4. A Bollywood DIVA and a LEGEND are MIFFED with this SUPERSTAR
A beautiful Bollywood actress waiting for a hit is MIFFED with this superstar she stars with. The film also toplines a legendary superstar and a young actress who starred in the biggest blockbuster of Bollywood last year. So what makes this beauty angry? Now this superstar (not the legend) has been mentioning to all and sundry, including the media in his interviews, that the actress does not have an important role in the film.
5. Hrithik Roshan: I had tears in my eyes when I saw the Amul hoarding
Hrithik Roshan spoke to another channel about the Kangana Ranaut controversy and how it affected him deeply. He said, "The only time I actually had tears in my eyes was when I saw this huge Amul hoarding with my brand Krrish, which is something that is built by me, it is like my baby. And that brand was completely demolished on that visual. And it said something like Krrish being run out, being caught stealing some cheese or something. That was probably the only day when I felt that this is not right."
6. WHY these two TOP male SUPERSTARS are currently at LOGGERHEADS with each other!
A few months ago this brand manager stopped handling a certain top male superstar’s work because sudden issues surfaced between them. His family sided with him and because of that stories started coming out on the family being the reason behind the manager’s exit. But the truth was something else, which neither side wanted to reveal! Soon, the manager found another top superstar’s work to handle and it all seemed well for some time. These two superstars have been friends before.
Kangana Ranaut and Hrithik Roshan's infamous verbal battle is now a spectacle for the audience. While many are simply irritated with this never-ending saga, the controversy doesn't seem to die down anytime soon.After Farhan Akhtar, Yami Gautam among others have openly extended their support to Roshan, Rangoli took to Twitter to hit out at them saying that Kangana has always fought her battle alone and doesn't need anyone's support. In a series of tweets, Rangoli said, "These small minded people should know Kangana is not here to fight them, she has a higher purpose and bigger cause, when they laugh at her, gang up on her and humiliate her the joke is on them."
8. These two top MALE STARS are waging a COLD WAR over their next RELEASE
The filmmaker must be ruing the day he signed these two male stars for his film. First, the two actors took their own sweet time to sign the film. They finally signed it after many assurances from the filmmaker and inking a tough contract to ensure that their roles would be substantial and neither would get a raw deal. Both the actors were paid almost the same amount to prevent acrimony between themselves, though one has a more substantial and author-backed role than the other. The two have presented a fake front of cordiality and friendship in front of the world till now but now that the film is almost complete, the cracks are getting wider and tension between the two leading actors is threatening to split this stunningly beautiful romantic drama wide open.
Amitabh Bachchan celebrated his 75th birthday tomorrow with his family in Maldives. The actor was spotted at the airport earlier this week along with son Abhishek Bachchan, daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and granddaughter Aaradhya Bachchan.
10. Hrithik Roshan opens up: My divorce was NOT because of infidelity issues
When Hrithik Roshan was asked if his divorce was due to the Kangana Ranaut factor, the actor totally denied it. Hrithik said, "Absolutely not. Sussanne has been very very vocal about this. She has been very vocal. And I feel like laughing at people. When people get divorced, it is not always because of infidelity by the man. That is just such a small minded assumption. I am just trying to say that there are many reasons why people would like to live separate lives. Infidelity is just one of them. So the general assumption was, 'Ah he is the superstar, he must have done something wrong. She must have caught him..' That is not the case. We are great friends. It is between us. The reason that we decided to live separately may have been an inspiring reason, how do you know?
