Born stars
Even before they are born, they are in the news; they have an official fan page, a twitter handle. Even before they open their eyes, a dedicated few are placing bets on their eye colour. Celebrity children create a never-seen-before kind of hype before and after their birth. Even before they learn how to stand on their feet, the tabloids are fighting to catch them in their right pose. Forget about national and international matters, these kids unknowingly turn the radar on themselves.
Check out the hullabaloo that the birth of Prince William and Kate's son has created. It looks like the world was created for this moment as everyone awaits the first glimpse of the 'future king.' News of people betting on the royal, the look of the child, eye colour, name, hair colour have already been in the news. Suddenly we discover new websites, which are inviting people to send congratulatory messages to the royal couple. Not only this, there are Facebook accounts on the kid who obviously is oblivious to everything! Youtube has become hyperactive with the video of the marriage of the royal couple which is the most watched video over the last three days. This is the kind of attention a celebrity kid kicks off. How could we forget how the spilt up between Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise made their spunky 6-year-old daughter Suri Cruise a topic of concern for one and all. Closer home, everyone except for Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan were talking about the couple's surrogate child. Talking about surrogate child, Aamir and Kiran Rao's kid Azad received similar attention. And who can forget, the hype Aishwarya and Abhishek's kid Aaradhya had created? Someone actually posted the kid's fake pictures on Internet. What is it about celeb kids that makes everyone dedicate their time discussing and talking about them? In the spotlight When every move of a celebrity is caught on the camera how can anything which is related to them, especially their children be not talked about? Shares Pankaj, an RJ, who was surprised with the message he received on his mobile, "The biggest war in India is over--the war between SRK and Salman Khan, now rest of the wars against women, corruption, environmental degradation can be handled easily-does it explain the hype that we create about celebrities? Today, the entire world is talking about the royal couple's son. Have we spared any though for the pregnant women who died in Uttrakhand?" Pankaj feels it is the public that creates celebrities. "It is the public who wants to know anything and everything about the celebrities and their kids, their house, their car, their watches…just about everything." Big deal These celebrity kids, be it Aaradhya, Suri Cruise, Shiloh or Willow Smith, influence so many things around them. Actor Karan Kundra, who hosts Channel V's Gumrah season 3, doesn't find the attention uncalled for. "They are born to celebrity parents who in turn have chosen a particular lifestyle for themselves. It is natural that they get such kind of attention. Shah Rukh Khan's kid will definitely be talked about because he is a star. What matters is the values that these stars give to their kids." Excuse
us please A bulletin containing details of the birth of the son of the royal couple was taken by car to Buckingham Palace and placed on an easel at the palace gates for the public to see. "Being born to a celebrity parent is not a blessing. Why don't we wait to talk about them till the time they prove themselves," wonders Dr Param Preet Ghuman, medical practioner, ESI Kharar. The cameras zoom when SRK goes to the airport to pick his son Aryan. "Celebrities world over will get the attention," Sneha Singh, a corporate client manager from Ludhiana says. "We love to read about celebrities. In fact many people feel a kind of a connect with them. Celebrities also feel the need to share their news with their fans, so there is nothing wrong in the hype a celebrity kid gets."
No kidding
Here's one baby that the world still can't get enough of! The adorable daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes has been in the spotlight even before she was born! Suri is the youngest fashion icon ever, wearing only couture and having her own fashion blog to boot! |

Right choice
Focus…pretty much like his name, the actor has never lost track of where he has wanted to go, not in a lightening speed though. Bollywood actor Arjun Rampal has always maintained his focus and patience. Tell him that he has the attributes of a tribal hunter, and he would answer with a laughter, which doesn't compel you to join in or smile yourself, but a laughter that says 'I am amused'.
With his latest project D-Day, the Rock On star is on a high these days. With the industry waking up to this model actor, Arjun takes it in his stride. He always gave his best to all the projects, but people noticing him now, 'is strange', he laughs, saying it all. On the film D-Day, Arjun says, "I knew Nikhil Advani and the kind of films he had done before, all romantic, so when he narrated the script and how he wanted to execute the action scenes, I thought how he would do it. I am amazed at the way D-Day turned out." Arjun had to work a lot on his character and looks. "We wanted the character of an agent to look real, for this Irrfan and I actually learnt how to defuse bombs, how to send a signal when the enemy is watching," adds a thrilled Rampal. Rock On, Rajneeti, Om Shanti Om, Inkaar, Heroine… Arjun Rampal did not cry from the roof-top that he wanted to do different roles. "The audiences are smart, they are accepting movies like Dil Chahta Hai, Barfi. I don't want to do dry and boring films which are more like a long lecture." His criteria for selection of a film have only grown with time. "I choose subjects that are topical, films that can stimulate and entertain the movie-goers. The subjects should be fascinating and interesting," puts in Arjun. He has definitely changed the perception of many who talked about his dead-pan expression and thought that models couldn't act. "I don't point fingers at anyone. I am not part of any race. We all learn to make the right and wrong choices with time."

On the go, always
Following her dream, Radhika Bangia, has continued her journey in India, her country of birth and New Zealand, where she was brought up. Put a travel show in between that she's been anchoring, Radhika is living a busy life!
In Chandigarh, for Annual Passing Out Fashion show of Inter National Institute of Fashion Design, Chandigarh, this Kiwi beauty talked about her passion for Bollywood that pulled her from the closed, secure life she was leading with her parents in Auckland to travails of city of dreams, Mumbai. "I am fascinated by the films and thought of giving it a good try," says Radhika who landed up in movie Meri Shaadi Karao. The response to the movie was 'so so' but that hasn't deterred Radhika from chasing her dreams. And, she thanks god for a supportive family. "My parents do get worried about me like all parents do. But they have faith in me and find me 'responsible'." She misses living with her family but for the growth of her career, she is ready to compromise with the comforts of life and explore newer territories. Mumbai is way different from her hometown Auckland, but this gutsy girl has made it hers. "Compared to metropolitans like Mumbai, Tokyo or Los Angeles, Auckland is rather easy, quiet and safe." On glamour industry being challenging and stakes high, says Radhika, "There would be good people, bad people, weird people everywhere. I have managed to steer clear of awkward situations so far." Radhika is here to stay in India for sometime more, work is decent and opportunities aplenty. She is as much hoping to land into good films as other hopefuls like hers. mona@tribunemail.com

CELEB POINT Divya Dutta 
Yes, I am basking in the adulation for Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. People I don't know too are sending messages through common friends. It struck a chord and how! To have people come up and say bada rulaya aapne. It makes you smile. What a gratifying feeling! Thanks to you all. I am overwhelmed and humbled. And back in my work field, offers are pouring. When you are successful, people here see you differently. But I observed something else too. Besides treating and perceiving you differently, I've noticed a respect they've acquired for me. A faith that you can deliver. You rise above their expectations, you survive and succeed on your own terms, breaking norms, and you have your own place in the industry which is just yours. It all reflects in how they talk to you, even the truly hardcore commercial ones. As for me, I am having a blast with my favourite unit. Shaking a leg with Farhan Akhtar, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and Milkha ji… Celebrating a beautiful experience called Bhaag Milkha Bhaag... And learning a lesson which I once felt awkward about! Learning to say no. Learning not to feel guilty for refusing someone! As Anupam Kher told me, “No is a magical word. It should liberate you, not make you awkward.” I am learning that and to liberate myself above the mere filmy dealings. I am looking for only that what gives me happiness, be it work, be it people! Like cycling early morning in the rain with the wind brushing your face, welcoming a new morning, reading a few good scripts, meeting my friends for a cup of coffee! Yes, I want to live each moment, live it all and look back and know that I made the best of that precious thing called life! (Dutta is a Bollywood actress)

Smile & make up
A slight curve of the lips sets a lot of things straight. Just like Raveena Tandon Thadani’s pearly whites put behind a one hour late appearance. The rhetoric on dental care, a couple of shocking statistics and facts on oral hygiene precedes any interaction on cinema. Joining her is her six-year-old son Ranbirvardhan Thadani, smiling and proudly flashing his missing front tooth.
“He lost his tooth just last night and wanted to ask tooth fairy for chocolates,” she laughs while in Chandigarh to launch and introduce Oral B’s latest toothpaste. In between, there is a mention of her sensitive teeth, prevalent oral care issues and disapproval of aerated drinks. “I encourage my children to have coconut water or juice rather than aerated drinks.” Ranbirvardhan gets off the stage and she looks after the questions, trying her hand at Punjabi in bits and parts. “My father’s side is from Punjab and whenever I come to North India, I try to speak the language. Though in Mumbai, everybody speaks Hindi only. There we don’t get to speak it very often.” Her constant vigilant eye has the child brought back under surveillance. Would she be forthcoming with the kids following in her footsteps? “These days you have no clue as to what the children want to do when they grow up. But yes, if it is a good decision, we’ll definitely support them.” In the pipeline are a couple of movies that are waiting to be announced. “I’ve signed a couple of films but they need to be announced properly before I start speaking of my character and role.” It’s an era in the industry when a comeback is as much under scanner as a debut. There must be pressure once she returns. “I don’t think I ever left, so there is no pressure. These days, the media keeps you alive. Moreover, the television keeps your body of work in circulation too.” Sometimes, it’s the role and at times it’s the song. Come monsoon and her rain dance number from Mohra starts airing at the radio stations. “They often call me also asking for my reaction to the song. It’s nice if you can be remembered for your work.” Having hosted a couple of reality shows, it’s a conscious break that she’s taken from the silver screen only to be able to pick and choose roles. “I’m very choosy about the roles I do and I’d rather spend that time with my children because film offers will still keep pouring in but once my children grow up, their childhood will never return.” What still remains to be explored is a completely negative character. “I haven’t played an out and out villain yet. That’s something I’ll look forward to.” She adds, “I think the food has been laid, I’m so hungry. Will take a last question and then let’s
It’s time we quizzed her on the remakes or sequels. Her Andaz Apna Apna, lends itself to both the possibilities. “I don’t know if that’s a good idea. Once a classic is made, it’s made.”

When music is ibadat
Hamsar Hayat Nizami has got music in heritage. Son of Ustad Hayat Khan Sahab, his ancestors have been the custodians of the classical music and
this singer-composer has carried on the legacy.
In Chandigarh on Monday for Guru Poornima Utsav by Shri Sai Dham, Hamsar maintains that music to him is ibadat. He sings at places of worship, be it a dargah or Sai shrine but maintains a distance from religions. “My performances address the supreme for He is the one who is the mover and shaker of all,” says Hamsar. Born in Delhi, he has got an opportunity to showcase his classically trained voice for movies like Tathastu, Fire, I Don't Luv U and Punjabi film The Real Friend. “I have also sung in two upcoming Hindi films,” says the singer. He seems bitter for all the years of hard work, riyaz and god gifted talent hasn’t led him to the heights his compatriots have reached. “Honey Singh would sit beside me when no one knew him and I would be recorded. Now, he is a name to reckon with,” says Hamsar adding in the same breath, “I can make songs likeTere ghar akhbar ni aata just like that. But I would rather stick to Sufi.” He hums Ae ri sakhi mere piya ghar aye, bhag lage is aagan ko… to prove his point, ruing again, “Even if a singer wants to sing Sufi, there are very few who can understand it.” But he finishes on a positive note, “I want to make my music reach where it is needed.”

Nostalgic trip
Manoj Kumar turns 76 today and is well known as a writer, director, editor and actor of patriotic films. He remains the first writer to win a national award for scripting Shaheed in 1965. However, there is an interesting anecdote about Manoj Kumar and Satyajit Ray. Ray saw Shaheed a number of times and appreciated its climax. He shared an excellent rapport with the young and imaginative Manoj Kumar. At the International Film Festival in New Delhi in 1967, Ray came across Manoj Kumar.
He told him that he saw Upkar but found it melodramatic. To this Manoj Kumar after a brief silence asked, "Manikda (Ray's nickname) please take into consideration the scene in your Charulata where Soumitra Chatterjee first come across Madhabi Mukherjee. There is a thunder sound and lightning in the background. Is it not melodrama?" A smiling Ray hit him affectionately on his back and said ," You have caught me."
Priyanka Chopra is proud of herself for taking India on the international platform with her video Exotic, featuring Pitbull.

Pitbull.

Soon after, she participated in Miss Tourism in China and rose to the sixth position in the international pageant.
Huma’s steps to success
Weight issues
I don't have weight issues. I'm an actress first and whatever the character demands on the screen, I need to be that person. If that person is on the wrong side of the conventional scale, then that's the demand of the role. I am not a thin person and I am fine with it. Impressive co-stars Nawazuddin (Siddiqui) has impressed me a lot. It was only when the shooting of Gangs of Wasseypur ended that I came to know who the real Nawaz is. Before that, he was completely in his character. I'm also working with stalwarts like Naseer saab, Madhuriji (Dixit) and Arshad Warsi in my upcoming films. They are simply brilliant. I feel honoured to have work with them so early in my career. Journey in Bollywood As a film actress, I get to travel a lot and play different characters. Also, I get to Hands full Those who say that I've done many films in a short period of time don't know how and who I was before I got my first film. I've had my share of struggle. I don't belong to a filmi background, so for someone who came from Delhi and eventually made herself at home in Mumbai, I've done pretty well. But even today, my criteria for a film remain the same: the script has to be challenging and people should be engaging. Big break I always knew I wanted to be an actress. But at the same time, I wasn't the kind who would give just a couple of auditions and complain, kaam nahi mil raha hai (I'm not getting work) and give up. I was determined to work, be it for TV, theatre, ad commercials or short films. I wasn't waiting for my big break. I believe that attitude has certainly paid off for me. The big break found me because I chose to work with determination instead of sitting at home and complaining. |
