Anushka Sharma lip-locks Ranveer Singh
Anushka Sharma“We are just good friends” to “Yes we are in a relationship” is the norm how relationships take shape in B-town. And the same story indeed befits in newbie Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma’s case. After repeated denials, ‘Band Baaja Baarat’ sensation Ranveer Singh and his co-star Anushka Sharma, have finally made their affair out in open. Though not vocally, the duo have made it quite obvious by smooching each other at Shahid Kapoor’s birthday bash held recently. The couple walked hand-in-hand to the venue, shook legs together on the dance floor and after a few glasses of wine, they locked lips.

Their candid smooch grabbed all eye balls present at the venue. But the hot couple had least inhibitions.

And why not, after setting the screen on fire with their hot lip lock in ‘Band Baaja Baarat’, replicating the same in real life wouldn’t have been a task.

Anushka Sharma buys her own pad
Anushka SharmaJust one film old, Anushka Sharma is currently on a high! The actress, who made her dream debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan, has recently bought a new pad – a three bedroom flat at Yari Road, Andheri in Mumbai.

Well, even though the actress has bought her dream home, Anushka is hardly able to enjoy the comforts of her house as she is quite preoccupied with her outdoor shoots.

A close source said, “Anushka has been on a house hunting spree for a while now. Last month, she finally bought a three-bedroom apartment at Yari Road in Mumbai. Anushka shifted base to Mumbai a couple of years ago from Bangalore. Earlier, she stayed at the army colony in Malad. This is the first time that the actress has bought a house on her own and is very excited about it.”

By the way, when enquired the petite actress, Anushka confirmed the news and said, “I feel good about being able to buy a house at the age of 21. However, I am dying to be at home as I have had no time to actually enjoy it. First, I was away in the US for 40 days and now I am in Bangkok for a month.”

Anushka Sharma looking for real life Surinder Sahni
Model turned actress Anushka Sharma, who debuted opposite Shah Rukh Khan in “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi”, reveals that she would like her dream guy to be like Surinder Sahni, the middle-class nice guy played by the superstar in the film. She also says she never dreamt of becoming an actress.

“I would love to have someone like Surinder. He should be a nice man. I believe in having a man who is beautiful and strong from inside. Inner beauty is most important. But I found Suri to be handsome and good-looking too,” Anushka said.

Directed by Aditya Chopra, “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi” is the story of a mismatched couple played by Shah Rukh and Anushka and how the two of them find love in the backdrop of a dance competition.

The model-turned-actress considers herself “fortunate” to have landed a debut with Yash Raj Films and, that too, opposite Shah Rukh, but Anushka says she had never planned to become a Bollywood heroine. “I never dreamt of becoming an actress; so it is not a dream come true for me,” she said.

Anushka, who is under a three-film contract with the Yash Raj banner, said she would be concentrating on those projects for now. “I have signed a three-film contract with Yash Raj. But I am free to do any other project if I wish,” she clarified.

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi music hits top spots
The music of the Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is climbing to the top spot in the music charts.

“When we put in a lot of hardwork to make our music we hope that the audience will like our music. We are very happy that people are enjoying the music,” said Salim and Suleiman, music directors of the movie.

“We made the song on Surinder Sahani’s character,” said Jaideep Sahni the lyricist. Sahni says the music is inspired by the characters in the film. From the music to the lyrics there is attention in every detail.

SRK’s transformation from the comically awkward man next door to the man with the right moves has only added to the charm. “We composed the songs according to the mood and flavor of the script narrated by Aditya Chopra”, said Jaideep Sahni.

“If songs that are composed according to the script become a hit, it is bound to make us happy,” said Salim Suleiman, music director.

Music is usually the first step to any film’s success. If the music translates into popularity, success will become easy for Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.

Shah Rukh Khan to come in double role

Shah Rukh Khan has not had a single release this year and has been in the news for all the wrong reasons. Shah Rukh Khan came into news because of the famous spat with Salman Khan at Katrina Kaif’s birthday party. He also had a lackluster stint as host of Television game show, Kya Aap Panchvi pass Se Tez hai.

Now his career is looking up again with a double role in Aditya Chopra’s next flick, ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’. Shah Rukh Khan is not new to double roles. He had played doubles in ‘Duplicate’ and last year’s superhit, “Om Shanti Om”.

In ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ he plays the roles of a simpleton and a hippie. It is a light hearted comedy inspired by yesteryear’s director Hrishikesh Mukherji’s Amol Palekar starrer, superhit movie “Golmaal”. It is also offering a launch pad to new actress Anushka Sharma.
