New Delhi so far known as political capital of India has become important for the entertainment industry as well. That’s why Hollywood actress Julia Roberts was recently spotted in the Capital. She is here to shoot for her film ‘Eat, Pray, Love’. Incidentally, we could spot her as she was with minimal security at an event in a hotel. This is to recall that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan had also come for the event with her entire security staff. Not just Aishwarya, the event was also graced by Bollywood hotties Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone among others. It was strange though that the hotel’s security staff, along with the celebs’ own entourage, escorted our Indian celebs while Julia was casually moving about the hotel without any security! Incidentally, Julia had arrived at the hotel 20 minutes before she was scheduled to without any fanfare and she didn’t use the lobby.

A 12-year-old film finally got completed this week, thanks to its leading man Akshay Kumar’s determination not to have a single film in the cans.

This week after completing a schedule of Sajid Khan’s Housefull, Akshay Kumar sent Deepika Padukone packing and called producer-director Shabnam Kapoor to London to complete the long-pending Purab Ki Laila Paschim Ka Chaila, now called Helloo India.

Shabnam Kapoor flew to London and shot with Akshay Kumar for almost a week before he flew out to Italy Thursday for the next schedule of Housefull.

With the completion of Purab Ki Laila… which also stars Namrata Shirodkar and Suniel Shetty, Akshay prides himself on being the only leading man in Bollywood who has no films in the cans.

Interestingly this would be only the second film in Akshay’s career directed by a female. Sangharsh directed by Tanuja Chandra was the first.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan might be all of 35 and is losing out on endorsement deals and positions to the likes of Kareena Kapoor and plastic actress gone lucky, Katrina Kaif, but she still is going strong in more ways that one.

Not just Ash, her contemporaries like Sushmita Sen, Rani Mukerji, Preity Zinta and Kajol too have been replaced by the likes of Kat, Bebo, Deepika Padukone, even Sonam Kapoor and Genelia D’Souza.

But Ash is doing better than her contemporaries.She may not be the face of Coca-Cola and Nakshatra diamond jewellery in India, but she still has successful and long-standing international endorsements.

She has completed nearly a decade of endorsing Swiss luxury watch brand Longines, international soap Lux and is the brand ambassador of global haircare brand L’Oreal since 2003. And unlike Shilpa Shetty and Preity Zinta who have moved.
