Concerts abroad mean big money for all actors.That’s the reason everyone is ok with sweating it and running around the globe. The Bachchans who are on a whirlwind tour will come back a lot richer. But money is not the only reason they were looking froward to the tour. Before leaving Abhishek told BT, “Apart from the fact that we’re going to go out there and entertain our fans, it’s great to spend time together.
Not just as a couple, but also as family. The last time we spent six weeks together it was during Sarkar Raj. Such occassions give us an opportunity to spend precious moments together. It’s wonderful that we get to be each other. The added advantage this time is that a lot of our other friends have also joined us.” Well after all, it’s all about loving your family and friends!

The moolah that Kat has received for the same is said to be much higher than what was paid to Ash, when she had signed on in 2004.
With the music album of BACHNA AE HASEENO touching the top of the charts, it was just a matter of time before a promotional music video, featuring the lead stars was aired. And with just two weeks to go for the worldwide release of their next venture (after a row of flops), people at Yash Raj Films have decided to go in for an extensive promotion (something which was lacking in their recent releases) of the Bipasha, Ranbir, Deepika and Minissha starrer.
Those who have monitored Bollywood proceedings over the last few years will recall that the first major instance of a King Khan and Khiladi Kumar starrer releasing together was back in 2004. It was Yash Chopra's VEER ZAARA against Subhash Ghai's Abbas-Mustan directed, AITRAAZ. While VEER ZARA went on to become a super-hit, netting well over 40 crores from India, AITRAAZ managed an above average status with around 18-19 crores.
In Bollywood, the name 'Rahul Dev' is associated with machismo and versatility. Even though he is not seen that often these days on silver screen, the coming months would witness an array of Rahul's forthcoming releases.
'Odh Li Chunariya' [PYAAR KIYA TO DARNA KYA], 'Chunari Chunari' [BIWI NO. 1], 'Dupatta' [PARTNER], 'Odhni' [TERE NAAM], 'Laal Dupatta' [MUJHSE SHAADI KAROGI] - it has been a long standing fascination for a 'chunari', 'dupatta', 'odhni' and the likes when it comes to Salman Khan.
The ongoing tussle of priority between Zayed Khan's dates for Mission Istaanbul and Subhash Ghai's Yuvraj has reached a flashpoint.
- Within 24 hours of rocking the show at LA, the stars were already on the job in front of San Francisco crowds. With back to back shows over the weekend, fatigue was bound to set in but the moment lights went on and thousands of fans screamed in unison, it was business as usual for everyone who forms a part of 'The Unforgettable Tour'! The business of announcing their arrival. The business of entertaining people. The business of making sure that everyone out there got much more than what they could have ever bargained for.
- Vintage Bollywood is continuing to enthrall the crowds with Madhuri Dixit rocking the show once again after LA. Onlookers claim that they have been waiting for a moment like this for years now. And it is indeed quite some moment when she merely winks and passes a glance to the waiting audience. No wonder, people out there are loving each and every moment when Madhuri graces the stage with her presence. The 'Dola Re' wave continues!
Even years after Madhuri Dixit leaving the Indian shores and settling down abroad, her fan base hasn't shown any decline. In fact curiosity around her appearance has only grown with every passing year. Meanwhile, even after being married for years, she is still asked questions about her celebrity husband Sriram Nene. If he makes it for an event (with Madhuri Dixit), there are questions asked. And if he is missing, questions are asked then as well!
Mallika Sherawat is at it again!
- The BIG evening arrived. The evening of 26th July. The evening when Madhuri announced loud and clear, yet again, that she is THE lady when it comes to making hearts 'dhak dhak' go all over again. Worldwide. And she did that in style. Making her debut in 'Unforgettable' at Los Angeles, she made a grand entry where she arrived with a horde of dancers who graciously made way for her to take center stage. What followed from there on was sheer magic!
He is the son of the most illustrious parents one can ever get, parents (legendary Sunil Dutt and Nargis Dutt) who were (and will forever remain) the torchbearers of Bollywood. He is none other than Sanjay Dutt aka Sanju who is also fondly called as 'Munnabhai', after his smash hit films Munnabhai MBBS and Lage Raho Munnabhai
Viveck Vaswani is a happy man. His Dulha Mil Gaya, which has been in the making for around 1 and half years now, is fast nearing the finishing mark. The film would be more than 90% through this week as a marathon 20 day schedule comes to a close. In fact in the days gone by, the crew has already shot a substantial portion of the film in Panchgani, Vashi and Pune.
Lara Dutta’s exuberant as ever, and completely at ease while discussing her scuba-diving skills.
Four of her films in the last two years have been hits. When she came into the film industry, her accent was frowned upon. Her turbulent relationship with Salman Khan has occupied a lot of news space. So has her link-up with co-star Akshay Kumar. She doesn't have friends in the industry because she is perceived to be snooty. Katrina Kaif takes on all these charges, and answers them without batting an eyelid, metaphorically speaking.
If Harman has the pluck to play cricket with the champs, it's because national cricketer Praveen Amre has been taken on as the expert consultant in Victory to make sure Harman gets it right, each time.
Yes, Salman’s first period drama Veer is all set to go on the floors on August 6th. And all the confusion over its director has come to an end. After the casting couch controversy it was reported that Sohail might don the director’s hat but now it’s clear that its original director, Anil Sharma will direct it.
Deepika Padukone has been linked to a string of men in the past – from her ex, Nihar Pandya, to Yuvraj Singh.
Just recently (July 15) we carried an article (checkout -Folks, its time for Shahid's annual solo hit!) predicting the third consecutive solo success for teenage heartthrob Shahid Kapoor. We talked about how Shahid had given two humongous solo hits during the last two years by way of VIVAH and JAB WE MET. We also stated that there are strong chances of Shahid continuing the winning trend through another solo triumph with Aziz Mirza's KISMAT KONNECTION.
-It was BIG so far, it is bound to be BIGGER from here on. 'Dhak Dhak' Queen Madhuri Dixit has joined the show and stakes have gone further up from here. There would be seven shows in USA over next few days and as is pretty much expected by now (looking at the response in Toronto and Trinidad), they are all already sold out. And yes, Madhuri would be featuring in each of these shows.
- Flu means that Amitabh Bachchan has been out of circulation for two days now. So while all the youngsters are having fun and attending press conferences and cracking jokes and roaming around, the Senior B is keeping all precautions to be in his best shape before the mega event on the night of 26th July. Being grounded by Mrs. Jaya Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan, Big B has his laptop for company and is keeping himself busy blogging with his fans and followers around the globe!
- Those who visited Universal Studios to witness the shooting of 'Kambakth Ishq' were in for some surreal moments awaiting them. It was quite an experience to see Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor and the likes to be shooting on the sets of a Hollywood studio, something that is unprecedented. There were countless onlookers at the shoot was in progress. Later in the evening, Sabeer Khan (director of 'Kambakth Ishq') celebrated his birthday by taking Vishal, Shekhar, and Anvita (dialogue and lyrics writer of the film) for a private gathering in a Japanese gathering. Akshay Kumar, Twinkle Khanna, Aftab Shivdasani, and the film's crew joined them as well. All of them have been extended an invitation for the show now!
It's amazing what a power of three can do to a film and the Tour. Yes, I am talking about the Bachchan family, Amitabh, Abhishek, and Aishwarya. First it was their film Sarkar Raj that grossed almost £400,000 in the U.K. and now it's their Unforgettable Tour which is selling like hot cakes in America. Not surprised to find out that all the shows are almost house full, I was more than curious to know Mr. Bachchan's recovery. So what if one of the power house took a back seat, we still had the power of three. This time it was Jayaji, Abhishek, and Aishwarya who took over the proceedings. Hours before his first live performance in L.A. Abhishek Bachchan sounds upbeat...and why not? He is having a great response from the Tour so far, is highly excited about his next release Drona, is desperate to perform in front of his audience in London and of course, boosting with happiness to see his dad, our very own Big B, fully recovered. All this and much more from Abhi in this exclusive chat from L.A with Bollywood Hungama's Devansh Patel.
Could you recall one unforgettable incident from your Tour so far? 
Everyone is talking about Big B, Abhi and Ash on the stage together. The family is incomplete without Jayaji. Is she going to shake a leg too?
