4,500 dirham worth beauty regime for Priyanka
Priyanka Chopra is creating wonders in Hollywood. Shutterbugs cannot get enough of her on the red carpet. She hangs out with the coolest dudes (read Tom Hiddleston, Chris Martin, Hugh Jackman etc) at various events. But what you don't know is that she works really hard to keep her skin glowing and spends around Dhs4500 every month on her skin care ( face wash, night cream, under eye cream, anti-aging cream, lip balm etc) and hair care (shampoo, conditioner and serum) routine. This figure has been revealed by DNA newspaper. Apart from the money, we want to tell you that the lady works hard on herself. She washes her face twice at night to make sure each and every particle of make-up is removed from her skin. Of course, there is big money but there is a lot of dedication as well behind her great looks.
Salman is there for Katrina
We love the stories of exes being good friends even after a break up. Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor are the idols in that area. But not many know that Salman Khan has been a pillar of support for Katrina Kaif while she was dealing with her break up. Adding salt to her wound is the constant failure in her professional life. We hear that Salman has once again taken Katrina under his wings. Remember, he was the one who made her a successful star. Very recently, they came together for a clothing company commercial. They have also signed a sequel to Ek Tha Tiger. Rumour has it that Salman was the first person Katrina got in touch with after her break-up with Ranbir.
Anushka and Ranbir once again
They were first seen in the biggest dud of Bollywood Bombay Velvet. Now we can see them creating new #friendshipgoals for us in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil trailers. It is also being reported that Anushka Sharma will play a key character in Rajkumar Hirani's Sanjay Dutt biopic starring Ranbir Kapoor. Apparently, she is playing the role of a writer who chronicles Sanjay's life. Anushka is extremely close to her PK director and also Ranbir. So there was no question of her rejecting this role. And no, she is not playing the role of Maanyata Dutt or any of Sanjay's love interests. The film is all set to mount the sets in January 2017. None of the other leading ladies have been finalised so far.
Alia is a big girl in this big world
We have seen Alia Bhatt go from being a teenager who made a splash in candy-floss flick Student of the Year to playing a dark role in Udta Punjab. This girl is making all the smart choices when it comes to grabbing the best movie roles and great endorsement deals for some extra money. This 23-year-old actress recently purchased a plush three-bedroom apartment in Mumbai and decorated them with many items bought from Dubai, London and Mexico. She will move into the house with her sister Shaheen. We hear papa Mahesh Bhatt who loves his daughters dearly doesn't like this idea of them staying away. But he also understands their need to have their own space. We want to grow up to be like Alia!
GUESS WHO
This actress has revealed to her director friend about how her co-star chased her relentlessly while he was still in a relationship with his long-time partner. Tabloids were abuzz with rumours of their closeness while they were shooting in outdoor locales but she always dismissed all the stories. The actress even showed all the messages to her director where the actor was professing his love for her. But the young girl is in no mood to get into any serious relationship as she wants to focus on her career completely.
