Madhu Sharma on 7th heaven as her movie completes 50 days at box office!

Madhu Sharma is on seventh heaven these days and rightly so. The last weekend her runaway hit movie “Sindhanai Sei” completed 50 days at the box office!

Sindhanai Sei continues to do quite well in theaters, something which is reflected in the box office figures which are talking only in crores. Madhu has received enormous audience appreciation and critical acclaim for her role in the movie of a rich, independent girl who falls in love.

'Sindhanai Sei' is the remake of the Telugu hit 'Bheebhatsam' with Yuvan and Madhu Sharma playing the lead roles. The story is about how Yuvan meets Madhu Sharma and the two of them fall in love. Marriage happens but matrimony is not a bed of roses. Madhu Sharma expects a life of happiness and luxury which Yuvan is not able to provide. Disillusioned and dissatisfied, she walks out of the marriage leaving Yuvan seething in anger.

After having conquered our hearts in M.S. Raju’s film “Pournami” which portrayed her as a traditional Andhra girl, her character in Sindhanai Sei is a complete contrast, providing a refreshing change to her previous role. Which proves the depth in her acting skills.

Apart from being a gifted actor, Madhu also has a black belt in Taekwondo martial arts. The lesser known side of Madhu comes as a simple Mumbai girl by heart, who loves watching T.V, dancing and gardening! Her fitness mantra includes daily yoga & exercises.

Known for her glamour doll image, and proud of it, Madhu has now set her eyes on performance-oriented films and is now looking out for more challenging roles. And it looks as if it’s working already. Great going Madhu!

Kalpana was the 'lady with the golden voice'.She has a uniquely soulful, raw, high-pitched voice, a voice that had its own unique space,a voice with pure soul. Her tantalizing foot tapping concert at Blue frog was a total sell out. Her trademark singing passion and a speed of delivery that would wear out wannabes her age. This was undoubtedly one of my best concerts. To perform with the living legend was truly remarkable.The band together belt out a brilliant synthesis of folk and contemporary music.With her musical charm in this album-MASSICAL, she has transcended the barriers of caste, creed, language and nationality..She is going much beyond her Bhojpuri image; she has gone a step further that is sure to get the entire nation ecstatic. This Assamese girl is the darling of the North Indian belt and has been christened the uncrowned BHOJPURI QUEEN.She has already sung more than 3000 songs for 22 languages.She has a burning sense of traditional rhythm and groove and deeply rooted in Nirgun,Purvi,Kajree,Pachra(devi geet) folk forms.

This album-MASSICAL will give fusion aficionados to rejoice this year. Says Kalpana-In one track Mumbai Shuffle-I have sung tribal songs from Assam.The rhythm and groove is the same in Africa where they like to enjoy music and dance is a major factor, they are only different geographically.

In the other track, Massical I have fused Banarasi thumri with Goalparia Lok Geet of Assam.To quote Trilok Gurtu’s own words,“Music has to be there for everyone-it is the masses who have to decide about music and not the classes.The classes always have the money.But you always have to reach the masses.That’s why I say music is Massical,not classical.”

This international release of MASSICAL and the extensive touring plans and prestigious venues in the coming year reflects Kalpana’s desire to build an audience in the rest of the world.

Sujit Kumar celebrates his 75th birthday with best friends

Together forever, never apart, maybe in distance, but never in heart; that is a maxim which best friends Jeetendra and Rakesh Roshan seem to be living by. And this was evident a few days ago during the birthday celebrations of their other best friend, veteran actor and filmmaker Sujit Kumar.

Kumar, who has produced big-budget Bollywood films like ‘Champion’, ‘Aetbaar’ and ‘Khel’ has also acted in hundreds of Hindi films and been a superstar in Bhojpuri cinema. He celebrated his 75th birthday at a surprise party that his friends threw for him recently. The occasion, complete with all their friends, including producer Saawan Kumar Tak, was celebrated at a suburban restaurant and even had Kumar’s favourite pineapple cake.

Speaking about the day, the maker says, "It was a splendid way to bring in my birthday. There is nothing more I could have asked for, than to go over the good old days with my friends." He adds with a laugh, though, "But this doesn't mean I'm old. There's still a whole new innings for me to play."

The trio, Jeetendra, Rakesh and Sujit, who practically grew up together, have been pals for ages and catch up with each other regularly, still exercising together at a common gym at times. Now, if that isn't friendship, what is!

The bodacious beauty, who is getting ready to announce her debut film, has been exercising religiously over the past weeks, led by her personal trainer, Viraj Samalkar. And the results seem to be showing.

 Not that she needed to, but Narmmadaa has already lost around four to five kilos of weight under Samalkar’s guidance. Viraj has put her on a strict regimen of dieting and exercise.

 “I’m very particular about working out and sometimes even manage to workout at the break of dawn.” Though the newbie says, she prefers exercising “on warm summer mornings, rather than these dull rainy ones”. While she has her mind set on her health, Samalkar makes her do thirty crunches every alternate day that in her own words, are “the most tedious part of the regimen.”

 But if there is one thing that Narmmadaa has no complaints about, it’s her diet. A mix of carbohydrates and proteins, along with lots of vegetable juices and chicken, she simply loves binging out on it, while still maintaining her 25 inch waist. “The diet has left my hair and skin glowing gorgeously,” she says with a smile.
