Piping hot!
The City Crawl, a reality show where VJ’s hunt for the hottest and quirkiest
girl, boasts of many a celebrity. In Chandigarh, the action is unplugged…
If beauty is all about the eyes of the beholder then, perhaps, sexy lies in the perception of mind! IICE in association with Channel V rolls out The City Crawl, a reality show that puts together a bandwagon of celebrities, in their search for the hottest and the quirkiest girl of India. The entourage comprising the heavyweights — DJ
Sumit, Suryaveer Hooja from the band Ehsaas; DJ Sumit and DJ Quicksilver came crawling to Chandigarh to hunt for the right girls.
Says DJ Sumit, “The word hot does not mean vulgar; it’s a word used in common parlance very often today. But we are here to redefine the concept of hot.”
Three cheers
Chandigarh is increasingly becoming the favourite destination of international brands and the latest one to make a foray is none other Fashion Vodka Party Collection.

Taj, Chandigarh, a joint venture between Kristal Spirits and F Beverages Limited, an affiliated company of Fashion TV.
Punjabi scope
Miles off target
If only you could get a statutory warning with every movie ticket at the counter, you can at least prepare yourself for the big challenge ahead! Indeed, watching some films can be a real tough job. The first challenge is — find the story in the film. Viyah 70 km directed by Mushtaq Pasha successfully creates this hurdle, including many more like — join the different scenes together to form a complete picture, guess why the director picked a certain misfit actor.
A man in no hurry
Aftab Shivdasani is the only single guy in the male cast of Grand Masti as Riteish Deshmukh and Vivek Oberoi are married. The movie took him out of his comfort zone. He talks about the movie and his personal life.
Love life: I have never denied Nin's (girlfriend Nin Dusanj) existence in my life as she fills a truly special space in my life. I am very happy and contented. I guess there is a time and space for everything and I guess now is my time. I have never discussed my personal life in print and now too, I've said only what I need to say. I'm not the kind of person who likes to share personal details with everyone. I usually reserve that space for the two people concerned.
A date to remember
Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan, who was the guest of honour at a charity reception for an initiative for diabetes, met British Prime Minister David Cameron at his official residence. The event was hosted by his wife Samantha Cameron to mark the sixth anniversary of the Leicester-based charity Silver Star.
"Samantha Cameron, wife of PM UK, hosted evening at 10 Downing Street .. and PM David Cameron also present. A rare privilege for me !! Prime Minister David Cameron, gave exclusive time to us, in one of the many historic rooms of the Residence, 10 Downing Street," the 70-year-old actor tweeted.
GET PHYSICAL
Yoga or gymming— make a wise choice
"Healthy, wealthy and wise" —How truly these three adjectives can summarise one's wish list! Interestingly, health precedes the chronology! Certainly, health is the real wealth and in order to be healthy, one has to spend some time, money and mind as well. Using mind refers to being mindful about making a right choice about the kind of fitness regime one is adopting.
Chatter box
All spiced-up
Pratyusha Bannerjee seems to be hell-bent on becoming the controversial queen. After her sensational pictures with Sara Khan and posing in a bikini with her, she lodged a harassment complaint against her boyfriend, Makrand Malhotra. Now rumours are that the girl who played the dutiful Anandi in Balika Vadhu and is headed for the Bigg Boss house is dating a new guy. Reports are that she’s been seen with a businessman named
Kunal.
First-day-first show
Two shades of grey
John Day: Directed by Ahishor Solomon, John Day features Naseeruddin Shah, Randeep
Hooda, Shernaz Patel, Sharat Saxena, Vipin Sharma, Elena Kazan, Makarand
Deshpande, Bharat Dabholkar, Anant Mahadevan in the lead roles. The plot of the film elucidates on the mysterious death of a young girl, which unfolds a web of secrets and a conspiracy. The father of the girl, John Day, is a simple, honest and god fearing man.
Gautam, a nihilistic cop, the key player behind the tragic incident gets embroiled and sucked into the deep abyss that turns lethal. The thin line that separates the saint and the beast now stands blurred... broken... forever.
On a different pitch
Mandira Bedi has established herself as a yummy mummy and an actress to reckon with. She talks about her television show 24, her acting mantras and her family.
Superb team: Anil sir (Anil Kapoor) is a livewire. He brings a different kind of energy onto the sets. People younger than him cannot match up to his energy level. He is a great motivator, and I feel privileged to be a part of a project that has the likes of him and Shabanaji
(Shabana Azmi). They encourage you to bring out your best as a performer. It is interesting that I wasn't being considered for this particular role initially.
New record
Deepika Padukone has been paid a whopping Rs 2 crore for just two days of shooting for Kochadaiyaan. The makers have used some new technology and her full-fledged role will be taken care of with that technology.

Annu Kapoor in Muavza
Vicky Donor actor Annu Kapoor is shooting for his next film Muavza, a satire on the lives of the neo-rich of Delhi-National Capital Region (NCR). The film, being produced by Jagdish P. Gupta, is being directed by Girish Juneja. The actor is portraying the role of Bechu Bhai, Gujjar. Briefing about his role, Kapoor quips, "Bechu Bhai is a guy found in every mohalla (colony), every street and every village or city."
Muavza is an interesting satire focusing on how the expansion of Delhi and NCR into neighbouring villages has turned worthless lands of a few villagers into millions.
