Shah Rukh Khan reveals he’ll teach AbRam Khan only till class 7, the reason is damn funny!

The father-son duo Shah Rukh Khan and AbRam Khan are favourite of social media buffs. We have seen how they bond with each other. Be it at cricket stadium, any social gathering or at the airport, King Khan and his little munchkin are well known for their naughty acts and fans simply love them watching together. Like father, even AbRam has a huge list of fan followers. All of us eagerly keep waiting to catch a glimpse of the little one but the much protective family have made sure that the shutterbugs get least chance to capture AbRam.

We all know how concern is Shah Rukh Khan about his three children - Aryan, Suhana and AbRam. There were times when media asked King Khan on when Aryan will make his Bollywood debut and we have heard his reply on the same. Recently SRK was at Hyderabad to receive the honorary doctorate from Maulana Azad National Urdu University. In an interview there he once again opened up about his son AbRam and his other two kids as well. He spoke on how he manages to spend time with all the three despite of having hectic schedule.

Shah Rukh Khan was quoted saying, "I look after my three kids the same way. I have given them a bath, taken them to the toilet and even put them to sleep. I have also dropped them at school every morning. As a matter of fact, AbRam will be going to school in four months and I’m looking forward to driving him to school. I want my kids to have their father always with them because I lost my parents early. Gauri is always there, she’s an amazing mother, but since I am out shooting so much, I want to be there whenever I can," reports Pop Diaries.

About the little star in the family Shah Rukh Khan was further quoted saying, "AbRam keeps me completely shielded from the vagaries of work or I could just be thinking about films. But now that I have him, he takes my mind off things. He’s an amazing gift and I plan to teach him till class seven." Now you might be wondering what could be reason SRK is not planning to teach AbRam after his class seven. Shah Rukh Khan says, "After his seventh standard, I can’t teach him because then I will need to study a lot again."

On the work front, the King of Romance will soon be seen in ‘Raees’ in which Mahira Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui will also share screen space with him. He is also working with Imtiaz Ali for ‘The Ring’ in which Anushka Sharma is paired opposite him. Keep watching this space for all Bollywood updates.

Shahid Kapoor shares first image of daughter Misha

Actor Shahid Kapoor, who welcomed his daughter Misha with wife Mira Rajput earlier this year, on Saturday shared the first photograph of Misha via social media.
Though Shahid didn't show the face of his daughter, one can see Misha's legs and she can be seen wearing pink shoes in the photograph. Shahid shared the image on Instagram.

"Mi-shoe," Shahid wrote alongside the image with a heart emoji.

Misha was born on August 26 earlier this year. Both Shahid and Mira will be seen together on filmmaker Karan Johar's popular talk show "Koffee With Karan". The episode will be aired on Sunday.

On the film front, Shahid is currently shooting for filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "Padmavati" alongside Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh. He will also be seen in "Rangoon", which has been directed by Vishal Bhardwaj.

Anushka Sharma - Virat Kohli meet the parents

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli, whose relationship has literally been through a rollercoaster ride through the year, are finally catching up on lost time. The couple is relishing a yoga retreat in Uttarakhand with snow-capped mountains all around them. They headed to Dehradun last weekend. Anushka, who has been sporting a Rudraksha mala lately, has been spending time feeding peacocks. Her cricketer beau has also been sporting a similar accessory.

Given that the two are spending New Year's Eve with the parents from both sides, buzz is that marriage could be one of the topics of discussion at their dinner table although there has been no confirmation of the same. They've moved from Dehradun over the last 48 hours to Tehri, where her parents were waiting to join them. Let's hope there's some cheer around the corner then!

Dangal beats all records but fails to surpass Sultan

​Aamir Khan's Dangal has managed to beat Dhoom 3's opening week collection after raking in a whopping Rs 197.53 crore in its first week. However, it still lags behind as Salman Khan's Sultan stands tall in the first position for earning Rs 229.16 crore. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted the opening week collection of Dangal saying, “#Dangal Fri 29.78 cr, Sat 34.82 cr, Sun 42.41 cr, Mon 25.69 cr, Tue 23.09 cr, Wed 21.46 cr, Thu 20.29 cr. Total: Rs 197.53 cr. India biz.” As you can see, the film's collections on weekdays haven't slowed down much. In fact, surprisingly Dangal continued to rake in a very impressive collection at the box office. As we checked the box office figures of all time highest opening week earners, we found out that Dangal's collection has surpassed a lot of big movies.

With Rs 197.53 crore, Aamir's wrestling biopic has beaten Dhoom 3, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, PK and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo to become the second highest opening week earner. While the film has done phenomenal business, it still hasn't been able to beat Salman's Sultan as his film proudly holds on to first position with Rs 229.16 crore. When we check the film's stand in the lifetime collection chart of films that released in 2016, Dangal stands in the second position. Although once again, Sultan's Rs 300 crore mark is the highest, we wonder if in the coming weeks, the wrestling biopic will be able to beat Sultan…

As you can see, the collection of Dangal hasn't faltered much. People are still going to the theatres to watch this film. In fact, luckily as there are no big releases in the first week of January, Aamir still has time to earn more and surpass Salman's film. Trade gurus have speculated that Dangal will earn Rs 350 crore in the domestic market. Which means chances of the film beating Sultan is pretty high. As you can see, in overseas box office, Dangal has already entered the 100 crore club. Starring Sakshi Tanwar, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Sanya Malhotra and Aparshakti Khurrana, the film has not just raked in good money but also great reviews from critics and audience.

The second week of Dangal at the box office will commence today. Do you think the numbers will witness a dip or will it continue to earn more money? Tell us in the comments section below.

WOW! Katrina Kaif finally speaks about the reason for breaking up with Ranbir Kapoor!

Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif’s breakup created quite a stir all over the film industry. After spending six long years together in a steady, strong relationship; the two parted ways for a reason we aren’t too sure of. Although the two havent been very honest about their feelings on social media, Katrina Kaif for the first time has done a very smart deed by letting the cat out of the bag in a very subtle manner.

Yes! Katrina while attending the episode of Koffee With Karan gave us some really interesting facts which could be hinting towards her breakup with Ranbir Kapoor. When asked by Karan Johar what she doesn’t like among people, the actress quickly responded saying she hates dishonest people and being lied to. In another question she was asked if she’s been cheated on in a relationship and the answer was a yes. That definitely was enough proof to us. Ranbir Kapoor had anyway clarified the matter to us by saying that he has never checked a girls phone but had his phone checked at a certain point instead!

IS AAMIR KHAN'S DANGAL AN INSULT TO COACH COMMUNITY ??

Aamir Khan's Dangal may be a box-office superhit and inspiring many, but there is always an another side of the coin. The movie has left many coaches in the country feeling hurt.

The film, based on the life and struggles of wrestling coach Mahavir Phogat and his daughters Geeta and Babita, potrays India's wrestling coach at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in extremely poor light.

Even, the real life wrestling coach, PR Sondhi on whom the character of on-screen coach PR Kadam is based, is not so happy with the negative portrayal in the film.

Coaches do play a major role in a sports person's success and sometimes even are more happy at their trainees success than the sport person itself.

OMG! Mohenjo Daro actress Pooja Hegde refuses to work with Sooraj Pancholi because of THIS reason!

Popular South Indian film actress Pooja Hegde is only one film old in Bollywood and she’s already throwing tantrums. The former beauty pageant winner was lucky enough to be signed opposite Hrithik Roshan but that clearly wasn’t enough for the actress. The film fared below average at the box office and Pooja is still taking time to come to terms with her miserable failure. As a result of this, she turned down a role opposite Sooraj Pancholi in Allah Ke Banday.

SpotBoye recently revealed to us that Pooja doesn’t believe Sooraj is a big star and she doesn’t want to work with someone whose name isnt that good in the industry. That could be a little too much for a newbie we think! On the other hand, Pooja is all set to work in the South Indian film industry once again. A film unit also revealed to us that she will be working with Allu Arjun in a leading film called DJ. This will be her third film after Oka Laila Kosam and Mukunda.

For people who are unaware of Pooja’s career, Pooja started working in Bollywood in 2016 but she has been a part of the industry in 2010 and also participated in Miss India Universe pageant.

Kangana Ranaut would like to get hitched in 2017

Kangana Ranaut who didn't have a movie release at the box office this year is looking forward to 2017 for more than one reason. Firstly, she will have two big ticket films due for release, namely 'Rangoon' and 'Simran' and secondly, by her own admission the actress would like to get hitched in 2017.

When the 'Queen' actress was asked about her grand plans for the New Year at a talk show recently, she let in with a beaming smile, "I will get married." The statement has piqued our interest and curiosity. The actress has had a rather tumultuous year on the personal front and is really looking forward to a controversy free New Year. When probed who she intended to get married to, Kangana brushed off the question with a sweet smile. This lady can be such a tease!

OMG! Shahid Kapoor Stalked Akshay Kumar’s Wife Twinkle at a Swimming Pool

Ever imagined taking panga with Khiladi Kumar of Bollywood – Akshay? But it seems Shahid Kapoor is in full mood to do so. Do you know that Shahid Kapoor once stalked Akki’s wife Twinkle Khanna?

However, not recently, but when Shahid was young! The actor opened about the same on Karan Johar’s controversial show Koffee With Karan.

The Kaminey actor shares the couch with wife Mira Rajput on the Star World show. On the episode, Shahid reminisces that as a teenager, he used to have a big crush on Twinkle. So much that he and a friend would stalk her at a hotel’s swimming pool during the shoot of Itihaas (1997). His mother, actress Neelima Azeem, was also part of the film featuring Ajay Devgn and Raj Babbar. The two boys would wait for hours to catch a glimpse of Twinkle.

SilverSnake Michelle – Her Snakeness

SilverSnake Michelle begins their Her Snakeness with Drops of Time. We have taken a look at the single before, but the re-mastered version that leads off Her Snakeness feels that much more punchy and in-your-face.

SilverSnake Michelle begins their Her Snakeness with Drops of Time. We have taken a look at the single before, but the re-mastered version that leads off Her Snakeness feels that much more punchy and in-your-face.

Drops of Time sets up the stage for the twists and turns listeners will experience through the entirety of Her Snakeness. The Deep Green has a chunky bass, a passionate set of vocals that simultaneously bring forth hints of 1980s goth, 1990s darkwave, and a more current, contemporary sort of rock to the mix. Diallele brings in just a hint of new age-style keys before dropping out, allowing SilverSnake Michelle to create a tremendously effecting composition in the vein of Tori Amos and Amy Lee.

Backwards (Silversnake, Answer This…) shatters to conception that late-album tracks are less memorable than those at the beginning registers of the album. The darker and slinkier sound brought here showcases a different side to SilverSnake Michelle, while adding further variety to the narrative that had already been crafted up to that point of the album.

Requiem (Slán Leis Na Nathair Airgid) is our favorite track on Her Snakeness. There is a progressive metal sound that plays at the background, eliciting comparisons to Blind Guardian. The taut instrumentation that is de rigeur here will keep listeners on the edges of their seats until the release concludes. The vocals are out of this world; hints of operatic brilliance are scattered among the rock demeanor here. The production of this album allows there to be a confident and sure sound that permeates from the opening strains of the disc until the concluding notes of Madness. Her Snakeness is a solid, engrossing album.

Top Tracks: The Deep Green, Backwards (Silversnake, Answer This…), Requiem (Slán Leis Na Nathair Airgid)

Ram Charan Not Satisfied with 5 Heroines?

Ram Charan has moved on from Dhruva which is yet to reach breakeven. Even as he focusing on his maiden production venture which happens to be Chiranjeevi's 150th film Khaidi No. 150, the Mega Power Star is also taking time out to concentrate on his up next film with director Sukumar.
As the script is locked, the makers are presently hunting for film's leading lady. Apparently, director Sukumar is very particular about the heroine opposite Charan and is looking out for the girl for the past two months.
So far Rashi Khanna, Samantha, Sai Pallavi, Anupama Parameswaran and Keerthy Suresh have been approached. While few were engaged in thorough discussions, others were even auditioned for the role.
Latest we hear is that two more heroines are said to undergo screen test this week. Amala Paul who earlier romanced Charan in Naayak will be one among the two heroines who will be tested for the role opposite Charan. Ram Charan and Sukumar are keen to finalise a heroine within this week. The film is going to have only one heroine.
Meanwhile, unlike Charan's previous films it's not going to be an action-packed script. Sources close to the director divulged that this will be the best script in Sukumar's career so far.
Let's wait and see who will be the lucky heroine to bag the plum offer.

Oops! SALMAN KHAN WOULD NEVER WANT YOU SEE THESE EMBARRASSING PICTURES

If there is one Khan whose fan following is forever on a surge, it is Salman Khan. No, he does not say or do the right thing always. And it is not that Salman always chooses roles that make him actor of the year either. However, more often than not, it is the complete package that Salman comes across that sets him as the most loved star.

In his career span, Salman has done many memorable roles that epitomize him as ‘the hero’. Right from being the best boyfriend material to taking care of the woman the right way, Salman is like the prince straight out of fairytales.

However, that does not mean that man has not got any embarrassing moments. From getting clicked with his drinking buddies to sporting weirdest of outfits, you can trust Salman for everything funny.

Now today, we leave you with pictures Salman would not want to appear in Google search.

THE EVOLUTION OF PAYMENT PLATFORMS

From the invention of the ATM, to the development of mobile money, payment systems around the world have rapidly evolved over the past 40 years. Payment platforms and systems have gone from merely being structures that support the financial market to being social infrastructures that support all economic activities. Driven by technology, payment systems, which have long been viewed as “background” activities, have now become central to the day-to-day activities of the entire economy. The disruption caused by technological advances means that banking models have had to be reshaped to suit the new environment. Current generations are no longer satisfied with “cookie-cutter banking”. In the age of fast internet connections and powerful smartphones, banks have to restructure their models to ensure that they provide service that is quick, accessible, flexible, personalised and relevant.

The Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) held in Nairobi in July, brought together various stakeholders from the financial services industry and technology space, entrepreneurs and innovators, in a single forum. Launched by President Obama in 2009, each year the Global Entrepreneurship Summit brings together entrepreneurs and investors to showcase innovative projects, exchange new ideas, and help spur economic opportunity. This year, the GES agenda focused on generating new investments for entrepreneurs, with a particular focus on women and youth. Citi is proud to have been a sponsor the Global Entrepreneurship Summit and be an official sponsor of the president’s initiative to advance entrepreneurship around the world.

The selection of Nairobi as host city for the GES underscores how Africa – notably Kenya – has become a centre for innovation and entrepreneurship. Kenya is a world leader in mobile money systems such as M-Pesa, and a driver of innovation through technology research and incubation labs like “iHub”. The Global Entrepreneurship Summit provided a forum for discussions surrounding the payments landscape, ranging from mobile money, the game-changer in emerging markets, to cryptocurrencies. Digital currencies were also discussed in depth, with topics ranging from uptake and adoption to the anticipated impact on existing payment platforms. With the continued convergence of finance and technology, it is expected that new financial services will be made possible by riding on not only mobile money but also on cloud-based wallets.

Adopting technology may be viewed as an uphill task by some, but banks must leverage these new technologies to expand their reach to all corners of the economy and remain relevant. Originally seen as a threat to the banking industry, technology has become a key driver for financial inclusion. It is through partnerships with technology partners that banks have and will continue to support not only those in the formal banking system but beyond. These critical partnerships have already enabled traditional banks to serve a broader set of people, from the formally employed, to entrepreneurs and even farmers far removed from the formal banking system.

Recognizing the importance of technology in payment systems, Citi is committed to identifying and supporting technology entrepreneurs through initiatives such as the Citi Mobile Challenge. Through a test and learn approach, and collaborating with top talent globally, Citi will be able to deliver what our existing and future customers need from their bank in the digital age.

KANGANA CHANGED CLOTHES BEHIND ROCKS FOR 'RANGOON'

National Award-winning actress Kangana Ranaut, who will be seen in filmmaker Vishal Bhardwajs Rangoon, says she used to change her costumes behind rocks due to lack of facilities while shooting for the periodic drama film.

During her appearance on actress Neha Dhupia's show "#NoFilterNeha", Kangana talked about some of the weird situation that she had to go through while shooting for her films. She said that while shooting for "Queen", she used to change costumes at cafes in Europe. Something similar happened while she was shooting for "Rangoon" in Arunachal Pradesh.

"That happens all the time. When you're thrown out of your comfort zone, initially its intimidating. It doesn't really matter if you're a star or not a star," Kangana said. "It just depends on the kind of project that you choose. For example, for ‘Rangoon', we were taken to these remote valleys of Arunachal Pradesh. There were literally no villages, nothing, not even rest rooms."

"I was p**ing behind rocks, changing behind rocks. My own people would just cover me. Everyone was, so was Shahid (Kapoor). There was nothing, so what do you do?" she added.

TIGER SHROFF PAYS TRIBUTE TO MJ IN 'MUNNA MICHAEL'

Tiger Shroff, who is currently shooting for director Sabbir Khans Munna Michael, has paid tribute to the late King of Pop Michael Jackson by replicating his moves in the film. And the first look of the movie shows the actor is trying to give his best shot to emulate MJ.

Tiger is seen wearing a hat and striking a pose similar to the signature Michael Jackson pose. Three massive sets reflecting Mumbai's nightlife were created at a studio here for a special song, which will feature over 400 dancers and will be choreographed by Ganesh Acharya, read a statement. The special song, which will be incorporating moves from some of Hollywood's finest background artistes, will open the film.

"Michael Jackson is the greatest and this entire film is dedicated to him. It's a new journey and I hope he's watching," Tiger said in a statement. Director Sabbir said: "The song was recorded in Mumbai and sent to Los Angeles, where a team of American choreographers created dance videos, which our Bollywood team and Tiger have recreated here." "We're keeping all the quintessential elements of Hindi cinema -- heroism, music, dance and action -- intact while trying to raise the bar".

Tiger will be imitating some of MJ's most iconic dance moves, including the `toe-stand', `crotch grab', `moonwalk', `feet shuffle', `MJ spin', `anti-gravity lean', `sideslide', 'robot' and `jacket throwback'. Producer Viki Rajani said: "As we all know, Tiger is one of the best dancers in Bollywood and this movie will distance him for the others. He moves like magic and in 'Munna Michael', people are going to see some unbelievable moves from him. With this movie we are looking to leave a benchmark for dancing in Bollywood."

Backed by Eros International and NextGen Films, "Munna Michael", which also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and newcomer Nidhhi Agerwal, will release on July 7, 2017.

ANYTHING ON INTERNET WON'T BE ON '#NOFILTERNEHA' : NEHA DHUPIA

There have been celebrity chat shows galore. But actress Neha Dhupia, who is set to host audio talk show #NoFilterNeha on music streaming service Saavn, says what sets apart her show will be her guests sharing insights in an unfiltered light.

Neha is also co-producing the show with an episode featuring witty filmmaker Karan Johar. The show, which will be aired once a week on every Tuesday, will feature celebrities ranging from Bollywood faces, sportstars, musicians and authors. Yuvraj Singh, Vishal Dadlani and Chetan Bhagat are some of the names who will be seen as guests on the show.

Neha says her guests were uninhibited about answering most questions."Usually when people do interviews... I have seen a lot of celebrities say that 'Oh no, sorry, we can't answer next question', but all the people who came on this show were so bright, intelligent and witty, they knew how to work around the question, they turned around everything," Neha told us.

The "Phas Gaye Re Obama" actress said the discussion with the celebrities would not be about their personal lives or professional lives in particular. "We did not question anyone on their personal lives because it's not what the show is. We didn't discuss their professional lives. We just discussed what no one has ever heard about these people and you will hear them in that unfiltered light.

"That is what is different about this show. Anything that is there on net is not going to be there on the show," the "MTV Roadies X4" judge said. On the movie front, Neha will next be seen in "Moh Maya Money", also starring actor Ranvir Shorey. It will release on November 11.

Pradeep Sarkar-directed "Dabba Gul" is said to be based on the "Dabbawalas" of Mumbai and an MBA student, who wants to learn their way of business for his internship.

AN OSCAR CAN OPEN UP EVERY CHOICE FOR AN ACTOR : IRRFAN

Acclaimed actor Irrfan Khan, who has made inroads into Hollywood, has won awards galore, but he says an Oscar is one trophy that can change everything for an artiste.

In an interview to writer Raja Sen for the October Issue of Architectural Digest India, Irrfan opened up about his Oscar fantasy while discussing an area of his Oshiwara house where he has stacked his awards.  Asked where he will keep the Oscar when he gets it, Irrfan said: "So many awards mean so little, but that...that is an award that would change everything; it can open up every choice for an actor."

"If it were ever to come, it would come with its own place. It would find its own place," added the actor, who features in Hollywood director Ron Howard's forthcoming film "Inferno", featuring Tom Hanks. One of the finest actors in present-day Hindi cinema, Irrfan loves his home to have a water body and mirrors.

Confessing to a mirror fetish, he said: "I always peer into them even if I'm walking by in a hurry." His present house, which also has a swing which Irrfan enjoys, fulfils his wish of having "an area surrounded by mirrors, where I can see myself from every angle".

PROSECUTOR : WOMEN FELL TO HER DEATH TRYING TO FLEE TINDER DATE

A New Zealand tourist was so afraid of an Australian man she met through the dating app Tinder that she fell 14 floors to her death while trying to escape from his apartment balcony, a prosecutor told a court on Monday. Gable Tostee, 30, pleaded not guilty in the Queensland state Supreme Court in Brisbane to the murder of 26-year-old Warriena Wright in Gold Coast city in the early hours of Aug. 8, 2014, the AP reports. He faces a potential life sentence if convicted. Tostee and the Lower Hutt woman met for the first time in the tourist center of Surfers Paradise on the night she died. Prosecutor Glen Cash told the jury that Tostee did not throw Wright to her death, but intimidated and threatened her to an extent that she felt the only way to escape was to climb down from his balcony.

The court heard an audio recording made on Tostee's phone that captured an altercation between the pair as well as the fall. Cash alleged that Tostee became angry after Wright threw ornamental rocks at him and hit him with a telescope. He also said that Tostee choked and restrained her before locking her out of his apartment on the balcony. "You're lucky I haven't chucked you off my balcony," Tostee is heard to say. "If you try to pull anything, I'll knock you out." The jury was told a neighbor heard Wright crying, "No, no, no, please let me go home," before witnessing her falling from the balcony about 15 seconds later. But defense lawyer Saul Holt said Wright had become increasingly erratic and aggressive toward Tostee after a night of drinking and intimacy.

SUNNY LEONE HAS ALL THE TALENT TO BECOME MAINSTREAM HEROINE : RAJEEV CHAUDHURI

Beiiman Love helmer Rajeev Chaudhury thinks actress Sunny Leone has enough talent to be a mainstream heroine.

"Why not Sunny Leone? I think she has all the talent to become a mainstream heroine. She has the Indian look. I watched her films like 'Jism 2' and 'Ragini MMS'. I was so convinced that she definitely deserves much better than what she is doing," he said at the music launch of the film when asked why he chose the "Jism 2" actress for the film.

"I prepared the script for Sunny. Sunny liked the script and we tried to give the film a different look. Sunny is different in this film. She is not the same Sunny what you have been seeing till now. She performed very well in all her films and in this film too. But in this film, she has done something out of the box. She has done a substantial job which is going to become a new track for her. That's what I feel," he added.

"This is Sunny's best performance till date. She has acted tremendously as good as Priyanka Chopra or Deepika Padukone. She has done justice to the role. She is fantastic. You'll watch her soon," the director said. The erotic thriller is directed and produced by Rajeev Chaudhari. It stars Sunny Leone and Rajniesh Duggall and will mark the acting debut of Sunny's husband Daniel Weber.

ARJUN KAPOOR INSPIRED BY ANIL'S OFF-SCREEN PERSONA

Actor Arjun Kapoor looks up to his uncle Anil Kapoor. He says more than his on screen charisma, he is inspired by the veteran actor for the way he leads his life off the camera.

"So, more than inspiration - I've seen the journey, so for me, if I achieve whatever I do it will be out of the fact that I have learnt from watching him for a long period of time and it's more the off camera stuff that is more inspirational. On camera, of course, what he's done is amazing," Arjun said in a statement. The son of producer Boney Kapoor made his debut with "Ishaqzaade" in 2012, and went on to do films like "Gunday", "2 States", "Tevar", and "Ki & Ka".

Arjun says that growing up around Anil was a "very big paradox". "You know, subconsciously, I have grown up around having him next to me while I have watched him on screen. It is a very big paradox to live in, where I'm eating rajma chawal and looking at him and then I am watching the big screen," he said. The actor opened about his equation with actor-producer Anil during an episode of "Vogue BFFs". The episode will air on Saturday on Colors Infinity.

SONU SOOD'S WAX STATUE UNVEILED IN MUMBAI

Bollywood actor Sonu Soods latex wax statue has been unveiled at the Sunils Celebrity Wax Museum here.

The wax statue of the actor, who has featured in hit films like "Dabangg", "Happy New Year" and "Jodhaa Akbar", was uncovered by Minister of State for Home (Urban) Deepak Kesarkar. Sunil Kandalloor, the sculptor and Managing Director of the Sunil's Celebrity Wax Museum, made Sonu's wax statue in the duration of three months.

"Sonu Sood is one of the most experienced and self-made actor who acts in Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil and Telugu movies," Kandalloor said in a statement. In 2010, Kandalloor opened an International Wax Museum in Lonavla, near Pune, which houses 100 wax models of national and international personalities. His museum has become a tourist attraction. Some of his works include wax models of celebrities like Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

2 WOMEN CLAIM DONALD TRUMP FORCED HIMSELF ON THEM

Two women who say Donald Trump groped and kissed them without their permission have gone public after watching him deny such actions during last Sunday's presidential debate. "I wanted to punch the screen," 74-year-old Jessica Leeds tells the New York Times, which broke the story. She says she was sitting next to Trump, who she had never met, in the first-class cabin of an airplane in the 1980s when he moved the armrest and started groping her, touching her breasts and trying to get under her skirt. Leeds says she moved to the back of the plane to escape what she describes as "assault." She told friends and family about the incident but didn't report it to flight staff or authorities because back then "we were taught it was our fault."

In 2005, Rachel Crooks was a 22-year-old secretary at a real estate investment and development company inside Trump Tower. One day, she bumped into Trump outside an elevator and introduced herself. Crooks says Trump refused to release her after they shook hands and started kissing her cheeks. Then, she says, he kissed her on the mouth. She says she felt like he violated her. She immediately told her sister and boyfriend, but she felt like she couldn't go any further. "I remember her saying, 'I can't do anything to this guy, because he's Donald Trump,'" her boyfriend at the time recalls. Speaking to the Times, Trump denied the claims, threatened to sue the paper, and called the reporter a "disgusting human being."

HAVE YOU SPOTTED 'A113' IN MOVIES? HERE'S WHY

If you're an astute viewer of shows and movies like The Simpsons, The Hunger Games, or anything Pixar has put out, you may have noticed a common theme: the sequence "A113" inserted on license plates, signs, products, and other places. "But what does it mean," AV Club wonders. "Is it a code? An incantation? Is it the key to unlocking the killing potential of a thousand unknowing super soldiers embedded throughout the country?" None of the above. According to Vulture, A113 is the number of a classroom at the California Institute of the Arts, "where a bunch of big-name animators started their careers," including John Lasseter, Tim Burton, and Brad Bird.

As Business Insider notes, "by including the number they are giving a subtle shout-out to their alma mater." Lasseter, chief creative officer at Pixar, confirmed the CalArts origin in a 2009 video, adding, "A lot of the students during my time that went to CalArts, as they created films, short films, and feature films, they've kind of hidden A113 in the movies. It's one of those little things you have to look for." Pixar is known for inserting those types of things, called Easter eggs, in its films. Some other Pixar Easter eggs, according to Mental Floss, include the yellow Pizza Planet delivery truck, the Luxo ball, and characters from Pixar films appearing in other Pixar movies.

KAREENA HAD REJECTED SAIF'S FIRST PROPOSAL

They are known as Bollywoods royal couple, but actress Kareena Kapoor Khan says she rejected Saif Ali Khans proposal initially due to her career.

Kareena and Saif tied the knot in 2012 after a five-year relationship. The actress opened up about her personal life when she became part of TV show "Vogue BFFs". When the show's host Kamal Sidhu asked Kareena how Saif proposed to her, she said that he proposed twice because she turned him down the first time.

"He actually proposed to me a couple of months after we met only in Paris. In fact, his father (Indian cricketing legend Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi aka Tiger Pataudi) proposed to his mother (veteran actress Sharmila Tagore) also in Paris when she was shooting a film 'An Evening in Paris'. And we were on a holiday in Paris as well and I was just like 'Yeah, of course'," Kareena said in a statement. The actress, who is expecting her first baby with Saif, said that the first proposal happened when they were at the Ritz Hotel in Paris.

"I think it was at the bar and then I think I said no and then there was one more time, in the same trip, and then we were at the Notre Dame Church. I was just like let's not talk about it. Because I was into my career and I was like 'let me think about it' and obviously two days later I was like 'Yeah'," she added.

So, did Saif get down on one knee for the proposal? "No, that's just the image that he has, but he's far from that," Kareena said.

NOT PLAYING PAKISTANI JOURNALIST IN 'NOOR' : SONAKSHI SINHA

Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha says she will not be playing a Pakistani journalist in the film Noor, which is based on Pakistani author Saba Imtiazs novel Karachi, Youre Killing Me.

At the trailer launch of her upcoming film "Force 2", the actress was asked about her role in "Noor". She said: "All I can say is that I am not playing a Pakistani journalist in the film. The film is based on a book, which is written by a Pakistani author. The story has been adapted into a Mumbai backdrop." The book is a bittersweet tale of a single young woman, Noor, who is attached to her profession as a journalist-writer. Directed by debutant Sunhil Sippy, the movie revolves around Noor's misadventures and love life as she navigates her way through Mumbai.

The movie, also starring Purab Kohli, Shibani Dandekar and Kanan Gill, is scheduled to hit the big screens on April 7 next year. Besides that, Sonakshi is continuing her "action queen" avatar in her next film "Force 2" after "Akira". Asked if she can be tagged as action queen, Sonakshi said: "You must. I am very fond of action films, which is why even in the past, I've been part of a lot of action movies. I enjoy watching this genre. Every time I watched my heroes doing action, I thought of doing this cool stuff.

"I got a chance in 'Akira'. I couldn't be more thankful that it has been carried forward to 'Force 2'. I will work hard to retain my tag of 'action queen'." Directed by Abhinay Deo, "Force 2" features John Abraham and is releasing on November 18.
