UBD's Bollywood-Bytes 12-Feb-2011

Kareena Kapoor
It has been confirmed that Bebo will be dancing to classic Sridevi songs at an upcoming award show. Apparently Sridevi has stated that Kareena is her favourite actress of the current lot, and that persuaded her to say yes. Kareena's first and last tribute was to her sister Karisma at the 2004 Filmfare Awards.





 
Vidya Balan
The lady is tipped to bag a role in the sequel to last year's 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai' opposite Akshay Kumar. The diva is currently in talks with the film's producers Balaji Telefilms headed by Ekta Kapoor, who are also considering Kareena Kapoor for the same role.






Deepika Padukone
The recently single, or so we heard, diva is all set to follow into Aishwarya Rai's footsteps once again by starring in a movie with the legendary Rajnikanth. The actress was considering the role for a while but we hear that she has signed the dotted line. The film will be on a large scale and a huge budget, and is expected to go on the floors late this year with a mid-2012 release date.





Sonakshi Sinha
Not only has she wiped out every newcomer award at every single show this season, she is replacing actresses in films left right and centre. Recently she was added to the star casts of 'Joker', 'Race 2' and 'Housefull 2', replacing the likes of Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone. But now we hear that she has replaced Katrina once again, except this time in an ad. The soap company Dyna signed up the 23-year old star to their brand and quoted her as saying "I am happy to step into her lovely shoes".




Shilpa Shetty
The 35-year old diva has launched her own brand of healthy eating food in London's Camden town.
"Vegetables are a vital source of vitamins and minerals, but vegetarian doesn't have to mean bland and rubbery food. Indian vegetarian never compromises on flavour and proves that eating healthy can also be tasty." she proclaimed. I might check the food out for myself as she does look super healthy.





Kangana Ranaut
The young diva recently completed a full-on punjabi style dance routine in one day, when in fact it was scheduled for 3. Ultimate choreographing diva Saroj Khan was surprised as Kangana is not known for her dancing abilities. The song was shot with Mika and will also feature Jimmy Shergill and R Madhavan. Kangana's new movie will be released this month. 'Tanu Weds Manu' make sure you check it out.
