At first I answered the phone. The callers from both numbers say the same thing - 'Don't attend the event in New York.'," she said.<br /><br />She was expected to attend an Indo-American cultural event in New York Aug 25.<br /><br />"I don't scare easily. And I am certainly not scared. But I am curious and suspicious. Why would I be threatened against going to a cultural event in New York? I've to get to the bottom of this," she said.<br /><br />Minissha is in her own words, flummoxed.<br /><br />"If it was a political event or maybe a cultural event in a hostile country I'd understand. But why shouldn't I attend an innocuous dinner event in New York meant to bring together NRIs and Indian personalities? It makes no sense," she said.<br /><br />Minissha has passed on the two threatening numbers to her business managers. While the international one is impossible to call back on, the national one is far easier to locate.<br /><br />"The voice on it is distinctly Haryanvi and very menacing. 'Tu agle hafte American jaane ka soch rahi hai? Tu nahin jayegi,' it says. Arrey baba kyon nahin jaaongi???

The film has completed 10 years. It's so nice to meet all these people and celebrate with them," Aamir told reporters here late Wednesday night.<br /><br />"Teams of all the other films are also here. I thank them that such great talents have worked with our production house and made it what it is today," he added.<br /><br />A special screening of a film based on the making of "Lagaan" was also organised for the guests that included Ashutosh Gowariker, Imran Khan, Javed Akhtar, Gracy Singh and others.<br /><br />In 2002, "Lagaan" was nominated for the best foreign language film at the Oscars but it didn't win the award.<br /><br />Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who was the narrator in "Lagaan", also made an appearance.<br /><br />"I'm happy and proud that my name is associated with such a great actor, director and producer like Aamir Khan and with a film like 'Lagaan' that created waves even internationally," Amitabh said.<br /><br />The evening also witnessed the presence of Aamir's wife Kiran Rao, who was an assistant director on the sets of "Lagaan", and his ex-wife Reena Dutta.<br /><br />"I don't believe that it's been 10 years now. Today when we saw this screening, we realised that it has been so long. We are very thankful to Ashutosh and Aamir that they made such a great film and made us a part of it," Kiran said.<br /><br />"It's a very unique film and you can't make such films every day. History was written when this film was made," she added.<br /><br />It was reported at that time that Aamir and Kiran began dating during the shoot of "Lagaan" but the actor denied it.<br /><br />"I did not meet Kiran properly that time because she was a part of a 300-plus crew, so I was not really good friends with her during that time. I made friends with her later in 2003," the actor revealed.<br /><br />Aamir also ruled out the possibility of a sequel to "Lagaan". "We will not make a sequel of this film. That's for sure," he said.</div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033561967701927908.post-27657289298204330362011-06-16T23:00:00.000-07:002011-08-28T12:27:55.147-07:00Aamir Khan productions celebrate a decade of film-making<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAJ-W_kQyx2bz484BN6w3zCPtOz35XH0z6AiWRyKnlthuGYiBUwhGvOWdo6UlPNn4UHKPGEIkGRisr4olQiy1bnw9ZjaQnJkV2SX_dn3D_yapBNQ6Mz86mP1C5f5LC83EH0Wq_h0cqOiQW/s1600/1+Aamir-Khan-Blooywood-Film-Star.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="aamir khan" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAJ-W_kQyx2bz484BN6w3zCPtOz35XH0z6AiWRyKnlthuGYiBUwhGvOWdo6UlPNn4UHKPGEIkGRisr4olQiy1bnw9ZjaQnJkV2SX_dn3D_yapBNQ6Mz86mP1C5f5LC83EH0Wq_h0cqOiQW/s320/1+Aamir-Khan-Blooywood-Film-Star.jpg" width="207" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxDzUBnslcijM69X1bHIFaPqKRFCD8XT5vgaju1QIxkQSsD3TAUwRw3mV2gMfeom5dSsbRWBQoMZ6LDtJ0SliUaRtBrMwYVQj_Q0tV3xzKcLv0RVoOJ1ImAHwgNX2KNYnd1g-sibtONUln/s1600/aamir-khan1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Aamir Khan productions celebrate a decade of film-making" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxDzUBnslcijM69X1bHIFaPqKRFCD8XT5vgaju1QIxkQSsD3TAUwRw3mV2gMfeom5dSsbRWBQoMZ6LDtJ0SliUaRtBrMwYVQj_Q0tV3xzKcLv0RVoOJ1ImAHwgNX2KNYnd1g-sibtONUln/s320/aamir-khan1.jpg" width="253" /></a></div>Bollywood actor Aamir Khan has said he never aspired to be a producer but the strong script of 'Lagaan' made him resolve to plunge into the film-making arena.<br />He was addressing a success party last night to celebrate 'Lagaan', which completed ten years, and with it Aamir Khan productions also completing a decade into film production.<br /><br />Aamir said producing a movie was a tough job as he had seen his father and uncle making Hindi films and trying to come to terms with the medium. ''I never wanted to become a producer but with the passage of time the medium has fascinated me'', he told the cast and all others associated with the film and his company.<br /><br />A documentary 'Madness', on the making of Lagaan, was screened for the guests. Made by Satyajit Bhatkal, who handled production for Lagaan, it brought back memories of the movie for the cast and crew of the film.<br /><br />Lagaan had broken all rules of Indian cinema, it was made against a village background, where the hero wore a dhoti and the climax was a cricket match, all forbidden areas in Indian film making.<br /><br />An ambitious project written and directed by Ashutosh Gowariker and produced by Aamir Khan, it became the third Hindi-language film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film after Mother India (1957) and Salaam Bombay! (1988). Lagaan became a super hit, breaking all records. It also won critical acclaim.<br /><br />The function was about this joy and happiness that came after a series of difficulties and hurdles, which the Lagaan team overcame.<br /><br />Aamir Khan production with Lagaan began a memorable journey of producing good cinema. Under the AKP banner are also credited films like 'Tare Zameen Par', 'Dhobi Ghat', 'Peepli Live', 'Jane Tu Ya Jane Na' and the latest and yet to be released 'Delhi Belly'.<br /><br />Among the personalities that graced the occasion were Ashutosh Gowariker, who wrote and directed Lagaan, Javed Akhtar who wrote the songs, Udit Narayan wth son Aditya Narayan, Vaibhavi Merchant, Abbas Tyrewala and Amitabh Bachchan, who gave the voice over for Lagaan and all actors, who worked in an AKP film.</div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033561967701927908.post-10275262507329393802011-06-16T22:55:00.000-07:002011-08-28T12:27:55.147-07:00Ranbir Kapoor to auction his portrait to support girl child<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQKkJz1QOM6_Mxw8STpflD5bwH-arKEbPtkO07jbtRxl1uyooPEB-R2BSfV-AiSwIiFv0n3kcL2b4F3UkdNa090eGNuJOvWV2zp5iKExWIpDNfF6bfAFxq_FFoDTVpEKulCUmOMPmE3qRp/s1600/Ranbir-Kapoor-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ranbir Kapoor to auction his portrait to support girl child" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQKkJz1QOM6_Mxw8STpflD5bwH-arKEbPtkO07jbtRxl1uyooPEB-R2BSfV-AiSwIiFv0n3kcL2b4F3UkdNa090eGNuJOvWV2zp5iKExWIpDNfF6bfAFxq_FFoDTVpEKulCUmOMPmE3qRp/s320/Ranbir-Kapoor-2.jpg" width="297" /></a></div>Actor Ranbir Kapoor is set to do his bit for the welfare of girl child in the country.

She likes her independence. She likes being in her own world. She is very happy like that. Even I don't like talking about my personal life a lot. So it was my decision to keep my personal life and marriage away from the limelight and Manjiri agreed with me too," Rajeev told IANS.<br /><br />"I knew that there will be a lot of spotlight on my marriage and there were a lot of requests etc for the pictures. That's why I got married in Jodhpur and kept it a personal affair," added the actor who exchanged marital vows at Khimsar fort in Jodhpur.<br /><br />The 35-year-old, who garnered fame on the small screen with the show "Kahiin Toh Hoga" and later hosted "Sach Ka Saamna", had an Arya Samaj wedding.<br /><br />When asked whether anything has changed in his life post-marriage, Rajeev informed: "Nothing major."<br /><br />"Marriage hasn't changed anything in me, it hasn't changed anything except the way I live my life. Basically, my home front…the state of my house has changed, the ownership has changed, the rules have changed. There is nothing similar in my house to what it used to be four months back, the decor, the colours, the curtains everything has changed and not in my control anywhere. Other than this everything is the same," added Rajeev laughingly.<br /><br />"But I am still the same guy, I still operate in the same manner. If I have to meet a girl for a cup of coffee, I still meet her because I know where to exactly draw the line. Manjiri is not the kind who would call me if I'm having a cup of coffee with a girl. She is a very secure person, which gives me so much independence and a lot more reason to love her even more," he said.<br /><br />The actor, who made a successful transition from small to big screen with "Aamir" and "Shaitan", is looking forward to Neerav Ghosh's "Soundtrack" set for an August release, and Tanuja Chandra's "Raakh", which will be released at the end of the year.</div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033561967701927908.post-41023233675182164262011-06-16T19:55:00.000-07:002011-08-28T12:27:55.148-07:00Shah Rukh Khan to perform on IIFA stage after seven years<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip4u7OnHDW4IHJtAUWJzYQGsYWmxFbP_i5GlC9rMS9qUFPMZK-eV5Sjq-5TVgfLm6sf09zRiaZ17O__AR9X_qHpsQGG8I49UxoLaKbqQvUT0gKBgbM5S_UsNswlxmb3POznDD7bI-hUd5R/s1600/shah_rukh_khan.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Shah Rukh Khan to perform on IIFA stage after seven years" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip4u7OnHDW4IHJtAUWJzYQGsYWmxFbP_i5GlC9rMS9qUFPMZK-eV5Sjq-5TVgfLm6sf09zRiaZ17O__AR9X_qHpsQGG8I49UxoLaKbqQvUT0gKBgbM5S_UsNswlxmb3POznDD7bI-hUd5R/s320/shah_rukh_khan.jpg" width="223" /></a></div>Bollywood fans in Toronto just got luckier - superstar Shah Rukh Khan is not just attending the forthcoming International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Weekend, but he will also enthrall the audience with a befitting finale performance at the awards ceremony June 25.<br />The actor has attended two editions of the IIFA Weekend in the past - in Singapore in 2004, and Amsterdam in 2005. He had last performed in the Singapore show.<br /><br />"Shah Rukh Khan will be our finale performer for this year. He is returning to perform for us after seven years, and we are very excited," Sabbas Joseph, director, Wizcraft International Entertainment, the IIFA organiser, announced at a press conference here Thursday.<br /><br />Shah Rukh has also been nominated in the best actor category for his performance as Rizwan Khan, a patient of Asperger's syndrome, in Karan Johar's "My Name Is Khan". IIFA organisers are expecting a huge turnout of fans with Shah Rukh's presence.<br /><br />"He is a phenomenal performer and a huge star. He hasn't been to Canada in a long time... so the kind of expectations that fans and people have of Shah Rukh is quite something!" Joseph told IANS.<br /><br />Other performers at the star-studded event include Priyanka Chopra, Bipasha Basu, Kangana Ranaut, Saif Ali Khan and the famous Deol family - veteran star Dharmendra and his sons Sunny and Bobby.<br /><br />Salman Khan is also expected to be at the three-day IIFA Weekend as his debut co-production "Chillar Party" is set to kick off the IIFA Film Festival. It would only be interesting to see a face-off between the once friends-turned-foe stars.<br /><br />But whether their star power will make up for megastar Amitabh Bachchan's absence or not is yet to be seen at the weekend, set to be held June 23-25.</div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033561967701927908.post-65095333294560506792011-06-15T08:24:00.000-07:002011-08-28T12:27:55.148-07:00Mallika Sherawat on her attempts to cross over to Hollywood<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOuPK6hNL93-lmWwHu_mf4LYWMJyETz75p_YNNQvaMZffDZ_DmMJueIkl8xh_FY4LCVORU85IrRV7NhPx0veJxqwc3WnV0BAVPDMjvR51Abh_wMqhc4kFSD4L7gH-79UHAAgMs-B1aL2le/s1600/a+Mallika_Sherawat_14.sized_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Mallika Sherawat on her attempts to cross over to Hollywood" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOuPK6hNL93-lmWwHu_mf4LYWMJyETz75p_YNNQvaMZffDZ_DmMJueIkl8xh_FY4LCVORU85IrRV7NhPx0veJxqwc3WnV0BAVPDMjvR51Abh_wMqhc4kFSD4L7gH-79UHAAgMs-B1aL2le/s320/a+Mallika_Sherawat_14.sized_.jpg" width="242" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Ds7c8eGtI5A16_Z0ubgswh7-O1ABF2-QJ4J-LC4_g0vZws9nFBy51hik0sNe9Jb_nriF8sOgQLmNufvgbLRpczCWPcxTn9n2F-vxd7sndA8dko2et-5Bhb-blFBcYxA5kOyKR8iZNTu9/s1600/hot-looks.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="mallikka" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Ds7c8eGtI5A16_Z0ubgswh7-O1ABF2-QJ4J-LC4_g0vZws9nFBy51hik0sNe9Jb_nriF8sOgQLmNufvgbLRpczCWPcxTn9n2F-vxd7sndA8dko2et-5Bhb-blFBcYxA5kOyKR8iZNTu9/s320/hot-looks.jpg" width="233" /></a></div>Indian actress Mallika Sherawat has spoken out about rumours of her attempts to cross over to Hollywood from Bollywood, and she insists she has never tried to do so.<br />Sherawat, who is in Dubai to inaugurate the Chemannur International Jewellers store, said she is proud to be part of Bollywood, but she is also looking forward to starring in movies outside her homeland.<br /><br />“I never attempted to cross over to the West.

I will do any film in any language, like Malayalam, if I get a great part in it,” she added.</div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033561967701927908.post-40352257331537660402011-06-15T08:11:00.000-07:002011-08-28T12:27:55.148-07:00Ekta Kapoor inspires Minissha Lamba<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir455Xrf97D5A9fxc9Dyc2z72mUU_b5zcX8xUMKALzTwF090lCsoPPUmaFOL2JyQNeJLUQEb2N3POpVkLZIImv04y6hI14AN5mZoBlakXTHOfTjnsvpCF2W2zRpBvq3axmp7MQHrrpI5hS/s1600/minissha4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Ekta Kapoor inspires Minissha Lamba" border="0" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir455Xrf97D5A9fxc9Dyc2z72mUU_b5zcX8xUMKALzTwF090lCsoPPUmaFOL2JyQNeJLUQEb2N3POpVkLZIImv04y6hI14AN5mZoBlakXTHOfTjnsvpCF2W2zRpBvq3axmp7MQHrrpI5hS/s320/minissha4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3TH8-1b58mB7D-cFcRtfICWDXWqIYXWdmDi0WYP2M64s450JxcTh0J7gdqdTOE5XdnraN82kIg934KTikhVzltEgCyUG00pHYBd45x4qDhaQ5awCRvX-eib64Q4u06umu2ukh7EPQhYwh/s1600/minissha-lamba-hot-photos.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="manisha" border="0" height="203" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3TH8-1b58mB7D-cFcRtfICWDXWqIYXWdmDi0WYP2M64s450JxcTh0J7gdqdTOE5XdnraN82kIg934KTikhVzltEgCyUG00pHYBd45x4qDhaQ5awCRvX-eib64Q4u06umu2ukh7EPQhYwh/s320/minissha-lamba-hot-photos.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Actress Minissha Lamba, who plays a reality TV show producer in "Bheja Fry 2", says she took inspiration from Ekta Kapoor to prepare for her character and dedicates it to the TV tsarina.<br />I was inspired by Ekta, I thought of her when I was conceptualising this character because everybody knows the success story but the hard work that one puts in is unknown," Minissha told reporters here Tuesday.<br /><br />"Sometimes it happens that you are just a few steps away from success but you fail. You come with a value system but end up compromising. It is like you are being tested all the time. I really took inspiration from that phase. So I wanted to dedicate this character to a woman who revolutionised the television industry, in fact, she has made the television industry in India," she added.<br /><br />The actress was here to promote "Bheja Fry 2" which releases Friday and was accompanied by her co-star Vinay Pathak.<br /><br />Although she would be a reality show producer in the film, the actress said she wouldn't mind being a part of one. "I wouldn't mind being a part of a reality show but it should be appealing," she said.<span id="goog_2144241002"></span><span id="goog_2144241003"></span></div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033561967701927908.post-53553112728102158482011-06-15T07:36:00.000-07:002011-08-28T12:27:55.148-07:00John Abraham to join Sajid's 'Housefull 2' team in London later<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCr8184_W7BfdDQ_WUo7Jnu5O3rqmJX8jFSe4HQMBtB5ioqm5HZDoTVEo6ZmxqEUSiv0fI09NwSI2U1zUqvpe9gNtPxK4c3Qku5BzBJVQ80FVzl7Dz53gIbIwJRSoXASvcoy7KAooZYycN/s1600/john-abraham1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="John Abraham to join Sajid's 'Housefull 2' team in London later" border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCr8184_W7BfdDQ_WUo7Jnu5O3rqmJX8jFSe4HQMBtB5ioqm5HZDoTVEo6ZmxqEUSiv0fI09NwSI2U1zUqvpe9gNtPxK4c3Qku5BzBJVQ80FVzl7Dz53gIbIwJRSoXASvcoy7KAooZYycN/s320/john-abraham1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_1HrAtTXOYdVYfUCeqX9c7Mck66f2gNdYeZYJi_LE7iz-gfEf7OfBOQRyBCzQ8-J-qvOKc6vOTZtRif2f8iV24xjD2OcyUQf25w-VbU1HSFAeIfj0hx7-qpzYtX3cUEUM1SeY_PPersE0/s1600/johnabrahamaskmeany.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="jonh abraham" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_1HrAtTXOYdVYfUCeqX9c7Mck66f2gNdYeZYJi_LE7iz-gfEf7OfBOQRyBCzQ8-J-qvOKc6vOTZtRif2f8iV24xjD2OcyUQf25w-VbU1HSFAeIfj0hx7-qpzYtX3cUEUM1SeY_PPersE0/s320/johnabrahamaskmeany.jpg" width="245" /></a></div>The "Housefull 2" team left for London last week but without John Abraham. He will join the gang a week later.<br />Apparently, producer Sajid Nadiadwala had earlier planned to hire a private jet to take the whole 'Housefull 2' crew to England from Mumbai. But now, with various members opting for scattered travel, he has no option but to cancel the plan.<br /><br />Nadiadwala, who is in the middle of implementing a dare-devilish co-ordinating stunt, hardly has time to pause to talk about his problems.<br /><br />"Kya karen? These are all busy stars. We can't have them over in London and then have them sitting idle waiting for actors with whom they are to do combination shots. And losing precious shooting dates in London means losing out on permission to shoot in places like Leicester Square, where getting permission again is impossible. It's a very tricky situation. And it's the biggest challenge I've faced in my career as a producer," Nadiadwala says.<br /><br />Getting the stars' dates synchronized is an ordeal for him.<br /><br />"We are trying to accommodate the actors in different groups in the shooting schedule so that no one has to sit idle. Let's see how we do it," he says.</div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4033561967701927908.post-37050795013787111652011-06-15T07:22:00.000-07:002011-08-28T12:27:55.148-07:00Esha Deol on her growing proximity to Deols<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijF8bOo9CIxCyZ-aP97djrcCMPyX_dzeqFOFmqNsCMcyyd2g5PrhgLTxe4VkdtE0mm0jid4BxjJT4sM8jh5JfSdi9h3vLOLteF5YGHG7mzhkQUCQTg1AGiIXsEReXiFuIfUVATVHHyx1jI/s1600/esha_deol_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Esha Deol on her growing proximity to Deols" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijF8bOo9CIxCyZ-aP97djrcCMPyX_dzeqFOFmqNsCMcyyd2g5PrhgLTxe4VkdtE0mm0jid4BxjJT4sM8jh5JfSdi9h3vLOLteF5YGHG7mzhkQUCQTg1AGiIXsEReXiFuIfUVATVHHyx1jI/s320/esha_deol_1.jpg" width="214" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinmqpEq0GurKjyBcAJIbptS91S-lptFo0371ocOp7jKqmUpDEhqjChempK0lCXr1lyl9p3P8_FGrFl0NM80AmgdPdhztrGV2Q8DP__wCf55bxzzvgKDcnZnWV8597nEUpSLr0vTUN5TV4i/s1600/esha-deol.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="esha deol" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinmqpEq0GurKjyBcAJIbptS91S-lptFo0371ocOp7jKqmUpDEhqjChempK0lCXr1lyl9p3P8_FGrFl0NM80AmgdPdhztrGV2Q8DP__wCf55bxzzvgKDcnZnWV8597nEUpSLr0vTUN5TV4i/s320/esha-deol.jpg" width="270" /></a></div>The Deols and Hema Malini's daughters are coming together. Hema's daughters, Esha and Ahana, are in fact very close to their stepbrothers Sunny and Bobby Deol.<br />this fact is kept hidden away from public view is because "she" wouldn't like it. Yes, that's how the first Mrs Dharmendra, Prakash, is addressed.<br /><br />Sunny and Bobby keep their affections for their half-sisters discreetly away from the public eye but it looks like Dharmendra's nephew Abhay and Esha share a great bond.<br /><br />Esha in fact gets along like a house on fire with Abhay. The two spend a lot of time together, bonding unconsciously, building a bridge between Dharmendra's two families.<br /><br />Says a source, "Abhay and Esha are constantly in touch. She has in fact taken charge of his fitness regime. Abhay is very lazy about going to the gym. Esha drags him to the gym and makes him work out. She wants him to build on his muscles while Abhay thinks the body is not quite the acting tool that he would like to use. They're constantly arguing over his laidback attitude to physical fitness."<br /><br />When asked, Esha was candid about her closeness to Abhay.<br /><br />"We've always been very close from our school days. I guess because now we're grown up and known names, people want to know about us."<br /><br />Esha admits she has been helping Abhay with his gym regime.<br /><br />"I do take him for wor-outs. It's always fun doing things with Abhay. We share a lovely bond. Like any brother and sister. We stay two minutes away from one another. So as and when we want to chill together we meet up. But we keep in touch constantly."</div>NITAIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01689561182458270144noreply@blogger.com0
