South actress Asin who is trying to make a splash in B-Townu00a0allegedly has BBO (bad body odour).

Says a unit member from the sets of Vipul Shah's London Dreams, "Initially, Salman Khan and Ajay Devgan tried to be friendly with Asin during the first schedule of London Dreams in London as she was a newbie to Hindi films and to make her comfortable.

But within a few days both had to concede defeat as her BO just was intolerable. Apparently, the actress has overactive sweat glands. They even tried sending her deos and body sprays but she wasn't interested in using them."

Check out the sweat stains on Asin's outfits (in the pictures shown above) and you will sympathise with Khan and Devgan.

SRK ki deewani

Sonam Kapoor is a big fan of Shah Rukh Khan and has watched all his films. Says a source close to her, "Sonam is completely in awe of SRK.

She has watched all his films and even remembers his introduction scene on a bike in Deewana. In fact, when she first saw that film and him singing Koi Na Koi Chahiye Pyaar Karne Walau00a0 she fell out of her bed.

Whenever SRK is around, Sonam gets coy and starts behaving like a klutz. Sonam is more comfortable with Gauri, Shah Rukh's wife and can chat with her comfortably.

Recently, when SRK came up to her a party and spoke to her, Sonam thought she was going to faint in sheer delight!"

Bhai ka kya?

After reading Aamir Khan's interview in a tabloid yesterday a bitchy actress called us to say, "Wish Aamir would focus more on his younger brother Faisal Khan's career than SRK's. Faisal appears to be in dire straits.

He has been living at Tilak Nagar in Chembur for the last year and surviving on his past LIC policies, loans and Public Provident Fund. Faisal has also been writing a script.

The Ghajini actor's brother, who travels in local trains is not willing to talk about how he is making ends meet." We called him after we heard thatu00a0 people at a recent party had overheard him saying,u00a0 'khana khaake jaoonga.
u00a0
At least today I don't have to worry where my dinner is going to come from.'u00a0 However the self-respecting man had nothing to say on the subject, "Why do you want to know? I am managing to survive.

It's nobody's concern how I am earning my living. At the moment I am not looking for a producer but I am working on something." We wish him luck.

Akki ki Holi

While none of the B-Town biggies had any Holi party, Akshay Kumar had a private one (until the TV cameras came peeping in) at his Juhu bungalow.

While latest buddy Aamir Khan wasn't seen at the party, there were a host of Akshay's rishtedaars from all over the country who had come to stay at Akshay's tastefully designed (by wife Twinkle) Juhu bungalow.

Akshay appeared to be in his element, playing and spraying coloured water on son Aarav and his guests and was even sipping bhang during intervals.

Bollywood's goatee gang

While the Big B has trimmed his snow-white French beard, Akshay Kumar's goatee (with lots of greys) has made an appearance.

Nach le, Lamba!

Minissha Lamba grooved to 'Hey Ya' from Kidnap with the contestants for Knights and Angels. The actress was very happy to be part of a reality show for cheerleaders as she loves dancing. She even became sentimental when the contestants were eliminated and cried for them.

Anil honoured

Slumdog Millionaire star Anil Kapoor is to be honoured at the seventh annual Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles next month. The actor, who played a TV host, will be saluted by his peers at The ArcLight in Hollywood, during the 21-26 April festival.

Kapoor's tribute will include screenings of his two classic filmsu00a0Lahme (1991) and Virasat (1997), as well as Gandhi My Father, which he produced. He says, "I am humbled and honoured that my work as an actor and film-maker has been chosen to receive such a fantastic tribute."

Action taken!

After our story ('Celina's airport drama', HiTLIST, February 17) about Celina Jaitly and other female passengers being treated badly at the Delhi airport, strict action has been taken against the CISF jawans.

CCTV footage proved that the jawans had indeed been misbehaving with the passengers and they were reprimanded. Celina was pleasantly surprised when she got a call from the Director-General (CISF, Delhi) Mr Bannerji. She says, "I am very happy that the Mid-Day report has made such a huge difference.

Apart from the Delhi Director-General, Sanjay Prakash, the CISF chief for Mumbai also called and assured me such an incident won't happen again.

I am assured that the officers will be trained and taught how to behave with those travelling, especially women."u00a0 Meanwhile the jawans are attending special classes to train them in etiquette and behavorial skills.
