Shah Rukh Khan cancels shows in Germany, Spain
Thursday, October 16, 2008
Mumbai, (IANS) Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan hascancelled three live song-and-dance shows, part of his Temptation Reloaded world
tour, scheduled in Germany this week, leading to arguments between the tour's
Indian sponsor and the agent in Germany.
"The German promoters, SensAsian Media Ltd, to whom we gave the
contract for promotion, venue booking, etc have breached the contract and that
is why we have cancelled the show," Mohammed Morani, director of event
management firm Cineyug told IANS.
SensAsian Media Ltd has said no reason
was given for the cancellation.
Cineyug was sponsoring the
tour.
"We have also cancelled the Spain tour because just having a show
in Spain would have been a costly affair," added Morani.
Shah Rukh was to
have compered and performed with his cast at a glittering theatrical show on
Friday night in Berlin, followed by performances Saturday in Munich and Sunday
in Frankfurt.
"Cancelling three concerts with about 10,000 tickets sold
at the last minute is rudeness to the fans," said SensAsian Media Ltd in a
statement distributed by a Frankfurt public-relations agency.
The company
claims Shah Rukh's lawyer informed them through a letter that the actor was not
available for the "Temptation Reloaded 2008" tour and no reason was given.
But SensAsian Media Ltd confirmed there had been disputes during earlier
negotiations with the star's agent.
Tickets to the shows cost up to 150
Euros. Bollywood movies have developed a small but loyal fan following in
Germany.
After a successful Temptation world tour in 2005, Shah Rukh
launched his Temptation Reloaded tour in June this year in Rotterdam, Holland.
The star was joined by Arjun Rampal, Bipasha Basu, Deepika Padukone, Anushka
Dandekar and Ganesh Hedge.
According to the reports, Aamir Khan,
Priyanka Chopra, Malaika Arora and Kareena Kapoor were also expected to join him
at different venues.
In 2005 young singer Shweta Pandit joined Shah Rukh
on the tour and this time female rapper Hard Kaur was roped in to be a part of
the troupe.
Earlier Katrina Kaif was also a part of the troupe, but after
his spat with Salman Khan on Katrina's birthday, Shah Rukh dropped her from the
tour.
Hema Malini turns 60 Thursday, but feels sweet 16
New Delhi, (IANS) An actor, classical dancer, filmmaker and
politician - Bollywood's 'dream girl' Hema Malini who juggles different roles
with aplomb, turns 60 Thursday but says she still feels 16 at
heart.
"I feel 16 at 60. I guess age has nothing to do with creativity, but it certainly has a lot to do with maturity and dedication. I have lived life on my own terms and conditions and now when I look back, I feel happy about all the decisions I have taken," Hema said in a statement released
here Wednesday.
The actress, who is also a Bharatanatyam dancer-choreographer, plans to start her special day by offering prayers at the famed Tirupati Temple in Andhra Pradesh with daughters Esha and Ahana Deol.
"The best way to celebrate one's birthday is by praying to the lord for peace and harmony in the world. In times of terrorism and global financial depression, I guess we can only find peace in our prayers," Hema said.
Known for her memorable performances in films like "Johnny Mera Naam", "Seeta aur Geeta", "Jugnu", "Sholay", "Dream Girl", "Satte Pe Satta", "
Khushboo" and "Baghban", the actress has had a successful film career spanning almost 40 years.
However, Hema's entry into films was not a cakewalk for her. In 1964, she was rejected by director for not having star appeal when she tried her luck in southern cinema.
Hema got her break in "Sapnon ka Saudagar" opposite Raj Kapoor in 1968 but became an overnight star with "Johnny
Mera Naam" in 1970.
By 1972, she gained the status of the reigning Bollywood star and the success of her double-role in "Seeta Aur Geeta" fetched her the Filmfare award for best actress in 1973.
Throughout her career, Hema has been paired opposite a range of actors but it was her on-screen chemistry with actor Dharmendra - whom she later married - that made the duo a hit pair in films like "Sholay", "Charas", "Jugnu", "Seeta Aur Geeta" and "The Burning Train".
Hema took a sabbatical from the big-screen in the early 1990s during which she tried her hand at direction with box office dud "Dil Aashna Hai" in 1992 that was Shah Rukh Khan's launchpad.
The actress made a comeback in 2003 with box office hit "Baghban" opposite Amitabh Bachchan and since then has been seen in films like "Veer-Zaara", "Baabul" and "Laaga Chunari Mein Daag".
An acclaimed dancer, Hema does not think age is a deterrent and plans to continue performing Bharatnatyam and her dance ballets across the country and abroad.
Representing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Hema is a Rajya Sabha member.
Asked how she manages to juggle different roles in life, she said: "Its all about time management and I guess one can do even more than this if we sort out our priorities."
Hema's future projects include "Ek Thi Rani Aisi Bhi", "Saadiyan" and Deepa Sahi's directorial venture opposite Nana Patekar.
Amitabh Bachchan now on liquid diet,
Mumbai, (IANS) Megastar Amitabh Bachchan's health continuesto improve and he has been put on a liquid diet on the fifth day of his
hospitalisation following complains of abdominal pain, a spokesperson for
Lilavati Hospital said here Wednesday.
"Amitabh Bachchan continues to improve in health. He is on a
liquid diet. While the doctors are definitely happy with his constant progress,
they are not ready to comment on when he is going to be discharged," said
Lilavati Hospital spokesperson Mohan Rajan in a statement.
"The media has been requested to do factual and responsible reporting and not indulge in any speculation whatsoever," Rajan added.
Bachchan was rushed to the Nanavati Hospital, Vile Parle, a northwest suburb Saturday afternoon following complaints of abdominal pain and breathlessness. Later he was shifted to Lilavati hospital. He was celebrating his 66th birthday at his bungalow Pratiksha in Juhu.
Apart from his wife Jaya, daughter Shweta Nanda, son Abhishek and daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai are present at the hospital.
Bachchan is now talking to his family members, all of whom are with him.
