Rumour suggests Band Baajaa Baraat beauty Anushka Sharma slashed her fees to steal a scooter ad campaign from Katrina Kaif.
According to a source: The two-wheeler company wanted Katrina to be their brand ambassador but couldn't afford her whopping Rs 6 crore fee. Anushka's name cropped up but her quoted price of Rs 4 crores also proved too high. Anushka, who wanted the deal desperately, is then reported to have slashed her fees further and bagged the campaign.
Coming Up: Bollywood's most bitter Star Wars -
30 years after the alleged Amitabh-Rekha-Jaya triangle was played out on screen in Silsila, it seems that the Jaya vs Rekha war has been renewed, with a contemporary twist. When actress Rekha was nominated to the Rajya Sabha last week, industry watchers and wags speculated that Jaya Bachchan, Samajwadi Party MP in the Upper House, could not have been thrilled by the news. Now, records show that Mrs Bachchan has formally requested a change in the seating plan in the Rajya Sabha. She is currently assigned seat 91 and Rekha was given seat 99, which may have been too close for comfort.
Coming Up: More Star Wars to follow. -
The Delhi Belly item song I hate you (like I love you) started the battle between Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan.
Though the two respect each other, Big B hit out at Aamir Khan's Delhi Belly having an edge over his own Bbuddah...Hoga Terra Baap, vis-à-vis his blog.
"They repeatedly taunt my modesty, for, it worries them how my vocabulary does not entertain immodesty. They chuckle and snigger at this 'act' of mine as my greatest performance, for, they are not qualified enough to judge what an actual creative performance comprises of," wrote the legendary superstar.
While Big B concluded with a cryptic "I shall sleep well. Will they?", one can't help but question is the 'friendship' between the two over? -
Battling another war, Aamir Khan's I Hate You (Like I Love You) joke didn't go down well with Anil Kapoor and inc..
Anil was unaware of the good-natured mention he had earned in the Delhi Belly producer's item number, but heard it straight from his friends as soon as he put foot in town. And if sources are to be believed, he wasn't laughing.
Mr Perfectionist had said, "The hairstyle is borrowed from Amitji, (Amitabh Bachchan), the dancing moves are inspired from Rishiji (Rishi Kapoor), Mithunda (Mithun Chakraborty) and Govinda, and the chest hair is inspired by Anil Kapoor."- AK's hair? He's not pleased, thank you very much. -
Ever since rumours of him dating Katrina hit the headlines, RK's been walking on thin ice. And now it's finally broken- Salman is sending feelers to his producer friends not to cast Ranbir Kapoor.
Ranbir never wanted to be on Salman's hit-list, and now that he's 'broken up' with Katrina it makes no sense whatsoever. So what really infuriated the frequent 'Star Wars' warrior? The fact that RK refused to publicly acknowledge his fling with Katrina, leaving the Dabangg star's ex-flame really hurt. Looks like Salman's not lost his protective flair! -
Ekta and Tusshar Kapoor had a spat on Karan Johar's chat show Koffee With Karan over Tusshar's present lady love Radhika Apte.
A source close to the family said, "Tension has been brewing in the Kapoor household ever since Tusshar came out about his 'close friendship' with his Shor In The City co-star.
However, it was in the rapid fire round on the show that Ekta could not hide her displeasure at Tusshar's growing fondness for his co-star. -
Did you think the whole Koffee with Karan fiasco between Sonam, Deepika and Ranbir is water under the bridge? Apparently not, because the outspoken actress had quite a few things to say about her former Saawariya.
The Masakali girl says, "I don't speak to Ranbir anymore. We are no longer friends. He doesn't feature in my life at all. Also I have never had my heart broken by him!" Rebuttal, Ranbir? -
Aamir's general gravitas makes it difficult to digest his repeated potshots against SRK. This time, as his chatty self on his birthday, he very frankly told the media how SRK never deserved " a Best Actor" he received recently. Giving his thumbs up to the Kela Awards giving SRK the Worst Actor, he thinks that Salman Khan and Ajay Devgn are in many ways better actors.
While it may seem out of the blue to us, the real story is yet to be known. -
Earlier the usually diplomatic Aamir had had a momentary lapse of reason when he blogged about his pet dog, called Shah Rukh! Aamir found it funny that 'Shah Rukh' was licking his feet but SRK certainly didn't. The two had managed to make up, but like public memory their new friendship was shortlived.

Big brother Arya Babbar has lashed out at Prateik for his recent remarks on the Bachchans, and he claims to speak for his family.
The enmity between the Bachchan khandaan and the Babbars is age old and stretched from movies to politics. So it was a shock to many, and obviously the Babbar parivaar, when younger son Prateik stated in an interview that in Abhishek Bachchan he saw a big brother. This, after he dropped the Babbar surname.
What is not shocking one bit, is the very verbal disapproval that Arya has for his kid brother now, even going to the extent of saying that Prateik pulls off all sorts of stunts for publicity and he wouldn't be surprised if he next calls someone else his father. We can only assume he's talking about Big B. -
After Kareena Kapoor's taunt about Priyanka Chopra's accent on Koffee with Karan, it looks like Priyanka is in no mood to spare her.
Thus, there was sweet revenge for Priyanka, when she was invited for the show along with Shahid Kapoor and was asked about Kareena's question to which the pretty actress gave a very tongue in cheek answer. Priyanka said she had got her accent from the same place where Saif Ali Khan, Kareena's boyfriend had got his.Meow!
Can you really blame us for not believing in the hugs they exchanged on stage to clarify that they weren't really enemies? -
Deepika vs Katrina: When cracks appeared in the Deepika-Ranbir relationship they were blamed on Ranbir's growing fondness for Ajab Prem co-star Katrina. Deepika may have moved on as well but clearly the break up really hurt - she spoke on national television about how she'd like to take a look at Kat's passport. Meow!

Priyanka vs Lara: This one just keeps going with fights over who gets more screen time and better clothes to vying for attention from a certain "khiladi". These two just never give it a rest - we're looking forward to whatever fireworks Don 2 might bring…

Shilpa vs Twinkle: Khiladi Kumar is the troublemaker between wife Twinkle and ex-flame Shilpa. Their cold war provides occasional grist for the gossip mills - like when Twinkle didn't invite next door neighbours Shilpa and husband Raj to her Diwali party.

Sonam vs Aishwarya: Newbie Sonam Kapoor is barely out of her Bollywood diapers but has already gone head to head with Queen of Hearts Ash. When she bacame the face of L'Oreal, following in Ash's illustrious footsteps, she spoke publicly about how she was on the right side of the 30 and therefore deserved it more. Now now, Sonam...
