Will Smith hungers for chicken tikka and Aishwarya

     Washington: Hollywood superstar Will Smith, who is in India to launch a new movie channel, said that there are two things that he simply must do - taste some authentic chicken tikka, and work with Aishwarya Rai. The 'Switch' star, who revealed that he was fascinated with the Indian movie industry, said that he would love to work with Bollywood's leading lady Aishwarya. "Just recently I got to know the number of films Bollywood makes a year - a whopping 800. And each with its share of song, music, dance and drama. I am simply enticed to be part of it. I would do anything that Aishwarya Rai will be part of. I love her so. I also want to taste the authentic chicken tikka masala," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying. Smith will be launching the new TV channel Pix, and appear on TV talent show Indian Idol while in the country.

Brosnan says Craig will have the last laugh (Go To Top)

     Washington: Irish superstar Pierce Brosnan insists that though the new Bond star Daniel Craig will certainly experience a few more cuts and bruises on the sets of 'Casino Royale', he will still have the 'last laugh' when it comes to the movie. Brosnan said that like him, Craig, who recently got a few of his teeth knocked out when a stunt went horribly wrong, would be able to weather the storm. "I got stitched up and sewn up a few times, it just didn't get in the papers. I think Daniel is a very fine actor. These are rocky waters and they're going to get him one way or another, but I think he will have the last laugh at the end of it," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying. "You get twisted some way or another if you throw yourself into it. There's going to be mishaps," he added.

    Washington: British beauty Keira Knightley, who recently received an Academy Award nomination for 'Best Actress', has revealed that her 'Pirates of the Caribbean' co-stars Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom seem to get a thrill out of teasing her about it. Knightley, who has received the nomination for her role as Elizabeth Bennet in the latest movie adaptation of Jane Austen's novel 'Pride and Prejudice', said that the two teased her mercilessly at every opportunity they got. "They've been taking the p**s out of me. Every time I do a take, they say, 'Oh, is that an Oscar-nominated take?'" Contactmusic quoted her, as saying.

Keira finds her sex scenes 'exhilarating' (Go To Top)

     London: It seems that posing in the buff for Vanity Fair magazine was not the only thing British beauty Keira Knightley enjoyed, for she recently revealed that she also found her sex scenes in the movie 'Domino' to be exhilarating'. Knightley, who has received a nomination for her role as Elizabeth Bennet in 'Pride and Prejudice', said that she had found her steamy romps with co-star Edgar Ramirez extremely invigorating. "I found it extraordinarily exhilarating," Femalefirst quoted her, as saying. And, film bosses are now hoping that Keira's fans, will want to study her assets more closely, will help save the movie from flopping on DVD as it did at the box-office.

Lee support to Daniel Craig  (Go To Top)
by James Blonde

     Washington: British actor Daniel Craig may have come under fire for being chosen as the man to follow in the footsteps of legendary Bond actors Sir Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan, but he is not without supporters like acting great Christopher Lee, who has urged critics to back off until they see his performance in 'Casino Royale'. Speaking at the Bangkok International Film Festival in Thailand, the 'Lord of the Rings' star urged people not to label Craig a loser in his role in the new Bind flick beforehand, and to reserve their judgement until they have seen the movie. "People should not pass judgment until they have seen the film. There's been a lot of nonsense written about him being James Blonde," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying.
