>> Zeenat danced to Laila Main laila from Qurbani.

>>The cake, which had slums on it, was specially ordered by Azmi's hubby Javed who called it Shabana Nagri.

Aamir and Tabu in a film together

Aamir and Tabu have not worked together before and they will be paired with each other in Priyadarshan’s serious film on AIDS.

A source tells us that Aamir has agreed to do the film as it is realistic and he wants to contribute to the cause of AIDS through this film, which is only 95 minutes long. Priyadarshan wanted to make this film last year, but he waited to see the reactions to his other realistic film, Kanchivaram. He got a positive response and now he is thrilled about his AIDS film. Aamir and Priyadarshan will team up for the first time if Aamir likes the script as much as the idea of the film.

Tabu hasn’t confirmed her presence in the film. She has previously worked with the director on Hera Pheri, Kaala Pani and Viraasat. She is presently busy with Dr. Chandraprakash Dwivedi’s The Legend of Kunal and romantic comedy Toh Baat Pakki.

Our source tells us that Priyadarshan will now start work on the script and he will take his time to finish it, because he wants the film to be as well-researched and sensitive as possible. He wants Aamir to be part of it because the audience knows that Aamir is very choosy about his scripts and only does quality films. Everybody goes to see an Aamir Khan film as he has one release a year. This could become another phenomenon like Taare Zameen Par.

Tabu and Aamir were part of Fanaa, but they didn't have any scenes with each other.

Kanchivaram won several awards internationally and the National Award in India. Let’s hope the AIDS film does equally well.

Tabu and Big B back together

If not on the big screen for now, the sizzling couple will be seen strutting the catwalk for good friends and fashion designers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.

Amitabh Bachchan has been wearing Jani and Khosla’s clothes for a while now and wife Jaya pretty much swears by their clothing. Tabu too has been an avid follower of the designer’s clothing line and it seemed only perfect to have the two walk for them for the HDIL Fashion show. The show begins on October 11th and it is also the day of Big B’s 67th birthday.

The designers are ecstatic that Big B will be walking the ramp for them and told the press, ‘Mr Bachchan has been wearing our clothes for a long time now and we wanted someone who knows our clothes well. And of course, it never gets bigger than Amitabh Bachchan. Besides Mr Bachchan, Tabu is someone who has been wearing our clothes for long too.’ Tabu and Amitabh last sizzled onscreen with their performance in the hilarious romcom Cheeni Kum, audiences loved their chemistry and are waiting with bated breath to see the two together.

Apart from the fashion show, Tabu and Amitabh will finally be seen onscreen in the period film The Legend of Kunal, directed by Chandraprakash Dwivedi. Dwivedi who is known for his expertise in historical cinema has already begun with the pre-production work of the film. The show will be a great teaser to see the two together till they finally grace 70mm again!

Bips want Tabu

News from the sets of All the Best is that after hearing the news of Tabu joining the crew, Bipasha Basu demanded to know why she wasn't kept in the loop.

The Bong Bombshell is jittery, as multi-heroine films like Ajnabee, Race, and Bachna Ae Haseeno didn't do much for her. Now she's worried that with powerhouse performer Tabu entering the cast, her role might suffer.

A birdie from Goa says, "Bips spoke to Ajay and told him that he can't have Tabu in the climax. Initially, she was to be the main lead and now it is becoming a two-heroine project."

But we are sure when they come face-to-face, the two actresses will smile and blow air kisses.

Tabu patches up with Madhur Bhandarkar

After creating magic with the film “Chandni Bar”, which won many National Awards, Tabu and director Madhur Bhandarkar had a fallout.

Their differences were over sharing of the film’s credit.

After this fight, Tabu had decided that she will never work in any of Madhur’s films. This was obvious when she was not a part of any of his subsequent movies.

Even though they did not let their fight come out in the open there was unspoken bitterness between them.

But now Madhur’s wife Renu seemed to have successfully resolved the issue resulting in Tabu agreeing to work with Madhur in his under production movie, “Jail”.

It so happened that Tabu and Renu recently met at a shopping mall. Renu did not leave Tabu alone and accompanied her for her entire shopping trip. After that she invited Tabu home for a cup of coffee. If that wasn’t enough, Renu managed to convince her to stay for dinner too.

Tabu was touched by Renu’s persistence and hospitality. That’s when Madhur took his chance and convinced Tabu to be part of “Jail”.

Tabu readily agreed to do so and Madhur couldn’t stop thanking his wife for this.
