TINSEL TOWN

Monica’s autobiography


Monica Bedi is working hard on her autobiography which she wants the world to read. “I am really working hard on it. It will be completed in a few months now,” she says. Monica says that the book will be a true account. “It will be 100 per cent true. I am not going to hide anything. I want people to know everything about me and my life. I am not ashamed of anything in my life,” she says.

Mika rocks again


Mika makes his acting debut with Suniel Shetty’s film “Loot” as well as the Surendra Bhatia produced sequel of “Tom Dick and Harry”, called “Tom Dick and Harry Rock Again”. The film is being produced by Shabbir Boxwala and Suniel Shetty and they are pretty pleased with the music director-turned-actor. “Mika is brilliant, as he is a natural. Suniel asked him to act in the film and he agreed and here we are,” says Boxwala.

Goldie locks


Goldie Behl’s second film “Drona”, starring Abhishek Bachchan, released on October 2, and the director gladly attributes his inspiration to comic books. “Indian and foreign comics have been the source of inspiration for the story of the film. Stories from Dark Knight, Panchatantra and Amar Chitra Katha brought ‘Drona’ into shape,” he admits. Ask him about directing his beautiful wife Sonali Bendre and he says, “Ask her. I would love to direct her provided she agrees to it.”

‘Aankhen’ sequel


Pahlaj Nihalani is all set to get into film production again. Nihalani wants to make a sequel to his old super duper hit from the 1990s — “Aankhen” — featuring Govinda, Kader Khan and Raj Babbar in double roles apart from Chunky and a monkey. “Yes, I will be looking into production, but my sons will now supervise the filmmaking aspect. We are looking at doing a sequel to ‘Aankhen’ among other films,” explains Nihalani.

Looking for love


One of the actresses from Madhur Bhandarkar’s Page 3 and a reality show regular, Sandhya Mridul is looking for love. “There is nobody good! No worthy guys only. The good ones are married and I don’t want to be the other woman. Trust me. I am not the kind of person who will hide my affairs hat. So the day it happens, you’ll all know. But as for now, nobody,” says the anchor of “Ek Khiladi Ek Hasina”.
