1) Very exciting news for me and anyone else who gives a crap: Deepika Padukone, of recent Om Shanti Om fame, will be leading the India Day Parade in New York City this August, which was led last year by Priyanka Chopra. I've never been to one before, but they look like a lot of fun...I hope it's a bit more than a parade like vendors and stuff. It'd be nice to get something cool out of it, besides a memory card filled with pictures of Deepika. Either way, I'm uber excited... I had a short fantasy today that I get to meet her and get an autograph for Gloria, my sister. I was kiiiind of a hero.
2) So this is pretty big, and I'm SORRY that I'm just so LAME and OUT OF THE LOOP, but WTF SAIF ALI KHAN AND KAREENA KAPOOR ARE DATING? OK, so I've since put it together that this romance must've sprouted from working side-by-side during the shooting of Tashan, but seriously. Saifeena. That is a ridiculous match-up. Anywho, the article that I read this morning reported that it seems the duo have already hit a rocky patch: Whilst attending the IIFA (? the heck awards are those) Awards, Khan did not stay to see his sweetheart's on-stage performance, and Kapoor apparently didn't mention a thing about Khan during the entire show, although the couple arrived together. Khan had reportedly had Kapoor's outfit picked out for her after she had already picked something more scandalous, but as Khan wished, Kapoor arrived in a traditional sari. I hope she dies, that is such a dumb coupling. OK I DON'T REALLY HOPE SHE DIES, she was good in Jab We Met.
3) Salman Khan decides to appease his aging parents, and settle down by finding a bride. If you ask me, that won't be as easy as that meathead seems to think it will be. Like he's doing some service to the world! Come on, Khan.
4) Aiswharya Rai is rumored to be set to play Benazir Bhutto in a biopic about the controversial Pakistani politician. However I think this is totally a rumor. Still, if it does materialize, the film will be written by the same guy who did Johnny Gaddaar, so who knows.
5) Akshay is planning on returning to action movies after a 2-3 year stint doing comedies primarily. I hope he changes his mind- that boy is funnier than anything I've seen. I absolutely adore his dumb, sweet nature. Namastey London couldn't have been anything without him. I guess he's sort of already begun the return with his role in Tashan, however I heard about a month ago that he will be doing a movie with Deepika Padukone (love them separate, but together?) to be released next year? Hope it's good.
That's all. I would like to say that I purchased Paheli today, a film that I know nothing about besides the fact that it features Shahrukh Khan, Rani Mukherji AND Amitabh Bacchan...excited much? I also bought Tashan, which I already know is really, really bad (as reported by every Bollywood review site and all my friends from India), but I NEED to see it. Finally, I purchased a legit original release copy of Om Shanti Om, because it's just too good to not have the real thing.
Expect a review soon, dearie.
