Sonam wants to direct films
Sonam Kapoor has expressed her desire to direct films. Before starting her career as an actress, Sonam worked as an assistant director under Sanjay leela Bhansali for Black, which was released in early 2005. “Apart from being an actress, I want to direct films. May be this will happen after ten years,” said Sonam. The 28-year-old actress made her acting debut with Bhansali's Saawariya, which failed at the box office. After a string of flops including Thank You, Mausam and Players, Sonam is now gearing up for Anand l Rai's Raanjhanaa.
Madhuri Dixit interrupted the shoot of Jhalak Dikhla Jaa to rescue seven puppies who were struggling for their lives. The 46-year-old was at Filmistan Studio with her husband Shriram Nene for the shoot of her show when she saw seven puppies drenched from the previous night's rain. Madhuri interrupted the shoot, and she along with Nene and the show's director Saahil Chhabria, immediately contacted PETA for help and stayed with the puppies until help arrived. “It’s been raining cats and dogs and many puppies and kittens are now in need of good homes. Madhuri Dixit's kind deed will inspire many,” said PETA India's Sachin Bangera.
Hathaway is the best-dressed bride
Kiera Knightley and Anne Hathaway feature on the coveted list of Vanity Fair magazine's ten best-dressed brides list. The two are joined by fellow stars Drew Barrymore and Jessica Biel on the list. The list features a cross-section from the worlds of cinema, fashion, media and show business. Knightley chose a recycled years-old knee-length dress over a new ball gown for her wedding dress. Her understated bridal ensemble of a tweed jacket over the simple dress, matched with flats and sunglasses makes for an unconventional choice. In contrast, Hathaway went for a gauzy off-shoulder Valentino wedding gown complete with lace veil and train that seemed to have been taken off Princess Diaries.
