Sylvester Stallone, talented actor of masterpieces such as the Rocky franchise, recently acted in a scene of Kareena Kapoor's new movie Kambakht Ishq. There he got to meet Saif Ali Khan as well.

Hear what wonderfully wise advice he gave to the Nawab of Pataudi.

Akshay Kumar, star of Tashan and Singh is Kinng, is quite happy with the success of Singh is Kinng, although critics are slamming it for being pointless crap. And by critics, I mean me.

While some actors and actresses forget their normal lives when they become famous, Shahid Kapoor is not a part of this group. The Paathshala actor has kept in touch with all his old friends and recently surprised a friend with a surprise birthday party.

A college or high school friend of Shahid's recently celebrated his birthday and although Shahid was shooting in Pune for Kaminay with Priyanka Chopra, he still found some time to celebrate with his friend.

A crew member reports,

''Shahid was shooting for Vishal Bharadwaj's Kaminey in Pune. Came 11th August and it was Shahid's childhood friend Shriram's birthday, who lives in Bangalore. Shahid called him to Pune. Shahid just told Shriram that he had some urgent work and needed him to come to Pune. It was only when Shriram came to Pune that he realized that Shahid had thrown a surprise birthday get together."

If that's not sweet, I don't know what is. All I have to say is...lucky friend!

And there's your Shahid-dose for the weekend. Take Care guys, see you on Monday! Have an awesomely awesome weekend!

Imran Khan (who by the way looks really good in that suit ;-)) appreciates all that his uncle has done in launching him, and continues to accept Aamir Khan's help for future projects. Aamir is committed to making his nephew a success in the industry and instead of letting him make his own mistakes as far as scripts go, Aamir is hoping that the Kidnap actor will learn from Aamir's mistakes when he started in the industry.

A source reports,

"A few big banners approached Imraan in the last few weeks but he turned them all down one by one and now we have found out why!

One big shot corporate had approached Imraan with a tempting offer just as the signing amount, but the young newcomer declined it there and then since no script was offered along with. Any script offered to Imraan first goes to Aamir.

After weighing the various pros and cons of the offered project, Aamir then has a meeting with Imraan. In this meeting he puts forth his points and leaves it up to his nephew whether he should accept the film or not."

Sounds like a good Mamu...did I mention how good Imran looks in that suit?

Comedy director David Dhawan is planning his next movie...and guess what? It doesn't have Salman Khan in it. Hook Ya Crook brings back a couple you've seen in Salaam-E-Ishq.

Read here to find out who they are.

All except his own apparently.

Hey guys, sorry I've been AWOL for most of this week, I've just been bogged down with work but hopefully, SC will be back to normal by next week.

Today's story is about Salman Khan, who's playing a Sikh character in his new movie Heroes. Salman has to don a turban for the role and in respect for the religion, doesn't smoke while he's wearing the turban. Hmmm, sounds like an interesting way to quit smoking. Maybe he should wear that turban more. The movie has already begun shooting and is being directed by Samir Karnik, with Preity Zinta also starring opposite Sallu. I was wondering where Preity had disappeared, she hasn't appeared in a movie in ages.

The one thing that confuses me, Salman has always showed that he respects other religions, which is brilliant but he doesn't have a problem drinking and running over random people. I'm pretty sure Islam doesn't look kindly at that kind of behavior either.

I hate hypocrites.

Today's posts seem to be about pain. First Zayed Khan got hurt during a shoot, now reports have said that Mallika Sherawat almost drowned during a recent beach shooting.

For the scene, the actress was required to stand in water and play some instrument, which was working out perfectly until high tide came in and currents pulled Mallika deeper into the sea. Supposedly Mallika is a good swimmer but she started drowning and the crew on the beach dove in to save her.

Once it was made sure that Mallika was OK, the shoot continued. So there's not much of a story there either.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali, veteran director, known for heard-hitting gems like Black and Devdas is struggling to bring big names into his productions.

Read about who's rejected him and why here!

Hi all, short and random posts for this week, because even though I'm on holiday, I have way too much work to do.

Remember when we were kids and our mom's told us not to jump from our beds/the back of the sofa/the top of the dresser? That's because she didn't want us to hurt ourselves. Zayed Khan obviously didn't listen to his mum when he was injured during a stunt shoot for his next movie Blue.

Zayed was involved in a stunt that saw him jumping from a highrise building in Bangkok which resulted him banging his head on the windshield of a car. He says,

"The blood gushed out and was all over my face. It took a while for everyone to realize I was injured,"

Did you notice how everyone describes any cut saying that the blood was gushing out? Anyways, Zayed was taken to the hospital, stitched up and returned to shooting the next day. The cut was quite high on his forehead, so his hair was used to disguise it.

Clearly someone has way too much time to think, but I'm glad because there's at least one story to write about Shahid this week.

Shahid seems to have a strange way of bringing luck onto himself. It seems that whenever he acts in a film directed by Ken Ghosh, a little pain seems to be good for his kismat. When Shahid acted with Amrita Rao is Ishq Vishk, he hurt himself early on in the shooting and the movie became a hit. Shahid then teamed up with Ken again when he acted with Kareena Kapoor in Fida. Once again, he hurt himself during the film and even though Fida bombed, the good luck was that Shahid and Kareena started their relationship. Really? That was a good thing?

Shahid's next movie with Ken, which may be called Star or Yahoo (man, that's just a lawsuit waiting to happen) is already looking good. No one knows what the story line is or who his co-stars are yet but shooting has begun and Shahid has hurt himself again. Ken supposedly thinks that the movie is now going to be a hit.

I think this is the first time I've heard of a director who rejoices in his actor's injuries.

Anyways, I have a terrible cold, so I'm planning to spend the weekend in bed. Stay warm and have a brilliant weekend.
