New Delhi, Apr 25: Rani Mukerji tied the knot at 36. While she exchanged vows with filmmaker Aditya Chopra in Italy, her contemporaries like Preity Zinta, Tabu and Urmila Matondkar continue to be in the list of 30-plus yet single. There are other Bollywood beauties like Priyanka Chopra and Amrita Rao who have also found a spot on the list.

Priyanka Chopra: In over a decade, the 31-year-old has done it all - clinched the Miss World crown, delivered blockbusters like "Krrish 3", "Barfi!" and "Fashion", crooned with international artists like Pitbull and Will.I.Am and fronted the global fashion brand GUESS as its first Bollywood actress. But it seems to have been hard luck when it comes to love. She had reportedly dated actors Harman Baweja and Shahid Kapoor, but someone is yet to put a ring on her finger.

Bipasha Basu: She once dated model-turned-actors Dino Morea and John Abraham. While she still continues to be friends with Dino, after parting ways with John in 2011 she cut off ties with him. For a few years, she kept her love life away from shutterbugs and it was just a few months ago when she declared that she was in love again. Bipasha, who has always been vocal about her beaus, officially announced her relationship with Harman Baweja. The actor, who was once linked to Priyanka, was also spotted at Bipasha's 35th birthday bash. There are also rumours of the couple getting hitched soon. Till now, they are tight-lipped about the union.

Soha Ali Khan: She has for long been in a committed relationship with fellow actor Kunal Kemmu. The 35-year-old has often said in public that her star mom Sharmila Tagore repeatedly tells her to tie the knot, but she seems to have no qualms about just dating Kunal. The "Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns" star, who is in a live-in relationship with her man, is probably waiting to turn 40 to settle down.

Neha Dhupia: She was in an on and off relationship with squash player Ritwik Bhattacharya and then was spotted with Venezuelan hunk James Sylvester in 2011. This was followed by her link-up with cricketer Yuvraj Singh but she denied this and said that when she finds her soul mate, she will let everyone know about him - but till then, she's enjoying her single status.

Amrita Rao: The petite actress is fondly remembered for her role in Sooraj R. Barjatya's 2006 hit film "Vivah", but the 32-year-old has never gone public about losing her heart to a hunk. It was only in 2008 that she sparked rumours of finding love in Pakistani band Jal's singer Farhan Saeed. A few years later, many assumed that cupid had finally struck her when it was reported that she was dating an NRI surgeon. But as of now, there seems to be no sign of a knight in shining armour sweeping her off her feet.

Raima Sen: The 34-year-old Bengali beauty, who was once reportedly dating cricketer Yuvraj Singh, admitted that she felt guilty as she couldn't fulfil her late grandmother and iconic actress Suchitra Sen's last wish - to see her get married. Though the "Chokher Bali" actress had also announced her marriage to a friend in 2012 on Twitter, a day after posting her "engagement" pictures, she backed out saying it was just a joke. Following that prank, there were hardly any link-ups rumours. For now, she looks happy being single.

While Rani recently had "a beautiful wedding in the Italian countryside", her cousin Tanishaa Mukerji, also 36, is still staying away from marital bliss.

"Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai" actress Ameesha Patel is also yet to get hitched.

Washington, May 19: Actors Brian Austin Green and Megan Fox are going their separate ways after 10 years of marriage.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, 46-year-old Green, on Monday announced the news during an episode of his podcast 'With Brian Austin Green' where he emotionally opened up about the breakup with Fox.

The 'Beverly Hills 90210' star revealed that they simply grew distant at the end of last year while Fox was away shooting a film.

Green recalled Fox saying during the conversation they had after she returned from filming, "She said, 'I realised when I was out of the country working alone that I feel more like myself, and I liked myself better during that experience and I think that might be something worth trying for me.'"

Though feeling "shocked" and "upset" at first, Green admitted that he couldn't be upset with her for being honest.

He said, "Neither one of us did anything to each other. She's always been honest with me. I've always been honest with her. We've had an amazing relationship. I will always love her. And I know she will always love me and I know as far as a family what we have built is really cool and really special."

The 'Impact Point' star shared that they intend to "still do family vacations and holidays as a family and really make that a focus for the kids."

Green went on to say that it's hard to adjust to the change and he doesn't want himself and Fox to "be at odds": "She's been my best friend for 15 years and I don't want to lose that."

He added: "There's this sense of loss of, 'How do I go on with this big part of my life that I've always known and loved and shared changing?' What does that landscape look like? What does that life look like?' ... Megan and I talked a lot about it, and it's a big concern for both of us." Aware of the scrutiny around their age difference, Green defended Fox, saying "she's really a responsible person. ... She really loves the kids and cares about what their life and their experience is."

The couple share three children together 7-year-old Noah, 6-year-old Bodhi, and 3-year-old Journey, and Green said that they are only concerned about controlling how the separation will truly affect their children.

After photos circulated online of Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, hanging out -- Fox and Baker are co-stars in the upcoming film, 'Midnight in the Switchgrass,' Green said Fox and Baker are "just friends at this point."

He said, "She met this guy, Colson, on set. I've never met him. Megan and I have talked about him. I trust her judgment; she's always had really good judgment."

Green emphasised that despite what tabloids can say, he didn't want the public to categorise Fox and Baker as "villains or that I was a victim in any way."

Fox and Green started dating in 2004 and married in 2010. Fox had filed for divorce from Green in 2015, but the couple later reconciled.

Washington D.C., Mar 1: British actor Daniel Radcliffe in a recent interview said he is not rushing back to reprise the role of young wizard, Harry Potter, anytime soon.

The 30-year-old star who rose to fame with the first eight films in J.K. Rowling's famed franchise, told Variety that he doesn't like to say no to things but reprising the role in the 'Fantastic Beasts' prequels is not something he's "rushing to do".

"I feel like those films have moved on and they're doing just fine without us. I'm happy to keep it that way. I like what my life is now," Radcliffe told the outlet.

"I'm not saying that I'll never go back into any franchise, but I like the flexibility that I have with my career now. And I don't want to get into a situation where I'm signed up for one series for years in advance," cited Variety as Radcliffe as saying.

Radcliffe is currently gearing up for his upcoming mystery-thriller 'Escape from Pretoria,' a true-life prison drama, where he is set to essay the character Tim Jenkin.

The forthcoming flick is set to hit the theatres on March 6.

Mumbai, Aug 2: Oscar-winning director Alfonso Cuaron has come aboard as an executive producer on filmmaker Chaitanya Tamhane's movie The Disciple. The Marathi feature is set to represent India at the 77th edition of the Venice Film Festival. It will be screened in the Competition section of the prestigious film gala.

The movie, which is Tamhane's follow-up to his National Award-winning feature Court, has also been selected for 2020 Toronto International Film Festival's official line-up.

"I met Chaitanya through a mentorship program where I had the opportunity to watch his very superb debut film, Court  I was immediately impressed by his sense of cinema and fearless confidence to tell stories.

"He was part of most of Roma's process and I jumped to the opportunity to be part of the process of his second film The Disciple. I believe Chaitanya is one of the most important new voices of contemporary cinema," Cuaron said in a statement.

Tamhane said he is honoured to have Cuaron aboard the film.

"It’s a bit surreal and an incredible honour for me to have one of the most recognised and acclaimed filmmakers in the world be part of 'The Disciple'. In some ways, this validation from Alfonso Cuaron is even more," he added.

The Disciple, a 127-minute long feature, stars Aditya Modak, Arun Dravid, Sumitra Bhave, and Kiran Yadnyopavit. It has been produced by “Sir” actor Vivek Gomber through his Zoo Entertainment Pvt. Ltd.

The Disciple marks Tamhane’s return to Venice after he won the Best Film - Orizzonti and Lion of the Future award for Court in 2014.

Court, a poignant commentary on India's judicial system, also won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in 2015 and was India's official entry for the Best Foreign Film at the 2016 Oscars.

Endeavor Content will sell North American rights and New Europe Film Sales boards the film as an international sales agent.
