The flats on top floor of the apartment that is on construction just opposite Fortune Heights have nothing much to do with the whopping prices of real estate properties in Bandra west. It is the apartment owned by Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor on the tenth floor of Fortune Heights that has set the prices of flats in the upcoming multistoried building on fire.

Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan immortalized the character of Vijay Dinanath Chauhan in the 1990’s movie Agneepath. After two decades, filmmaker Karan Johar is going to revive the character with today’s superstar Hrithik Roshan.

With I Hate Luv Storys being the flavour of the season and brickbats still coming in for a debacle called Raavan, the newer releases were royally ignored. Films like Krantiveer – The Revolution and Mr. Singh Mrs. Mehta were never expected to change the face of Indian cinema. But the least that the makers would have expected was to have a face-saving release, if not an opening.

With the marriage problem of Shravani (Pooja Pihal) and Manav (Sushant Rajput), the story of ‘Pavitra Rishta’ is set to break the hearts of many. Since the divorce of Archana (Ankita Lokhande) and Manav, the show has lost its sheen and the TRPs have suffered a nosedive. Chances for TRPs to drop down more than before are thick after today’s episode showing Manav and Archana in estrangement from each other.

British film and television actor Dev Patel, who became popular after playing the role of Jamal Malik in Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire, has cleared the air for everyone, by announcing that he is not engaged to his longtime girlfriend Freida Pinto.

If Bollywood's future for the second decade of the millennium is to be gauged, 2010 is just the right year. Ranbir Kapoor, Shahid Kapoor, Imran Khan and Neil Nitin Mukesh are said to be the future of Hindi film industry and each of the actors has prestigious films lined for release this year. Shahid Kapoor has got success in the form of 'Badmaash Company' while Neil Nitin Mukesh is gearing up for 'Lafange Parinde'. Meanwhile Ranbir Kapoor has seen a blockbuster for himself in the form of 'Raajneeti'. Now it's the turn of Imran Khan to repeat the same with 'I Hate Luv Storys' which is carrying very good reports.

When even successful makers like Karan Johar turn to ‘numerology’ to spell their film titles, it only makes people like us more proud. His latest outing ‘I Hate Luv Storys’ has already created super craze amongst the youth, mainly due to its soulful music and catchy promos. But will the film leave up to the hype and sky high expectations?

Recently, Bollywood actress Manisha Koirala wedded a Nepali businessman Samrat Dahal. The actress has signed her first film, post marriage, where she will be essaying the role of a politician.

When 'Raavan' opened to below average houses on Friday, it was mauled by the audience as well as the critics and showed no improvement over the weekend, it was certain that this Mani Ratnam film won't even become a respectable disaster like 'Kites'. Respectable? Because 'Kites', despite all its negatives and nothing much to write home about, still managed a good first weekend for itself that helped it come closer to the 50 crore mark as the lifetime total. This means that the film had the ignominy of being the biggest disaster ever with the highest total for a disaster/flop tag. Before 'Kites', the 'position' was held by 'Chandni Chowk to China', 'Delhi 6' and 'Tashan' which were the 'highest grossing flops' ever with a final total managing to cross 30 crores.

Saif avoided cameras and paparazzi pictures until his departure to Morocco this week in order to avoid giving away his Agent Vinod look. But man proposes, Aamir disposes. Aamir insisted that Saif make it to the party at his home last weekend, thereby blowing the whistle on Saif’s carefully-concealed look. On the eve of his departure to Morocco for the shooting of his second home production Agent Vinod, Saif Ali Khan, completely revamped his look and went into hiding until he left the country.

Madhur Bhandarkar is all set to perform ‘Operation Salvage’ on Shruti Haasan’s career.

Bollywood has seen many daring actors like Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgan, do the dare devil stunts themselves. These daring acts have probably inspired the hot actress Kareena Kapoor to try her hand at stunts too.
