Month: October 2014

Time for celebrations as pretty women Sneha Wagh and Shweta Tiwari celebrate their birthday today (4 October).

Let us first pass on our good wishes to the beauties.

Shares Sneha, “I am not a party person so spend my birthday happily with my family around. It is the best time to spend time with them. But yes, I do make it a point to treat my co actors for lunch. I am not even excited about my birthday as I feel it’s just another day, but I do love all the good wishes that come from around the world for me on this day. That surely makes me feel special.”

Two of the most eagerly awaited Bollywood films released this ‘longgggg’ weekend and attracted a lot of attention, eyeballs and reams of media spotlight. The stakes were high as the releases were marked by a lot of additional spotlight on other side elements such as: Hrithik’s first film after his separation; Shahid’s second film with Vishal Bhardwaj; Hrithik’s second film with Katrina Kaif and Shahid’s first with Shraddha Kapoor; the faceoff between Fox Star Studios and UTV-Disney; Hrithik vs Shahid as dancing stars; amongst others.

No one in Bollywood makes more money dancing than SRK. The superstar is a hit at weddings where shaking his famous leg helps him earn a few millions in a span of few minutes. His world tours too are blockbuster hits with NRIs and foreigners queuing up to see the star in action. For a star who makes millions grooving, it may come as a surprise that the man was not a great dancer when he started out in films. In fact, by SRK’s own admission, he had trouble learning to perfect dips (a dance step) during the filming of King Uncle.

Here we have the TAM ratings for this week.

In the channel front, the list remains constant with Star Plus, Colors and Zee TV enjoying their position in the top of the charts with 593 ((Million TVTs), 431((Million TVTs) and 427 (Million TVTs) respectively.

The numbers for the other shows are listed below.

It was on this day 50 years ago that Javed Akhtar had stepped foot in Mumbai from Gwalior to pursue his creative dreams.

The now acclaimed lyricist and writer recently participated in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Swachch Bharat Abhiyan’ on Gandhi Jayanti Thursday at the Mumbai Central station to sweep the platforms.

Speaking of the experience, Javed said: “It is always a pleasure to be part of any campaign for a better nation. And Narendra Modiji‘s ‘Swachch Bharat Abhiyan’ was definitely a wonderful idea. I happily supported it.”

Actor Charlie Sheen has been sued for sexual assault, battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress by his dental technician Margarita Palestino.
The technician has claimed that the “Anger Management” star jumped out of the dental chair, pulled his nitrous oxide mask off and grabbed her breast.

The lawsuit stems from an alleged incident during an appointment Sep 25. The complaint was filed Friday at the LA County Superior Court by Palestino’s attorneys, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

The box-office threw no major surprises this week. Bang Bang running approximately on 4,500 screens was always slated to rule the roost. The movie opened to a bumper response aided superbly by the five day holiday weekend. In just a span of two days, the movie grossed 50 crore ( 27.54 crore on it’s opening day and 24.08 crore yesterday) making it one of the top five openers of 2014.

On the other hand, Haider chugged at a turtle’s pace collecting about 11.50 crore.
