‘Thank god item numbers are out’
Manoj Bajpayee is glad that item numbers, which were ruining the storytelling format, are finally out of business.
“I'm glad that item numbers are out now. Thank god they are out…They were somewhere ruining the whole storytelling format. Whatever changes the industry is undergoing, it's good... whether it’s for the mainstream or for the parallel cinema,” said Manoj. The actor also feels that somewhere the audience has also changed.
He said, “The audience has changed over the years and now, they are showing interest in real things. They want to buy a ticket which is convincing and reliable. That’s why Hollywood films are doing so well. The audience has matured. They just don’t want to go and watch films only in the name of entertainment.”
To me, the Housefull franchise is as precious as the Khiladi franchise. Action and comedy are what I always enjoyed. I could do these two genres for the rest of my life. |AKSHAY KUMAR

Kylie Jenner gets new tattoo
Kylie Jenner has got a brand new inking by tattoo artist JonBoy at JonBoy Tattoo here.
The 18-year-old star had her right pinky finger inked by JonBoy over the weekend. She let fans take a look at the painful process by uploading some videos on Snapchat.
She was seen lying on a chair as the tattoo artist started to work on the body art. JonBoy told Kylie that because “you're skin and bones”, the process would be “so painful”.
In another video, Kylie told JonBoy that she would ink him.
“I'm going to do it for you,” she said to which the artist replied: “It has to be perfect.”
After her tattoo was done, she took over the tattoo gun and gave JonBoy a tattoo of a small K letter and a tiny crown. The two sported matching tattoos, which turned out to be a tiny ‘M’.
