This week, Bollywood celebrated the festival of Diwali with pomp and perseverance. Many celebrities namely Aamir Khan, Sonam Kapoor and more hosted big Diwali bashes which were attended by the who's who of B-Town. Moreover, Hema Malini launched her biography Beyond the Dream Girl in the city. Deepika Padukone was the special guest at the event and the actress was at her candid best. 

Here are Top Bollywood Newsmakers of the week:

1. Not Ranveer Singh, Ranbir Kapoor did the most romantic thing for Deepika Padukone?

In an interview with a leading trade analyst on a talk show recently, when Deepika Padukone was asked about the most romantic thing someone has ever done for her, the actress revealed, "The most romantic... Oh God! I'm sure there's a lot. But if I had to think of one thing that comes to my mind, it would be that I wanted to learn to play an instrument and the instrument arrived at my house a few days later."

Apparently, it was Deepika's ex-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor, who gifted her a piano.

2. Deepika Padukone: Romantic relationships are complicated

At the launch of Hema Malini's biography, Deepika spoke about her relationships by saying, ''Romantic relationships are complicated," adding that it was difficult to find a partner who will understand you.

3. Mahira Khan on LEAKED pictures with Ranbir Kapoor: It's very normal for a girl and a guy to hang out

Ranbir Kapoor and Mahira Khan's pictures from New York had gone viral and post that the latter was trolled mercilessly on the social media. A few days back, at an event, when Mahira was asked about the same, she stated, "What should I comment about it? It's a personal thing and we have learnt from it. I am a very careful person otherwise. I think it's very normal for a girl and a guy to hang out. Like I said, we all have learnt from it and we have understood that the media is now everywhere."

4. Pictures: Kajol and Ajay Devgn celebrate Diwali with kids in style

Kajol and Ajay Devgn were today clicked celebrating Diwali with family. Kajol shared a picture with Ajay on Twitter and captioned it, "Lights love family. Happy Deepavali to everyone."

5. Amitabh Bachchan will not be celebrating Diwali this year and it has to do with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

Big B and his family did not celebrate Diwali because of the passing of Aishwarya's father Krishnaraj Rai in March 2017. As per rituals, the family of the deceased minimise their festive celebrations for a year. Hence, the Bachchans will not be celebrating Diwali this year and will instead stay back at home for a quiet affair with family. 

6. WHOA! These two TOP actresses had a noisy CATFIGHT on the sets of a newly launched movie

This movie revolving around a road trip is certainly going through its fair share of problems. First, it had a delayed start because of finances and then its leading lady got pregnant delaying the film by months. And now the film has started shooting but we have heard of a catfight between the leading lady and one of the actress' in the film, whose relative is producing it. The best part is they have been acting the best of buddies for the entirety of the schedule!

The movie has many actresses and while an air of great fun, camaraderie and bonhomie between them have been projected right from the first day of shoot – the fact is, it is far from the truth. There have been creative differences on the sets right from day one, in the long schedule, as all the actresses come from different acting backgrounds. Now because this actress' kin is producing the film, she is focusing on every detail and frame so she can give the perfect shot and the leading actress, who is considered to be a diva in her own right, doesn't like it one bit. She is used to getting attention all the time and soon got irritated by the younger actress’s OTT dramebaazi.

7. Diwali 2017: Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra host an intimate bash; Karan Johar and Deepika Padukone attend it

Even as the entire week was full of several Diwali bash, Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra threw an intimate Diwali bash last night. Deepika Padukone and Karan Johar graced the bash with their presence looking their ethereal best. They were all smiles for the camera. 

8. Bachchans at Maldives: Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya, Abhishek, Aaradhya, Navya, Shweta and Jaya are the perfect family

Amitabh Bachchan celebrated his 75th birthday on October 11, this year. Instead of ringing in his birthday at his residence with his fans and his industry friends, Big B instead flew to Maldives with his family for a quiet and intimate birthday celebration. Joining the legendary actor was wife Jaya Bachchan, children Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan, daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan along with grandchildren Navya Naveli Nanda and Aaradhya Bachchan. We got our hands on a picture of the entire family posing together on a yacht in Maldives. The family looks happy as ever as they cuddled up for an adorable picture.

9. Kangana Ranaut: I am prepared for all fights that come my way

Kangana said in a statement about the #MeToo campaign, "It's a deliberate stand that I have taken against issues that I strongly condemn, issues like physical abuse, exploitation, sexual harassment and pay disparity. I am prepared for all the fights that would come my way. I know like-minded individuals, my well wishers worry about me, but we need to know that it's not going to be easy. I am super thrilled that I can use my voice and position for significant causes and I assure everyone that nothing will stop me from doing that."

10. Is Aamir Khan in Team Kangana Ranaut in the Hrithik Roshan scandal?

Aamir recently hosted a special screening of his latest film Secret Superstar which was attended by Kangana Ranaut. Apparently, it was said that the whole Bollywood has boycotted Kangana, but Aamir made it a point to invite her for the screening of his film. Talking about it, a source revealed to a leading news agency, "Aamir feels it is unfair that Kangana is being boycotted by Bollywood. So, along with his wife Kiran Rao, Kangana was the only person invited to the screening at the Ambani house."
