SoggyCornflakes - Bollywood

Malaika Arora-Khan is done making people guess about her marriage by declaring her love for her son. Don't know if that sentence made sense and don't care.

She recently gave an interview saying that her son was the most important person in her life and her weakness.

"Arhaan is the best thing that happened to me. For anyone it's the greatest joy to have a child and for every mother her child is her weakness. And, yes, he is my weakness,"

So if anyone feels like hurting Malaika, you know how to do it. Kidnap her kid.

And when asked about what's going on with Arbaaz Khan, she talks about the movies they will act in together,

"There's no film as of now, but there is a song that I am doing with him. I have done a song with him earlier (for Shubha Mudgal's album 'Dholna'), but this is the first time I am pairing up with him for a film song."

Um, great?

The Bollywood world is enraged. Two supposedly well-respected members of the industry stooped so low for publicity that it's just so sad and I don't mean crying sad I mean pathetic sad. Arbaaz Khan and wife Malaika Arora-Khan staged a publicity stunt by acting as if their marriage was on the rocks and they were heading for a divorce. The news was quite surprising to hear since the two had always looked like their marriage was solid. Guess what? They were chosen as brand ambassadors for some skin-care product and chose the event (above) to renew their love and show the world how much they really cared. I'm sure this is a whole new low for the industry and I hope they're enjoying their cheap publicity. Saddos.

Well, no one cares what you think, Sophie Chaudhary is the choice item girl for Sanjay Gadhvi's new film Kidnap. Initial reports suggested that it would be Malaika Arora-Khan and sister Amrita Arora who'd be paired up the song, but were replaced by Sophie. Sophie says,

"Sanjay Gadhvi and I have been good friends! He had spoken to me about this song three weeks ago. I usually have refrained from doing item numbers, but I could not say no to this one as it was for a crucial part of the film. The song appears during the pre-climax of the film. It is great being a part of a film in such a big way. Also it involved Sanjay Dutt and I'd do anything for a respected and adored actor like him".

And what does she say about beating out the Arora sisters for the role?

"I am doing the song now and that is a fact! I am not aware whether Malaika and Amrita were to do it. I was not in country when the news that Malaika and Amrita were to do the number splashed out in the media. I don't even care about it."

Shame for the sisters.

A nice easy post this one is...Happy Valentine's Day everyone...since I don't believe in the commercial holiday, which is nothing more than an excuse to make guy's feel guilty, girls feel stupid and everyone wastes money on tacky teddy bears and plastic roses. Love is not this but let's see how Bollywood will be spending it's day...

Aishwarya Rai: "I'll be attending the premiere of Jodha-Akbar in Delhi on Valentine's Day. But Abhishek will be with me. So no complaints. Every day is a simple day and every day is a celebration. What you make of every moment is what it’s all about. Bipasha Basu: Doing: "We're going for a short trip to Cape Town.

Desire: "For many more such Valentine's Days" Pooja Bedi: Doing: "I've absolutely no plans. It's a day for LOVERS,not about being with loved ones, friends and relative.

Is that allowed? Desire: "My Valentine desire would be to finally meet Mr Right. But if that's not possible this Valentine then fine. Just get me a man who's hot-looking and a great conversationalist. Then even a Mr Wrong will do. Celina Jaitley: Desire: My Valentine wish is to find true love.

It's a very boring news day today and this might be the most interesting story doing the rounds. After India returned from the Twenty20 tournament successfully, the annoying midget that is Sreesanth was offered a role in Bollywood, which he's kinda interested in. But as the track record for cricket players becoming actors go, things are not looking up for the bowler. While he's been discouraged from taking any role, actresses were asked if they would ever work with him. Responses ranged all over, but the last one is my favourite. Celina Jaitley: “Sure, one never knows where a star can appear from.” Nandana Sen: “If Sreesanth plays his character as well as he plays cricket, why wouldn’t I want to be paired with him?” Malaika Arora: “If that movie also stars Mammoothy, then I’d rather co-star with Mammoothy.” Amrita Arora: “I’m a Malyaleee too, so why not?” Neetu Chandra: “I’d rather see him concentrate on cricket and win laurels for India than join movies.” Kangana Ranaut: “Me and Sreesanth? Why not? Sreesanth could be as good as an actor as a cricketer.” Gul Panag: “Sorry, but I’m foggy about who Sreesanth is. Does he play cricket?” If Sreesanth starts acting, I'm giving up Bollywood!

Idiot... Like he's not annoying enough on the show, Karan Johar is now gonna tell us who he thought was best on his show, by presenting the Koffee Awards. That's like having your own mini-Oscars, or IIFA, whichever industry you wanna look at, but instead of looking at talent, charm or skill, he's gonna present the awards for whoever said the stupidest line...or something like that. Tha categories are: Most Glamorous Male (read: whoever Karan would want) Most Glamorous Female (who Karan would want if he wasn't gay) Best Debut Male (Celebrity making an appearance for the first time on Season 2) Best Debut Female Best Supporting Appearance (Celebrity who features in the latter half of the episode as a surprise!) Best Rapid Fire - male Best Rapid Fire - female Best Line of The Season (whoever said the stupidest thing) Karan won't be deciding all the winners himself, he has Malaika Arora Khan and some other people I haven't heard of to help him. I think the season finale happened on the 16th...so who won?

Arbaaz Khan recently gives an interview where he talks about how much he likes working with his wife and how he's not at all intimidated by her success. Then he pulled out a gun and shot himself for telling such a big lie. Nah, I'm joking. Why would he shoot himself? It's not like Malaika Arora-Khan is successful.

"I'm quite comfortable being the husband of a woman who's a big celebrity. And of course a superstar's brother. It's not an enviable place to occupy. But it's the reality. I'm very closely related to two very successful people, and I accept that happily." "But I don't fight their (Salman and Malaika) presence in my life. I know their celebrity status is a reality in my life. I'm very closely connected to two very successful people. But I love my brother and my wife so much that I want them to grow from strength to strength. And though Salman is where he is on his own, I'd like to take some credit for where Malaika are. We've been together for fourteen years. Even before she was my wife and the mother of child I was very encouraging and supportive. I've always encouraged her to work. I've always believed, if you love someone then let that person occupy the space that makes her happy. That in turn, brings you tremendous happiness."

As much as I'd like to laugh at them, I do have to give them credit. 14 years in Bollywood is like...well, 14 years in real life, but that's still an achievement. Well done Arbaaz, your wife didn't kick you out in 14 years.

Welcome everyone, it's a new crap week and I'm back to report the latest stale crap to you. Let us all rejoice. The stories keep making the rounds...Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan getting married, not getting married, getting engaged...which basically annoys everyone to bits, especially since I report every piece of rumour to you. So the latest is that they are getting married and probably in the near future, since Salman isn't the type of guy to plan things far in advance. Salman's brother Arbaaz Khan says:

"There is no such thing on the cards now...In any case, Salman is not the guy who would plan anything six months in advance,"

His wife Malaika says:

"Well, it all depends on Salman bhai. I just can't forecast his wedding details. But yes, we also expect something good to happen soon,"

So they have alot to say but it does look like a shaadi will take place. No comments from the golden couple though...why don't they just say what's going on and stop baiting us?

Malaika Arora Khan (who’s apparently one of Bollywood’s hottest babes…but to me, is Bollywood’s hottest Tranny…ok, I’m just being mean, she’s ok, but was man-looking in her item song in Kaal). The actress insists that she finds item numbers the best part of a movie and enjoys doing them (get happy, Kareena)

"They are the high points of a movie where the composition is given the best of everything – right from music, setting to actor's glamorous looks. I just enjoy doing every bit of it."

I’m afraid you’re wrong Malaika, item numbers are just the best because it’s an attempt to boost a movie from failure by throwing in a half-naked girl and a good song.
