Bebo bitten by Blackberry bug

Kareena Kapoor's birthday is still a week away (on September 21) but she has already started getting gifts.

As a kid, Bebo used to love it when she got an early gift from dear friend and designer Shabina Khan. Now, Shabina has gifted the actress a Blackberry phone, which was an absolutely new gadget for her.

We heard Kareena is busy these days learning to operate the phone. She is totally worked up about the new gadget and is busy informing all her contacts about it.

Also, she will be able to chat more often with beau Saif Ali Khan.

Bebo, however, claims she is not a gadget-freak.

Lara’s weight bowls David Dhawan

These days the comedy king David Dhawan is going gaga over his ‘Do Knot Disturb’ leading lady. Lara Dutta seems to have won over David with her striking acting skills. He was highly impressed with her performance in Salmam-Govinda starrer ‘Partner’ and thus had offered her ‘Do Knot Disturb’. Not only that! The famous director was equally bowled over her weight! Says sources, “David calls Lara Perfect Miss 58 and is completely amazed how the actress has maintained 58 kilos for last six years.”

Well, this former Miss Universe truly has a hot body and now we know how Lara wins over her directors!

However, ‘Do Knot Disturb’ has another ex-Miss Universe too! Sushmita Sen does share an equally important role in the movie. The two beauties will be co-starring with Govinda, Ritesh Deshmukh and Sohail Khan.

Another interesting aspect of this movie is that the nineties' famous musical trio Nadeem-Shravan-Sameer, is back after a long time in this one. Though the Lyricist Sameer was active, Nadeem-Shravan are giving their compositions together after a long gap of five years.

Will Bollywood accept unconventional me, asks Miss India

Will Bollywood accept unconventional me, asks Miss India .An unconventional Miss India with short hair and six tattoos, Ekta Chaudhary wonders if Bollywood is ready to accept her atypical looks and personality in case she decides to follow in the footsteps of many of her famous predecessors. She also sees an element of "racism" in no Asian girl making it to the final 15 of the Miss Universe pageant in the Bahamas last month.

"I am not like other models who have long hair. I have six tattoos and I am not planning to grow my hair in the near future. This makes me very different from my contemporaries and even if I wish to work in Bollywood some day, I m wondering whether there would be a role to suit my unconventional looks," Ekta told IANS in an interview. "If yes, then I don t mind working in a film, especially if it is opposite Abhay Deol. I just love him. He is simply superb and a very good actor as well," she said. Ekta participated in the Miss Universe contest in the Bahamas last month but failed to get into the last 15. While she was sad at not making it to the top, Ekta said that representing India at the international level was an honour in itself.

"Well, I felt sad but not really disappointed. I was there to represent India and it was an honour for me to do so. What was disheartening was that none of the Asian girls made it to the final 15. It was a shock for all of us," the 22-year-old beauty said. "There were definitely many beautiful girls around. But aren t Asian girls beautiful? There should have been at least one Asian girl in the final list. It is ridiculous! If such things happen in an international pageant then we have every right to call them racist," she added.

According to Ekta, the women who were eliminated from the list of the finalists were not given a fair chance. "We didn t get the opportunity to walk the ramp in front of millions of people...be it the audience or the people back home glued to their television screens. The decision was made and people didn t even get to see us. It was not at all fair because at least one should have got the opportunity to watch us on the ramp," the Miss India rued. The leggy lass now plans a return to the ramp as she calls it her "first love".

"I love walking on the ramp. I just love it. You can also call it my first love. Very soon you will see me on the ramp. Also I would like to do some commercials but the most important thing for me right now is to start looking out for international projects. Let s see what happens," Ekta said. The Miss India has earlier walked the ramp for Ritu Kumar, Zubair Kirmani and designer duo Rahul-Gunjan amongst others.

Modern Bandit Queens Inspired by Aishwarya Rai

A filmi story took on a real life turn when 4 women, inspired by an Aishwarya Rai character, took to stealing and became bandit queens. They would spend their days as perfect wives and mothers – cooking cleaning and playing with their children - but when the sun had set, they would come out to play by themselves. The leader was Geeta and they were a gang of women thieves, inspired, they say, by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's role as Sunehri in Dhoom 2.

The women who included Geeta (30), Kela (32), Sheela (20) and Ompati (40) raided warehouses and in particular stole batteries which they could pass on easily for cash. "They had a bias for battery cells," says Inspector Raj Kumar of the Delhi police, "They would pick up boxes that contained at least 50 batteries each and sell them to a junk dealer. On an average, the gang made Rs 1 lakh a day - that is, Rs 20,000 each. We are yet to find out how many robberies they have committed."

But the story is not as straightforward as it looks at first sight. Coming from the Sansi tribe, on the fringe of society with little opportunity for jobs or access to social care, the women were trapped inside miserable lives with husbands who were alcoholics or drug addicts. Faced with the choice of steadily decaying lives or giving themselves a chance for escape, they understandably chose the latter. "To survive and feed their families, they first worked as ragpickers and also committed some petty thefts," explains DCP Aggarwal, "Then Geeta met a woman who motivated them to commit bigger crimes and gave them the example of Dhoom-2 in which a woman thief takes advantage of her gender."
