Don’t need Salman, Shah Rukh Khan: Kamal Haasan

Kamal Haasan is miffed with reports that have claimed that he has approached Shah Rukh, Salman and Jackie Chan for his upcoming film Amar Hai after Vishwaroopam. He said that he is fed up of of these baseless rumors that have him approaching either the Khans or Hollywood stars like Jackie Chan or Tom Cruise. He said that he does not need Salman or Shah Rukh Khan to sell his films and is certainly not the Bollywood – obsessed regional actor he is made out to be.

Kamal insisted that he is not out to leave his footprint in Bollywood and is content to make his kind of cinema. He said that the only actor he was dying to work with is Dilip Kumar. About Amar Hai, his next film, Kamal said it is a film on corruption. He added that he will discuss it at length once Vishwaroopam hits the screens.

Nursing Soldiers Come Under Fire

A photo of two military mothers nursing their babies while in unbuttoned airman battle uniforms has created quite a stir on the Internet.

Air Force Sgt. Terran Echegoyen McCabe and Staff Sgt. Christina Luna - both in active service - agreed to be photographed in support of Breastfeeding Awareness Month for the Mom2Mom Breastfeeding Support Group.

“I’m proud to be wearing a uniform while breastfeeding,” McCabe told the Today Show. “I’m proud of the photo and I hope it encourages other women to know they can breastfeed whether they’re active duty, guard or civilian.”

But apparently, the women violated a policy that forbids military members from using the uniform to further a cause, promote a product or imply an endorsement, said Capt. Keith Kosik, spokesman for the Washington National Guard.

Crystal Scott, founder of Mom2Mom, was shocked that the photos have caused such controversy.

“A lot of people are saying it’s a disgrace to the uniform,” she said. “They’re comparing it to urinating and defecating [while in uniform].”

Aishwarya Rai weight issue, baby and Cannes 2012


Aishwarya Rai weight issue seems to have perplexed the whole nation. Meanwhile she and her baby are touring Europe after red-carpet show at Cannes 2012

Aishwarya Rai and her seven month old daughter Aaradhya are making headlines across the world. For more than two weeks since her appearance at Cannes 2012, she has been hogging the limelight. And to be true there is no Aishwarya film set to be released anytime soon.

Aishwarya has hogged the limelight this whole month for her weight if nothing else. Almost every Indian newspaper including Indian Express and Hindustan Times carried Aishwarya Rai’s photos looking very fat. The weight was visible from her face too. Even her double chin was visible from far away and people were rightly shocked.

But putting on weight is nothing unusual for a mother who has delivered a child a few months ago. In traditional Indian families, a pregnant woman is not allowed to do any work. And this ultimately leads to putting on more and more weight. Ash too seems to be no exception, at least in this regard.

Meanwhile many Bollywood starlets are coming out in the open to support Ash on her weight issue following pregnancy. The latest to jump to her defense is Kajol who has come out very strongly after child birth. While talking about Aishwarya Rai, she says, “It’s stupid to have this conversation. Everyone has the right to their lives and to look the way they want to…Tomorrow I can put on 25 kilos… it’s my choice, my body! She’s (Aishwarya) at home, taking care of her baby. As long as it doesn’t affect her work, I don’t understand why it should be under discussion.”

Following these reports of Aishwarya putting on weight when it was said that she would appear at Cannes and walk the red-carpet, there was sort of unbelief. She walked the carpet at Cannes this year as always for L’Oreal and the company. But everyone was amazed when Ash finally appeared at the Cannes. Kilos of extra weight that was visible on her body and face was nowhere to be seen. She was wearing a body hugging jacket over an Indian sari and looked fabulous.

Right now she is enjoying the summer in Europe with her seven months old daughter. But she has ensured so far that no photographer is able to come close to her daughter and snap her photos.

Shah Rukh banned from Wankhede for 5 years

The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) Friday slapped a five-year ban on actor Shah Rukh Khan from entering the Wankhede Stadium over his alleged misbehaviour at the ground Wednesday night.
Khan, co-owner of Indian Premier League (IPL) team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), had allegedly misbehaved with security personnel and MCA officials Wednesday night.
"The managing committee of MCA condemns the behaviour of Shah Rukh Khan. After his fight at the stadium Wednesday night, the actor has shown no regrets for his action and behaviour. In fact, he justified his actions. The managing committee is forced to ban Mr Shah Rukh Khan from the entering Wankhede Stadium," Deshmukh said after an emergency meeting of the MCA here.
He said nobody could support such behaviour, be it the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the Indian Premier League (IPL) or the MCA.
"Our decision to ban Shah Rukh Khan was unanimous. There was a proposal of lifetime ban, but we want to send a message that this is not how one should behave," Deshmukh, the union minister for science and technology, said.
"This is a message for everyone. Anyone who misbehaves or breaks any rules shall face a similar ban," he added.
"We have already written to BCCI and have apprised them of the situation and the decision that might follow. We don't expect 
anybody to pressurise us to change our decision," he said.
Asked why no committee was set up to probe the incident, Deshmukh said that majority of members were present during the brawl and they were all witness to the incident.
"As most committee members were present during the brawl, they were all witness to the entire episode and hence there was no need to set up a committee to investigate the incident," he said.
According to the resolution passed by MCA after an hour-long meeting, Khan will not be able to enter Wankhede Stadium for five years "neither as a team owner not as a member of the audience".
Replying to allegations by the actor that his daughter was manhandled by MCA officials, Deshmukh said: "We have not received any complaint from Shah Rukh Khan yet. He is unapologetic and justified his actions."
"We will also genuinely look into the matter if Shah Rukh lodges a complaint regarding the same," he added.
"We have informed BCCI about the ban, but since this property belongs to MCA, we have decided on the ban," he added.
Deshmukh said a complaint has been registered in Mumbaia's Marine Drive Police Station by the MCA officials and that the police is investigating the matter.
On Thursday, Deshmukh had termed the event as grave and said a decision will be taken on the ban after going through the entire sequence of events.
Stating that the security personnel and officials from the MCA were equally rude, Khan had maintained that he will not apologise for his Wednesday night behaviour.
Khan allegedly misbehaved and pushed the security guard at the stadium and also abused officials of MCA when they tried to intervene late Wednesday night.

Sunny Leone was shy shooting lovemaking scene: Mahesh Bhatt

All that glitters is not gold and all porn stars are not bold, says the inimitable Mahesh Bhatt while revealing that Sunny Leone was shy and uncomfortable while filming the lovemaking scenes with Randeep Hooda in her Bollywood debut "Jism 2".
"I always knew that she is a very shy person. Just because she is a porn star doesn't mean that she has lost her feminine quality of being shy. During the lovemaking scene with Randeep she was finding it very difficult to do it comfortably," Bhatt, who is producing the film, told IANS over phone from Sri Lanka, where "Jism 2" is being shot.
" 'Jo nazar aata hai wo hota nahin hai'. All that glitters is not gold, all soldiers are not brave, all holy men are not holy and all porn stars are not bold. At times reality is different," added the filmmaker.
The Indo-Canadian adult star of Punjabi origin was finalised for the role by Bhatt during her stint in the reality show "Bigg Boss 5".
"Jism 2" is a sequel to 2003 film "Jism", in which Bipasha Basu's steamy scenes became the talk of the town.
Pooja Bhatt, who had produced the original, is directing part two.
Sunny surprised the entire crew with her shy behaviour.
"Everyone was surprised with her shyness, but I understood that it will be difficult for her. It's not easy to shoot a lovemaking scene; it is a very demanding thing. Those who believed that it would be a cakewalk for her will be shocked by this revelation," said Bhatt, who has also written the script of the film.
"Jism 2" will see Sunny as seductress Izna. The love triangle also features Arunoday Singh.
Randeep, who shot lovemaking scenes with Mahie Gill in "Sahib Biwi Aur Gangster", was equally uncomfortable while shooting the scenes.
"Even for Randeep it became very challenging although he has shot similar scenes before. One has to understand that it's not a fighting scene," Bhatt said.
Named by Maxim as one of the 12 top porn stars in 2010, Sunny, whose real name is Karen Malhotra, recently, celebrated her 31st birthday in Sri lanka.
Bhatt said Sunny wants to move on from being just a porn star and is looking forward to establishing herself as a part of tinsel town.
"Sunny is concerned how she will be perceived by the world as an actress because everybody knows her just as an adult star. She wants to be known for something more than that," he added.
Sunny's career seems to have taken off here. Apart from "Jism 2", she has also bagged a role in a sequel to "Ragini MMS". She has also endorsed a phone and a condom brand.

JLo tops list of world's most powerful celebrities

Jennifer Lopez dethroned Lady Gaga as the world's most powerful celebrity, according to a list published Wednesday by Forbes magazine in which the queen of US television Oprah Winfrey came in in second place.
The singer of numbers such as "Let's Get Loud" and "Love Don't Cost A Thing" has hurtled upwards from the No. 50 slot she occupied last year in the magazine's ranking of the 100 most influential movie, TV, music and sports stars.
"The Latina...parlayed her position as a judge on American Idol into hit singles, increased album sales, an upcoming world tour, three new movies and a growing portfolio of endorsements," wrote Forbes, which measures the fame, power and earnings of the stars.
JLo, who last summer separated from Marc Anthony, amassed earnings over the past year of $52 million, more than double the $25 million she earned the previous year, according to the figures compiled by Forbes.
The star, who is of Puerto Rican origin, unseated New Yorker Lady Gaga, from the No. 1 spot on the list, with the former top celebrity falling to fifth place because she did not tour much recently, although she also earned $52 million and her influence on the social networks continues to be "tremendous".

"Viva La Revolution!" THE BATTLE OF ALGIERS Coming To UK First Time On BluRay

Argent Films launches its new HD Collection of Cinema Classics with the first ever UK Blu-ray release of one of the most acclaimed films of all time. Presented uncut and digitally remastered in HD from the original 35mm print, this release of The Battle Of Algiers also commemorates the 50th anniversary of Algerian independence.

The deserved winner of numerous awards, including a BAFTA UN Award and both the Golden Lion and the FIPRESCI Award at the 1966 Venice Film Festival, the film is a regular fixture in critics’ and filmmakers’ “Greatest Movies of All Time” lists and was also nominated for three Oscars, including Best Director and Best Foreign Language Film. An extremely powerful, deeply moving and often shocking cinematic experience, it’s an astonishing film that presents a poignant and admirably unbiased view of a tragic period in modern history. As powerful today as it was on its original release, it is, perhaps, even more relevant in today’s global political climate than ever before and makes for essential viewing.

    Set during the 1954 to 1962 Franco-Algerian conflict, the film effectively and authentically recreates the pivotal political events that took place in the city of Algiers between 1954 and 1957.
    In an attempt to end French colonialism, which had been in place since 1830, in 1954 the Algerian National Liberation Front (FLN) began a war of liberation, using terrorism to highlight the plight of the Algerian people to the rest of the world. In response to the escalating terrorist violence in the city of Algiers, the French government sent in an armed force of paratroopers to crush the uprising. Authorised to use whatever force and methods were believed to be necessary in bringing an end to the revolution, the actions of the French military led to a regrettable catalogue of atrocities being committed by those on both sides of the conflict.

Wanna Enlarge Your Breasts? Try Breast Slapping!


Women are bombarded with images of big-busted women via advertising and the media, making many feel inadequate and leading them to regard bust size as a “life-or-death” issue.

Ladies who want to enlarge their breats should consider heading to Thailand to undergo breasts slapping. I am dead serious, ladies! Slapping? Yes, breast slapping is an officially approved method of breast enhancement.

Khemmikka Na Songkhla, a Bangkok beautician invented the method of breast slapping that was eventually approved by Thailands government health board in 2003 as a natural alternative to surgery.

Ms Khemmikka says she has enlarged the breasts of thousands of Thai women over the past 14 years – not with chemicals or silicone, but by using traditional massage. Reports show that breast slapping can increase breast fullness by 4 within 3-6 months of continuous treatment.

The treatment involves a kneading action that massages fat from surrounding areas around the breasts, and pushing them towards the breasts. The fat from other areas of the body eventually fill the breasts to create a fuller appearance and size. Breast slapping can be relaxing, stimulating and painful.

The routines were supplied by a Bangkok beautician, Khemmikka Na Songkhla , who has been pursuing a patent for her grandmother’s secret fat-kneading technique. Unlikely as it seems, the idea is to shift one’s unsightly bulges to more strategic areas up front.

When Ms Khemmikka was an adolescent, her granny mocked her for wasting time rubbing her nipples with a miracle cream in hopes of sprouting big breasts. She said she should rub the old-fashioned way, until it hurt. By repeatedly pushing any flab from her sides and midriff towards her chest, and afterwards dousing Ms Khemmikka’s breasts with ice water, her granny boosted her breast size by 4in and her confidence soared.

Ms Khemmikka, now 35, says her shapely breasts are all the advertisement she needs and has marketed the technique in her beauty parlour for 15 years. Six sessions cost $380, and yield an increase of up to 4in without injections, chemicals or implants.

But the lucrative business threatened to go bust after a client developed breast cancer and blamed it on her breast massage. Distraught, Ms Khemmikka asked the Health Ministry to learn if there could be a link with breast massage.

Dr Pennappa Sapcharoen, the deputy director of the traditional medicine division, told her no clinical trials had been done, but she was intrigued by the technique. The ministry launched a six -month study on volunteers aged 20 to 60, and found vigorous massage left their breasts cancer-free and measurably bigger.

Pennapa Subcharoen, head of the Public Health Ministry’s Thai traditional medicine institute, said Khemmika’s methods were equivalent to the exercises used by body builders.

“It is like men going to a gym to build specific parts of their bodies by lifting weights with that part,” Pennapa says. “In Khemmika’s case, she tries to move fat from parts it is not supposed to be to where it should be

Ms Khemmikka helped the Institute of Thai Traditional and Alternative Medicine to come up with its three-month regimen of self-massage and daily breast-boosting exercises. Dr Pennapa also insists that skinny girls must eat more if they expect to increase the size of their mammaries.

Khemmika, 34, advertizes on a billboard in front of her house-cum-clinic in a suburb of Bangkok that she can “beat small busts to be big.”

“The slogan is merely a ploy to draw people’s attention,” says Khemmika’s husband, Pasit. “In fact, we massage them or slap some parts of the body to enlarge the breasts.”

Khemmika squeezes, pinches and slaps fat and muscle on the upper chest, the sides of the torso, and the belly of clients with cream or gel in six 10-minute sessions. After the treatment, which patients say is painful, Khemmika instructs her customers in special exercise techniques and massage to keep their breasts in shape.

Her customers come from a wide range of backgrounds, ages and professions. They range from college girls in their early 20s to a 70-year-old retiree. Models, actresses and politicians have all attended her clinic, she says. “These women once had chicken-egg size breasts. After the course, they have become ostrich egg size,” she says.

But not all can attend Khemmika’s course. Khemmika has to turn down customers who are too skinny or do not have much fat on their upper chest or sides of their torso. “I just tell them: Go back and put on some weight before coming back to me.”

Many women thought this treatment was a joke when it was first reported, but the track record speaks for itself. And there seem to be no major risks associated with this technique. Go book your ticket to Thailand now.

World's first 3D porn film to start shooting

Producer Stephen Shiu Jr said his company One Dollar Production will start work on "3D Sex and Zen" in April, reports Variety. Fancy two glasses of wine? 3D Sex and Zen will start shooting in April

The film will be a sequel to the 1991 hit "Sex and Zen" and has a budget of HK$30 million (£2.8 million). Shiu claimed making it in 3-D would be the best way to beat movie piracy.

Starring actresses from Japan and Taiwan, the film will be a tale of how excess can lead to tragedy.

The original "Sex and Zen" was based loosely on a 17th century Chinese literary classic "The Carnal Prayer Mat."

3D porn film 'sells thousands of tickets' - watch YouTube trailer

3D porn film Sex And Zen: Extreme Ecstasy is about to open in Hong Kong and has already sold thousands of tickets, with people preparing to travel from mainland China to see it.

The huge success of 3D Sex And Zen: Extreme Ecstasy has catapulted its stars to worldwide fame, in particular the three leading actresses Vonnie Lui, Yukiko Suo and Saori Hara.

Loosely based on Li Yus seventeen century classical Chinese erotic literature, The Carnal Prayer Mat, the raunchy Category III film, directed by Hong Kong director Christopher Sun Lap Key, chronicles the story of a young man who, after being introduced to the erotic world of a duke, realises his ex-wife is the love of his life and features orgies, swinging and some very graphic sex scenes.

Vonnie Lui Hoi Yan is a Hong Kong busty porn star. Yukiko Suo and Saori Hara are both Japanese AV idols (adult video idol). An AV idols work in the pornographic business, often both as actress as well as model with the video performances ranging from just the idol doing chores in bikinis around their house to hardcore porn.

Since the dawn of the AV industry in the early 1980s, hundreds of AV idols have debuted every year, with an average career span of about a year, appearing in five or ten videos during that time.

Notable AV idols have careers spanning several years, have a high general public recognition, or make a significant impact on the industry in some other manner.

The line between “adult” and family entertainment in Japan is not as clear-cut as it is in some other countries. A celebrity may appear in AVs after already having established a career in mainstream television. Also, it is not rare for a popular AV actress to go on to mainstream celebrity. A background in porn is not necessarily a skeleton in the cupboard anymore. In some cases, its a career move.

The AV, or “Adult Video” market is a major industry in Japan, reportedly worth about 400 billion per year. In 1992, it was reported that over 11 AVs were being made every day by over 70 production companies in Tokyo alone. The AV market was estimated to make up about 30 percent of Japan’s video rentals. It was estimated in 1994 that, between legal and illegal videos, around 14,000 AVs a year were being made in the country, in contrast to about 2,500 in the United States.

AV actresses are usually recruited by scouts in Tokyo neighborhoods such as Roppongi, Shinjuku and Shibuya. These scouts are affiliated with talent agencies who then hire the actresses to the AV production companies. Some women wishing to appear in AVs apply to the production companies, but they are usually referred to the talent agencies. The production companies are typically charged 1.5 million or more for an actress to appear in a video. AV actresses make between 200,000 and 4 million yen per video.

Steve Scott, president of Third World Media, an importer of Japanese adult movies to the United States, estimated a top-tier AV star could make up to nearly 36 million for an eight picture deal.

AV fans are invited to follow the progress of a prominent AV actress’ career over several video appearances. In her AV debut video, the actress is introduced as a “new face,” and her inexperience is played up in interviews preceding the modeling and sex scenes. Following this debut video, the AV audience follows the actress’ journey through sexual awakening, and her eventual specialization, after about five AV appearances, in a specific genre such as lesbianism or SM.

Once the actress has established herself as a mature AV star, she has the options of continuing into some of the more outrageous AV genres, retiring, or, sometimes, re-emerging under a new name as a “new face.” With the immense publicity surrounding 3D Sex And Zen: Extreme Ecstasy, there has been a great deal of googling for more information and photos of Yukiko Suo and Saori Hara. I will
feature these two AV stars in my next two articles. So stay tuned!

The Incredible Hulk XXX Porn Parody turns blue movies green


The famous all-green comic book superhero is bursting out of his clothes once again in the X-rated film based on the 60s television series.
The film, created by adult entertainment film house Vivid Entertainment, is called 'The Incredible Hulk: An XXX Porn Parody'.
It's the latest in a line of X-rated flicks from Vivid based on superheroes, others being Superman and Spiderman.
According to Vivid, they worked hard to make sure their film still had the feel of the old school TV programme, right down to the hairstyles and costumes.
The plot will also remain the same, with Dr Bruce Branner transformed into his alter ego after a mishap with a gamma radiation machine.

Actor Lee Stone, who plays the Hulk in his transformed green giant state, said that he is used to dressing up as weird creatures for raunchy flicks, having played demons and cyborgs in the past.
'Any time anyone does anything with prosthetics, they think of me,' he said.
However, producer Shylar Cobi says the prosthetics caused a problem during the more physical scenes.
'The make-up won't stand up to a BJ!' he quipped.

Vivid Entertainment say they plan to make similar steamy spoofs of The Green Hornet, Captain America and Thor.

Pregnancy can't be planned, but won't mind adopting says Jennifer Lopez

Mother to four-year-old twins Max and Emme, singer-actress Jennifer Lopez feels pregnancy is a gift from god and happens when it has to happen. But she says she also started considering adoption after working in her new film.

"I'm not opposed to it (pregnancy). It's a blessing, if something like that happens, it's only a blessing from god. And it's so funny, people think they plan these things, they don't, either you are going to have it because it's meant to happen or you're not," said the 42-year-old.

"And that's it, and you can't force it or push it or do anything. It's something from god, it's something that's destined," she added.

Lopez's forthcoming release is What To Expect When You're Expecting. In the film, she plays Holly who adopts twins from abroad after having difficulty conceiving.

"Before the movie, I never really thought about adoption at all. I was so focused on having my own and it took me a while to have my own. But after the film and during the making of the film, I held those two little twins and you fall in love instantly…It really occurred to me, I can see how somebody can do this. And I can definitely see myself doing this sometime," Lopez said in an e-mail interaction.

In real life, the Latino star gave birth to her twins in 2008 with now estranged husband Marc Anthony.

The new film, which will be released by Top Entertainment in India Friday, tells the tale of six couples experiencing the thrills and surprises of having a baby. It is based on a popular book on pregnancy by the same name. The book sold more than 14.5 million copies in 2011.

"What To Expect When You're Expecting" also features Cameron Diaz, Elizabeth Banks, Chace Crawford, Brooklyn Decker, Dennis Quaid and Rodrigo Santoro.

Lopez admits she didn't have to prepare much for her role, thanks to her real-life experiences. "My babies were three at the time I was doing this movie and the memories of being pregnant were fresh in my head, and I didn't have to do something totally different, like the exact opposite of what I had experienced," she said.

"But when you hold the little Ethiopian twins you can really see how easy it is to love another child who is not yours and the entire experience was beautiful," she added.

Lopez said she wants to set a good example for her kids in real life. "I just feel like it's one thing you really want to get right in your life, you can mess up and make mistakes and do a lot of things. But when it comes to your kids you're like, 'I really don't want to mess this up, I really want them to be ok'," she said.

"I want them to be happy and loving and confident and all the things that make a great human being. To a certain extent as a parent we always do something that's gonna push them this way or that way. But this is the one thing I really want to get right," she added.

Shaan's love recipe - stick to one person at all times

The singer, who is busy preparing for musical festival, said: "There's a lot of dance rehearsal. We're revamping all the numbers so they feel fresh and new. We're doing all new arrangements for the songs - but not going too far away from the originals, because people go to see what they love so you don't want to change it too much."
For the choreography, Lopez is getting help from her dancer boyfriend Casper Smart.
"He's supervising choreographer and we're just working together to make the best show that we can make," she said. 
The tour will be opened by Wisin and Yandel, who already have a duet song called "Follow the leader" with JLo. 
Together with Enrique, they will kick off the music tour July 14 in Montreal and than travel to cities in North America till August.

Jolie wants different ethnic traditions at wedding

Actress Angelina Jolie reportedly wants to incorporate different ethnic traditions when she weds Brad Pitt.
She wants the ceremony reflect the different ways people celebrate marriage, in particular, the home countries of their adopted children - Cambodian Maddox, 10, Ethiopian Zahara, 7, and Vietnam-born nine-year-old Pax.
"She wants to incorporate different ethnic wedding traditions from around the world into one alternative ceremony and event," contactmusic.com quoted a source as saying.
Pitt is said to be more keen on their wedding being more traditional, and held at their French chateau.
"They both agree on the essentials, like the fact they want it to be a big celebration with their family and friends. Brad is traditional, whereas Angelina can be alternative. Brad envisioned a traditional ceremony, followed by dinner, speeches and a party," said the source.
