Tired of watching Vishal Malhotra play the hero’s best friend over and over again? He was Shahid Kapoor’s sounding-board in Ishq Vishq and Kismat Konnection.

When Boney Kapoor was invited to the ongoing Cairo International Film Festival, it was in the capacity of being a Guest of Honour. However, to his pleasant surprise, he was also bestowed upon a Lifetime Achievement award, something which he didn’t see coming at all. What acted as a cherry on the top, literally so, was the fact that the felicitation happened yesterday, 11th November, which happens to be Boney Kapoor’s birthday.

Sources on the sets of Raavan starring Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai had revealed that director Mani Ratnam had been miffed by Govinda’s late arriving on sets and tantrums about his cameo role of Hanuman.

Kareena said, ‘I am looking forward to doing roles that I connect with. Kurbaan, for instance, has a socio-political theme and is about what is happening in the world today. It is relevant and I connected with it.’

He belongs to a political family and expectedly, keeps himself abreast with the goings-on in the political arena. “I have to keep myself updated. I can’t stay without it,” Ritesh Deshmukh smiles. So why didn’t he ever think of joining politics? “My brother is in it. Also, I strongly feel that there would be a clash of ideologies if two people from the same family dabble in it. I am glad I am in movies,” the talented actor reveals.
