Our space had only recently informed you that Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra have been tweeting a lot these days on ‘Twitter’, but the truth that has been revealed is just too shocking. It has come out that it is someone impersonating Shahid on this social networking site.
The person has been using the mail ID: shahid.kapoor@gmail.com and has made everyone believe that he is real Shahid. When Shahid was tagged as the sexiest vegetarian in Asia, the person posted a humble “Thank You” message on ‘Twitter’ and these days he was seen expressing concern and apprehensive excitement over the release of his forthcoming ‘Kaminey’ and was even found discussing the movie’s release date.
Now, Shahid is obviously quite worried about the whole thing and his publicist wrote to the impersonator on Twitter asking him to give up the account, but the person denied saying that he was not in any way harming the actor’s reputation and is only writing only good things about Shahid.
Now, the actor’s manager plans to approach the cyber crime cell if the account is not surrendered in a few days.
How far could a producer go in taking care of the wishes of the leading lady of his film? Well, he could at least gift a new mobile phone. This is exactly what producer Ajay Devgan has done for Bipasha Basu who has just finished shooting for Ajay Devgan’s comedy ‘All The Best’ in Goa this week.
Bipasha had worked really hard with most sincere efforts for Ajay’s film. She not only worked late at night and early in the mornings, she also kept the phone switched off during the shooting thus cutting off from everyone including beau John Abraham who has hurt his legs. Bipasha also agreed to do an additional role in ‘All The Best’ without extra charges. When Ajay came to know that Bips wanted a Blackberry phone, he thought it would be just the right move to show his appreciation for her dedication.
Says the actress, “Yeah, Ajay knew I wanted it. In fact it was he who got me interested in. It is actually a gift in appreciation for working long hours and changing at lightning speed between shots when we had loads of work to finish. Ajay is a fabulous producer and co-star.”
Bipasha is all ga-ga for her new phone and says, “I love it! I’m going totally crazy with it. Though I’ve no numbers on it and am trying to figure it out, I just can’t get enough of it.”
Kamal Hassan’s daughter Shruti Hassan is making a grand debut with Soham Shah’s ‘Luck’ where she has been paired against Imran Khan. The film also stars Sanjay Dutt, Mithun Chakraborty, Ravi Kissen and Danny Denzongpa in the main villain’s role.
Imran had shown some action packed sequences in ‘Kidnap’ post his romantic role in ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’, but ‘Luck’ would be an out and out action movie for Imran where he will be seen displaying martial arts.
Imran has just finished his long shooting schedule for the film in Cape Town and the producer had already arranged for his martial arts training sessions long before the shooting schedule. However, Imran had been busy with the promotion of his films and could not go through a proper training. Nevertheless, there was already a special trainer for him on his arrival at Cape Town and Imran left no stones unturned in going through rigorous training in order to get perfection in his action steps. He also worked out a lot on his physique for his role in this particular film. Your browser may not support display of this image.

The demise of his father, Feroz Khan has been hard for Fardeen Khan who got into some fist fight with sister Laila’s boyfriend at a late night get-together of family members at a bar of a five star hotel in Andheri East. The party included Fardeen, his wife Natasha, sister Laila, her boyfriend Farhan Furniturewala, Farah Ali Khan and DJ Aqeel.
Media reports say that Fardeen and Farhan got into a heated argument which later turned into exchange of blows but Fardeen denies such story saying that he and Farhan were discussing about their favorite WWF wrestlers and decided to show each other some of their wrestling moves.
