Has Vivek Oberoi been signed for Season 3 of 'Swayamvar', the reality show at a TV channel that had earlier roped in Rakhi Sawant and Rahul Mahajan for Season 1 and Season 2 respectively?
That's the buzz going around the B-town for the week gone by. While sources have claimed that Vivek is a hot contender for the show, considering his single status and popularity amongst women, the fact is something entirely different. The actor, who has seen a new lease to his professional career post Prince, is in no mood to tie the knot in near future, least of all on a reality show.
"This is as ridiculous as it gets", says a source close to Vivek, "There is no truth to the entire story and is imaginative as it gets. Earlier there were names like Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni spoken around. Then there were some other lesser names also that came in. Now all of a sudden Vivek's name has cropped up. It isn't even funny to be laughed away."
A 'news' like this comes at the time when Vivek is looking forward to his upcoming assignment like Ram Gopal Varma's Rakta Charitra, Part I of which is aiming for a September release. After that, there is also a Mani Ratnam film which is pretty much on the anvil.
No wonder, conspiracy theories are being discussed in hush-hush tone. Last 12 months had seen an upswing in Vivek's career with first Kurbaan and then Prince lighting up the scene for him. Just when the actor had got through the 'let bygones be bygones' phase and moved on to concentrate entirely on his work and refused to get into any personal conversations, a news piece like 'Swayamvar' stands out like a sore thumb.
While Vivek refused to comment on the entire 'issue', one wonders whether his silence has yet again made him a soft target for media as well as industry alike? What can be said for sure though is that there is lot more he can be expected to talk about once his film comes closer to release. After all Ramu's gritty reel world of Rakta Charitra inspired from real life can be expected to make for a far better outing than 'Swayamvar' where the difference between real and reel world could be considerably blurred!

Saurabh Narang, the man who had directed Sushmita Sen starrer Vaastu Shastra (2004) has passed away. He was battling stomach cancer for last few months and breathed his last today morning. He was in Sri Lanka where he was undergoing treatment.
Barely in his 30s, he started off quite young in the industry when he bagged an opportunity to direct one of the first horror films coming from the house of Ram Gopal Varma - Vaastu Shastra. The film was a moderate success. Narang was looking at making a comeback by directing a new film. As per reports, the film was titled Return Gift and was supposed to star Rajeev Khandelwal.
Many of his friends from the industry were shocked to hear about his demise though they were aware about his battle for cancer. Filmmakers like Sudhir Mishra, Suparn Verma, Shivajee Chandrabhushan and Sachin Khot were especially fond of him.
Acknowledged as being one of the nicest young filmmakers in the industry, his demise is being mourned. His body would be brought to Delhi and subsequently the last rites would be held.

Katrina Kaif seems to have really enjoyed the experience of working with Farah Khan in her directorial venture Tees Maar Khan, so much so that the actress wanted no one else but Farah to direct her in a forthcoming commercial.
Katrina was supposed to shoot a commercial for Etihad Airways (of which she has been appointed the brand ambassador recently) and when asked whom we she would want as the director, Katrina immediately suggested Farah's name.
Now Katrina (who is shooting in Spain for Zoya Akhtar's film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara) and Farah (who is in Mumbai) will meet at Abu Dhabi to shoot the commercial. The ad will be shot at Etihad's airport lounge at Abu Dhabi.

Around this time last year, the whole world had come to an instant standstill. The moon had stopped glowing, the sun stopped shining, the stars stopped twinkling, the birds stopped chirping, and the winds stopped swaging, so on and so forth... The reason? Well, the King of Music, Michael Jackson had passed away from this world.
Yesterday was his first death anniversary. And to mark this occasion, Bollywood's very own 'Bling King' Bappi Lahiri released two singles composed in the honour of the late great Michael Jackson. He released the two tracks, viz., 'Don't Say Goodbye' and 'Michael O' Michael', which is incidentally a remix. In a very noble gesture, Bappi has pledged to donate royalty earned from the tracks to the underprivileged children in Maharashtra.
Some Bappi-ism that! We miss you Michael! Source: http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/2010/06/26/14294/index.html
