Deepika Padukone made an appearnce in Farhan Akhtar's Tv show Oye Its Friday on NDTV Imagine. She is there as a promo for her film Chandni Chowk to China and shows some of the stunts she did for the film.
In Farhan Akhtar's new show Oye ! Its Friday ! his guest Karan Johar ( who appeared on the show along with Shamita Shetty) apparently passed a remark saying that Farhan is pretty. This next episode seems very entertaining as Farhan Akhtar thought Karan Johar was talking about Shamita Shetty who was also on the show ( the show episode will air on Friday on NDTV Imagine). But Karan clarified he was calling Farhan pretty. At first Farhan didn't know how to react. But then he quickly caught hold of himself - he's not acknowledged now as a terrific actor for nothing - and then the rest of the show became an impromptu 'Dostana' with Farhan and Karan doing what John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan did in the film," a source close to the show told IANS. To add to the 'gay' atmosphere, Kantaben (Sulabha Arya), who trembled with homophobia all through "Kal Ho Naa Ho", was brought in as a phone-in friend. "And they asked her what she thought of 'Dostana'. Sulabha said she loved it. She raved about the film for a while. Only later did Karan and Farhan realise the lady was talking about the old 'Dostana' with Amitabh Bachchan and Shatrughan Sinha," the source said. It does sound interesting for sure.
Several Bollywood celebs including Shahrukh Khan wont be celebrating Eid this year. Apparently Katrina Kaif (her dad in muslim), Irrfan Khan, Zayed Khan, Shabana Azmi, Farhan Akhtar, Javed Akhtar and many others including Shahrukh khan will wear black bands on Eid tomorrow in mourning of the Mumbai Terror blasts. Shah Rukh Khan in a media statement said, "I am happy to witness the new movement that's gripping India to bring about change. I am all for younger politicians who can bring about this change, my support lies with them. There's nothing Islamic about terrorism. I am Muslim, I read the Quran, but nowhere in the holy text does it say you can get jannat from jihaad. For peace in our nation, there's need to be peace in our hearts." I have been reading blogs Amitabh Bachchan, Abhay Deol and Aamir Khan all lambasting the terrorist attack. Its heartening to know that our Bollywood celebs have a mind and a heart.
