If tax figures are to be believed, King Khan is a bigger king of the marketing world too.
Â
A major share of his advance tax money has gone into paying for his income from endorsing a swerve of products and other sources, which is a whopping amount of Rs.270 million. Sources in the advertising agency for which the superstar has worked divulged that his income from endorsements fetches him Rs.1.5 billion ($38 million) a year, the highest for any Indian advertising “model”.
Amitabh Bachchan does more endorsement that King Khan, but his annual endorsements do not cross Rs.1.2 billion.
King Khan will continue to hold this position for more years as he has a strong threshold in the Bollywood compared to many others stars as there is no one yet who can opponent his magnetism.
In the current fiscal, his earnings from this source may go a little above Rs.1.5 billion as he has been made brand ambassador of more products - and more are waiting, the sources added. His movie does not fetch him more than 50-60 million per film.
A big large piece of his income from outside Bollywood in the current year also accrued from hosting STAR Plus’ “Kaun Banega Crorepati” quiz series for which he received Rs.10 million per episode.
King Khan received a profit of Rs. 400 million on his home production Om Shanthi Om when he sold the right to Eros International for whopping Rs. 750 million whereas his original expenditure was only Rs. 350 million. Rs. 50 million was the fees which he gave himself for working as hero in that movie, which is not included in the profit of accounts.
King Khan does not augment his fees unlike his contenders. It is implicit that he is not avaricious on this part. Even though his latest movie OSO is a super duper hit, he does not intend to increase his fees. That’s the star excellence he has, and that’s why he is victorious.
“Shah Rukh chooses his movies carefully. First, the subject matter must appeal to him and, if it does, his opting to star in the movie would largely depend on the credibility and antecedents of the producer and the director,â€said an executive of the star’s production banner, Red Chillies Production.
In disparity, Shah Rukh behaves like a ’star’ when he shoots for TV commercials. There he refuses to negotiation on anything, particularly on his price. “Why should I compromise? TV commercials are what they are – commercials, laments the Badshah
“Had the industry not put me in a position where I am today, would the companies have chosen me to be their brand ambassadors?” he asks.
Is King Khan, then, robbing Peter to pay Paul? As one advertising agency executive put it: “He is, but his breaking and entering seem like a communal deal.”Â

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.

The world is a global marketplace and where once India was faced with watching Hollywood reruns, Bollywood is now one of the largest most powerful motion picture production facilities in the world.
Statistics: 1000 Hindi-language films are produced every year. Ticket sales exceed 3.6 billion.
Hollywood has its stars, so too does Bollywood and while the world’s tabloids may focus on Britney Spears, Yana Gupta and Abhay Deol are not far behind with a relationship that was secret, but now has been made public.
Randeep Hooda and Sushmita Sen are rumored to be having secret meetings on horseback, but the rumors were denied… “Where do you hear all this? Its complete rubbish,” laughs Sushmita. Aishwarya Rai has no intentions of quitting movies simply because she is married; and is paired with Gerard Depardieu in the film Asterix at the Olympic Games.

Found this wonderful Interview of Ayesha Takia On AOL.in Bollywood Section
We also hope to have our own interview with her soon 
till then have a read at the interview by the GlamSham Team
Possessing a beautiful face and a mesmerizing smile, Ayesha Takia is one such actress who is capable of winning over people with her performance as well as sweet talk. Another interesting thing about Ayesha is that the cutie has been able to win applauses from the audience both for her roles in serious films as well as in comedy. Soon Ayesha will be seen in an interesting role in Rohit Shetty’s comedy thriller Sunday. Recently, we caught up with Ayesha and during a brief encounter she talked about her film Sunday, her upcoming projects and plans for the future. Here are the excerpts.
Q: Tell us something about your character in Sunday.
A: In this film, my character’s name is Sehar who works as a dubbing artiste for a cartoon network. She is a very forgetful kind of a girl and cannot remember things of the past and as a result she is often in problems.
Q: This is the first time that you are portraying a dubbing artist. Did you need to take any special preparation for this?
A: Actually Vikash, who had trained Tussar Kapur for the dumb character in Golmaal, has helped me a lot in doing this role to perfection. Simultaneously, I used to watch a lot of cartoon films at home to prepare myself for the role which demanded that the facial expressions of the artist should match his voice. While doing this role I have often noticed that the expressions of some dubbing artists are very loud and on the other hand, some people’s appearances are so funny that I often used to feel ashamed. I loved doing this role as it provided me with an opportunity to learn a lot of things.
Q: While preparing for the role you have watched a lot of cartoon shows. Which among them is your favorite?
A: I personally liked ‘Donald Duck’ and ‘Mickey Mouse’ a lot and this is also because of the voice-overs in these shows. I also liked ‘Tom and Jerry’, but this is a silent cartoon show and hence I did not get much to learn from this show.
Q: Would you call this a return to your childhood days?
A: (Laughingly) No, it is nothing like this. But it is also true that I have never spent so much time watching cartoon networks and now it looks so strange. I remember initially when I used to watch the cartoon networks, my dad used to come and tease me saying that I was watching cartoons at this age and I used to smilingly reply that I am merely preparing for my role. Then he used to remind me that I would do the same thing when I was a kid.
Q: What has been your experience working with co-stars?
A: I have enjoyed a lot working with everyone. There were four men - Ajay, Arshad, Irfaan and Rohit - in the film and I was the lone girl. But I have never felt any difference working with them and even joked with them. Ajay is not only a sporting person, but also very protective. Many people have told me that he is prankster, but I have always found him to be an introvert. Irfaan too is very much like Ajay, but Arshad is a funny person and always made us laugh with his jokes and pranks. And what should I tell about Rohit, he was the director, but still one of us. While working he was serious, but rest of the time, he was like a friend.
Q: In this film there is an incident where you miss a Sunday. How do you spend your Sundays in real life?
A: (Laughingly) Sundays were very attractive to me since my school days as it would be a holiday. I always feel very upset when I miss a holiday in real life. On Sundays I wake up late and do all my work leisurely. And there is a special fun in watching television shows on this day.
Q: After Sunday what else is in the pipeline?
A: I am working in Boney Kapoor’s Wanted which is a remake of Pokhri in Tamil. I am doing the role of a gym instructor who doesn’t have a father and she works to look after her mother and younger brother. I am also working with Nagesh once again, but I don’t know whether the film will be titled 8 BY 10 or Tasveer. This is a big budget psychological thriller and here I am opposite Akshay Kumar. The film is a story about a couple from Canada. In addition, I am doing De Taali for E Nivas and the film is based on the topic of friendship. Aftab is opposite me in this film, which is a wonderful movie like Socha Na Tha.
Q: Since the beginning of your career you have concentrated on career-oriented films rather than masala films. What is your take on this?
A: Actually, I am fortunate that in the initial days of my career I have got good offers. I am also grateful to the audience who has appreciated my performances in Socha Na Tha and Dor, otherwise these days an artiste’s fate is sealed between hit and flop films. This year my first release is Sunday and I have a lot of expectations from this movie as not only the film is good, but also because it involves good actors and a talented director.
Q: According to you, are you a serious actor or a comedy film actor?
A: I consider myself both. For instance, Dor is such a film that even after 20 years I would feel proud to talk to my children about my performance in the film. On the other hand, I have done some light or comedy films. I am of the opinion that as an actor, I should act in both kinds of films because acting in a particular type of film would not only put a stamp on an actor, but also bore him or her.
Q: Which do you feel was a turning point in your career?
A: Frankly speaking, till date I have not come across any point in my life that I can call a turning point. But I am really hoping for a turning point in my life. All I need is a super-duper hit film and a character that no one has performed so far, so that I can satiate the artist in me. However, I am quite happy with my present situation.
Q: What was the reason that made you accept a film like No Smoking after doing a successful movie like Dor?
A: Look, there can be no comparison between Dor and No Smoking. I don’t want to do any film that will have all the ingredients of a Bollywood masala, but the film should provide me with ample opportunity to perform.
Q: Some of your films like Salaam-E-Ishq and Fool And Final flopped despite having big names and great casting. What is the reason behind this?
A: It has often been seen that when we expect a lot from something, it generally deprives us. It is mostly a matter of luck and chance. As you just said, Salaam-E-Ishq flopped despite having a big star cast. It feels very bad because it was basically not a bad film, but definitely a long one. The problem with Fool And Final was that people took this as a serious film, when we had made it clear in the promos that the audience should take the movie lightly. Although these are not thought-provoking films, I enjoyed doing them very much.
Q: In Bollywood, the audience generally appreciates male comedians rather than female comic actors. Do you feel that the audience will do justice with your performance in Sunday?
A: I sincerely pray that the audience appreciate my performance as a comedienne in the movie. My favorite women comedians in Bollywood are Sridevi and Juhi Chawla and I am sure that everyone will accept this. To tell you honestly, I would prefer to do comedy roles to wearing low cut blouses like the present day heroines.

| This beautiful daughter of actor Sanjay Dutt and Richa is raised in Queens, New York. She lost her mother when she was very young. Her mother succumbed to brain tumour. She lives with her maternal grandparents and aunties. She is proud to be a part of the Dutt legacy. Her grandfather (the late Sunil Dutt) was a wonderful person and completely doted on Trishala. Sunil Dutt died 2 years back. Her grandmother (Nargis), who was absolutely gorgeous and had such a beautiful smile. Nargis died some 25 years ago due to cancer. Trishala love her movies and watch them all the time. 
Trishla says her other aunts (Priya and Namrata) are also huge amusing to be with and she is also very close to her two cousins, Saachi and Siya (Namrata and Kumar Gaurav’s daughters). In India, she is very close to Ranbir and Riddhima Kapoor (Rishi Kapoor’s children) because Ranbir studied in the US and her aunt Enna was his custodian. Trishala studied in a private school and according to her private school teachers were not actually manner to little kids. So when she was really tortured in such a school her parents immediately switched her to a public school. Trishla that was fantastic and she enjoyed her schooling In US too she has her limits, she is only allowed to go out once a week with friends when college starts. She also have a 11 p.m. time limit, and occasionally if she ask satisfactorily and if she has been excellent, then her folks make advanced it a bit by half-an-hour.
Trishla’s eventual dream is to become honest lawyer and fight for her father. She says “my mouth would not stop rattling awaiting my aim had been heard, and until I get what I want. I would carry on skirmishing until I hear the reply my ears want to hear. They may say I’m a fighter as well, who is not afraid to say what is accurate. If I feel incredible can be ready, I will not snooze in anticipation unless it is done.†|
On being asked about her fathers’ alleged marriage to Manyata, she said its her dad’s private life and she has nothing to do with it.
And so the fighter lives on….for her dad, for her family and for herself……
