Supreme Court issues notice to Salman Khan in 2002 hit-and-run case
![]() |
Salman Khan has been issued a notice by the Supreme Court in connection with the 2002 hit and run case. |
The Supreme court on Friday issued notice to actor Salman Khan on the Maharashtra government’s petition challenging a Bombay High Court verdict that acquitted him in a 2002 hit-and-run case.
Issuing notice returnable in six weeks, an apex court bench comprising Justice Jagjit Singh Khehar and Justice C. Nagappan told Salman Khan that “it would be much, much better if he gets acquittal from this court as it will save him from all the repercussions”.
Senior counsel Kapil Sibal, appearing for Salman, took the court through the proceedings of the trial court, contending that his conviction was based on the testimony of one person, which cannot be relied upon.
He said besides that there was no other evidence before the trial court to convict Salman Khan in the case.
However, Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi that besides the sole witness being pointed to by Sibal, there were scores of other witnesses at the accident spot who saw Salman Khan in the driver’s seat of the vehicle that ran over a group of people sleeeping on a pavement, killing one of them.

Salman Khan and Anushka Sharma celebrate Valentine’s Day
Look who just made Valentine’s Day even more special!
A super cute picture of Anushka Sharma and Salman Khan was released a couple of minutes ago on Twitter by the makers of Sultan.
Both the stars are dressed in tracksuits and Anushka is even holding a rose in her hand. The wordings on the wall in the background are giving an insight of the story and the quote with which the picture was released, further justifies that.
‘Haryana ka Sher aur Haryana Ki Shaan ka ghana ishq hai takkar ka. This #ValentinesDay, celebrate the love of equals’
And this click surely shuns all the naysayers who said Salman and Anushka’s pairing was not so promising.
It’s super adorable and definitely a perfect tease.
Sunny Leone goes digital with Ragini MMS
Sunny Leone, who is currently spending some quality time with husband Daniel Weber and family in the US, will soon return to begin shooting for Ekta Kapoor’s latest project, an innovative web series titled Ragini MMS 2.0. The actress will be seen giving an introduction at the beginning of each episode of the 10-part series. Following the found footage format of both the films, the web series will also be inspired by the Hollywood franchise Paranormal Activity.

Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya team up for an action film
While Sooraj Barjatya's brand of cinema has a reputation for being all about family and love, the director is set to depart from that with his next project with superstar Salman Khan. We hear the duo want their latest collaboration post Prem Ratan Dhan Payo to be much bolder and are keen to explore an action drama. So while Salman will still play Prem, audiences will see him in new light as an action hero. Salman and Sooraj have been having several meetings to lock the project's details and a three-month shooting schedule is set to begin as soon as Salman wraps up shooting for Sultan.
Finally! Katrina Kaif talks about Salman Khan
New Delhi: There are two kinds of celebrities we see in showbiz—one who believe in being a motor-mouth and others who remain silent most of the times. Stunner Katrina Kaif proudly falls in the second category.
Katrina has never really spoken at lengths about her relationships in public. However, the more she remains silent, the more people write about it. Curiosity surrounding her relationship status is so much that no matter if she is promoting her film, the questions are bound to be directed at the man in her life.
Finally, the lady has spoken. According to a report in India Today.com, Katrina in an interview with Indian Express talked about her relationship with Salman Khan. The man who is believed to be her mentor during her initial days in Bollywood.
She was quoted as saying, “A relationship or friendship or equation between two people never needs to be defined. It is important only for that two people involved to know what that equation is." In regards to Salman, what I believe in is that between us there is a lot of respect and I am sure you can see that. And for me, respect is a very important factor in any equation. The fact that there is respect says enough and there is no need to say anything more than that”.
She will be next seen in 'Fitoor' which releases on February 12, 2016.
That's quite a dignified stance, we say!
'Mastizaade' - Movie Review
Welcome to the warped, juvenile fantasy world of Milap Zaveri. This is the world where the men, Sunny and Aditya (Tusshar Kapoor and Vir Das) are blessed with 'chic-ray', a superpower that enables to see through women's clothes, it is in this world where a 'tarki' baba has to utter a few magical words for all his lady followers to go twisting and turning in a mass 'mangasm' (orgasm of the mind, if you please) and yes, it is in this world where Tusshar Kapoor is the object of lust for a hot woman, her brother and everyone else in the vicinity. And wait, in this world veteran actor Asrani's character is made to believe that two men are lusting after him. You want to know more after this point? Ok then. It is in this, Milap Zaveri's insufferably silly and offensive world, women (yes, each of them) can't wait to drop clothes at the mere sight of men, homosexuals are a constant butt of jokes, a handicapped man on a wheelchair is literally pointed and jeered at and there is even a suggestion of sex with a horse. So it would be fair to say that Zaveri puts in equal efforts in attempting to offend men, women and animals. Laila and Lily Lele (Sunny Leone in a double role) are the sisters running a sex de addiction centre. While Laila is the wild one who places coins on men's crotches to see if she can turn them on, Lily is the decent, homely type as her clothes are about a micro millimetre longer than Laila's. Oh yes, Lily also wears those mandatory pair of spectacles that makes you automatically look respectable in Hindi films. Laila is lusting after Sunny and Aditya has fallen in love with Lily. But there are some complications that the boys have to work through. Photos: Sunny Leone and other celebs watch 'Mastizaade' The film, touted as a sex comedy, is neither funny nor sexy. We are relentlessly served dollops of crude, unfunny innuendos instead. One flash of genuine humour comes in the form of the commercials that the friends make, but when you look at the whole picture, that seems like a stray stroke of luck than any kind of constructive creative thinking. As for the performances, it must have taken special efforts by the director to make sure that everyone is in a constant hamming mode. As if they are trying really hard to convince you that this ought to make sense somewhere but it evidently doesn't. It only goes from being silly to outright repulsive. By the time you reach the climax, which by the way has chubby Suresh Menon going around showing off his chest hair shaved in the shape of a heart, you can't wait to escape, as your senses have by now begun begging to be saved from this assault.
Are Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma heading for splitsville?
Rumours are rife about a possible break-up between Indian cricket sensation Virat Kohli and actress-girlfriend Anushka Sharma.
The hint of a possible break up came to light when the Indian cricketer and the 'pk' actress unfollowed each other on photo sharing website Instagram. There have been no confirmations by either parties but speculations of their relationship going through a rough patch is doing the rounds on social media.
Sonakshi Sinha to star in ‘Chameli Ki Shaadi’ remake?
Although a large number of remakes haven't reportedly worked in Bollywood, the remake fever refuses to die down. According to a report on Mid-Day, Anil Kapoor and Amrita Singh starrer 'Chameli Ki Shaadi' is the latest to join the remake bandwagon. The film will be helmed by Radhika Rao and Vijay Sapru, who are known for Salman Khan's 'Lucky: No Time For Love'. The report also mentioned that the makers are considering Sonakshi Sinha to essay the character played by Amrita in the original, which had released in 1986.
A well-known Aamir Khan film too is all set to be remade. Click the following slide to know more about it...
Sunny Leone: One Night Stand' to have moral lesson
Sunny Leone sizzles in 'Dekhega Raja Trailer' from 'Mastizaade
"The two movies that are coming out are more into 'If men can do something, why can't women?', 'As a woman if you fall, then you must get back up and rise'... In those ways, they are movies that have more of a moral lesson to learn from, I guess," Sunny told IANS. The actress seems sceptical about whether the audience will like her in that zone as she has not "ventured out of what people have seen".
"I have been giving what they (the audiences) have been asking for, but we'll see if they will like it," she added. Sunny, who ventured into Bollywood in 2012 with 'Jism 2', has mostly done films which are rated 'A', thereby suitable only for adult viewing. Would she like to try other genres as well?
"Well, yes! The next two films after 'Mastizaade' are in a different zone. By the title 'One Night Stand' doesn't sound like it. But once the trailers and the teasers are out, I think people will understand what the movie is really about. It is more on the serious tone," said Sunny, who first became popular as an Indo-Canadian porn star. "Same with 'Beiimaan Love'. It is also in a different zone than 'Mastizaade'. One of them might get rated in 'A', but maybe one of them might not," she added. Sunny will be seen playing Lilly and Laila Lele in director-writer Milap Zaveri's directorial. The film also stars actors Tusshar Kapoor and Vir Das. 'Mastizaade' is slated to release on Friday.
Sonam Kapoor: I'm very emotionally attached to 'Neerja'
Actress Sonam Kapoor says she is "emotionally attached" to her forthcoming film 'Neerja', a biopic on Neerja Bhanot, a valiant flight attendant who saved a number of lives in a plane hijack incident.
Sonam Kapoor-starrer Neerja Bhanot biopic to release on Feb 19
"I am very emotionally attached to this film. I met Neerja's mother in 2015 and it was an emotional moment for me.I want this film to reach to the widest audience so that people get to know who Neerja was," Sonam said here. "I am thankful that I got this opportunity to play this role. I only hope this film reaches everyone," she added. The Ram Madhvani-directorial features Sonam as Neerja, a Pan Am chief purser who was gunned down by terrorists when Flight 73 was hijacked to Karachi in 1986. She saved a number of lives but lost her own.
Sonam, daughter of veteran actor Anil Kapoor, said she has a lot to achieve in her journey in filmdom. "As an actress, I still have to achieve a lot. I have a long way to go. I only want people to know me for my work and films."

Discussed ‘Kyaa Kool Hai Hum 3’ script with my wife: Aftab Shivdasani
Aftab Shivdasani says when the script of "Kyaa Kool Hai Hum 3" was offered to him he discussed it with his wife.
Actor Aftab Shivdasani says when the script of his upcoming adult-comedy “Kyaa Kool Hai Hum 3” was offered to him he discussed it with his wife. Aftab, who has earlier worked in raunchy comedies like “Masti” and “Grand Masti”, plays an adult movie star in “Kyaa Kool Hai Hum 3” along with actor Tusshar Kapoor.
“I didn’t discuss the script with family and friends because they trust me But I did discuss it with my wife and she was very supportive and very encouraging. She was very positive about it,” Aftab told reporters. His co-star Tusshar added, “This is not a new genre for us. We are players in this genre, we have done two-three films in this zone so its like our everyday work.” They were speaking at the song launch “Hai Jawani” from the movie which features Gauhar Khan in a special appearance.
Directed by Umesh Ghadge, “Kyaa Kool Hai Hum 3” is the third instalment in the popular franchise. The previous two parts starred actor Riteish Deshmukh. Tusshar, who has been part of “Kyaa Kool Hai Hum” and its sequel “Kyaa Super Kool Hai Hum”, feels even though people like adult comedies it is no indicator that they will be successful too.
“It is definitely an adult film but one which will entertain and make you laugh. Not every vulgar movie works so don’t underestimate the power of the audience. They decide what’s good, what’s not good, what’s aesthetic. I am sure they will love this part too,” he said. The film, which also stars Mandana Karimi, Krishna Abhishek, Meghna Naidu among others, is scheduled to release on January 22.

'Dilwale' - Movie Review
'Dilwale'
U/A; Action-comedy
Director: Rohit Shetty
Cast: Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Varun Dhawan, Kriti Sanon, Kabir Bedi, Vinod Khanna, Boman Irani, Johnny Lever, Sanjay Mishra, Varun Sharma
One thing is clear. If you expect depth or even a hint of novelty in the story, go watch some other movie. If you expect a lot of style and action crammed to the gills with masala, stay right here. So you get the usual from a Rohit Shetty film; the 'funny' characters (Sanjay Mishra and Johnny Lever in this one) spouting unbelievably silly lines, which make you sheepishly snort with laughter once in a while, plenty of fights and the peppy songs with ever ready extras waiting to break into a dance as enthusiastically as fancy cars waiting to be blown up in air in style. You want more? Well, you do get more. Making all the silliness around it somehow credible is the presence of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol together with that magical chemistry.
This is a film with a story that belongs to the '90s co-existing with cars that belong to the next century. Meera (Kajol) and Raj (SRK) are the children of two warring Mafia dons and they end up falling in love. Raj was a one-man army in a black leather jacket before he succumbs to Meera's charm and goes all soft and romantic. A twist of fate separates the two and also gets Raj to turn into a good man. 15 years later, Raj is a doting brother to Veer (Varun Dhawan) and also the owner of a garage full of, what else, Shetty's tools of fantasy - fancy cars. Veer's love for Ishita (Kriti Sanon) brings Meera and Raj face-to-face again, leading to another twist. Kajol, as expected, is excellent in emotional parts but her chirpiness when playing the younger self borders on being annoying. Shah Rukh Khan is fabulous as the earnest lover boy and as the older and mellower man 15 years later. His eyes belie many emotions as he plays the angst-ridden lover waiting to clear the misunderstanding with the woman he loves, to perfection and to the gallery. Varun Dhawan is endearing and sincere as ever. Kriti gives good support. But then the younger couple, or for that matter everything else, fades into the background when SRK and Kajol look into each other's eyes. Even if you are not a Rohit Shetty fan, watch this for the chemistry between SRK and Kajol which refuses to simmer down even after all these years.

Daisy Shah: I did Hate Story 3 due to lack of good offers!
Daisy is being lauded for her role in “Hate Story 3″, but the actress says she wouldn’t have done the erotic thriller if she had “good offers” in hand.
Daisy Shah’s film career failed to take off despite debuting opposite Salman Khan in “Jai Ho” and the actress says she was “disappointed” with the dearth in offers post the 2014 movie.
Daisy is being lauded for her role in “Hate Story 3″, but the actress says she wouldn’t have done the erotic thriller if she had “good offers” in hand.
Daisy is being lauded for her role in “Hate Story 3″, but the actress says she wouldn’t have done the erotic thriller if she had “good offers” in hand.
“If I had got good offers after ‘Jai Ho’ I wouldn’t have done ‘Hate Story 3′. I did not get good offers and I was disappointed, but it also gave me a push to work harder on myself,” Daisy told IANS.
The former assistant to choreographer Ganesh Acharya feels it was the “right” decision to get out of the comfort zone and try something new onscreen.
She said: “But now I feel it was the right decision to do ‘Hate Story 3′ as it’s good for an actor to discover new roles and new characters. Now, I feel even if I would have got good offers after ‘Jai Ho’ I still would have done this film.”
Directed by Vishal Pandya, “Hate Story 3″, which also stars Sharman Joshi, Zareen Khan and Karan Singh Grover, was released on December 4.
Daisy feels there is demand for ‘masala’ and bold content as well.
She said: “Sex (in Indian movies) has been selling for almost a decade. Unless you get a big star in the movie, the movie works or else you need that masala in the film. People are coming in theatres so they get entertained and they pay so much, so they need that bold content. ‘Hate Story 3′ has a good story and bold content, so it’s like icing on the cake.”
