DHOBI GHAT STAR "MONICA DOGRA" IN A BRAND NEW AD

Sitting with a hen inside a rustic cage, DHOBI GHAT star Monica Dogra appears in a brand-new ad for PETA India and urges fans to 'try to relate to who is on their plate, go vegetarian'. The actor and singer, who went vegetarian after learning what animals killed for meat endure, is now encouraging everyone to switch to a healthy and humane vegetarian diet.

Dogra also sat down for an exclusive video interview with PETA. 'I was raised eating meat', she explains. 'Around 12 years old, I remember reading ... about factory farming and the way that - particularly chickens at that time - were being treated ... and I remember feeling really harrowed and sad.' After she stopped eating animals, Dogra says that her 'health improved' and her 'weight stabilized'.

In addition to starring in Aamir Khan's DHOBI GHAT, Dogra is part of the hot music duo Shaa'ir + Func, which has been named among the top emerging artists and best independent artists by VH1. Originally from Baltimore, Dogra is a graduate of New York University's music program.

Dogra joins a growing list of celebrities - including Pamela Anderson, Shahid Kapoor, Sir Paul McCartney, R Madhavan and Anil Kumble - who have teamed up with PETA to promote a vegetarian lifestyle.

CRICKETER YUVRAJ - MERA NAAM KAREGA ROSHAN

Not many must have heard of cricketer Yuvraj Singh's father, Yograj Singh, a menacing tear away fast bowler of his time, but could not make much of a mark as he had to compete with the legendary cricketer Kapil Dev and also due to his injuries.

For all those who are wondering as to why we are talking about cricket and ex-cricketer Yograj Sigh, we would like to acquaint them with the fact that Yograj Singh is quite a well known actor of Punjabi films and has acted in as many as 30 films. And he is just not a regional film actor as he was recently seen in Rakyesh Ompraksh Mehra's TEEN THAY BHAI as 'dadaji'.

However, for those who have not noticed the still handsome Yogaraj yet the good news is that he is all set to produce a film, tentatively titled MERA NAAM KAREGA ROSHAN. As per Yograj, his film will be about his father's wishes, his own struggle and also the achievement of his illustrious son, ace cricketer and man of the series of the recent World Cup that India won, Yuvraj Singh.

Here's wishing more success to Yograj Singh in his innings as an actor!

BOLLYWOOD BOX OFFICE REPORT - THIS WEEK

This week will see the release of Vipul Shah's Barnali Ray Shukla directed, "KUCCH LUV JAISAA". Of course there are a few lesser known projects like "COLLEGE CAMPUS", "ME MAMU & 7" etc. also listed for release but it will be the Shefali-Rahul starrer KUCCH LUV JAISAA that will take the pole position, especially with its 'hat ke' treatment and theme!

Last Friday's three releases, PYAAR KA PUNCHNAMA, 404 and KASHMAKASH (dubbed), failed to cut much ice with the audience and it was just PKP that saw some patronage (stable with low end collections in the weekdays too), while 404 and KASHMAKASH failing from the first show itself.

The audience instead preferred the Hollywood release, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES and its dubbed version, SAMUNDER KE LOOTERE: EK ANJAAN RAHASYA.

KRISTIN CAVALLARI - LOVE IS MOST VITAL THING IN LIFE

Sporting her sparkling new diamond along the way, Kristin Cavallari headed to do a little shopping in Los Angeles, California.

The former "Hills" hottie opted for an effortlessly classic look, wearing a collared white shirt, blue jeans and a pair of nude heels as she hit up Melinda Maria for some new bling.

The outing comes as newly-engaged Kristin recently blogged about finding the man of her dreams, Jay Cutler, writing, "You always hear people say 'you can have all the money in the world, but without someone to share it with it doesn’t matter.' It wasn’t until I took a step back and made love my top priority that I realized love is the most important thing in life, not work. But I truly believe everything happens exactly when it’s supposed to, because I wasn’t ready to find Mr. Right 2 years ago."

Cavallari ended with a heartfelt memo to all those reading, telling, "I don’t think someone else can make you happy. It has to come from you.

But I do think other people can help draw it out of you. So I hope that everyone gets to experience love at some point in his or her life, whether it be for a short period of time or long lasting love – because that’s what life is all about."
