Home is where the pool is

When superstars go house-hunting for the first home that they will set up together, their needs are not much different from yours and mine.


Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif

With a few swimming pools thrown in, that is. And so when Ranbir and Katrina found their way to Kishor (Bada Saab and Hakkasan) Bajaj's residential building at Pali Hill to look for an apartment, no one was surprised.

After all, the entire exclusive building in which Bajaj has occupied the penthouse is said to be the last word in luxury-living and only available to very few.

Bajaj and his wife Kintu are long time aesthetes who've in the past been known to commission architects like the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright, trained architect Nari Gandhi to build their Lonavala getaway.

"I don't know what style the apartment that Ranbir and Katrina liked has been done in, " said our source, "But from the happy looks on their faces, it appears that they like what they saw and their search is over!" For the uninitiated, the building is in Pali Hill, very close to Sushmita Sen's residence.


On the Cannes Red Carpet

And even as PC's recent outings drew attention to her bold new sartorial style and clearly display her ambition to outpace Rihanna, three other stars are polishing up their Cannes red carpet outfits even as we speak. The svelte Mrs A Bachchan, the stylish Ms S Kapoor the sultry Ms F Pinto who must, as we speak, be going through trial and error with battalions of fashion experts to get their looks just right when they step out next week in Cannes on the red carpet internationally as L'Oreal's ambassadors'.


Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor, Freida Pinto and Katrina Kaif

Which makes us wonder if Katrina Kaif, the Bollywood star who followed the afore-mentioned actresses as the fourth Indian ambassador for the beauty brand has resolved her date issues (or was it Ranbir's?). Will she be at Cannes too, or was that a polite way of sidestepping the issue by the star-or the cosmetic brand?



New star in town

It was quite a party on Wednesday night for the launch of Armaan Jain's debut Bollywood film trailer 'Lekar Hum Deewana Dil', directed by Arif Ali, Imtiaz Ali's brother, and produced by Saif Ali Khan and Dinesh Vijan's Illuminati Films.


Armaan Jain

Co-hosted by Armaan at Vijan's Bandra home, guests included Homi and Anaita Adajania, Arjun Kapoor, Huma Qureshi, Sunil Lulla, Pritam and the film's heroine Deeksha Seth. The excitement over Armaan had begun that morning, the moment Karan Johar had seen the trailer and tweeted his praise. After all, this was no ordinary actor being launched, Armaan is the grandson of no less than the industry's showman Raj Kapoor, (his youngest daughter Rima's son) and cousin to Ranbir, Karishma and Kareena. What's more, industry insiders say that AR Rahman has outdone himself with the music.

We have known young Armaan from his kindergarten days and have always known that someday this progeny of the Kapoors and the Sobo Jains (from his father's side) will be a star.

And the trailer proves what we have always suspected: that he has inherited the famous Kapoor zest and vitality, along with the Jain subtlety and sophistication-a combination that will set him apart from the crop.

Here's looking at you Armaan.



Home Alone
Something pretty weird appears to be going on with this otherwise straight-laced, and square middle-aged film couple: everyone appears to be leaving home!

It began with their DIL, then their son and now even their own daughter-no one wants to stay home with them! And whereas reasons as intriguing as bullying tactics and tight-fistedness are said to be responsible for this mass exodus, the most bizarre story is that one of the family members was asked to leave by the fitness instructor'!
That's right: limber up, do ten sit ups and leg curls and walk right thought that door!

For the last, am tempted to say the Bachchans.. But doesn't fit. 🤔


I think AJ will be a big star. Don't know why, but he won't. Got an interesting face, and if the current lot can be rich & famous , he can be. Infact he already is. 😆

There was an article some time back about Roshans and their daughter being asked to leave the home by someone. It's not really a blind!

Life coaches are not fitness instructors. Get educated journos.. or at least buy a dictionary.

Oh yes! Life coaches. I was trying to recollect the name but was only remembering psychologists.😆
