Varun Dhawan confesses!

Varun Dhawan dissects his characteristics and tells you what makes him the coolest kid on the block. He also confesses of being moody. Read on...

What kind of films have you grown up watching? Did you have an epiphany or did always want to become an actor?
I grew up watching all kinds of films. It’s only natural because my dad (David Dhawan) is a director. I didn’t have an epiphany as such, but I remember watching a lot of American psycho movies during college. It was around that time that my passion strengthened and I started dreaming of becoming an actor.

Are you an outright romantic or would you rather play it cool and easy?
I think I am moody, so I can’t really say that I am romantic or chilled out. But that has an advantage. I want to explore different genres as I go ahead in my career, so the more mysterious I remain, the better.

Does female attention unnerve you?
No, it doesn’t.

Are you very style-conscious? Do you invest time and effort when you have to step out for a party?
Not too much, but I do put in a lot of effort when I’m shooting for getting the look of the film right. When I’m going out with my friends I really don’t take any effort to dress up.

Your latest ad is pretty quirky. Does it reflect your sensibility in any way?
It does reflect my sensibility actually. I tried Gatsby for the first time when I was a teenager. So when they approached me, the memory of my school days came flooding back. Those days, I’d gel my hair sometimes to look cool. The best part is you can use it anywhere, anytime and you are sorted for the day. I love it!

You are already counted as a youth icon. Would you like your give you fans a few style tips?
Just be yourself and let your personality reflect your style.

Speaking on the occasion, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan said, “Meeting various L'Oréal Paris celebrities at Cannes is what I look forward to. I met Natasha Poly for the first time and she is a new mother so we connected that way. With each spokesperson it’s a different connection.”  

Manashi Guha, General Manager- L’Oréal Paris said, “Together they represent the diversity that is L’Oréal Paris. We believe there is no one single notion of beauty and that whatever the color of your skin or hair, we are all worth it.”

According to official sources Aishwarya Rai will now represent L'Oréal Paris on 20th and 21st of May at Cannes. Ash had missed her first appearance this year due to an unexpected ATC strike in France.

Suchitra Krishnamoorthi Calls Gul Panag A 'Cleavage Flasher'

Suchitra Krishnamoorthi (left) apologized for her 'cleavage flasher' tweet and said that she was not attacking Gul Panag

No sooner had the Lok Sabha election results been announced on Friday did barbs begin to fly on twitter, with a particularly tasteless salvo fired by Suchitra Krishnamoorthi at AAP candidate Gul Panag.

Krishnamoorthi put out a tweet (later deleted) that read, 'ofcourse Kirron Kher would win over Gul Panag. India needs strong women & mothers not cleavage flashers'.

Her tweet was swiftly condemned by users who called it 'ridiculous beyond belief', 'terrible' and 'dumb', among other things. Even Sonam Kapoor jumped to Gul Panag's defence, calling Suchitra's tweet 'disgusting'.

The curious case of Sunny Leone Filmfare meets up with the hot Sunny Leone armed with questions sent by our readers

After Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan, she is the most searched celebrity on the Internet. Though she’s a household name, her name is taken in whispers. Her films and item numbers sound an alarm bell for the Censor Board and celebration for the viewers. If Jism 2 was not enough, Sunny Leone set the mercury rising with Ragini MMS 2. Such is her popularity that our mails and social networking sites were flooded with questions when the word got out that she was being interviewed. So Filmfare decided to get your questions answered. You ask, she answers…

Given your bold past do filmmakers seek your consent for bold scenes ?
Siddiqui, Mumbai
Yes, I do read the script. If the script demands bold scenes, then I do them. Jism 2 and Ragini MMS 2 required intimate sequences. No director has asked me to romance my co-star on the spot.

Aren’t you wary of being objectified?
Parul Sachdev, Hyderabad
Even actors are objectified. We are products. But what we do as actors is not something real, it’s fictional. The whole notion of being objectified is blown out of proportion.

Initially, you found it difficult to procure a house in Mumbai because people had a problem with your past. Is that true?
Sahil Bhatia, Bengaluru
That’s a complete lie. No one had an issue with me. The real story is that my father-in-law had to undergo a bypass surgery. So my husband Daniel (Weber) and I immediately flew to California. We put our house hunt on pause because family comes first. This made people presume that there was an issue with my profession, which was false.


Do you think doing Jackpot was a mistake?
Reena Singh, Kolkata
Jackpot was a mistake. The film bombed. The script was brilliant when I read it. But as actors we can’t take charge of everything.
I can’t pinpoint mistakes.

If you had a daughter and she wants to be an adult film actor as well?
Deepak Saigal, Delhi
I’d be completely lying if I said I wouldn’t be shocked. I’d like her to be educated first. But who am I to stop her? I can’t be a hypocrite. I won’t be happy though. Daniel might even get a heart attack.

Would you endorse a fairness product?
Samir Mendpara, Gujarat
I don’t believe in a fairness products because in California people want to get darker and darker. They spend so much time getting tanned. It’s surprising to see people using fairness creams in India.


A lot was spoken about your lesbian scene in Ragini MMS 2, but it was a mere kiss?
Vinod Jain, Agra
The kiss was blown out of proportion. To sum it up in one line, the lesbian kiss wasn’t something crazy for me.

Is it difficult to resist temptation in the glam world?
Swati Chopra, Punjab
I believe in monogamy. And my husband is the hottest man I know. I have a crush on him and I get to wake up next to him every morning. I’ll never find someone as attractive as Daniel.

Farah Khan said that she would have a gay encounter with you at gun-point on Koffee With Karan. Your take?
Delzeen Irani, Mumbai
I take it as a compliment. It’s great that I’m on top of her list when she thinks of a gay encounter. Usually, I feel shy when girls hit on me, though it doesn’t sound normal coming from me!

Akshay filmed many high octane chases along the Bosphorus strait and seems to be warming up for one in the shot in this picture.

Hugh Jackman Expects More Bouts of Skin Cancer

Hugh Jackman says he will probably have many more skin cancerous growths following the removal of a second one from his nose.

The 45-year-old Australian actor spoke Tuesday while in Beijing to promote his latest movie, "X-Men: Days of Future Past."

Jackman had a basal-cell carcinoma removed last week. Basal-cell carcinoma is a slow-growing form of skin cancer. Jackman was treated for the same disease last year.

He told The Associated Press: "I'm realistic about the future and it's more than likely that I'll have at least one more but probably many more." He added: "But the beauty of this is it's all preventable, it's just about getting proper check-ups."

Jackman also suggested the next X-Men movie scheduled for release in 2017 wouldn't be his last.
