Shahrukh loves Priyanka Chopra’s voice
Bollywood beauty Priyanka Chopra is on cloud nine these days, as the actress has found a real devotee in none other than megastar Shahrukh Khan. SRK lately praised Priyanka Chops at a media event for the promotion of ‘My Name Is Khan’.The actor said, Priyanka is one of the finest actresses of this generation. Five years down the line, Priyanka will still be on top. She has marvelous appeal as an actress and her voice and delivery is terrific.” “Priyanka is disciplined, talented and a very professional girl. I’m fond of her,” SRK further said.
On the other hand, Priyanka says, “I’m Shah Rukh’s most ardent fan. When I was younger, my parents would have to put on ‘Chamatkar’ for me, if they wanted me to eat my food. I have seen the movie at least 35 times.” “I can’t speak to SRK by his name, and I don’t want to call him ‘Sir’ because I think that is too formal. Also the truth is, when SRK is around, I’m normally speechless. Seeing my icon in flesh has that effect on me,” Priyanka Chopra addsPriyanka caught in Amrita’s outfit!
Priyanka Chopra was recently caught in Amrita Rao’s dress! No, that’s not quite it. She was caught wearing an outfit similar to one that Amrita wore some days ago. And what’s more –both dresses come from the same designer –Swapnil Shinde.Priyanka wore the outfit for a party on Friday. Meanwhile, Amrita had worn the same outfit on TV ten days ago. Priyanka is probably unaware of the goof-up.
Swapnil confirmed that the outfit that Priyanka was wearing was by him and that she had liked it a lot, as her stylist called him up to tell him that she was complimented for that dress a lot. He also added that Priyanka called him up asking him for an outfit and he had about three or four gold outfits ready. He confirmed that even Amrita’s outfit was by him. But he denies the outfits being the same. He simply states that the outfits have a similar design.
Now, we’re not so sure this is going to go down very well with Priyanka, even though she hasn’t commented on the issue.Amrita remarked that Priyanka probably was unaware that they both had the same outfit or even if she knew, it didn’t matter to her as she looks like a diva, no matter what’s she’s wearing.

Priyanka and Shahid are back together
It is true. If a couple gets back together after a break-up, the relationship is for keeps. And Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor are just rediscovering the joys of being together after their split, and they are happier than ever. As reported earlier (’Shasha shuts out PC’; November 10, Hitlist), the couple went their separate ways last month.Soon after the split, the duo headed to Bangkok for film shoots. While PC was there for Sajid Nadiadwala’s next, Shahid was on call for a Yash Raj film. During their stay at the same hotel, they bumped into each other and realised that they could not do without each other.
Source close to the two reveals that Shahid, who’d initiated ‘the break’ realised that he’d made a mistake. He found that he still had feelings for Priyanka. He felt that he rushed into the decision and hadn’t taken the time to understand her better. He knew he wanted her back in his life but wasn’t too sure how she would react to him because he’d ‘dumped’ her when she believed all along that they were perfect for each other. Shahid befriended Chopra’s best friend and close confidante, Tammana Sharma, who played Cupid between them the second time around. The source says, “Shahid and Tammana have become good friends now. In fact, she was, in a way, responsible for getting the lovebirds back together.
Shahid was already in Bangkok shooting for a film, while PC reached there a week later. They were at different locations but got a chance to sit down and talk things out. They went out on two occasions including dining out.” Giving their relationship another chance has perked up PC who was quite depressed when things went downhill.”She is happy to have Shahid back in her life. They are very happy together.” Time to say, ‘touch wood’?

She is selecting her films after a lot of consideration; Priyanka Chopra won’t make wrong moves. She is all set to play the wife of seven husbands in Vishal Bharadwaj’s next film.
As a tabloid reported, in the film Priyanka plays an Anglo-Indian woman who has seven husbands and eventually kills them all. The film is based on a short story by Ruskin Bond. “It’s Priyanka’s toughest role to date. Her character is extremely volatile. It will be an out-and-out thriller,” a source is quoted to have said.
In fact, Vishal who is repeating PC for the second film wants her to look simple, like the way she did in Kaminey. The movie is going to be Vishal’s first woman-centric film and no doubt he has given Priyanka a film that many actresses would love to grab without thinking twice.
Celebrated writer Ruskin Bond along with Vishal is writing the screenplay for the film. And as revealed by the tabloid, according to the movie’s yet-not-finalized script, PC will come up with ingenious ways of killing her seven husbands and “an overdose of viagra will bump one of her old husbands off.”
The film goes on the floors next year. Well, the tit-bits sound interesting; can’t wait for the full show!

Playing the title role, Hrithik Roshan will however not be romancing Priyanka Chopra in this one, our sources claims.Sources further reveal, “Roshan Sr. who will be directing the film apart from producing it, is considering Deepika Padukone to play the lead, although there has been no confirmation. While the first film in the series Koi Mil Gaya had Preity Zinta in the lead opposite Hrithik, Krrish featured Priyanka Chopra. There are no plans for her to return, so it remains to be seen who would step into the leading lady’s role.”
It is also believed that Roshan Sr. has had early discussions with the SFX team and a big crew of foreign technicians who worked on Krrish. They have been bouncing off ideas on where to take the character and how to develop it.?Letting us in the secret, our source further reveals that Rakesh has zeroed down on a plotline where Krrish battles his evil counterpart in the sequel. Apparently, Rakesh is keen on having Hrithik play a grey character ever since he saw his performance in Dhoom 2. Krrish will be seen saving the 7 wonders of the world, which makes a perfect foil to include extensive shots of diverse foreign locations.
Hrithik will also undergo vigorous physical training for the role. He has completed Kites, which is all set for release next year. He is currently shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish with Aishwarya Bachchan.
Priyanka Chopra gets a roly-poly superstar for a Husband
Guess who is playing delicate darling Priyanka Chopra’s husband in her new film? Well, it’s none other than Malayalam cinema’s megastar Mohanlal Vishwanathan Nair. Interesting no? Well, latest news has it that that director Vishal Bharadwaj, whose creativity is at its peak post-‘Kaminey,’ is thinking so differently that his experimentations are turning out to be a shocker. The director has signed the bulky Malayalam star opposite dainty Priyanka in his new film, ‘Seven’.
‘Seven’ is Bhardwaj’s very ambitious project, in which Priyanka will have seven husbands. But Mohanlal as Priyanka’s husband is too hilarious to go unnoticed.
A reliable source from Bhardwaj’s office confirmed the news to a news daily. He said that the filmmaker had cast the Malayalam actor in such a role. And Bharadwaj had his share of woes in casting the actor as he spent two days in Kerala chasing the super-busy Mohanlal.
The chubby actor, who was also seen Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Company’ and ‘Aag’, has given his consent for the film. So, Priyanka has got one ‘huge’ husband already, now six more to go…

Sources close to Priyanka have said that the actress who hasn’t been keeping well in the recent past is devastated by Shahid’s decision.
Priyanka is looking for peace and visited Ajmer Sharif last week with her friends who are rallying behind her.Shahid’s decision to part ways is being attributed to inherent differences in their nature. While Shahid is a introvert and reserved, Priyanka is extrovert and loves to party. Shahid also had problems with her fondness for alcohol.
The couple never publicly admitted to being together although they were too close to be just friends. Shahid has been finding it hard to be in a strong relationship ever since Kareena Kapoor dumped more than two years ago.
