Malaika Arora to bag big bucks on New Year’s Eve

Sheila and Munni won’t clash this New Year. The two hottest item-bombs of tinseltown Katrina Kaif and Malaika Arora won’t be seen at loggerheads this New Year’s Eve as Katrina has opted out of the cat race. As per reports Katrina, who was offered a whopping sum to perform on her latest song ‘Sheila Ki Jawaani’ by two leading hotels, has turned down the offer in favour of some quality time with her family. The actress was reportedly offered a sum of Rs 3 crores but she has refused the proposal. Katrina who has had a very busy year promoting and acting on her films ‘Tees Maar Khan’ and ‘Raajneeti’, wants to take time off. The actress has extensive vacation plans and is looking to cut off from Tinseltown and spend time only with her family members and close friends. Reports suggest that two hotels in India and one abroad were looking to get Katrina. However, Kat is in the mood to travel.

The actress might be travelling to London to bring in the New Year. She also has plans to travel with her mother Sussana Mary Turcotte to her philanthropic organisation at Madhurai. Joining them will be Kat’s sister, Isabel.

And Kat is not alone in choosing family over money. Recently Priyanka Chopra too, had turned down a plum offer from a suburban hotel near the domestic airport. They were ready to pay her Rs.3 crore for a 10 minute performance as a star attraction, but Piggy Chops opted out.

Lara Dutta rocks at Knights & Angels

One actress in Bollywood can be termed as thinking man's actress and she is none other than the goddess of beauty, poise, grace and elan - Lara Dutta and she recently proved this fact yet again.

Lara appeared on the famous show - Sunsilk Presents Knights & Angels as the Blue gang of girls set the stage ablaze. Lara was seen at her stylish best. On the show, she not only cheered the girls with full enthusiasm but also recollected her days when she participated in the Miss Universe beauty pageant.

The Bollywood belle was so taken aback with the brilliant performances that she also joined them on stage to shake her leg to the tunes of Jhoom Barabar Jhoom and gave these young girls some tips on cheerleading.

Item Girls at Ice and Mint launch

Lara Dutta turns into a Bhojpuri Item Girl

When we saw this picture of Lara Dutta performing at an event over the weekend, we were just socked.

In fact it took us two minutes and more than some vigorous rubbing of our eyes to know that this is indeed the same beauty who sizzled on screen in item numbers like "Aisa Jadoo Daala Re" and “Zinda Hoon Main”.

What's with the outrageous costume darling? The complete mis-match makes her look like a B-grade Bhojpuri actress. May be Lara wanted to be at her comical best while performing at this Comedy Honors night. If that's the real reason, we are certainly having a good laugh.
