Salman Khan too made his first appearance on the small screen with Dus ka Dum on Sony TV. It is the creation of Siddhartha Basu and Synergy Labs, the inventors of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ and ‘Paanchvi Paas Se Tez.
Distinct from other shows like KBC or Paanchvi Paas Se Tez, Dus ka Dum is not a quiz proramme. General Knowledge need not be crammed. The show is reasonably very uncomplicated and is likely to be acquainted with the Indian audiences very rapidly. The contestants should have the similar feeling what most of the Indian feel .The nearer the player is to the answer in the estimation poll,the healthier are his chances of winning.
Salman Khan like SRK was seen having a close bonding with the participants, but it had to be mentioned that he does not acquire the magnetism nor the screen existence like King Khan. All the player has to do is make a presumption of how the majority of Indians are belief. The show probably may catch up in the days to come. The prize money of 10 Crores is the largest amount offered on a Game Show in India thus far. But in the first episode, the first contestant lost Rs. 10 lakhs in the pursuit to play for the 1 crore question. Had she quitted at Rs. 10 lakhs she need not have faced herself in such a distressing and reprehensible state of affairs. But as the case is, this is the rule of the game!!

Sharukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai are getting together to act again after a long period of gap. This couple could not come togther after Devdas was due to the fact that Sallu bhai was very possessive of Aish.
Salman Khan had made this very clear on the sets of CHALTE CHALTE (2003), in which Ash was to act opposite Sharukh, but then due to a fight on the sets between Sallu and Sharukh, Ash could not star, and later Rani was chosen.
But at present everything is over between the old lovebirds. Today Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is enjoying the triumph of her first post marriage release, JODHAA AKBAR. She is also known to be “The first fully active actress after marriage!�
The onscreen chemistry between SRK and Aish are noticeable, there is no two opinion about it. The fact that their pairing in films like, JOSH (2000), MOHABBATEIN (2000) and DEVDAS (2002) proved to be a big knock , cannot be shorn of.
The general view was that Aishwarya when Josh was released, Aish shared a better chemistry with SRK (who played her brother in the film) than with her love significance, Chandrachur Singh. Ash and Sharukh have that kind of appearance, which draws people to their films. Till today, their item number, ‘Ishq Kameena’ from SHAKTI -THE POWER (2002) is amazing.
Bachchan Bahu was asked if she was ready to work with Sharukh, she said that she is ready to work with him, provided that there is a proposal worthy of her consideration.
That is a statement worth to be listened by filmmakers.

Katrina Kaif has vehemently denied that Salman Khan manhandled her recently, as she says it is just a media hype and nothing of that sort happened. Hmm… she needs to defend her beau’s image as she is fully aware that if she does not bestow a statement like this, he is going to manhandle her for a second time.

All are aware that Bollywood heartthrob Salman Khan has proposed marriage to Katrina Kaif twice over the past two years. But this New Year’s Eve is said to have been quite different for this hot couple!
Bestdesi.com got the news through a common friend that all through December, Salman was in a contemplative mood about his love affair. He confessed to this friend that while his colleagues Shah Rukh and Hrithik were extremely happy with their wives and children, his own life was not going anywhere.
But unknown to many, Salman this time, set the stage for what appears to be the most romantic proposal of the year! Since the entire Khan family headed for their farm in Panvel to celebrate New Year, Salman quietly said he would drive down with Katrina. And according to the grapevine, just before they touched the farm at Panvel, Salman stopped the car and, under the stars, seriously proposed her.
Whether she has said the big ‘YES’ or not remains to be seen. But Salman has apparently returned in a jubilant mood. His friend tells us that Salman regrets the earlier two proposals he made to Katrina, for they were in view of others, which is said to have humiliated her.
Also, Khan is now willing to give her a free harness on her professional decisions. In keeping with the freedom his family has allowed to all women to work and be on their own, apparently Salman has realized that he cannot stop Katrina from following her dreams.
All that’s in his mind is that he does not want to lose this woman whom he loves so much. As for seeing them together on screen, Salman and Katrina will next appear in Subhash Ghai’s romantic Main Yuvraj, the shooting of which is already underway.

2007 was a great year for the Hindi film industry. BestDesi team chooses top 10 films.
- This year Fresh new faces made an appearance, old talents resurfaced, and already successful actors moved out of their comfort zone.
- 2007 gave us Ranbir Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor (both in Saawariya), Deepika Padukone (Om Shanti Om) and Darsheel Safary (Taare Zameen Par) – the bright new faces of tomorrow’s Bollywood.
- We saw Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan take on roles they’ve never done before: Shah Rukh giving up his mannerisms (in Chak De India!), Aamir becoming a director (in Taare Zameen Par).
- Madhuri Dixit and Govinda both made their comebacks, pleasing their huge fan followings no end.
2007’s ten best films, in no particular order:
- Gandhi, My Father
Cast: Akshaye Khanna, Bhoomika Chawla
Plot: The film focuses on Harilal, the son of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Its message: The father of the Indian nation failed as a father to his son.
Why it’s special: A very bold and sensitive storyline was taken forward by exceptional acting, particularly by Akshaye Khanna as the disturbed son of the Mahatma.
- Chak De India!
Cast: Shah Rukh Khan, Vidya Malvade etc.
Plot: A disgraced former Indian hockey captain bounces back to lead the women’s team to international victory, against all odds.
Why it’s special: Based on the real-life story of Mir Ranjan Negi, a former coach of the Indian women’s hockey team, the film saw Shah Rukh Khan rise spectacularly above his mannerisms. The film proved that a Hindi film can work without any singing around trees. It also helped rekindle public interest in the national sport of hockey.
- Om Shanti Om
Cast: Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone etc.
Plot: Inspired by the Eighties classic Karz, the film revolves around revenge and re-incarnation, with Shah Rukh in a double role with a twist.
Why it’s special: The film dares to make fun of Seventies’ and Eighties’ Bollywood, including Big B, yet is always in good taste. Brilliant music, acting and costumes all around. Model Deepika makes a pretty good impression in her first film.
- Aaja Nachle
Cast: Madhuri Dixit, Akshaye Khanna, Kunal Kapoor, Irrfan Khan, Konkona Sen Sharma
Plot: A dancer returns to her roots and forces her city to sit up and take notice.
Why it’s special: Madhuri Dixit’s comeback movie may have not done well in the box office, but it proved — again — that Madhuri is beautiful, talented and an exceptional dancer. The fairy-tale plot let the otherwise good movie down.
- Bhool Bhulaiya
Cast: Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Shiney Ahuja
Plot: A psycho-thriller, the movie revolves around a “haunted” house, an ancient family and its many complications.
Why it’s special: Remake of a classic Malayalam film, Bhool Bhulaiya moves quickly with edge-of-seat action. Vidya Balan shines in a role of many shades.
- Guru
Cast: Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai, R. Madhavan, Vidya Balan, Mithun Chakraborty
Plot: A rags-to-riches story, arguably inspired by the life of Indian tycoon Dhirubhai Ambani.
Why it’s special: A taut storyline that saw exceptional acting by its cast. The director dared to deglamorise Aishwarya and re-introduce Mithun, a senior actor languishing in B-grade movies.
- Partner
Cast: Salman Khan, Govinda, Lara Dutta, Katrina Kaif
Plot: A remake of Hitch, the story’s all about falling in love – and its many complications.
Why it’s special: A fun movie, it marks the re-entry of Govinda as an A-list actor with perfect comic timing.
- Taare Zameen Par
Cast: Aamir Khan, Darsheel Safary, Tanay Chheda, Tisca Chopra
Plot: A young boy with dyslexia grapples with life, until he meets his mentor — an art teacher also with dyslexia.
Why it’s special: “Perfectionist” Aamir Khan’s directorial debut, this film is exceptional in its story-telling. Truly sensitive, minus melodrama and highlighting an often-ignored condition, Taare may also have given Bollywood a new generation star, Darsheel, 11.
Big super flops
The year 2007 has also been marked by some spectacular flops, many of them from celebrated directors.
- Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s musical, Saawariya, did poorly at the box office, despite the much-hyped debut of star kids Ranbir and Sonam Kapoor; the film has a look alike of a ballet with only colours of blue.
- Pradip Sarkar’s Lagaa Chunari Mein Daag had a hackneyed storyline and crippling melodrama. The film died naturally, despite the presence of stars such as Rani Mukerji, Abhishek Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan.
- Another huge failure was Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag, a poorly-judged remake of Sholay – a top Bollywood film of all time. Even the presence of Amitabh Bachchan, this time as villain, failed to lift it.

Are any of my vital organs seen?
Kangana Ranaut merely doesn’t fear about what people have to say about her picture on the cover of a film magazine. Seen in a body suit, Kangana’s picture is attached to by a headline that screams: Naked truth exposed!
Kangana’s so-called nude appearance has arrested a lot of attention. The actress, however, is unfazed. She says, “What’s the big deal about the picture? Are any of my vital organs seen? I haven’t posed nude at all. These days one doesn’t need to. Body suits are available readily in the market.”
Kangana fails to understand why so many eyebrows are being evoked? She says, “Why would I be upset? It was for an annual issue and we just tried doing something divergent. In my profession, one has to do different kinds of photo shoots. I fail to understand why such a big deal is made about a normal picture.”

Nevertheless they never came across eye to eye since rumours allege that Salman make it a bespeak and passes away out of his way to ascertain that he behaves not knock against his passé.
This party comprised no more dissimilar and Sallu bhai made his entry through the back entrance only after the Bachchans had left the building. The word of mouth is that Sallu has his escort keep open a watch and assure whether the Bachchan’s are still there or are they gone, it is only after they have left that he enters.

Amul Star Voice of India
And the winner is……
· On 24th November, 2007, in a jam packed auditorium named, Andheri Sports complex, Mumbai a spectacular event was held to choose the First Amul Star Voice Of India (ASVOI) and the coveted trophy was won none other than the shy, Punjab da putar Ishmeet Singh Sodhi along with 3 yrs contract with Big music and a Chevorlet car.
· Throughout the show, the non-bias host of the show, Shan kept the spectators under invariable ambiguity as he was announcing the statistics in regard to both of the contestants from south, east and west zone and all Harshits’ fans were apparently rejoicing as they visualised Harshit as the apparent frontrunner. But Shan had indicated that the votes form Northern Zone would undeniably make the discrepancy.
· All the 10 besmisals gave a dazzling performance .Among the Bemisaal Baraah, Toshi has already sung for Salman Khan in an untitled film, Irfan has got chance in Mukesh Bhat’s film, Abhaas has worked with Aadesh Srivastav and has also sang a jingle and Sumitra Iyer has sung for Rima Sen in the film Mere Khwabo Mein Jo Aaye.
· The Jury award went to Abhaas . Abhilasha (Alka’s pet) won a special prize of a car given by some trust.
· The dazzling Madhuri Dixit, togged up in a peach shiffon sari with golden work walked up to the show to enhance the spirits of the two finalists. She later seated herself with her husband in the audience. Later Lata Mangeshkar graced the occasion to proclaim the conqueror of the show.
· Lataji rewarded diamond studded ‘swaralaya’ watches to both the contestants which is her brand label. She informed that the watches have been personally designed by her and her sister Usha with the melodious needles.
· Many starlets from the serials of Star Plus were present in the event to witness the show.
· Both Harshit and Ishmeet gave away performance solo and duet and also with Shan. The number given by Shan on the well-popular number Suhanalla from Fanna was indeed a amazing song as usual.
· Throughout the show, everybody kept guessing that Harshit will go away with the trophy, but in the conclusion, it was Lataji who broke the trepidation and announced the name of Ishmeet as the winner, that unquestionably was an immense disbelief to the fans of Harshit.
· Ishmeet is as worthy as anybody else. He has a very matchless voice perfect for passionate songs. He still stayed on the stage, in spite of a lot of pitiful mockery from some of the mentors.
· Ishmeet has been honoured with the title of Young Sikh Star of Punjab by a NGO Guru Gobind Singh Study Circle. He will receive this honour at the Golden temple from the SDP President. He has already signed for Punjab’s youth icon for Sonata watches Yuva range.
Congratulations to Ishmeet for his novel accomplishment!
