Idiots are very normal persons, says Aamir Khan

He has begun promoting his upcoming film, ‘3 Idiots’

Ahead of the release of his new film "3 Idiots", Bollywood actor Aamir Khan drew a distinction between the term "idiots" and "stupid", saying that "idiots are very normal persons" who at some point prove themselves in an "unconventional way".

At an event in a Mumbai hotel to promote the first song of Rajkumar Hirani's "3 Idiots", Aamir said: "Idiots are thought to be very normal persons but at some point of time they prove themselves to be someone with extra calibre. They are not stupid, rather they come to limelight in an unconventional way."

Actor R. Madhavan and Sharman Joshi were also present at the screening of the song "Jab life ho out of control, all is well".

There are five songs in the film.

"3 idiots" is a story of three engineering students - Sharman Joshi, Aamir Khan and R. Madhavan - and their experiences on the campus.

Kareena Kapoor and Boman Irani play important roles and Kajol makes a special appearance in the film. The campus shown in the film is of the Indian Institute of Management-Ahmedabad (IIM-A).

The film is scheduled to release on Dec 25.

Details of Shilpa’s Nov 22 wedding…

instead of the traditional mare bringing the groom to Shilpa Shetty's doorsteps, Raj Kundra has decided to ride an elaborate chariot.

It will set the tone for an elaborate yet exclusive Shilpa-Raj Kundra marriage on Nov 22 where, according to a close friend of Shilpa, "Tarun Tahiliani has designed the wedding outfit that no bride in Bollywood or outside has ever worn before".

The guest list of 150 people for the Nov 22 wedding is restricted to Shilpa and Raj's family only. Raj's parents and sister are expected any moment from London and his relatives from Ludhiana and Amritsar are expected to arrive closer to the wedding.

The wedding will be conducted fully in the Bunt tradition, according to the Mangalorean community that the Shettys belong to.

The wedding will be held at Shilpa’s good friend Kiran Bawa’s farmhouse in Khandala. The mehendi and the sangeet ceremony too will be held at the same place on November 21.

Post that a grand reception will be held at a 5-star hotel in Mumbai on November 24, which will have over 500 guests.

Shilpa and Raj will then fly to London for a reception organised by Raj for his family and friends there. This will be followed by a one-month honeymoon.
Why the rushed wedding, a lot of people are wondering.

"Shilpa's mom consulted the astrological documents and found that the next auspicious date was not before April 2010. Shilpa's first response was, 'Not without my sister'. But now that Shamita is well on the way out of 'Bigg Boss' Shilpa doesn't mind the rush, though she would be shooting until the very last moment for the Indo-Chinese production 'Desire' in Hyderabad," says a very close friend of the Shettys.

The last thing Shilpa wants to do at the moment is to work. "But a commitment is a commitment," says Shilpa's friend.

'Prem' ki ghazab kahani...

Shakespeare once said 'What's in a name' but Bollywood says everything lies in a name, especially the screen names. They have a larger-than-life impact. They have a way of not just establishing an identity but also moulding the reel-life personality of an actor. And some screen names like 'Prem' are so favorable for their stars that it changes their entire fate. Believe it or not but 'Prem' has proved to be a good omen for whoever adopted this name on screen.

It all starts with superstar Salman Khan. Sooraj Barjatya's blockbuster MAINE PYAAR KIYA introduced 'Prem' through Salman. And it went to achieve a status of an eternal lover boy in Hindi Cinema. Be it Aamir's rival-in-love in ANDAZ APNA APNA, Karisma's philandering pati in BIWI NO. 1, Twins of JUDWAA, Rani Mukherji's soulmate in KAHIN PYAR NA HO JAYE or Govinda's loveguru in PARTNER 'Prem' deposited a share of luck in Salman Khan's kitty. It kind of became a trademark for Salman.

While in the entire 90's Salman was the only one who enchanted us with his Prem, than in later years many actors tried their hand to do a 'Prem'. Shahid Kapoor was among the one who tasted success when he took the baton of essaying 'The Romantic Prem' on-screen from Salman Khan that too in Sooraj Barjatiya's superhit film VIVAAH. Further when Sonu Sood turned Prem for Barjatiya's EK VIVAAH AISA BHI it quite proved beneficial for him. It not only garnered him success, though not the commercial one, but he also managed to enter in the good books of Barjatiyas and media. EK VIVAAH... was his first big banner solo lead film.

Even Ajay Devgan witnessed the charisma that the name (Prem) carries. The name again cast its spell and Ajay's lately released ALL THE BEST turn out a huge hit at the Box-office, despite of the presence of tough contenders like BLUE & MAIN AURR MRS. KHANNA.

And now its Bollywood's new blue-eyed boy Ranbir Kapoor's turn, who is all set to try his luck with 'Prem' in the upcoming release Rajkumar Santoshi's AJAB PREM KI GHAZAB KAHANI, starring Katrina Kaif alongside. Though B-town is quite upbeat about this new Prem, it is left to be seen whether this Prem is able to carry the legacy ahead like his seniors and what ghazab he does with his ajab prem!
