Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan working together in a movie? Well yes, there is a very good chance that we will soon be able to see the greatest Hindi movie stars of our times together on the screen in Danny Boyle‘s upcoming movie. Entertainment media is being informed by reliable sources that Aamir Khan has already signed and Shahrukh Khan is seriously considering the role offered to him. As you all Know that the role played by Anil Kapoor in ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ was first offered to Shahrukh Khan but at that time Shahrukh Khan was busy with ‘Rab ne Bana Di Jodi’ and ‘My name is Khan’.

Shahrukh Khan hasn’t had any major movie release since ‘Rab ne Bana di Jodi’. His next major release would be ‘My name is Khan’ which is still on the sets and is expected to be released next year. But you know Shahrukh, he is not just an actor. In his own words he is an entertainer whose job is to entertain people and make money from it. So he is making money other ways. He appears in advertisements of countless products, has a cricket team of his own, he is also trying to mentor a team in Dance Premier League. At the age of 43 he is more energetic that teenagers, a true workaholic and an Indian icon that Newsweek ranked as one of the 50 most powerful people in the world.

We hope that Shahrukh Khan agrees to work in Danny Boyle’s movie. It will be like a dream come true for the audiences of the Hindi Cinema who has waited so long for this great moment. Not only it would be great fun to see this movie starring two greatest actors, it will be also a historical moment in the history of Hindi Cinema.

Shahid Kapoor is everywhere once again and this time Kareena is not the reason. I have always believed that he is a really talented actor. With his cute boy nextdoor charm, brilliant acting skills and his beautifully sculpted body he is going to rule the Hindi cinema. I am really impressed by his performance in ‘Kaminey’. Reviewers and critics has praised Kaminey for brilliant direction from Vishal Bhardwaj but I think that without the perfection and the charm that Shahid brought to the characters it was not possible for Bhardwaj to do this movie. In CNN-IBN’s movie review for Kaminey, Rajeev Masand writes: “Shahid Kapur rises to the challenge of creating two entirely different characters out of Charlie and Guddu, and delivers a credible performance as each.”

Kaminey is not the only wonderful thing that Shahid brought us. We are also thankful for his new look. I lack the words to describe it, its macho with boyish cute looks and its just so wonderful. You love him shirtless but you can’t stop loving him when he is fully dressed. Even though gone are the days when we had heroes that were not able to dance (Sunny Deol, Jackie Sheroff or Dharmendra), but Shahid dances so well sometimes even better than Hrithik Roshan. No offense to Hrithik fans but he is like the Greek God that we all could only dream of but Shahid is something that looks ordinarily beautiful.

This year has been very good for Shahid so far. Even his love life is shifting gears. It is rumored that Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra are seeing eachother. Officially neither Shahid nor Priyanka has confirmed it yet. But Shahid’s father Pankaj Kapoor has signed Priyanka with Shahid in his upcoming movie. So it would be a family production.Just like Shahid, I feel that Priyanka also belongs to the lot of the under-appreciated young talents of Hindi film industry. Its good that the two get together as we hope to see some great performances from both of them in the future.

You must be living in a cave if you haven’t yet heard about Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan’s spicy bed scene in the upcoming movie Kurbaan. The news are a great publicity tool and Bebo surely knows how to use this tool. She also knows how to use boyfriends as a tool too. She often combines boyfriends with juicy gossip and gets great publicity, gossip and media interest in herself. You might remember her MMS clips with her then boyfriend Shahid Kapoor. Doing bold scenes in a movie does not make any one a better actress; and Kareena is a good actress. Such a waste that in crazy publicity driven world a fine actress had to use cheap gossip stunts to remain in the news. This is not even something that Kareena hasn’t done before. She already did a similar scene in her critically acclaimed movie ‘Om Kara’. So basically she is using her trustworthy publicity stunts to remain a hot property among film producers.

Kurbaan is produced by Karan Johar. Sex is a great seller and adding bed or shower scenes in a movie where film’s lead characters are shown making out is an old bollywood trend to spice up the box office value of a movie. Kareena and Saif together in a movie already makes the movie a great sell. But most probably the producers were not confident about movie earning them better returns, even though Karan wrote the story of the movie himself. So he asked the director Rensil D’Silva to add more ingredients into it. We have found out that the movie is about terrorists. Kareena and Saif Ali Khan are playing the roles of terrorists.

Kissing, bed or shower scenes are a taboo in Hindi movies. Most major actors refuse to perform such scenes in their movies worrying about their public image. However, these bold scenes are nothing new and some of the greatest actresses has done them before. I left it for you the readers to mention in comments the actresses that has already done similar scenes. Kurbaan is expected to be released during the last week of November this year. The cast also includes Vivek Oberoi, Diya Mirza and Om Puri.
