Cosmopolitan cover actress Priyanka Chopra

The author adds:
Priyanka Chopra features on the 12th Anniversary Edition of Cosmopolitan.
They always say that 'Diamonds are a girl's best friend'. But the shocking thing that we discovered is that there are times when even the best of diamonds loses its shine! Don't believe us? Then check out the latest edition of 'Cosmopolitan' that has got not just Priyanka Chopra adorning the cover.
Priyanka looks very elegant and beautiful in the green dress, so much so that shines brighter than the diamonds on the cover! No wonder then, she is aptly called the 'Sunshine' girl of Bollywood! Even though Priyanka does not speak more than what she has told in her zillion interviews so far, this issue does make a good read due to the way she has presented her answers!
Way to go, Priyanka. And Congratulations to 'Cosmopolitan' team as the mag completes 12 glorious years!

Priyanka Chopra Receives Jin Jue Award at Shanghai International Film Festival

As HT CITY reports (CLICK ON THE IMAGE ABOVE TO READ THE REPORT), “Ashutosh Gowarikar may have his views about Priyanka Chopra’s acting prowess but the world seems to be at her feet like never before”. The actress, who writes a column for HT City, and has a huge fan-following, yesterday became the first ever Bollywood personality to be awarded the TOP HONOUR, the prestigious Jin Jue Award, for her outstanding work, at the Shanghai International Film Festival.

An International Jury comprising seven famous professionals from the world film industry decides the award. Although Priyanka had to cancel plans to personally collect the award at the last minute, she was ecstatic at having been chosen for the honor and said, “I feel very privileged... As an actor, it is very encouraging to be recognized for your work. For me, an award such as this on such a big international platform gives me an opportunity to present India and our cinema to the world.”

It had been a great year for her. This award is the tenth for her in the past six months, the most recent one being the Best Actress trophy at the IIFA 2009. Priyanka said she was “sorely disappointed at not being able to go as she had made a commitment.”

This year The Shanghai International Film Festival was attended by the likes of Ewan McGregor, Isabelle Hupert, Quincy Jones, Stephen Daldry, Michael Rosenberg and Lucelia Santos.

Ashutosh Gowarikar made some controversial remarks about Priyanka Chopra at this year's International Indian Film Academy Awards (IIFA) in Macau, China, as most of her fans and movie enthusiasts may recollect. He said, "Priyanka I love you, but I don't know how you got the award for Best Actress when Aishwarya was also nominated in the same category for Jodhaa Akbar." He then added, "Maybe it is because you are very hard-working and she is a natural..."

While Priyanka herself seems to have not taken his comments seriously, as I find from various forums, her fans, well wishers and many right thinking people did not appreciate Ashutosh Gowarikar’s comments. It is interesting to note that Priyanka and Gowarikar are currently working together on their upcoming film "What's your Rashee?"

Anjaana Anjaani delayed to avoid clash with Babri Masjid verdict

On September 24 the Allahabad High Court is expected to give a judgment in controversial Babri Masjid Demolition case, and it has given film makers cold jitters. Two of the mega budget movies, “Robot” and “Anjaana Anjaani” earlier scheduled for released this Friday, have been postponed to October 1, 2010.

The comedy- romantic flick “Anjaana Anjaani” now will hit theatres on 1st October instead of 24th September. The main reason given is the Ayodhya verdict which will be declared on 24th September. Gossip sources report that the film’s hero Ranbir Kapoor had a talk with the producers on this serious issue and the Babri Masjid Demolition case verdict should be respected and it is not wise to release the film on a date to clash with it. The director Siddharth Anand said that he doesn’t want to risk the film’s release and it won’t be a big deal if it is delayed by a week. The film took about a year to produce and surely the producers do not want to risk its fate at the box-office by clashing with Ayodhya-Babri Masjid cases.

Anjaana Anjaani, directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala (under his Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment Pvt. Ltd banner) and Sharan Kapoor (under his IBC Motion Pictures banner) features Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Zayed Khan. The film’s music is by Vishal-Shekhar and cinematography by Ravi K. Chandran.

The romantic comedy film is about Kiara (Priyanka Chopra), based in San Francisco, while Akash (Ranbir Kapoor) is a New York City boy, both trying to find luck after several failures in their careers and in love lives. Both are fed up and they decide to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge (Brooklyn Bridge? Remember the poem by American poet Carl Sandberg?), and they land up on the same bridge at the same time, when instead of killing himself, Akash stops Kiara from jumping and tells her to travel with him to Las Vegas, the sin capital of the world, to make it big (from gambling?).
