While Salman Khan seems to be taking time deciding whether to get married or not, his little sister Arpita Khan seems to be wasting none of hers.
She has reportedly earlier dated actor Arjun Kapoor and model Nihar Pandya, and now reports claim that she may have secretly got engaged to her current beau, newcomer Aayush Sharma.

Reports are further claiming that the two have met each other's families with both sides apparently approving the match. Arpita's family has expressed a liking for Aayush while his mother has done the same for Arpita.

Not only that, the two may have even taken a trip to Shimla together along with their families. Could this news have possibly triggered those rumours. Time shall lay down the truth.

Salman Khan's a family to me: Subhash Ghai

Subhash Ghai informs that a film with the actor is on the cards
MAfter a break of six years (Yuvraaj in 2008) Subhash Ghai is directing a film with newcomers Mishti and Kartik Tiwari. While the film is set to release this month Ghai is already working on his next, a love story with Salman Khan. Here he talks about his films, heroes and cine fraternity...
Has Salman agreed to workin your next film?
We both have agreed to work together and announce the dates only once script is locked. Salman has told me that he would work with me even if Kaanchi doesn't work at the box-office. He is family to me.
Will your next film be again a love story?
Yes, I will go for a love story. It provides me lot of music and dance. Kaanchi provides love, action, drama with rural and metro touch.
Why did you decide to make Kaanchi with newcomers?
After the multi-starrer Yuvraaj, I realised not to run after stars but make a film, that I want to make as I made in the past, which are still fresh after 20 years. I have the talent, a good story to tell on screen provided I control all creatives and discipline of making a good movie. So I decided to make Kaanchi with a new cast.
Can you tell us what Kaanchi is about?
Apart from good music, it has a great story and emotions which the youth of today will identify with. I have a song written by Irshad Kamil which says sare jahan se achcha woh hindustan kahaan hain and is relevant to the politics of today.
Though the film is with newcomers apparently the budget of Kaanchi is as lavish and high as a big star cast one would be...
I can never compromise on the quality of filmmaking. As I never did in new stars movies like Hero or any movie with less selling stars like Pardes Taal and Kisna. Kaanchi has been an expensive film for my company but I am sure they will recover it and be proud of it.
Is it true that for Kaanchi first you had approached Salman, then Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik and when they all refused you went for newcomers.
Not for Kaanchi, but before Kaanchi I was talking to all stars but not with any concrete script or proposal. I was just trying to know their mood and situations. I felt they were over committed to focus on my movie. I always cast those stars who are equally keen and compatible to my workings.
Do you feel disillusioned sometimes that you made the career of so many stars and yet they are not there for your films today?
Not for a minute. They are in a different space today and I must respect that. We still enjoy a relationship of mutual love and respect. I have a huge capacity of grooming new stars so I am enjoying my space. Making a film with newcomers is a big high than making blockbusters with stars which is a luxury.
Where did you discover Mishti?
After auditioning 300 girls for six months I had given up if I would make kaanchitill I met Mishti through my chief assistant director Arindum Ray.
Mishti looks a younger version of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Sneha Ullal...
It's not true. We have a habit of comparing a newly born baby to someone we know.
Rishi Kapoor and Mithun Chakroborty are doing songs in Kaanchi. Have you roped in other senior actors too?
Not except these two. Mahima Chowdhary comes in a part of a song kambal ke neeche
Why do you sign your heroines or name them with letter M (except Aishwarya)?
It's just a co-incidence.

Salman Khan to perform daring stunts in Poland


Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has arrived in Poland to shoot the climax of his upcoming movie "Kick". The film is said to have many daring scenes.
The Polish capital Warsaw has been selected for its tall buildings and many river bridges. The tallest building in Warsaw is the Palace of Culture, which was built as a gift by Soviet leader, Joseph Stalin, in the early 1950s.
For Sajid Nadiadwala's directorial debut, Salman will apparently jump from Gdanski bridge on the river Vistula and there will be a helicopter crash scene also.
"We have been urging Bollywood producers and directors to use Poland for their outdoor shooting for the past three years. Now they have seen the virtue of using Poland's natural beauty, which is no less than Switzerland," said Monika Kapil Mohta, Indian ambassador to Poland.

"Poland is a business-friendly country and people are also appreciating Bollywood movies in a big number. Shah Rukh Khan is a well known figure and now Salman may become the next famous (Bollywood) star in Poland," added Kapil Mohta.
Nine years ago, Aamir Khan, Kajol and Suniel Shetty had come to shoot the climax of Yash Raj Films' "Fanna", which was directed by Kunal Kohli. They shot it during the harsh winter in the Tatra mountains.
Currently it's spring time in Warsaw and shooting will be much easier. The city authorities are doing their best to co-operate with the film ("Kick") unit. The bulk of the technical staff will be Polish.
After 10 days, Nadiadwala will bring his unit of 70 people to shoot the film with Randeep Hooda and Sri Lankan actress Jacqueline Fernandez.
Earlier this month, Ketan Mehta of "Mirch Masala" fame visited Poland to select locales for his next film.
Satisfied with the facilities available here, he said: "Poland is a remarkable country and its famous directors such as Andrzej Wajda and Roman Polynski have impressed us greatly. Poland also has well equipped studios and film institutes. The cost of shooting is much cheaper than other European countries."
The Indo-Polish Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IPCCI) under the leadership of J.J. Singh has also been championing the cause of Poland before Bollywood producers all these years.
"Finally there is some light outside the tunnel," said Singh.

Salman Khan’s father Salim Khan launches Urdu website on Modi


MUMBAI: Noted Bollywood scriptwriter and superstar Salman Khan's father Salim Khan launched an Urdu website on BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Wednesday. While launching the website to which he would regularly contribute with his pieces, Khan said that he was an admirer of Modi, but will vote for the Congress. 

"Modi is an open-minded person, but I am a loyal voter of the Congress. Through my friend Zafar Sareshwala, I had suggested Modi that he starts a website in Urdu too. I am glad he accepted this suggestion," said Khan whom BJP leader Shaina NC and businessman Sareshwala accompanied at the time of the website's launch. 

When asked if the website in Urdu amidst Lok Sabha poll was part of Modi's attempt to woo Muslims, Khan clarified: "Urdu is not the language of Muslims alone. Even today many non-Muslims in Punjab use this beautiful language." 

Shaina NC too denied if it was aimed to get Muslim votes. "Salim saab is one of the finest writers and a great lover of Urdu. The fact that Modiji agreed to a website in Urdu only proves his inclusive approach and he wants to reach out to every section of the society. 

The website will be interactive where readers can ask Modi questions and give their comments too," explained Shaina. Ahmedabad-based Sareshwala added that Urdu website would help dispel many misunderstandings about Modi as well as Urdu.
