Dates locked

Ranbir Kapoor will have three releases this year. We've just received confirmation that his Konkona starrer Wake Up Sid is out on October 2, whileu00a0 Rocket Singh will release on December 12.


Even though the date for Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani isn't yet fixed, the source confirms that it will release somewhere around November.

This means that the last quarter of 2009 will have not one but three Ranbir films. We hear the actor is quite concerned that these three films are releasing so close to each other and has asked the respective producers to work out a system so that none of his films clash.

Rang De

COLORS plans to celebrate their first anniversary by throwing a party, albeit with a unique twist.


As part of a nationwide celebration, named Shukriya India, the representatives of the channel visited Chatrapati Shivaji Vidyalaya, Mumbai and handed over a sponsorship certificate from the channel to the school.

As a part of this program, members of iDiscoveri will be working closely with the teachers and parents to provide better quality education to the future of India.

The celebrations begin later this month and will last till mid-July. The channel plans to include many Indian cities.

Love is... sharing germs

Saif Ali Khan appears to have passed his flu on to girlfriend Kareena Kapoor. We caught up with Kareena at Sajid Nadiadwala's success party (minus Saif).


When asked about the missing beau, she pouted, "Saif is down with a bad cold and now he has passed it on to me too.

I have been running a high fever a few days back and had even cancelled my 3 Idiots shot in Vashi. Now I might have to take it easy for a couple of days."

With both the Chote Nawab and Bebou00a0 unwell, we are wondering who will take care of the other?

The real race

The hunky John Abraham made all the right noises at the Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon press conference at the Oberoi-Trident, Mumbai last evening.


After saying how 'honoured' he was to be the brand ambassador for the event, John laughed as she said that he hoped the marathon organisers would be happy with him because he ran really fast in the movie, 'New York'.
The recently released film opened with a shot of the actor running in a college race. Ah, Mr Abraham. We wait for the day you translate reel life into real life and run in the Mumbai marathon the 42 km distance, of course.

Nappy Happy

A diaper brand and fashion designer Neeta Lulla came together to showcase their new range and to announce a new concept.






A fashion show where the celebrity babas and babies walked or crawled the ramp, took place at a five-star hotel in Bandra, Mumbai.

Abbas the Brusher

After holding workshops for the cast of 1-800-Love, director Abbas Tyrewala is now in London to give the cast a proper brief of the shoot.


Abbas says, "I have got a three-storied office in London where one floor is only meant for script-reading, rehearsals and brushing up skills.

All of the actors have attended the workshop and have understood their characters. Now is the quick brushing up by the director to make them deliver their best."
