I'm ready to marry: Bipasha

After break-up with John Abraham, Bipasha Basu has been linked to Shahid Kapoor, Rana Dagubatti and Josh Harnett. However, the actor is unfazed by the link-ups. "You will continue to see me with Shahid and Rana. If people want to continue discussing us, they are free to do so. It's not going to


stop me from having a good equation with them or put an end to what I do in my personal space," Bipasha told HT correspondent Prashant Singh.

Bipasha broke-up with John Abraham after nine years of commitment as he wasn't ready to take their relationship to the next level, reportedly. However, speculations are rife that John may soon tie the knot with investment banker Priya Marwah, whom he has been dating for a while now.

At a recent press conference of Players, when Bips was asked about how she feels about 'someone close to her getting married,' she said: "Nobody close to me is getting married. If somebody close to me does get married, I'll just wish him luck, that's it. There is nothing more to it."

What about her own plans to settle down? "Aap ladka dhoondo na. Main shaadi ke liye taiyar hoon, par ladka toh dhoondo pehle (You search a bridegroom. I'm ready for marriage)."

So is she interested in a B-Town hunk? "Why does he have to be from Bollywood? A handsome man, with a great sense of humour is all that I want."

Search for Bips' Mr Right is on!

Big B does photoshoot with pet dog

Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan must have posed for thousands of photoshoots. But this, with his pet dog Shanouk, was unique!

"Did photoshoot with Shanouk, my Piranha Dane for cover of a magazine on dogs by the ebullient Farzana Contractor, wife of BusyBee (Behram Contractor)!!" Amitabh posted on his Twitter page.

The 69-year-old, who loves spending time with his dog, even posted one picture out of the photoshoot, and wrote: "That picture is of Shanouk, my Piranha Dane...Shanouk - a warm gentle breeze on a cold winter morning..."

Recently, Big B had shared his thoughts on how his dog had been feeling ignored ever since Abhishek and Aishwarya had a baby. But one can guess, the special photoshoot must have taken care of the pet`s feelings.

Bipasha Basu to dance like Helen in Players

She has won over filmgoers with multiple dance numbers like Beedi Jalaile... and Namak Ishq Ka...(Omkaara). And now, Bipasha Basu is set to raise temperatures with Ho gayi Tun in Abbas-Mustan’s upcoming, Players.

And interestingly, her dance steps have been designed along the lines of
yesteryear dancing diva Helen. “We had asked choreographers Bosco-Caesar to put in a touch of Helenji – in terms of body movements, expressions and powerful steps. But it’s Bipashanot an exact copy,” says Abbas.

He adds that though the movie’s other cast members are also present in the song, “they don’t have lines in it, so technically, it’s a Bipasha song.”

A major part of the song was apparently shot in a famous Moscow nightclub. “In the song, Bipasha is trying to seduce a Russian army officer. She wasn’t just dancing, but she also playacting because it’s part of the narrative,” informs Abbas. However, since the nightclub was open only from 5 pm to 4 am, leaving little time for set-up and re-takes, makers couldn’t shoot the entire sequence there. “We only shot important parts of the song in the nightclub. For the rest, we erected an identical set in Chandivali Studios,” Abbas admits.

The film, an Indianised version of Hollywood hit The Italian Job (2003), also stars Abhishek Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Bobby Deol and Omi Vaidya.
