According to a British newspaper, pop legend Michael Jackson is suffering from a rare lung condition and is "close to death". The Sunday Express quoted Ian Halperin, who is penning a biography on the singer, as saying that Jackson needs to undergo an emergency transplant operation but he is too weak to be rushed into surgery and may even be fighting for his life.

He needs a lung transplant but may be too weak to go through with it…He also has emphysema and chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, which his doctors have had a lot of trouble stopping.

“It’s the bleeding that’s the most problematic part. It could kill him," Halperin said. Author Halperin has also claimed that Jackson’s lung conditions, which affects only one in 5,000 Americans, has been difficult to treat due to its associated health problems.

Though Jackson’s official spokeswoman wouldn’t comment on Halperin’s claims but his elder brother Jermaine seemed to have confirmed that the singer has serious health issues."He is not doing so well right now. This isn’t a good time," he told Fox TV News.

Celina Jaitley hot pictures<br />
Bollywood bombshell Celina Jaitley is set to charm the Londoners in a New Year bash on December 31.

The glum mood is slowly waning away among Bollywood folks. While Malaika Arora would be flying to Singapore for a New Year performance at a hotel, Celina will head to usher in 2009 with Britons and Bollywood buffs at City Pavilion in London.

The event, named Celina Jaitley Nite, will also have on-stage performances by singer Javed Ali and rapper Rishi Rich.

However, Celina has made it clear in an interview that before her performance she wants to make sure certain things are in place. The actress says she wants to check the security arrangement and the ‘respectability’ of the event. The paycheck, of course, is of prime importance.

But how does Celina feel to be entertaining a crowd and celebrating the coming of a New Year when the pain of the Mumbai terror attacks has not yet faded away? In fact, many New Year bashes, featuring actresses like Katrina Kaif , have already been cancelled in Mumbai.

Celina says the Mumbai bashes were canceled not because the actresses wanted it but because the hotels scrapped the event. As for the terror attacks, Celina was one of the most forthcoming stars from tinsel town who open-heartedly expressed her sympathy with actor Ashish Choudhary who lost his kin in the attack. Moreover, Celina has already expressed her anger and condemnation over the attacks in an elaborate blog entry she wrote for a website.

So now, even as somber mood prevails in the tinsel town, someone has to keep the show going.

Aishwarya is learning Carnatic music for Raavana

Aishwarya Rai, Abhishek Bachchan for raavana
Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai are not only acting in Mani Ratnam ’s ‘Raavana’ together, the duo will also sing a song for the film.

A R Rahman , who has previously composed tunes for Mani Ratnam’s shelved project ‘Lajjo’, is using those very tunes for ‘Raavana’ now.

What went wrong with ‘Lajjo’ is not clear, but the movie had a stunning cast of Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor paired opposite each other for the first time. However, the project was abandoned. There was one song in ‘Lajjo’ which Rahman wanted Kareena and Aamir to sing. But since the movie got scrapped, Rahman is now using that song for ‘Raavana’ and will get Ash and Abhi to sing.

That Aishwarya is learning Carnatic music for this film is an old story now, as she plays a singer in this flick. And, on the other hand, hubby dear Abhishek too has an experience of singing while he did some rapping for Bluffmaster title track. So the idea of making both of them sing can be the USP for the film.

Raavana’ is a big film by Mani Ratnam and he is repeating his favourite actors after the successful Guru . The shooting of the film is in progress. The husband-wife duo has just finished their Kochi leg of shooting and the crew has now moved to Ooty.

The movie is being made both in Tamil and Hindi language. In the Tamil version Vikram is paired opposite Aishwarya.

John Abraham goes full nude?


After stripping down to bare minimum in Dostana , Bollywood’s pin-up boy John Abraham has now gone Full Monty for his next film.

John had minced no words in admitting in a recent interview that he is open to the idea of shedding all his clothes if a scene in the film requires him to do so. Well, it appears such a scene has finally found the actor.

Alas, it’s not a scene that would leave the girls swooning. The promos of director Kabir Khan’s upcoming film New York show John as a resident of the metropolis. He and Neil Nitin Mukesh play thick friends. But after the 9/11 attacks, the duo is picked up by the American cops and intelligence officers on the suspicion of terrorism and are tortured in custody.

There’s a shot that shows a completely naked John reclined in a fetal position and screaming out that he’s innocent.A source is quoted as saying that it is a part of the interrogation tactics to strip the suspect of all his clothes.

However, director Kabir Khan chooses to remain tightlipped about John’s nude scene and says people would have to watch the film to know its significance.

In the past, Rahul Bose has gone nude for Dev Benegal’s ‘English August’. Last year, exposed his derriere to the camera in a song in Saawariya but the shot was deleted in the final print.

Deepika Padukone-Two for the price of one

deepika padukone
The promo video for Chandni Chowk to China has hit UK screens with Deepika Padukone looking simply ravishing as a Chinese showgirl - although some people have commented that the heavy use of eyeliner has made her look older. Rumour had it originally that they were going to use adhesive tape to produce the Chinese look in her eyes. “We had thought of that initially but it wasn’t a good idea to use tapes, they’re bad for the skin,” says Deepika, “My makeup artist came up with a simpler solution and used the eyeliner in such a way that it gave my eyes the Chinese tweak.”

Deepika plays two roles in the movie - Chinese martial artist Meow Meow and an Indian girl called Sukhi. “Playing two different characters was quite challenging for me as they are so contrasting in nature. One is an Indian girl with traditional values and the other a Chinese girl who is bold and sexy”, explains Deepika.

Meanwhile, Ranbir Kapoor has denied that there is a rift between Deepika and himself over his hot on-screen relationship with Katrina Kaif. “There is nothing wrong with me and Deepika,” he says, “We are as good friends today as we were earlier. Nothing has changed at all. We are busy in our work and everything is going fine. We both are here to make a career in films. We both have to do a lot of hard work.”

The diplomatic Aamir seemed to have mentioned that the laptop was not a gift from his side and that he wanted to leave something from him with Suriya. Ahem!

Dhoni & John Abraham - Two popular hunks in one flick


It will be a double visual treat for all the female viewers to have two most popular hunks in one flick- Mahendra Singh Dhoni and John Abraham. The film is titlted ‘Hook Ya Crook’ and is inspired from the 1981 Hollywood film, ‘Escape To Victory’, which featured football star Pele. The film was about a group of prisoners escaping from a World War 2 prison camp while playing a football match. Writer Rensil D’Silva has adapted the film for an Indian audience. The prison set is currently being built by art director Samir Chanda in Hyderabad. ‘Hook Ya Crook’ is supposed to be an authentic cricket film with a huge cricket match as the climax. Dhoni has a full-fledged role in the film.

David Dhawan, the director of the film said, “Cricket does play a very important part in my film. This would be my most uncharacteristic film, very different from the comedies I am associated with. John Abraham and Uday Chopra will come together again after Dhoom. And Aditya Pancholi has a very important role. The audience will love him.”

Priyanka Chopra increased her acting fee?

Priyanka chopra hot bollywood actress12122008
Her morale boosted by two back-to-back hits, actress Priyanka Chopra is rumoured to have increased her acting fee.

Following a string of flops, Priyanka’s career is revived again after the good run of Fashion and Dostana . Now the pretty damsel has signed a Yashraj film opposite Uday Chopra . And the buzz doing the rounds is that she has quoted a whopping amount of Rs. 3 crores for the flick.

The actress, who is considered to be in Bollywood’s top league presently, was the first choice for Yashraj Films , the banner that is known to work with a selected group of stars, but is now roping in new actors who haven’t been part of their films before. Priyanka is one such star. Reportedly, Yashraj Films have agreed to pay the humungous amount to the actress despite the fact that the banner has never pampered any of their leading ladies with such an amount.According to sources, the film will be directed by Jugal Hansraj who is a part of the extended Chopra family. Since YRF plan to re-launch their son Uday Chopra with this flick, it’s hard to get any top heroine to work opposite a flop actor. May be that explains why Priyanka has managed to have her way.

At the same time, doing a Yashraj Film is a dream for any actor. But when Bollywood is already booming with talented directors and quality films, banners hardly matter.Going by reports, Priyanka instinctively liked her role in the YRF film when it was narrated to her.

Katrina Kaif says "it is risky to work with new directors"

katrina kaif hot bollywood actress 11122008
Having worked with established directors like Vipul Shah, David Dhawan, Anees Bazmee and Subhash Ghai, Bollywood’s reigning queen Katrina Kaif says although it is risky to work with new directors, she is open to the idea.

“The first thing that I see before choosing a film is definitely the director. If a new person comes to me with a script and says ’let’s go for it’, I should be really willing to take risks to agree but I guess that will also happen sometime. Working with new directors is risky,” Katrina told IANS.The actress justified her stance by narrating how she agreed to her role in recently released “Yuvvraaj”, in which she was cast opposite real-life beau Salman Khan.

“I knew that I was not the protagonist in ’Yuvvraaj’, but I wanted to be a part of it since an established director like Subhash Ghai was making it,” she said.

Katrina says most actors admit that the script excites them, but for her, right director is priority.“If a director who can’t pull off a good script comes up to me with a fantastic script and I love it, it is still a meaningless and futile exercise to go ahead with the film. For me, who directs the film is of utmost importance,” Katrina said.

Katrina’s forthcoming projects include films with directors like Prakash Jha and Rajkumar Santoshi.

The actress was a part of original version ’Ghajini’ in Tamil starring opposite Surya. As Murugadoss approached Mr. Perfectionist with a special screening in Oct 2005, the actor was quite impressed with Asin’s performance and roped her in for remake.

So, how about Aamir playing pranks on her? "No, I was quite surprised that he didn’t take on pranks while filming. Instead, he was so serious discussing every shots with his co-stars", says Asin. And on her characterization from original version and its remake, there’s nothing such big difference apart from new settings and language.

Ask her about Aamir giving Hindi tuitions that happens to be ’Talk of the town’? Well, the actress utters she’s perfectly fluent with Hindi as she studied in Naval Public School. So there was no need for tuitions…

After working with all Khans (Aamir, Salman and Saif), her only desire is all about joining hands with King Khan and she is hoping for a good offer.

Aamir Khan Ignore By Wife Kiran Rao

Aamir khan ,kiran rao
Perfectionist Aamir Khan is very concerned about the well being of his dearest wife Kiran Rao. After the recent serial blasts in Mumbai, he suggested Kiran to use extra security as she was shooting with his cast and crew in the heart of Mumbai for her latest flick Dhobi Ghat. Aamir’s anxiety increased when Kiran straightway refused for any extra security. She remained firm on her decision and did not listen to Aamir at all. She is shooting in South Mumbai with her troupe and not at all in the favor of extra security. According to Kiran, using extra security increases the production cost sky high. Dhobi Ghat includes many new comers and it is totally a Kiran Rao’s project. For the publicity purpose, she has approached husband Aamir to play a cameo and he readily agreed to appear for a small role.

Kiran is always been a helping hand for Aamir Khan. She supported him in most of his home production. Dhobi Ghar is expected to release on early next year.
