screens and amass huge collections. The trade has been claiming Wanted has over taken Ghajini at many centers and this has intrigued the perfectionist Aamir more. Though most of the critics have lashed the film out, Wanted has been conquering the box office even in its second week.Incidentally, Aamir was invited personally by Salman to have a dekko of his Wanted, days before its release.

The entire Pataudi clan, former cricketer Tiger, his actress wife Sharmila Tagore and their three children, including star son Saif Ali Khan, were at Pataudi, Haryana, over the weekend sharing their ancestral home with Hollywood's Pretty Woman Julia Roberts.While Roberts, the first Hollywood celebrity to stay in Pataudi House that has now been converted to a heritage hotel, is at the Nafeez Manzil, the Pataudi family was at the main palace."Julia Roberts is our guest. She's staying in a part of our property. We've let the unit stay in a flank because she's a colleague and I know what it is like to shoot far away from home," Sharmila told over the phone from Pataudi Sunday. "We're staying in the main palace. They are staying in a separate part of the royal property known as the Nafeez Manzil. In the past, Aamir Khan shot and stayed with us for 'The Rising'. Deepa Mehta shot 'Earth' in Pataudi though that portion was edited out," said Sharmila

Recently, Deepika Padukone played a doting girlfriend to Ranbir Kapoor by throwing him a surprise birthday party and inviting some of his close friends.  She took him to a restaurant for dinner when he got back from Bhopal and he was in for a surprise when he saw that she had invited Ayan Mukherjee (director of Wake Up Sid) and some of his old school friends for his birthday party. As a birthday gift, Ranbir received a new laptop from Deepika. Now, isn’t that sweet?

Bollywood’s world famous couple- megastars Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan- live with Abhishek’s parents, the couple told “The Oprah Winfrey Show” on September 28. With about five billion fans globally, Filmfare Award winners Aishwarya Rai (Devdas), 35, and Abhishek Bachchan (Bunty Aur Babli), 33, described it as normal and absolutely natural. Abhishek’s grandparents also lived with them before they passed away. They have to abide by few household rules also- like having one meal a day together if everybody is in Mumbai, where they live. When they have time for themselves (they appear in five-six movies a year, as compared to one-two films of Hollywood actors), they spend it at home with each other, family and friends, instead of going to exotic places.
