Sameera Reddy heats up Maxim cover

Bollywood hottie Sameera Reddy is the talk of the town these days for her hot-shot shoot for the magazine Maxim. The "sultry temptress" stares at the lensman and delivers bold and striking poses, a feast to one's eyes. And her eyes are what Sameera says "my best physical attributes", her sense of humour coming a close second. Rating her films by the degree of the hotness, she puts Musafir right up there followed by Race and Taxi No 9211. She could romance a pole for all she cares - "The focus is not on who you're romancing, it's on the situation in the film," she tells the magazine. Finally, in a winner, she declares, "I don't believe in being skinny. Size zero is not hot!" And this time, we have to agree...

Ken Ghosh admits there were differences with Shahid

Ken Ghosh admits he had loud arguments with Shahid Kapoor on the sets during the shooting of Chance Pe Dance. But it had to do with Shahid's suddenly-saturated schedules. Says Ken, "For the first time in his career Shahid was doing three films at the same time-Kaminey, Dil Bole Hadippa and my film Chance Pe Dance. Naturally there was a conflict of interest." Ken admits there were loud arguments over Shahid's schedules. "I'd ask for three days. He would have only one day to spare. I'd naturally be upset. Then understandably, Shahid wanted time off. He couldn't be seen on my set straight after shooting for one of the other two films. This naturally led to heated arguments. For me as a director it was okay to come on the sets without sleep. But Shahid had to catch up on his resting time. Or the dark circles would have shown on camera. And since Shahid is fair-complexioned those dark circles would be even more visible." The last thing that Ken wanted was for his hero to fall ill. "Priyanka Chopra had to be hospitalized because of overwork and exhaustion. I didn't want Shahid to go through the same experience." The effort has been worth it for both Shahid and Ken. "Shahid's dancing in Chance Pe Dance is the film's mainstay. But his performance is not just about dancing. Some of the things he has done with in the dramatic scenes took me by surprise. Shahid has brought subtle expressions into scenes which I didn't catch while shooting. Only during editing I realized what he had done." Ken Ghosh who introduced Shahid Kapoor in Ishq Vishq five years ago admits the actor has changed. "Isn't change inevitable? We all evolve with time. Shahid is no exception." So are the stories of a rift between the two true? Ken doesn't deny the fact that there were heated arguments and fights during the making of Chance Pe Dance. "But they were all for the betterment of the film. See when Shahid did his first film Ishq Vishq with me he only had that film on hand and was able to give me his full attention."

Dino becomes an entrepreneur

The entrepreneur side to Dino Morea's personality seems more assertive at the moment than the actor. After opening a bar at Bandra, Dino is all set to open three more branches in Mumbai. "One branch would be in South Mumbai, the other in Lokhandwala/ Versova and the third in or near Malad. I want the bar culture in Mumbai to be quieter and more spacious so that people can just come in for a quiet drink and relax. Bars have become strangely synonymous with noisy smoky places. I want to change that," informs Dino. Dino is also ready to market male designer clothes which would have clothes devoted to the two cricketers Yuvraj and Dhoni. As for movies Dino would rather wait than do the cameos that have been offered to him lately with the promise of better roles. Dino, who turned 34 on December 9, has again been seen extensively in the company of his long-standing friend Nandita Mahtani. Says Dino, "We've had our share of ups and downs. But we've always been close, no matter what has happened in our lives. As for the other women, they've their own conscience to deal with." Dino doesn't rule out permanence in his relationship with Nandita. "This time whoever it is, it will be for keeps," Dino promises himself. "I do look for someone to share my life with now." Dino's parents flew into Mumbai from Bangalore for his birthday. "It was us three brothers and my parents. Now I need that one special person. That's all one needs to make a complete life, no?"
