This young actor, known for his action and dancing skills, has had a major showdown with his director, with whom he has collaborated many times in the past. The actor, who seems to have grown too big for his boots, has been throwing tantrums on the sets. Recently, on an overseas schedule, he yelled at the director in front of the entire unit and pointed out that he didn't like the way the stunts were being choreographed. He also wanted to sit in on the edits of the film. At a recent party, he was overheard telling his friends that his days of collaborating with the writer-director are over.
The wife of the biggest superstar of the country were in Tramp' nightclub in London. She lives life king' size and it is possibly that one of her best friends, who has superhero' spending habits may have been with her and her group of friends as they were all having a girlie holiday at the time. After a night out of illegal substances and champagne drinking, they all became so rowdy that they were thrown out of the club. Upon hearing this, the superstar in question went to London. He read the riot act out to the wife and looked after the kids. The other newly tattoed superstar also went to London for a few days and both men bought them all back safe and sound.
blind item 4:A shy star son and a south star.
A shy star son, known to shield himself from the media because of immense insecurities about his receding hairline is rumored to have been spotted at the notorious red light district of Mumbai. It is said that he arrived in a luxury car and pulled up in one of the many different lanes in this locality in the middle of one night.
The lane that he pulled up in exclusively catered to peoples with tastes for the transgendered variety of sex workers. And aptly titled "Gandu bageecha". One of the workers there who divulged this piece information stated that after picking up someone of his choice and inviting him/her into the car, he pointed a (gun?) to the prostitute's head and then got his demands fulfilled. The details of the demands were also shared with me but I guess its best not to go there.
The actor remains aloof to the media only appearing for promotional purposes, for the one off odd films that he signs. With a dwindling career, a dwindling hairline and supposedly dwindling finances - he remains single. He is supposed to have a brother who is also rumored to swing both ways, however nothing has been confirmed or denied by the actors in question though a lot has been speculated about their sexuality over the years.
A strange turn out considering the father of these boys - a shining star of the yesteryear was rumoured to be a complete play boy- has been married twice, has a bunch of kids, and gave it all up to become a sadhu. He hastily exited grihastya ashram for Sanyas in his mid fiftees and joined a popular spiritual movement, which by any standards is just another corporation scamming white people and spiritual enthusiasts with money for donations.
I guess a sense of confusion seems to run in the family.
Another case that came to light about a star wandering in the shanties of Mumbai was about this southern sensation, an actor that hit Bollywood a few years ago in an extremely popular semi-patriotic multi-starrer. And even though he has appeared in only a couple of Bollywood projects since, he seems to carry his southern stardom and a chip on his shoulder wherever he goes. The actor is already popular for his temper tantrums, anyone who wants to get in touch with him is advised not to call him post 8pm - the time when he is busy polishing off bottles of booze, usually paid for by production.
Recently on the sets of another multi starrer the actor is supposed to be playing a pivotal role in, the actor demanded exclusivity on every thing, even though the rest of the star cast (with reasonably big names) was being treated democratically. The producers were fed up of his unreasonable demands and constant complaints but kept up face as the director was completely convinced about him for that particular role.
First he refused to attend rehearsal with the full cast because he didn't want to face one of his ex-girlfriends, a blue blooded actress, who is known to have dumped him after a tumultuous tryst with his huge ego, flaring anger and a love for the bottle.
So he is said to have blackmailed the director into rescheduling the entire programme, much to the dislike of another southern actress - a part of the cast, who is supposed to have been dumped by him after some ungentlemanly behavior on the actors part.
The southy actress wanted to behave professionally and got on with the show without complaint but the actor misunderstood this gesture as an act of submission and is said to have constantly taken digs at the southy actress.
So after making production run around for his special demands on an already difficult film set, the actor is supposed to have refused to show up for his dubbing sessions once the film hit post production. Apparently unhappy about the fact that he was not booked into a hotel of his liking ( a 5 star) even though he was flown into Bombay only for a couple of hours of work. So after springing demand after expensive demand, making the production run helter skelter, changing his air tickets and extending his stay, even though his work was finished, the drunk actor demanded a car for himself in the middle of the night. And though production was not obliged to do anything anymore, they did it for the sake of peace and good relations. He, then, is supposed to have instructed his half asleep driver to go to a small and filthy slum with zig-zag lanes, and disappeared there for a few hours whilst his driver waited. It is not clear what the actor was doing in a down trodden area in the middle of the night but according to reports he came back as intoxicated as he had left and caught his flight the next morning by a cats whisker. The production house has sworn to not to ever cast him again.
It is a pity that this actor is gaining such a reputation, as he has a genuine spark of talent that could be explored only if he allowed himself to behave. But then again, any measure of popularity comes with its own baggage, and often people in the spotlight have to go beyond themselves to feel normal and anonymous - just like this writer.
