Shiney Ahuja sentenced to seven years in imprison

Award-winning Bollywood actor Shiney Ahuja was sentenced to seven years in prison for raping his maid. Shiney Ahuja was granted bail in October 2009 and ordered by the court NOT to leave Mumbai, the home of Bollywood, three months after he was arrested on charges of rape, criminal intimidation and wrongful confinement of his maid who is now 20 years old.



The 37-year-old Bollywood Actor will appeal against the sentence in the Mumbai High Court says his lawyer Srikant Shivade while speaking to reporters. Shiney Ahuja won a slew of awards for his 2003 debut in the critically acclaimed “Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi”. According to his lawyer, the actor has maintained his innocence throughout the judicial process.

During the period of 18 months between his arrest and sentencing to jail for 7 years, the actor is said to have worked for a new film ‘The Accident’. While talking to reporters Ramkamal Mukherjee, the head of corporate communications at Pritish Nandy Communications says “Shiney finished shooting for ‘The Accident’ a while back. But we haven’t decided when to release it. That’s a marketing and business decision,”

Another film featuring Ahuja, which has been ready for release for more than two years, has also not come out. Shiney Ahuja is married and has a young daughter.

The sentencing of a movie star in India is rare. Sanjay Dutt was sent to prison in 2007 under India’s tough anti-terrorist laws for possessing a powerful firearm, while Salman Khan was found guilty in 2006 of shooting an endangered species of antelope.

Who is the biggest hero in INDIA




Bollywood Gossip: If the buzz is to be believed, the next Rajnikanth film, ‘Rana’, will not only have the superstar in three roles but will also have the towering Big B to add to the star power. That Rajnikanth‘s earlier year hits are unabashed remakes of Amitabh Bachchan is not a secret.

And the two superstars from the north and south of India are not coming together for the first time. From ‘Andha Kanoon’ to ‘Giraftar’, the two have shared on-screen chemistry. But the times were different. Rajnikanth was just another south Indian actor; oh yeah, he also lit cigarettes with bullets from his gun.

Today, Rajnikanth stands at the enviable position of having led India to a frenzy of sheer stardom, notching last year’s biggest grosser, ‘Endhiran’.

But when the two stars come together, it would also be interesting to chart their on-screen and off-screen personae, and how they have set their own niches – appealing to some, left impressed on others.

Here’s comparing the two legends. Read it, and pick your man.

Shahrukh Khan to liplock kiss to Kareena



Bollywood Gossip: Bollywood Superstar Shahrukh Khan might have carried the tag of being a romantic hero for decades but the king of romance had never lip-locked with any of his co-actress in his long tenure of acting career. He has maintained his no-kisser image for long time. But now, Shahrukh Khan has decided to shed his shy image and kiss his ladylove Kareena Kapoor (Bebo) in his upcoming Bollywood Movie ‘Ra. One’.

It is rumored that for a romantic track in ‘Ra. One’, Bebo and SRK will indulge in a deep smooch.

When contacted, an insider from the film says, “The buzz about them having smooched is very strong indeed. There have been so many queries on this kiss so far, but sorry we can’t divulge anything related to the film at all.”

However, a close friend of the superstar rubbishes the rumor, “No way!” says the source. “Shah Rukh’s never ever done it before. It’s a promise he’d made and he won’t break it for anything. Besides, he’s never had to resort to kissing-on-the-lips for his romantic image. He’s definitely not doing it now!” added the good friend.

However, the authenticity of the bollywood report will be vivid clear once the film hit the theatre this Diwali

Shirdi Sai in and as Nagarjuna




It is known news that recently a new project was announced and this is based on the life of Shirdi Sai Baba. The story is smooth till there but trouble has begun at few corners after it was revealed that the title role is going to be donned by none other than Nagarjuna.

It is heard that few long time devotees of Shirdi Sai have raised an objection. They said “Nagarjuna has married one person, left her and married again. He has been involved with IT raids. He drinks, smokes and is also known for his Casanova image. His linkups with few heroines have been another highlight.”

They also add ”He was seen as a devotee in ‘Annamayya’ ‘Bhakta Ramadasu’ that’s okay but we cannot see him as God. Given his image and history, we cannot accept this.” Well, few cine folks say that the contention of the Shirdi Sai devotees is genuine but then it remains to be seen how Nag and director K Raghavendra Rao will handle these objections.

Allari Naresh Attacking big heros in tollywood



It appears that Allari Naresh is one man who is gearing up to take on few heavyweights such as Chiranjeevi and Nandamuri Balakrishna. Well, this is not through a film clash or political thing. This is happening through his latest film ‘Seema Tapakaya’ as per sources.

Apparently, inside talk is that the film has got a fair share of satires on Chiru and Balayya. Incidentally, sources reveal that films like ‘Stalin’ ‘Simha’ have been taken as inspiration and dialogues along with parodies on these two super hit movies have been created in the film.

Usually, Allari Naresh films tend to have a satire or two but this time, the dosage seems to be strong. Let us see how much it will entertain the audience on a lighter note and how much it will hurt the mega and Nandamuri fans. The film is releasing on May 13th

Jr NTR Marriage Statements



Though it has been a while since the wedding of Junior NTR has taken place, the event is still the hot discussion among the film fraternity and those who managed to attend the occasion. As a result, here is a look at few facts and few statements meant to be facts but are not so.

For starters, it was hyped that the setting for the wedding cost a whopping Rs 18 crores. Well, that is false as sources reveal that the entire decoration took only Rs 1 crore. Similarly, it was revealed that the saree of Pranathi was Rs 50 lakhs but inside sources reveal that it was just Rs 5 lakhs and one can forget the zero.

On the bright side, it is confirmed by many that the food was good and care was taken in organizing the whole food arena. Also, no heroine came except Priyamani which is also another fact. So, just like the fabrication in figures done for films, it appears that even the real life event was filled with enough creativity.
