Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor has been fined Rs 200 for smoking in public by the district court.

The 29-year-old actor was accused of violating the Rajasthan Prevention of Smoking Act after a local daily published images of Ranbir smoking on May 28, while shooting for 'Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani' with Deepika Padukone here.

Harish Vaishnav had lodged a complaint at a local court in Udaipur, following which Ranbir was summoned on June 26.

Since the summon could not be delivered to him by the date, the court fixed July 26 for his appearance, on which day his lawyer KK Purohit appeared and said that Ranbir did smoke in public but it was part of the film.

He also said that the act will not be repeated.

According to the Rajasthan Prevention of Smoking Act, a person found guilty of smoking in public can be sentenced to a maximum imprisonment of six months or a fine of Rs 200. On Monday the court ordered Ranbir to pay the fine.

Purohit paid the fine amount in the absence of the actor.

Posted: 28 Aug 2012 08:48 PM PDT


Sayali Bhagat's ex publicist Anant Narayan has sent a apology to her for sending out false press releases claiming she was sexually harassed by Shiney Ahuja, Sajid Khan, Arya Babbar and Amitabh Bachchan. The claim was a severe blow to Bhagat's reputation.
On August 27, 2011, Sayali hired Narayan, the head of a PR firm called Creame Talent Management Pvt Ltd involved in image management, brand marketing and public relations, as her publicist. In November, Narayan sent out the press releases to various media outlets, claiming that various A-list celebrities had sexually harassed his client.
Sayali, immetiately took action and approached the police who then arrested Narayan from his home in Haryana. In January, Bhagat had approached the High Court, opposing the bail granted to Narayan. However, the court dismissed her application and as per the instructions from the court, Bhagat has now received a written apology from Narayan.

Asin, who hails from South, will be essaying the role of a typical Maharashtrian girl in her upcoming film 'Khiladi 786' with Akshay Kumar and Mithun Chakraborthy. This Akshay and Himesh Reshammiya's production venture is an action comedy and Asin plays the role of Mithun's sister. Mithun's character is named Tatya Tukaram Tendulkar and Aisn plays the role of Maya Tendulkar.
In one of the elaborate wedding sequences in the film, Asin got dressed up in a navvari green kashta sari, mundavalya (bridal jewellery), chandrakor (crescent moon) bindi and nathni (nose ring studded with pearls and beads) and green glass bangles. This was quite in contrast with her earlier bridal lehengas which she wore for her earlier films like 'Ready' and 'Housefull 2'.
Picking up the Marathi accent and the customs was quite a task for the actress who turned up to her Marathi co-stars and crew members for help.
