DEEPIKA PADUKONE: I Have Been a Huge Fan Of Saif Since i Saw Him in Dil Chahta Hai

DEEPIKA PADUKONE tells JYOTHI VENKATESH that Kareena Kapoor is not insecure as an actress to demand that Saif should replace Deepika in Love Aaj Kal with her, just because Saif is her boy friend and Imtiaz Ali is her favorite director after Jab We Met, when he meets her at PVR Lower Parel for this interview.

In what way is Love Aaj Kal different from your earlier films?
I am quiet thrilled about my next release- Love Aaj Kal , which I feel is quite different when compared to my earlier films. Love Aaj Kal will undoubtedly go down as one of the most special films for me as an actress. I could identify with my real life a lot with the character of my reel life Meera that I have played in Love Aaj Kal. . Like me, she is today’s girl. She is very grounded, sensitive and practical. In fact, I even kept on teasing Imtiaz Ali that in spite of his hectic schedule as a film maker he may have kept on following me around in order to etch a character like that of Meera for me in Love Aaj Kal, which is totally ME.

What was your reaction when Saif compared you with Rani Mukerjee?
If Saif Ali Khan compares me with an actress of the caliber of Rani Mukerjee, I think he is only being extremely polite, kind and sweet towards me. I should say that I have learnt a lot from him as a co-actor. What I like about Saif is that he is so natural. I will unabashedly state that I have been a huge fan of his right from the time I liked watching him in Dil Chahta Hai.

Isn’t it strange but true that you have always been pitted with actors older to you except for Ranbir in Bachna Ae Haseena. Do you ever feel conscious about the age difference?
To tell you the truth, though people ask me whether I was conscious because of the age difference between Shah Rukh and me in Om Shanti Om or Akshay Kumar and me in Chandni Chowk to China or for that matter Saif and me in Love Aaj Kal, all that I’d say is that I do not feel the age difference at all. On the contrary I feel secure because all my co-actors are very experienced. It is nice to be around people like these, especially for a girl like me who has absolutely no filmi background at all.

After working with Shah Rukh Khan and Ajkshay Kumar, how comfortable were you working with the chote nawab Saif Ali Khan?
Deepika admits that it was a very good experience for her working with the unit of Love Aaj Kal. “Considering that it is their first film production, I should say that Saif as well as Dinesh have done a brilliant job. Saif and Dinesh ensured that I was comfortable throughout their shoot, as producers. It is nice to have a director like Imtiaz Ali who understands my approach to acting.

Did you have any reservations about doing a hot lip to lip kiss with Saif in Love Aaj Kal just because you are in a relationship with Ranbir Kapoor?
As an actress, I see to it that I am able to separate my personal life from my professional life. All of us have to move on in life. I am not a prude, though I am still conservative enough not to be in favor of getting into a love in relationship. I have never ever denied that I am into a relationship. I feel it is nice to have that one person with whom you can share everything in your life. Just because I am into a steady relationship with Ranbir, it does not mean that I am against doing any kissing or intimate scenes with any of my co-actors. I am a through professional. You do a scene some times because you feel you should do it and it is right.

How often was Saif’s girl friend Kareena Kapoor spotted on the sets?
Kareena was never on the sets even once when I was shooting with Saif, because, she is not the type of girl who is insecure about her man. Kareena knows that she is brilliant as an actress. If I were in her place, and I was not cast in my boy friend’s film, even I would have felt the same like Kareena if she felt that she should have been the leading lady opposite Saif in Love Aaj Kal and not me. Just because her boy friend is the producer of the film and Imtiaz Ali who is the director of the film is her favorite director, after she worked with him in Jab We Met, she did not demand that I should be replaced in Love Aaj Kal with her.

"Rod has been amazing through all of this - a real support," said a source.

The prequel will focus on Lara Croft's younger years. And therefore, the Oscar-winner has been given the boot in favour of the fresh-faced Megan, reports The Sun.

A source said: 'Angie was intent on reprising her role. She feels it's something she helped define and feels robbed that it looks likely to be handed to someone who she considers less capable than her.'

The new movie's executive producer, Dan Lin, told about.com: 'It is an origin story so it is a younger Lara Croft. It will have character-driven action.'

A source added: 'Angie isn't a fan of the Transformers films and believes Megan won't do the Lara Croft character justice. She's also annoyed because she thinks Megan copies everything from her, from her tattoos to her style.'

Jaya Bachchan: Aishwarya should have got IIFA award for 'Jodhaa Akbar'

Priyanka Chopra is a 'good actress' but daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai was more deserving of the best actress award for her work in 'Jodhaa Akbar' at the 10th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) (awards) in Macau, says Jaya Bachchan.

"For all I know she must be really good in 'Fashion'. I haven't seen it. But I've seen Priyanka's work in 'Dostana' and liked it. She's undoubtedly a good actress," Jaya told IANS.

"I don't have any objection to her winning the award at IIFA. But I wonder why Aishwarya's fine performance was ignored. I think she and the 'Jodhaa Akbar' cinematographer Kiran Deohans richly deserved recognition for their work," she added.

A lot has been said and written about "Jodhaa Akbar" director Ashutosh Gowariker's comments on Priyanka not deserving the best actress award for her performance in "Fashion" at the IIFA.

While most sections of the industry have come forward to deride Gowariker for what they see as his childish and impulsive outburst, the one aspect of his criticism against the IIFA jury awarding Priyanka and not Aishwarya that has raised eyebrows is his mention of Jaya on stage to substantiate his public objection.

"Priyanka, you are a very hardworking actress but I was just discussing with Jayaji why Aishwarya did not get the best actress award," Gowariker said when he came on stage to collect best director award for "Jodhaa Akbar" from Jaya, Abhishek and Aishwarya.

Surprisingly, Jaya not only stands up for Gowariker, but also gives him a clean chit for mentioning her in his speech.

"First of all it is being presumed that Ashutosh unnecessarily mentioned my name regarding Aishwarya's omission from the awards. The fact is, I suggested he bring up the question on stage at IIFA. We were discussing why Aishwarya has not been given any award for 'Jodhaa Akbar' and I suggested Ashutosh bring up the matter. So when he mentioned my name, he wasn't doing anything wrong," she said.

Commenting on Aishwarya's performance in the film, she said: "The entire principal cast and crew of 'Jodhaa Akbar' have been rightly nominated for the popular awards and have won also. I find it very strange that Aishwarya, who lived her part and looked every inch the royal Rajasthani queen in her body language and overall performance, was ignored."

Kareena Shivers Through The 3 Idiots Schedule In Ladakh

If you saw Kareena Kapoor getting breathless during her Ladakh schedule which ended on Monday this week, it wasn't because of her excitement level.

It was something far more immediate..and scary.

The unit of Raj Kumar Hirani’s 3 Idiots shot at the Pangong Lake in Ladakh which is 13,900 feet above sea level.Often tourists who go up there are known to complain of breathlessness due to the lack of oxygen.

And so it was for Kareena, Aamir Khan, Madhavan and Sharman Joshi who scaled new heights of derringdo without any casualty, though many people are known to collapse for lack of oxygen at the place where Kareena, the only female member of the cast, shot.

Says Kareena, “We had little oxygen, no electricity and no hot water. On top of that I was in a wedding ghagra-choli outfit in that freezing cold, can you imagine! The wind almost swept me off my feet.”

To protect herself from the freezing cold Kareena wore thermal heating along with her outfit. “But that was of very little help. Finally the unbearable cold was all worth it for a wonderful film. The boys (Kareena means Aamir and Madhavan) were great fun. And Raju Hirani is a gem.”

And now from freezing cold Kareena has suddenly gone into the simmering heat of monsoon-less Delhi. The sharp contrast in the weather has taken its toll on Kareena’s health.

Compounding her woes is the fact that she is in Delhi in time for her sister Karishma’s birthday on June 25. But Karishma is out of the country.

“Can you believe it? My bad luck I guess,” sighs Kareena.
