Mallika Speak about her Type of Man

Though Mallika has been linked with a businessman in the past, the actress candidly confesses that she is single and dying to mingle. But what kind of man is Mallika looking for?

Speaking to a tabloid, Mallika said she is searching for a man who is “intelligent, educated, articulate, single, and financially independent”.

But, according to Mallika, there are two strong conditions that her man has to meet. Firstly, he shouldn’t be from Bollywood. People from the film industry apparently don’t turn Mallika on. Secondly, as Mallika herself puts it: “I need a tough guy to handle me.” Boy! What does that mean?

After inking a lion tattoo on his left arm and Manyata's on the other, Sanjay Dutt is getting ready for a Japanese tattoo on his chest. He is going to ink the sixth tattoo on his chest at Hakim Aalim's parlor. Aalim says, "Sanju baba now wants a Japanese tattoo on his chest. He already has five tattoos.

Amir giving private tuition to Jiah khan

Jiah Khan, who thinks in English, got into trouble when she was asked to deliver lengthy emotional Urdu dialogues for "Ghajini" in sync sound, but says that her co-star Aamir Khan bailed her out.

"My mom, who lives in London, flew down during the shooting. She speaks Urdu fluently. She ran through the dialogues with me over and over again. I think I've done my lines very well. To have my lines dubbed would have taken away from my performance. I think I managed my lines well,"

"I must admit it was a bit of a problem. Aamir and the director got me an Urdu dialogue coach, Athar Nawaz who guided me. And each time I'd be stuck with a line Aamir helped me out," she added.

Other than speaking Hindi, Jiah, who debuted with Ram Gopal Varma's "Nishabd", has also learned Bollywood style dancing. Like the Urdu-Hindi, I've mastered the dancing to a large extent," she said.

Jiah has also shot a song titled "Lattoo" in "Ghajini" with choreographer Gita Kapoor. Ad filmmaker Ravi Udyawar has directed it. "I realised how hard it is to do a sizzling song. The song is a very Jennifer Lopez kind of number. It's very stylish and chic. In a week's time, it goes on air. That should answer the question why I'm not seen in the publicity," she said.

Shilpa had accident with her Sunglasses

Bollywood beauty Shilpa Shetty recently injured her foot and blames her big sunglasses for the mishap. The actress says that it has disrupted the schedule of her international project "Desire".

"It is nothing that local anaesthesia, a tetanus injection and antibiotics couldn't solve. There's nothing to worry about other than my dates that have gone for a toss, disabling me from taking Odissi lessons for my new film 'Desire'," she wrote.

"I hurt my foot bad enough to get 15 stitches don't ask me how. In a freak accident, thanks to my big sunglasses and nose in the air, I overlooked a sharp metal piece that slit my foot, thankfully not below but over the foot," Shilpa posted on her

But for now, she plans to take it easy for at least two weeks for the healing of her injured foot. She ended her blog by posting: "Look before you leap and stay grounded."

The actress, who made a special appearance in hit film "Dostana", is extremely excited about this Indo-Chinese project in which she is working with a foreign actor for the first time. She is paired with Chinese actor Xia Yu.

Dubai film fest is heaven on earth : Preeti Zinat

Actor Preity Zinta's Last Lear was prominent at several international film fests and now the Deepa Mehta-directed Heaven on Earth , too, is doing its bit around the globe. Only recently, the movie was screened at the Dubai Film Festival (2008). "Such films give you creative satisfaction. You don't do it for the money or any other commercial aspect. You do films like Heaven On Earth simply because they are brilliant scripts and address an issue... You feel proud to be part of such movies," says actor Preity Zinta, who also attended the 'Cinema against Aids 2008' function at the Dubai fest.

Apparently, Deepa Mehta gave Zinta very short notice, and was surprised that her actress even made it there. Mehta said, "I didn't expect to see Preity in Dubai at such a short notice. It was very sweet of her to come since Heaven On Earth is as much her film as mine." The Dubai Film Fest was a double celebration of sorts for Deepa, as her brother, Dilip Mehta's film The Forgotten Woman was also screened there.

About the reaction of the audiences there, Preity Zinta said it was 'encouraging'. "You get to meet people who are crazy about films. And it's great to talk films with them. Festivals give you a chance to be exposed to different cultures, and different forms of filmmaking," she said.

Attended by the likes of Salma Hayek, Goldie Hawn, Nicolas Cage... this fest proved to a Heaven on Earth experience for all those who attended it!

Karina Kapoor wants looks like normal girl

Kareena Kapoor has decided that the only way she can get a rest from her daunting schedule is to disappear off the scene for a holiday – so she's packed her bags and is off to the Alps for the Christmas period. Saif has arranged to be with her for a five-day period. "Kareena doesn't want to be seen in any party or event during Christmas or New Year or because she feels it is very inappropriate after of the terror attacks," said a source.

Meanwhile, as we reported trendsetter Kareena has announced the end of the Size Zero fashion. With Indian audiences clearly preferring their women to look less androgynous, she has decided she won't be keeping to a strict diet anymore. "People used to wonder what 'size zero' is and I'd joke, 'Just look at me'. I don't want that any more," she explains, "I want to look like a normal healthy girl. My forthcoming releases required me to get back to a fuller shape."

Kareena seems to be attracted to cold weather. She was recently shooting with Aamir Khan in the mountainous region of Ladakh for 3 Idiots and was also with Karan Johar's home production in Philadelphia where the temperature dropped to minus three. "It was the coldest night of my life," she says, "You've no idea what it was like in that heavy snowfall with a unit of 80 people. But it looked like heaven." Luckily, Saif was also there to keep her warm.
