Katrina Kaif is not too convenient with Hindi

Katrina Kaif is not too convenient with Hindi: It’s common knowledge that Katrina Kaif is not too comfortable with Hindi, and prefers to speak in English at all public events so as to avoid anything being lost in translation. So imagine everyone’s surprise at the recent Zee Rishtey Awards when Kaif greeted the crowds in Marathi, with a robust.Kasa Kai Savita Tai? (How are you, Savita Aunty?). The crowd responded with loud cheers and whistles while the camera zoomed in on a stunned Usha Nadkarni, who plays the character of Savita Tai in the popular show Pavitra Rishta.

Well, the gal who has had a terrific innings in the picture industry has in addition had some connections with her co stars that have ended up being imbibed into the nature of her fans.One of her most remembered off screen relationships perhaps will always be with Shahid Kapoor. The duo was almost seen as the cutest couple in tinsel town and both seemed quite happy with each other at one point of time. But, as they say everything in a man’s life is destined.

Thus, the two were soon reported to have split and both moved on, with Kareena becoming very close to Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor started getting linked up to many of his co-stars including Priyanka Chopra, and till date there are speculations whether Shahid and Priyanka are in a relationship or not.

Well despite the fact that both Kareena and Shahid have moved on it seems that Bebo still has not forgotten the fact that Shahid Kapoor has tremendous sex appeal.

Priyanka Chopra the just decision for Krrish sequel

Priyanka Chopra the just decision for Krrish sequel: Bollywood is at present under the spell of sequels and trilogies. The present fad of motion picture making in the Hindi picture industry will reveal that just about each picture which was trendy at the crate office is once again being carried over as a sequel for the gathering. The Roshan tribe therefore too is not set up to be alternate behind in the race. Following tasting astringent failure with their prior release Kites, the father – son couple of Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik Roshan can be over on the Bollywood screen with a sequel to their 2006 release Krrish.

According to reports circulating in the media, apart from Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra has also been roped to reprise her role of the journalist in the sequel to the 2006 super hit film. Contrary to earlier reports where it was said that leggy lass Piggy Chops will not be a part of the upcoming movie because of her supposed fallout with the Roshans', a source close to the Roshan family has said in a statement to the media that Priyanka Chopra was the first and only choice for the sequel to Krrish.

The plot of the sequel has not been revealed as of yet, but reports suggest that the sequel will begin from where the prequel saw its end. Therefore we can expect that while Hrithik Roshan as Krrish will still be the superhero, Priyanka Chopra will be his journalist girlfriend. Rakesh Roshan however will have to search for a new negative character for his upcoming project.

Joining them was Kangna Ranaut who came on midway and was advised by Sanjay Dutt to wear more traditional wear as opposed to the designer gown she adorned. She too spoke volumes about her past relationships, married men, plastic surgery – which she flat out denied and flirting! In fact, she went on to reveal that she has tried "talking" to Akshaye Khanna, her co-star in No Problem, several times and was ignored. "He doesn’t talk!" she exclaimed. However, she did say that her new best friend in the industry was Sushmita Sen with whom she shares a warm relationship.

All talk turned to the common factor: Madhuri Dixit.

Instead, they all claimed they were busy with other plans. In turn, the party was cancelled. Next week, Karan will chat with on and off lovers Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra.
