Madhuri Dixit is to emerge with the Bachchans during the North American leg of The Unforgettable Tour that kicks off at The Rogers Centre in Toronto on July 18, 2008.
“For Madhuri, it’d be the easiest thing in the world for her to join the concerts in the US as she is based there,” revealed a close friend of the Bachchans .
Besides the Bachchans (Amitabh, Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai) other Bollywood faculty that will be a part of the whole expedition includes Bipasha Basu, Ritesh Deshmukh and the duo of Vishal-Shekhar.
Regardless of plunging the tour as a brain child of Amitabh Bachchan, Wizcraft, which is supervising the the tour, is not ready to jeopardy relying on just the Bachchans, Bipasha and Ritesh to drag in the crowds, sentient of their boundaries as live entertainers.
Other Bollywood stars who have been roped in to dapper up the tour contribution at other chosen places include Kareena’s beaus, Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan(past and present..lol..)

When Deepika Padukone met her idol, Rishi Kapoor not as a fan but Rishi’s son’s girlfriend she was flabbergasted and said “It’s amazing. But in his younger days my dad (badminton champ Prakash Padukone) was often told that he resembled Rishi Uncle. I grew up as his big fan, have seen Karz and Kabhi Kabhie number of times. When Ranbir took me to meet his parents, I was re-living my childhood images of the most compatible couple I’ve ever seen on screen.”
Even the Kapoors has welcomed their would be daughter in law that’s why Deepika feels “Rishi Uncle is so warm. As for Neetu Aunty, she has an aura of natural grace and charm about her. She’s very poised and articulate. I’ve met her more than I’ve met Uncle. Me and Rishi uncle are going to be working toge
ther. We had a reading together recently. He’s so passionate about cinema. I’ve so much to learn from him.”
Deepika cannot go on without appreciating the Kapoors, she has lot of regard to both of them which is apparent from her statement which says “Both Ranbir and his sister Ridhima have been brought up with the right values. They come from such an illustrious family. And yet they’re so down-to-earth. I see many similarities between their upbringing and mine. Though both Ranbir and I were exposed to celebrity situations from childhood, our parents have made sure we’re firmly rooted to reality.”
When asked about their marriage, Deepika expressed that “we’re both very comfortable in our relationship. Now that we’ve come out in the open about our relationship, our parents are very happy. Beyond that it’s too early to talk about marriage.”
About her affair with Yuvraj and on the impressionable comment made by Yuvraj, Deepika says confidently that “I really don’t think she said anything against me. If she had a grudge she’d call me up and talk to me. I always say that no outside source can know what kind of a relationship two people share. I spoke to her after the statements attributed to her came out. I’ve always shared a fantastic rapport with her. She’s a wonderful and strong person. I’ve learnt a lot from her. As a woman and mother, I look up to Yuvraaj’s mother. She’s a multi-tasking mother. She has single-handedly brought up her two children. Yuvraaj is doing extremely well for himself. And his younger brother who has just started out is also doing very well himself. I wish the family all the best.”

Homage to the legendary and the eternal tragic queen Madhubala on her Birthday/Death Anniversary in February
Her childhood days
Madhubala is India’s Hindi film industry’s, delicate, semi-tragic, mortal survival. She remains a seductress even 35+ year after her demise.
 
Madhubala’s father, was Ataullah Khan, a Pathan who had immigrated from the Pakistan. She was born, February 14, 1933, Valentines Day, in the Malad suburb of Bombay. Her birth name was Mumtaz Khan, the third of 11 children. Bombay Talkies studio was located in the Malad suburb where the Bombay Talkies was located. She was interviewed at the age of 8 by DeviKa Rani and Himanshu Rai, for an audition. Having impressed by her performance they put her in the movie Basant. The song was a super hit, after she acted in many films as a child artiste. Â
Under the direction of Kidar Sharma, at the age of 13 Mumtaz was signed as heroine opposite Raj Kumar who done the debue with this movie. It was on this film that producer Devika Rani gave her the name Madhubala, which means, “young maiden made of honey”. After that she acted in 17 movies, even when madhubala was not 17.
Madhubala grew within the studio complex. When her friends went to school she gave shooting for the movie, her father was very possessive about her and he doted on her money.Â
Chemistry with Dilip Kumar
She featured with Dilip Kumar in the film Tarana and their off screen affair too started and it is said that this was one of the legendry tragic love affair.
Madhubala and Dilip Kumar were deep in love, but her father opposed. He did not like the affair, as whole her money, property etc. was under his control. Their affair was at that time took to court also as Madhubala’s father did not allow her to go got location shoots with Dilip Kumar. Since her family was totally against the affair, it ended up on a bitter note. Dilip once told about Madhubala that “I love this woman and shall love her till my dying day.” The affair though, had come to a bitter end.
Her love affairs
Old stalwarts say that her first director Mr Kidar Sharma, who gave her first break was in deeply love with her, but madhubla never reciprocated, he was a married man too. Later film Mahal was made by Kamal Amrohi, they too had a serious love affair. Film Mahal was a super hit due to their serious affair.Amrohi was again a married man,madhubala told him to divorce his first wife, she even offered him lakhs of rupees for that. But he wanted to be devoted to his first wife. She became heart broken and then left him in sway.Â
Madhubala was proposed by three men, Pradeep Kumar, Bharat Bhushan and Kishor Kumar. She selected Kishor.They had a civil marriage and Kishore converted to Islam and was renamed Karim Abdul . His parents refused to attend the wedding and never really accepted Madhubala as they thought she had broken their son’s marriage. When Madhubala went to touch her father in law’s feet they moved away.Â
 Â
She moved back to her bungalow because her inlaws were torturing her. Madhubala realised that she had made a mistake in marrying Kishore; who was ineffective and parsimonious. What a catastrophe!!Â
The Screen divinity
She is considered the most beautiful woman to have ever appeared on the Indian film screen. Her untimely death and tragic romance with Dilip Kumar has superior her to legendary significance. Many journalists have claimed that Madhubala was very immoral, and obsessed many lovers. May be it is the thoughts of these journalists’ conjecture. Madhubala was lively and flirtatious, yet this is no proof of carelessness.
