They say that dog is a man's best friend… well, we say that PETA is any animals' best friend. The latest campaign from the nature loving society is with heartthrob Imran Khan. The actor who is all ready with his next film Delhi Belly posed for PETA with his dog. The campaign that Imran is doing is to promote the adoption of stray dogs. 'Tony saved my life. You can change a homeless dog's life. Please adopt' reads the ad. Surely, one message to think about. 

The last instalment of the film Murder set pulses racing with the steamy scenes between the lead pair Mallika Sherawat and Emraan Hashmi. Well, the sequel to the film Murder 2 is all set to beat the record with Jacqueline Fernandez (who replaces Mallika) going all out for the film. Just recently, Jacqueline and Emraan were shooting in Goa for Murder 2 , and could not resist shopping from the local flea markets. Apparently every time Mohit Suri would call 'cut', Jacqueline would make a bee line to the nearest market to pick up stuff. ApnaDesi also has learnt that Murder 2 will also future the story of a serial killer in addition to the already talked about racy scenes between the new leading lady Jacqueline and Emraan. The film which is currently in the post production stages was shot in Goa around the Christmas and New Year, as they are the peak tourism season. The serial killer in the film whose identity is being carefully guarded is said to be based o

"The sexy is only a tiny part of me….I am pretty much forced to look sexy," says the famous 'Babuji girl' Yana Gupta, in the recent edition of FHM. Yana leaves nothing to imagination on the magazine cover! In this issue, Yana talks about her music album, taking up roles in films which demand her to speak in Hindi, her knowledge of abusive words, her being a compulsive party-goer and answer to the eternal question… 'Is she single?' All this and much more in the latest edition of FHM!

I get excited; actually, super excited when I hear this quote from Amrita Rao, "The option for men to date Amrita Rao is open, why not?" So, it proves that Rao isn't getting married, not that I know of. But as of now, both her personal life and professional life are going a bit off track, again, courtesy - the little birdy. While Love U... Mr. Kalakaar hasn't opened well at the box office, her personal life is in a mess leading to tittle-tattle about her assumed relationship with some American doctor. "That is ridiculous and I don't know where these rumours begin to spread from, what's the epicentre of the rumour. By doing fewer films doesn't mean that I am going to tie the knot. That's insane and I really find it outrageously stupid. There are so many actresses who are senior to me who haven't tied the knot. Why should I be the one getting hitched so early? My focus is films right now and I will be here for a few years to come,&

An ex-Miss India International (2006), established model, face of couple of dozen commercials and now a leading lady - Sonalli Sehgall has been enjoying a smooth and steady ride in the world of glamour. A Punjabi who hails from Kolkata, has travelled the world and now considers Mumbai as her home, Sonalli is expectedly confident as she gets into a chat with Joginder Tuteja about playing one of the leading ladies in Pyaar ka Punchnama . Over to the lady who is currently enjoying her 'Chak Glassi' stint while burning the dance floors. Sonalli, you get to play one of the lead protagonists in a comedy for your debut effort - A promising start indeed, isn't it? I actually think it is quite exciting. I am a very cautious person otherwise and I gave Pyaar Ka Punchnama a good thought before I was sure I wanted to do it. And what really is the reason behind you being so cautious? After all for an outsider like you who doesn't quite belong to the industry or an

Still hurting from the non-performance of Veer where he couldn't put his foot down as a result of which the film not just became lengthy but also boring after a while, Salman is now ensuring that he is in synch with the director when it comes to creative decisions. He did that earlier with Dabangg and now he has done something like this for Ready as well where one such decision has been to cut short the length of the Hindi version of Ready which is the namesake remake of Telugu blockbuster featuring Ram and Genelia D'Souza. "Bhai was very impressed with the original film but he knew that for the film to cater to all-India sensibilities, especially up North as well as Central region, Ready had to be much crisper. This meant that not just the length of the film had to be controlled, even the humour quotient had to be re-looked at while certain portions in the first half had to be drastically changed", informs a source. What further helped the show to run smoothly wa

It's going to be a one-to-one combat between Chitrangda and Vivek Oberoi in Krissh 2 . And no fake shots, please. She is getting into shape to really take on Oberoi. It's a different body-type for Chitrangda Singh as she prepares to get fighting-fit for Rakesh Roshan's Krrish 2 . When the sultry actress was invited to listen to her role, the first thing she was told was, she must look capable of taking on 8-10 men in fistfights, and that includes flipping over the beefy body-builders in the fight to finish. Chitrangda obviously feels it's a great challenge ahead for her. Says the actress, "I really need to look convincing doing this. I don't want to look like Angelina Jolie in Salt ...you know, too svelte to beat up the guys like she was shown to be. I want a body type like Halle Berry's." To beat Berry's body, Chitrangda starts "stress training" from August, right after she finishes shooting for Ishaan where she needs to

This review is kind of difficult to write. I spent most of my time watching this episode on Twitter, which I don’t actually like to do because I find it distracting. But I enjoy the community aspect. My fellow Supernatural fans were divided. And that’s fine. It’s not unusual that Supernatural fans all agree on an episode (except for the funny ones, usually). But before we debate the “cliffhanger” and the new direction Castiel has taken, let’s summarize a bit of what happened. Ben and Lisa The first episode of the two part Supernatural finale focused primarily on Dean, as we had been promised. And because it focused on Dean, it involved Ben and Lisa. Crowley had them kidnapped in order to keep Dean preoccupied and keep his nose out of what Castiel and Crowley were doing with Purgatory. Dean, embracer of guilt that he is, was bound and determined to rescue them, and tortured a lot of demons in his attempt to do so. Eventually, help came in the form of Balthazar, who was told by the

Sebastian Roché creates a memorable presence every time he appears on any screen. Sebastian brings to every character a suave affability, biting wit, and instantly apparent intelligence that steals every scene. As Balthazar on Supernatural, Roché portrays an angel who has not quite 'fallen' as much as has gone on an Earth bound freedom-bender, faking his own death to escape the anarchy that has gripped Heaven. Initially Balthazar appeared as an antagonist, selling the weapons of heaven in exchange for human souls. In his first encounter with Dean and Sam, Balthazar showed obvious contempt for human kind, but as the season has rolled on he has softened towards the brothers, even protecting them at one point, and more importantly has taken concern with the looming war in Heaven. Sam and Dean felt both shocked and betrayed to find out that Castiel was working with a demon in an attempt to turn back the Archangel Raphael's coup attempt, but one question looming in the face

Dean gets a call from Ben saying that some demons (well, Ben calls them "men", but the kid doesn't know better) broke into the house, killed Lisa's new boyfriend and is coming for Dean's former temporary family? Well, the second sneak peek for part 1 of tonight's Supernatural season finale (part 1 being called "Let It Bleed") shows exactly who had Ben and Lisa kidnapped, although the identity of the person will probably not shock you. Supernatural fans, I have to admit...I'm really excited for tonight's finale. Knowing that we'll be getting a season 7 of the show has made me breathe easier about any potential cliffhanger tonight (because God knows this show loves to torture us like that over the summer). And I really want to see how Dean and Bobby deal with the wall in Sam's head coming down. We have a few articles for you today in anticipation of tonight's finale, including our last slide-show for this season and a summar

Wowee! There was a whole lot of everything in last night’s season finale of Grey’s Anatomy. There wasn’t a huge tragedy which put our favorite surgeons in danger, though there was a major accident (more on the later) but this episode was certainly an emotional rollercoaster if there ever was one. Hope, sadness, despair, happiness…I think I may have felt almost every emotion. Major developments took place for many of our core characters in last night’s episode so let’s get to them, couple by couple, shall we… greys anatomy Meredith & Derek: The episode began with their adoption counselor visiting the site of their future home. Shortly thereafter, the aftermath of Alex’s drunken confession that Meredith messed with the Alzheimer’s trial goes down. With hope that the trial can still remain blind if she withholds the information, Meredith keeps her mouth shut. As the Chief and Derek badger and berate Meredith, Alex writes down what he saw her do. With the information in hand, the

The episode title said it all "The Change in the Game", but in Bones season finales in the past there has been much build up with little pay off. These have included the dream/coma sequence of season 4, followed by Booth (David Boreanaz) last year shipping off to Afghanistan and only going for a chaste hand hold with Brennan (Emily Deschanel). This year though the ending was a lot more 'who and the what now?!' Be warned if you haven't seen the finale and intend to, stop here as there are major spoilers ahead. So yes that really did just happen and I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it. After last weeks ambiguous 'did they/didn't they' moment we got secure confirmation that it was indeed the former of these two options, as Brennan revealed to Booth at the end of the finale that she is pregnant... and he is the father. The main reason for my somewhat dismay to the story is that it has all happened off camera, I know the reason for

Cougar Town is most certainly a goofy, sometimes weird comedy. I usually enjoy those zany parts of the series, but I’ll be the first to admit that sometimes Town goes a little too far into the broad humor that reminds me of some of the lesser episodes of Scrubs. I mean those really bad episodes of Scrubs were often insufferable and Cougar Town never goes that far, but the last few weeks, I have gotten that vibe from certain stories here. I don’t really think it is part of some larger, troubling trend, but last weeks’ stupid Grayson story was followed up by a fairly goofy story about weird kids in the neighborhood who draw evil things with their sidewalk chalk. Listen, I’m all for a series embracing its goofiness and its zaniness, but these two stories feel a bit much, at least to me personally. I saw a few people on Twitter talking about how hilarious the sidewalk children were, and you know what, good for them. Comedy is so subjective and everyone likes completely different things.

I sort of got the inkling last night who was going home. I'll tell you why in a minute, but first, let's get down to the nitty gritty. The night began with an introduction to the top 3 and an extended advertisement for Super 8, which looks completely awesome. The kids took home cameras and a hug from JJ Abrams. I would have snuck a business card in his pocket, but whatever. Instead of going in order I'm going to talk about the filler first, then the hometown visits, and then results. There was a Ford video (which seem to be getting increasingly irrelevant yes?) on the beach. Il Lovo? I missed their name but it was pretty awesome to hear Italian up on that stage sung by three classically trained (and handsome) men. Nicole Scherzinger: I think I spelled your last name right, and I know you can sing, but why? She started her career as a theater and dance major and I just... Let's just say it wasn't my cup of tea. On to the hometown visits. Haley was firs

The critically acclaimed show, Breaking Bad , will have its third season released on DVD and Blu-ray on June 7th.  The Los Angeles Times calls Breaking Bad "the best show on television", and it won two 2010 Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for Bryan Cranston and Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for Aaron Paul. In the third season, we learned that Walter White's cancer was in remission.  But the chemistry teacher-turned-meth maker still couldn't catch a real break.  His wife (Anna Gunn) had chosen to end their marriage and filed for divorce.  His brother-in-law (Dean Norris), who happens to be a DEA agent, is out to bust him.  And a Mexican drug cartel wants him dead.  In other words, things are not looking up for Walter. The special features of the Breaking Bad DVD and Blu-ray set includes: Cast commentary on Season 3 Gag Reel Bryan Cranston Answers Fan Questions Unused Footage Below is a trailer for the

Earlier this morning we posted the first photos of the upcoming CW drama, The Ringer (view them here). Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as Bridget, a recently sober young woman who is a witness to a murder. Her FBI handler, Agent Victor Machado (played by Nestor Carbonell), swears that he can protect her, but she chooses to escape to New York City. There, she reunites with her twin sister Siobhan (also played by Gellar). The two have been estranged but become close again. Siobhan is a wealthy woman, married to the dashing Andrew Martin (played by Ioan Gruffudd). She's also friends with a woman named Gemma (played by Tara Summers) and her husband Henry (Kristoffer Polaha). But all of these people have secrets, and when Siobhan mysteriously disappears, Bridget decides to assume her sister's identity and life. She soon learns that someone has put a hit out on Siobhan, leaving her in the very danger she set out to escape. Below is the first trailer for The Ringer, which will

Hart of Dixie is being produced by Gossip Girl and The O.C. producers Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage. Schwartz recently commented that this show is like a throwback to the WB dramas of the old days: Felicity, Gilmore Girls and Everwood. Rachel Bilson stars as Zoe, a new and driven medical student. Zoe wants to follow in her father's footsteps and become a cardio-thoracic surgeon after graduation. While she's at the top of her class, something goes awry after graduation, and all of her plans get derailed. She decides to accept a job offer by a mysterious Dr. Harley Wilkes, who lives in Bluebell, Alabama. But when Zoe arrives in Bluebell, she learns that Wilkes has died and left his half of the medical practice to her. Not everyone in Bluebell greets her warmly, including her new partner Dr. Brick Breeland and his daughter, Lemon Breeland (played by Jamie King). She does manage to make a few friends, including a former football star named Lavon Hayes (played by Cres

Castle fans around the world are still mourning the loss of our beloved Captain Montgomery after he died to save Detective Beckett in the season 3 finale earlier this week. However, his death was not the most surprising twist of events that The Powers That Be threw our way. The most shocking moment turned out to be the cliffhanger, in which Beckett ended up getting shot by a sniper during Captain Montgomery's funeral. As if that wasn't shocking enough, after Kate was hit, the episode ended with Castle begging her to stay with him and then uttering those very important three words over and over. Talk about an emotional rollercoaster of an episode. Now we have four months of summer hiatus to suffer through, but we already have a few tidbits to satisfy your curiosity. Castle 's creator, Andrew Marlowe, admits that he has "not fully finished constructing the season premiere episode for season four," he told  Entertainment Weekly . "There are a lot o

I'm very excited about the debut of The Secret Circle on The CW this coming fall (where it will air at 9:00 p.m. on Thursday nights after The Vampire Diaries). The Secret Circle is based on a book series of the same name written by L.J. Smith (also the author of The Vampire Diaries books). Produced by TVD showrunner Kevin Williamson, The Secret Circle stars Britt Robertson as Cassie, a normal and happy teenager until her mother dies in a fire. She moves to Chance Harbor, Washington to live with her grandmother Jane. After meeting some friends at school - including the friendly Diana (Shelley Hennig), her boyfriend Adam (Thomas Dekker), the bitch Faye (Phoebe Tonkin) and her friend Melissa (Jessica Parker Kennedy), and the moody Nick (Louis Hunter) - Cassie realizes that these people know a lot more about her than she does. The truth is, Cassie is a witch, as are her highschool friends, who want her to join their Secret Circle coven and complete their circle. But after Cass

The CW released its 2011-2012 schedule today (view it here) and Gossip Girl will be moving to 8:00 p.m. on Monday nights coming the fall and will lead into the new show Hart of Dixie. Before we share a bit of what's in store for season 4 of Gossip Girl, let's recap. In the recent season finale, Chuck decided to step aside and leave Blair free to marry Prince Louis. The engaged couple decided to head to Monaco to spend the summer there. Serena, meanwhile, headed off to California and stumbled upon a job for a Hollywood director. We also learned that cousin Charlie wasn't actually Carol's daughter. She was a girl named Ivy hired by Carol to fool the family and steal Lily's checks. Chuck and Nate decided to go on a trip around the world, while Vanessa privately sold Dan's manuscript behind his back. When season 5 opens, we'll be in Los Angeles. After enjoying their vacation, Chuck and Nate will decide to visit Serena. Back in Manhattan, Blair will

With the announcement of The CW's official 2011-2012 schedule ( view it here ), we've also learned more about what's in store for the residents of Mystic Falls in season 3 of The Vampire Diaries. The season finale of The Vampire Diaries left us reeling. Klaus had convinced Stefan to drink a great deal of human blood, re-awakening the monster inside of him, and told him that he would save Damon's life if Stefan would agree to accompany him out of town. Stefan agreed and Klaus honered his promise: he sent the cure for Damon's werewolf bite with Katherine. She delivered the cure, but also stumbled upon Damon and Elena kissing. While on his deathbed, Damon begged Elena for her forgiveness and she granted it. After Katherine got in a few digs about Elena loving both brothers, she took off, now free from Klaus' compulsion (though he told Stefan they would catch up with her soon enough). Caroline reconciled with her mother, while Bonnie managed to bring Jerem

Nikita fans were thrilled to learn that the show had been renewed for a second season after essentially being "on the bubble". They may be less thrilled to learn that Nikita has been moved to Friday nights at 8:00 p.m., but Smallville and Supernatural have both done well on that night and it's better than the show being canceled! (view the complete CW 2011-2012 schedule here). Thanks to The CW, we have our first small batch of spoilers for season 2 of Nikita. When we last saw everyone, Nikita and Michael had driven off with one of Percy's black boxes, while Alex and Nikita had parted ways after Alex learned that Nikita had physically killed her father. Alex seemed determined to hunt down the people who ordered the hit on her family, but she was side-tracked by Amanda, who has now joined Oversight and wants Alex to come with for her. In season 2, Nikita and Michael will continue to work together. They still have the black box in their possession and are determi
