Q Is it true that you were moving around with a bottle of milk in Las Vegas?
Since I’m very conscious of what I eat and drink, I am habituated to drinking a glass of milk after my dinner. I just shot for Short Term Shaadi in Las Vegas and I don’t think I have ever felt better. I hope I look better too in the film — I have not seen myself in it yet.

Q Do you faithfully follow your dietician Rujuta Diwekar’s diet?
I have just come back from a 15-day holiday; and even there I followed her diet. I also ate the chocolates and the cheeses and I think I still look fit for someone who has holidayed for 15 days. I’m endorsing Rujuta’s second book because I believe in her work — the results are for everyone to see. To me Rujuta is not a dietician nor a friend, but a magician. Thanks to her diet, I’m glowing because I’m eating what I like.

Q Do you think Bollywood celebrities today are very dependent on dieticians?
Bollywood on the whole is on a diet where they don’t eat carbohydrates because they find it easy to follow. Most dieticians will tell you to stop eating rice and roti and you will notice change in your body. However, Rujuta has never told me not to eat roti or rice. I eat everything in the right proportion. You should eat what you want to eat but opt for half of it. Earlier, I would finish a 12-inch pizza all by myself but now I occasionally eat three slices and before that I eat a bowl of salad. So I’m having what I want and yet not putting on weight.

Q It is said that you have also recommended your diets to your co-stars?
While shooting a song for Ra.One, my spot boy Prakash would get me a bowl of makhanas at four o’clock sharp. Shah Rukh asked me what I was having and I gave him some to try, saying my dietician had advised me to have them as they were rich in calcium and iron. Ever since then, Shah Rukh has been addicted to them. Now the entire industry knows I eat phool makhanas and Shah Rukh, Tusshar et al are all having them.

Q And Saif?
Saif has always been fit; he is more fit now thanks to Agent Vinod. He is also into Rujuta’s diet, and he does yoga so I guess my influence has rubbed off him.

Q A few days back Shah Rukh’s look for Ra.One was released. When do we see your look?
It is a strategy by Shah Rukh — first they will reveal the look of Ra.One, then the kid. My look will take time.

It would actually be an awkward situation if ex-lovers happen to cross each other paths.

Lately, Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapur caught in such embarrassed situation when both crossed each other paths during an award function.

Kareena Kapoor was walking with her close friend Lovely Singh and secretary Zahid whereas Shahid Kapur was coming from the conflicting direction. Kareena act as if as if she has not seen her ex beau and headed directly passing Shahid. By the time, he could comprehend that it was Kareena who crossed him; she was by now away from him. But he could not defy his temptation on looking back at her.

A source informs, “Kareena was planned to perform at the event and had just completed her rehearsals. Kareena decided to take a walk backstage while Shahid (who was also hosting a segment) was making his way towards the same area. Kareena looked like she didn’t notice him, but Shahid was quite stunned to see her.”

Adds another source, “It is sad to see that they can’t even switch a polite hello, though they were once in a relationship. Neither of them has come clean on the reasons for the break-up. But even Kareena’s manager Zahid, who once also managed Shahid, didn’t suffer the need to exchange any small talk with him.”

Kareena always continues that she enquires Shahid about his well-being but we wonder this is how she cares about him.

Mumbai, Oct 28: Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor promoted her upcoming movie ”Kurbaan” at a gala event here last evening.

Set in the United States, ”Kurbaan” is a romantic thriller with terrorism as its backdrop.

Kareena said that the film provides a balanced dose of love, intensity and emotions.

“”Kurbaan” is a very different kind of film, it is more like an English movie. As far as the issue of tagline is concerned, I can say that it is because the film contains lot of intensity and emotions, it has gritty,” said Kareena

The film tries to depict the post bombing effect on the daily lives of Muslim population living in the US after September 11 attacks on the World Trade Towers.

On this score, Kareena said that though the film deals with militancy, it is a romantic thriller.

“It has nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks on World Trade Centre.  Though it has terrorism as a backdrop but it is love story,” she added.

She also promoted this film on a private FM radio station.

Directed by a debutant Rensil D”Silva, the film stars Saif Ali Khan, Dia Mirza, Kiron Kher, Vivek Oberoi and Om Puri.

Salim Merchant and Sulaiman Merchant have composed the music for the songs penned by famed lyricist and screenplay writer Prasoon Joshi who is also renowned in the world of advertising and marketing.

The film is slated to release November 27

"She gives me complete freedom when it comes to dressing her up. She is very experimental and tries to change her look in every movie. The best part is that she carries herself so well that everything looks good on her," Miguel told IANS over phone from Mumbai.

Miguel is styling Bipasha for Sudipto Chattopadhyaya’s "Pankh", in which she plays an imaginary character. The designer admits that he initially had thought Bipasha was "broad-framed", but his perception changed after working with her.

"Initially I felt Bipasha was broad-framed but after I worked with her, I realised the fact that she has lost a lot of weight and now is svelte and sexy," he said. The Mumbai-based designer says Bipasha’s look in the movie would be a total surprise package. "This time you will see Bipasha in a new avatar as she plays an imaginary character. She has a completely new look," Miguel said.
