Betsy Gay, known for her roles in The Little Rascals franchise, passed away at the age of 96. Gay has reportedly made more than 40 on-screen appearances during her short-lived acting career. However, she later pursued a career in Western music after discovering her talent for yodeling. Her child actress career ended when she turned 13.

Gay was one of the few remaining cast members of Little Rascals, formerly known as Our Gang. Some of the major actors of the franchise, including Carl Switzer, Eugene Jackson, Ernie Morrison, Dickie Moore, Darla Hood, and Jack Davis had passed away.

Keiko O’Brien is one of Star Trek’s more underrated characters and has proven it in some top episodes!

Played by Rosalind Chao, Keiko O’Brien started as a minor character, the love interest for transporter chief Miles O’Brien (Colm Meaney) on Star Trek: The Next Generation. When O’Brien joined Deep Space Nine, Keiko, by now his wife, joined him. At first just popping up in brief scenes, Keiko got some nice spotlights helping O’Brien.

Many of her episodes are more about her supporting O’Brien during his many tribulations over DS9. Now and then, Keiko got more of a spotlight. She was part of one of the weirder Star Trek plot turns when she became pregnant, but an accident meant Major Kira had to carry the baby to term.

So, for those who do enjoy Keiko, here’s a look at her best showcases in Star Trek...

Star Trek is all about Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations, but most fans will argue that the best of all the series is The Next Generation. Many of them will die on that hill. I am here to make the case for Deep Space Nine. To me, it is the darkest, most-risk-taking, most thought-provoking show.

Allow me to state my case.

The Next Generation launched with a killer pilot, but seasons one and two more or less lurched along, with slow, talky episodes and not much character development. Sure, there were standout episodes but early on, there were too few to support the premise that Tng was great from the start. I found the sets gorgeous and sleek, but also sterile and too brightly lit.

The show found its footing in season three and gave us several terrific episodes each season, none more than in season six, when we got the “Chain of Command” two-parter,...

The very first "Our Gang" short film, "One Terrible Day," was released on September 10, 1922, kicking off a long, long, long cinematic tradition that has continued for nearly a century. Producer Hal Roach first created "Our Gang" as an antidote to children's entertainment of the era, which tended to be magical and fantastical. He wanted to depict kids as they were, complete with their misunderstandings of adult language, innocent concerns, and petty rivalries. All told, there were 220 "Our Gang" shorts released from 1922 to 1944, and the films featured a rotating bevy of young actors.

While "One Terrible Day" was the first film released, the third film, called "Our Gang," was the first one filmed. Roach distributed the shorts through Pathé Exchange from 1922 to 1927, but then shifted over to MGM through to 1936. The studios each distributed over a dozen shorts per year, and...

David Tristan Birkin portrayed a young Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) in Star Trek: The Next Generation two years after he had played Picard's nephew, Ren. Birkin has been acting since 1989, but he currently works as an artist and writer, as well as a Senior Lecturer in Photography at London College of Communication. Much of Birkin's photography centers on war, and his work has been exhibited around the world. He also co-founded Visible Justice, a research hub at the University of the Arts London that celebrates the combination of art with social justice.

In one of his first acting jobs, David Birkin portrayed Ren Picard in Star Trek: The Next Generation season 4, episode 2, "Family," which sees Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) visit his brother on Earth. A couple of years later, Birkin popped up in Tng season 6, episode 7, "Rascals," as Captain Picard himself, after a transporter accident transformed him into a child.

The 1994 film The Little Rascals, directed by Penelope Spheeris, is a beloved comedy movie with accurately-aged children. The movie follows a group of anti-girl youngsters who enter a soapbox car rally, but the world turns upside down when one of the members develops a crush on a girl that distracts the group from the competition, ultimately leading the bullies (Butch and Woim) to win the prize car. The Little Rascals is a fun story that touches upon the greatness of friendship and the loyalty that comes with childhood bonds.

One debatable topic in the entertainment industry is when actors play roles that are much younger than their current age, causing a disruption of continuity. In The Little Rascals' original series and the movie, the characters are all children, so all the actors are children as well, but their ages are merely assumed in the film and not necessarily talked about much.

In 2009, "Star Trek" did something it had never done before: it selected an actor other than William Shatner to play the role of James T. Kirk. Luckily, Trekkies didn't cry foul and seemed intrigued at the idea that the younger, hotter Chris Pine would be stepping in. J.J. Abrams' 2009 feature film, to remind readers, rebooted the franchise's timeline, taking place when Kirk and his compatriots were younger and more impulsive. Every part was recast and the actors selected were all exemplary choices. Abrams' film was also more violent and action-packed than "Star Trek" had been before, leading to debates among hardcore fans as to whether or not it represented "Star Trek" creator Gene Roddenberry's peaceful vision of the future. (It doesn't.)

What the 2009 "Star Trek" proved, though, was that fans and audiences alike are perfectly willing to accept a new actor in a classic role. Of all the...

Captain Picard shouting “Shut up, Wesley” in the season 1 Star Trek: The Next Generation episode “Datalore” has gone down in history as one of the most famous lines in the series. Now the hate for Wesley Crusher, played by Wil Wheaton, has always been overblown but even people who like Wesley have to admit, this line is hilarious.

But if things had gone a little differently in the history of Star Trek, Picard may have shouted “shut up, Wesley” for more than just speaking out of turn on the bridge. In fact, he might have gotten to actually say, “shut up about your dubs v. subs opinions, Wesley” because Wesley almost had a poster of anime girls in his quarters. Yes, an actual room on the Enterprise-d was almost adorned with an anime poster. Specifically of the characters Kei and Yuri from the ‘80s anime classic, Dirty Pair.

For those not in the know,...

From director Christopher Bickel, the upcoming underground horror movie Pater Noster and the Mission of Light has unleashed an official trailer ahead of a Fall 2024 release.

While we wait for an exact release date, watch the Nsfw Trailer below.

The team previews, “Pater Noster and the Mission of Light is the brainchild of the adventurous underground director whose previously acclaimed works The Theta Girl (2017) and Bad Girls (2022) have sent shockwaves through the underground film community. With an acclaimed track record of unsettling and thought-provoking films, Bickel is poised to take audiences on a nightmarish lysergic hellride that will linger long after the credits roll.”

The film tells the story of Max, a young record store clerk who stumbles upon a rare vinyl LP and is drawn into the world of a 1970s hippie commune. An invitation to the remnants of the outlandish cult and their unholy spawn leads to grave...

Warsaw-based sales agency New Europe Film Sales has teamed up with Spade, the production arm of the French genre label The Jokers, and leading German distribution company Plaion Pictures to create Cherry, a development fund for edgy films with crossover potential.

The partners declined to reveal any figures but emphasised Cherry was a development rather than production fund

The three companies previously worked together on Valdimar Jóhannsson’s folk horror hit Lamb, and will now tighten their collaboration and enter projects at an earlier stage.

Cherry will focus on finding edgy, auteur -driven projects with breakout possibilites. The fund will...

DS9 enhanced characters from Tng, notably the nuanced Ferengi development, bringing in original stars like O'Brien and Worf. Keiko O'Brien's character evolved from Tng's wife and mother to a more active role in DS9, facing complex villains. After the Dominion War, Keiko and O'Brien settled on Earth for a happy ending, showcasing her growth throughout DS9.

Chief O'Brien (Colm Meaney) wasn't the only Star Trek: The Next Generation character to become a more important figure in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. DS9 made many improvements on characters and species first introduced in Tng, most notably the more nuanced development of the Ferengi as an alien species. Many Tng stars also joined the cast of Star Trek: DS9 on either a regular or recurring basis from Colm Meaney and Michael Dorn as O'Brien and Worf to recurring stars like Robert O'Reilly as Chancellor Gowron or Rosalind Chao as Keiko O'Brien.

Ajay Devgn’s Score Card Of Box Office Clashes. (Photo Credit – Instagram/IMDb)

Ajay Devgn might be coronated as the King of clashes. The actor, who has been enjoying good word of mouth with his latest release, Shaitaan, is gearing up for a huge clash with Akshay Kumar on Eid with his film Maidaan, where he will take on Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. While the battle seems to be very interesting, this will not be the first time Ajay will lock horns with another superstar.

Recently, he opened up about the clash and mentioned that he wishes for both films to do well. In fact, last year, Gadar 2 and Omg 2’s clash proved that two good films can survive. In fact, Ajay’s clashing history also proves the same.

In the last 15 years, the actor has faced a lot of clashes, and the results have been surprising. While he definitely leads the scorecard,...

Alexander Rozhenko, son of Lt. Worf, had a human name because he was raised among humans. The clash between Worf's Klingon heritage and human upbringing caused many problems for him in Star Trek, which is why he wanted a different path for his son. Alexander took on the surname Rozhenko from Worf's adoptive human parents and eventually reconciled with his father and forged his own path.

There's a perfectly good reason why Alexander Rozhenko (Brian Bonsall), the son of Star Trek: The Next Generation's Lt. Worf (Michael Dorn) has a human name and not a Klingon one. Alexander was introduced in the Tng episode "Reunion", and appeared in eight episodes of Tng and two episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Worf and Alexander's relationship was strained, as the youngster didn't match up to his father's idealized image of a Klingon Warrior. The boy's human name likely exacerbated the...

France’s César Academy has unveiled its annual Revelations list showcasing 32 emerging acting talents making their mark in the French-speaking cinema world.

The 16 selected actresses include Suzy Bemba for her performance year in Catherine Corsini’s Homecoming. Bemba was also seen in Venice Golden Lion winner Poor Things this year.

The selection also features Rebecca Marder for Corsica-set thriller Grand Expectations; Garance Marillier, for bio-pic Marinette about French female soccer pioneer Marinette Pichon, and Park Ji-min for her award-winning performance in Return To Seoul.

The actor list includes Milo Machado Graner, who plays the visually impaired son in Justine Triet’s Anatomy of a Fall, Marc Zinga’s for his performance in Belgium’s Oscar entry Omen and Samuel Kircher for Catherine Breillat’s taboo-breaking drama Last Summer. His brother Paul Kircher is also in the selection for The Animal Kingdom.

The talents were selected by a committee of...

There’s something ethereal about Weston Razooli’s Toronto Midnight Madness closer, Riddle of Fire. It’s whimsical, but in a rough-hewn sort of way that puts it somewhere in the aesthetic neighborhood of Avalon Fast’s 2022 Slamdance discovery, Honeycomb. Both films exist in a world parallel to ours, but not unfamiliar or unrecognizable. While Honeycomb chooses a darker direction when compared to Riddle of Fire’s Little Rascals-esque childish escapades, they both occupy a world in which adults exist, but more as impediments to adventure instead of figures of authority. Razooli’s film exudes joy from every delicate 16mm frame, making it the perfect gateway for those weirdo young children looking for representation in a world of high gloss influencers and YouTube celebs. Right from the jump, Riddle of...

There was no escaping “Red Rooms” at Fantasia.

Awarded the Cheval Noir Award for best feature at the 27th edition of the fest, Pascal Plante’s film also took honors for screenplay and Dominique Plante’s haunting score, as well as an outstanding performance award for Juliette Gariépy.

“The ultimate effect a film can achieve is to implant a significant and lasting emotional memory. ‘Red Rooms’ masterfully accomplished that goal,” said jurors David Hewlett, Brenda Lieberman, Jourdain Searles, Virginie Sélavy and Gary Sherman.

“With incredible skill and artistry, without resorting to gore or violence, this film delivers not only an extremely disturbing and frightening experience but introduces you to characters and situations you may never forget.”

Produced by Nemesis Films, it takes on the trial of a man accused of murdering teenage girls and selling videos of his crimes online. But Plante wanted to focus on women who follow him.

Kangana Ranaut has shared a throwback video, in which she is seen talking about her films ‘Rascal’ and ‘Double Dhamaal’. The actress said that she has never made any wrong decisions ever.

Kangana took to Instagram stories, where she shared an old video from her fan page talking about working in ‘Rascals’ and ‘Double Dhamaal’ in which she played a supporting role.

She is heard saying: “Life mein kabhi na kabhi har koi ek wrong decision leta hai, I did too. Kuch log kehte hai ki woh wrong decisions hai par mein nahi maanti. Log kehte hai ki tumhe Rascals jaisi film, Double Dhamaal jaisi film nahi karni chahiye thi… you deserve better.”

“Ha, lekin jab mere option koi kaam nahi bachi thi toh maine kisi kaam ko chota nahi samjha.(Yes, but, I had no options then so I did not consider any work small).”

Warning: Spoilers for Star Trek: Picard Season 3, Episode 5 - "Imposters"Commander Ro Laren (Michelle Forbes) makes a surprise return in Star Trek: Picard season 3, episode 5, "Imposters," to wrap up the former Bajoran freedom fighter's story and set Picard on course for a perilous second half of season 3. Ro was one of the most popular recurring characters in Star Trek: The Next Generation and her exit at the end of season 7 remained an unanswered question for 29 years.

In Star Trek: Picard season 3, episode 5, the USS Titan-a is licking its wounds after escaping the Ryton Nebula and Captain Vadic (Amanda Plummer). However, Captain Liam Shaw (Todd Stashwick) contacted Starfleet Command to force Admiral Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Captain Will Riker (Jonathan Frakes) to answer for putting the Titan in danger. In a big surprise, Starfleet Intelligence sent Commander Ro Laren to the Titan, flanked by two security officers from the USS Intrepid.

"The Sopranos" cast are all New Jersey icons now, but only one of them was before the series premiered. That was Steven Van Zandt, aka "Little Steven," of the E Street Band. Van Zandt is one of the band's guitarists, alongside Patti Scialfa, Nils Lofgren, and of course the Boss himself Bruce Springsteen. During their hiatus in the '90s, Van Zandt found a new gig on TV even though he had never acted before.

In 1997, Van Zandt gave a speech introducing The Rascals before they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. "The Sopranos" creator David Chase saw this routine and contacted Van Zandt about appearing on his show. Van Zandt had previously conceived of the character Silvio Dante, a former hitman turned club owner. So, they added the character to Tony Soprano's crew. Thanks to budget concerns, the luxurious '50s-style establishment that Van...

Running for 178 episodes over seven years, "Star Trek: The Next Generation" deservedly picked up plenty of awards on its ongoing mission, and it's not difficult to pick out episodes that truly stood out as exemplary. There were some absolute stinkers, too like the lazy budget-saving clip show "Shades of Gray," and "Code of Honor" and "Up the Long Ladder," which form a double-bill of offensive cultural insensitivity.

However, there are those stories that often get overlooked, brushed under the space carpet in favor of award-winning episodes — stories that still hold up today but didn't make a particular impact on release. This article is a celebration of the "Next Generation" stories that flew under the radar yet are more than worthy of a rewatch.

To be fair, any episode in which a character delivers the line, "I believe you will also de-evolve into an earlier form of primate — possibly similar to...

Former child star Jane Withers died on Saturday evening in Burbank, California, surrounded by her loved ones. She was 95.

The Atlanta native began a career in show business as a young child thanks to her mother’s determination to have one child in show business. Even her name was picked specifically so that “even with a long last name like Withers, it would fit on a marquee,” according to a statement from her daughter Kendall Errair.

“My mother was such a special lady, Errair said. “She lit up a room with her laughter, but she especially radiated joy and thankfulness when talking about the career she so loved and how lucky she was.”

No official cause of death has been revealed.

By the time Withers was 2, she was enrolled in tap dancing classes and learning to sing. Her career officially kicked off a year later after winning a local contest called Dixie’s Dainty Dewdrop,...

Brandon "Bug" Hall-Barnett found himself in a legal situation this past weekend. E! News can confirm the Little Rascals star was arrested near a Weatherford, Texas hotel after police responded to a call for a status check and a possible overdose poisoning.  According to the Weatherford Police Department's report obtained by E! News, Brandon was placed under arrest for possession for use to inhale or ingest a volatile chemical.  He was transported to Parker County Jail where he was booked for procedure. Brandon's rep had no comment on the arrest when contacted by E! News Tuesday morning. Weatherford Police also told TMZ that when they arrived at Brandon's location, they...

Celebrated author, humorist and The New York Times columnist Russell Baker died Jan. 21 in his home in Leesburg, Va. He was 93.

In addition to his celebrated and much-lauded newspaper columns, Baker hosted PBS’ Masterpiece Theatre beginning in 1993, succeeding Alistair Cooke, and stayed in the spot until 2004, becoming one of public television’s most familiar presences.

According to the New York Times, his son Allen Baker said that he died of complications from fall. Baker was born August 14, 1925 in Morrisonville, Va. He graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 1947. From there, he went on to become a prominent writer. He is best known for his irreverent Times column titled “Observer” which leaned into politics as well as other facets of culture. The column also ran in hundreds of newspapers for 36 years. He received his first Pulitzer Prize for his column in 1979 and then received a second for his best-selling autobiography Growing Up...

The head-turning moment on Leon Thomas’ debut Ep Genesis comes during “Blessing Interlude.” The drummer tees up a loping, unfussy beat, and the guitarist adds an inquisitive phrase, a lick that hangs and bends in mid-air. Thomas sings prettily, trying to coax a prospective partner into returning his interest; a thin coating of backing vocals, just enough, slides through the background; the whole thing ends in less than two minutes — far too soon.

Thomas knows his stuff: He’s only 25, but as a member of the production duo the Rascals,...

After a long span of seven years, Sanjay Dutt is returning to production with the remake of the 2010 Telugu hit, Prasthanam. The actor will also star in the film in the role of the lead protagonist along with Ali Fazal as his son and Amyra Dastur as Ali’s love interest. Deva Katta, who was also the director of the original movie will be directing this film as well. He has made certain changes in the script with the perspective of catering the film to a pan-India audience. The name of the movie is retained with a small change in the spelling now known as ‘Prasthaanam’. It is a political drama that is scheduled to go on floors in the first week of June in Mumbai.

Previously, Sanjay Dutt has collaborated with Sanjay Gupta on the action-thriller ‘Zinda’ (2006) as production-presenter. He has been the associate producer on Gupta’s Shootout at Lokhandwala...

President Barack Obama’s call to action to stem the tide of gun violence has particular relevance to Hollywood. While there are industry conservatives who disagree with the president’s call for increased background checks and vetting measures, and liberals who will feel the president hasn’t gone far enough, there is also a long trail of industry insiders and their loved ones lost to gun violence. I have had the grim task of reporting many of these over the last quarter-century, and when I sat down and contemplated the carnage in the wake of the president’s appeal Monday, I was taken aback at how long the list actually is.

In 1989, when 21-year-old My Sister Sam star Rebecca Schaeffer was gunned down in her doorway by a deranged fan, the Screen Actors Guild spearheaded a campaign to make it more difficult for stalkers to obtain the home addresses of celebrities.

It seems that with the release of Ajay Devgn's Drishyam nearing, Milan Luthria has started off with the casting of the actor's next film in full swing. Two days ago, we had reported that Shruti Haasan will be a leading lady in Baadshaho and now yet another actress has been signed to play the second female lead. Lisa Haydon of Queen and The Shaukeens fame will now play the other heroine in the film. While Shruti has been paired opposite Ajay Devgn for the first time, Lisa and Ajay had a few scenes together when she did a cameo in the Kangna Ranaut, Sanjay Dutt starrer Rascals. It is being said that the reason behind roping in Lisa, was to add certain amount of tadka in the film and her bohemian and sexy image impressed the filmmaker. Produced by Milan Luthria and Bhushan Kumar, Baadshaho is slated to release...

Giving out duds at Box-office is not harmful but what is really demeaning is being part of unworthy, embarrassing movies. Though we are not making any perception about the caliber and potential of an actor like Ajay Devgn, there are few flicks which the superstar would also want disown like us or he might always regret of. While we take a look at the disasters he readily (and repeatedly) did, we also hope Ajay steers clear of it in future.

Action Jackson: With the actor putting on his dancing shoes, everyone deemed it to be an image changeover for Ajay Devgn and the most-anticipated spectacle of the year. On the contrary filmmaker Prabhu Dheva and Ajay's combination was shunned by all.

Son Of Sardar:It seems Ajay didn't really think before signing up this film. Looking at this choice we believe the ambition of ruling box-office has replaced doing performance-driven...

Mumbai, March 13: Basking in the terrific response to her performance in "Queen", model-turned-actress Lisa Haydon says the success of "Queen" has helped her to enjoy her stay in filmdom.

Directed by Vikas Bahl, the film stars Kangana Ranaut in the lead role along with Rajkummar Rao and Lisa.

"Kangana and I have spoken about our karmic connection. We both did a film called 'Rascals' two years ago and we both felt like fish out of water. The film was an agonizing experience for both of us. And now we're both feeling a sense of triumph and euphoria after Queen. It's amazing," said Lisa, 27.

Lisa, who was also.

Model turned actress Lisa Haydon, who appeared in a couple of movies in Bollywood, feels that Bollywood is a difficult place for models as people have preconceived notions about acting skills of models. “I think establishing yourself as an actor is very difficult thing to do for a model because people have prejudices against models acting. I don't really take them personally but I think it is difficult for anyone to make a mark in this business”, said Lisa. She made her debut in 2010 with ‘Aisha’ and then appeared in ‘Rascals’ along with Sanjay Dutt, Kangana Ranaut and Ajay Devgn. Her upcoming movie is ‘Santa Banta’ which i...

Now that Chashme Baddoor is a success, let the fact be told. While David Dhawan has brought himself back in form more than half a decade after the success of Partner (the interim period saw back to back downers in the form of Do Knot Disturb and Rascals), he also had his elder son Rohit Dhawan for company once the film moved into post production.Since Rohit's Desi Boyz had already released by the time the principal shoot of Chashme Baddoor was through, he decided to join his...

The tall and sexy babe Lisa Haydon, who starred in films like Aisha and Rascals, has got engaged to Karan Bhojwani. Karan is the son of popular Page 3 socialites Suresh and Devika Bhojwani.

New Delhi, Oct 30: Model-turned-actress Lisa Haydon, who was seen in "Aisha", wants to play a strong headed girl on screen because she can relate to such a character.

"I would like to play girls that have brave souls and character and something that is raw. I would like to work in real cinema because I kind of relate to that kind of role better," Lisa told Ians.

"The roles that I am looking for are de-glam ones," she added

Last seen in David Dhawan's "Rascals", she debuted with the 2010 release "Aisha",.

Released on September 18th, we're a little bit behind the eight ball on "The End Of Watch" soundtrack. However, thanks to LoudWire, we've come across an additional extra musical tidbit which is arguably more interesting than the original release. While the soundtrack disc itself features an original score composed by David Sardy ("Zombieland," "21"), a classic track from Public Enemy ("Harder Than You Think")  and cuts by the Latin Rascals and The Delfonics, the iTunes release features an extra original new song from Queens of The Stone Age Frontman Josh Homme.  Titled, "Nobody To Love" and also featuring Sardy, the cut is apparently heard in the film's final credits (and you can listen to it below) and was released in low-key form on iTunes only. As you likely already know, "End Of Watch" was directed by David Ayer and stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Michael Pena, Anna...

For the first time, Kajol, spoke about her husband’s upcoming release ‘Son Of Sardar’.

Avoiding questions on the Diwali clash with her good friend Shahrukh Khan’s film, Kajol said “I haven’t seen the film yet, but I have seen bits of it. It is looking fabulous. The trailer was good, but the film is even better.”

Despite flops like Tezz and Rascals, the success of ‘Bol Bachchan’ has only helped build hype around ‘Son of Sardar’. The film stars Ajay Devgan, Sanjay Dutt and Sonakshi Sinha.

Just before the success of Bol Bachchan, detractors had already started pulling down Ajay Devgn from the top line of stars because his last two releases, Rascals and Tezz, had met with disastrous fates. This was quite similar to the treatment meted out to his Suhaag and Khakee co-star, Akshay Kumar, who was going through a very bad phase until Housefull 2 and Rowdy Rathore came along and propelled him in to the top slot. However, now there is a race to the top with both...

Mumbai, June 18: Bollywood actor Arjun Rampal, who is busy shooting for Vashu Bhagnani's "Ajab Gazabb Love", says he will head to Bali for a vacation soon.

"Filming in Indore, for 'Ajab Gazabb Love'. Few more days, then vacation time for me. It will be Bali this year, never been. Looking fOrward to it," tweeted Arjun.

Last seen in "Rascals", Arjun has been busy with the shooting of Madhur Bhandarkar's "Heroine", which has Kareena Kapoor in the lead.

Bangalore, June 1: Sanjay Dutt manager Dharam Oberoi under the firing line of Ramu with Rgv alleging that he and Sanjay Dutt forced him to kick Kangana Raut out of 'Department', is now under damage control mode. Dharam was under pressure with even Sanjay Dutt's friends lashing out at his high handedness and is now under quick damage control mode. Buzz is he dashed to make amends with Kangana Raut, who had borne the brunt of his fury during the making of Rascals

On Wednesday, Ranaut was rather surprised to see Oberoi at Mehboob Studios, where.

That Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn are thick buddies is known to one and all. Ajay starred in Sanjay's home production Rascals while Sanjay too has been seen in Ajay's home productions like All The Best and the forthcoming Son Of Sardaar. Now taking this friendship ahead, Sanjay Dutt has acquired the remake rights of Telugu super-hit Badri and plans to make a Hindi remake of the film with Ajay Devgn in the lead. Sanju apparently feels Ajay would be apt for the role which was originally essayed by Pawan Kalyan. And even though the film will be made under Sanjay Dutt Productions, Sanju Baba will be giving Ajay a free hand in deciding the cast, director etc. Moreover, Sanju Baba has also said that he would like to have Ajay in all the films made under his banner. Looks like Dutt wants to make amends for the fiasco called Rascals.

Hollywood can't be taken for granted anymore. Ajay Devgn realised it hard way with his Tezz being challenged by The Avengers over the week gone by. Irony of the situation is that his next release Bol Bachchan has an even mightier competition, what with The Amazing Spider-Man releasing alongside.

"Bol Bachchan arrives on July 6 and The Amazing Spider-Man three days earlier to bring on the July 4 celebrations. It can't get bigger than this. Spiderman is a worldwide phenomenon and needless to say, it is the biggest international franchise in India as well. When films like Avatar, Harry Potter, 2012, Mission Impossible and now even The Avengers can create such a huge impact on the Indian box office, imagine the euphoria that The Amazing Spider-Man would create when it releases", comments an observer.

Those in the know-how of Bol Bachchan strength aren't really overtly worried with competition from their Western counterpart and...

Seems like the flip-flop around Kangna's role in movies has become a trend. Even though those around her claim that she plays a bit part in Tezz and she too is keeping mum around the so called issue related to her disappearance from the film's promotional plan, the makers insist that none of that is true. In fact they are going all out to ensure that she gets due credit for the film and there is no bad blood towards her as was the case in her last release Rascals.

"It is really surprising that she has been dragged into a controversy like this when there is neither any smoke nor any fire", says a close associate of the actress, "She is all there for the movie and by no means does she have a small role in the film. She is as integral to the film as she was...

Kangna Ranaut and Ajay Devgn were good friends until things went horribly wrong between them during the shoot of 'Rascals'. While there are speculations galore about what happened between the two stars, the result is that Kangna was deliberatly kept out of 'Rascals' promotions. It seems the bad blood between them continued even during the filming of their upcoming movie 'Tezz'.

Reports say that Ajay apparently kept a safe distance from the actress as soon as he learnt that Kangna was part of the film directed by Priyadarshan. Ajay had even expressed his displeasure over t ...

He is one of the funniest actors we have in Bollywood who has time and again impressed us with his comic timing in films like Aankhen, Apna Sapna Money Money, De Dana Dan, Rascals and Housefull. He is none other than Chunky Pandey.

If industry trade statistics are to be believed, for every single good film that is made, there are 10 other bad ones that release week after week. For anyone familiar with the Razzies concept of Hollywood, the ‘Ghanta Awards’ (‘ghanta’ being the slang for ‘rubbish’) is its desi version to celebrate and recognize the worst that Bollywood offers in terms of films, actors, technicians among some other categories.

In its second year, the awards function was held over the weekend to a packed house. Those who could not attend had the option of watching its online live stream (something that none of the bigger awards have been able to achieve yet). While invites were sent out to all the nominees, Sonam Kapoor was the lone celeb attendee, went sportingly on the stage to collect her award confessing “Thank you so much! I finally won an award!”.

Keeping Sonam company in the audience was photographer Atul Kasbekar,...

Barring Tanu Weds Manu, which also stays on to be the biggest success ever for Kangana Ranaut and Double Dhamaal which was basically an all boys show, 2011 was pretty much a forgettable year for her. Whether it was the biggie Game or a film which (as per own confession) was done for monetary reasons, none of them did wonders at the box office. Rascals was the final nail in the coffin and the controversies that emerged out of it were ugly enough to force her into oblivion. "Th...

He may have gone all violent, gory and brutal in Agneepath as the antagonist. However Sanjay Dutt is now all set to get into the other side of law with his next biggie - Department. For audience too it would be a new Dutt in motion as he hasn't played cop for ages. Since his comedies like Rascals, Chatur Singh Two Star and No Problem hardly enticed them enough, they are gearing up to see what Dutt has to offer now while donning a 'khakhi'. Says an insider, "Everyone is...

Our leading ladies and item girls will be nowhere near half as attractive without the talented singers that voice their musical numbers. What’s more, while our cinematic experiences with our on-screen goddesses have a time limit, our playback goddesses are always with us in iPods, tablets, computers, radios and more. This year Bollyspice salutes the 10 female playback singers who astounded us with their vocals throughout the year.

10. Neha Bhasin

Ms, Bhasin (of ‘Viva!’ and ‘Kuch Khaas’ (Fashion) fame) epitomised the image of a Punjabi rock chick and commanded a nation to rock and roll with her in ‘Dhunki’ (Mere Brother Ki Dulhan).While Katrina Kaif may/may not have done justice to her vocalisations, Neha sure did make a place for herself in our hearts and on this list.

9. Nandani Srikar

Ms. Srikar successfully vocalised a classical indian/rock fusion with ‘Bhare Naina’ (Ra.One) this year and proved that...

2011, was a year of many highs and several lows for the Indian film industry. There was drama, catfights, box office clashes, chartbusting songs, 100 crore+ blockbusters, scandal, women centric films actually doing well, hook ups and break ups amongst other things.

To break away from the clichéd countdowns that appear at the end of each year, we at Bollyspice decided to compile a list of the Top 10 entertainers of 2011. The list isn’t just a countdown of movies, it’s a list of people, rumours, music, wannabe stars and starlets that made news and made us chuckle – both intentionally and unintentionally! Read on…

10. The Srk-Priyanka-Shahid merry go round (Rumour)

The ‘are-they-aren’t-they together’ status of their relationship left gossip mongers in a tizzy and provided much fodder for daily glossies. Naturally, both Sasha and PC denied it till they went blue, but when income tax officials raided Priyanka’s house in January,...
