This weekend on ‘Sajid Superstars’, Arjun Rampal and Dia Mirza are the guests for the evening. Read on to know what to expect from the show:
- First to arrive is Arjun Rampal who talks in length about his personal life. From the place of his birth to the college he studied in Delhi University to his initial days of struggle in the world of glamour, Arjun gives a detailed account.
- He shares an interesting incident about his courtship days with popular supermodel Meher Bhasin. Because he didn’t have much money in hand during his earlier days, he and Meher couldn’t afford to eat non-vegetarian food on a daily basis. So it used to be once a week for them!
- However, now with his financial status being up there, he frequents quite a few eateries with his wife and kids. No wonder, he gets a special gift from Sajid Khan that revolves around food. Check the special episode to know what does Arjun have in store for him!
- There is some shock in store for audiences as Arjun discloses the real status about rumors revolving around him being a bisexual. Sajid probes him around the casting couch in the fashion industry and also nails him on the rumors which floated around his alleged affair with a popular male dress designer a few years back. While Arjun does acknowledge that he didn’t have disrespect for any individual regardless of his or her sexual orientation, he admits that his fans ranging from males, females to homosexuals. But how about his own orientation? Arjun tells it all!
- Last few months have been great for Arjun professionally with Don, Om Shanti Om and recently Rock On turning out to be huge box office winners. Arjun confesses that Om Shanti Om is quite close to his heart since it changed his life. He appreciates Farah Khan for being the best director he has worked with since she could help him understand himself as an actor.
- No wonder, the best scene of his features from Om Shanti Om while the worst scene is from…..Any guesses?!?
- He openly reveals his admiration for Shah Rukh Khan and details how he has not just influenced his life but taught him a lot as a producer, actor and person.
- When asked whom did he find the hottest of all, Katrina featured on the top of the list for Arjun
- Arrival of Dia Mirza on the show makes things further interesting as she talks about what went wrong between Vashu Bhagnani (who launched her in Rehnna Hai Terre Dil Mein) and her. She was apparently the lead heroine in his Om Jai Jagdish as well but was later replaced by Tara Sharma.
- Dia Mirza gets sentimental talking about her love life. She says that her heart is pure when in love and she doesn’t feel like hiding anything from anyone. For her, it is the love that an individual carries for her which is more important that the riches he carries. No wonder, Sajid and Arjun were seen pulling her leg for this statement of hers!
- As many are aware, Lara Dutta, Priyanka Chopra and Dia Mirza were #1, 2 and 3 in the Miss India contest a few years back. This prompted Ranbir to ask Dia a cheeky question that whether three of them continue to be enemies till date!
- On being asked that who is the better actor between the three of them, Dia boldly said that it is she. She also declared that even the combined talent of Lara and Priyanka wasn’t on par with the talent that she came with.
- Wait, there is more to come. On quizzed about the woman who was prettier - whether Ash or herself - Dia cheekily answered that she knew the answer but since Ash is senior, she would say that it’s her!

Till Sunday, while the whole of India couldn’t stop rolling with laughter looking at the antics of two on-screen ’self-confessed’ homosexuals (read Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham) in the Kjo’s Dostana, the Pakistanis were having it otherwise, after the Lahore High Court imposed a ban on the film stating that it has some highly objectionable “gay content”, following a writ petition filed by Khurram Khan, who maintained that Dostana promoted gay marriage which is prohibited in Islam and all other religions.
But from today, the Pakistanis too can join their Indian counterparts, with the Lahore High Court lifting the ban and giving a go-ahead for provisional screening in four cinemas of Lahore. All of this came with a clause that the countrywide screening would be allowed only after they get the final and total consent from the Pakistan Film Censor Board.
Hopefully, this Dostana will eventually spread its wings to both the countries as well.

Bollywood actress and former Miss World Priyanka Chopra says she gets goosebumps whenever she sashays down fashion runways.
‘I am not a ramp-friendly person, as professionally I have walked the runway just for a couple of months. You can say I am out of practice,’ Chopra said after she turned out for designer Ritu Kumar at the inaugural show of the HDIL Indian Couture Week here late Tuesday.
‘In movie making, we have so many cuts and takes that we can cover up our goof ups but on the ramp, everything is live. Hats off to the professional models who do it so gracefully,’ Chopra told IANS.
Chopra had first walked the ramp for Kumar when she was just 16, and doesn’t remember the last time she did so professionally!
‘I have been doing it for friends only, like I did today but apart from that, I do not remember when was the last time I did it professionally,’ Chopra said.
‘After winning Miss World title, I shifted to movies so there was no scope of doing it on a professional level.’
Chopra had made her Bollywood debut with Anil Sharma’s The Hero: Love Story Of A Spy (2002) but climbed the ladder of success two years later with Aitraaz, in which she played a negative role. Very soon, the actress will be seen in Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Fashion’ in which she is plays the role of a supermodel named Sonia.
‘I have got so much into the skin of my character that while walking the ramp (Tuesday) there was a sense of deja vu that director would yell Cut. Of course, that did not happen,’ Chopra said smilingly.
Apart from Fashion, the actress will be seen in Goldie Behl’s Drona opposite Abhishek Bachchan and Tarun Mansukhani’s Dostana, also opposite Abhishek Bachchan. The movies are slated for release in October and November respectively.
On Tuesday, the actress looked beautiful in Kumar’s outfit - a maroon lehnga with intricate zardozi work all over and a green choli, with a big emerald green maang tikka on her forehead.
Speaking about the outfit, Chopra said: ‘Her collection has always been elegant. It’s understated and yet makes one look stunning and beautiful.’
Said Kumar: ‘She is my favourite Miss India. I know her for ages now!’
Chopra couldn’t do anything but smile after the designer diva publicly admitted her fondness for the actress.

The sexy actress who is last film Salaam e Ishq didn’t garner much salaams at the box office is all set to storm the screen this year with not one or two but six mega budget films. Including a slew of SFX laden films like Drona and the futuristic LoveStory 2050. Sporting a healthy Miami tan but looking fresh despite Mumbais killer temperature Priyanka settles for a chat with BT Where has she been all the while. Well I have about seven films in hand and the whole of last year was spent shooting for them. In fact I have been shooting around the clock and am now looking forward to a long vacation with my family she replies. Once a forerunner for the crown of Bollywood Queen Priyanka seems to have been overtaken by the likes of Kareena and Katrina of late but the actress is unperturbed. Why would I be daunted by their success? Both are talented and deserving actresses and I loved Kareena in Jab We Met she says defensively. But didn’t she miss being a part of the buzz of tinselville? Well I could have stayed in the news if I wanted to by going on and on about my personal life. But I chose not to. My films are soon going to be out and my work will do the rest of the talking. First Krishh then LoveStory and later Drona she seems to be a favourite when it comes to films loaded with super effects. Isn’t she afraid of being slotted as a prop actress considering films like these really don’t have much scope to show acting prowess? Well if I am doing such special effects laden movies I am also doing films like Dostana What is Your Raashee? God Tussi Great Ho and Fashion. I have a mixed fare on my platter from comedy to a socially relevant film and a hard core masala film to action oriented films. Besides I don’t believe that films like Krissh don’t provide enough scope to act. No film can do well because of special effects alone the emoting angle has to be equally strong and that requires talent Priyanka responds. An actress who is always followed her heart Priyanka believes that she is been lucky to have been so warmly accepted by the industry and the audience. I believe that destiny has carved a path for me already I just had to have the guts to follow it. And I am proud of where it is taking me so I have no regrets she says of her 5-year stint in Bollywood. And where does she see herself in the future and if you are asking me about the near future then it will have to be doing good satisfying work but if you are asking me in the future as far as 2050 I will be a happily settled grandmother watching my films with my grandchildren she laughs.
