Indian film industry has no permanent friendships, and it seems that every friendship happens for a reason. Recently, media has been abuzz with the alleged news of Priyanka-Shah Rukh’s ‘good friends’ status, and that this had miffed a lot of friends of SRK’s since he is a much-married guy. Priyanka, from the look of it, seems to be in a dire need of friends in Bollywood. After the news of Priyanka’s cordial meeting with Salman Khan at Ambani’s part spread all across the internet, it is reported that also Priyanka bonded with Aamir Khan over a cup of tea at the latter’s upcoming TV show’s sets.

It is already known that the people close to Shah Rukh Khan’s family had almost boycotted Priyanka when the rumours of her link-up with the superstar emerged. Filmmaker Karan Johar had also reportedly struck off Priyanka’s name from the guest list of this season’s ‘Koffee with Karan’. Hence, the actress seems to be in a desperate need of friends in the film fraternity. And her endeavours have made her go find company in Shah Rukh’s foe, Salman Khan, and now Aamir Khan.

Well, there might just be another reason why Priyanka might be striving for new bonds, she is yet to work with the ‘Perfectionist’ Khan. We will just wait to see what her exact motivation is.

The rift between Shah Rukh Khan and friend Arjun Rampal has become wider. After cutting off from Arjun personally by being absent from his recent party, SRK has now gone ahead to cease professional terms with the actor.

Shah Rukh has offered perfectionist Aamir Khan a role in the sequel to his home-production ‘Ra.One’. Reports suggest that Aamir has liked the script and might sign on the dotted line soon. If this collaboration falls into place, it’ll surely be one the biggest films Bollywood will ever witness. The news of clashes amongst all the Khans that has often distributed their fan following will also come together with the film.

However, we wonder what route SRK-Arjun bond (if at all it exists anymore) will take, for SRK seems to be in no mood to settle things between them.

Asked if the trio would team up again, Hirani said, "Yes, it would be a return." Earlier, Aamir on his birthday had said, "I would love to do Raju's (Hirani) film. But I want him to make the announcement. The script is very good. Raju is a very good director and a very good human being. We have spoken about a film, but it is better if he announces it."

This year, Aamir will be seen in 'Talaash', a psychological thriller directed by Reema Kagti which also features Kareena Kapoor and Rani Mukerji. It is slated for release either in November-end or early December. Then he has Yash Raj Films 'Dhoom 3', which is schedule to release in 2013. The shooting of 'Dhoom 3' starts in May.

Their 2009 blockbuster, 3 IDIOTS was a masterpiece and had done wonders at the box-office besides setting several new records internationally. And one is eager to watch their next venture in making.

After garnering loads of appreciation for her acting prowess all these years, Preity Zinta has turned to scriptwriting now.

Dimple-cheeked actress has co-scripted her forthcoming film 'Ishq in Paris'. Touted to be an original script, the movie was initially rumored to be an imitation of films like Sunrise, Sunset and Family Man, which according to the actress is untrue. It is an original scripted commercial Hindi film and also cannot be labeled as an Indo-French film.

This is the first time that Preity has tried her hands at story writing. But, she isn’t the first actor to do so as Salman Khan began the trend of actors reinventing careers in writing with 'Veer'. Aamir Khan too lately has joined the bandwagon as he will be co-writing the script for wife Kiran Rao along with Nuzhat (Mansoor’s sister) and Mansoor (Khan, his director cousin).
