The accused person not only sneaked into her account but also, changed her password. Asin learned this when recently she couldn’t access her account due to an invalid password. On consulting a technician, it was discovered that someone conveniently has hacked her account and is maybe using it for illicit purposes.
Traumatized Asin says, "It was my official mail ID. The fan mails that used to come to my website also used to be directed there. I put up a warning on my website asking people not to mail on that ID." She adds, "I have stopped mailing people, and I have decided to post my messages on the website itself."The Ghajini babe now refrains herself from using internet for e-mail purposes.

Michael Jackson laid to rest
Tuesday, August 11, 2009

King of Pop Michael Jackson has finally been laid to rest without any grand ceremony. The Thriller hitmaker, who died at the age of 50 on June 25, was buried at the Forest Lawn Cemetery in Hollywood Hills without a fan in sight, Mirror online reported. Jackson's family has gone to extraordinary lengths to keep the exact location secret as they are reportedly worried that his followers will throng the resting place of their idol.
They are even considering moving Jackson's body if security becomes an issue, the newspaper said."Michael has already been laid to rest, but other than the Jackson family and the management at Forest Lawn, no one knows the exact spot," a cemetery source said. "Staff at the cemetery have been fed several different locations, it's as if they are hoping to confuse everyone so it can't leak out. The fear is that thousands of Jackson fans will descend on the cemetery and create a security issue or maybe even damage or deface the grave," the source added. The pop icon was laid to rest without a service because his family were satisfied with the ceremony that took place before his Los Angeles memorial concert. Earlier last week, Jackson's brain, which was taken out for some clinical tests, was reunited with his body.

Rakhi Sawant finally selects life partner
Monday, August 3, 2009

India's first televised 'swayamvar' concluded here late Sunday with item girl Rakhi Sawant choosing Toronto-based Elesh Parujanwala as her life partner in a unique reality TV show. In NDTV Imagine's 'Rakhi ka Swayamvar', Rakhi made the final choice from the three finalists -- from the original list of 16 contestants in 26 episodes. The other two finalists were young aspirant Manas Katyal and businessman Chhitiz Jain, both from New Delhi.
'I have been watching Elesh from day one. On and off the camera, he has been the same and has really taken care of me. He is everything I was looking for and I am glad to have found him on the Swayamvar. The swayamvar means finding a jeevan saathi and I have found Elesh. 'Today is our engagement. I am ready to get married now, but we need to understand each other better off camera. We will soon get married in front of all of you in keeping with all our traditions,' Rakhi said after announcing her choice to a waiting audience across the country.
Decked up in red and gold lehenga-choli by Neeta Lulla and kundan jewellery, Rakhi looked a perfect bride. Elesh, Manas and Chhitiz too were dressed for the occasion -- in traditional sherwanis and turbans. In the dramatic finale, she garlanded Elesh -- as the audience clapped on.
The colourful event, held at the Hotel Leela Kampinsky here Sunday, saw a host of celebrities like choreographer Saroj Khan, actors Ravi Kishen and Ram Kapoor, who posed as brothers to the bride, apart from others like Smita Bansal and Sudha Shivpuri in the audience.

Love Aaj Kal
Saturday, August 1, 2009

Love Aaj Kal; Star Cast:- Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, debutantes Giselle Monteiro and Florence Brudenell Bruce, Rishi Kapoor and Rahul Khanna ; Director: Imtiaz Ali
Studying in London, Jai (Saif) and Meera (Deepika) are in a relationship for two years but when career beckons, they mutually break off their relationship. Meera prepares to go to India to pursue her career in old historical places restorations whereas Jai waits in London with a hope of getting his dream job in San Fransico’s Golden Gate Co. The couple though broken off decides to keep in touch via net and phone calls and continue to remain friends. Restaurant owner Veer Singh (Rishi Kapoor) is a silent observer to their break up process since it happens in his restaurant. Unable to bear the far too casual approach related to affairs of heart of the couple, he tries to convince a reluctant Jai that he is making a mistake. Sensing that Jai is not taking him seriously, Veer then starts narrating him his own love story with Harleen Kaur (Giselle Monteiro) which took place far back in 1965 in Delhi. From then on begins the unfolding of these two love stories running parallel together which incidentally end up with a similar culmination after many twists and turns which also are similar despite the different period zones.
After making the much loved Jab We Met, Imtiaz Ali succeeds in giving us an extremely different love story that we have never witnessed before on Indian screen. He scores high on his writing and his treatment of the film. In the initial 10 minutes he successfully establishes Saif and Deepika’s relationship and their character quirks. He surprises you then by putting a melancholic song (Ye Dooriyan) as opening credits role showing montages of various important twists of the plot that lie ahead. In fact his screenplay is indeed full of surprises ahead, especially in the second half. As you begin to anticipate a particular thing happening ahead in the plot, almost 9 times out of 10 he proves you wrong. Making the film extremely relatable to everyone who has ever been in love and broken off with his/her partner, Imtiaz takes it notches higher by his dialogues that sound simple but convey a lot. Plenty of scenes stay with you as you come out. Imtiaz has repeated his technical team trio of JWM – Aarti Bajaj (Editing), Teddy Maurya (Art Direction) and Cinematographer (N. Nataraj Subramaniam) and each of them have excelled in their respective departments. Music of the film by Pritam is already ruling the charts and thankfully none of the songs act as speed breakers. The picturisation of Main Kya Hoon in San Francisco showing various changes in Saif is simply fantastic.
Without any doubt, these are career best performances of both Saif and Deepika and it should not be a surprise if they both end up winning most of awards for this year. Saif has always been at ease playing the cool no strings attached dude but in here he also succeeds in playing the brooding romantic Sardar Veer Singh very well and is extremely impressive in the post interval emotional sequences. Deepika wins hearts not just by looking extremely attractive throughout but also with the effortless ease she portrays her complex character. Rishi Kapoor is extremely loveable as the mature Veer Singh and lends tremendous dignity to his character. Debutante Giselle Monteiro manages to speak volumes just through her expressions. Rahul Khanna in a special appearance is good and suits the character perfectly well. Raj Zutshi playing Harleen’s father reminds of Pawan Malhotra’s character of Kareena’s uncle in Jab We Met. Florence Brudenell Bruce playing Saif’s Swiss girlfriend doesn’t have much to do but manages to do a good job. Love Aaj Kal is a film definitely not to be missed. It offers us something fresh and and is a unique experiment in story telling and direction that works big time. It is one film that Saif, Deepika and Imtiaz shall always be proud of whenever they look back at their career.

Jackson fans seek Nobel peace prize for star
Tuesday, July 28, 2009

Fans of the late pop star Michael Jackson have launched an Internet campaign to have their idol nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Two online petitions have already collected more than 12,000 signatures in support of nominating the singer, who died of cardiac arrest on June 25, for one of the world's most prestigious awards. "Michael's message for humankind has always been rooted in compassion, and kindness. He has succeeded a lifelong dedication to the well being of humanity," one of the petitions said.
The fans explain that Jackson should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for devoting his life to "helping others in their darkest time of need". "It would be nearly impossible to count the multiple hundreds of millions of dollars Michael has donated to charity from his own finances and also through organising major fund raising events," reads the petition, which has been signed by more than 2,000 people. The other group of more than 10,000 fans has signed letters to Nobel Peace Prize laureates and the United Nations to nominate the king of pop for the award.
"Unfortunately we didn't succeed in getting Michael nominated," authors of the petition said. The Nobel Peace Prize is one of the five Nobel Prizes established in the 1895 will of Alfred Nobel. The first Nobel Peace Prize was awarded in 1901. Every September, the Norwegian Nobel Committee, comprising five people elected by the Norwegian parliament, sends letters to members of parliament, political leaders, international organizations and other "qualified people", asking them to put forward their own candidates for the prize.

Sexy Priyanka Chopra's 27th Birthday
Saturday, July 18, 2009

Sexy Priyanka Chopra celebrates her 27th birthday today. This actress is believed to have taken off for a short vacation to celebrate her birthday. This will definitely be a birthday where Priyanka will have lots to celebrate. She is at an alltime high in her career and certainly deserves to savour her success and popularity.
In the past year, Priyanka has not only achieved success at the box office but has also managed to carve a niche for herself as an actress of repute. If there was Aitraaz at the beginning of her career, she had Fashion last year which again had critics and cinegoers saluting her histrionic abilities. Her performance in Madhur Bhandarkar's Fashion, followed by the box office success of Dostana has put her in an enviable position. Up ahead, the actress has some more interesting films on hand. She will be eagerly awaiting the release of Vishal Bharadwaj's Kaminey, which sees her coming together with Shahid Kapur on screen. Whatever one has seen of the promos, has been very promising indeed. Then there is also Ashutosh Gowariker's What's Your Rashee coming up for release in September, followed by Jugal Hansraj's Pyaar Impossible for the Yash Raj banner. The actress seems to have left most of her rivals far behind. If Lady Luck continues to shine on her, there are no pinnacles that this girl cannot reach.

Sexy Priyanka Chopra doing something special
Friday, July 17, 2009

Sexy Priyanka Chopra is making more than a few eyes pop out of their heads with her stunning photoshoot for the new Harper's Bazaar magazine. Looking stunning in a body-hugging floor-length pink gown with a 1960s Jackie Kennedy bouffant hairstyle, Priyanka embodies this issue's message of the Power of a Woman.
Bollywood's currently most powerful woman has recently been talking about its most powerful man – Shah Rukh Khan: "I have been a huge fan of Shah Rukh Khan since I was six," she says, (ouch!) "During Miss India 2000, he was one of the judges who asked me a question. I got a chance to meet him backstage and managed to say, `Hello`. When he heard that I sing, he asked me to do so. I still don`t remember what I sang. I will always admire Shah Rukh."
Priyanka has also become hooked recently on the power of Twitter, the social messaging site. "It started as a lark, a quest of discovery, and now I find my fingers twitching for my Nokia or my laptop wherever something interesting happens," she explains, "I have great fun interacting with my tweeps. At least they believe it's the real me, unlike some of you guys, who still aren't sure that it's me reading your mails."

Saif loves to see Kareena dressed up hot
Tuesday, July 7, 2009

Little Nawab, Saif Ali Khan is pretty bowled over by the sensuous look of Kareena Kapoor in Kambakkht Ishq . Now, here’s a couple who’s not hush-hush about their love affair, not even about their personal fetishes. Just recently Kareena held a special screening of her film ‘Kambakkht Ishq’ for family and friends. Almost everyone loved the film and Saif was particularly struck by Bebo’s glamourous look – designed by Aki Narula – in the film, even though he did not like her in the song ‘Bebo Main Bebo’ in which she tries to seduce Akshay Kumar . Well, that’s understandable.
However, Saif loved the song she has with Akshay in Venice. But apart from films, Kareena confesses that Saif loves to see her dressed sexily. “He likes to see me look glamorous and sexy and not just in films. He wants me to dress up all the time when we are going out for dinner or to parties,” Kareena is quoted as saying by a tabloid. Besides Saif, Kareena’s mother Babita and sister Karisma Kapoor too have loved the film.

Shiney Ahuja's judicial custody extended till July 16
Friday, July 3, 2009

Shiney Ahuja, who had been behind bars in the Arthur Road Jail, was produced before the court on Thursday afternoon. His judicial custody, which ended today, was extended by another two weeks. The prosecution is believed to be building a strong case against the actor. The DNA test report by Forensic Science Laboratory in Kalina had earlier this week confirmed that Shiney had sex with his maid. But whether it was forced sex (rape) or consensual is yet to be proved. If found guilty of rape and other charges (wrongful confinement and intimidation), Shiney could face a jail sentence of seven years. Shiney is accused of raping his domestic help on the evening of June 14 at his Oshiwara residence. He was arrested on June 15 and remained in police custody before being remanded to a 14-day judicial custody on June 18 by a Mumbai court. The film industry has expressed shock and disbelief over the case. Shiney’s wife Anupam has claimed that her husband is “innocent"

Michael Jackson died
Friday, June 26, 2009

Pop singer Michael Jackson died in Los Angeles. Michael Jackson, the sensationally gifted "King of Pop" who emerged from childhood superstardom to become the entertainment world's most influential singer and dancer before his life and career deteriorated in a freakish series of scandals, died on Thursday, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press. He was 50.
The person said Jackson died in a Los Angeles hospital. The person was not authorised to speak publicly and requested anonymity. The circumstances of his death were not immediately clear. Jackson was not breathing when Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a call at his Los Angeles home about 12:30 pm, Capt Steve Ruda told the Los Angeles Times. The paramedics performed CPR and took him to UCLA Medical Center, Ruda told the newspaper.
Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage. His 1982 album Thriller — which included the blockbuster hits Beat It, Billie Jean and Thriller — remains the biggest-selling album of all time, with more than 26 million copies.
