Her debut film Shhh was a dud at the box-office and all her efforts to gain some credibility were met by poor critical reviews. While she is rarely heard of for her acting skills, her on-off relationship with Uday Chopra has kept her in the public eye for a while now. However, it seems that both the actors have finally decided that their relationship is a done-deal and have let that boat sail.
A friend of the actress let the cat out of the bag and claims that Tanisha has in fact found a “soul mate” in the form of an NRI businessman from London. While little details are known about the mystery man, Tanisha is said to be crazy, madly, deeply in love with the industrialist. So much so that she spent the last month in London with her new beau.
On the other hand, brother-in-law Ajay Devgan proposed to re-launch Tanisha in a home-production but she flatly refused stating that “she is no longer keen to act”. It seems that Tanisha is sitting pretty on cloud nine and hoping that wedding bells for her will ring soon. The same friend also reported that Kajol and her family have told Tanisha to take it easy and get to know the businessman more before progressing further into a possible marriage.

Anushka Sharma, SRK’s new Babe in the Big Screens
And now the hunt for the leading lady is over, ramp model Anushka Sharma, 21, standing tall with a height of 5.9” from Bangalore will make her silver screen debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Yashraj movie Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. She has also promoted hair products in television commercials, and not to forget the Fiat Palio Stile ‘Meri Sapno Ki Rani’ ad. Making an announcement in Mumbai today, Yash Chopra, Chairman of Yashraj Films said the 19-year-old has been recognized to play the female lead.
"Hopefully, the announcement will end all the speculation and conjecture that had started about the identity of the female lead ever since the film was announced," he alleged.
With Rab Ne.., Aditya Chopra takes the directorial baton after eight years. Anushka has no acting experience except ramp modelling in Bangalore, Chopra said.
Earlier, it was reported that Sonam Kapoor, daughter of Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor would be cast opposite SRK. Yash Chopra said, "We were looking first and foremost for someone who could truly embody the spirit of small town Punjab and we know we have found her in Anushka. And while she has no previous acting experience, we have seen that unique spark in her that makes us confident that she will be a standout even opposite Shah Rukh."
Rab ne Bana di Jodi will go on the floors on May 16 and will hit theatres worldwide in December 2008.
PS: Whenever King Khan acts opposite a tall leading lady, the film is a super duper hit. Preceding examples are Mein Hoo Na (Sushmita Sen), OSO(Deepika) and now Anushka. So all the best King Khan agin!

Kareena Kapoor walked away with the best actress trophy for the film "Jab We Met" at a scintillating presentation ceremony at the MMRDA Ground in the Bandra-Kurla Complex in northwest Mumbai Sunday.
FTPGI hosts its own award ceremony to honour Indian artistes as well as creative and technical personalities from the film industry every year.
The trophies are known as "Apsara" awards.
While "Chak De! India" was chosen the best movie of 2007, its director Shimit Amin bagged the trophy for the best director.
A Pakistani television channel, ARY Gold, also honoured actor Hrithik Roshan as the Best Male Style Icon of the year at the ceremony.
Katrina Kaif bagged the Best Female Style Icon ARY Gold trophy.
Akshay Kumar, who churned out the maximum number of hits last year, was adjudged the "Entertainer of the Year" by the FTPGI jury.
NDTV Imagine honoured Deepika Pudokone and Ranbir Kapoor as the year's best new faces, respectively.
Salman Khan and Govinda received the hit pair NDTV Imagine trophy for their breezy performances in producer Sohail Khan's hit movie last year, "Partner".

Deepika Padukone very candid on the Kapoor family

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."
