The Tamil version of 'Munni Badnaam Hui' will not feature bootylicious Malaika Arora Khan. The original Munni is being replaced by sinful Sheila aka Katrina Kaif.

We have confirmed reports that the filmmakers are signing on Katrina Kaif and Dh2m has been set aside just for the song.

Malaika had shaken the entire nation with her dancing moves last year till Katrina gave her a tough fight with her 'Shiela Ki Jawani’ number.

The makers of 'Osthi', the Tamil version of Dabangg, did not want the remake to be compared with the original. So they decided to give it a twist by turning Sheila to Munni.

Copyright issues resulted some tweaking of the original song which will be choreographed by Saroj Khan. We hear Malaika refused to do any item song outside her home production.

So we now wait for Katrina to enchant us with her sexy moves. All we ask is some fun-filled rocking performance be it from Sheila or Munni.

 Shilpa Shetty takes classical turn

Shilpa Shetty’s raunchy dance and sexy belly movement brought item number back to Bollywood. Taking her cue mainstream actresses joined the club of item dancers.

But the original item girl is going the classical way. In her latest film, 'The Desire', Shilpa will play an Odissi dancer.

Shilpa has always been lauded for her dance moves and she left no stone unturned to master Odissi as well. She went through rigorous training and took lessons in the classical Indian dance form. She also interacted with several Odissi dancers to know more about the dance form and enhance her skills.

Sources say Shilpa now married, wants an image makeover and ‘The Desire’ is a perfect platform for her. Image makeover or no we want Shilpa to always make the right moves. We hope she brings the trend of classical dance back to Bollywood.
 

Dia Mirza's marital status in focus again!

Unlike many Bollywood actresses Dia Mirza is completely candid about her relationship with Sahil Sangha, business partner and director of her first production venture. “Yes, we are dating, and I will marry him soon…may be next year itself!” says the actress.

This is one part of the story. Sources say our beauty queen and Bollywood actress Dia Mirza has already tied the knot secretly. Well that's a twist in the tale. It is rumoured that Dia married to filmmaker boyfriend Sahil Singha, whom she has been dating for around a year now.

The 29-year-old, who turned producer, joins hands with actor Zayed Khan and beau Sahil, to form Born Free Entertainment Pvt Ltd.

Her maiden production venture, Love Breakups Zindagi, has Dia and Zayed in the lead role and directed by Sahil. Dia definitely cannot hide her excitement while talking about him. She is all praises for her heart-throb. Dia and Sahil’s moms happen to be good friends but it was Sahil’s wonderful script that had floored the actor.

Last year there were media reports in Pakistan that claimed Dia had secretly married Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Akhtar. She had vehemently denied it and of course, that piece of news was not true.

Married or not Dia seems to be in bliss with her love life. We wish happy ending for both Dia and Sahil.
