Salman gets angry and upset

The heartthrob of millions, the hot and stunning Bollywood star Salman Khan is found angry and upset these days. The reason behind this is cheap imitations of Being Human T-shirts are doing the rounds in the Mumbai market even before the official merchandise hits retail stores.

The angry star in his statement said, “I’m aware of it. But I think those guys (who are buying and selling the fakes) should get aware that we are not out in the market yet. I want people not to buy them (the fakes) since the money (collected through genuine Being Human stuff) is supposed to go for a good cause.”

By making imitations and selling the T-shirts, people are minting money for themselves, do you think it’s worth it. I don’t think so. With the thanda response from his two recent releases Main Aur Mrs Khanna and London Dreams, Salman Khan will be seen next in Veer. The film which is directed by Anil Sharma. The star cast includes Salman Khan, Mithun Chakraborty, Sohail Khan and Jackie Shroff.

Salman grow up now

Salman Khan and Sharukh Khan have always been on loggerheads, and therefore they try to avoid each other but their fate is such that they anytime could bump in each other. This recently happened when they boarded the same flight to Mumbai from London unknowingly of each other.salman and srk

According to an eye witness when Sharukh saw Salman he was stunned, then without any expression he went to his seat and sat down. Their seats were at a good distance but Salman started talking so loudly that Sharukh could hear that. He behaved like a naughty child and kept himself busy in disturbing all. His behaviour was highly unacceptable.

Going back to their feud history they had their first fight on the sets of ‘Chalte Chalte’. Their most infamous feuds did happen at Amrita Arora’s wedding and Ramesh Taurani’s wedding anniversary.

All we expect from 40 year old Salman to grow up now.

Salman scared of romance

The hero who was loved by the audiences for his romantic flick ‘Maine Pyar Kiya‘ now says that he is practically afraid to undertake romantic roles. Salman Khan is these days fearing that the Indian audience wants to see him only in action thrillers or comic roles!salman khan

The reason Salman has developed such fears is the recent hit of his flick ‘Wanted‘ as well the flop of ‘Main Aurr Mrs Khanna’. He had expected ‘Main Aurr Mrs Khanna’ to do much better than ‘Wanted’ but the box office figures shocked him. He told DNA, “People have loved him for the edgy and entertaining films that he has done so far. But when it comes to family dramas, his audience doesn’t seem to have liked him that much.” He further adds that he thinks his fans just want to see him as a dashing man.

We just hope that Salman understands that the flop of ‘Main Aurr Mrs Khanna’ was not his fault but the script and direction were responsible for it.

Salman promotes ‘London Dreams’

Although her last flick ‘Main Aurr Mrs Khanna‘ could not stand the box office but Salman Khan hasn’t lost hope. He’s is geared up to celebrate the expected success of ‘London Dreams’.londan dream

In the movie he is in role of a musician from Punjab who’s got the talent but not the opportunity. His co-star Ajay Devgn plays role of his friend who’s got the means but not as much talent. Speaking about his role and the film, Salman says, “My name is Manu in the film. He’s obnoxious, crude, vulgar, and a flirt. I don’t know if I can relate to somebody like that…He’s all heart. And the film’s shaped up well…London Dreams has high romance, high energy. I would call it a musical Sholay.”

When asked about his chemistry with Ajay, ha said, “We’ve known each other a very long time. He won’t bitch. He’s a no bullshit kinda person. He keeps to himself. But he’s always playing pranks. He’s a funny guy.”

London Dreams has released on 30th October.

Salman working hard

Salman Khan is working hard for his films and this has been proven by the fact that he learnt Hanuman Chalisa for his upcoming flick ‘London Dreams‘. The film is by Vipul Shah and Salman plays the role of a rock band singer.salman khan

What made Salman work so hard is the success of ‘Wanted’ as well the debacle of ‘Main Aurr Mrs Khanna’. As far as the song is concerned it is a composition where Salman performs live in front of a huge audience. However censors raised objection to recitation of Hanuman Chalisa during a rock concert in the film’s promos, but now things have been sorted out.

When Vipul Shah was asked why rock song like ‘Barso yaaron’ has the Hanuman Chalisa in it, he explained, “The song is filmed on Salman who is a simple boy from Punjab who is facing hardships, which is why he calls out to Lord Hanuman who is the ‘sankat mochan’ or ‘The One who helps in removing all difficulties or sufferings’.”

Salman’s towel auctioned

Bollywood has now made its presence felt at e-bay too. In the recent news bollywood actor Salman Khan gave his towel for auction in the show ‘Tere Mere Beach Mein’ and was auctioned at the last price of Rs. 1,50,000. The show is being hosted by Farah Khan.

Regarding such auctions Deepa Thomas, senior manager (Pop Culture) at eBay, told IANS,”People have started buying such merchandise nowadays. And there are various reasons to it – some buy them for the resale value of an item, some go for it because they are a fan of the celebrity or some just want to give for charity.”

In the show, the celebrities have to give their personal things for auction. Salman and his mother were the first guest on the show. According to a source, “The auction started from Rs 2,000. The bidding ended on Sunday and it was unbelievable to see that it was sold at Rs. 1,50,000.”

Thanda response to Main Aurr Mrs Khanna

Though he was basking in the success of Wanted these days, Salman’s other flick, Main aurr Mrs. Khanna that released on October 16 has received a thanda response on BO.

One theory doing the rounds in the industry is that Salman Khan’s flick crashed at the box office due to clash with Akshay Kumar’s ‘Blue’ and Ajay Devgan’s ‘All the Best’. If not for ‘Blue’ and ‘All the Best’, Salman Khan’s magic would have ensured at least average opening for the flick.

In fact, trades sources say that Salman Khan starrer ‘Main Aurr Mrs. Khanna’ could pick up though it managed only ten to fifteen percent of collection at the box office initially.

With London Dreams releasing later this month it might prove to be a make or break movie for Salman Khan’s superstar status.

Akshay Kumar vs Salman Khan this Diwali weekend

Last week, Karan Johar’s Ranbir Kapoor starrer Wake Up Sid and Do Knot Disturb couldn’t capitalize much on box-office. Sanjay Gupta’s Acid Factory has tapered out with under 15% collections over the weekend.

This week leads into Diwali, which happens to be typically the biggest box office weekend of India ahead of the other high profile
holiday-weekends of the year.

In terms of box office, this weekend Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar will stand against each other.

Salman Khan’s home production ‘Mr. and Mrs. Khanna’ costarring Kareena Kapoor, Sohail Khan and Preity Zinta will come up against ‘Blue’, the Akshay Kumar led release, which is also supported by Lara Dutta, Katrina Kaif, Sanjay Dutt, and a special appearance by Australian star Kylie Minogue.

Blue is the more expensive of the two while Mr. aur Mrs. Khanna has an advantage of genre and a star billed recently successful.As of Wednesday advance booking reports showed a close call between Blue and All the Best, and Mr. aur Mrs. Khanna trailing the two.

In particular, MAMK’s initial will test how much boost Salman Khan has gotten from public post Wanted. As both Akshay Kumar’s Kambakht Ishq and Wanted have done business of around 50 crores in India. Neither KI nor Wanted managed to be universally successful grosser but given one (KI) has been dubbed below expectation, the other (Wanted) above
expectation, so this week’s results will help set the case of future expectation and market prices for future films of both the stars.

Salman protects Kareena Kapoor

He is dashing and extremely good looking actor but so far we’ve only heard horror stories of Salman’s misbehavior with people around. He is infamous for his blunt speech and rash actions.

But Kareena Kapoor has a different story to tell.

The incident happened on the sets of Salman Kareena’s forthcoming film Main Aurr Mrs. Khanna. The film is a Salman Khan home production and that enhance his responsibility which he certainly carried on his shoulders well. Kareena narrates herself, “Salman has always been very protective. He has been there for me whenever I needed him. That’s partly to do with the fact that my sister Karisma is very close friends with Salman and also his favourite co-star.”

Every time Kareena shoots with Salman she is all assured and feels safe. Just how caring a co-star this Khan can be was proven to Kareena recent when they were shooting a romantic song on the Phi Phi Beach in Thailand.This was the same location where Danny Boyle had shot The Beach with Leonardo Di Caprio.

The beach, as anyone who’s been there, is no sandy but pebbled.

And Kareena had to go bare feet into the water with Salman. But before she could reach even half -way she cut her foot in a sharp pebble rather badly.

Says a source, “Kareena doubled up in pain and almost fell to the ground. Salman reflexively reached for her and swooped her into his arms. And he carried her to the water.”

Says the director Prem Soni, “Throughout the shooting, you could see the special bonding that they had. But that day on the Phi Phi Island it got really special. We came much further into the land from the sea than we imagined .When it was time to go back we realized we had to walk through the pebbled beach and wade into almost head-deep water before reaching our boat. We had to do it. Otherwise we’d have to spend the night on the beach without food or water. Kareena was in
this long gown and barefoot. She was in pain. Before we knew it he swooped her into his arms and carried her into a boat. It was a very romantic-looking moment and we couldn’t let it go.”

The shot has been immortalized as a scene of the film, although it was never meant to be part of the film.

On the other hand, Reshma Shetty, Salman Khan’s endorsement manager and the couture week event organizer, told that Salman Khan didn’t want the finale.
