On March 14, 2007 in a verdict, Supreme Court of India stayed arrest warrant issued against Hollywood Star Richard Gere for publicly kissing Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty during a event held for HIV- AIDS awareness programme in New Delhi on 16th April, 2007 under Obscenity Act.
This public kissing offended the feelings of the Hindu hardliners- who- alleged pair of being maligning India’s conservative culture. Consequently an Indian judge issued an arrest warrant against Gere and summoned Shetty, however summons against Shetty was suspended later on. Gere who is a die-hard devout Buddhist is deeply involved in act of charities in India related to HIV and Orphans.
After much guessing, refusing, smiling and shying, the truth has finally slipped out of the Kapoor prince and promising debutant Ranbir, who admitted in an interview that he has been dating an equally ravishing and promising Deepika Padukone for past couple of weeks.
These new kids in the tinsel town have constantly been in news for their love-life. Ranbir has been linked to Sonam Kapoor and Deepika Padukone has been linked to Yuvraj apart from their linkups with each-other. Now, Ranbir has declared that both of them had serious liking for each other and fell in love on the sets of Siddharth Anand’s ‘Bachna Ae Haseenon’ in Australia and thereafter shooting for the Pepsi ad together.
So this confirms the rumours that, Ranbir was overheard telling Deepika, “I love you” while the two were backstage during the 53rd Annual Filmfare Awards ceremony and Deepika had whispered shyly “I love you too”.
Also that evening, at an after awards party by Farah Aqeel Khan, Kapoor and Padukone were together the whole night holding hands and canoodling.
As for now, the couple has no plans to get married and are not even on a spree to sign movies together. Career is what has taken the top priority for both the actors.

After the mind-blowing success of ‘Shivaji: The Boss’, director Shankar had announced that he will repeat the 57-year-old actor Rajnikant in ‘Robot‘ - a Rs.1 billion film, which the industry predicts will be a greater success. Maestro A.R. Rahman will compose the music. The film will be released in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages and will be distributed by London-based Ayingaran International.
Aishwarya Rai has been roped in by Shankar to pair opposite Rajnikant. Ash has signed the film for 1.5 crores and she has replaced Deepika Padukone who was considered earlier for the role. With this Rajnikanth has fulfilled his desire to work with Ash who couldn’t do Sivaji due to date problems. Meanwhile the official contract of the film has been approved by Amitabh Bachchan himself after altering few clauses and signed by Aishwarya.


Finally, Kangana Ranaut has bagged her first endorsement project, and that too opposite none other than Salman Khan. Kangana has been chosen by a leading international shoes company Red Tape to endorse their brand of footwear which had been endorsed by Salman Khan so far.
Until now Red Tape manufactured footwear only for men with Salman as their ambassador. Now, the company is launching its female lineup with Kangana, who has already shot spots for hoardings and magazines and will soon be doing a TV ad with Salman Khan for the brand.
Apparently Red Tape has paid Kangana a whopping figure and has promised to enhance the amount by thirty percent in the next financial year. On being questioned about the reason for she being chosen for the brand, Kangana explains, “It was my my casual looks, I guess. The brand isn’t associated with formal shoes. Only sporty footwear, sneakers etc. They want me to endorse their shoes in my jeans and with my curly hair.”
Kangana is very excited about working with Salman, “It’s a good thought. I’m excited about the ad with Salman. I’ve always been his fan. I think he’s the only rock star in our cinema. I had watched him dance at an awards function and thought I’d be paired with him one day. It’s happening sooner than I thought.”
