One down, eleven to go! Aadesh and Tina said bye-bye to JDJ on Saturday night. It was the first elimination round of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa and somehow I knew Aadesh will go, but I feel sorry for Tina, she really had hell with arrogant and stubborn Aadesh. According to the rehearsal clips shown during the show it was obvious that Aadesh was not co-operating at all with Tina. She was the only one choreographer seen crying and upset, thanks to Aadesh. Well! He himself did agree that he has never listened to anyone in his life and that he was very arrogant with Tina. Poor Tina was crying like a baby on the stage, When Rohit declared they were out. She will hate Aadesh ...

Castrol Awards for Cricketing Excellence - What is it all about? It is good to see that we don't have hell lot of Awards in Indian Cricket like Bollywood, considering the popularity of Cricket in India. But I think it is just a matter of time, very soon you will see lot of awards cropping up in Cricket as well. Not sure if the cricketers will have enough time to receive the awards or not Coming back to Castrol Awards - The Castrol Awards have been synonymous with Indian cricket since their inception in 1997-98. Apart from Special Awards, they mainly present three awards  which are : Castrol Indian Cricketer of the Year Castrol Junior Cricketer of the Year Castrol Lifetime Achievement ...

I am not sure but the rumours are that our Salman Khan is been selected for 2008 Bollywood celebrity wax statue at London’s Madame Tussauds. I still have my doubts because there are no updates on Madame Tussauds website. Anyway I am very happy for Salman Khan. All the people who voted for him must be very happy to see their super star next to Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai and Shah Rukh Khan. Reports suggest that the wax statue will be ready for display by January 2008 and Salman will personally go to London to unveil the statue. Bobby Khan, who is in-charge of the Bollywood gallery at the museum, has already spoken to Salman Khan. A formal letter is on ...

Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 2 is Wow-Wow!!! To start with, I would say JDJ have a beautiful and huge stage, sone pe suhaga is their three beautiful, talented and talking sense Judges. By “talking sense” I am try to point out the judges we have on Nach Baliye 3 this year, I mean there’s no mazaa in their comments for the contestants. Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 2 have a beautiful combination of six girls and six boys stars and choreographer as their contestants. Only hitch is that “chole-bhatura” (Mona Singh) on the stage hosting the show. I personally never liked her, I was shocked to see her win the JDJ first season, Shweta Salve was the best – in looks, in dance and also she has ...

Grandmaster Viswanathan Anand crowned as the new World chess champion with a short 20-move draw against Peter Leko of Hungary in the 14th and final round of the Championships in Mexico City on last night. Vishwanathan Anand was born in Madras, India the 11th of December of 1969; he obtained the GM title at the age of 16 years. In 1987 he was the World Juvenile Champion in Philippines. Anand has been in world's top-three for the last 15 years but it is the first time that he is officially rated No 1 in the FIDE rankings. Viswanathan Anand is now eager to see whether his countrymen give him the same grand reception that they had extended to Twenty20 World Cup ...

2nd week of Nach Baliye and its still “Thanda” in Malaika’s style. Really, I am missing Malaika and Saroj Khan very much. I think instead of Isha Koppikar, the Nach Baliye team should have picked Sridevi. This year it’s No fun at all!!! For price money of 20 lacs and chevrolet car, the couples have to put extra efforts. It was a Fusion theme for the performers. And also today it was a repetition of last two Nach Baliye, first when Kiran Janjani forgot her steps like Varun Badola in first season of Nach Baliye and second when Jodi No. 5(Vikas Sethi and Amita Sethi) did their dance act exactly like last years Manav and Shweta Gohil. Same stone image concept and ...

OK, let’s help our four Indians, now living in China, Meena Barot (35), Prithviraj P (40), Vipul Joshi (27) and Senthil Nachiappan (37), to become Olympic torchbearers for the Beijing Olympics at the opening ceremony of the games, from August 8 to 24, 2008. Atleast one of them should hold the Torch on behalf of each and every India. The contest Expats for Olympic Torchbearers is organised by Lenovo, a personal computer manufacturer. The advertisement says: Lenovo Group along with China Daily will launch the Lenovo-sponsored Olympic torchbearer nominee selection among foreigners living in China, in an effort to seek people who embody the Olympic spirit of constant exploration and striving for ...

Yes it’s a joke, how we Indians portray ourselves in modern world with a very open minded attitude. Where we appreciate a women talking about Aids (Shilpa Shetty) in a huge gathering of truck drivers, and on other hand we try to pull her down and insult her by calling her an uncultured Indian, whereas its not her fault if she was kissed (on cheeks) by Richard Gere. Is she not already embarrassed enough by that kiss? We really are a bunch of hypocrites. Shilpa Shetty shed tears after being stopped at Mumbai Airport by immigration officials who had no record of a Supreme Court ruling which overturned a ban on her leaving the country. They said she was still wanted ...

Moment of Glory for men in blue hijacked by BCCI officials and Politicians. BCCI Officials and Politicians made it like a Political Rally, what was meant to be the felicitation ceremony for the Twenty20 World Cup champions. It was expected that Dhoni and his boys would take centrestage, but BCCI officials and Politicians placed themselves on the front row, completely overshadowing the proud winners of the trophy. If that was enough, RR Patil and Sharad Pawar started glorifying Maharastra in their speech, as if it was Maharastra team who won the world cup. RR Patil went a step ahead and said, "Sharad Pawar should be credited with the victory". Someone should ask him, "Did he select the team or he bowled out Pakistanis in the Final?" ...
