The film titled Ajab Hai Ishq is gearing up to go on the floors soon. Javed Khan, who is producing the film and also playing the lead role of Salman Khan in the film, says, “If a love story is depicted authentically and emotionally, the film will surely attract the audience.

Ajab Hai Ishq is a love triangle. The story resembles the real life story of Ash and Sallu.”In real life, the two actors may have gone their separate ways, but Javed will show a different version. “I want to send home the message that if you love someone, you should get married to her or him. Leaving your loved one in the lurch will not bring peace in your life.”

Interestingly, singer Salamat, who recorded the title track of the film recently, had earlier sung the emotional number Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam from the Salman-Ash film by the same name.

Salman-Asin resorting to cheap publicity?

Somebody might have opened the Pandora’s box as the release date of London Dreams drew near. All sorts of gossips varying from Salman Khan’s close relationship with his co-star Asin Thottumkal to their big fight filled the newspaper entertainment columns and websites.Do you think the lead pair is resorting to cheap publicity? Who knows, because they neither complained nor cared to clarify the gossips.

Yes, they say ‘no publicity is bad publicity.’ Asin, being relatively a novice in Bollywood though a big name down South, seemed to be disturbed by all the gossips. But Salman handles it differently. He keeps mum on all the issues – be it his relationship with Asin or the alleged ‘fight’. He knows it would create more hype around the film and thus pave the way for a good opening.

Well, the much-hyped film London Dreams, starring Ajay Devgn besides Salman and Asin, releases today. Let’s wait and watch whether it’s worth the hype!

Boney wanted to re-create the magic with the same star cast, but director Prabhu Deva suggested that they change the female lead and rope in the south siren Nayanthara instead of Ayesha Takia.

Interestingly, Prabhu Deva’s affair with the actress is painting the gossip columns red down south. In fact, just a few weeks back, Prabhu’s wife had come out all guns blazing at Nayan in an interview to a local daily there warning Nayanthara to keep away from her husband.

So, this suggestion from the director suggests a tint of truth in the rumors. Whatever may be the case, we would definitely like to see our Sallu Bhai romancing the sexy siren from the south.

Salman referred to as Shahrukh!

This perhaps can be the worst possible case of mistaken identity for Bollywood actor Salman Khan when someone referred to him as Shahrukh. Salman who is busy promoting his movie Wanted could only manage a laugh when he was referred to by his arch rival’s name. The incident happened when Salman visited the Tata Memorial Hospital Mumbai to spend time with children suffering from cancer.

A junior doctor who was addressing the event mistook Salman for Shahrukh and said “May I please request Dr SD to give Shahrukh a bouquet.” The entire gathering lay stunned at this with the senior management at the hospital feeling embarrassed.

Salman doesn’t like Katrina wear small skirt

You may wonder what has gone wrong with Salman Khan when he said that he doesn’t watch his girlfriend Katrina Kaif’s films. In fact, his feedback would be invaluable but he has his own reason for shying away from her films. The reason is – he doesn’t like to see her wearing sexy and small skirt. Salman admitted that he doesn’t watch Katrina’s film. But why? He said that he once watched her film and she was wearing a small skirt, which he didn’t quite like.

Meanwhile, he is aware that he has to let it go sometimes. He is left with no option but to keep away from such films. He added that he could make out the genre of her film from the promos and stay away if necessary.The reports that Salman was guiding Katrina was right as he admitted that he did help her initially. However, he said that he doesn’t interfere in her work anymore, as she’s grown up and has good scene of choice.

Salman said that Katrina used to ask him to check out a couple of her scenes due her problem with dubbing but he has stopped it now, as he doesn’t want to be labelled as an aggressive boyfriend who barges into his girlfriend’s sets.

Salman to take on SRK in the field

After taking on Shahrukh Khan on the screen and off it Bollywood hunk Salman Khan is also set to take his arch rival on the cricket field. Salman has shown interest in owning a team in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The actor apparently met Lalit Modi the chairman and commissioner of the IPL to discuss the possibility of buying one of the two new teams which will be added to the tournament from the 2011 season.

Salman has been toying with the idea of owing a team ever since he saw fellow celebrities Preity Zinta, Juhi Chawla and Shilpa Shetty apart from SRK being associated with India’s cricketing extravaganza. Although the names of the cities haven’t been finalised by the IPL body, cities like Ahmedabad, Nagpur and Vishakhaptanam are being discussed. Apart from Salman Khan, Ajay Devgan and Sanjay Dutt are also reportedly interested in owning IPL teams.

But is not going to be easy for Salman to own a team as some of India’s leading corporates will take part in the auction will take place in January 2010. Markets analysts believe each of the two teams could sell for as much as Rs. 1000 Crores. It remains to be seen if Salman alone goes for a team or ties up with other Bollywood celebrities to own a team. The Bollywood war though will be fought on a different battle ground.

Salman-Shahid patch up!

They say it’s never too late and our two actors might have just realised that. After a bitter fallout during the Rockstars concert in 2006, Salman Khan and Shahid Kapoor had been avoiding each other like the plague. It so happened that Salman was not getting his steps right and Shahid offered to help him out. Apparently Salman didn’t like this young actor’s interference and asked him to leave him alone.

Salman even opted out of Satish Kaushik’s long awaited film, Shahid-starrer Milenge Milenge, wherein he was supposed to do a cameo. But guess what we hear now? Shahid has agreed to be part of Salman Khan’s popular show 10 Ka Dum where he will be promoting his forthcoming film Dil Bole Hadippa with co-star Rani Mukerji.

Seems like Shahid is indeed basking in the glory of his successful career and has forgotten the episode whole heartedly. Salman too has been gracious enough to invite them on his show.

Is London Dreams a copy?

Milos Forman directed Amadeus revolves Austrian musicians Salieri and Mozart. Salieri is immensely jealous of Mozart’s talent. He thinks his own music is pure and Mozart’s compositions are outlandish. He tries to thwart Mozart’s musical attempts and even gets his hands on Mozart’s original work through his wife and passes it off as his own. In the end, his envy gets the better of him and he murders Mozart. London Dreams, shot extensively in London, Paris and Punjab is the story of two childhood friends, played by Ajay and Salman who want to be rock stars. So they grow up and fulfill their dreams and both of them fall in love with Asin, the dancer of their band which is called London Dreams.

It is about the rivalry between them and also about who finally gets the girl. If London Dreams is a contemporary adaptation of Amadeus then, Ajay Devgan will play Salieri whose music is pure, Salman will play the outlandish Mozart and Asin will play Salman’s love interest. Shaka Laka Boom Boom starring Bobby Deol, Upen Patel, Celina Jaitley and Kangna Ranaut, was an awfully made take on Amadeus. When contacted, Vipul Shah said, “London Dreams is not similar to any film. It is an original piece of work. Why does everybody have to doubt an Indian filmmaker?

Just because it is about two guys who are in the world of music, so it becomes like some other film?” Let’s just wait for his dreams to unfold. London Dreams releases on October 30, 2009.

Salman again takes a dig at Shahrukh

Bollywood biggest Cold War needs just small sparks for new flares. Both Shahrukh and Salman miss no chance of taking a dig at each other.

Salman said that it was a normal security procedure and he had faced it several times in his life. He added that the security measure was actually a very Good thing.

Salman also said that if the detention was considered necessary by US Customs and Border Protection anybody flying to the United States must cooperate with their authorities. Trying to prove his point Salman stressed on the fact that there had been no major attacks since 9/11 because of the stringent security measures adopted in US.

Comeon Salman there are better occasions to take a dig as the question here is not Shahrukh along but all Indians flying to US.
