Salman Khan (Sallu) to steal Ranbir's girl?

Ranbir Kapoor and Salman Khan have history. The RK boy began dating Khan's girl Katrina Kaif two years ago.

The romance began on the sets of their film Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani (and continued during Raajneeti). Will history repeat itself? It is learnt that Salman now wants to romance RK's girl Nargis Fakhri.

Towards the end of the year, Salman Khan will get into the super-hero garb for his younger brother Sohail Khan's film titled Sher Khan (and not Tarzan) as reported. Sohail has worked on the script of this film for a long time and it is wildly exciting, say sources. Even as the girls — Katrina Kaif, Sonakshi Sinha and others start lining up for the role of Sher Khan's leading lady, trade sources indicate that Salman may team up with the Rockstar girl Nargis Fakhri.

Says our source, "Sohail either wants a fresh face or he wants his brother to pair up with Nargis."' We hear the producers of Rockstar, who are also advising Nargis on her career, will be happy if she bags a film with Bhai.

Ranbir & I share a hot chemistry: Ankita

Ankita Shorey, though the name sounds unfamiliar right now, the day isn't far away when the diva will become a household name.

Ankita, the Pantaloons Femina Miss India International 2011, has plans set to enter Bollywood. And not just that! The young lady is confident that once in the film industry, she'll become a superstar. "I am born to act," she says further adding, "My friends call me a drama queen. I am a born star and my entry in Bollywood will give the industry its next superstar."

Ankita is a huge Shah Rukh Khan fan and says, "One of my biggest dreams is to work with SRK." However, the PYT, who has worked with Ranbir Kapoor in a mobile service provider commercial, says that her perfect Bollywood debut will be opposite the Kapoor lad. "I have worked with Ranbir for an ad and we share a sizzling chemistry. We bonded well and because we belong to the same generation there was a great comfort level. It was a comedy act where I play a very possessive girl friend," revealed she.

The Miss India International further said, "My perfect acting debut will be opposite Ranbir. Our jodi will take Bollywood by storm for sure."

Any filmmaker listening?

Media-celebrities go hand in hand: Katrina

From her break-up with Salman Khan to her link-up with Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif's personal life is constantly under the scanner.

The British-born actress says the unrelenting attention does affect her sometimes but she has learnt to cope with the pressures."We are human beings and sometimes it does affect us especially when so much is being said and written that doesn't make sense. But one learns and I have also learnt to cope with it," Katrina told in an interview over the phone from Mumbai.

"I have learnt that media and celebrities go hand in hand and now I don't feel the need to clarify my stance and I am not bothered. Audiences have also become mature and they also understand what is right and what is wrong," added the 26-year-old.

The actress has no films scheduled for immediate release, but will be seen in a new LUX soap ad to promote its new range - Lux Fresh Splash.

This year, her first release will be in June with Zoya Akhtar's " Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara", also starring Hrithik Roshan, Abhay Deol, Farhan Akhtar and Kalki Koechlin. After that she will be seen in "Mere Brother Ki Dulhan".

Katrina was introduced into the Hindi film industry with "Boom" in 2003, but the first hit came only four years later with " Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya". Her career zoomed with "Namastey London", in which she teamed up with Akshay Kumar, released in the same year.

Some of of her big box office hits are "Partner", "Welcome" and "Singh Is Kinng". Her item number "Sheila Ki Jawani" from Farah Khan's "Tees Maar Khan" has got perhaps the maximum publicity, but Katrina has also forayed into meaningful cinema with " New York" and "Rajneeti".

Asked whether she is a director's actor, Katrina said: "Every actor is a director's actor. It's the director who helps the actor in bringing the character alive on screen and then there is the script to support. It is part and parcel of the profession."

As her career skyrockets, expectations have also become higher and Katrina admits to some nervousness.

"If you lose that nervousness or anticipation that means you have reached a saturation point which is the worst thing for any actor. For me, it is important that I live up to the expectations of my fans and I don't let them down."

So does Katrina fear failure?

"Fear is something that drives you to do good work and it is important for a person to maintain a positive attitude and keep on doing good work," she said.

With films, endorsements, performances and media appearances crowding her to-do-list, the actress admits she sometimes finds it difficult to cope with the hectic work life.

"Sometimes it becomes difficult to stay calm, cool; and with a busy schedule I do get tired, but it's part of our job. I keep doing things that help me to relax. I do things that rejuvenate me, things that give me extra help," she said.

Ranbir wants Nargis

Nargis is tied to Ashtavinayak with a three-film deal. So even though he is pushing Sajid Nadiadwala to sign her for his next, it's not happening... 

 Although Ranbir Kapoor must be promoting his 'good friend' Nargis Fakhri and called producer Sajid Nadiadwala to cast her in his next Heer Ranjha, little does he know that the young lass is under a 3-film deal with Ashtavinayak.

Ashtavinayak, which is launching Nargis opposite Ranbir Kapoor in Imtiaz Ali's Rockstar, has signed an exclusive contract with her. Nadiadwala who is keen to cast Nargis, has also had a word with Ashtavinayak.

A source said, "Nargis has already generated a lot of buzz in the industry. One reason might be her mixed-race looks, the other could be her link-up with Ranbir Kapoor.

After Ranbir's recommendation, Nadiadwala also had a word with Ashtavinayak, but one doesn't know if Ashtavinayak will bend and mend ways for Nargis to work outside their banner till the deal is over.

Heer Ranjha director Sabir Khan was also blown away when he saw Nargis's pictures and finds her suitable for the female lead in his movie."

The source continues, "Ashtavinyak had realised the young girl's potential the very minute they signed her onboard.

Being launched in Imtiaz Ali's flick, Nargis has already been given instructions not to have photo shoots or be out in the media.

A lot of producers and directors are chasing the young lass to star in their film. On the other hand Ranbir is also promoting the girl and recommending her to filmmakers.

But the three-film deal has tied the talent to Ashtavinayak."

While Ashtavinayak refused to comment, Sajid Nadiadwala did not reply to our calls or message.

Kat to change her spelling?

Katrina Kaif has been advised to change the spelling of her name... 

We don't know if Katrina Kaif is really affected by the failure of 'Tees Maar Khan' and the alleged-break off with Ranbir Kapoor. But yes, numerologists seem to be concerned.

Numerologist Bhavikk Sangghvi says she is no longer the IPL brand ambassador, is losing out on endorsement deals, her last film 'Tees Maar Khan' didn't fare well, and her love life isn't very smooth... All this is happening for a reason: the spelling of her name!

Sangghvi says, "I would suggest her to spell her name as Katrinna Kaif or Katreena Kaif for it to vibrate on an auspicious number, so her reign would continue without much interruption. Also wearing a pearl and an emerald on her smallest finger would help her attain mental peace and take her decisions much more calmly."

Did Nargis come between Katrina and Ranbir?

Fakhri stakes claim on Ranbir Kapoor. Get the lowdown on the RK-Katrina split right here! KYA HUA?

Ranbir and Katrina finally broke up last week.

KAISE? The couple's relationship had a rocky run from the very beginning. Their arguments constantly revolved around insecurity and loyalty issues.

Kat felt RK wasn't giving her enough time, while he felt extremely stifled towards the end. After her split from Salman, Kat wanted to give her relation with Ranbir everything. There was even a time when she contemplated going public about their pyaar.

But then, things took turn for the worse. Enter his Rockstar co-star Nargis Fakhri, a Kingfisher calendar girl, who along with her looks had the right attitude to attract RK's attention.

A source spills the beans on how things went down, "It wasn't a surprise for anyone.

Ranbir: I have bigger things on my mind right now, baby! It's time to Kat my losses and move ahead. Lo, maine apna haath chhuda liya. Yay!

Katrina: There's a song that comes to mind here... don't know what it means though. Sounds apt. Here goes... Humse ka bhool hui jo yeh sazaa humka mili

They had been arguing and fighting for over a month. When the new gal got in the frame, it only got worse. Kat was totally against him spending time with her. There were times when he was with Fakhri and wouldn't pick up Katrina's calls. He said they were meeting to see the film's rushes, but later she realised he was just making excuses to spend time with her."

What seemed like mere infatuation at the start, turned serious when Nargis got a chance to visit the Kapoor household in Delhi.

The source adds, "When Ranbir took her to his sister Riddhima's place it was a big step. It upset Kat that he was introducing her to his family when they were still going around. She felt like he was two-timing her with Nargis."

DEEPIKA FACTOR: It is believed that Ranbir's ex-girlfriend Deepika Padukone's interest in acting with him was also a bone of contention for Kat. She was extremely upset with the news that Deepika might be doing Ayan Mukherji's next with RK.

"Even though RK and Deepika have got over each other, Kat wasn't pleased with the idea that they would be working together in the same film. She even expressed her apprehensions to Ayan who told her he hadn't finalised anyone yet."

IS IT FINAL? Close friends are of the opinion that Ranbir-Kat are done for good. Ranbir is clearly besotted by Fakhri and has been raving about her to all his friends.

When asked if their love story was scripted to benefit their film, the source quipped, "Not at all. They are truly in love. Spend time with them and you would know."

A question of marriage, not Nargis

Katrina denies it but sources allege her in insistence on a ring is the reason behind her spat with Ranbir 

Some say that it's his alleged coziness to his Rockstar co-star Nargis that is causing issues between Kat and him.

But a rather reliable source also tells us that things are getting sour between Kat and him because the 27-year-old is not willing to marry Katrina who allegedly is insisting on having a rock on her finger.

A source tells us, "It was only incidental that Ranbir's fondness for Nargis increased recently. However, what has really distanced him from Katrina is her demand that they get married, by March 2012, if not December 2011. She clearly told him that they should tie the knot in a year's time."

Katrina on her end claims these rumours are tommyrot. "These rumours are embarrassing, ugly, a million miles from the truth, beyond fiction.

The so-called people close to me who are saying these things actually have no proximity to me Ranbir is a friend, but there is nothing beyond. So there is no question of my breaking up with him or asking for marriage."

Well, wedding bells were chiming in Kat's head some time ago, when in an interview she told Mumbai Mirror, on 25 Jan 2010 to be specific, that she wanted to get hitched in 2012.

However, the Rajneeti actor, who has been dating Kat for nearly two years, ever since they worked together on Rajkumar Santoshi's Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahaani, seems to be taken aback by her demands.

The source explains Ranbir's bewilderment, saying, "Well, he didn't know what to do. He explained to Katrina that marrying her in a year's time wouldn't be possible since he is too young. Ranbir doesn't want to pin himself down in life."

Think of it, Katrina was more demanding than Deepika in her relationship with Ranbir. While Deepika asked for commitment, Katrina asked for shaadi, claims our source.

Reconciliation between the two lovers is not ruled out, says our source. "It would be more apt to say that they have had a big fight at the moment, rather than to say that they have ended their relationship.

Katrina would love to get back with Ranbir, who also likes her very much. But he is certainly not thinking in terms of marriage with her at this point of time."

It may be recalled that Mumbai Mirror (November 3, 2009) was the first to tell you the real reason why Ranbir split with Deepika; Ranbir was not discreet about his less-than-innocent encounters with other women then. Maybe he knows himself too well to commit to something as serious as marriage...

Nargis or Kat for Ranbir?

Ranbir Kapoor and his co-star Nargis Fakhri were watching a screening of Black Swan when we spotted them outside the theatre after the film.

First, we caught Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif dining at a suburban five star hotel. Now we have spotted him with his new-found friend and Rockstar co-star Nargis Fakhri.

Ranbir might be discreet about his public outings with 'good friend' Katrina but it seems he has no qualms in going public with Nargis.

On Monday night Ranbir went out to watch Oscar winning film Black Swan at a Juhu multiplex with Nargis. He was also accompanied by buddy Ayan Mukerji.

The two, it seems, were having a cosy evening and a good time watching the film.

But after the film, as soon as they learnt about shutterbugs waiting outside the theatre, they immediately dispersed. 

There have been reports about the growing proximity between Ranbir and Nargis ever since they started shooting for Imtiaz Ali's Rockstar.

A source said, "Ranbir is known to charm girls and it is not surprising that he has charmed his Anglo Indian co-star, Nargis too.

Although he is very close to Katrina Kaif that doesn't stop the Kapoor boy from making new friends and socialising with them."

Katrina Kaif, Ranbir Kapoor’s marriage approved by Kapoor family

Mumbai: Katrina Kaif who never reveals anything about her personal life, is trying hard this days to camouflage her and Ranbir’s affair. But Kat, never belittle the power of journos, they can even dig out news from the graves. Reports leak the relationship of Katrina-Ranbir getting stronger day by day. Few days back, they were spotted kissing each other publicly. And now, sources reveal, they are planning to get married. Ranbir wants to settle down as early as possible, and Kat is the girl whom he is determined to marry.

 

Ranbir has talked with his father Rishi Kapoor and mother Neetu Singh, about his choice, and they have given their consent. Katrina met Ranbir’s grandmother Krishna Raj Kapoor, and she also liked Kat and gave consent.

Hurt by the stories of Kat and Ranbir’s closeness, Salman Khan, Kat’s ex-boy friend, is openly criticising Ranbir in front of media. Salman even phoned Rishi Kapoor, and asked him to tell Ranbir to control his emotions for Katrina. He even skipped a film because Ranbir was also a part of the film. On the other hand, Deepika, Ranbir’s ex-girl friend stated in an interview, that Kat was the reason behind their break up. During the filming of “Ajab prem ki ghazab kahani”, Kat and Ranbir cozied, which threatened Dippy’s relation with Ranbir, and eventually Ranbir-Deepika splitted.

It seems Bollywood is not too happy with these lovebirds’ growing proximity.

Nargis Fakhri too hot to handle by Bollywood

Ranbir Kapoor in sexy women lingerie

Bollywood is funny enough now, ends up with Ranbir Kapoor in a sexy women lingerie. In his latest release Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani is full of such incidents. You know that Ranbir dared to drop the towel and bare his butt in his debut film .

Deepika is searching for her ultimate man

Deepika has been burning headlines continuously for some or other reasons. Be it her debut release 'OM SHANTI OM' opposite SRK, or the number of men in her life. The tall & slender beauty who once upon a time dated model Nihar Pandya in her modeling days, then the newest lad of kapoor clan Ranbir kapoor before the movie release, then with cricketers Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh after the smashing hit at box-offce is now again seen with Ranbir.

According to the latest news, it seems that Ranbir Kapoor is back with his ex-girlfriend Deepika. According to sources they have been repeatedly spotted together in public. Recently the duo was seen together at Filmfare event and coincidentally they also acted in one of the cola commercials.

It is still tough to guess the ultimate man for Deepika .
