A R Rahman turns 44 today, 'Happy Birthday': India’s twin Oscar winning musical genius A R Rahman turns 44 today. On his birthday, what Rahman is most excited about is not partying but - quite expectedly - work. Yes, the workhorse, who loves to compose music at night, tweeted: “I am very excited about 127 Hours releasing in the UK today and what makes it even more special is that we scored the music here, in London”.
The other reason he’s excited is that he has been nominated for Golden Globe Awards in the Best Original Score category for his music in Danny Boyle’s ‘127 Hours’.
He’s also in the race for an Oscar nomination for his composition ‘If I Rise’ from the same movie.
It’s been 18 years since Rahman first wowed us with his compositions. Like wine, he’s only gotten better with age. Yes, he was criticized for his CWG theme song, which people who were expecting something on the lines of Waka Waka found to be lacking in energy, without themselves having an ear to accept something new. Rahman answered the critics in the best way he can: by a stunning performance at the CWG opening.
Now, the super talented composer is taking up international projects as well, so obviously he’ll be composing selectively for Bollywood and South.
We at ApunKaChoice wish him a Happy Birthday. May he win the Golden Globe and another Oscar this year.
Rahul Bhatt and Aanchal Kumar are in 'Love'? They met on the sets of Bigg Boss 4. There was a lot of speculation around their growing fondness for each other and Rahul's "I'll miss Aanchal the most" statement proved the rumours were true.
But it still needed validation from either one of them. Rahul has finally admitted to this paper that Aanchal and he have been dating for over a month. But after he was evicted from the Bigg Boss House, Rahul realised Aanchal meant much more to him than a fellow reality TV contestant. He decided to confide in her and the rest, as they say, is history.
Says Rahul, "Yes Aanchal and I are seeing each other. We've been dating for a month now. It takes me a long time to open up with people. I have very few friends and after what I've gone through (the Headley episode) I'm even more wary of new contacts."
But Rahul hit it off with Aanchal from Day one on Bigg Boss 4. "She is honest, trustworthy and a lovely person. I'm looking at a long-term relationship."
Recently, Aanchal was in Goa to celebrate New Year's Eve and strangely, Rahul wasn't around. Why?
Says Rahul shyly, "This year, I was with my close group of friends in Pune. But next year, I promise I'll be in Goa with Aanchal." Aanchal however is far more diplomatic about divulging information on her relationship with Rahul. "Rahul is a friend."

Kiran Rao to direct Aamir Khan to do a lovemaking scene: Was it difficult for the first-time director Kiran Rao to film her husband Aamir Khan doing lovemaking scenes in Dhobi Ghat?
The movie is releasing on January 21, and recently some new trailers of the movie were launched where Aamir is seen in an intimate sequence with a female co-star. As the movie is about four people and their intertwined relationships, Kiran chose to show intimacy more through the emotional connection between the characters.
While talking to a daily, Kiran confesses that she chose to keep the scenes tame, “I kept those scenes tame! They all had their clothes on. Besides, intimacy is not shown through sex but by a connection that you see between the characters in the film. There is no sex in Dhobi Ghat.” How did Aamir manage to do the steamy scenes? Kiran says he rather wanted to make them more exciting. Not to forget, he is a perfectionist.
We hear that Salman has accepted the invitation to Karan’s show, an exception considering that Sallu hardly makes an appearance on any chat show. So far, he has appeared only on Farah Khan’s show Tere Mere Beach Mein.
It’s no secret that Salman and Karan Johar has been bonding well lately. The latter’s equation with Shahrukh never came in the way of their camaraderie. And initially, Karan did want Salman to appear on KWK with Aamir Khan. But when Aamir tagged up with wife Kiran Rao for a special KWK episode, Karan went ahead with a solo appearance of Salman.
It would be interesting to see what frank disclosures Salman makes on the show.

Aishwarya Rai new look on cover on people Magazine: Aishwarya Rai had an eventful 2010 with four releases, but what made her most happy was the birth of her nephew. Though the actress loves to play aunt, she is looking forward to motherhood.
Umpteen times her pregnancy rumours have done the rounds. Plagued and pestered by the question of when the stork is visiting, Aishwarya tells the People magazine that she is looking forward to being a mother: “Of course I am looking forward to it. As and when God has planned for me, I will be a mother.” According to her, a boy and a girl would be perfect to complete a family picture.
“A child is God’s gift and we will be happy to have a child, be it a girl or a boy,” she adds.
Though she likes to leave everything to God, and remains unperturbed by the rumours, she felt hurt when a media report about her supposed inability to conceive because of an ongoing treatment for stomach tuberculosis started doing the rounds.
Aishwarya has also scotched various other rumours in the interview with People, but cleverly evades any question related to her ex-beau Salman Khan.
