Only Four For Me

If you are wondering why Deepika Padukone doesn't have any BFFs in the industry, it's because she has four gal pals who she adores and there's no room for any more sahelis in her life. Dippy tells us, "I have four best friends.

They live in London. Last year, when I was there shooting for Love Aaj Kal, they stayed with me in my hotel room. We have been friends since we were studying in Sophia High School in kindergarten."

Prankster Alert

Ranbir Kapoor is a prankster on the sets of Rocket Singh and spares no one on sets of the film in Mumbai at Yash Raj Studios.

A source reveals, "Gauhar was initially scandalised when she came on the sets. Ranbir had exchanged his assistant director's juice drink with some bitter juice, which landed the AD having a bottle of sugar.

Since then the actress has been extremely cautious with the actor's moves and checks everything around her."

Bachke Rehna re baba

Mithun Chakraborty performed a life-threatening, high-end stunt from a helicopter for a scene in Luck. Says a source, "One of the scenes required Mithunda to jump from a chopper.u00a0

Mithun agreed to perform the dare- devil stunt but while landing, slipped and hurt himself.

The crew immediately rushed to him with first-aid and later, a doctor was called in, and Mithunda was advised to take rest. But he insisted on completing the sequence." Kya dedication hai!

SHUT IT, ASHU!

Bitchy actress is also very upset with Ashutosh Gowariker for having bullied Wizcraft into editing out his little speech against Priyanka Chopra on the dais.

She says, "He's a coward. If he said something, he should stand by it. Why have it edited out? Anyway, the damage was done. If he can't stand by his words, he really should keep his big mouth shut."u00a0 We really have to agree.

Hat trick

Looks like hats are back. Farhan Akhtar and Lara Dutta wore theirs while abroad for an international holiday, Priety Zinta was seen wearing one at a recent premiere.

BIRTHDAY VIEW

Kumar Taurani celebrated his fiftieth birthday with close friends and family as also the stars who have worked with or are slated to work with his production house. Here's looking at who showed up...

Told you so!

A bitchy actress called us to say, "I don't know if it's true but I hear that Katrina has been telling people that she knew that the Akshay-Kareena pair won't click.

KK apparently even sent a text message to Akki to that effect after seeing the trial of the film. Kat feels that he will deliver hits only if he is paired with her." Over to you, Bebo.

WHY ONLY CAMEOS?

There have been rumours for some time now that Manisha Koirala has signed on for a walk-on part in Mani Ratnam's Raavan.

The actress who has worked with the south director in Dil Se, clarifies, "What would I be doing in a film that already has Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan in it? I might do Mani's next project.
u00a0
If I do work with Mani or Sanjay (Bhansali) it'd be a role worthy of me. Rituparno Ghosh, another favourite director of mine, only keeps offering me cameos and character parts. I wonder why!" We are wondering too!

RAZA'S BOLLYWOOD
