SALMAN KHAN'S NEW GIRL FRIEND?

The new woman in Salman Khan’s life in an exclusive interview…


Mahek Chahal: I like Salman, he is a darling, but we are not dating each other


By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network



Industry buzz has it that the heart throb of millions of women all over the world Salman Khan has a new woman in his life. Apparently if the gossips are to believed Salman has been aggressively promoting Mahek after he met her at an international stage show tour and the two became friends. Rumours have been doing the rounds that Mahek and Salman have been having a rollicking time and some even suggested a roll in the hay. Some website mentioned that Salman and Mahek were closeted in a vanity van for about two hours and some unit members were quoted as saying that the two were seen getting really cozy with each other.

So we decided to check things out. When, we spoke to Mahek she denied it all. Speaking exclusively to this journalist Mahek said, “I have been getting calls left, right and centre. You are the first journalist I have spoken to since morning. This is all crap. I have known Salman for the last ten years and we are good friends. I wonder why this issue is being raked up now.”

Mahek insisted that Salman and Katrina are really happy together. “As far as I know, Salman has a girlfriend and they are really very happy with each other,” said Mahek. When we reminded her about an apparent and rift between the two love birds, she asserted that Salman and Katrina at still together. “Every relationship has its ups and downs but that doesn’t mean that they have split. I really like Salman, he is a darling and is very, very nice and sweet to me. He has always helped me so I wonder why the press is talking about it today. But we are not having an affair,” she quipped.

When we prodded further, a blushing Mahek said that Salman was a sweetheart. “He is a very nice man at heart. I wonder why the media targets him,” she said. It was apparent that Mahek has a soft corner for Salman and vice versa. Mahek made no attempt to hide the fact that the feeling was mutual. “Well he is such a nice guy, who wouldn’t have a soft corner for him. Even you will like him when you get to know him as a friend. He goes really out of his way to help his friends, he is down-to-earth,” she pleaded. Yes Mahek we know that Salman is really a nice guy and is one of the best friends one could ever have, but how come all the emotion and rush of blood.

Is Salman “using” Mahek to get even with long-time girl friend Katrina Kaif who seems to have got busy these days and seems to have very little time for Salman. “No, No. Salman will never use someone,” insists Mahek, stating that Salman and Katrina are very much together.

“I am not dating Salman. He is a dear, dear friend and one of the nicest guys I have ever known,” she says as a parting shot. Well time will tell Mahek and we hope you do well in all your future projects.

Mahek was first seen in ‘Nayee Padosan’ and did an item number in Chameli. After the tour Salman and she became “really good friends” and Mahek got an offer to play a role in the Salman-starrer Wanted Dead And Alive (remake of theTelugu hit Pokkiri ). She also got a meaty role in his home production titled Main Aur Mrs Khanna.

SHERLYN CHOPRA’S SECOND BUTT SURGERY

Sherlyn Chopra gets her butt remodeled to J Lo's by hi tech surgery. Goes under the surgeon's knife for the second time for correctional surgery...


By Frank Franklyn - Futuristic Media Network

It was reported earlier that Outrageous babe Sherlyn Chopra had undergone "butt surgery" to make her derriere look bigger and plumper like J Lo's. However, the operation was not entirely successful. According to Dr John Bernard from California who was the architect of the operation, "Sherlyn began exercising and working out too soon. We had recommended a rest period of three weeks. However, Sherlyn was in a hurry to start work on her new music video titled 'Dard' and began her dance practise and rehearsals way too soon. The newly injected fat which was sucked out of her thighs didn't get time to settle down into the Gluteus which are the muscles of the butt region. As a result the shape and contours of Sherlyn derriere got distorted from what was originally planned and intended and hence the need for another surgery."


Sherlyn's Media Manager Flynn Remedios stated that the shooting of her video 'Dard' has been postponed by approximately two weeks to enable Sherlyn to undergo the correctional surgery.


When we confronted Sherlyn with news of her first butt surgery in February, she quipped, "I would be lying if I said no. My natural derriere was not big enough as per my standards, and I wanted to augment it to make it look plumper. The world could see it very soon in my second video titled Dard. I hope it's a perfect gift for all my lovers in India and abroad."


Elaborating further, Sherlyn's Media Manager who was present throughout the surgery said that Sherlyn had under gone butt Surgery to make her butt look bigger and rounder like J Lo for her new video Dard. Her butt was contoured and remodeled specially for this music video. This is probably the first time that a Bollywood personality has gone on record to talk about a BJ (pun intended) or Butt Job.

While boob jobs, nose jobs, tummy jobs are very common in Bollywood,this is the first time that a butt is being made bigger. Normally butts are made smaller.

Bollywood stars may have gone in for butt re shaping and re engineering to make theirs firmer or smaller, but Sherlyn likes every thing big and has made no bones about it has gone out of her way to go through very demanding surgery to make her derriere bigger.


According to Dr Hemant Kumar of KIMS Hospital at Hyderabad, "the Gluteus are part of the pelvic and bum muscle group and are responsible for giving each bum an individual shape. The contours are also decided by the fat and water content in the fat cells that are attached to the Gluteus muscles of the butt region. Sherlyn Chopra's surgery was done by a team of specialist surgeons led by Dr John Bernard who specially flew down from California.

This team has performed hundreds of such similar operations on various Hollywood personalities, he added. While it could not be confirmed both Britney Spears and J Lo have had similar operations and surgery to uplift their derriere. It is rumoured that even Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek have had their backsides surgically contoured.

For the first surgery, Sherlyn had to undergo a series of operations and was in surgery for a total of about 240 hours. For the following week she was under complete bed rest and was suspended in the air from 'hangers'. However, after the entire ordeal is over including the correctional surgery she will have one of the most prized, exotic and curvaceous butts in all of Bollywood. It will be comparable to some of the best 'back sides' in the rest of the world. The operation will cost Sherlyn Chopra upwards of Rs 25 lakh though the exact figure is not known.Sherlyn's operation is a prelude to her next video for her album Outrageous and is titled Dard. The first video is still on air and was produced by ace adman and film maker Pralhad Kakkar. The second video will be far more explosive that the first one – but only if the censor board lets us all see it.

SHERLYN CHOPRA'S NATIONAL INTEGRATION SONG

Sherlyn Chopra composes special national integration song for Raj, Balasaheb, Lallu and Nitish…

By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network

Outrageous Bollywood bombshell Sherlyn Chopra has composed a special song for the sparring political leaders, in different parts of the country that urges them to forget their differences and concentrate on the economic development of the nation, she announced at a special Press Meet on Saturday at the Vie Lounge, at Juhu in suburban Mumbai.

Since the war of words broke out between political leaders, Raj Thackeray of the MNS, Balasaheb Thackeray of the Shiv Sena on one side and Amar Singh, Nitesh Kumar and Lallu Prasad Yadav on the other, many Bollywood personalities like Nana Patekar, SRK, Aamir Khan, Suneil Shetty, etc have voiced their opinion, sentiment and support for and against the politicians and their cause.

However, the queen of internet downloads, inspired by Black Eyed Peas front man Will.i.am’s inspirational song - for US Presidential candidate Barrack Obama - “Yes we Can” has penned a verse on her own. Will.i.am's “Yes we Can”, registered over 10 million hits on You Tube in a matter of a few weeks and Sherlyn hopes that her track too which is “greatly inspired by her friend Will.i.am” whom she met with recently at the Global Mobile Awards in Barcelona will have reasonable success. “It’s like our very own Hum Honge Kamiyaab” but in English and has a hip hop feel to it,” says Sherlyn who recited the song for the media on Saturday. The final version of the music is yet to be done, she said.

The lyrics go something like: “It doesn’t matter if we are dark or fair, it doesn’t matter if we call it pooja or prayer; It doesn’t matter if we have different opinions, it doesn’t matter if we have different dominions; It doesn’t matter if we belong to Bihar or Maharashtra, it doesn’t matter if we belong to Chennai or Andhra; We can all still be one, Yes we can, Yes we can; We can be enemies with none, Yes we can. We can be ONE INDIA, no matter who we are, no matter where we are, Yes we can, Yes we can!

She is working on the music with DJ Akbar Sami and it will ready for release in the next few days, said actress and singer Sherlyn Chopra.

Bombshell Sherlyn Chopra mistaken for a hooker - Arrested in Barcelona

Roughians call her a Paki prostitute and tried to molest her


By Flynn Remedios - Futuristic Media Network

Bollywood bombshell Sherlyn Chopra who was representing Bollywood at the Global Mobile World awards ceremony in Barcelona was technically arrested and released after a couple of hours when she was mistaken for a hooker on an expressway in Barcelona in the wee hours of the morning of the 12th Feb.

The story goes thus: Sherlyn was staying at the Hilton and wanted to have some fresh air. She loved the wide, clear expressways and Boulevards in Barcelona and walked out of her hotel at around midnight.

Sherlyn was wearing a mini skirt and a tight top with a denim jacket and went on walking into the clean, crisp air without realizing that she was walking into a 'not-so-good locality' of Barcelona.

After an hour of aimless jay walking, Sherlyn realized that she was lost. She also realized that she was not in the right place of town when some rough characters began stalking her and passing lewd comments. "I didn't realize that some rough looking characters had begun following me. It's only when they came too close for comfort and tried to touch me that I realized that I was in deep trouble and was lost in the middle of the night. The rowdies called me a Paki prostitute and a coloured bitch," says Sherlyn. Fortunately, she was whisked away from the spot by a police van only to find herself in police custody as she couldn't speak a word of Spanish and wasn't carrying any id proof or documentation with her when she went for her walk.

A spokesperson for the internet content company who had sponsored Sherlyn's trip admitted that there was some trouble. According to a director of the company who spoke to this journalist on condition of anonymity, "Sherlyn was a victim of some mistaken identity in Barcelona and was mistaken for an illegal immigrant since she was not carrying any documentation with her and couldn't speak a word of Spanish. Her phone too was not working. So she was taken to the local police station where she was allowed to make a call and once her identity was confirmed she was immediately released."

Her stylist and make up man Ojhas who had accompanied her to Barcelona also confirmed that such an incident took place. "I am right now in Africa, but I would like to confirm that such an incident did take place," confirmed Ojhas via SMS.

Explaining the story, Sherlyn says. "I had lost my way when I when for a walk. After walking for about half hour, I found myself being followed by some tough looking characters. Since I was in Barcelona and couldn't speak Spanish and didn't know the way back to my hotel, I requested them to help me find my way back, the people there began to take advantage of my helplessness and started troubling me. They made fun of me and one of them tried to touch me. Others abused me using racial slurs and called me a prostitute. Though I had the roaming facility on my Vodafone cell phone, the outgoing was not working. I couldn't even make a call to my hotel. That was when a police van came by and the cops began interrogating me. They took me for an illegal immigrant and insisted that I accompany them to the police station. I kept pleading with them in English and tried to tell them that I was representing my country for an international event. However I had to go to the local police station where I called my hotel and my colleagues who then confirmed my status. The red faced cops then let me go with an apology. This incident has left a sad taste about Barcelona. Though I am not traumatized, I shudder to think of what could have happened had the cops not to have landed up there at that time.

However, Sherlyn is very upset that no action was taken by the Barcelonian cops against the rowdies who tried to molest her and used racial language against her.

Sherlyn's album and music video was showcased at the World Mobile Congress and received a standing ovation. She also met with Hollywood legend and Indecent Proposal star Robert Redford and Grammy award wining rapper Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas. who congratulated her for her Outrageous album. Both of them have expressed a strong desire to work with her and have even offered her different projects.

Sherlyn Chopra files criminal complaint against blackmailer

By a Futuristic Media Network Correspondent


Bollywood bombshell and actress Sherlyn Chopra has filed a police complaint against some unknown persons who have been harassing her for the last 7-8 months with the Crime Brach and the cyber crime cell of the Mumbai Police.

According to the complaint filed on behalf of Sherlyn Chopra, by her business and media managers Bollywood Brands, Sherlyn has been receiving threatening and vulgar calls, messages, emails and instant messages (over the internet). In her complaint she has alleged that an event manager from a well-known event management firm, known for organizing “strip shows” in Dubai has been threatening her to either join his group or face dire consequences. “He threatened to put up morphed and digitally altered nude images of mine on the internet if I didn’t accept his overtures and demands. He had offered to pay me Rs Ten Lakh per ‘performance’. I first ignored him, but then he began fulfilling his threats by putting up my digitally altered and semi nude images,” Sherlyn claimed.

Outrageous Sherlyn Chopra had recently represented Bollywood at the Global Mobile Awards in Barcelona where she met Hollywood legend and Indecent Proposal star Robert Redford and Grammy award winning lead rapper Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas. Both of them were very impressed with her music video Outrageous and invited her to “collaborate” with them on future projects.

Flynn Remedios, Sherlyn Chopra’s Media Manager and CEO of Bollywood Brands said that when Sherlyn did not succumb to his demands and avoided his calls, he began calling and messaging her from different nos. When she just refused to answer such calls, he digitally altered her images taken at the recent PETA Press Conference and posted them on message boards and websites. “He had even put up her cell phone no and photographs on some escort websites abroad,” said Remedios.

The caller/email sender had claimed that he was very well connected to several politicians and has big business men for his clients. He claims to own an event management firm called Masti Events located in Dubai and claims that he organizes shows in Dubai and in the European and US regions. He also claimed that he has many other well-known actresses as his clients who perform “private strip shows for him”, said Remedios.

Sherlyn has alleged that she was harassed, mentally tortured and threatened by a group of persons who claim to have contacts with various organized crime syndicates operating from overseas. She has submitted clinching and crucial evidence to the police along with her complaint.

SHERLYN CHOPRA BANNED - OPEN LETTER TO PRINT MEDIA

AN OPEN LETTER TO PRINT JOURNOS IN INDIA



Dear friends,

It is with great pride and a sense of privilege and of course with great humility that I take this opportunity to write to you thus:

For the last two-odd months I have been BLATANTLY PLUGGING (in the words of some of my former colleagues and friends at the venerable and honourable Times of India) Sherlyn Chopra. Some of my stories and articles have been described as "works of fiction" by a couple of detractors. While I do not wish to comment on my "press releases", I want to take this opportunity to bring the following to your notice.

I have been "blatantly plugging" Sherlyn Chopra because I believe in her. She has tremendous potential and given the right opportunity could do wonders. She is knowledgeable, well-read and intelligent. not to forget has a kick-ass figure and is a bundle of dynamite. Unfortunately it's only her bikini pics or controversies that make headlines. Her achievements are shoved under the carpet.

Sherlyn Chopra recently was in Barcelona as the Face of Bollywood. She has been covered by various international television channels and on websites like Hollywood Reporter, Billboard Magazine, Forbes Magazine, Bnet TV, etc.

Sherlyn met up and hobnobbed with the likes of Robert Redford and Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas. She gave away an award to Yahoo Inc for the "Best Infotainment Portal of the Year". Both Redford and Will.i.am were were greatly impressed by her work and congratulated her and even showed keen interest in working with her.

While not all this coverage is easily available online, I am including a few links. Sherlyn's name has been mentioned alongside stalwarts like Robert Redford, Isabella Rossellini and Will.i.am in the international media.

Sherlyn's video Outrageous was played and showcased during the prestigious Global Mobile Awards ceremony. You check this out at www.globalmobileawards.com.

http://www.mid-day.com/web/guest/news/business/article?_EXT_5_articleId=983148&_EXT_5_groupId=14

However, it pains me that the Indian media and particularly the entertainment media and print in particular has largely ignored this "achievement". A search on google will show that none of the mainline print publications have covered this event and particularly Sherlyn Chopra.

(While saying so, I also want to thank those who have believed in Sherlyn Chopra and have given her the coverage that was due to her. I don't want to mention names of individuals and publications, and websites but a BIG THANK YOU and GOD BLESS TO THOSE WHO DID IT.)

It is definitely news-worthy that an Indian actress who is working very hard - and let me mention at this stage does not have a Godfather because she is independent and strong-willed and will not succumb to the diktats of our big daddies in the industry - has had her work showcased before the international media at an august gathering of international celebs and business persons. Her work was also appreciated and she was publicly congratulated.

It pains me that the entertainment print media in Mumbai can write about XYZ actress having A or B or C number of shoes in her closet or PQR starlet learning bellydance or run two consecutive articles on a starlet having a long conversation in a disco with Salman Rushdie, (yes Rushdie makes news I agree) but the same publication tells me that Sherlyn Chopra is banned by their editor and that Sherlyn Chopra in Barcelona meeting a Robert Redford or a Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas and being congratulated by them is not news worthy. The same editor refuses to even answer my calls in spite of hundreds of attempts. Then I am told that only controversy stories sell, so when I tell them that Sherlyn Chopra was denied a visa by the German consulate in Mumbai for no fault of her own, they tell me again that Sherlyn is "banned".

I would request the editor of this publication (you know whom I am referring to) to kindly write to me in confidence as to why this partiality. I don't understand how editors (who are paid employees at the end of the day) can enforce such "personal bans" on individuals who have been covered by the international media. And if such a ban or prerogative exists, the individual "banned" has a right to know why she or he is "banned".

Another editor tells me that the public do not want to read about Sherlyn Chopra's rendezvous with Robert Redford or Will.i.am but want to read about X, or Y, or Z's shoes and dogs and cats. I must mention that many other editors tell me that Sherlyn Chopra's pics are the most viewed and downloaded online and she is the "Queen of downloads".


Well, who decides what the people want to read? Aren't we giving a few individuals too much power in a democratic system? Aren't we not being fair and transparent to others who may not be so "blessed" so as to be in the good books of certain "people in power"?

One of the first things I was taught as a journalist was not to allow personal prejudices influence my coverage or reportage of a particular incident or subject. What has Sherlyn Chopra done or not done to be "banned". May be she doesn't send "muuaahs" and "love u" SMS messages to some journos or editors? I would really appreciate if my learned and knowledgeable journalist friends would enlighten me.


Or is it because I don't throw booze parties for select journos or don't send out gift vouchers? Or is it that certain journos owe their allegiance to certain film PROs and will not run stories sent out by a rival PRO? At this stage, I must admit that some print journos do not have a few seconds to listen to what I have to say!!!


As Indians, we must take pride in the fact that an Indian actress was honoured in such fashion on an international fora. In my opinion this news does deserve media coverage.

I am enclosing some photographs of Sherlyn Chopra with Robert Redford and Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas and I hope you will give ample coverage to Indian achievers who make India proud on global platforms.

Finally, Sherlyn Chopra's good work will go on. She is launching her own NGO to help the under-privileged and unempowered women. She is doing a lot of work on the film front, which I will leave for her to talk about. We will not be cowed down by "bans" by certain prejudiced and partial individuals.

If I have offended anyone by this out-burst or have been unfair to any individual, I pray for forgiveness.


Sincerely,

Flynn Remedios

SHERLYN TO DO HOT KANNADA ITEM NO.

Watch out Tollywood, here comes Bollywood bombshell Sherlyn Chopra

By Flynn Remedios - Futuristic Media Network

Bollywood bombshell and Outrageous bikini babe Sherlyn Chopra is going to set the Kannada and southern film industry on fire. Other established southern sirens had better watch out, for Sherlyn is determined to leave no stone unturned to give them a run for their money. She has bagged two big projects - one an item song and another a lead role in a big budget Tamil film. Sherlyn says she "dares all the other girls in Tollywood to bare all and prove who has the hottest bikini bod." "I am willing to go nude, if the script and project demands it. I have the most fantastic body and I am proud of it," she said.

"When I do something I give it my hundred per cent. I will do what ever it takes to be the best and make an impression in Tollywood," says a fiery Sherlyn when asked how she would compete with the existing lot. Sherlyn is known for her uncanny ability to look sexy in anything she wears, whether it's a skirt or jeans or her trade mark G-strings. According to reliable sources, Sherlyn Chopra will be seen gyrating to a steaming hot item number in the Kannada movie titled Madehsha starring Shivraj Kumar – son of Dr Raj Kumar. The lead heroine is not yet finalized, but sources said that Sherlyn was the most likely choice for the lead.

Madeshsha is directed by Ravi Srivatsa and is produced by Govardhan Murthy. Sherlyn is expected to shoot the red hot item number in Bangalore during the second or third week of March this year. The item song will be choreographed by Imran Sardhariya and is expected to be one of the most expensive productions ever made in the Kannada film industry. Many other Bollywood actresses including Malaika Arora Khan and Sameera Reddy were approached for this item number, but Sherlyn Chopra won hands down for her Outrageous and wild, devil-may-dare image, curvaceous body and great dancing feet. Sherlyn is a fantastic dancer and could put J Lo, Britney, the Pussy Cat Dolls and even Shakira to shame. Other Tollywood dancers and actresses would be left far behind if Sherlyn decides to shake her booty in Tollywood. In addition to this project, Sherlyn will also be playing the lead role in a Tamil film. She is tightlipped on this project as her director-producer has asked her not to breathe a word about the project. However, a source close to Sherlyn said the project deals with a real life situation and is a 'drama in real life'.

Sherlyn when contacted refused to deny or confirm the news. "My manager istalking to them, we are discussing certain issues, you can ask him if it'sconfirmed or not," was all that the sex bomb would say. "You can confirmthis news with Bollywood Brands who are negotiating on my behalf."

Insiders say that Sherlyn Chopra is being paid Rs 35 lakh for doing the item song. Apparently, the producer-director duo were so keen on having Sherlyn do the item number that they agreed to pay her the outrageous sum, even though other well-known girls in the industry were quoting only half of Sherlyn's price.

Sherlyn Chopra was also chosen for her J Lo like butt. It may be recalled that recently Sherlyn Chopra had undergone plastic surgery to augment and enlarge her derriere and had her butt re-modeled to look exactly like JLo's. Her music video and album Outrageous was showcased to a standing ovation in Barcelona, Spain at the Global Mobile World Awards. Sherlyn is slated to be working on a couple of Hollywood projects as well with Robert Redford and the Black Eyed Peas. She has promised to tell us about these projects very soon.

Sherlyn said she will “disclose all” at a Press Conference very soon. Sherlyn had one-on-one meetings with lead rapper of Hip Hop and funk band Black Eyed Peas Will.i.am and Robert Redford of the Sundance Institute

Besides Sherlyn Chopra and her music album, two other brands or projects were chosen: south icon Rajnikant's film Sultan – The Warrior and Race was showcased at the same event by the World's biggest mobile content aggregator Hungama.com.

In Barcelona, Sherlyn hob-nobbed with the cellular and digital world's head honchos like our very own Sunil Mittal, Anil Ambani, Azeem Ghosh and Arun Sarin to name a few. Almost every other cellular brand from India had a presence at Barcelona and so did international brands like Verizon (one of the largest operators in the United States), Singapore Tel, Mobi Tel, Telefonica, etc.

Besides these, every other Media brand worth its name was present at the event as were the CEOs of most Fortune 100 companies.


Not just that, Sherlyn was bestowed with the honour of presenting an award at the grand finale of the event – the Global Mobile Awards ceremony to honour some of the biggest telecom players – which was held in the palace of the King of Spain.

Said Anand Jhinghan, senior vice president-International, Hungama Mobile, "We are delighted to have Sherlyn Chopra's video 'Outrageous' featured at the Mobile World Congress at Barcelona.

This event is the biggest international gathering of telecom operators, service providers, mobile content aggregators, handset manufacturers, value added resellers and deals worth millions of dollars are expected to be negotiated and cracked at the venue.

Sherlyn Chopra sends legal notice to website - PETA TO FOLLOW

“its an invasion of my privacy, this photo is taken without my permission or consent," says the Outrageous babe..

By a Futuristic Media Network Correspondent


Outrageous Bollywood actress and most downloaded Bollywood babe Sherlyn Chopra has sent a legal notice to a website www.bollytreat.com through her media managers Bollywood Brands for publishing doctored, manipulated and defamatory images of hers, which the website alleges were taken at the recent PETA Press Conference.


Sherlyn Chopra claims that she never posed for such images and never permitted any photographer to click such photographs of her. She also stated that her media managers who were present throughout the press conference, along with PETA representatives have asserted that Sherlyn could not have even mistakenly been “caught” in the poses as allegedly “shot and published by the website”.


Sherlyn’s notice demands an unconditional public apology from the website for infringing her privacy, causing her grave mental torture, outraging her modesty and breach of trust and copyright. Since Sherlyn Chopra signed on with Bollywood Brands, the copyright of all her photographs are jointly held by Bollywood Brands and herself and permission has to be sought for publishing any images which may have been taken without her knowledge.


Speaking about the issue, Sherlyn said, “Yes I have posed in bikinis but those are with my express permission. I also get paid for those photos by the agencies or websites who buy them. Further, each picture or photograph that goes out is individually approved by me after ensuing that its not vulgar but aesthetic and artistic.”


”This is a question of “invasion of my privacy”. Further the website has doctored and manipulated the photos. At no point in time, even for a split second were my legs in such in position to reveal my innerwear,” asserted the Outrageous babe.

PETA India head, Anuradha Sawhney said that PETA was discussing this issue with their lawyers. "We are outraged at this blatant misuse and manipulation of Sherlyn's photos. At no point did she pose in such a fashion. It is an infringment of Sherlyn's privacy, besides has also shown PETA in a bad light. It is not only defamatory for Sherlyn but for PETA too as Sherlyn is endorsing a PETA campaign.

This incident sparks a new controversy in the Controversy Queen’s life, but also brings to light the blatant violation of the privacy of Bollywood stars who have been illegally shot by hidden cameras or unscrupulous photographers who shoot ‘fluke shots’ and further digitally manipulate them to give them a ‘real feel’ making them vulgar and obscene and in the bargain causing tremendous embarrassment to the concerned actress.

Sherlyn Chopra gives up eating cocks – goes vegetarian for PETA

By a Futuristic Media Network Correspondent

Outrageous babe Sherlyn Chopra lived up to her “outrageous” image when at the recent PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), Press Conference, when queried by some media persons about her culinary preferences, retorted that she had “given up eating cocks”. This ‘straight from the hip’ answer stunned the otherswise aggressive hacks and left them speechless for a few moments.

That was till a smiling Sherlyn explained that since she had come into contact with Anuradha Sawhney of PETA who had shown her the inhuman and pitiable conditions in which poultry farms kept their birds, had decided to stop eating chicken.

Sherlyn later explained to the still-shocked media that she had almost completely cut down on her intake of non-vegetarian food and was trying to completely eliminate it from her regular diet.

Rakhi Sawant v/s Sherlyn Chopra - the catfight

Rakhi Sawant calls Sherlyn Chopra “nangi” - Sherlyn retorts by calling her "pagli"



By Flynn Remedios - Futuristic Media Network



The mother of all wars seems to have just begun. This time it’s Sherlyn Chopra versus Rakhi Sawant. Apparently, when asked by a TV channel about an incident in Delhi, Rakhi allegedly called Sherlyn ‘nangi’ sparking a verbal duel between the two cats.

The story goes like this. At a recent event at Pragati Maidan in Delhi over the weekend, "Outrageous" babe Sherlyn Chopra and Rakhi Sawant were performing one after the other at the same show. Apparently, Sherlyn’s costumes and dance performance was so hot and steamy that at the last minute the show organizers asked Sherlyn to tone down the costumes and prepare a new performance.

At the 11th hour, Sherlyn had to get a new medley cut and purchase costumes from Delhi. An angry Sherlyn later raised a hue and cry when TV reporters asked her about the change. She also suggested that probably some of the other performers jealous of her upstaging them had prevailed upon the organisers to get her to tone down her show. Though Sherlyn did not say it in as many words, the jibe was obviously at Rakhi Sawant who is known to brow beat organisers into canning performances by rival artistes to ensure that she gets the maximum media mileage.

This allegation was widely reported in the local media who asked Rakhi as to why her outfits paled before the defiant Sherlyn. Rakhi is supposed to have given the reporters her usual spiel followed by something like; Sherlyn hardly wears any clothes, so what’s the big fuss about. She also called her “nangi” while answering another question as aired by a particular TV channel.

When Sherlyn heard about this, she retorted angrily that Rakhi was probably inebriated and out of her mind.

PETA ropes in Sherlyn Chopra for "Outrageous" campaign

Outrageous girl Sherlyn Chopra says she'd rather go nude than wear fur

By Flynn Remedios - Futuristic Media Network

The People for Ethical Treatment of Animals or PETA have now roped in Outrageous girl and the most downloaded internet wallpaper babe Sherlyn Chopra for their next ad campaign. The campaign which is to be shot in February by ace lens man Rakesh Shrestha will be their first new ad campaign for this calendar year and will be widely publicized, said PETA officials.

Other Bollywood personalities who have campaigned for PETA include John Abraham, Yana Gupta, Celina, Raveena Tandon, etc. Sherlyn Chopra is the latest to join the bandwagon this year.

Internationally, former Baywatch babe and V.I.P. star Pamela Anderson, Rockstar Pink, Paul McCartney, hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons and Latin pop sensation Patricia Manterola have campaigned for PETA. Sherlyn Chopra is the latest addition to this august international list of celebrities who have lent their support to PETA.

Anuradha Sawhney of PETA India, said, "We have an 'outrageous' theme planned for PETA with Sherlyn Chopra as the lead model. She will be dressed in an outfit like that of Victoria's Secret lingerie or some similar intimate wear in an entire set resembling a bedroom. The setting would be sexy and sensual keeping the 'outrageous' girls image in mind.

The tagline of the ad will be 'Whips and chains may be used in the bedroom but not in the circus'. The entire idea and concept of the ad has been developed in house by PETA. "We are still fine tuning the story board and once ready will shoot with Sherlyn somewhere around mid-February. It will be really wonderful for us if we can have the ace photographer Rakesh Shrestha do that shoot, since he had earlier shot Celina for us," added Anuradha Sawhney.

Sherlyn said, "I had a puppy when I was a kid and also that I am strictly against the use of fur and leather in any form. For me, fake fur is equivalent to real fur. So, fur is a strict no-no for me. I'd rather go nude than wear fur," she retorted.

"One just needs to wait and watch out for the ad. It will simply be a mind-blowing one," stated Anuradha Sawhney.

After Sherlyn Chopra, actress Haifa gets banned from Lokhandwala Gym

By Flynn Remedios – Futurisitic Media Network

It seems it’s the season of bans on actresses. Gym managements have suddenly become sensitive to disturbances and ‘distractions’ caused by the ‘scandalous’ outfits of some of their clientele. Last week “outrageous” girl Sherlyn Chopra was banned from a Lokhandwala Gym for some outfit which according to her was “not at all disturbing”. The sexy, curvaceous Sherlyn was asked to work out at an unearthly hour or change her style of dressing.

This week, well-known South actress Haifa was told to either wear ‘decent’ clothes or find some other place to work out. A vitriolic and fuming Haifa says that all that she wore was a simple tight-fitting top and decent bicycle shorts, which she has worn to several other gyms in the past and even while cycling around Lokhandwala. The management of the premier Gym located at Four Bungalows told Haifa to either change her outfits to something more “appropriate” or find a new gym.

Haifa who has done several movies in the south is known by the name of Ragasiya and is a hot, sexy, wild, bubbly, IT girl. She is Mumbai-based and lives at Lokhandwala. She has only done several music videos for Punjabi, Bhangra and Hip hop albums. She was also the winner of the MTV Item Hunt organized by Pritish Nandy Communications. She has recently signed a big-budget Hindi crossover movie with Bollywood Brands which will go on the floor in mid-March

Speaking about the incident, Haifa says, “I wear my knee-length, skin-tight bicycle shorts and a tube top even while I am cycling each morning. All my basic essentials are fully covered. There is absolutely no cleavage or anything else showing. I don’t understand why they found it indecent. Just because some persons in the gym couldn’t concentrate on their workouts, it doesn’t mean that I am to blame,” said Haifa who spoke to this journalist, vociferously asserting that she has paid about Rs one lakh for an annual membership. “What do they want me to wear, a Sari,” she angrily asks!

Sherlyn Chopra - our very own desi J Lo

By Flynn Remedios - Futuristic Media Network

Outrageous girl Sherlyn Chopra is so besotted with J Lo and her topless cover of her album titled “Rebirth” to such an extent that she went out of her way and insisted on having a similar photograph on her own album.

Sherlyn says that loves J Lo and is smitten by her subtle sexuality.

According to the creative head at T Series, the producers of the album wanted a completely different picture on the cover. However, Sherlyn felt very strongly about having a J Lo-like topless image on her album cover as according to her it really did justice to the album.

A source tells us that Sherlyn argued for hours with the creative team at T series and put forth her views saying that the J Lo-look-alike image would not only fully justify and speak about the theme of the album, but would also push sales of both – audio and cassettes.

Finally the company realized that the Outrageous babe knew how to make an explosive cocktail of commerce, sex and art and gave in to her demands. And what we see on her album cover is the uncanny resemblance to J Lo’s Rebirth..

SHERLYN CHOPRA GYM OUTFIT PIX

THIS WAS THE OUTFIT SHERLYN CHOPRA WORE TO AN UPMARKET GYM AT LOKHANDWALA WHICH CAUSED 'DISTURBANCE' TO THE CLIENTS OF THE GYM AND THE GYM TRAINERS WHO ALL WANTED TO TRAIN SHERLYN CHOPRA CAUSING A ROW AMONG THEMSELVES. THESE PICS ARE (C) SHERLYN CHOPRA

SHERLYN CHOPRA BANNED!!!

Sheryln Chopra banned by Lokhandwala Gym - Hottie to sue Gym for humiliation


By a Futuristic Media Network Correspondent

Outrageous hottie Sherlyn Chopra has been banned from working out in two of Lokhandwala’s prominent gyms. According to the manager of a well-known gym attended by many other Bollywood personalities, Sherlyn had paid for an annual membership and diligently started working out last week.

“She would come to the gym in the morning for her workout, but we had a problem controlling our own trainers who were all too keen on personally training the hottie,” said Amar Chauhan one of the floor managers at an up market gym that also houses a popular coffee shop and watering hole at Lokhandwala in suburban Mumbai.

In her recently released and classily shot Pralhad Kakkar video “Outrageous”, Sherlyn was seen as kick ass, no-nonsense seducer. Unfortunately, the best scenes and frames came under the Censor Board’s scissors who insisted on chopping off the really “cool” part. Sherlyn will be seen in a completely new avatar in her second video Dard which will go on air in mid-March.

One of the women, Sonal, an actress herself, who is also a regular at the particular gym said that Sherlyn was not all to be blamed. “I was only concentrating on my workout. I didn’t even notice that most male and female eyes were on me,” says Sherlyn who was disturbed that the Gym asked her to change her timings for no fault of her own.

The manager admitted that two trainers almost came to blows as both of them wanted to have the privilege of “working on” Sherlyn. Not just the gym staff and the trainers, even the others couldn’t concentrate on their training and workouts. The women would stare at Sherlyn out of sheer jealously for the special attention she got from the trainers and other gym staff, while the men couldn’t take their eyes off her abundant assets which were amply displayed in her skin tight outfits that barely covered anything.

Unfortunately Sherlyn who is “working out” furiously to tone and firm up her butt muscles for her new video titled Dard which is to be shot next month was told that she would either have to come at an unearthly and odd hour which wouldn’t cause a distraction to the others or simply find a new place to work out. She chose the latter option.

A similar episode was repeated a week later at a Gym at Four Bungalows and a dejected Sherlyn decided that working out at home was the best option.

Sherlyn said that she had asked her lawyers to send a legal notice to the Gym concerned for causing her humiliation and mental torture. She also plans to haul them up over the coals for the disruption in her training schedule.

ACTRESS SWAPNA TO FEATURE IN SALSA VIDEO

Mumbaichi garam masala mulgi Swapna is all set to feature in a hot, spicy international Salsa music video. She will be the leading face of the video with a steamy performance that is likely to make Sherlyn Chopra’s Outrageous look really tame and mild.


Swapna Todkar who comes from a very conservative Maharashtrian family though has no qualms about her performance. Says she, “the video story board demands a very ‘in your face’ and ‘bold’ performance and I am prepared for it.”


The shooting for the video is to begin around Jan-end and the tracks have already been worked out. The video – a crossover jugalbandi will also feature international hip-hop and Salsa performers besides the Indian hottie who will showcase her Salsa skills.

WATCH OUT FOR THIS SPUNKY LASS!!!!

SWETAA SINGH INDIA'S LATEST BRILLIANT SUPERMODEL

Swetaa Singh is Mumbai’s Ms Bikini India babe nominee

Aspiring actress and model Swetaa Singh is Mumbai’s answer to Ms Bikini India babe. She was selected from among 250 participants from Mumbai along with Natasha Sikka. Both Swetaa and Natasha have also bagged prime music video contracts from leading music companies as a result of their association with Ms Bikini India and will be seen in hot, sexy, racy music videos in the coming months.

While the names of the music companies were not disclosed as the official announcement will be made after the paper work is done, both Swetaa and Natasha were ecstatic about the announcements.

Swetaa who spoke to us said that she always wanted to be a film actress and Ms Bikini India is probably the best platform an upcoming model can get to showcase her talent and oomph and get noticed. “This is a fantastic opportunity for girls like me. There is nothing wrong in wearing a bikini or a swimsuit as long as it’s done in an artistic and classy fashion for a particular purpose. This is a talent search platform and is like any other beauty pageant. It is not vulgar or demeaning."

Being a model and an actress is also a decent and admirable profession, which many girls aspire. Many girls have to go through the casting couch method. Many girls get exploited by unscrupulous elements on their way to stardom. Ms Bikini India is a professionally organized contest and we are proud to be associated with it and nominated or voted as winners,” said Swetaa.

Swetaa will also be launched in a cross over film next year by a prominent and established production house, the details of which are likely to be announced soon.

I did not sleep with Yuvi, says actress Anjali

Responding to a report in a popular Mumbai tabloid about her so-called affair and relationship with the handsome ladies man and cricketer Yuvraj Singh, well-known model and actress Anjali Pandey said that she did not sleep with Yuvi. Clarifying about what she was quoted as saying in the published article, she said that she meant that “she shared a great working relationship with Yuvraj Singh during their photo shoot and not a physical relationship”. “I was misquoted,” she added.

Some of super model Anjali Pandey’s campaigns include the Seagrams Imperial Blue TVC, the UTV Bindass campaign, a campaign for Kalyan Silks – a very well known brand of silk garments in South India and of course the Hero Honda television commercial with Yuvraj Singh. She has done thousands of print ads and other lesser known television commercials. She is known for her Idea Cellular campaign with the line “Dad can you pick me up”.


“Yuvi and I were shooting for the Hero Honda commercial and during our interaction; Yuvi came across as a perfect gentleman. He was very kind and helpful and even went out of his way to make everyone feel comfortable and at ease. He was very good to me. We bonded very well and became good friends. But I did not go to bed with him, as wrongly alleged in the report,” said an agitated Anjali Pandey.


“I meant that we shared a fantastic working relationship during the shoot and Yuvi was very down-to-earth and helpful. He is very sophisticated and yet friendly and simple. “It is true that we chatted a lot and even flirted with each other, but that does not mean that we were sleeping together,” she explained adding that during that time according to the best of her knowledge, Yuvi was going very strong with actress Kim Sharma.

“I was definitely attracted to him. He is simply so perfect, but I knew that he was seeing another woman and didn’t even try to cross the Lakshman Rekha. Yes if he was single and available at that time, I would have definitely taken a step further,” she stated.

But at that time, there was nothing more between us besides a good friendship. We didn’t have any thing physical to do with each other. After the shoot was over, we packed our bags and unfortunately haven’t been in touch with each other as Yuvi is very busy and I keep traveling all over for my work,” explained Anjali.

5 Star hotel staff taken for a ride by Neetu Chandra

By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network

The sexy and wild Neetu Chandra was in her element last week. While shooting for One, Two, Three at Mud Island – a scenic locale on the outskirts of Mumbai which is as its name suggests a small island along the coastline of Mumbai near suburban Malad,

The place also houses two 5 star luxury hotels, whose names we won’t mention right now, let’s say out of courtesy.

Neetu who plays a Jat cop in the movie was in her ‘full policewalla uniform’ with glares, badges, revolver and all. Along with the sizzling Neetu, were two hawaldars also in full hawaldar uniform with ‘danda’ and whistles. This journalist happened to be around for an ‘interview’ with the actress.

During the shoot, the ever fidgety Neetu decided to have some fun. She ‘summoned’ her constables and decided to ‘check’ the licenses and other ‘permissions’ at the hotel. So she marched up to the hotel, walked into the main reception area and called for the Manager. While the receptionist and the others in the hotel lobby scurried away promptly to call their boss, Neetu and her ‘orderlies’ walked into the posh restaurant adjoining the lobby.

The hotel manager who was told by his colleagues that ‘an ACP has walked in on a surprise check’ came running down only to find out to his chagrin that ‘ACP’ was none other than a beautiful, sexy woman.

Of course, while Neetu was dressed in a policewoman’s uniform, with all her insignias intact, her designer had made sure that ‘some cleavage’ was definitely showing. The poor hotel manager didn’t know what to do. He had probably handled a lot of ‘difficult’ cops in his career as an F&B and Hospitality professional, but here was a ‘new gorgeous ACP in a tight uniform’ – too much for a poor F&B Manager. Unfortunately, for him or for the hotel staff, none of them recognized the actress.

The look of bewilderment on their eyes was too much for Neetu and her team. They quickly ordered some chai ‘and coffee for madam’ to break the ice, while the manager looked on his tongue too frozen to speak. Then madam decided enough was enough. She called for the bill and decided to scoot before she could break out into peals of laughter. However, the manager who had by then found his tongue, wouldn’t let her settle the bill and insisted that she also try some of the delicacies at the hotel.

Knowing how Neetu loves to eat, this was a tough call for even a cop. However, better sense prevailed and she stomped out after giving the manger a piece of her mind. She kept a straight face right through the short distance from the hotel to the sets, but burst out laughing when she reached there. The entire unit was stumped. They didn’t know what had happened and why Neetu had tears of joy in her eyes.

Facebook move will compromise user data – Bollywood better watch out.

By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network

According to news reports popular social networking site Facebook.com has announced a marketing ploy that may bring in revenues for the site, but will greatly compromise user data and individual privacy.

The website will permit search engines like Google to index its user database using keywords and other ‘tags’ and throw up user data when queried through a search engine.

Many Bollywood personalities have their profiles on Facebook and many media professionals like this journalist mention contact details like email ids and even telephone or mobile contact numbers.

The idea being that till now, Facebook or even Orkut details could be accessed only to members and only those ‘certified’ by a user as a ‘friend’ was allowed to access contact data including other personal data like hobbies, etc.

According to technology website Techtree.com the public search function will allow anybody to search for a specific person on Facebook. And this includes people not registered with the social networking Web site.
According to information put out by Facebook, the feature will show a thumbnail of the specific member from his/her profile page, plus links letting others interact with him/her. However for a person to be able to add someone as friend or send a message, he/she has to register with Facebook.


Around a month down the line, the public search feature will allow people to find member profiles -- complete with names, photographs, and other details -- through search engines such as Google, Yahoo!, and MSN.

Despite Facebook's claims to the contrary, privacy advocates are voicing security concerns with respect to the move. They are hugely worried about private data falling into the wrong hands -- and of being used for all the wrong reasons...

Meanwhile, Facebook says the move is driven purely by profit motives and that the information revealed would be minimal, said Techtree.

Besides, the Web site claims that those who want to prevent personal information from being accessed by all-and-sundry on the Web can simply opt out of the feature or change their privacy settings. Either ways, they have one month to do so.

Whatever the case, Facebook is risking the ire of many with its latest move. Considering that just last year, users expressed anger when the Web site introduced a 'news feed' feature that informs everyone on a contact list as to when the user makes changes to his/her profile page.
Bollywood personalities like Shahid Kapoor and a host of other ‘media kinds’ who are avid Facebook fans may have to change their “settings’ or even go underground as their personal email ids and at times phone numbers are likely to become the target of spammers or ‘bots’ – automated search engines that scan the web for ‘programmed information’ like email ids or phone numbers.

Bollywood actresses “paraded” on Orkut

By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network

The popular social networking site Orkut is in the news again. Last month we reported how high class call girls and out of work models and some “aspiring actresses” were using the Orkut Network to solicit customers and even help screen decoys from ‘real’ customers. (Read http://futuristicmedianetwork.blogspot.com/2007/08/call-girls-in-mumbai-using-identity.html and http://futuristicmedianetwork.blogspot.com/2007/08/call-girl-network-in-mumbai-using-orkut.html)

This time we found out that some unscrupulous elements are using Orkut to “sell” Bollywood actresses for “special projects”. While we obviously do not want to mention the actual links or profile ids, a simple search on Orkut will show what we mean. We found dummy profiles of Sameera Reddy, Rakhi Sawant, Celina Jaitley, Tanushree Dutta, Sherlyn Chopra and even Kareena Kapoor and Rani Mukherjee. While some dummy profiles were blatant in their alleged purpose, the others were subtly camouflaged as fan sites or communities.

Most visitors to these fan communities would not notice the subtle “dhanda” being carried online. A closer examination over a period of time would however show that some of these communities were being used to trade doctored porn clips of the actresses mentioned. Even their phone numbers were given out in some cases. We checked out a few phone numbers and about 50 per cent of them turned out to be correct.

A few small-time out-of-work models and actresses were also seen in a similar fashion and their “per night rates” (sic) were also mentioned on their profiles.

Divya Dwivedi nude in a Hollywood film

By Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network

Bollywood bombshell and sex siren Divya Dwivedi will be seen in the buff for a “big- budget, big banner” Hollywood film. So excited is Divya about her forthcoming Hollywood film, that at a recent audition for a ad film at a studio at Versova in suburban Mumbai, Divya got into her element and forgot that she was auditioning for an ad film. She went overboard and the director had to call ‘cut’ and even reprimand the over enthusiastic Divya for forgetting where she was.

Recently Divya was seen in the Lakhan Sinha produced Jahan Jaaeyega Hamen Paaeyega with Govinda and Sakshi Shivanand. She also acted in the Rakesh Sawant-directed Hot Money and was also seen in Kuch Kaha Aapne with Ayub Khan and Mukesh Tiwari. Divya has almost 20 films to her credit though unfortunately none have been box office hits.

Speaking to this journalist, Divya said, “It’s a big project. I have read the script and the script demands the role, so I am willing to do it. It’s an international project and I am the only Indian artiste and actress in the film. Most other actors are American while two other girls are German. I am proud to be chosen for the role, which will put to test all my acting skills.”

When queried about the exact nature of the role, she says that she plays the role of a beautiful, sexy, hot woman who is traditionally married at a very young age and living in the US. Unfortunately, her husband who is an engineer with an oil company gets killed in a tragic accident and her in laws spurn her as the bringer of bad luck and the cause of her husband’s death. So she moves out in search of her own livelihood and then begins a devastating tale that sees her character being tossed from one man to the other, from one relationship to another, where she is used and misused by almost everyone in the glamour and fashion industry.

Finally she learns to make it to the top professionally at least, and realises that her body is her ultimate weapon. She uses her body and her sexuality to the maximum to subjugate and conquer and conquer she does. It’s a dramatic story about the trials and tribulations, but also speaks volumes about the characters' resilience and tenacity. “It’s a very bold role and it’s a challenge to be chosen for such a role, explains Divya.

According to the director of the film who didn’t want to be named as yet, the film will have scenes where Divya is shown nude though in complete darkness. Another has a date rape scene where her character gets raped by her own boyfriend whom she is ‘dating’. And the last scene where she sleeps with an international fashion designer just before the night of an international fashion show to ensure that she is not ‘thrown out’ of the event. However, none of the scenes would be “X-rated” and the film is likely to get an A certificate without any cuts, he explained.
