‘An Unread Facebook Message’ Was Responsible For Landing Sayani Gupta In Fan! Confused? Check Out!

For Sayani Gupta, it might have been a nightmare, if she didn’t check her unread Facebook messages randomly that night. Earlier, this actress was seen in Margarita With A Straw, and already she had missed a call from the Yash Raj Films Team for being cast in ‘FAN’. Yes! She had got a role in this movie and wasn’t even aware of it. However, luck had favored her.

She narrates the entire incident!

Sayani says that she hadn’t taken it seriously at all. During that time, she used to do many auditions and sometime it reached even 9 per day. She thought of this is an open casting call, the deadline of which she had missed. Apparently, the YRF team was trying to get in touch with her since a while on her old phone number and since they couldn’t reach, they finally messaged her on Facebook.

She was too surprised!

She was quite surprised and she was called for an audition in the office of Shanoo. She further adds that Shanoo is a star maker and she is incredibly thankful to her and the team. She also thanks Aditya Chopra and director Maneesh Sharma for showing trust in her. By that time the trailer of ‘Margarita With A Strawhad’ was also out and so they showed more faith on her.

It was a secret!

However, destiny had something more for Sayani. She was not even aware that they were casting her opposite SRK. Only after she was finalized, they revealed to her that she would be working with SRK himself. She adds that it has been a great experience working with him so closely and he is truly a gem.

She still remembers her 1st day at shoot!

She still remembers the date that is 4th of December, what she ate, what she wore etc. However, she had to control the excitement within her.

Her biggest dilemma!

As an actor, her biggest dilemma was to manage dates. When she gave confirmation to FAN, she had already reserved dates for Jagga Jasoos. She called up Kalki for help and she told her to say a yes to everything, as 1 or the other would be pushed. And yes, she was true, dates were managed for both Jagga Jasoos as well as FAN.

27 Simple mehndi designs for hands for Karwa Chauth

The most  simple mehndi designs for hands  for Karwa Chauth 2014 Karwa Chauth  is around the corner and I am so excited about getting mehndi done! This time I plan to go with a simple yet quirky design. Don’t want my hands full, however it needs to be a style statement for this year’s most awaited festival for us ladies! There are some basic categories of mehndi designs, such as Gujrati, Rajasthani, Marwari,  Arabic  and African  patterns to choose from. They have certain prominent motifs or symbols that distinguishes one from the other. I just can’t seem to stop experimenting with these styles. From  circles to squares , peacocks and paisleys , checks and dots and what not. But my all-time favorite is a simple, curling vine, of course finger tips covered with thick coating of aromatic mehndi (which is so traditional). Quirky patterns include  traditional  as well as non-traditional patterns tweaked to one’s own liking. This includ...

Kick new song Hangover: Salman Khan’s singing stint is impressive!

The  Kick  star has lent his voice for his new song  Hangover The wait is over.  Hangover  is here! Last time, Salman Khan floored us all with his tapori stint in song  Jumme Ki Raat alongside Jacqueline Fernandez who sizzled with her sultry moves, donning a hot red lace dress. It seems along with giving us killer action sequences and  Dabangg  one liners, our very own Sallu  miyaan  can sing as well! The  Jai Ho  star’s highly anticipated singing stint in  Hangover  is finally out and we are happy to report that the Bhaijaan of B-town has certainly pleasantly surprised us all with his voice which has elements of a sexy twang and a Salman’s casual laid back back feel to it. The song on the whole is romantic, with a hint of zing added to it which makes it appealing to the ears. The tune is catchy and the lyrics are simple, which make  Hangover  a pleasant melody overall. We wonder what the video of ...

I'm not back because of Salman: Mahek

Mahek Chahal, who got evicted from the " Bigg Boss" house earlier this month, is back. In conversation with DT, Mahek not only spoke about her fellow contestants accusing  Salman Khan   of promoting favouritism in the show, but also took digs at Akashdeep Saigal for using foul language and misbehaving with her. "It would be unfair to say that I have been selected as the wild card entry because of Salman Khan. Yeh sarasar jhooth aur bakwaas hai. My supporters saw me being humiliated on the show. If I'm back, it is only because of them and not because of Salman," she says. Now that the model-turned-actress has entered the house again, she wants to settle a score with all those who ill-treated her in the house. "There are certain issues which I want to clarify in the house. For instance, Sky maintains that he never abused anyone. Woh kehta hai ki usne logon ko gaali nahin di. But he hasn't only called me 'bhootni', but also bad-mouthed my family...
