Dancing queens
Bollywood diva Hema Malini and daughter Esha Deol have often teamed up to perform on stage, but this time they are all set to enthrall television audiences with their moves. The mother-daughter duo are set to perform together at the grand finale of dance reality show “Dancing Queen” on the entertainment channel Colors.
The two actresses have mostly performed Indian classical dance forms together, but this time they will shake a leg to some Bollywood numbers. The show will be aired in March.

Another psycho drama
After Aamir Khan’s much feted take on dyslexia in “Taare Zameen Par”, Bollywood is putting the spotlight on bipolar disorder, a psychological illness that causes extreme mood swings in a person.
Being made by Prawaal Raman, known for his earlier thriller “Darna Mana Hain”, the film is tentatively titled “Happy Teachers Day”.
“It’s a story tracing the relationship between a professor and his student. Not too much is known about this psychological disorder. And it can go undetected for a lifetime because the mood swings are often taken to be just over-moodiness in an individual,” says Raman.
On parting ways with mentor Ram Gopal Varma, Raman said: “The other day a producer was trying to instigate me into talking against Mr. Varma. I told him if it wasn’t for my tenure at the Factory (Varma’s production house) I wouldn’t be doing the work that I’m doing right now.”
Raman was directing a film called “Zabardast” featuring Nisha Kothari and Karan Nath for Varma when he just upped and left. “After 10 days of shooting ‘Zabardast’ I realised it wasn’t going anywhere. So I told Mr. Varma I didn’t want to direct it. And I left... Whatever happens, happens for the best,” the filmmaker said.

In love with chaat
Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar has become highly conscious of his weight after making “Fashion”, but whenever he visits Delhi, he can’t stop from gorging on street food.
“Whenever I come to Delhi, I forget about eating right and watching my weight. I become shaitaan (naughty) because I can’t miss out on the chaat (street food) at Bengali Market. I just love the golgappas, paapdi chaat and all that. Even while I am speaking about these things, I am wanting to go there,” Bhandarkar said.
Besides Bhandarkar, even actress Sonam Kapoor is a big time fan of Delhi’s street food — something she gorged on while was shooting for her much-hyped film “Delhi-6”.
