Mumbai, Feb 27 (IANS) After Shilpa Shetty, actress Kangana Ranaut is in line to follow the teachings of yoga guru Baba Ramdev.

'She is of the opinion that Baba Ramdev's pravachans (discourses) are kind of inspiring and sort of revolutionary and help one in becoming healthier,' a source close to the actress said.

Kangana, whose recent film 'Raaz-The Mystery Continues' proved to be a hit, also admires the fact that Baba Ramdev practises and preaches his skills in India itself unlike other such experts who have gone and settled in other parts of the world.

Indian actress Priyanka Chopra

For some reason, these stars have decided not to hook up... not yet. Even though they're hot! That makes them 'most eligible'.

Hansika Motwani

Grow up, child. Just a film old and working opposite the actor that of your father's age doesn't give you the permission to tie the knot so soon. But proposals are always welcome.

Shahid Kapur

Perhaps the most eligible bachelor of the tinsel town; 'konnections' with Kareena Kapoors and Vidya Balans notwithstanding. What a 'kismat', Shahid! Time to get settled down?

Mallika Sherawat

Her married status has always been in question... even for her! But this hot and sizzling sultry is now up for grab. Any good kissers there?

Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka has always been on a back foot while revealing anything about her personal life. But she has certainly evolved as an actress right from her first film to the soon-to-release Love Story 2050.

Top 10 Bahu’s Of India

THEY are hep and happening. Queens of the soap and role models to millions of young girls. Over the past more than a year, the small picture tube has been virtually invaded by a new set of young ladies who are setting new fashion styles and social trends.

  • These young new divas have not just elbowed out the well-known ones but have made them look like the generation past. Much of the credit must go to, who else? Ekta Kapoor, who has introduced a slew of new ladies who have cast a spell on the Indian audience. Stars who were nobodies till a year or so ago but are top of the pops today.
  • The good wife is always in a designer saree, complete with sindoor and mangalsutra. But the fiance can wear jeans and a sleeveless or noodles top. At least that is what the small screen seems to be preaching.

1.Shweta Tiwari

She is leading the band is who has attained heady stardom with her role in Kasautii Zindagi Kay. I would say she is bold, good looking ,tall and has immense screen presence. She can dance well and act too and her dialogue deliverance is quite spontaneous. She has all qualities for the leading heroine in Hindi films.

2. Prachi Desai

If purity needed a synonym in today's Indian television industry, Prachi Desai would be the top challenger. The 17-year-old actress did wonders with her portrayal of Bani in Kasamh Se and is the undisputed number one actress of 2007. Not only did she elevate the character to a new level, but she also became one of the most popular faces in the industry. Desai is Ekta Kapoor's latest blue-eyed-girl and there is a lot more expected from her in the years to come.

3. Divyanaga

She is a beauty, pretty and lovely in herself, although I am not watching any of her serials but in between when IÂ see her in Saas Bahu aur Sajish, I have become a fan of her. Recently she won best actress award. She embodies innocence in her looks.

4.Pravina

I dont know her off screen name, but she does a fabulous job in Baa Bahu aur Baby. Rcently her character has been killed in the serial, hope she will get resurrection soon. She is witty and her screen presence is immense and colossal.

5.Lubna

She is the Hema Malini look alike of Baa Bahu aur baby. Somehow even when she does overacting, it is not irritating and the way she portrays the character as the eldest bahu she is marvellous.

6.Richa Gujarati

She used to be the bahu of Babhi, recently has character has been given to somebody else. I always used to feel this girl has immense potential, and that has been materialised, it is learnt that she has signed a film with Abjieet Sawant, the Indian Idol. She performs has role quite candidly.

7.Panchi Vohra

She became a bahu very recently in kayamat, but from the very beginning, I had predicted that she will be the Rani Mukherjee of TV and that has really happened. She is sober, beautiful and with no ommps. Very simple and very innocent.
8.Pallavi

This dark girl fares well in Karam Apna Apna. She fully justifies with her role as a daughter from a lower middle class family , but now a bahu of a very rich family.

9.Sangeeta Ghosh

This lady has vivacious screen presence and recently we saw her in Des Mein Nikla Hoga Chand which won her a instant fame.

10.Kavita Nagpal

She plays Rakesh Bedis wife in Office Office. Although she is very plump and old enough for the role she play, but still I like the way she enacts her role. She is simply superb.
Readers now you give your choice of bahus in the TV and let us see which bahu wins the most of the vote.

Now it is cricket for Rani Mukherji

She played an angel in 'Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic', and now actress Rani Mukerji  will be attempting another exceptional role  as she plays a cricketer in Yash Raj Films' next venture, hence she is busy active on the field.

'I don't know if any actress has played a cricketer before. But I'm playing one for sure. In fact, I've been learning cricket regularly on the field for the past two months. I can most certainly play the game convincingly now, though not as good as professionals yet. It's a very big challenge for me,' Rani informed.

Her male lead will be Shahid Kapur with whom she will be making a maiden move.

'Also, for the first time I was playing a character who couldn't cry. Now they can stop saying Rani cries so much in all her films. It was pretty cool to play a character who actually doesn't know how to cry and who had to fly around like Hrithik Roshan in 'Krrish'.' Said the amused Rani.

'It required a lot of physical strength to assume the correct 'flying' posture on the harness. I guess it'd be equally difficult for me to look convincing as a cricketer. But I'm glad to be doing work with challenges.'

On being asked is she not worried over being the eternal Yash Raj heroine , Rani said winking that 'Why? Wasn't 'Saawariya' with Sanjay Leela Bhansali? And if Yash Raj is making some of the best films in our country why should I keep out just because people are talking?

Rani is troubled over her hype on marriage by the media, so she deceitfully asked 'Incidentally, my marriage date Feb 10 (as reported by some media) has come and gone. Would mediapersons like to set another date for me so I can start getting my trousseau ready?'

Well Rani, you cant ever stop gossipmongers! If you stop them how they will continue their flames smoldering?

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi..well the jodi is yet to be finalized by King Khan

In Aditya Chopra’s return film, three new girls have been short-listed to play Shah Rukh Khan ’s love heroine. Aditya Chopra is returning to direction eight years after he directed Mohabbatein with a big-budget Yashraj Films project titled Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi . 

The earlier gossip that Sonam Kapoor has been finalized to play the female lead opposite Shah Rukh has twisted out to be erroneous.  

Aditya has auditioned many girls and has finalised on three newcomers. One girl is named Simran and she is from Punjab. Another is a Mumbai girl. The third girl’s name is anonymous. 
 
The three girls are at present in Mumbai, doing screen tests for the film.
 
Aditya has not been able to take a ultimate name on who will ultimately be SRK’s foremost lady in the film. So, he asked SRK to select one.
 
Since SRK feels he is not at ease in selecting his leading actress out of the three girls, he has gave the responsibility to Aditya.
 
Aditya plans to begin shooting ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ from May. The film plans to be released in December,2008.
