Being united

Dispelling rumours about her split with boyfriend Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif showed her solidarity for him and his NGO Being Human by turning up for a children's event wearing a T-Shirt bearing the organisation's name.

Sallu too wore a T-shirt while campaigning for Congress candidate Anu Tandon at Unnao on Sunday morning.

Being in love... is wearing the same stuff together.

For the masses

Roopkumar and Sunali Rathod are launching an album, Mann Pasand, together after six years.

The couple will be shooting on Wednesday for the promos of the songs at the Future Studios.

The album is a compilation of likeable hummable songs for the janta.

Although the Rathods are serious students of music and traditional Indian music, this album reaches out to the common man.

Yet another newbie

Madhuri Bhattacharrya, who's done South films before, is all set to make an entry in Bollywood.

Madhuri makes her debut in Bollywood with Prem Kaa Game as the modern day Meneka who destroys the happily married life of Arbaaz Khan and Tara Sharma.

Does this seductive start, make her uneasy about the sex symbol tag being attached to her name.

"Not at all", says Madhuri. Here's hoping that she doesn't end up as a one-hit wonder in Bollywood.

Yeh kya, Akki?

Akshay Kumar has stirred a hornet's nest in the Kambakkht Ishq promos which released on March 27.

The actor mouths, "Women are good only for one thing."

The film's posters are also bound to raise eyebrows, if not protests from women's groups.

Check out the sexually aggressive way Akki is holding Kareena Kapoor. Now that's just asking for trouble, no?


Hue and condoms

While filming a colourful paintball sequence for Jashn, the production house encountered problems as the stars complained of being actually hurt when a paint-filled balloon hit them.

Thehe producers decided to use softer latex, and bought a thousand condoms, which then worked quite well.

Says Adhyayan Suman, "Yes, its true that condoms replaced water balloons on the paintball sets.

It was the funniest thing I've ever encountered on a shoot! And the fact that they burst so easily on impact caused a lot of mirth on the sets !"

Saif rejects,u00a0 Shahid accepts

A Bandra birdie tells us that Saif Ali Khan was initially approached to essay the lead role of Vishal Bhardwaj's Kaminey (which now has Shahid Kapur).

Says the source, "As Vishal had worked with Saif in Omkara, he was keen that Saif play the lead role.

But Saif found the script not as commercial as Omkara and opted out."

Little did he know that his ladylove Bebo's ex would snap up the offer! Ouch!

CELEBRATION TIME: After a hiatus Aroona Irani was spotted with Kuku Kohli at a bash hosted by producer Rajan Shahi to celebrate his two shows Sapna Babul Ka... Bidaai and Yeh Ristha Kya Kehlata Hai.

Apart from the soap's cast which includes Sara Khan, Parul Chauhan, Angad Hasija, Kinshuk Mahajan, Alok Nath and Seema Kapoor several other small screen stars were present.
