Saif & Imtiaz robbed off
In a rare incident that happened in Ahmedabad yesterday with Saif Ali Khan & Imtiaz Ali, the duo were robbed of their belongings. Saif was there to promote his upcoming movie Love Aaj Kal with director Imtiaz Ali when they were pick-pocketed amidst a huge crowd gathering.. Saif was robbed of his expensive pair of Dolce & Gabanna glares while Imtiaz lost his wallet that contained his credit cards & driving license. Saif consoled himself by thinking a crazy fan might have taken it to keep as a memento but Imtiaz Ali was worried about losing important documents.

Row over Saif's beard in Love Aaj Kal
You may have liked the promos & songs of Love Aaj Kal for all the good reasons or you must be waiting for the release of the movie to see Deepika kissing Saif but the movie has landed in a row for stirring religious sentiments. Charan Singh Sapra, the President of Punjabi Cultural And Heritage Board has objected on Saif's beard look in the film, reasoning it that Sardars do not sport a trimmed beard. Sapra has also sent a memorandum to Saif Ali Khan, Imtiaz Ali and Dinesh Vijan regarding the same. Not just that, he also added that if the said look was not corrected, then, they (members of the Punjabi Cultural And Heritage Board) will be writing to all the major Sikh organizations to protest and stall the release of the film all over the country.

Saif-Bebo-Shahid drama on big screen!
An MMS showing Shahid Kapur and Kareena Kapoor locking lips three years ago made headlines for months. But what happened afterwards? How exactly did Bebo become Saif’s girl and why did she snub his sister Soha in public? Coming soon to a theatre near you is The Secret life of Karina (that’s how the filmmaker spells it to avoid legal hassles with the actress), a B-grade film that claims to have answers to all these questions.
The film has an alleged budget of Rs 20 crores and is being produced by Spectra Multimedia Films, a production house known for making regional movies. “The film is inspired by the life of Shahid Kapur, Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan,” explains Flynn Remedios, Spectra’s executive producer. “The film will be based mostly on media reports. It’ll show the underbelly of Bollywood. We are not cooking up anything. These stories were published. We will be showing the whole incident of the Shahid-Kareena smooch and even the one when Kareena snubbed Saif’s sister Soha Ali Khan at an event,” he says.
Believe it or not, the pot boiler will also draw some instances from the infamous real life of Bollywood’s bad boy Salman Khan. The lead protagonist in the movie, cleverly named Saifee, is supposedly a mixture of Salman Khan and Saif Ali Khan’s personalities.
Remedios says, “Saifee’s character will exhibit traces of Salman’s ‘violent’ love stories with his ex girlfriends, notably Somi Ali and Aishwarya Rai.”
He explains that the film is set to go on the floors next month as the star cast is yet to be finalised.
Shradha Sharma, the actress initially chosen to play the lead role of Karina, has since declined the offer. “I wasn’t comfortable playing this character as I do not want to offend Kareena Kapoor. There was a scene in which Shaheed [the screen name for the actor playing Shahid Kapur’s role] cuts his wrists for the actress and I found all this very uncomfortable,” says Sharma.
When asked to react, Salman’s spokesperson Alok Mathur said that if the production house is openly claiming that the character is that of Salman, “they will get into real trouble”.
“They are just out to get publicity. They can’t get the real Salman, toh Salman ke naam ka faayda uthaaenge. Such films always flop,” said Mathur.
Responding to the matter, Shahid Kapur’s spokesperson said, “Shahid doesn’t know about such a film and is not going to bother. It is a B-grade film and these people are clearly doing it for publicity.”
Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan were not available for comment.

Now Saifeena will fight
Yes, your heard it right, Saifeena will fight between themselves and take it to the next level but in reel life. Bebo is all set fight with Saif in their next movie Agent Vinod. Bebo has never worked in an action movie before and was thrilled to sport this action role in Agent Vinod.
Bebo, who was signed by Saif’s home production Illuminati Films for Agent Vinod, will have to undergo some rigorous training before shooting for the fight sequences. Bebo plays an under cover agent from some other country; the character will have shades of Mala Sinha’s role in Aankhen and Rehana Sultan in 1977 film Agent Vinod. However the director of the film Sriram Raghavan denies this.
After taking the Brangelina way in calling themselves Saifeena, it would be great to see our own versions of Mr & Mrs Smith.

Saifeena being compared with Brangelina
Saifeena, the hot couple of India who have been regarded as the style icon for the youth, are being compared to Brangelina for many reasons. Saifeena have been dating each other for around two years now and currently living in a Mumbai apartment in a Live In Relationship. When it comes to the hottest couple in India, people recall AbhiAish, the jodi of Abhishek Bachchan & Aishwarya Rai, but when it comes to the hottest unmarried jodi - it's Saifeena. These days they have become more vocal about their relationship and marriage plans seem to be on the way.
Not only does Saifeena of Bollywood rhyme with Brangelina of Hollywood but they are also being seen as the 'It' couple in India, particularly the youth.

Unique style of promoting
