Filed under Entertainment

The long talks between the Bollywood damsel Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Shankar for the Rajnikant dream project ROBOT have finally reached to a conclusion leading Aish to sign the movie for which she is being paid mind boggling money estimated to be around six crores making her the actress to be paid maximum ever in the Bollywood history. The project being produced by Ayngaran international, is supposed to start off in the last week of August after a small pooja, as opposed to the first week of June, as plans originally, due to some problems.

Considering the whopping amount being given to Ash, date problem could not have been an issue for this star struck actress and as considered, she has offered bulk dates to the producer. Lately being in the news for the Bachchan parivaar’s “Unforgettable World Tour” which is being organized by Wiz craft and starring a list of some A-list bollywood celebrities, Aishwarya now sure has become every actresses’ envy. The world tour, which is to begin on July 6th is almost a two months long event after which the Bachchan bahu is goin to start off with her Robot.

In the meanwhile, till the time Aish covers the world tour, Shankar is planning to shoot a song for his movie which does not require her presence. As the lady finishes the family professional tour, she would again be globe trotting with the crew of Robot, as Shankar plans the shooting of his dream project all around the world.

Her recent release, Ram Gopal Verma’s sequel to his hit Sarkar, Sarkar Raj, also brought accolades to the actress where she was seen with her new family, Mr. Amitabh Bachchan and the hubby dear Abhishek Bachchan. With all the new big projects falling in her kitty, be it Hollywood or Bollywood, Aishwarya is sure in her best face of the Bollywood career, but now the question lies, is all this sudden luck, the Bachchan charm or is it her self made status and her hard work which has made her the maximum paid actress?? Whatever be the reasons, Best of luck for her career……

Bal Thackeray called Bachchan as ’superstar of India’!

Filed under Entertainment

After criticizing Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan through an article in Shiv Sena mouthpiece Samana, party chief Bal Thackeray on Monday put to rest all rumors against the actor and taking a U-turn called Bachchan a ’superstar of the entire country’.

Two days before Bal Thackeray praised Tamil super star Rajnikant for his stand on the Hogenakkal issue and inversely criticized Bachchan. He said that Amitabh is more loyal to Uttar Pradesh where he born but showing no concern for Mumbai where he is living presently and got stardom. He called Amitabh ‘dwarfed’ on the issues relating to Maharashtra.

But in today’s editorial he dismissed the words and told Bachchan as his family friend. He said that he has high regards for the actor.

“Amitabh is not just star of one particular state, but the superstar of the whole country. Hence it is improper to drag him into needless controversy of regionalism,” Thackeray said in the editorial.

Thackeray also targeted Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati in the editorial for ‘harassing’ Bachchan by raking up trivial issues and said this ‘is worthy of contempt’.
