Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor on Comedy Nights With Kapil Photos pg#4

Hrithik Roshan is heading to an undisclosed location abroad for his medical treatment Saturday night. Contrary to reports that he will be accompanied by his parents, a source says one of his friends will travel with the actor.

The "Krrish" star has been suffering bouts of headache. In July this year, Hrithik had undergone a brain surgery for removal of a clot at the Hinduja Hospital.

Confirming Hrithik's travel plans, his father Rakesh Roshan said: "Hrithik is leaving on Saturday. He will be going with a friend."

When asked if Hrithik would be accompanied by his parents, Rakesh Roshan said, "We'll join him if there is a need for us to do so."

In the meanwhile, Hrithik's next project "Shuddhi" has been postponed to July 2014.

A source close to the project said: "'Shuddhi' is a story of reincarnation. Films about rebirth are always tricky to pull off. The script of 'Shuddhi' needs more work. Hrithik's health is not the issue here, the script needs to be polished."

Being produced by Karan Johar and being directed by Karan Malhotra, the film also stars Kareena Kapoor.

Priyanka Chopra has a long list of benchmarks that she has set for her prospective life partner but she says she wants that her man should be a male version of herself.

"I have a very long list and very high standards. He has to be a gentleman, he has to be intelligent, someone I respect and funny, not stupid funny but witty funny, charming. Basically, a male version of me," the 31-year-old said here Friday at a GUESS store where she was unveiled as the new GUESS girl.

Priyanka added that it does not matter whether he is an actor or not.

"He needs to be an achiever, it doesn't matter if he is an actor or not an actor. I would never respect a guy who is not an achiever," she said.

Priyanka has recently been unveiled as the new face of global fashion brand GUESS.

She will soon be seen in Yash Raj Films' "Gunday."

Priyanka Chopra is the first Bollywood actress to become the face of global fashion brand GUESS, and the actress considers it a big deal.

"Being a GUESS girl for me is a really big deal because the most iconic beautiful women have been part of these campaigns. It's one of the most iconic brands in the world," the 31-year-old said here Friday at a GUESS store where she was unveiled as the new GUESS girl.

"When I went to New York this time, to pick up the magazines and saw Julia Roberts in the front and myself on the back, I was like 'woah'," she added.

International singer Bryan Adams shot Priyanka for the campaign and she reveals "When they first told me that Bryan was shooting it, I thought there must be some other person by the same name."

"I couldn't think that somebody is so talented to be a singer and a photographer. But then I found out that he has done a lot of campaigns for GUESS. They showed me the pictures of one of their most recent campaigns. And Bryan knew of me and I knew of Bryan. He comes to India so often that he is now half Indian," Priyanka said.

Priyanka, who went international with her singing talent by launching her first single "In my city", had released her second single "Exotic" a few months back. She is now working on her third song.

On the Bollywood front, she will soon be seen in Yash Raj Films' new project "Gunday" with Arjun Kapoor and Ranveer Singh.

In a career of almost 25 years, Aamir Khan has seen successes and flops. But it is his failures that he credits for his life's "biggest learnings", saying that it doesn't matter to him if his films make Rs.100 crore or more but he gets "upset" if people lose money from a film which rides on his name.

"There are a lot of films I did that didn't make me happy, but it is also true that you don't always get success despite all efforts. When I look back and see these films, I feel that I've learnt a lot from my unsuccessful films. Those are my biggest learnings," Aamir said here.

"My failures have taught me as much as my successful films, and they are equally special to me," the 48-year-old said at the India Today Group's Agenda Aaj Tak Conclave here Wednesday.

The ace actor-filmmaker opened up about his efforts to juggle between films and a TV show, his "guilt" over not being able to spent time with his family, the Khan rivalry in Bollywood and more.

Aamir, who dabbles in films of different kinds, says he undergoes just one pressure when he signs a project - and it has nothing to do with numbers.

"I feel that whoever buys a ticket to my film, doesn't go back feeling that it was a waste. The audience should feel entertained. That's all. I don't get into numbers. It has to touch hearts what money it makes, that doesn't matter to me," Aamir said and explained how he remembers his favourite movies "Pyaasa" and "Mughal E Azam" for their craft and not for how much money they made.

But does it upset him when his films don't do commercially well?

"I don't like it if anyone suffers loss," he said.

"I feel upset as I feel people should get their money back from a film, and make at least 10 to 15 percent profit at least. Whether they make Rs. 200 crore or Rs. 400 crore, I am not interested in it. But I like my films to be commercially viable," he said.

On the Bollywood front, Aamir currently awaits the release of "Dhoom 3", which stars him as a villain. The much-awaited film, the third in the popular franchise of Yash Raj Films, releases Dec 20.

Having fond memories of visiting Peshawar as a teenager with his father, Shah Rukh Khan harbours a hope to take his three children to visit his family's hometown, and hopes ties between India and Pakistan become "friendlier" and "family-like".

The Hindi film superstar spoke fondly of Peshawar when Pakistan's former foreign minister Hina Rabbani Khar asked him about visiting her country, at India Today Group's Agenda Aaj Tak Conclave here Wednesday.

"I'd love to! My family is from Peshawar and few of them still live there. I would love to come to Peshawar and bring my children over because my father took me when I was 15 or 16. I still have some of the greatest memories of the time I spent with my father in Peshawar, Karachi and Lahore. I want to take my kids there," said Shah Rukh.

The 47-year-old was born in Delhi, but his late father, Taj Mohammad Khan, came from Peshawar. He was a freedom fighter.

Shah Rukh, who is married to Punjabi girl Gauri, has three children - Aryan, Suhana and AbRam. AbRam is their baby through surrogacy.

Shah Rukh hopes that the two countries forget their differences and join forces to have "the greatest of things possible for each other".

"I hope with whatever issues and stresses we have... I hope we become friends, we become friendlier, we become like a family and one together," he said, adding how he learnt the true essence "mehmaan-nawaazi" during his last visit to Pakistan.

The actor believes the people of both nations harbour no ill-will for each other.

"When I travel abroad, I notice it even more, because sitting in your nation you can't make out. But when I go to London, Dubai or US, you don't even get to know who is from where - there's no cultural difference. I think people should forget (the past) and continue to be what we used to be," he added.

Actor Aditya Roy Kapur has denied reports that he is dating his "Aashiqui 2" co-star Shraddha Kapoor.

"Everybody asks me this question but I chose to keep mum or say no comments. All I can say is I am single and not dating Shraddha. She is a good friend," Aditya told IANS.

The actors were paired in "Aashiqui 2" which turned out to be a successful film and the actor says life has certainly changed post the release.

"In a professional level things have changed. Now I have more opportunities to work, people know me, they recognize me. It's a good thing but I don't want to sound like I am making an issue out of nothing. All I can say is I am in a happy space and thankful to God," he said.

Actor Aditya Roy Kapur, who is working under filmmaker Habib Faisal's direction in "Daawat-e-Ishq", says he is one of the finest in the industry. He also has praises for his co-star Parineeti Chopra.

Faisal's earlier works include "Do Dooni Chaar" and "Ishaqzaade".

"It's a pleasure to work with Habib. He is one of the finest filmmakers in the industry. It makes a big difference to work with such a filmmaker," said Aditya.

"His vision and the way he shoots his films is different. We have finished shooting for our film in Lucknow and Hyderabad and the rest of it will be shot in Mumbai," he added.

Praising Parineeti, he said: "She is full of fun and she is very spontaneous. We are having a good time shooting for the film. The film is a light-hearted love story."

Parineeti has earlier worked with Faisal in "Ishaqzaade", but it's a first-time experience for Aditya.
