Salman prefers Rani over Lara Dutta at 10 ka Dum

Lara Dutta has lost a lot of weight. She looks very slim but a bit tired. She had an interesting tale to tell on 10 Ka Dum about having watched Salman Khan’s debut film, Maine Pyaar Kiya many times. Not because she was a Salman fan but because she was forced to go along with her elder sister and her boyfriend on their dates. She was only ten years old then. Lara Dutta has worked with Sallu in the movie Partner directed by David Dhawan which was a big hit. Salman may not have liked the fact that she had watched the film for reasons other than him for he quickly retorted that makes you thirty three. He reserved all his hugs and kisses for Rani who made no bones about being a Sallu fan. Count the number of times she pulled his cheeks.

Abhishek Bachchan is Salman Khan’s new source of inspiration...

Abhishek Bachchan is formally Salman Khan’s new source of inspiration. After extending an emerald branch to his ex-girlfriend’s partner, Salman is going a footstep further to make an impression to the Jr. Bachchan.

Abhishek Bachchan has offered him (Salman Khan) to paint his picture from his upcoming movie Drona. Salman has also gifted one Raj Kapoor’s painting to Ranbir Kapoor earlier and now one more time he is going to use his talent to be the victor over another filmstar.
Let’s hope he doesn’t make the same offer to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan else it will be somewhat a ‘PAIN’ting for her.

Deepika spends time with ex-boyfriend while Ranbir is away for shooting.

While Ranbir Kapoor is out for shoot in Ooty, his lovely girl friend Deepika Padukone shares a mealtime with her ex-boyfriend Nihar Pandya. The two also had spent a long time in a room conversation and giving out a stress-free space at a restaurant in Mumbai.

According to an eye witness nearby at the restaurant, Deepika and Nihar came in late afternoon after most of the customers had left. They sat in one corner of the restaurant and were there for almost two hours.

It seems that the much in love couple, Deepika-Ranbir share the same situation. Rumor mill has it that recently while Deepika was out of town, Ranbir attended a celebration with his dear friend Sonam Kapoor. The two were so engaged in talking to each other that they had no time for anyone else!

According to the source Nihar Pandya is currently dating Salman Khan’s kid sister Arpita. And Sonam prefers dating a man who is as charming as Salman. That’s some Salman connection!

Looks like when Deepika and Ranbir are away from each other, they call for their dear friends to indulge their conceit.
