Moist eyed Bollywood says 26 11 taught unity to Mumbai

Bollywood celebrities say 26/11 was an event that united Mumbai residents and should never be forgotten. Be it Akshay Kumar 
they all look back at the terror attacks a year ago with sorrow and remember those who lost their lives.
Akshay Kumar: It's unfortunate that something like this happened. My wife Twinkle was there at the Taj that day. Fortunately, she had left the premise at around 6 p.m. A few positive things that happened after the unfortunate incidents are the unity of people in the city. We all should never forget this and always be united to fight back.

Get well soon: Akshay tells Katrina  

New Delhi, Nov 25 (IANS) Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif is down with jaundice and missing from the promotions for her latest outing "De Dana Dan". And her co-star Akshay Kumar was prompt in wishing her speedy recovery.

Rumours were rife that the actress was rushed to Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai Monday night, where she was diagnosed with jaundice and has been advised complete bed rest for a while.

Asked if it were true, Akshay said: "Katrina is down with jaundice... We are missing her and hope she gets well soon."

Apparently "De Dana Dan" is Akshay and Katrina's sixth outing together after movies like "Hum Ko Deewana Kar Gaye" and back to back hits like "Namastey London", "Welcome" and "Singh Is Kinng". They also starred recently in underwater thriller "Blue". 

Akshay, who has had a string of flops this year with "Chandni Chowk To China", "8x10 Tasveer", "Kambakkht Ishq" and "Blue", is now keeping his fingers crossed for "De Dana Dan".

"Our chemistry does work and we've seen the results in 'Singh Is Kinng' and other films and we expect the same from this film too. This movie should do very well and I expect great returns for my producers. I have great expectations from this one," he said.

Akshay was here at the DT Cinema multiplex in Vasant Kunj to promote the movie with his co-stars Suniel Shetty, Neha Dhupia, Sameera Reddy and producer Sunil. A. Lulla.

Directed by Priyadarshan, "De Dana Dan" has also been produced by Ganesh and Girish Jain. It also stars Paresh Rawal in an important role.

I ll be there to guide any damsel in distress Akshay Kumar

I'll be there to guide any damsel in distress: Akshay Kumar 
By Joginder Tuteja

Mumbai, Nov 23 (IANS) He worked with them when they were new to the film industry and gave back-to-back hits but Akshay Kumar refuses to take credit for Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra's success. The actor says he will always lend a helping hand to newcomers if they need it.

"I am extremely happy to be their (Katrina and Priyanka) mentors but then they are free agents. They owe nothing to any one. They got where they are because they are talented. I saw it in them and that's why I wanted to work with them. I am no guru," Akshay told IANS in an interview.

"I don't make it a hobby to help heroines. I wait and I watch and I will of course be there to guide any damsel in distress. However, a 'Katrina' doesn't walk by a film set everyday. They are one in a million for a reason," the star said.

Together, Akshay and Katrina have given super hits like "Singh Is Kinng" and "Welcome". While "Namastey London" was also successful, their first film together "Hum Ko Deewana Kar Gaye" was a decent box office grosser.

On the other hand Akshay has a cent percent success rate with Priyanka as well with hits like "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi", "Waqt - Race Against Time", "Aitraaz" and "Andaaz".

The latest Akshay and Katrina starrer "De Dana Dan" is now ready to hit the screens. The actress has time and again said that she consented to act in a film by Priyadarshan mainly due to Akshay.

"Yes, I know about that. 'De Dana Dan' isn't going to better her career. But yes, it is just good for her to work in different environments. A movie like this is a first for her. She still needs to touch every aspect of her audience and she knows it," said Akshay.

"I know when Katrina says she's doing it for me, it means she respects me enough to say yes to something without question. There aren't any questions around the script etc... It's a plain and simple talk of 'Yes Akshay, when do you need me?'."

Both Katrina and Priyanka have given hits with other actors too. In 2009, Priyanka teamed up with Shahid Kapoor in the successful dark thriller "Kaminey".

Katrina, on the other hand, was seen with John Abraham in "New York". Directed by Kabir Khan, the film was a huge hit. And recently she teamed up with Ranbir Kapoor in the successful romantic comedy "Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani".

But now she is back with Akshay in "De Dana Dan".

"In any case, the year wouldn't be complete without me chasing after her (Katrina) in one of my movies," Akshay said jokingly. 

Farah Khan is the strongest woman in Bollywood Akshay Kumar

Farah is the strongest woman in Bollywood: Akshay Kumar 

New Delhi, Nov 22 (IANS) Guess who's got actor Akshay Kumar's vote as the "strongest" and most "capable" woman in Bollywood? It's none other than the director of his upcoming film "Tees Maar Khan" - Farah Khan.

"Farah is the strongest and most capable woman in the business (Bollywood)... She is highly respected by well-known people (here)," Akshay said in a statement.

"Tees Maar Khan" is a co-production between Farah and her husband Shirish Kunder's production company Three's Company Pvt. Ltd and Akshya's Hari Om Productions.

"I'm sure Farah will make sure we live up to the title and make this film larger than life," said Akshay.

Penned by Kunder, the film was written with Akshay in mind.
