I am scared of fashion shows: Priyanka Chopra

Bollywood actress and former Miss World Priyanka Chopra says she gets goosebumps whenever she sashays down fashion runways."I am not a ramp-friendly person, as professionally I have walked the runway just for a couple of months. You can say I am out of practice," Chopra said after she turned out for designer Ritu Kumar at the inaugural show of the HDIL Indian Couture Week here late Tuesday."In movie making, we have so many cuts and takes that we can cover up our goof ups but on the ramp, everything is live. Hats off to the professional models who do it so gracefully," Chopra told.Chopra had first walked the ramp for Kumar when she was just 16, and doesn't remember the last time she did so professionally!"I have been doing it for friends only, like I did today but apart from that, I do not remember when was the last time I did it professionally," Chopra said. "After winning Miss World title, I shifted to movies so there was no scope of doing it on ...

Tanushree: Sorry, but there is no sex in Sensex

One catches Tanushree Dutta in a chirpy mood as she talks about her latest arrival Saas Bahu Aur Sensex. She exclaims that this film directed by Shona Urvashi may end up disappointing a few. Reason being that from a title comprising of the word 'Sensex', some may expect a bit of sex element in the film as well."I am considered to be a sex symbol and I take pride in the fact that audience does expect me to be seen in particular kind of roles where I bring on the oomph.However, I am sorry to say that Saas Bahu Aur Sensex doesn't have any sex in it even though the word 'sex' does come into picture", winks Tanushree who came with quite a bang with films like Aashiq Banaya Aapne and Chocolate."However, I am quite a different individual in Saas Bahu Aur Sensex and truly enjoyed being a part of this cinema," says Tanushree who has for the first time worked with a woman director, Shona Urvashi, in the film.

Hit starved Rani goes back to Yash Raj film

The 'Queen of Hearts' Rani Mukherjee tried to woo audiences using Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic, but it didn't have the desired effect. The bubbly actress is still searching for that one big hit, which will once again cement her position as the uncrowned Rani (read Queen) of Bollywood.Rani was spotted shooting for her forthcoming untitled film (once again with the Yash Raj banner) in the village of Jagdevkalan, about 20kms from Amritsar last week. The actress, dressed in a colorful salwar-kameez looked pretty and must say in shape. What's more, in one of the shots, she was seen waving the tricolor and displaying her patriotic side (wonder if she is shouting Chak De India).Amritsar certainly seems to be the new hub of Yash Raj films as recently even SRK and newcomer Anushka Sharma were spotted shooting pivotal scenes for their film Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi directed by Aditya Chopra.Now with Rani also adding her colour and charm to this beautiful city, the residents of Amritsar coul...
