Abhishek Bachchan is back in Jaipur, Rajasthan, to resume shot after an accident. After almost a week Abhishek will join his team of ‘Bol Bachchan’ in Jaipur.

Abhishek got injured while he was shooting for his upcoming film. Junior Bachchan was performing a stunt for the movie when he fell from a rickshaw. It was a chase sequence over hand rickshaws and he missed his footing.

He slipped and fell from the rickshaw and had a cut near his eye. He had 6 stitches and was immediately flown back to Mumbai to recover. Though he is all hale and hearty the scar according to him is scary. On a lighter note he tweeted that his father, Amitabh Bachchan and wife, Aishwarya Rai attempted to make me feel better and told him that a scar on the face adds character and apparently even looks sexy on him. That of course did not appease him and he added: "The airhostess on my flight to Jaipur refused to serve me and when I disembarked from the plane had the look...of sheer horror on her face".

Well Abhishek we think you can survive with a small scar on your face.

The prim and proper Sonakshi Sinha, is all set to add spice in her life. After her demure act in her debut movie, Dabangg, she all set for an image makeover. Sonakshi Sinha is about to don the item girl tag in her next movie 'Joker'.

Although her character is that of a village belle, Shirish Kunder managed to add some fun in the character.

'Joker' is almost about to be wrapped up barring few scenes and an item number. The number will be choreographed by Farah Khan who has earlier delivered chartbusters like 'Munni' and 'Sheila'. Shirish Kunder was looking for another actress to feature in the song. But later felt Sonakshi she will do a far better job instead of looking for someone else.

Starring Akshay Kumar, Shreyas Talpade, Minissha Lamba and Sonakshi, 'Joker' is will be a 3D fantasy adventure flick.

A Mumbai court issued summons director Madhur Bhandarkar in a 2004 rape case. It's a blow to the director who has been already fighting many controversies regarding his movies. He will be tried under charges of rape and criminal intimidation.

In July 2004, Preeti Jain, a model, had lodged a complaint with the police alleging that Bhandarkar had raped her 16 times between 1999 and 2004 under the pretext of casting her in his films.

Bhandarkar has to appear before the court on Oct 18 and file his statement in the case. If he fails to do so he will be arrested.

The rape case seems to have come back to haunt producer & director Madhur Bhandarkar.
