The most common thing I have heard people say after a great evening is, “Hey, that was fun! Let’s do that again sometime!” To seek the repeat of a pleasurable event is the weakness of human kind and marketing honchos all over the world have used that sensation-seeking instinct in us to a great advantage. Make it a pleasurable experience the first time and they will come again.

I was on Twitter and was getting used to broadcasting my thoughts and agenda on the world wide web. Though it is a bit tough to do in the beginning, one does get used to it. It started with one hate response and very soon I realised that there were less good things that people had to say to me and a whole load of hurtful things, and of that a lot was personal in nature.

I am in Copenhagen. The temperature outside is minus five and we are looking for the locations for my next 3D film which will be India’s first action film to be shot on exotic Scandinavian locales. Sounds like an advert, does it not? Well, if I don’t keep telling myself that then I keep asking myself why the hell am I doing this.

To do anything in this place is difficult, but to do something new is even more difficult or rather difficult, plus the minimum requirement to tolerate everyone that stands up to discourage you.

This week belongs to a very different film called Dhobi Ghat and the chatter around it.

I have been shooting day in and out and have been keeping really long hours. So I have been a tad out of touch with the entertainment news and the happenings in Bollywood. Therefore I was a little taken aback when the story of Onir molesting a male actor at his house came to me. “Onir?” I asked. “Apna Onirban?” “Yes, Yes, Yes!”

Amisha and I have a common friend, actually she is more Amisha’s friend than mine and I met her when I was with Amisha. Her name is Shalini and she lives in New York. So, on a trip to New York whilst Amisha was busy shopping, Shalu, as we call her, and I were having some corn on the cob and discussing life when the

I love this one. A wife tells her obese husband to hit the gym and get into shape. The husband yawns and shoots back that he is very much in shape. Round is a shape! Cracks me up but also makes me fall in love with the attitude. I remember meeting Kangna when she first came into the industry. She looked a little ill at ease but then I

While doing some research on the subject of art versus entertainment, I came to this very interesting website called www.angelfire.com and read these priceless nuggets there and thought they would be fantastic to start a debate on the subject.

Baby, look at me, and tell me what you see
You ain’t seen the best of me yet
Give me time I’ll make you forget the rest
I got more in me, and you can set it free
I can catch the moon in my hand
Don’t you know who I am?
