VERY FILMY

Match maker
Guess who’s playing the role of the matchmaking mamma—R Madhavan who,on Siddharth Kannan’s radio show,admitted that he’s searching for a bride for Sid. When Sid started ribbing him,he threatened to stop the bride-hunt. Both had a hearty laugh. Madhavan even took down points on what kind of girl Sid was looking for. That’s our man Maddy. Thorough to a fault.

Hubby hunt
Neil Nitin Mukesh has just been chosen to play the role of Priyanka Chopra’s youngest husband in Saat Khoon Maaf. Neil initially feared that he would look incompatible with Priyanka,but being a big fan of Piggy Chops,he decided to take up the challenge. Naseeruddin Shah will be playing Priyanka’s oldest husband. After wooing Vidya Balan in Ishqiya,the Bollywood badshah seems to be meticulously romancing his way down the list of B-town beauties. A little late in life but better late than never,right?

A new dawn
Actress Chitrangada Singh is one busy lady. She is working on two films,Basra,which will be produced by Abhay Deol,and Dhruv by Sudhir Mishra. The actress is hoping that Dhruv will herald a new dawn for her in Bollywood as her last film,Sorry Bhai,didn’t exactly set the cash registers ringing. If nothing works,she could always try slashing those hemlines and doing a steamy item number.
