Salman Khan Issued Supreme Court Notice On Acquittal In Chinkara Poaching Case Actor Salman Khan was today issued notice by the Supreme Court on an appeal by the Rajasthan government challenging his acquittal in two poaching cases. In July, the Rajasthan High Court found the 50-year-old actor not guilty of killing an endangered species of gazelle or chinkara in two separate incidents in 1998 while he was shooting a film in the desert state. The state government challenged his acquittal; it wants him to be imprisoned to serve the rest of his sentence - after being convicted in 2007 for hunting down and killing the chinkaras, he was awarded a one-year prison term and a five-year prison term respectively. He then spent a week in jail in Jodhpur before being granted bail. While finding him not guilty, the High Court had said there was no evidence to prove that the animals who were found dead were shot by Mr Khan's licensed gun.

Tees Maar Khan Box Office Report/Review/Collections

Box Office Report of Tees Maar Khan: Tees Maar Khan Takes a Huge Opening at the box office but the reports about the film are negative Tees Maar Khan took a great opening at the box office across the country but the reports are not good. The film is a hit on the strength of its opening but whether it becomes a blockbuster is in doubt as collections in the evening at places could not keep up with its bombastic start in the morning. Saturday is a holiday which could help but Sunday will tell where the film is going. Another plus is two weeks of no competition. The other two releases of the week, Toonpur Ka Superrhero and Isi Life Mein had very dull collections and could not register at the box office due to the Tees Maar Khan wave. The First Day territorial breakdown of the box office collections for Tees Maar Khan.

No One Killed Jessica has found tremendous appreciation and has Collected approx. Rs. 13.10 cr nett in its opening weekend at the box office (Fri, Sat, Sun) showing a day-wise improvement with each passing day. The Box Office breakup:- Fri: 3.25 cr, Sat: 4.60 cr Sun: 5.25 cr. No One Killed Jessica had a fair Monday with collections of around 2 crore nett. The drop is around 45% from Friday which is decent. The total after four days is around 15 crore nett and the week is heading for about a 20 crore nett total. The January 1st Friday jinx is broken. For some inexplicable reason, the first release of every year hasn't worked at the box-office. It's strange, but even film-makers were wary of releasing their films in the first week. Film people - most of them - are a superstitious lot and the last thing they would ever want is a 'wrong' release date. But the weekend numbers of NO ONE KILLED JESSICA, the first release of 2011, should change the mindset. Besides the jinx f...

In times of love, sex aur dhoka, the newly engaged couple - Sania Mirza and Shoaib Malik - have installed a CCTV outside Sania Mirza's Hyderabad home. It's nothing lascivious. The camera is meant to monitor the crowd outside the Mirza residence, especially the paparazzi. Incidentally, police permission is required to set up a surveillance camera, but the Maliks have flouted the rule and installed one in a corner of the first floor of their residence, adjacent to the room that Shoaib currently occupies. Thanks to the camera, the couple has been able to dodge the media and even step out to receive guests, suggest sources. Apart from alerting family members on the happenings outside, the camera has been providing unexpected entertainment, an insider said. The stars and their families watched reporters cornering an astrologer, who had strayed into the venue, with his parrot. While the astrologer was clueless about the Sania-Shoaib mania , reporters who believed that the Mirzas migh...

It's official. Karan Johar finally admits it is Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra in the Agnipath remake. Hrithik Roshan Speaking officially for the first time about the casting of the Agneepath remake, Karan Johar coolly and cleverly passes on the buck to his novice director Siddharth Malhotra for Abhishek Bachchan's non-presence in the remake...a casting digression that jolted everyone who thought Abhishek was a natural and inevitable inheritor of the Agneepth role. Says Karan: "When my father (late Yash Johar) produced Agneepath, he left everything to his director Mukul Anand and kept completely away from the project. I'm carrying on the family tradition." "The casting for the 'Agneepath' remake was decided by the director Siddharth Malhotra. He decided on Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra. Why Hrithik and not Abhishek? I think Siddharth has his own ideas on how to present the character. I think the protagonist in the new Agneepath would be very ...
