Actress Madhuri Dixit, who has settled back in Mumbai after a sabbatical from Bollywood, is gorging on Alphonso mangoes.

“It is mango season in Mumbai. Had forgotten how good the hapoose amba (Alphonso mango) could be,” tweeted Madhuri Dixit.

The 44-year-old was perhaps missing the taste of local mangoes as she had shifted to Denver after marrying US-based surgeon Sriram Nene. Now she is back in Mumbai for good with her husband and two children – Arin, nine and Raayan, seven.

She has already signed two films – Dedh Ishqiya and Gulab Gang.

Vishal Bhardwaj’s “Dedh Ishqiya” is a sequel to Vidya Balan’s 2010 film “Ishqiya”, while Anubhav Sinha’s “Gulab Gang” will see her playing a female gangster.

She will also be seen as a judge in the next season of “Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa”, a celebrity dance reality show, which will be aired on Colors instead of Sony this time. Source

We haven’t even stepped into March yet, but Katrina Kaif’s already dreaming about mangoes. Shooting in Cuba for Ek Tha Tiger, the diva just can’t wait to get her hands on some ripe Alphonsos, dieting be damned. As she explores the new land and its local cuisine after her shoot, Katrina reveals some food and diet secrets:

Nutri-care
I drink lots of water and eat balanced, nutritious meals and exercise to stay fit. I believe that eating nutritious food is very important and fruits form an important part of it. There are many dieting rules and one should figure out what works best for your body. Do not follow anything blindly or from reading books alone. Take professional help as well. I don’t like to eat everything together at meal times; so fruits act as good snacks in between main meals.

Fresh cut
I love mangoes and my favourite variety is Alphonso. Staying in Mumbai helps me get my fill of Alphonsos every season. I remember, during an ad campaign shoot, I had to pose with some freshly cut mangoes. I kept eating the mangoes and they had to keep replenishing them! But to tell you the truth, I like to make interesting mocktails with mango drinks. Fresh mint leaves and ice in a mango drink tastes divine. Also, mangoes make for just the perfect in-between-meal snack. Besides that, I like the simple yet cool and refreshing taste of dahi-chawal (rice with curd). More

Bollywood babe Deepika Padukone may be one of the fittest actresses in the industry but she does not believe in starving herself. In fact, she is a self-confessed foodie.

He can make girls go weak in their knees with his looks, dimpled smile and sculpted body. But John Abraham says he never had the guts to go up to a woman and express his feelings.

“All through my growing years, I’ve always had crushes on women who never reciprocated my feelings, but went after my friends. I never had the guts or the right time to go up to a woman and tell her that I really like her,” said John, who has been voted as India’s sexiest bachelor by Big CBS Prime.

John, who broke up with actress Bipasha Basu after an eight-year relationship, never even tried a pick up line on women.

Actor Imran Khan, who plays the role of ‘Kush’, a Dehradun based boy who starts off on a search for a bride for his reel life brother Ali Zafar in Yash Raj productions venture Mere Brother Ki Dulhan is actually a love guru in real life, said the actor recently.

From last two weeks media has been agog with Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt fight and subsequent patch-up news. However Sanjay Dutt once and for all clears that the so-called fight is mere media’s imagination and there is no truth in it.

“There was no spat between us. Salman is like a younger brother, who came to my house and as we went down (in garage) to talk, everyone predicted that we had a big quarrel which is untrue,” clears Sanjay.

But when Sanjay Dutt hosted a private dinner for Shahrukh Khan, Salman’s foe, a few days back people started speculating that Sanjay has joined SRK’s camp post his ‘supposed’ fight with Salman. However Sanjay declares that neither he belongs to any camp nor he believes in it.

Says Sanju, “I am one actor who is in no camp. An actor who respects me I give respect back to him. I love all my actors, I love my film industry and this is my family.” More

Sameera Reddy has joined the long list of admirers of Saifeens’s love story. “When you reach a certain age, there is no time and space for any flings whatsoever. Especially when you are an actress and in the world of glamour, it is all the more difficult to ascertain whether the person who claims to be in love with you indeed means it. This is the reason why I feel so enamored by the kind of chemistry that Saif and Kareena share. Theirs is what I call a great love story.”

One can well understand what must have touched Sameera’s heart strings. After all there was a time when she was deeply in love but now that she is single; she isn’t quite exploring the town hunting for boys.

“Do you have any suggestions for me”, laughs Sameera, “I am open to dating but then I am shying away from the filmy types. One day you are so much in love and the next day you are fighting it out on national television. Sorry boss, not my taste; I refuse to be part of such mud sledging. I am fine with outsiders coming to me, proving their worth and proposing me. They just need to have guts to do that.” More

Asin, for whom everyone is mad these days is current playing with Subhaan, 9 year old son of Sajid Nadiadwala.

“During the London schedule of the film, Subhaan just didn’t leave Asin’s side. He was giving her all the attention that she needed and was making sure that she was well taken care of.

In fact many in the unit even joked that Subhaan was perhaps making a future investment and already preparing himself as being ultra chivalrous,’ informs a unit member from London.

No wonder, Asin was heard joking with her friends that while she was used to such pampering from Salman Khan during LONDON DREAMS and READY while Akshay Kumar too was a thorough gentleman during the shoot of HOUSEFULL 2, she felt happiest in Subhaan’s company. More
