Her melodrama Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... became India's highest-grossing film in the overseas market in 2001, and is one of her biggest commercial successes to date. After receiving negative reviews for a series of repetitive roles, Kapoor accepted more demanding parts in order to avoid being typecast, and was consequently recognized by critics for displaying greater versatility as an actress. Her portrayal of a sex worker in Chameli (2004) proved to be the turning point in her career and she was later noted for her performances in the critically acclaimed projects Dev (2004) and Omkara (2006).

In 2007, Kapoor received the Filmfare Award for Best Actress for her performance in Jab We Met, a romantic comedy directed by Imtiaz Ali. She went on to play the lead female role in the thriller Kurbaan (2009), for which she earned critical acclaim, and the drama 3 Idiots (2009), which became the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all time. Having done so, Kapoor has established herself as a leading actress of the Hindi film industry. In addition to movie acting, Kapoor is a regular stage performer and has launched her own clothing line in association with being the brand ambassador for the retail chain Globus. Her off-screen life, including her relationship with actor Saif Ali Khan, is the subject of wide media coverage in India.

With biggest of hits and superhits films like JAB WE MET, 3 IDIOTS, GOLMAAL series, BODYGUARD, and some highly anticipated films under her belt (RA.ONE with Shahrukh Khan, Reema Kagti's untitled project with Aamir Khan, AGENT VINOD with Saif Ali Khan, EK MAIN AUR EKK TU with Imran Khan), Kareena has only proved that she is the original numero uno actress and here to stay.

ABHAY PLAYING A 40 YEAR OLD IAS OFFICER IN "SHANGHAI"

"SHANGHAI", which is directed by Dibakar Banerjee and also stars Emraan Hashmi as the lead protagonist, features Abhay Deol as an IAS officer who is a 40 year old South Indian and finds himself pushed and pulled by various forces while following his call of duty.

"SHANGHAI is a very different story while being contemporary," says Abhay, "The film is based in a small town in India and is about progress. However we have made sure that it is entertaining to the hilt because it is only then can a message be conveyed most effectively. The film shows how most of us aspire to be living a better life, get better roads and infrastructure and have superior quality things around it. But then isn't it all easier said than done?

What Abhay believes has become easier though is his stint in the industry. Post ZINDAGI NA MILEGI DOBARA, he has finally been recognized as someone who can deliver big commercial success as well.

He smiles, "Yeah, now more people are familiar with me so guess there would be added curiosity about my next film that happens to be SHANGHAI. We have in fact finished the film in 40 days and are now into post production."

With Kalki Koechlin as the leading lady, SHANGHAI is about a common man's endeavor to move from being a part of a third world country to someone who belongs to the first world. Also starring veteran actors Prosenjit Chatterjee and Farooq Sheikh, SHANGHAI releases all over on 26th January 2012.

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY - IN A VERY HAPPY MOOD

Making her way to England for London Fashion Week, Rosie Huntington Whiteley was seen enjoying a night out in the capital city.

The "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" darling was all smiles as she and a few friends stumbled out of The Box Nightclub and Cabaret before hopping into a cab for a safe ride back home.

The UK outing comes after Miss Huntington-Whiteley recently spent time in NYC for the semi-annual Mercedes Benz Fashion Week.

Rosie happens to have picked up a posh Manhattan pad with actor beau, Jason Statham, as s Daily Mail reporter told, "Rosie already has one apartment in New York but was keen to invest in a new swanky place and rent out her old property."

The Daily Mail insider added, "She really loves the city and is even flying her parents over to see the new place."

SHAHRUKH AND ANUBHAV - LOOKING 200 CRORES MARK FOR "RA.ONE"

'Records are meant to be broken' - This could well be the mantra of Shahrukh Khan and Anubhav Sinha this Diwali. Someone who was busy creating one record after another before he embarked upon RA.ONE, spent close to two years in its making, pumped in over 150 crores and saw other Khans churn out 100, 150 and 200 crore blockbusters in the interim, the stage is pretty much set for Shahrukh to create a new record with his sci-fi superhero action thriller.

"Shahrukh certainly knows about these facts and figures and though he is claiming that when it comes to matters of heart, box office collections and subsequently hits and facts take a back seat, fact is that he is pretty much on the job to make RA.ONE as the biggest grosser ever," says a close associate.

This was evident from the music launch which took place early this week at Mumbai which was a lavish affair and first of its kind. Also, a fortune was spent at this event which saw each of the stars performing live.

"This is nothing, wait for a lot more to come in next 40 days," says a marketing guru, "Let's not forget that he has been in the industry for two decades and also has a very sharp business mind. This mega launch was just a beginning. There would be a much more elaborate and well spread out campaign right till the week's release. Entire planning has been done well in advance and now it's time for execution."

Few steps taken in this direction are dubbing the film in Tamil and Telugu with likelihood of German and Chinese version as well. While it is given that the print count would be biggest ever for a Bollywood release, the 3D version would further add on to the momentum.

Says a trade veteran, "Given the pace that RA.ONE has picked up, it won't be surprising for this Anubhav Sinha film to not just break the first week record currently held by Salman's BODYGUARD but also topple 200 crores plus lifetime collections of Aamir Khan's 3 IDIOTS."

JOSS STONE - ALWAYS HAD A LOVE FOR DOGS

She’s always had a love for dogs, and Joss Stone has taken it upon herself to find a home for a canine companion while she’s working on a new album in New York City.

The “Don’t Start Lying to Me Now” songstress made a video with her foster dog, Oprah, a six or seven-year-old bull mastiff-pit bull mix.

Stone explained, "I'm fostering her while I'm here in New York making a record. I thought it would be nice to foster Oprah because she's so, so sweet. And I can't take her home because I live so far away, and I have four dogs of my own."

"She was looking for a low-key dog that needed out of the shelter but could handle being in the recording studio with her during the day," explained a rep from Animal Haven.
