Shilpa’s wedding dress copied from Aishwarya!

There is a belief that Bollywood actresses make sure not to dress similar to their counterparts. But Shilpa Shetty did it just the other way while tying the knot with Raj Kundra. Believe it or not Shilpa’s wedding attire was an inch by inch copy of Aishwarya Bachchan’s wedding dress two years ago. What’s more surprising is that Shilpa did not even spare Aishwarya’s jewellery and took inspiration from there as well.

Shilpa Shetty looked stunning in a red designer lehenga-saree but a close look at her reminded us of Aishwarya two years ago. Like Aishwarya who had sported a Kundan to go with her golden sareer on her D-Day, Shilpa too wore a Kundan with her red saree. Even her hair was done taking inspiration from Aishwarya Bachchan. Seems like Miss Worlds can any day inspire the Big Brother winners to take a cue from them.

Abhishek-Aishwarya in State Dinner top 10 wish list

At a time when there is a virtual scramble for first State Dinner of US President Barack Obama on November 24 in honour of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, a US news outlet has come out with its own top 10 wish list of the invitees.Topping the list released by Politico ? known for coverage of the Capitol Hill and the White House ? is top industrialist Mukesh Ambani, who met the President early this year. He is followed by writer-turn activist Arundhati Roy.”As India has assumed a larger role on the global stage, Roy has spoken out against globalisation, Indian poverty and the country’s nuclear weapons programme ? though she has often stirred up controversy,” Politico said and put Thomas Friedman, author of The World is Flat next on the list, followed by Bollywood stars Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.”Rai and Bachchan (or Ash and Abhi, as they are known to their fans) are the biggest stars of Bollywood.

They have billions ? not millions ? of fans; Bachchan has starred in more than 40 movies, and Rai can earn up to USD 15 million per film. If Obama needed to boost his popularity around the world, here is his ticket to the heart of India,” it said.West Bengal Governor Gopalkrishna Gandhi too makes it to the wish list on the basis of him being the grandsons of Mahatma Gandhi; given the personal admiration of the Father of the Nation by Obama.”But politics and admiration for Mohandas aren’t the only things that Gopalkrishna and Obama have in common ? both have written books, and both have two daughters,” it said.Bobby Jindal, the first Indian-American to be elected as Governor of a US State, Raj Goyle ? the fast emerging young Democratic leaders are the two Indian American politicians in the wish list; which also includes Raghubir Goyal, White House Correspondent, India Globe.

Politico’s wish list also includes Jeffrey Immelt, General Electric.”As CEO of General Electric, Immelt knows a thing or two about India. His company is one of the biggest US investors in India. And since GE owns NBC Universal, Immelt knows a thing or two about celebrity and the news business. With NBC and GE stock both struggling, an invite for Immelt might be a much-needed vote of confidence,” it said.

Kareena as beautiful as Aishwarya

It might sound highly childish or silly and foolish when we say that Kareena Kapoor is deeply insecure about her beauty. And you know from whom? Of course, the one of the most beautiful ladies on earth Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.Apparently, when Bebo found out that Ash adorned the cover of film magazine with the cover story as 50 most beautiful people, Kareena got one done for herself too but on a different magazine.

A source reveals that after Bebo found out that Aishwarya Rai was gracing a ‘50 Most Beautiful People cover on a film magazine, she pulled strings and managed to get herself on the cover of another magazine doing the same story on the 50 most beautiful people in the country. Gosh!
We don’t understand when you have the likes of Aamir Khan falling head over heels for your beauty, why do you need to resort to such cheap measures to make yourself feel beautiful.

We hope you have heard the phrase Beauty lies in the eyes of the Beholder, Bebo! It’s up to the readers to decide who’s looking beautiful.

Aishwarya upset over claim that she demanded exhorbitant fee

According to a statement issued by her publicist, they found it alarming and rather sad that a channel by issuing such a statement is trying to ride on the popularity of Aishwarya to get publicity for their reality show. The statement further comments that Bachchan, who is known to be a true professional, had to refuse the show on account of her commitment to films. She is currently busy with a gruelling schedule of Guzaarish, while Endhiran (Ro- bot), Action Replay and Ravaan are all near completion thus the subject of monies and costing never did arise as discussions did not go beyond schedules and dates.

The statement closes with “This is not the first reality show that Aishwarya has been approached for. Various proposals have come along but her schedules thus far have not allowed her to even consider the same. We would again like to reiterate that it was wrong and unfair for the channel to proclaim that Aishwarya Rai Bach- chan was too expensive and, therefore, they had to go with another host when the discussions did not even go beyond discussing dates”.

Aishwarya Rai works for free

Hari has been Aishawarya’s close business advisory right from her pageant days and has supported her throughout.

A source close to the actress explained, “The film is being directed by Jagmohan Mundra who earlier directed Ash in Provoked. Aishwarya’s character of a lawyer who appears at the end of the film fights the war brides case and her presence is crucial to the climax of the film. The emotional story of the trial and turbulences of the war bride will be essayed by Hari Singh’s daughter Bhumicka Singh who was earlier seen in the Akshaye Khanna – Priyanka Chopra starrer Aap Ki Khatir. They begin shoot by next year and everyones very excited that Aishwarya’s agreed to be a part of the film that too without any charge, she’s just giving back to Hari Singh for his years of diligent service to her.”

Jagmohan Mundra confirmed the news saying, ‘Its true, Hari Singh has approached me to do the film and Ash has a special appearance which is crucial to the climax of the film. I’m thrilled to team up with Ash again.’
