Emon
is a pretty well established actor in the industry, but he was also
subject to a lot of controversy, mostly surrounding his marital status.
He claimed he was single, despite the presence of photographs of his
marriage in the media. Well, the controversy ends today as he has
finally come clean: he is indeed married, and is also the father of two
children! The reason for this cover up is still unclear although many
speculate this was done for his career.
Farah Ruma No more cliché roles
Farah
Ruma is a very popular face in television, despite not being part of
too many productions. One of the many reasons why she doesn't
participate in too many productions is because she has become very
selective in her roles. When asked about her recent project “Chiro
Boshonto” she said, “I like choosing my productions based on what roles I
will play. That's why I am not part of too many productions. I like
being part of work that makes me and my audiences happy”.

Raghu's character was difficult for Varun Dhawan: Dinesh Vijan
Producer
Dinesh Vijan, who is basking in the success of his latest co-production
"Badlapur", feels relieved that not only the film but actor Varun
Dhawan's new avatar was also appreciated by the audience. He is more
than happy that Varun pulled off the "difficult and challenging role" of
Raghu with great conviction. "Raghu's character is very difficult to
play because he does not do anything. He only talks through his eyes and
rarely laughs. I think it was more challenging and more difficult role
to play," Dinesh Vijan told reporters here Friday at the success party
of "Badlapur". "And it is really commendable that Varun played this
character so beautifully. He has actually broken his image," he added.
Directed by Sriram Raghavan, "Badlapur" is a dark and intense revenge
drama that features Varun as an aggressive man on a mission to seek
revenge. Released in Feb, it also features Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Huma
Qureshi.

Age gracefully, don't cover the lines: Kareena Kapoor Khan
Bollywood's
fit and fabulous Kareena Kapoor is on her way to turn 35, and she's
clear about not attempting to be 22! She feels the key to ageing
gracefully lies in letting the "lines" be, especially when it comes to
men. "I think one should age gracefully. I am proud to be 34 and I think
aging is wonderful. I hate it when I look at somebody and know that
they have tried to cover the lines," Kareena said. "I find men with
lines on their faces more intelligent and sexy. Even for women, I think
Maharani Gayatri Devi was very graceful. The way she aged with the grey
hair -- that is elegance," added the wife of actor-producer Saif Ali
Khan, who is 10 years her elder, and daughter-in-law of Bollywood's
ageless beauty, Sharmila Tagore. On the film front, Kareena is set to
pack her bags soon and leave for Amritsar to shoot for 'Udta Punjab'.
She says the milieu of the film, based on drug busting in Punjab, will
leave "everyone shocked". Kareena will also be seen in Salman
Khan-starrer 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' this year.
