Veena is trying hard to achieve successful heroine status in Lollywood, but apparently it has eluded her so far. She is still considered a B-class heroine and that is why she’s reconsidering her decision of coming back to the small screen.
Recently, she announced that she will act in Prime’s sitcom Misfit, penned by Dr. Younus Butt. She worked in the sitcom for eight months but left it when her movie Yeh dil aap ka huwa was released. Receiving various offers from directors, she announced that she would focus her full attention towards the silver screen and not sign any new TV serials.
After spending almost one year in the film industry, Veena is making her way back towards TV land. She revealed that she is not pessimistic about her film career as the film industry as a whole is going through a crisis. Veena said that as she had a number of good projects in hand, she is confident about the potential of her upcoming movies. The actress is all set to leave for England where she will be working in Reema’s debut flick as a director.—M.J
Love that apology
Courtney Love apologized to ex-boyfriend Ed Norton and his current squeeze, Salma Hayek. Love let her tongue get her in trouble when she told a Vanity Fair writer that Norton will “never marry (Mexican actress Hayek)...he can barely understand half of what she’s saying.” Love says Norton “has never made any negative comments about Ms. Hayek to me and does not discuss that part of his personal life with me, except to let me know how happy he is.”
“I especially apologize to Ms. Hayek, who is nothing if not brilliant, with a loving relationship and a massive I.Q., not to mention a firm grip and style with the English language.”
Love was also quoted as saying her late husband, Kurt Cobain, had “wanted to be a streetwalker.”—Rush and Molloy
A new act
Considering the situation in Lollywood right now, film artists are walking up other avenues to keep themselves busy. Saud, the movie world’s tough guy, recently revealed at a social gathering that he is busy writing his memoirs. He said his autobiography would be very interesting as he will write in detail his experiences in tinseltown, which include his relationships with Meera, Reema and other heroines.
Saud said that the media had made him the most infamous hero of Lollywood, but he will reveal in his book how certain showbiz girls have used him for their own purposes. The actor said that he is confident this book will become the bestseller of the year. If this happens, then it will be a new trend in the local showbiz scene. We have seen Saud playing with guns and gals on the big screen, but let’s see how well he can play with the pen.—-Mohsin
