Katrina Kaif beats top Bollywood stars in mobile search

New Delhi, (BollywoodWorld.com) Bollywood actor Katrina Kaif is the most searched celebrity on the mobile phones and has beaten the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Bipasha Basu and Aishwarya Rai.
The research was conducted by mBit Infotech, a Value Added Service(VAS) provider.
Among the Hollywood and Bollywood celebrities, Katrina is on the number one spot followed by Angelina Jolie, Kareena, Shah Rukh, Salman, Bipasha, Aishwarya, Monica Bellucci and Aamir Khan.
Commenting on the results, Raghavendra Agarwala, CEO of mBit Infotech, said: “It is amazing to see that Katrina Kaif is ruling the charts with a major pie, presumably implying that Katrina’s popularity is mounting for both national and international audiences.”
The research is based on the searches performed by over 120,000 users of mBit in the first quarter of 2010 (Jan to April) and it also found out that “sex” is still the most popular searched keyword followed by music where mostly international music icons like Akon, Linkin Park, Eminem, Lady Gaga, Madonna, Rihanna and Michael Jackson top the list.

No DTH premiere for “Hook Ya Crook” – David Dhawan

Mumbai, (BollywoodWorld.com) Director David Dhawan dismisses as “baseless” media reports that his film “Hook Ya Crook” won’t release in theatres but would instead arrive directly on DTH.
“Where did you hear this one now? Nothing like this is happening at all. I am not surprised by such rumours though. With so many news channels and other media forums to be fed, there is something that has to be written about day in and day out,” Dhawan told IANS.
“Really, all these talks of ‘Hook Ya Crook’ releasing directly on DTH instead of in theatres is stretching one’s imagination a little too far. This is news to me as well,” said Dhawan, who has been attached to the project for quite a few years now.
Considering that “Main Aurr Mrs Khanna” had arrived on DTH immediately after its opening weekend, a possibility like that can’t really be ruled out.
But Dhawan said: “It would be catastrophic if the film arrives on DTH so early. It is an expensive film and a big one at that. It needs to be seen in theatres first rather than on small screen.”
Announced in December 2006, “Hook Ya Crook” — starring John Abraham, Shreyas Talpade, Genelia D’Souza and Amrita Rao — has taken the longest so far for a Dhawan film to reach the finishing mark.
Change in cast, availability of the right actors, recession plaguing the industry and accidents during the shoot are just some of the many reasons that have delayed the film’s completion.
With producers UTV Motion Pictures not putting their money on any new and big projects, the production house may well be pinning its hopes on its long-standing project “Hook Ya Crook”.
“By December, we should be through with the shoot of ‘Hook Ya Crook’. Since the film is set in a jail and cricket plays an important part in the narrative, we are waiting for the dates from some key Indian cricket players.”
Talking about the delay, he said: “There is so much that is required in the making of a film. While we are waiting for this last schedule to get over, which would last for about 10 days in total, there is good progress being made on the post-production activities. The film is certainly not on hold, as some rumour mongers are busy predicting.”
Dhawan is gearing up to finish the film soon and release it in 2010.

Freida Pinto, Dev Patel: Break Ke Baad Side Effects?

After the much talked about the Break Ke Baad movie which released on last Friday and deals with the life and problems of modern couples who are at cross roads to choose between their careers and their love lives, it was being projected as being quite unrealistic in real life by many.
However, just to prove those people wrong, there is news about the leading stars of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’, Freida Pinto and Dev Patel going through the same situation in their real lives. According to the news going around, Freida has been clearly giving out signals that she and Dev were still together and despite their long distance relationship being seen as a break-up by many they actually are still a real life couple, very much in touch and also in love.
The couple, who had met on the sets of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’, had fallen very much for each other and since then had been spotted always together and very happy in each other’s company at the events associated with the film, right from promos, to premiers to receiving awards!
However, as time passed they had to part ways due to professional reasons, Dev Patel, a Brit actor had to leave for London and Freida Pinto had quite a few Hollywood projects that she had signed up for post Slumdog,so she had to be in Los Angeles.
Reports about the two visiting some famous bakery in the US also had come in with the two planning to tie the knot in India and all doing the rounds. But after a while the media forgot about the cozy two some, with some thinking that there was nothing left in their relationship post ‘Slumdog’.
Now, as Freida has come out with these revelations, it truly points out the dilemma that this generation of youngsters is going through in choosing between career and personal life- well break ke baad anyone?

Pucker up, jerks, and kiss her ... well, see below.

Cops: Angelina Pivarnick Punched Girl's Grill

Angelina Pivarnick, formerly of Jersey Shore and currently of various police lineups, didn't just get in a fight this weekend, she went after the girl. Hard.
According to law enforcement, the erroneously self-proclaimed Kim Kardashian of Staten Island punched some chick in the mouth in Atlantic City, N.J.
Ange was set to fight a Celebrity Boxing bout against another reality star - Kerry Schwartz, whoever that is - but got into an unsanctioned bout earlier.

AC cops claim the wannabe rapper was the aggressor at the Taj Mahal (shocker), allegedly punching the unidentified girl in the face and body.
Police say a summons complaint for simple assault has already been mailed to Pivarnick ... and she's due back in court later on this month.
Angelina says she plans on cooperating with authorities, but adds, "That night I feel I was provoked, taunted, and harassed into a fight."
"On top of that there are signs pointing in the direction that this was a set up against me and I have witnesses and evidence to prove this."
Just like on Jersey Shore when Snooki whomped her ass, we're sure she had NOTHING to do with it and the attack came out of nowhere.
