With his recent films proving to be huge box office flops, Shahid Kapoor is putting his time to good use by picking up a new hobby.

The actor is keeping himself busy by learning how to DJ, and was even seen showing off his skills at a recent Bollywood party hosted by Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan. He was seen glued to the console as he learnt the ropes of mixing music.

The 32-year-old star carries his own set of audio speakers for his rookie gigs and also played music for his guests at a small get-together party he hosted.

“It seems Shahid has found himself an alternate vocation. He makes sure never to leave his speakers behind at home. His mobile phone has a lot of music from hip hop to retro it covers all the genres,” said a source close to him.

The source added, “Shahid has been talking music. In fact, in his free time, he has also been inquiring about good DJ’ing software available.”

Recently, a complaint was filed in Jaipur court against Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan for publicly smoking at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium during an Indian Premier League (IPL) match, according to the Masala website.

 

 

The complaint was submitted in the court of the additional chief judicial magistrate in Jaipur and the case made its first hearing yesterday.

 

 

The complaint was made by lawyer Nem Singh Rathore on behalf of the director of the Jaipur Criket Academy, Anand Singh, who said that smoking in public has been disallowed in Rajasthan since 2010.

 

Shah Rukh Khan had been caught smoking in front of thousands of spectators and was even broadcasted live on the TV channel.

 

 

Nem Singh further added that spectators were being allowed into the stadium only after frisking. “The police was confiscating any objectionable items including cigarettes while frisking.

 

However, it seems Shah Rukh was allowed to carry the cigarette packet into the stadium which is negligence on part of the police,” he said in his complain.

The Chuck Norris of India, or better known as Bollywood superstar Rajnikanth, is now living up to his name as the man who can do anything. The actor will be attempting something he has never done before – to sing a song in Hindi, according to the Masala website.

 

Last week, Rajnikanth recorded a Hindi song composed and co-sung by A. R. Rahman in London for his daughter Soundarya’s film “Kochadaiyaan”.

 

The producers of the film, Dr Murli Manohar and Eros International, were very eager to have the superstar sing the song in Hindi, especially since he lent his voice to the original Tamil version. In an interview with a tabloid, Dr Manohar said that the Hindi version is completely different from its Tamil version.

 

This version of the song has been written by Irshaad Kaamil, better known for his pieces from “Love Aaj Kal” and “Rockstar”.

His style was clearly imprinted into this song when it has been heard that it contained plenty of difficult Urdu words.

The superstar was reluctant to do it at first, as he was worried that he may not be able to pull it off, but to no one’s surprise at the end of the 15-day schedule in London, he was able to record the song to the liking of the composer.

He has largely been known as the chocolate boy in Bollywood. But Shahid Kapoor is set to undergo a transformation for UTV’s Hindi remake of the Tamil action venture, Vettai. Released this January, The Arya-R Madhavan starrer was produced by the same banner. Shahid is likely to play the part originally portrayed by Arya.

When contacted, Siddharth Roy Kapoor, UTV Motion Pictures’ CEO confirms: “Yes, we are in advanced discussions with Shahid, but till we make a formal announcement, I wouldn’t like to say much about the cast.” N Lingusamy will apparently direct the Hindi remake too, while Madhavan may also reprise his role.

Vettai revolves around two brothers — the younger one played by Arya, and the older, by Madhavan. While the latter is sensitive to violence, Arya is a jobless rogue. After being beaten up by goons, Madhavan becomes stronger, thanks to the training he receives from his younger brother. The two then get back at two goons and protect their family.

“Vettai is essentially an action film, but like other south Indian films, it also has a dose of masala entertainment including humour, stunts, dance, songs and romance. But in terms of genre, it’s an action –  rough and rugged kind – film,” says Kapoor, adding that the production house has had a “fantastic start” to 2012. “The last few months have been very good for us.

Starting with Vettai, our big release on Pongal, we have had a great run with Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya, and now, Paan Singh Tomar,” he says, adding, “Everything boils down to making the right creative choices. Thankfully, we’ve managed to do it.”

Leading Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan surrendered to police after being accused of breaking a man’s nose in an brawl at a luxury hotel restaurant in Mumbai, police said on Wednesday.
The star was released on bail after being questioned about the incident at Colaba police station. The actor was charged with voluntarily causing severe hurt.
Khan ran into trouble after a South African businessman registered a case with the police, complaining that he was pushed and punched in the face by the actor at the Taj Mahal Palace hotel’s Wasabi Japanese restaurant.
Khan, 41, was dining with his girlfriend, actress Kareena Kapoor, and friends on Tuesday night when he allegedly clashed with Iqbal Sharma.
Police said Sharma said he was hit on the nose after a “heated argument” with Saif.
“Saif and his friends (seated next to us) were loud and raucous. We only asked the hotel authorities to get them to quieten down,” Sharma told NDTV television channel.
Sharma claimed the actor then told him: “Do you know who I am? If you want peace, go to a library.”
This led to an argument, after which Sharma was allegedly pushed and punched in the face, leading to a broken nose.
The actor however claimed one of his friend was assaulted which led to the fight.
Khan, educated at leading English private school Winchester, is one of Bollywood’s biggest actors.
He is also a film producer and has recently been putting final touches to his spy-thriller “Agent Vinod”, which is set for release next month.
Khan became the new Nawab (Muslim prince) of the former princely state of Pataudi last year after the death of his famous cricketing father Mansur Ali Khan, better known as “Tiger Pataudi”.
