Shahid Kapoor flying with F-16 aircraft: Indian actor Shahid Kapoor flew an American F-16 fighter aircraft on Saturday at the Aero-India show in Bangalore.

The actor, who plays an Indian Air Force (IAF) officer in dad Pankaj Kapur’s directorial debut Mausam had a thrilling experience of flying the F-16 IN Super Viper by Lockheed Martin, piloted by the American test pilot Paul ‘Bear’ Randall.

It was a 40-minute flight which had its share of turns, loops and tailspins.

“I wanted to get a first-hand experience of flying on a fighter aircraft. Thanks to Lockheed Martin, I have had the privilege of becoming the first actor to fly the F-16. Such an opportunity doesn’t come by as a civilian,” Shahid told the reporters after the flight.

Shahid was clearly overwhelmed by the experience.

“It's a great experience and I learnt how to fly a fighter (plane). Paul (the pilot) gave me lot of tips about flying such an awesome military aircraft and I am thankful to Lockheed Martin,” he said.

Shahid Kapoor & Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka-Shahid both not confirming their love?: Love does make the world go round, among other things. Talks about a torrid affair between Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor are rife, but the duo isn't in denial mode nor are the two confirming that love is in the air.

However, when Priyanka Chopra was at an awards ceremony and was asked to pay tribute to actresses such as Saira Banu, Hema Malini and Madhuri Dixit, she wasn't too excited with the script given to her. So she hurried in a corner and penned down a couplet of her own for each of them.

It is heard that Priyanka is a good singer as well, and of late, has taken to shayaris - works of Rumi and Ghalib in particular. A friend of the actor says that Priyanka in her own time is often found penning poems and shayaris of her own. We wonder how many of these, she has dedicated to beau Shahid Kapoor. After all, love does make the world go round, among other things.

Priyanka, Shahid hide their relationship

Shahid Kapoor & Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor appeared on the talk show, ‘Koffee With Karan’ but they did not reveal their relationship. Karan popped the question to both Priyanka and Shahid but they did not give any convincing answer. They replied very diplomatically.

What sounds more interesting is that the couple arrived and departed separately. Priyanka left on her car and Shahid drove his bike but after going through some distance, Piggy Chops dropped down her car and got into Shahid's bike. The couple left the spot without delay.

An insider reveals, "They share a warm chemistry. They text-messaged each other and reached the venue on time. They indulged in humorous banter with one another and with Karan. At one point, the host asked them point-blank, if they were a real-life couple.

The answer was so non-committal and long-winded that even the seasoned host was left scratching his head."

Sonakshi Sinha will romance with Shahid Kapoor?

Sonakshi Sinha will romance with Shahid Kapoor?: Who will be cast opposite Shahid Kapoor in an upcoming romantic film? The question weighed heavy, but now the search is over; it’s Sonakshi Sinha.

Director Kunal Kohli was a worried man; he had the script ready and had also finalized the hero but couldn’t get a heroine. He was keen to have Priyanka Chopra for the film, par yeh ho na saka, and the hunt was on for an actress opposite Shahid.

Though it was rumoured that Shahid was apprehensive about working with Piggy Chops, Shahid has denied it. While talking to a daily about KK’s film, Shahid said, “I have enjoyed Kunal’s works in the past whether it’s Hum Tum or Fanaa and I’m looking forward to this love story. Whoever he decides to be cast opposite me, I’m okay with it.”

Now Sonakshi Sinha has been finalized for the role; the film’s title is Janam Janam Ka Saath Hai Tumhara Hamara. We hope it’s just the working title because it’s pretty long, and corny, too.

Talking about Sonakshi’s promising career graph, the girl is on a roll, and after the super success of Dabangg she has signed some big projects. She is also in for Shirsh Kunder’s Joker opposite none other than Akshay Kumar.

Looks like everything’s going right for Sonakshi.

Why Deepika Padukone as Heer onto Shahid Kapoor’s laps

Why Deepika Padukone as Heer onto Shahid Kapoor’s laps!: Ex of Kareena Kapoor and the present of Priyanka Chopra chocolate actor Shahid Kapoor has landed himself onto the lap of the leggy bimbo Deepika Padukone. Of course, they are not dating. It’s all for a film’s cause.

Director Sabbir Khan is making the rom com ‘Heer and Ranjha’ and he has roped in the vivacious Deepika Padukone for the role of Heer. Shahid had already been pulled in to do the honours for Ranjha.
Reasons why Deepika has been cast for Heer:

   1. Sabbir was looking for someone who was young and dynamic and Deepika fitted the bill perfectly.

   2. Besides, Deepika is also a tad vulnerable with her share of emotional depth; something that was required for her character.

   3. Sabbir highly rates Deepika and considers her the finest actress of the new generation.

   4. Besides, the pairing of Deepika and Shahid would be the first of such kind and is bound to trigger some interest.

   5. And Deepika is not only a good actress but is also endowed with an unearthly beauty which makes her screen presence a riveting one.

The film, however, is some months away and would only go on floors in April, 2011.

Priyanka-Shahid break up again due to Deepika

The kabhi haan-kabhi naa Shahid-Priyanka prem kahani seems to be off again. It is learnt that this time, it was PC who called for a timeout. An insider denies that it was Shahid's controlling behaviour that drove her away.

Apparently, the real reason she took the drastic decision is Deepika Padukone. The source says, "Pranks heard that while she was in Brazil shooting for Fear Factor, Shaks met Deepika twice and lost her cool.

Mimi (as he calls PC) confronted him. But he refused to say a word on anything related to Dippy. That finally did it." Until they get back together again, then?

Shahid Kapoor and Deepika Padukone as Heer And Ranjha

Shahid Kapoor and Deepika Padukone as Heer And Ranjha: After having cast the teenage heartthrob Shahid Kapoor as the 'Ranjha' in his next film titled Heer And Ranjha, director Sabbir Khan has pulled off a casting coup by roping in Deepika Padukone as 'Heer'.

Sabbir said, "Once I finished scripting, I felt that the Heer's part needed somebody, who is young and dynamic, as it's totally an author-backed role. At the same time, that person should have vulnerability as well as emotional depth. With so much in mind, I just couldn't see anybody beyond Deepika for the role, as I feel that she is one of the finest female actors among the Gen-Next's brigade."

Sabbir also added, "Casting this pair together was due to the fact that, this was one pair, which was everybody's unanimous decision. To have Deepika as Heer and Shahid as Ranjha, the film is nothing short of being fantastic. Everybody is excited to see the pair together!"

Since it's a romantic story being retold, music will play prominence in the film. Talking about the music of Heer And Ranjha, Sabbir reveals, "Music is indeed a very integral part of this film. And I am so very happy to have Pritam on board for it. There are 6 songs in the film. The core of the music will be romance... Music that will depict that it's a love story, at the same time it'll be contemporary. The music of this film will surely have lots of soul with a lot of modernity."

The shooting of Heer And Ranjha will begin in April 2011.

Why Shahid Kapoor won't attend ‘Koffee With Karan’ with Priyanka?

Why Shahid Kapoor won't attend ‘Koffee With Karan’ with Priyanka?: Recently the rumours of Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor’s break-up started doing the rounds again after Shahid refused to come on the ‘Koffee With Karan’ telly show with Priyanka.

The star couple gave credence to link-up stories after they attended a recent Dabangg screening together. Earlier too, the story of Shahid dropping Priyanka secretly at the airport before she left for Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 2 also found its share of takers.

Now a source tells a tabloid that their break-up (again) is just a rumour; the couple is very much together. And there is a reason why Shasha refused to be on Karan Johar’s talk show with PC.

Actually, when he first came to the show a few years ago, it was Kareena Kapoor, his ex-flame, who was by his side, and Shahid still regrets what he said on the TV show. So he is a little cautious and doesn’t want the media to cook further stories about him and Priyanka.

Better be safe than sorry, right Shahid!
