Salman Khan wants to get married and have children!
By Subhash K Jha: Even as he shoots in Panchgani for his home
production Dabanng (produced by Arbaaz Khan) Salman has his
hands full with loads and loads of young fans, who seem to be
flocking into his temporary residence in numbers larger than
the security can handle.
The reason for this is simple. Salman is staying at a resort
called the Ravine in Panchgani. And right next door is a kids' school.
Once the kids got to know who's staying next-door they have been
abandoning their studies, climbing across the wall dividing the school
from the resort to meet their Salman Uncle.
Says a source close to Salman, "Once the school kids from
the school next-door got to know Salman was staying at the resort
they've been spending as much time as possible with
the star in their midst. At first the Dabanng unit tried to keep
Salman's presence at the Ravine a secret. But the news of his
presence spread like wildfire and the kids are now flocking in
wide numbers every day."
Salman has been entertaining his next-door neighbors in all the
time he has away from shooting.
Says the source, "He gives the kids instructions on physical
training, health, diet and hygiene. But then he got to know that
they've been climbing over the dividing wall and probably
bunking classes. Now he's very particular about when and how
they make they come to meet him."
The source says Salman's attachment to kids is growing by the day.
He has been heard telling his close family and friends that he wants
to get married and have children.

Along with being good friends and doing a lot of things together,
it seems that bolywood supper star Shahrukh Khan and Karan Johar are in sync with their new year's celebrations as well.
Mannat, SRK's Bandra residence seems to be the place to be for SRK in keeping with plans for a quiet family time.
While Karan continues to move ahead with the editing
and soundwork of MY NAME IS KHAN in Mumbai, which compels him to
abandon celebration.
Sources reveal that Karan's initial plans were to ring in the New
Year abroad with Dubai villa as the pit-stop for SRK over the holidays.
Now it seems that SRK will return from Dubai to spend a quiet new year
at his home with Karan canceling his overseas plans as he did last year
due to the November terror attacks in Mumbai.

avatar is a supper 3d movie which earns high return
the 3d avatar movie by James Cameron towers high at $75 million,
which is almost 20 million dollars higher than runner-up '
Sherlock Holmes'. A strong Christmas Day at the U.S. Box
Office didn't give " Sherlock Holmes " the push it needed
to dethrone James Cameron's sci-fi love story " Avatar "
over the weekend (25-27 Dec 09).
it was the top film in the U.S. and Canada with $75 million in sales
as Hollywood posted its highest-grossing weekend ever.
Receipts totaled $278 million.
the director of avatar mr.james cameron is more often
than not the main marketing tool. He has endorsed RealD,
says the company, which has about 5,000 screens using its system.
But he, his wife and his production partner were photographed
at the premiere in Japan wearing XpanD glasses, which work on
2,000 screens worldwide. Dolby says its glasses work with 2,200 screens,
but it has no Cameron connection. The company helpfully
points out instead how a malfunction in the RealD system
spoiled a press preview of "Avatar."
The battle over what glasses patrons wear is a big deal because
exhibitors are convinced that 3-D, while seeming like a gimmick now,
will lure movie lovers away from their crisp high-definition
widescreen TVs at home and back to the theater. But Maria Costeira,
the chief executive of XpanD, believes the sky's
the limit: "Eventually, we'll see 3-D movies on airplanes as well."
The fight over the glasses may well intensify because TV makers are now
pushing 3-D TVs for the home as a way to increase their sales of more expensive sets.
Despite the marketing effort, when it comes down to choosing a 3-D system,
many exhibitors are making a decision based on one factor: Do they want
to be in the cleaning as well as the movie business?
The expensive Dolby and XpanD glasses are going into a dishwasher after each use,
not the trash. Both companies recommend that theater owners clean
them in an industrial-grade machine. (To prevent pilfering, Dolby
and XpanD glasses can also contain built-in antitheft tags that can
be activated by exit-door sensors.)
XpanD offers its theater partners disposable wipes that it can
distribute to customers along with their tickets to assure them
the glasses are germ-free.
RealD, whose cheap throwaway glasses were being perceived as a liability,
has addressed concerns of hygiene. Theater owners are now encouraged to
ship back the used glasses to the company, which will clean, repair and
repackage them for other theaters.
But in all the hubbub about each product's advantages and which system
Mr. Cameron really, truly loves, the most important question remains
unanswered: does one system create a better looking 3-D picture than another?
"I don't think the consumer can tell the difference," said Joe Miraglia,
the director of design, construction, and facilities for ArcLight Cinemas,
a chain of luxury theaters based in Hollywood. The movie chain uses each
system in one or more of its theaters, and finds the cost of operation to
be roughly the same for all.
While Mr. Miraglia uses RealD in several theaters, he chose XpanD's
LCD glasses for the large curved screen in the company's flagship Cinerama
Dome theater on Sunset Boulevard. This is similar to the technology that
will be used by Panasonic, Sony and others as they bring 3-D HDTV to
market next year. Recently, electronics makers set standards for creating
3-D Blu-ray discs and players.
But in order to make the wearing of 3-D glasses as routine as ordering popcorn,
the makers need some help in the design department. Many of the glasses
resemble the "fitover," or wraparound sunglasses favored by senior
citizens in the Sun Belt, a look that is not appealing to young moviegoers.
RealD and XpanD hope that 3-D will soon become a fashion statement.
In addition to its standard movie glasses, RealD is introducing child-size
versions, as well as high-style 3-D specs that people can wear without
embarrassment out in the three-dimensional world as sunglasses or prescription lenses.
Ms. Costeira of XpanD thinks personalized designs that can be used
with 3-D HDTVs and video games could turn into something big. "Stylish,
thin and light, 3-D glasses will become your new iPod," she said.

Nicole Kidman's daily walk in sydney
MOVIE supper star Nicole Kidman takes a Sunday stroll every day of the week.
Dressed for the harsh Aussie Christmas sun, she and hubby Keith
Urban go for a daily walk with 17-month-old daughter Sunday Rose in Sydney.
In her Sunday best off the shoulder summer dress, the 42-year-old star
of hit musical Nine is in great shape thanks to training for her tough
dance routines in the film.
Little Sunday Rose looks pretty cool too, considering temperatures can
hit 40°C at this time of year.
But mum Nicole will soon be off to the studios again - to star in The
Danish Girl as a post-op transsexual who marries Gwyneth Paltrow.
Doesn't sound like Sunday viewing
Rachel McAdams travels in time with ‘Sherlock Holmes’
Fresh from the romance-fantasy hit “The Time Traveler’s Wife,
” Rachel McAdams now literally goes to the past in Warner Bros.’
Victorian era-set action-adventure “Sherlock Holmes.” McAdams
portrays Irene Adler, the only woman ever to have bested
Holmes and who has maintained a tempestuous relationship with the detective.
Directed by Guy Ritchie and produced by Joel Silver, “Sherlock
Holmes” stars Robert Downey Jr. in the title role, Jude Law as
Watson and Mark Strong as the villain Blackwood.
In the following interview, McAdams articulates her thoughts on
“Sherlock Holmes” and why she agreed to do the film.
Q: Can you talk a little bit about Irene Adler, Sherlock’s love interest?
A: Well, Irene is really fun because she’s totally a kind
of woman for the late 1800s. She’s very independent. She’s
very active. She kind of lives in the underworld. There’s
only one story where Irene is introduced, “Scandal in Bohemia,”
and it’s a really fun story between her and Sherlock. She happens
to beat Sherlock at his own game, and it’s the first time a woman has ever done that.
So we developed this kind of strange love affair, (laughs)
a very unique love affair. We just kind of played on that,
but we’re very competitive with one another and we’re trying
to outsmart each other all the time, and yet trying to have
this odd, normal relationship, which is nearly impossible. It’s fun.
Q: What’s it like playing games with Robert Downey Jr.?
A: I really think that Robert is the modern day superhero.
I mean, you should see him work. He’s so committed and so ripped. (Laughs).
Q: Robert said it’s really embarrassing that you always kick
his ass, and that Irene Adler just lays out Sherlock seemingly at will…
A: That’s Guy Richie’s fault, because like every three scenes,
he’d go, “How about you kick him in the nuts? (Laughs) But we
haven’t done that for at least 10 days.
Q: How much did you use Arthur Conan Doyle’s books as reference
for your character and for the film as a whole?
A: I combed the 10 pages that I was in (laughs) over and over.
I read it backwards and upside-down. Yeah. I mean it’s the “Scandal
in Bohemia” story, so I relied heavily on that. And then I
just played around with it from there – I had her in the circus,
and I had an adopted brother that died fighting for his revenge.
You build all these little things in your head so that it’s all
really urgent and dire. But I spent a lot of time with Arthur Conan Doyle’s Irene.
Q: Did you have a lot of fun doing this? Can you talk about the
costumes and how that worked within your character?
A: Yeah, Irene Adler is a really fun character to play, because
she’s quite different from a lot of women at that time. She’s
really her own boss. She’s a real free spirit. And she’s a woman
of the night and of the underworld. So she’s very acrobatic and
she has traveled all over the world. So, there’s a lot to play there.
And then the costumes – I mean, I’m such a girly-girl. So, it was
like a paper doll. I was in heaven just being dressed from the
head down. And the costumes are incredible – I mean, real-life
corsets with the bones and totally cinched in. I would try to
push my belly out in the morning when they would come and strap
me in. I mean, it really was like out of “Gone With the Wind”
and I’m holding onto the trailer door and trying to eke out just
a little bit of space so I can speak properly. But they managed
to squeeze me in everyday. They’d try to make me laugh, and on the
laugh, they’d yank. (Laughs) But it was so much fun to be that
authentic, to be really dropped right into the period. It was great.
(Opening soon across the Philippines, “Sherlock Holmes” is
distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.)

advice for car insurance
car insurance is very important for very car owner.
There are several ways to get cheap car insurance rates.
First, after looking over current insurance policies decide what
you feel must not be compromised and what can be altered.
Then check with several different insurance agencies.
Be sure to use the same limits, deductions and coverage
with each company. This will give you a well-rounded
look at which company may
offer insurance at the lowest price available to you
Then there are things that can be changed. Depending on
your state's insurance requirements adjustments may be made
to various payouts. For example, you may set the limit to a lower
amount which is payable for personal injury. If your
automobile is paid for you may discontinue full coverage
and opt to carry only liability and uninsured motorist.
Deductibles set at higher rates will yield lower monthly rates.
However, be careful when making adjustments to deductibles as
they need to be set at the highest amount possible, but still
be reachable in case you are involved in an accident.
If you no longer have teenagers or young adults living in your
household you may choose an option that many do not know is available.
Drivers under 25 can be excluded from driving your car. Most insurance
companies offer lower rates if they are assured younger drivers will
not be driving an automobile they are insuring. However, if you choose
this option, you must make sure younger drivers do not drive the insured vehicle.
If it is possible, pay the entire premium all at one time. Most companies
charge small fees when you pay the premium on a month by month basis.
The simplest way to save on auto insurance is to drive safely. If you can
remain ticket free rates usually decrease. Nothing speaks as loudly to an
insurance company as a clean driving record.

By comparing one program with another and carefully checking

Likewise, you must ask if the student loan consolidation interest
rates are low enough and can help you in your quest to pay all your
financial responsibility. You might never know if there are rules
and contract clauses that are actually not favorable to your interest.
It is also helpful to use an online student loan debt consolidation

be kept well and maintained up to the time that the student debt
consolidation loans are finally settled; such are evidences that
you are done with the loan, and thus will prevent
and future hassles or problems.

School loan consolidation
If you have fallen behind on your school loans,
you are facing higher interest rates and penalties.

this precisely is the position that you are in. One of the
primary and initial resources that you will want to consider
making use of when it comes to developing your own set of
options when it comes to a student loan consolidation is
the Internet and World Wide Web. As with so many other things
in this day and age, the Net is becoming a reliable and valuable
resource when it comes to obtaining information pertaining to
what is available to you in regard to school loan consolidation options.
There are a variety of lenders that can aid and assist you with
a debt consolidation loan as you go about the task of finding
a loan through which you can consolidate your student loan debt.
You can obtain assistance from these lenders both in the real world
and on the Net. When it comes to lenders that might be able to assist
you with student loan consolidation, you will want to ishop around.
In the end, there can be some pretty significant differences in the
services that these different lenders provide.
Moreover, there can be some large differences in the interest rates
charges by different types of lenders that have involved themselves
in the school loan consolidation market. Different debt consolidation
loan lenders will offer different lending programs and you are best
served by taking the extra time to make certain you identify a debt
consolidation loan package that will best meet your needs and objectives.
