The Bollywood most popular super star Amitabh Bachchan remarked India as a developed country. While in a press conference promoting the latest leg of his “The Unforgettable Tour” in London Amitabh Bachchab said : India should no longer be dismissed as a “Third World” country but should henceforth be given due respect as a “developed nation”.

He made this statement replying the question - what it meant to be an Indian today and about the nature of the relationship between India and the diaspora, increasingly third or even fourth generation, scattered across the world?

Bachchan stated: “India today is a recognized force and I hope to see that India is no longer referred to as a Third World country or a developing nation – it should be referred to as a developed nation and a first (world country).”

He said: “Primarily we are very proud of our country, we are proud of our history, we are proud of our culture – it goes back thousands and thousands of years. We are proud that we fought for our independence, we are proud that we are the largest democracy in the world and we are very proud now of the way India is progressing after the economic liberalization.”

Bachchan is on world tour with his wife, Jaya, his son, Abhishek, and daughter-in-law, Aishwarya Rai. With other stars, including Preity Zinta and Riteish Deshmukh, have entertained Indian audiences in Toronto on July 18, Port of Spain in Trinidad on July 20, Los Angeles, on July 26, San Francisco on July 27, Houston on August 2, Atlantic City on August 9, Chicago on August 10, and New York on August 15. Shilpa Shetty is going to join the latest leg of “The Unforgettable Tour” by Bollywood actors which is to take place on Sunday at the 14,000-seat O2 Arena in London.

The current reports said that the tour will end after concerts in Amsterdam on August 29 and in Oberhausen in Germany on August 30.

After winning Big Brother show in the United Kingdom, Shilpa Shetty has made her place in the A- list of the bollywood stars. The small Britain stint has brought not only an inflow of cash and movie offers but has added her name in the most talked about people of the tinsel town.

After her recent success of Life… in a metro and being in the news for her relationship with a certain Mr. Kundar, Shilpa had recently come out with a yoga cd of hers in which she has revealed her yoga knowledge for a toned up body like hers. But most recently she has made news for herself by committing her dancing skills to be showed off at the ‘unforgettable’ world tour being organized by the Bachchan family.

Confirming the news of her being a part of the world tour Shilpa informs that she would be dancing in two acts sharing the stage with the very new bahu of the bachchan parivar, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. She explains her excitement to be working with Aish by stating that as both of them belong to Mangalore, she hopes that they would get along very well. Adding to this she claims that Preity, who is also a part of the show, is a hassle free person and would be good to work with. With this she recalls that it isn’t the first time she would be doing a stage show with Amitji but her excitement is at a different level when she has to work with the whole family.

When enquired about the sudden entry of her in the show, she replied that it wasn’t a sudden decision, they were planning it out and when it got finalized, it was announced. An all charged up Shilpa would be a part of the show throughout whereas Madhuri would perform in the United States and Canada and Akshay Kumar would be present at the inaugural show at Toronto.

After fighting one hell of a series at the DLF Indian Premier League (IPL) and boosting her team’s morale to the core, the Punjabi Preity is back on the Bollywood front with all her energies jam packed and so are her schedules as she is lined up with four films and the famous Bacchan world tour.

The oh so busy bee explained how the game got her so engrossed even not realizing the stuff she is missing out at the film front and informs that she has to start dubbing for two different movies titled “Har Pal” and “Heroes”.

The latter movie comprises of Salman Khan as her co-star. She has also signed a cameo in Salman’s next home production starring Kareena and the man himself. The film has been titled Mr. and Mrs. Khanna. Explaining her friendly bonding with Salman, she expresses her excitement to work for him and clarifies it not to be an ordinary item number but an interesting cameo. Another reason she states for agreeing to the stint is the director of the movie, Mr. Prem Soni being a very dear film and on the lighter note, she chuckles and reasons that as Salman has played a lot of Prems in different movies, so this cameo is for Prem.

Another prestigious director going ga-ga over Preity’s work is none other than Deepa Mehta of the Water fame who has cast her in her next Punjabi movie titled, “heaven on Earth” and claims that she is the best actress she has worked with till date.

Describing her experience of the Indian Premier League, she claimed that she has enjoyed the series to the core and learn her lessons too. Rubbishing the rumors of her sitting on a player’s lap, she claimed that it is not at all her to make a public spectacle by do8ing such a thing and denied her being of that sort.

The Mohali team co-owner also revives of the series time when she even got to realize who her real friends was, because there were a lot of her so called friends cribbing over not being called for the matches and making issues of no sense.

Learning her experiences from the series Preity admits she sure is a more mature person after the IPL and explains that there are a lot of things to be looked after for the next season of the Indian Premier League but as of now she has her commitments totally to the Bollywood front and is all set to deliver hits and recreate her magic on screen and on stage as well as she performs on stage with the Bachchan parivar on their World tour.

The ongoing Lakme Fashion Week (LFW) 2008 is rocked by many top Bollywood stars on show. The celebrities sizzled the ramp in top Indian designer’s creations in Mumbai.

The main attraction of the show included the first time ramp walk by the Saawariya fame Ranveer Kapoor. He showcased his designer friend Arjun Khanna’s collection. People gave a cheerful applause for the graceful Ranveer in an embroidered long coat with standing collar, straight pants in batik print and a scarlet tied around the neck.

Neetu Kapoor and Deepika Padukone cheered Ranbir as he walks the ramp for Arjun Khanna.

“I’m a bit degraded as far as fashion is concerned. All I know is through Arjun. He’s very passionate about everything in his life from designing clothes to his cars and bikes and even interior decoration. I love this guy to death and he asked me if I could walk on the ramp and I was more than happy to walk as I also love his fashion,” said Ranbir Kapoor.

Khanna’s collection offered evergreen slim fitted pants and cropped jackets. “Fabrics were coarser in my collection. I am looking at the fall-winter. I played with fabrics like Coudray, Cotton Coudray and Woolen Coudray. There is a lot of technique which went into making of all these clothes,” said Khanna.

Other Bollywood icons on the show include Urmila Matondkar, Farah Khan, Amrita Rao, Kajol and Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor. King Khan’s wife Gauri Khan was also there to grace the occasion.

Saif admitted to his relationship with Kareena at the Lakme Fashion Week in Mumbai last year. This year too the couple was spotted at designer Manish Malhotra’s showing.

It was for the first time the Bath and body product giant Lux showcased a line at the Lakme Fashion Week. Bollywood designer Manish Malhotra inspired by Lux’s new fruit extracts - strawberry, cream, peaches and put on display an array of flirty, feminine garments in shades of pink, ivory, oyster and coral.

“I have done it long time back when Urmila Matondkar walked on the ramp for the first time then. Then Preity Zinta, Kajol, Karishma Kapoor and Urmila all of these girls who have walked for me have worked with me for ten years. They believe in my brand, they believe in me, I believe in them and we had a long association but I just feel that now it has become that let’s make so and so walk. So I think now it is time that I don’t make any one walk so today I was the Lux boy,” said Manish.

Overall the day went totally unique and exclusive presenting the cool summer spring collections of Indian designers.
