Salman Khan to join Anna Hazare’s campaign

Salman Khan’s bodyguard allegedly thrashed an anti-corruption activist, who wanted the actor to join Anna Hazare’s campaign against corruption. The actor had to face heat when a police complaint was filed against him.

According to sources, Salman was returning from an event when activists of India Against Corruption approached the superstar to lend his support to the cause. However, the members of the Jan Rajya Party (Anna’s allies) were in for a rude shock when they were man-handled by the bodyguards of Salman.

Founded by the ex-IITians group, the President of the Jan Rajya Party, Deepak Bharat said, “His bodyguards hit us as soon as we moved near his vehicle. We just wanted to present him with Anna ‘topis’ and have his autograph on anti-corruption material. There was no provocation.”

Eyewitnesses said, “Salman`s bouncers manhandled the activists when they approached his car. There was no provocation except the anti-corruption slogans the group was raising,” said an eyewitness.

A police complaint was filed against Salman when his bodyguards allegedly hit Jan Rajya Party’s general secretary Omendra Bharat, who fainted and fell on the ground.

Omendra said he filed a police complaint against the actor and his bodyguards for manhandling the activists when they tried to present Salman an Anna ‘topi.’

Meanwhile, investigating officer Upendra Singh Rathi said that police have registered the complaint and they were investigating the matter. “Necessary action would be taken if the charges are found to be true.”

Apart from casual conversation, Shahid, Bipasha and Siddharth discussed the possibility of doing a film together.

Talking to a daily, a source said, “Bipasha is really fond of Siddharth. She wanted him to come for a casual dinner with Shahid. They were joking around and having a good time. Shahid was quite interested in discussing the possibility of doing a romantic film with Bips.

A few months ago, there was buzz that Sid wanted to remake the Tom Cruise film ‘Knight and Day’ with Shahid and Priyanka for a leading production house. However, the project never took off.”

“The conversation wasn`t seriously about work. The motive behind the dinner meeting was to catch up, but they couldn`t help discussing working in the future,” added the source.

Shahid and Bipasha were last seen together in ‘Shikhar’ (2005), but the duo wasn’t cast opposite each other.

Hmm…carry on Shahid and Bipasha!

Aamir Khan suggested Anna Hazare’s team

In what looks like India’s second freedom struggle, Anna Hazare stands adamant on his stance against the ongoing anti-corruption movement.

As the 74-year-old crusader’s indefinite fast enters the 10th day, what came as a surprising revelation from a member of Anna’s team is that it was actor Aamir Khan, who had suggested them to strike residences of the Members of the Parliament.

Though the perfectionist star hasn’t made a public appearance at the Ramlila Maidan as yet, he has been in constant touch with team Anna and has also been giving them suggestions with regards to the movement.

Talking to a daily, a Team Anna member said, “It was Aamir`s suggestion that we should get individual MPs to take a stand. We have only made a call.

It is the people who are taking this forward by voluntarily raising the issue with their MPs across the country.”

Khan has been the first from the film industry to express his solidarity with Anna and his movement.

He had expressed his support to Anna in writing and had also sent a letter to Dr. Manmohan Singh, requesting him to consider Anna’s appeal.

Aamir is also of the opinion that the Prime Minister should come under the Lokpal Bill.

You seem to be following what you preached in your Box Office hit `Rang De Basanti`. Well done Aamir!

Salman Khan as brand ambassador of Indian Railways

Given Salman Khan’s love for rail gaadi, the Indian Railways are planning to rope in the megastar to bring about a much needed face lift to one of the biggest transportation system in India.

Action superstar Salman Khan is often seen running, romancing or beating the pulp out of baddies against the backdrop of our very own Indian Railways, so the top officials of the department are reportedly contemplating to ask the star become their brand ambassador.

A source close to Salman revealed, "The Indian Railways is used as a mode of transport by a very large number of population.

And, as a star, Salman has a huge appeal among the masses. So it`s a perfect brand fit.”

"His movies like ‘Tere Naam,’ ‘Wanted,’ ‘Dabangg’ - all have important scenes in trains or railway platforms," the source added.

However, Salman’s business representative was very evasive about the deal. On contacting the rep said, "It`s too premature to talk anything about it right now."

Well, let’s hope Salman’s ticket get confirmed soon!
