Kareena starts admiring Aishwarya

Kareena Kapoor has had a bad equation with her first hero Abhishek and the Bachchans ever since loving sis Karisma's broken engagement.Kareena has been openly critical about Ash too, who took Karisma's place in the Bachchan home.But now the Kapoor girl has suddenly decided to rave about the Bachchan bahu.Bebo apparently can't stop talking about the way Ash has shaped her career after marriage.

Ash has big films in her kitty like Sanjay Leela Bhasali's next with Hrithik Roshan and a movie with Akshay Kumar based on Back to the Future, apart from Maniratnam's Ravan with hubby Abhi and Shankar's Robot. This in spite of the fact that she has become very selective about films after marrying Abhishek Bachchan.

She turned down Karan Johar's Dostana because she thought the audiences could not see her having affection for Bobby Deol and being overtly friendly with John Abraham when Abhi is a part of the story. She's also become very choosy about the directors and producers she wants to work with.

Kareena has reportedly been following Ash's career and says this is the pattern she would love to follow after her marriage. So it seems that she's indeed serious about marrying Saif Ali Khan. Kareena's been saying that she's serious about marriage but it won't happen for another two years as her date diary is full till 2010. Saif is getting a special apartment ready and it would be complete by then. The Kapoor lass sure is very clear about her plans! Let's wait and watch.

Salman Khan takes late night dinner with Katrina Kaif

The buzz is that a few days ago, Salman Khan went out for night dinner with his girlfriend Katrina Kaif. They had dinner at the posh Olive Restaurant and came out after 1 A.M.

A witness stated, “Salman Khan walked in with Katrina around midnight.They settled for a table in the private dining room. Salman ordered vodka and took five to six pegs.

Katrina Kaif did not drink, she only took dinner. They were looking happy in each other’s company.’Instead of getting into the car with Katrina Kaif, he chose to ride a rickshaw.

Auto rickshaw driver sat with Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan did the driving. Salman Khan has done so a couple of times earlier in the past and his friend Govinda has often been a part of Salman Khan’s midnight adventure trips.A source revealed, “Salman Khan was unaware of Katrina Kaif’s discomfort. He was looking very happy with Auto rickshaw.

It's hard to believe I can have any more toe cleavage photos of Victoria Beckham, after the run of the past week. This post mark her 23rd appearance here overall. Quite an impressive feat.

Stars who desperately need a good 2009

2008 is gone forever and 2009 has crept in with many promising films in store. Hope 2009 fights the global recession raining gold at the box-office. But stars who really need to prove themselves this year before it's too late are:-

Preity Zinta- Preity had done two films last year Heroes and The Last Lear where in spite of being noticed she dint seem to make any buzz in Bollywood.

Her viewers want to see her original self in roles that she has done in the past in films like Kal Ho Na Ho and Salaam Namaste but unfortunately this year she has only been seen more on the cricket fields than on the silver screen.

All her wellwishers wish her Mohali team wins the IPL and her forthcoming film Har Pal does wonders in the BO and she manages to get offers from Dharma and Yash Raj productions.

Shahid Kapoor- Has lots in store this year to prove himself as last year where his only hit was Jab We Met which was completely dominated by Kareena and she stole all the limelight. His film with Vidya Balan, Kismat Konnection too dint make in waves in the BO maybe because the viewers did not approve their pair.

His love life was also in a mess in spite of being in news for seeing Sania Mirza and Vidya Balan. Nothing seemed to work for him. This year he has YRF's Cricket with Rani Mukerji, Ken Ghosh's musical extravaganza Yahoo with Jiah Khan and Vishal Bhardwaj's Kaminay with Priyanka Chopra. So that means lots to prove himself.

In the personal front too he is said to be dating some Mubina Rattonsey, so we all hope that even in that front things work out well for him.

This year he will be seen in the film Blue where his scuba diving skills and his physique will make the people forget his no acting ability. The other films which he has to hold on to are dad Sanjay Khan's The Legend of Lord Rama and Apoorva Lakhia's.

Fardeen Khan- Has not had a single release last year and he just seems to have disappeared somewhere. The actor was last seen in Ram Gopal's disaster, Darling. He will be seen in the film Dulha mil Gaya in 2009. He also has Sanjay Gupta's much hyped film Acid Factory in his sleeve.

As this film sounds pretty promising hope Fardeen is able to come back with a bang. Apart from this he will also be seen in Abbas Mustan's multi-starrer comic caper Life Partner.

Vivek Oberoi- Over confidence and arrogance are the two words which have become the reason for the failure of this actor even though he can act well. His character of Maya Dola's in Shoot out in Lokhandwala was highly appreciated and he was remembered for it but his film, Mission Istanbul was a dud in the BO.

His upcoming films like a Tips action film called Prince of Thieves, Dharma Productions' film on terrorism alongside Saif and Kareena where he plays a terrorist and a role in Prakash Jha's multi-starrer political thriller Rajneeti sound promising and the characters he s playing seem to have lots of potential so we hope these help him in proving his worth.

Zayed Khan- The only good thing that happened to this star last year was that he became a father. His much hyped films Mission Istanbul and Yuvvraaj were a major disaster and were a complete hint that this star if not anything else definitely needs to attend some acting classes.

Salman Khan- Last but not the least we all hope that 2009 brings in lots of luck for Sallu bhai. His 2008 was really bad where his much hyped film Yuvvraaj was unable to create magic in the box office. This year he has Veer where Salman can once again prove himself and come back in the race.

Voluptuous Riya Sen puts on weight at the right places

Riya Sen who has returned from her native place Bengal for the holidays is looking even more stunning and sexy these days. Riya Sen has grown pleasantly plump and voluptuous. Too much rice and fish? Anyway Riya Sen who is a total foodie claims "I have gained weight but at the right places". We are not complaining. We love our Riya voluptuous and womanly, not like those fake size zeroes.
