Salman Khan has been part of the biggest blockbusters Bollywood has ever seen - from the most recent 'Ready' and 'Dabangg' going all the way back to 'Hum Aapke Han Kaun' and 'Maine Pyaar Kiya'. So which of these movies does he feel most proud to be part of?
Well, it's not a movie showcasing him but one that focuses on a bunch of kids that's Salman's choice. Sallu's first movie as a producer, 'Chillar Party', which releases this weekend, is what gets the highest praise from him.
Salman posted on his Twitter page late yesterday, after the starry prermiere of the movie, "Saw Chillar Party with the chillarrrrr party. This is by far the best movie that I have ever been a part of."
But close as it is to Salman's heart, the star seems to be willing to accept all sorts of reactions to the movie.
"U see it n if u like it publicize it, no better publicity than mouth publicity. Ann if u nt (don't like it), rip it apart. U have the rite n no body else," he added.
Salman's family as well as his B'wood friends including Kangana Ranaut, Arshad Warsi, Amrita Rao and Aftab Shivdasani certainly seemed to enjoy the first day first show

Hrithik, Katrina, Farhan, Abhay and Kalki are off on a six-city adventure
Reel-life is imitating real-life for the 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' team - they're off on a six-city road trip in a black Range Rover, with Delhi as their final destination.
The co-owner of Excel Entertainment, Ritesh Sidhwani, that produced the film came up with the idea with his marketing team, to keep the promotion in harmony with the basic story of the film, revealed director Zoya Akhtar.
"It was Ritesh's idea. The idea was to keep the promotion in synch with the story of the film," Zoya said Thursday at Mehboob Studio, from where they set off for the trip.
'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' is a film on road trip, which shows how lives of three men - Abhay Deol, Farhan Akhtar and Hrithik Roshan - change when they go for a holiday.
Katrina Kaif and Kalki Koechlin played the female leads in the film.
The team goes through five more cities - Surat, Baroda, Ahmadabad, Udaipur, Jaipur and Delhi.
"We are very charged up. It's very exciting. We would get to see very good places. It's a great company so I am very excited," said Farhan, who is the co-owner of Excel Entertainment.
Hrithik said: "For the first time I am going for such a long road trip in India. When we were shooting in Spain, then only we thought that we should do something like this in India. That's what happening now. It's exciting."
Actor Abhay Deol had made a almost similar road trip in India while doing director Dev Benegal's film 'Road, Movie'.
When asked how different it would be this time, he said, "In the 'Road Movie' I was driving a truck and here a Range Rover so it would be more luxurious trip I believe."

It's just been a few months into his wedding, but Samir Soni already has a new family member - an adopted stray dog he has named Casper.
Samir adopted the sick street pup sometime ago, and has nursed him back to health. He has decided to keep Casper in his house.
"I adopted Casper few months back when he was just a pup. Actually, one of my friends got him to me in a very piteous state. I was so touched when I saw the small little puppy. He was wounded and was unable to walk properly, I knew had to do something for him and spontaneously decided that I had to adopt him," said Samir, who was last seen in 'Bigg Boss 4'.
However, he feared the reaction of his wife, actress-turned-jewellery designer Neelam.
"I was unsure of how Neelam would react to a pet being at home, but today he has become an integral part of our family and we can't imagine life without him," said Samir, adding that it was Neelam who named the dog Casper.

It's cleared the way for his second marriage to Nayanthara
A principal court in Chennai, India, has granted choreographer/actor/director Prabhu Deva and his wife Latha a divorce by mutual consent. Prabhu Deva and Latha got married in 1995 and have two children.
The two had been living separately for the past two years, after Prabhu Deva became involved with Southern actress Nayanthara. He even admitted that he intended to marry Nayathara.
There were bitter feuds between Prabhu Deva and Latha during this time. She filed a petition in a family court to get her relationship with him back on track. She even went on a hunger strike and filed a second petition to prevent Nayathara and Prabhu Deva from giving joint interviews.
Now things appear to have been resolved between the two. As per the divorce agreement with Latha, he has paid Rs 10 lakh to her as permanent alimony. The actor also transferred property in Anna Nagar along with two cars to her name.
He has also transferred land at Injambakkam village and his property at Alekhyas Kaushik Meadows in the names of his two children. Both children are under Latha's custody, but the court has granted Prabhu Deva access to them as he wishes. He also agreed to bear cost of their education, marriage and other expenses in future.
Both Latha and Prabhu Deva have agreed not to make any claims against each other in the future.

"I am responsible," the hunk admits on Simi Garewal's show
it was an open secret for the longest time and now John Abraham has finally confessed the real reason that he and long-time girlfriend Bipasha Basu broke up.
John appears on Simi Garewal's new show Simi Selects 'India's Most Desirable' in an episode that will air tomorrow (July 10) and in it he takes responsibility for the split. "I was not ready to commit when the relationship needed culmination,” he said admitting that he wasn’t ready to get married to Bipasha even after all those years of being together.
"It was a beautiful relationship but it doesn't exist anymore," he added. John also said that he had “grown out of the relationship”.
“I’m probably the reason that this relationship didn’t work,” he admitted to Simi.
John went on to say, "The silence lasted too long and I guess it was time (to break up). I’m solely responsible for the split — I did not want to get married.”
He also called the breakup an 'amicable' one, and said that they were never disloyal in the relationship. "We had decided, if we ever parted ways it, won’t be for another man or woman,” he said.
He went on to say that to be on his own was "painful" but "you have to move on."
The former couple first worked together in 'Jism' (2003), and later in 'Madhoshi' (2004) and 'Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal' (2007).

He tells us why the movie is very close to his heart
Shahid Kapoor says he is sentimentally attached to his actor father Pankaj Kapoor's directorial debut 'Mausam'.
Speaking at an event in Mumbai, Shahid said that apart from playing the lead role in the film, he has helped in every way to make the film as appealing possible.
"It's a film that's very close to my heart. It's a film, which we made as a family together. It's a film where I have given one and a half years of my life. Of course wherever I am required for the film I am there," Shahid told reporters at a promotional shoot of car music system company Pioneer, for which he has been the brand ambassador for the last three years.
Releasing September 16, 'Mausam' is a love story where Sonam Kapoor plays the lead opposite Shahid.
Two other films - Imran Khan's 'Meri Brother Ki Duhlan' and Ranbir Kapoor's 'Rockstar'-were initially scheduled to release September 9. However, 'Rockstar's release has been postponed to November 11.
Shahid is happy that all the three films are not releasing at the same time.
"All the three films were supposed to release at the same time and I am happy that it's not happening so because that's not good for the business," said Shahid.
"Imran's and Ranbir's film are coming and I am curious how their films are. Around the same time 'Mausam' is also coming and I hope people enjoy all the three films," he added.

'Andaz Apna Apna' and 'Sarfarosh' have potential, the star admits
Aamir Khan claims that he is not against sequels but believes that films like 'Sarfarosh' and 'Andaz Apna Apna' that have absolutely independent story to tell should go for it.
"I don't have any objection to a sequel. If I have seen a story, the characters and I like them, then I would like to know what happened to the character later," Aamir said.
"If there is a possibility of an equally nice story, different from the first plot but using the same characters, I don't mind making a sequel. A sequel should have an independent story."
"Like in my film 'Sarfarosh', what is ACP Rathod (his character) solving next? Or film like 'Andaz Apna Apna' has huge potential for a sequel. I am just saying this but none of them has been worked out so far," he added.
He himself is gearing up for part three of the 'Dhoom' franchise, but every sequel should have an independent story, insists Aamir.
"This is one good sequel. Every 'Dhoom' has a different story. John comes, then Hrithik comes and now I have a different story," said Aamir.
After decades Aamir is also set to write a script again.
He is shaping the story jointly with his filmmaker wife Kiran Rao, cousin Mansoor and sister Nuzhat Khan.
"I have worked as a co-writer in 'Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak'(1988), 'Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander' (1992), 'Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke' (1993). Once again I am writing a script with Kiran, Mansoor and Nuzhat. Four of us are writing together. It's an idea that came to me," said Aamir.
The 46-year-old maintains that if the script gets locked, Kiran would direct the film.
"Kiran would be directing it. It's quite a mainstream kind of film so it would be bit unusual for her also. Hopefully I would be acting in it too," he said.
"It's too early to decide. If the script gets locked in next five months, then I can say that we are making the film. That news I can give you in six months' time," said Aamir.

Amitabh Bachchan reveals the latest in the 'Heroine' drama
Amitabh Bachchan has spoken out about the controversy that arose after the shooting of Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Heroine' was halted following the news of his daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai's pregnancy. Big B says that the issues have been sorted out.
"It is a matter between Aishwarya and the producers of the film. I can't comment on it. They have sorted out the issues between them," he told reporters in Ahmedabad where he was promoting his film 'Bbuddah...Hoga Teraa Baap'.
"Despite that if someone express their feelings they have the right to do it. And later others will also express the feelings and this is how the truth will come out," he added.
Big B had earlier come strongly against Madhur and producers UTV.
After 'Heroine', Madhur's "most ambitious project", was put on the backburner indefinitely following the news of Aishwarya's pregnancy, the acclaimed filmmaker said on his blog that he went into depression and that he's upset that the "truth was hidden" from him.

She's set for a sizzling turn in 'Tezz'

The buzz is that Prinks might soon be seen in a rocking item number in 'Tezz'. We hear that 'Dabangg' music directors Sajid-Wajid are part of the project and Priyanka was the first and unanimous choice for the song.
Though she has been formally approached, PC hasn't officially said yes yet though she's believed to be interested in the concept. She had earlier said that she would probably not do an item number, but never say never, we guess!

Salman Khan gifts Raj Babbar a Merc!!
Salman Khan has been in a generous mood lately. On Monday night, he gifted his Bodyguard co-star Raj Babbar a Merc!
It was a belated birthday gift for the star politician after the shoot of the film wrapped up in Patiala. Babbar’s birthday was on June 23.
Says a source, “Raj Babbar was taken by surprise. He was, in fact, shocked when he saw the vehicle.”
The car is silver in colour and the number plate adds up to five the number Babbar prefers.
Sallu along with his sister Alvira and her hubby Atul Agnihotri (Bodyguard’s producer) had been planning the surprise for the past fortnight.
When asked about Sallu’s gesture, Raj Babbar’s daughter Juhi says, “Yes, Bhai did gift dad a car.”
The star MP had been roped in Bodyguard at the last minute to essay the role of Kareena Kapoor’s father. He had replaced Shatrughan Sinha, who cited a busy schedule and opted out of the project.
Adds the source, “It was also, Sallu’s way of showing his gratitude to Babbar, who had agreed to be part of the film at such short notice.”
Interestingly, the Babbar-Khan friendship goes a long way. Babbar and Sallu’s father Salim Khan have know each other for decades.
In November 2009, Salman had specially flown to Firozabad in Uttar Pradesh to campaign for Raj Babbar, who was contesting the parliamentary by-elections

Known for the melodious music in his films, Jha, for his upcoming film Aarakshan, was surprised when he heard of Padukone’s request
A source adds, “Deepika is a smart girl and knows exactly how to put forward her wishes. Before the film’s shooting, Deepika requested via sms to Prakash Jha to feature a love ballad on her, with a happy face smiley at the end. And her wish was granted. It was bound to — as where most actors reserve peculiar demands for their directors and are int he news for their tantrums. It was clear that Padukone’s charming approach to get her special song worked.”
When asked about the request, Padukone said, “I remember how Mora piya was such a rage. I remember messaging him (Prakash Jha) to please give me a good romantic song in his new film because Prakashji has a really good sense of music. I was really looking forward to shooting this song and it’s turned out amazing. Till now, Mora piya was always played on loop on my mp3 player wherever I was travelling But now its Seedhe point pe aaona, which is such a playful and cute romantic song.”
The song features Padukone opposite actor Saif Ali Khan

With every passing day, a new controversy sprouts up surrounding actor Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan’s pregnancy and the film Heroine she was slated to do. The latest has filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar blaming Aishwarya saying that she ‘hid the truth’ about her pregnancy.
The Bachchans are apparently miffed with reports that Ash’s backing out of Heroine has resulted in monetary losses to the production house to the tune of Rs 18 crore. He said that all such reports are false.
“Whatever has happened between Aishwarya, Madhur (Bhandarkar, co-producer) and UTV (co-producer) is between them. I know that the rumours going around are not true. I hope that the truth comes out soon,” said actor Amitabh Bachchan on his way back from Ajmer Dargah on Monday.
According to Bachchan, all rumours of a huge monetary loss (which was also hinted at by Madhur) are false. “Everybody knew that Aishwarya was married when she signed the film. So you mean to say that actors can’t get married or have children? I don’t think this can be a part of any contract that you cannot get married or have children if you working in a project,” adds Bachchan.
Bachchan is upset with the banner, UTV too. “I had completed Shoe Bite long back. I had also invested my time into it and completed the film which was based on Johnny Walker. I have never indulged in this kind of talk even though the film has not been released till now and I have no word about when it will be released,” says Bachchan.
Though Aishwarya is apparently not ready to react to Madhur’s allegation, a friend of the actress told DNA saying that she has not accepted any compensation for the film.
“They have not paid her anything for the film. All this hue and cry about losses is false as they had only shot for seven to 10 days, out of which the first few days were spent in photo-shoots and location shoots. The actual film shooting hadn’t even begun. Ash is very upset with the fact that she’s being targeted for being pregnant — a time when people should be happy for her,” says the source adding that besides Shoebite, other complete films like David Dhawan’s Hook Ya Crook (John Abraham- Genelia D’ Souza starrer) too are lying in the cans.
Salman Khan’s love for kids!!!
Salman Khan simply loves kids… The actor has decided to hold a special screening of his debut production for underprivileged children.
Salman Khan is very excited about his first film as a producer, Chillar Party, set to release this Friday. Now, since the film is about a bunch of kids who take up the cudgels for a dog against a vile politician, Salman deems it befitting that the film be screened for underprivileged kids.
A source close to the actor informs, “Kids hold special place in Salman’s heart. Since this is his first production and is based on kids, he thought it was necessary to have a screening for them.
He is hosting a special premiere for children from various NGOs that are associated with Being Human. He is specially flying down from Patiala, where he was shooting for Bodyguard, to attend this premiere.”
The source adds, “Salman strongly wants more and more kids to watch CP because the movie has a strong message to give out.”
Director Vikas Behl confirms, “He was always very keen to host the premiere for underprivileged children. He has removed two days from his busy schedule for the screening
