ANJANA SUKHANI READY TO WEAR BIKINI















Anjana Sukhani says she is game for bikinis if her role really demands it. Though she has adopted a glamorous persona in films like Golmaal Returns and Salaam-E-Ishq, the actress is yet to join the bikini brigade."It's not in my wish list either. However, there comes a point in your career where you get a film that requires you to shed your inhibitions. Of course, the role that I play has to be of utmost importance - if it is justified for the character to wear a bikini, then I won't fret about it," said Anjana.Skin show has taken a different dimension in the last few months with actresses like Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Minissha Lamba and Amisha Patel getting into the swim wear for their roles. Also, with dozens of film and fashion magazines hitting the stands, actresses are making a bee line to be seen on the cover."I'm very sure about the fact that posing seductively for the camera doesn't really pay. It can't help you grab work. What eventually matters is how talented you are and whether you can deliver goods on the screen," said the actress who had grabbed attention in the Cadbury ad with superstar Amitabh Bachchan.But being in the glamour world where beauty sells, isn't that a dicey statement to make? "Of course, looking pretty is a valuable thing, but then talent matters as well", said Anjana. "At the end of the day, it is about coming up with a balancing act. Being 'just pretty' or 'just talented' doesn't help because one of them working just in isolation can't take you anywhere. You have to have a good mix of both." Mo<"My dad has always said that you should do things that reflect the goal that you want to ultimately meet. If a small step taken by me helps me get closer to that goal, I won't mind doing that as long as I don't cross any limits," she added.In that case, how does she look back at her first few steps when she had just started her career with films like Humdum (2005) and Sun Zarra (2006)?"I continue to be emotionally attached to these films because those earlier steps reaffirmed that I existed and paved the way for me to appear in bigger and better films. I didn't come from a filmy family; nor did I have any supermodel experience that could help me get work. Those were testing times and everything that I decided to do, I had to do it on my own without any godfather supporting me."With Jashn, Tum Milo toh Sahi and Allah Ke Banday in the pipeline, life is certainly looking up for Anjana.

Winehouse declines Eminem's offer



Troubled singer Amy Winehouse has turned down rapper Eminem's offer to collaborate with him for his new album Relapse.Eminem, who has mocked Winehouse in his upcoming single We made you, was hoping she would be able to help deliver him another hit like 2000's Stan, on which he collaborated with British pop star Dido, reports contactmusic.com.But Winehouse passed up the chance to work with the rapper on his forthcoming comeback record Relapse, according to British newspaper The Sun."Eminem has followed Amy's career closely. They have both had drug addiction issues and he empathises with her and hoped to feature her on (comeback album) Relapse. His idea was to make a track as magical as Stan. But unfortunately Amy declined," a source said."He understands that recently she hasn't been in a state to focus on music because of her tumultuous private life but he hopes they will get together on a future project

Madonna's adopted son meets biological father


Pop superstar Madonna's adopted son David Banda met his real father in Malawi, but could not recognise him.David did not know the language and they had to communicate through an interpreter, mirror.co.uk reports.Father Yohane said: "He asked me in English who I was and what I do. When I told him, 'I am your daddy', he looked surprised.""We spent three hours together... he played with my nose and, although he did not know who I was, he asked me lots of questions. David is quite chatty and intelligent. He asked whether I ride horses, but I told him horses are for the rich. He asked me why I am poor. He said his mum likes riding horses and told me that one day he and his brother, Rocco, rode horses and fell. He said his mum spanked him because they are not supposed to ride on their own."The boy also told his dad how much he misses his nanny, who recently quit working for Madonna. Yohane said: "He misses her a lot because she used to read him books. Nowadays, he has different nannies and he doesn't like the situation.""He said David also spoke of his good relationship with Madonna's ex-husband Guy Ritchie. He seems to likes his daddy Ritchie so much. I was sad Madonna broke up with him. I would have loved it if they sorted out whatever problems they had instead of divorcing."

Aamir's Taare Zameen Par in Poland


Justify Full Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan is already a household name in Poland. Now fans eagerly await another star Aamir Khan's directorial debut Taare Zameen Par during a seven-day festival of Hindi films in the European nation and will travel to 12 Polish towns.The festival, Experience the Real Taste of India, is being organized by the Indo-Polish Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IPCCI) along with Epelpol Entertainment. The festival opened with Deepa Mehta's Water. At least seven new Bollywood films will be shown in 12 towns during the next seven days. Apart from big towns like Warsaw, Poznan, Wroclaw and Gdansk, the films will be shown in some smaller towns like Koszlin, Lodz, Szezecin and Bydogosz. "Let the mountain come to Mohamed is the main purpose. Normally people from the smaller cities are left out for the release of important Bollywood movies. This time we saw to it that we should encourage more and more people to watch our successful movies in the length and breadth of the Polish nation," said JJ Singh, President of IPCCI.

"Poland has become an important destination for Bollywood in eastern Europe. What the Soviet Union was for Raj Kapoor in the 1950s and 1960s, Poland is now for Shah Rukh Khan in the first decade of the 21st century. No wonder, the organizers have included Shah Rukh's latest successful movie , Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi," said Janusz Krzyzowski, President of the India-Polish Cultural Committee. Shah Rukh Khan has become a household name in Poland. For the past four years his movies, such as Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Kal Ho Na Ho, Kabhi Alwida Na Kehna, Main Hoon Na, Dil Se and many others, have been shown in Poland. This time Aamir Khan's Taare Zameen Par will be featured. "The chances are that Aamir will leave a great impression on us. After all he commands a great respect everywhere. And why not in Poland!" said Anna Bem, an Indophile who has lived in India for many years.


Tarun Mansukhani's Dostana, John Jeffcoat's Outsourced, Atul Agnihori's Hello, and Vijay Krishna Acharya's Tashan will also be screened during the festival.
