Huma Qureshi

Huma Qureshi

Losing it!

Huma Qureshi (Gangs Of Wasseypur, Ek Thi Daayan) has joined the gang of Bollywood actors that has realised the importance of workouts. We hear that the actor whose curves have been the talk of B-town, is now aiming to shed them. Nikhil Advani’s upcoming film D-day could be one reason. Huma plays a RAW agent in it. Apparently, Parineeti Chopra, whose ‘chubbiness’ is considered rather cute, has also taken to gymming with a vengeance.

On-screen romance

Kalki Koechlin will be seen in Raj and DK’s next film with Saif Ali Khan tentatively titled Happy Ending. And, she will romance the Nawab! A romantic comedy, the film is being shot in Los Angeles. The cast also includes Ranvir Shorey and Ileana D’Cruz. Preity Zinta, who has delivered hits with Saif — Salaam Namaste and Kal Ho Na Ho — will chip in with a special appearance.

Game for love

We hear Parineeti and Ileana are in the running for a role opposite Salman Khan in Sooraj Barjatya’s next film! The director is yet to have script sessions with them. The story is reportedly a family drama (what else?) and will tell the tale of two brothers with Salman playing the elder one. The last time Sooraj and Salman collaborated was 14 years ago for Hum Saath Saath Hain.
