Saif Ali Khan has the best sense of humour in B-town. Since his wife Kareena Kapoor has been shooting non-stop for the last three months, the actor has seen very little of her.
We heard he actually called up Kareena's manager Poonam and requested her to give his wife an off at least one day a week, so that she may spend time with him.
Last heard, Kareena has managed to squeeze three days off and she will fly to Jaipur next week when Saif shoots a clothing commercial in the Pink City.
Mumbai, Jul 3: Renowned Bollywood choreographer Saroj Khan died early on Friday morning due to cardiac arrest. She was 71.
The three-time National Award winner, who had choreographed some of the most memorable songs in Hindi cinema, was not keeping well for some time.
She was admitted to Guru Nanak Hospital in Bandra last Saturday after she complained of breathing issues. The mandatory COVID-19 test done at the hospital showed a negative result.
“She passed away due to cardiac arrest at around 2.30 a.m. at the hospital,” Khan’s nephew Manish Jagwani said.
In a career spanning over four decades, Khan is credited with choreographing more than 2,000 songs, including Dola Re Dola from Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Devdas, Ek Do Teen from Madhuri Dixit-starrer Tezaab and Ye Ishq Haaye from Jab We Met in 2007.
She last choreographed for Tabaah Hogaye, featuring Madhuri from filmmaker Karan Johar’s production Kalank in 2019.
New Delhi, Jul 10: Actor Bhumi Pednekar, who is staying indoors like many other Bollywood celebrities, on Friday said that she has learned to prioritise what is important to her amid the COVID-19-induced lockdown.
"One thing that I have learnt about myself is that I love isolation. I love being by myself. I saw a lot of people complaining that they are bored at home or that they cannot go out. I am an extrovert, I am a very social person but this quarantine has led me to realise that I do prefer my isolation over meeting people because I haven't really been in touch with people," she said.
"I have kind of been catching over my reading, not seen much television but started watching shows. I have spent a lot of time with my mom and honesty there were days when I did nothing," she added.
The 'Pati Patni Aur Woh' actor further said that it was important loving oneself and enjoying one's own company.
"I have kind of prioritised what I feel is important in life. I have re-educated myself. But the biggest learning has been that I love being alone. And maybe I have kind of enjoyed this state because as actors you are constantly surrounded by people whether you are promoting or shooting a film," she said.
"Your immediate entourage is also like a team of quite a few people. You are constantly over the phone, you are constantly over social media," she added.
Pednekar was last seen in Karan Johar's horror film 'Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship,'.
She will next be seen in another horror thriller, 'Durgavati.'
