Look who’s finally getting married. Vivek Oberoi! After struggling for years and then having a notoriously famous relationship with Aishwarya Rai, which not only took away his sanity, but also a little bit of hist dignity, Vivek Oberoi has decided to get married. Priyanka Alva, a Bangalore girl, met Vivek in Venice. It seems that the most romantic city in the world did its magic on them because they immediately went for an hour long walk which left Vivek reeling and completely besotted.
As an actor, Vivek has proved his mettle time and again, first with Company, then with Shootout at Lokhandwala and recently with Raktacharitra. Unluckily for him, he has made too many enemies in Bollywood, to be really noticed anymore. Let’s see if this wedding and with the lady luck by his side, if that aspect of his life changes. After being through some tough times in the industry, it is wonderful that Vivek has at least something to look forward to.
Let’s hope that with Vivek’s D-Day, comes the success and the accolades that he so certainly deserves.

It seems there’s no defeating Amitabh Bachchan anywhere. For decades, he has ruled the big screen with panache and now, with his small screen avatar in Kaun Banega Crorepati, he has done it again.
It is no wonder that the TRP of KBC is much higher than the other prime time shows hosted by Bollywood biggies like Salman and Akshay Kumar, both of whom are hosting some popular reality shows. While Big Boss is still relatively high up in the TRP race with Master Chef trailing right behind, KBC, in its first week itself, has completely overtaken both the shows.
A Unit member from the team of Master Chef shines some light on this, claiming that each reality show has its own sensibilities and therefore its own format and a loyal fan following. Kaun Banega Crorepati has been going on for a few seasons now and it would not be fair to compare it to the brand new format of Master Chef. Yet, the TRPs suggest that the fan following of Amitabh is much more than the youngsters could ever hope to achieve. Though it is true that all three shows are targeted towards different demographics, it is only the TRP that can convey the success or the failure of any of these shows.

The bad boy of Bollywood, Salman, has been known to have a soft spot for the poor and the suffering. It wasn’t too long ago when Salman was known to offer a new bicycle to a girl who’s bicycle got accidentally crushed under his wheels. Salman has also had the knack of appearing at many charitable events and other fund raising and social awareness events. In fact, a few years ago, Salman played a cameo in the Revathy’s heart rendering ‘Phir Milenge’, where he played the role of a man infected with HIV AIDS.
After advocating for poverty alleviation schemes, and for a better life for AIDS patients, Salman has now turned his attention to cancer patients. Salman believes that cancer patients should have a right to livelihood for as long as they are capable of working. He went as far as to say that a person who terminated the employment of a terminal cancer patient, will be terminated from this world by god himself.
Salman runs his own non governmental organization known as ‘Being Human’. His NGO picks up a variety of pertinent issues that might seem daunting to the society. The actor has pledge his own support to cancer patients and has also asked for his fans to support them as well.

Hrithik Roshan and Shah Rukh Khan are good friends and everyone knows about it. However, it was made a little more evident a few days ago when Hrithik took a break from his routine and actually went all the way to Berlin, to catch up with his good old friend Shah Rukh. Well, isn’t it stretching this a bit? We all know how friends want to be with each other and want to share intimate details of their lives, but to actually go to Berlin to catch up? Well these are simply perks of the gliterati.
Not that anyone is complaining! This meeting of Shah Rukh and Hrithik brings together two of the hottest hunks of Bollywood, and they must have surely put Berlin on fire. As if this twosome wasn’t enough, they were soon joined in by Karan Johar, Farhan Akhtar, Lara Dutta and Priyanka Chopra – the more the merrier.
It seems that all of these celebrities are hell bent on turning the sets of Don 2 to a non stop junction of partying and revelry. Well, all the best to them!
