Marriage is definitely turning out to be sweet surprises and mushy romance for Shilpa Shetty who is in for a surprise visit from her husband on her birthday on June 8.

An ecstatic Shilpa wrote on her blog: “Glad Raj is back to celebrate my 1st birthday after marriage on the 8th of June. He has instructed my manager to keep 7th, 8th, 9th free to surprise me with a break (Yes, he’s full of surprises! He’s made arrangements for a trip but I have no idea where to… too sweet, all very exciting).”

The actress, at prestn, is being seen on the smaller screena as the judge of the reality show ‘Zara Nachke Dikha’ where the female participants paid tribute to her by performing on the medley of some of her hit numbers.

Bollywood stars have always lent their support for social causes. This time they dazzled the ramp at a fashion show to create awareness about the increasing rate of female foeticide in the country. The stars to shine on the ramp were Zeenat, actors Barbara Mori, Zarine Khan, Soha Ali Khan, Amrita Rao, Perizaad Zorabian, Yukta Mookhey, Suchitra Krishnamurthy, Neelam Kothari, Shilpa Shetty, Mugdha Godse, Suchitra Pillai, Tulip Joshi, Isha Koppikar, Jackie Shroff, Shakti Kapoor and Gulshan Grover.

Archana Kochhar designed the clothes titled `Beti`. The designer said, “We have organised this show to generate mass social awareness about the evil practice of female foeticide and thus help the society to ponder over eradicating such a gruesome deed.”

Zeenat Amaan said, “I really believe in the cause, I have been my mother`s daughter, we were really close and I was never brought up to feel that I was anything less than a boy. All opportunities were given to me and I may have two sons but I miss having a daughter and I really do believe in the cause and that`s why I am here.”

“We were walking not for fashion but for a cause and for such a contemporary cause and I say this as a contemporary cause because this problem is going on for ages and it is major threat to all of us but in terms of combating it, in terms of fighting it we have yet to do a lot,” said Amrita Rao.

This is the third time there has been mishaps on the sets of Parmeet Sethi’s ‘Badmaash Company’. This time the cause of the accident was the chandelier which was being used to enhance the décor during the shoot of a music video for the film on Sunday at MT Studio, Andheri. The chandelier came down on the sets and if Shahid Kapoor had not been agile and swift enough to pull Anoushka towards him, it would definitely have hurt the pretty lass.

The movie is being made under the banners of Yash Raj films and is being produced by Aditya Chopra. It is slated for release in May this year.

It was the telly show ‘Big Brother’ which gave a U-turn to Shilpa Shetty’s sinking career.

Once again, the pretty lady is back to make her presence felt on the smaller scree, this time as a reality dance reality show judge, ‘Zara Nach Ke Dikha’. Another feature of this show is that it will have the item girl Rakhi Sawant and ex-boyfriend Abhishek Awasthi contest each other.

Dino Morea has had a reputation of a bad lover boy in our tinsel town having a series of linkups right from Bipasha Basu, Lara Dutta to Nandini Mahtani. Kangana Ranaut too had linkups and ugly breakups with Aditya Pancholi and Adhyayan Suman. Since, both these actors seems to be single at present nursing their wounds from the last breakup, they decided to fall into each other’s arms for solace. The occasion was Sanjay and Manyata Dutt’s second marriage anniversary where the duo had quite a good time mingling with each other.

The eye witnesses say that despite this being their first mmeting, both of them were very comfortable with each other and were chatting away intimately. Before leaving together, they hugged each other rather warmly with the peck on the cheek.

The party had other hot celebrity guest too with the likes of Shilpa and Raj Kundra, Sunil and Mana Shetty, Fardeen and Natasha Khan, David Dhawan and wife Lalli, Kirron Kher and Amar Singh and so on.

After Shilpa Shetty, Bipasha Basu too has come out with her fitness DVD titled ‘BB Love Yourself’. The first release from Bips will be Fit & Fabulous, a do-it-yourself DVD devised for a 25-minute workout which promises to cut fat and tone up muscles.

Bipasha Basu, who has always been a fitness freak says, “Love yourself is my philosophy in life, hence the brand’s name. It is not a narcissist attitude (to use her initials) because I truly believe that we all must love ourselves before we set out to achieve anything, whether it’s a work goal or a relationship and the first step here is to get fit, as everyone wants to look good.”

Fitness is what Bipasha believes in and the entire concept of this DVD is hers inspired by this belief in health and fitness. “Films, fitness and fashion are my passions,” she says, “this is the first time that I will be doing something professional for the latter two. The focus is on health, and it has a scientific approach.”

“It is very compact, targeting people who are busy, who don’t like to go to the gym or don’t have time,” says the actress.  “It is entirely my baby, from the script to shooting it, the camera angles and lighting. But I did have fitness expert Deanne Pandey on board when the initial groundwork was done. He is my dear friend,” she adds.

Check out Bipasha with beau John Abraham at the launch of the DVD.
