Karan Johar to interview Paris Hilton?

Paris will be coming to India next month, and might feature on KJo’s TV show

Hollywood hottie Paris Hilton is reportedly coming to Mumbai shortly. Her plans are a closely guarded secret, but we’ve learnt that the American hotel heiress will be interviewed by Karan Johar for his TV show. 

We hear KJo will be grilling the 30-year-old when she comes to India next month. Apparently, she wanted to be interviewed by someone of a certain standing, and her agents did their homework and zeroed in on Karan’s “Koffee With Karan” as the biggest celebrity show. A few calls were made and Karan was contacted. KJo agreed to interview her, but the fourth season of his show has already been wrapped up. 

However, since she was keen, he asked the channel if they’d be interested in shooting a special show with the socialite. Given her international celebrity status, they jumped at the opportunity. With Paris’ rise to notoriety starting with a leaked sex tape and going on to many more exploits, including a jail term, Karan will probably have enough to ask too!

A prominent lead actor in Hindi cinema during late 1950s and 1960s, Shammi Kapoor passed away today at 5.15 am. He was suffering from Renal Chronic failure and was admitted at Breach  candy hospital, where he breathed his last. Born on October 21, 1931 in a Punjabi Khatri family, he is an Indian film actor and director.


Shammi Kapoor writes in his own:

This is my real name. Shammi Kapoor is my pet name and I, son of Prithviraj Kapoor, was born on the 21st October 1931, in Bombay. I studied at the New Era School from where I did my Matric. After a short and sweet stay at the Ruia college, I joined my father on the stage in his theatrical company "Prithvi Theatres" as a junior artiste in 1948 on a salary of Rs.50/ per month. I stayed with the theatre till 1952, my last paycheck being Rs.300/.

I signed up as a hero with the Kardar film company, under the direction of Mr. Mahesh Kaul and the film was "Jeevan Jyoti". My first heroine was Chand Usmani.

During the early years, 1952 to 1955, I acted in the following films: "Rail ka Dibba" with Madhubala. "Laila Majnu" with Nutan. "Thokar" with Shyama. "Shama Parvana" with Suraiya. "Hum Sab Chor Hain" with Nalini Jaiwant. Sahil, Tangewali, Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Miss Coca Cola, Mohar, Rangeen Raten, Gul Sanobar, Daku, Coffee House, Naqab, Mirza Sahiban, Chor Bazaar, Sipah Salar and some more nondescript films followed, I remained a male starlet.

I got married in 1955 to the famous film heroine, Geeta Bali. She was an accomplished actress and had established herself as a Star. In 1956 our son Aditya Raj was born.

My first big success came with Tumsa Nahin Dekha which was released in 1957. Between 1957 and 1959 I acted in Dil Deke Dekho, Mujrim, Ujala, Singapore, College Girl, Boy Friend, Basant, Preet Na Jane Reet.

My first COLOR picture Junglee, was released in 1961 and I became a Star. The same year my daughter Kanchan was born.

Between 1960 & 1964 I acted in Professor, China Town, Char Dil Char Rahen, Raat ke Raahi, Dil Tera Diwana, Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya, China Town, Kashmir Ki Kali, Bluff Master, Janwar, Rajkumar.

I got the 1968 Filmfare Award for the best actor for my film Brahmchari.

In 1969 I married Neila Devi of Bhavanagar.

In 1972 my parents expired.

I ventured into a different field of Film Direction for the first time with a film called Manoranjan, adapted from a french play, Irma La Douce (also made by Billy Wilder into a hilarious movie in '62), which starred Sanjeev Kumar and Zeenat Aman. This was an incredible experience but the film met with mediocre success. This was followed by a film with Rajesh Khanna and Sulakshna Pandit called Bundalbaaz. The end result at the box office was miserable.

After this I began doing character roles and some of these are: Zameer, Prem Rog, Hero, Meera, Harjai, Yeh Vada Raha, Aan aur Shaan, Betaab, Ahista Ahista, Parvarish, Daata, Wanted, Rocky , Romance, Mama Bhanja, Ek Jaan Hain Hum, Shalimar, Armaan, Badal, Karmdata, Sohni Mahiwal, Ek se Bhale Do, Biwi O Biwi, Salaakhen, Professor Pyarelal, Ehsaas, Allah Rakha, Desh Premee, Bade Ghar Ki Bahu, Balidaan, Himmat aur Mehnat, Mast Kalander, Ijjazat, Batwaara, Hakumat, Ajooba. I had the opportunity to do some films in other languages such as Bengali and Tamil as well.

In 1982 I got the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor in Vidhaata.

For a short period of time I produced my own Video Entertainment Magazine called "Shammi Kapoor presents Manoranjan". Six volumes have been already released and then I stopped because there were too many people doing the same thing.

In 1995 I got the Filmfare Lifetime Acheivement Award.

My recent releases have been: Khule Aam, Lakshman Rekha, Hum Shakal, Tehelka, Chamatkar, Heer Ranjha, Gardish, Pyar Ka Rog, Megha, Dosti Ki Saugandh, Aaja Meri Jaan and a couple of South films. My latest release is a film called Prem Granth which is directed by my brother late Raj Kapoor's youngest son, Rajiv Kapoor. I am also doing some serials for the TV, the most enduring being a social melodrama called "Chattaan". It ran for more than a year on the Zee Channel.

My most recent films were "Aur Pyar Ho Gaya" with Bobby Deol and Ashwairya Rai and a cameo I did again with Bobby Deol in "Kareeb" which surprised many because they did not expect me to do what I did in the movie. But then that is exactly why I did it. At the moment I am playing Salman Khan's grandfather in a film called "Jaanam Samjha Karo".

Aarakshan Review | Most Awaited Bollywood Movie

Cast: Amitabh Bachchan, Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone, Manoj Bajpayee, Pateik

Directed by Prakash Jha

Rating: ** ½

Films about social issues are like primetime debates on news channels, opinionated yet inconclusive. And even 'Aarakshan' neither takes a firm stand, nor provides the way forward.

The story is about a college principal, Dr Prabhakar Anand (Amitabh Bachchan) who's the 'mai-baap', godfather, Big B of Bhopal. Every second cop, lawyer, bank manager etc falls at his feet, having graduated from his prestigious STM institute. He also believes that charity begins from one's verandah, since his doubles as a free coaching class for weak students who belong to faint income homes. His favourite mentee, Deepak Kumar (Saif Ali Khan), a backward-class individual who owes his education to Dr. Anand, also helps out with the balcony classes, apart from teaching in STS. Anand's daughter, Poorbi (Deepika Padukone) seizes this opportunity to get flirty with her father's obedient disciple and they sing a song to acknowledge their relationship.

Soon, the Supreme Court announces a quota for OBC students that shakes up the city and subsequently, Deepak becomes touchy about the many pokes at his caste. Now, caste-based distinction is no laughing matter but when he begins most of his lines with "Humare logon ne/ ko", it gets a bit tiresome. He ends up in a silly brawl with a student, Sushant (Prateik), who strongly opposes the quota and gets ousted by Dr Anand. And Dr Anand himself quits the institute, as the board nails him for misquoting in the press, something he's unwilling to retract (even though he doesn't strongly believe in it!). He is replaced by the cunningly commercial, Professor Mithilesh Singh (Manoj Bajpayee), who crushes Anand's self respect and tweaks his ego's nose, between devilish grins and chuckles.

Post interval, we move to the second evil: coaching classes that poach school and college teachers. And Mithilesh Singh is the proud owner of KK coaching classes which has one centre every 3 miles, in any direction in Bhopal. Infact, as a last straw, he manages to even convert Dr Anand's home into one of his branches, through a foolish turn of events.

The film lives up to every filmy stereotype from this point on, as Dr Anand plans to avenge his shattered image. His million-dollar idea: move into milkman's 'tabela', teach underprivileged kids and just about anyone who believes in free lunches, bring KK Classes' stock down. Predictably, Anand's 'tabela' classes does becomes the talk of the town, and some of the cows in the shed almost plan a sequel to 'Cows with guns'. The rest of the story is as dry as fodder.

Bachchan carries this movie throughout, and just like in the film, the distributers and investors of this film should fall at his feet for his contributions. Bajpayee's character is deliciously dark, a fistful of his hair drooping over his forehead isn't. It would be politically incorrect to comment on whether Saif played a flawless 'Dalit' or not, so, short pause, let's move on. Deepika is brilliantly bright and charming but even she has her share of monologues that could put you to snooze. Prateik continues to have a squeaky hormonal voice, comparable to a child who's denied a candy.

Shankar-Ehsan-Loy drum up a mediocre fare for the ears, with 'Acha Lagta Hai' clearly scoring over 'Mauka', which seems right out of the 80s. Prakash Jha has always thrown a mirror at society without caring about how it would be received or whether people are prepared for it. This one, however, seems like a more calculated, pre-meditated, marketable proposition.

Should the underprivileged be uplifted through reservation or will that rob the deserving privileged from claiming their merit? Can we take a call on something so serious with popcorn crunching inside our mouth? I couldn't.
