One minute they are locked in bashful fun, and the next they are taking potshots at each other. Or at least, one of them is.


Dating a superstar doesn’t get more complicated than this.


As ex-lovers Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan attempted to give Bollywood break-up traditions a matured twist by reuniting on-screen, four-and-a- half-years since they ended their romantic sojourn, only to get caught up in another emotional drama of their own.


They were caught, on camera during the promotion of their new movie ‘Ek Tha Tiger’, being indifferent to one another. “During an interview for a leading Indian television channel, the interviewer was caught unawares when Salman and Katrina wouldn’t look at each other,” reveals a crew member. “Salman kept looking elsewhere while she talked. He was even blowing bubbles and mocking her.”


Although Kat took it in the chin, her discomfort was clearly evident.


His strange behaviour was consistent in other televised interviews as well. “It amazes me how Katrina puts up with it. He’s so temperamental.


It’s tough to comprehend what he is up to. One minute he is laughing and the next, he’s walking out in a huff,” claims another media personality. Wonder if his sudden change in mood was triggered by reports of Katrina’s secret date with Ranbir Kapoor, just days ahead of the ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ release.


“Salman is known to be possessive about his women, so his behaviour could be an outcome of those stories,” reasons another film source.


It got to a point where Katrina refused to do any more promotional work with Salman under the pretext of poor health. “He had to return to the studios of the same TV channel to meet his fans, but without his lady by his side. Surely she was not going to take things sitting down,” adds the crew member.


“Katrina isn’t someone who makes a hue and cry about such cases, so she preferred to stay away from the madness.”


Salman, however, attempted to salvage the situation by praising and complimenting her for getting this far in Bollywood on her own. “His efforts did make an impact as we soon caught images of Sallu and Kat enjoying an evening out with his family. They were together, and there was no love lost,” informs a reporter.


Another shoot for a dance telly show caught them getting cozy, leaving the audience rather confused. “Does this mean they are back together? Are they just a dysfunctional couple?” asks many fans. Clearly he is unable to let her go, and she is unable to say no because he is, in fact, the person who made her a star. If you recall, Salman and Katrina were once a hot couple, until his ego took a massive blow when she refused to give up her new-found celeb status to set up his home.


Her sudden meteoric rise to fame from a damsel in distress into a famed star was something that Salman hadn’t quite planned, nor had she.


Soon, rifts in the love story appeared despite talks of their marriage making the rounds.


Salman was seen throwing tantrums and giving her the royal snub at the promotions of their then box-office turkey ‘Yuvvraj’. “He even refused to sit next to her during the press meet in Mumbai,” recalls an entertainment reporter. “And, all the while she just smiled her way through.”


Many news reports later emerged that it was her proximity to a new-star- on-the-block that had triggered the worst side in Salman, and their eventual break-up.


They did make rare appearances for telly shows, and for random item songs, but the uneasiness was there for everyone to see.


Wonder if the success of ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ will trigger another round of romance, or not.

London, Mar 19: "Game of Thrones" star Indira Varma has revealed that she has tested positive for coronavirus.

Her diagnosis comes two days after fellow "Game of Thrones" actor Kristofer Hivju also said that he tested positive for the COVID-19 infection.

Varma, who played the role of Ellaria Sand in the epic HBO series, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share the news.

"I'm in bed with it and it's not nice. Stay safe and healthy and be kind to your fellow people," she wrote.

The 46-year-old actor was starring in the modern take of Anton Chekhov's play "The Seagull" in London's West End, alongside "Game of Thrones" alum Emilia Clarke.

The play is on hold due to the pandemic.

"So sad our and so many other shows around the world have gone dark affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. We hope to be back soon and urge you all (and the govt) to support us when we do. Phoenix/ Seagull rising from the ashes (sic)," Varma wrote in her post with photos from the rehearsals.

Varma and Hivju join Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Idris Elba, Olga Kurylenko, and Rachel Matthews among the Hollywood celebrities who contracted the virus.

Jaipur, Jan 24: Actor Sonali Bendre has said that she came into the movies to make money but fell in love with the profession where she discovered herself and found her family and friends. The 45-year-old actor said she owed a lot to Bollywood which is the most wonderful place to be, both mentally as well as creatively.

"I came into movies to make money and I fell in love with the profession. It was the most wonderful place to be, mentally and creatively," she said.

"I found myself there, found my friends and family over there. I owe a lot to Bollywood. It was one of the most wonderful things that happened to me," Sonali said here on Thursday.

The actor said her entry into movies by purely because she happened to be at the right place and at the right time.

Sonali added when acting offers came her way she knew that in no other field could she have made as much money, and as quickly, as she did in movies.

"Basically, I got into this because it was great money," she said.

The actor was speaking at the Jaipur Literature Festival and also talked about books and how her book club named ‘Sonali's Book Club' came into being.

Sonali, who has been convalescing after undergoing treatment for cancer in the US, said that books gave her strength and kept her afloat while she was going through one of the toughest phases of her life.

The actor was diagnosed with high grade cancer in July 2018 and underwent treatment for it in New York.

"Books were my friends other than my sisters while I was growing up. I'm nowhere remotely connected to movies. I have a very middle class Maharashtrian upbringing. When I got into movies, it was like being on another planet. Again in this world where it was easy to feel the peer pressure and do certain things or not do certain things, or look a certain way, books kept me grounded," she said.

"'A Gentleman in Moscow' (a 2016 novel by Amor Towles) was uplifting and I got so much strength from that book during my treatment in New York," Sonali said.

The actor, who often shares posts about books and authors on social media, said one should stop feeling guilty about not completing a book.

"Sometimes you start judging yourself by not completing a book, but I have reached a stage where I understand that I'm a book-lover, but that doesn't mean I will like all the books. It's okay if you don't like a book," she said.

Sonali also said that nobody wanted to know about the intellectual capacity of Bollywood stars as it was not "entertainment enough or gossipy enough".

Earlier before her session, Sonali launched author Ashwin Sanghi's latest book ‘The Vault of Vishnu', the sixth book in the Bharat series, at the 13th edition of the festival.

New Delhi, Jan 11: The Delhi High Court on Saturday restrained from releasing Deepika Padukone-starrer 'Chhapaak' movie without due credits to the lawyer who represented the acid attack survivor, Lakshmi Agarwal, in her legal battle.

The restraint will be effective from January 15 in multiplexes and live streaming and for others from January 17.

The court directed filmmaker Meghna Gulzar to give due credit to lawyer Aparna Bhat who fought the criminal case for the acid survivor on whose life the movie is based.

It passed the order on a petition filed by Fox Studio challenging a trial court order which had directed the filmmakers to give credit to Bhat.

Delhi's Patiala House Court had earlier this week passed an order granting an ex-parte interim mandatory injunction directed that the filmmaker has to carry a line "Aparna Bhat continues to fight cases of sexual and physical violence against women" during the screening of the film.

Fox Studios then requested the Delhi High Court to set aside the trial court order.

The petitioner submitted that if the order passed in a suit filed just one day before the release of the film, is not vacated, varied or modified, then the petitioner will suffer grave injustice and irreparable harm and injury.

The movie, which hit the cinemas yesterday, is based on Laxmi's life. In 2005, at the age of 15, she was allegedly attacked by a spurned lover.

Laxmi had to undergo several surgeries. Later, she started helping other acid attack survivors and promoted campaigns to stop such gruesome attacks.
