Unwanted Issue in song "Laila O Laila"

The Delhi High Court declined the plea of prominent music composer Anandji Virji Shah for staying the release of tennis star Mahesh Bhupathi`s debut Bollywood movie "Chalo Dilli", starring his wife Lara Dutta, for violating copyright by remixing his popular song "Laila o Laila".

Anandji, who with his brother Kalyanji, had composed music for many films, had approached the court alleging that the filmmaker has violated the copyright by making a remix of "Laila o Laila" from the 1980s film "Qurbani", directed by Feroz Khan.

"Let the film be released on April 29," Justice Manmohan Singh said, issuing notice to the director and producer of the movie and seeking their response by May 12.

Filing a civil suit, Anandji sought an order restraining the filmmakers from issuing any audio CD or DVD with the remix of the song.

He also claimed damages of Rs.1 crore from the EROS International Media, the producer of "Chalo Dilli", contending the filmmakers should have obtained his permission for the remix. He also argued he was entitled to receive royalty for the remix of the song.

"It is shocking to find that the music composition contained in the song `Laila o Laila` in the film Chalo Dilli is slavish and a distorted version," said Anandji.

Mallika Shares her experience with Obama

The actress Mallika Sherawat shares her experience of meeting the US President Obama. The actress was invited for tea with Barack Obama during his campaign stop in Los Angeles on Thursday.

How does she do it! After getting up close and personal with most of Hollywood A listers like Johnny Depp, Salma Hayek, Halle Berry to name a few, the actress met the US President Barack Obama himself!

Post the meeting, the actress described it as, "It was electric! Obama is the bomb."

Now we understand how excited one can get after meeting the US President but calling him a bomb!

Mallika, don't get us wrong but his name sounds a lot like a certain Osama and the term 'bomb' then sounds politically incorrect in that context! Nonetheless we are glad you made it!

Mallika is said to have discussed her stay in LA and spoken about her upcoming film `Politics of Love, Barack' with the President. Surprisingly, Obama even told Mallika to ensure she invites him for the premiere of her film.

Sharmila Tagore is oblivious of her darling daughter’s love

Soha Ali Khan’s beau Kunal Khemu by producing a film for him, mother Sharmila Tagore is completely oblivious of her darling daughter’s love life! Sharmila didn’t even know about Soha’s relationship.

Soha said, “Actually, amma didn`t really know who Kunal Khemu was! She hadn`t seen his work or his films. But she had once come to the sets of ‘99’. At that time, we were shooting a scene where Kunal was only in a pink-coloured bath robe. So, when I told her about me and Kunal, she asked `Who is Kunal Khemu?` Then I explained, `Amma, remember the guy in that pink bath robe that day? It`s him.` She said, `Umm... okay! Strange choice!`”

“So she didn`t really know him, but she`s got to know him and his work now, over the past one-and-a-half years, and the two get along really well now,” chipped in the actress.

When enquired her father’s reaction to her dating Kunal, Soha added, “Oh no no. He knows that I am a grown up and feels that it`s me who has to live with the person I marry, so as long as I am happy, he`s fine. Dad`s very supportive and loving, but he doesn`t really get involved in my personal life beyond a point.

Talking of private life, both Soha and Saif have been honest about their relationships. “No, it`s just that we feel there`s nothing secretive about being in a relationship with someone. Even our parents were very open and vocal about their relationship. That too in an era when a Hindu and a Muslim being together was such a taboo. So I guess, we`ve learnt it from them,” finally said the actress before signing off.

Poonam Says Hot Snap only for Team India

The 19-year-old Poonam Pandey was one of the top eight contestants of Gladrags` model hunt contest last year. The aspiring actress, who has grabbed headlines for stating that she will bare all if Team India wins the World Cup, has been flooded with offers from foreign glossies. But she has rejected them saying she will strip only for the Indian team.

She may or may not get to strip for the Men in Blue, but young model Poonam Pandey has sure got a lot of media attention as well as lucrative offers from international magazines that want her to pose naked.

"So far she is flooded with many offers from India and world wide. Right from Indian reality shows to international magazines. More than that, she got a huge half million dollar offer from an international magazine to pose nude for their cover, but she rejected it as the act to go nude was only meant for team India to get home the World Cup and not to make fame and money. She is on cloud nine as India won the cup," said Poonam`s manager Vipin M.

She also cited "many studies conducted by various universities abroad which confirms and infers that such performances/expectations boost and inspire people to perform better in any field, be it sports or otherwise. Even medical books on psychology and psychiatry confirms this".

The model made a "humble request" to be allowed to "perform in the privacy of the Indian cricket team`s dressing room or any other place of your choosing". She suggested "a foreign land like Paris in France, so that the Laws of India - if a hindrance, shall not apply".

It would act like a "private therapeutic performance with a psychologist`s presence" and "cannot be an offence under any law for the time being in force if the team members have no objection and the BCCI gives the go ahead".

In the letter, she wrote: "..I want India to win the Cricket World Cup 2011 and am willing to go the extra mile to do anything so that India wins the World Cup. I am ready and willing at any place and time of the Indian teams choosing to go in the nude to boost their sporting spirit to perform better.
