It's not Nandy!

A friend of Lara-Dino insists that although they are having differences, they haven't split. "And it has nothing to do with Nandita Mahtani.

Just because she is still friends with Dino, someone is trying to malign her. It is ridiculous to suggest she wants Dino back.

She is far too dignified and classy to make eyes at another woman's man." We agree. No relationship ends because of an outside factor.

The Movies I Loved Growing Up

Uday Chopra

The Dhoom actor on hisu00a0 fave five films...

Amar Akbar Anthony: I have watched this film several times as a kid. The character of Anthony fascinated me and the way Amit uncle has played it. Also Manmohan Desai was at his peak and this is one of his best works. I think as a kid I could watch this movie any number of times without getting bored.


Kranti: I was obsessed as a child about Manoj Kumar's Kranti. I don't know what it was about the film but we all would sit and watch it. Then I would pretend to be Kranti and play the role with my friends. It was also a very patriotic film, but as kids I enjoyed it more from the fun angle. The film had some really entertaining dialogues.


Dharamveer: Again a Manmohan Desai film, and everything about the film was so entertaining. I remember watching Dharam ji dressed up as a gladiator and at that point it was something very new. Also the film had some great action adventure scenes in it.

DON: The original Don really blew my mind when it released. It was so ahead of its time in terms of style and technique. Also the songs were great and Amit uncle did a fabulous job in the lead role. This is clearly one film that stands out in my memory.

Angoor: I think Angoor is easily the best comedy ever. I think if anyone wants to remake the film then they should contact me and I would love to be a part of it. It easily tops my list of my all time favorite films I grew up watching.

Celebration time

Jaya Bachchan took a break from canvassing for the Samajwadi Party and started shooting for an untitled new film on her birthday (April 9) at Suchak Bungalow,Madh Island.

At a time when her party needed its star campaigner, Mrs B convinced senior leaders to allow her to shoot for Revathy S Verma film, being produced by Preya Arora.

The film has her in the role of a woman who fights everything wrong in the system. The cast includes Raveena Tandon, Ayesha Takia Azmi and Urvashi Sharma.

It is a remake of a Tamil original. It will be shot in two long spells and it is being produced under the banner of Hari Om Sai Productions.

Meanwhile

On Thursday night, there was an impromptu party held at the Bachchan residence Jalsa, here is a dekho at who turned up to wish the birthday girl...

Manish's collection introduced sports wear mixed with evening wear,u00a0 making it stylishly sporty.

Undisclosed location

Aamir Khan has vanished for two months and no one knows where. But before going he informed his friends that he won't even be available on his phone.

Here is what he blogged before leaving:u00a0 "Finally! I am on holiday with my children. After two years of working pretty much 24/7.

Unfortunately Kiran is not with us as she is busy with her film.u00a0 So I'm going to go off the map for the next two months folks.

I think I needed a break in any case, as I was kind of not really there last couple months, if you know what I mean. So I will see you now in June. Or end May.

Unless I start turkeying in which case I'll drop a line. And once I'm back rested from my holiday I'll be much more connected.
