Imran Khan in all new exclusive M&B series


Well well well, our cute chocolate boy Imran Khan is all set to be the man of many young girls dreams! Technically, not only through his films but also through books. Just imagine! Sweet Imran is the new hero of the hit, romantic Mills & Boon series.

The production house has got a tie-up with KJo’s firm Dharma Productions only to come up with a series of books on their film I Hate Love Storys. These books are going to be exclusive spin-offs!

Who better than Imran can perfectly fit the M&B bill? Apparently, the publishing house is going to come up with a series of eight books, and the story would be about Imran who doesn’t believe in LOVE. We are glad it’s just in the books though.

Imran has quite a tremendous appeal amongst the younger generation, so to create the perfect hype and excitement for the book, the publishing House has taken the initiative of readers getting to meet Imran at their launch.

The basic idea behind this entire hungama is well put in by Mr. Manish Singh, country manager for Harlequin Mills & Boon India Pvt Ltd. He says that every youth dreams of falling in love and every story of love is filled with joys and anxiety and by symbolizing the idea that unfolds in every youth’s life the book aims to synergise with the movie theme.

With the IHLS as the cover, Imran as the perfect Greek-god and oodles of love and romance..we are sure this series is going to create ripples.

Pakistani Fashion


Pakistani fashion is making waves in the West recently. The reasons are two-fold. Number one, the abolition of quotas on Pakistani textiles has opened America to the treasures of Pakistani fashion. This has enriched both cultures tremendously and encouraged an exchange of talent. The second factor has been the resurgence of modest clothing in recent years. Americans are increasingly finding tight and tiny clothing to be impractical, uncomfortable, and actually uncool. TIME magazine highlighted the emergence of tunic tops for instance.

Pakistani fashion scene is expanding rapidly in all dimensions. For one, the Pakistani fashion model pool is growing and is capturing international attention. The number of Pakistani boutiques and Pakistani fashions magazines, including Visage, Women’s Own, and Rivaaj is a testament to growing fashion world. Elegant salwar kameez and kurtas are in every magazine. Photographers like Deebees, Jimmy, and Ather Shahzed are shooting amazing mag folds. A talent pool of designers such as Hasan Shehryaar, BG, and Nikki n’ Neal has arrived. Akif is a double threat who combines photography skills with makeup artistry and has done the work for Zarmina.

The Pakistani fashion is not without its spice. There is a growing rivalry between Karachi and Lahore models that is worth a talk of its own. The Karachi models have a sense of superiority, given that high Pakistani fashion emerged in their city. They consider the upstarts in Lahore to be crude and garish in their efforts to impress. The Lahoris feel they have arrived and have the egos to boot. Besides, Lahore is the movie capital and the actresses that double as fashion models such as Zara and Iman bring their airs with them. The Karachi talents are Iraj (catwalk queen), Rubab; Suneeta Marshall and ZQ are newer popular faces. The Lahore pool has Vaneeza (the first supermodel), Amina Haq (who starred in a popular “Chicago” themed music video), and recently Mehreen Syed, who has stormed onto the scene and is to do an Indian film.

An interesting footnote about Pakistani fashion must be made regarding Amina Shafat, a top 5 model in Pakistan who has modeled for Zarmina as well. Amina has refused to do any shoots featuring immodest clothing. Despite her boldness, her work assignments have only increased!

Bollywood News

What is Bollywood? Basically, it is India's answer to Hollywood. The movie capital of India, Bollywood is filled with as much lush glamour and as many glitzy stars as Hollywood did back in its blossoming days. The term "Bollywood" is a combination of the words "Bombay" and "Hollywood"-although Bombay is now called Mumbai, the city's Bollywood label has stuck.

Bollywood is definitely the movie making capital of India. However, it is not the only movie making area in the country. The popularity of Bollywood has led to the misconception that all Hindi films are Bollywood movies-in truth, only films produced in Mumbai are true Bollywood.

Bollywood Movies
Bollywood movies tend to be low budget numbers. Scenes from several different movies are sometimes shot at the same time, using the same cast and backgrounds. The films tend to run about three hours in length, with a brief intermission. The movies are mass produced, making India the top movie production area in the world. In fact, India produces about twice as many movies each year as the United States.

Bollywood Style
Bollywood movies are usually very colorful. They're big on visuals and filled with elaborate costumes. Almost every movie contains at least one dancing and singing act, if not several. Musicals are not a special genre for India's movies, but rather, a vital part of every script.

Many Bollywood movies use the same basic storyline, involving love, action, comedy and lots of drama. The most common theme is a tale about some sort of star crossed lovers. The movies stay mostly family friendly, with none of the explicate sexual content often seen in Hollywood releases.

Bollywood Stars
Stars from popular Bollywood movies receive all the same attention, though far less salary, than their Hollywood counterparts. They go to exclusive restaurants, buy clothes from ritzy designers and are hounded by paparazzi. They make sensational headlines and are swarmed by fans where ever they go.
