Bollywood heart-throbs Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor are known to steal hearts with their wit, uncanny sense of humour and of course their good looks. Time and again this duo has outdone their past performance and has left us asking for more.

These Bollywood favourites hosted the prestigious IIFA 2015 and this time it wasn’t just the audience but the organisers too that were left asking for more.

As hosts, Ranveer and Arjun left no stone unturned. The show had everything – dance, humour and camaraderie. It indeed was entertainment at its best.  Right from the preparations that included several hours of brainstorming, numerous rehearsals,a part of the scripting, permissions to the Grand Finale at the glitzy evening where the actors set a whole new benchmark as hosts, IIFA 2015 was a visual treat. It was almost as if Ranveer and Arjun had made up their minds to put up the best show possible and return the love they have received so far from the audience.

It’s time to raise a toast to these wonderful hosts as you tune in to catch their performance at IIFA 2015 this Sunday at 8pm.

Not many know that Sandeepa Dhar ​is an animal lover. Recently during rains lots of street dogs have been hiding to save their lives and starved for hours.

Sandeepa found 5 similar puppies at the basement of her building who were all drenched in rain and were shivering of cold. Sandeepa being an animal lover, took all of them to her place, fed them and took care of them. 

Sandeepa say. "I m a pet lover, and when I saw those puppies shivering in my building basement I was heart broken so I took them home. I think it is everyone responsibility to take care of animals especially in monsoon as you never know if those animals are being fed or no, if they are sick or hungry or just scared."

Not many know but Sandeepa is also an animal activist and does a lot of Social service when it comes to rescuing street dogs. 

"My plan is to start an NGO for street dogs, There are lots of dogs on streets who are limping just because when they are sleeping someone ran their car over their legs. I would want to help them but unfortunately there are not many NGO's. Hence I want to start something that can help those poor and needy animals." concludes Sandeepa Dhar.

‘We Kapoors pay for our own drinks!’ - Rishi Kapoor

Rishi Kapoor may have been in news for his starry attitude at times, even though when it comes to his producers, they swear by his professionalism. But it was while shooting for their film Wedding Pullav when the senior star contrary to his temperamental image pleasantly surprised Ranjan. A source reveals that post the film’s shoot in the evening, the two good friends would walk down to a nearby popular bar for a round of drinks, adding, “As is the unsaid rule in Bollywood, being the producer, naturally when the bill came, Ranjan picked up the tab. However, this did not go down too well with Kapoor, who insisted on paying for his own drinks. In fact, he even paid for Ranjan’s drink!” Talking about it, Ranjan says, “After the shoot, we did go for a round of drinks in the evening. And since I was the producer I picked up the tab. This upset Chintu who insisted on paying his own bill saying, “We Kapoors never drink producers’ scotch. We always pay for our drinks and never use producers’ money for it.” I was naturally surprised, because a producer is assumed to bepaying for everything for a star while on a shoot schedule, but Chintu never ceases to amaze. He’s a dream to work with for any producer. No wonder the Kapoors are known for their large-heartedness!”

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Special Birthday Gift for Ranveer!

             

Ranveer Singh has been giving his all; including an unusual decision to move out of his family home, to perform the historic part of Peshwa Bajirao in ‘Bajirao Mastani’. While the young star is dedicated to this part, his commitment to the film’s director, Sanjay LeelaBhansali, is also unquestionable & honest. As he has stated many a times, “You don’t work with Mr. Bhansali, you collaborate with him to create something special on set.” 

His filmmaker has reciprocated Ranveer’s sincerity and dedication by giving him a special birthday gift. When Ranveer requested Bhansali to give him a four-day break for his birthday, much in advance, the filmmaker has graciously granted him those days off. 

Ranveer, of course, is very thankful for the quick break from sets. Says a source close to the actor, “he will travel out of the city with his family to ring in his birthday. Before he takes time off though he is working round the clock to ensure that the elaborate shoot of this magnum opus doesn’t suffer”. 

The actor, who shares a relationship of admiration and respect with his acclaimed filmmaker, is working hard so that his holiday won’t impact the film’s schedule. During the course of making this film, Ranveer has dealt with a shoulder injury & has given total concentration for one year on this project alone. Clearly, his birthday break is well earned!
