Deepika Padukone Latest Photoshoot

Handsome and talented with a wonderful family and beautiful girlfriend, Deepika Padukone, life seems pretty darn good for Ranbir Kapoor these days. As he celebrates his 27th birthday today, who will he be spending his special day with and what does the man who has it all want as a gift?

Well, he will be having dinner with mummy and papa, Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh and then? Well who Ranbir doesn’t know “I have no idea what Deepika has planned for me. I haven’t seen her for a few days because I have been in Bhopal and she was in Mumbai. However, I hope it isn’t too big a surprise because even she knows how reserved I am.”

As for his dream birthday gift?

Ranbir told a daily, “Of course, I want the usual things like super-success for my film, good luck and happiness. The perfect birthday gift for me each year is the same. I want good health and immense happiness for my parents. Nothing else can make me happier.”

However, the actor has a special wish this year; his film, Karan Johar’s Wake Up Sid, opens on Friday and Ranbir says, “The best gift I can ask for this year is that everyone goes to see my film.” Smiling he adds, “I don’t know how to hardsell myself or my film but I can surely request people to see it.”

How can we refuse such a polite request?

Happy Birthday Ranbir!

MUST SEE - Lara dutta looking stunning at GQ Men Awards

Lara Dutta looked ravishing in a BCBG gown at the GQ Man of the Year Awards. She carried a Giuseppe Zanotti clutch while keeping her accessories to minimum – just diamond earrings and a bracelet. I must say Abhay Deol looks equally good as an arm candy ;)

Deepika Padukone @ Lakme Fashion Week - Looking Beautiful As Always

Bollywood romanced with fashion on Day 4 of Lakme Fashion Week when stars like Deepika Padukone, Sushmita Sen, Amrita Rao, Malaika Arora Khan descended on the ramp. Business was sluggish but back-to back shows added excitement and zest to the event. Three Gen Next designers, Imcha Imchen and Paromita Banerjee, Neha Agarwal showcased their collection and proved their mettle as emerging designers to watch out for.

Gorgeous Deepika Padukone with her extra appeal looks stunning when she walked on the ramp at ongoing Lakme Fashion Week to showcase the creation of Gauri Nainika. She looks gorgeous in a gown wear by her at cat walk. Check out Deepika Padukone hot pictures.

Shruti Hassan - FHM India Photoshoot

“I was deeply inspired by the theme of the film,” confesses Shruti who’s shot a promotional video album which carries the essence of the hard-hitting film. “The idea was certainly unique. The film provided a lot of scope for enchanting music,” she remarks.

A trained musician, Shruti says she composed a couple of numbers keeping the audience in mind. “If we had a duet, it should have been shot between Kamal Haasan and Venkatesh. Doing the background score was challenging though,” she avers.

After a cameo in Hey Ram and a Bollywood debut (Luck) that didn’t woo the BO, does Shruti feel let down? “I have no regrets. I was satisfied with my role in Luck, and I am proud of the film. The fact that the film didn’t do well can’t take away my hard work,” she says with a nonchalant shrug.

Day 1 of Lakme Fashion Week 2009

Brownie delight
Sabyasachi Mukherjee seemed to be in a very good mood on Day 1 as he checked out several collections at the stalls. He was also distributing brownies to anyone and everyone he knew! Trying to earn brownie points, what say Sabya?

The show must go on
Anita Dongre certainly is one tough woman. One has to acknowledge her courage and determination to go ahead with her show despite the fact that she had lost her father just the day before the fashion week. Putting on a brave face, she confidently walked alongside the models in her creations and smiled for the cameras. When we caught up with her backstage, she had this to say, "I think the show has to go on. As a professional who had already made this commitment, I couldn't possibly back out at the last minute. In fact, I had to come down for some refittings after my father's funeral. But I must thank my team and my family for supporting me during such a time."

Wings on stage
The first show of the day saw Dia Mirza do some hand stretches on the ramp, then we had Tamara Moss flaunt her big bell sleeves and Candice Pinto do a little jig in a Malini Ramani creation. Nice, some drama breaks the monotony of the click and whirl of the looms.

Trend-spotting
Day 1 at the Lakme Fashion week was cold as ice -- no celebrities, no impressive front row. However in the dullness we found some gold. Yes, restaurateur AD Singh and model Asif were spotted wearing a gold hoop earring on their right ear at the last show. With the black suit, it really attracted our eye. We like!

Fashion help!
One of the most successful creations of Shantanu & Nikhil has to be the tie-up front satin gown. The designers must have sold them in bulk in all possible hues. We saw Sangita Kathiwada wear this outfit which is seen even more than the number of years Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge ran for. Please fashionistas, do us a small favour and move on.
