BIG CBS Network is making sure that the mercury raises few notches up again this season. After the success of ‘India’s Sexiest Bachelor’, the Network is bringing another home grown property ‘India’s Glam Diva’, where leading ladies from the entertainment industry of India will be judged together by an esteemed jury and the Indian public, to select their favourite Diva. The show will be aired on BIG CBS Networks’ women centric channel, BIG CBS LOVE. As the name suggests, it is a platform to bring the most ravishing, talented and deserving divas to the fore.

India’s Glam Diva will bring together – the gorgeous and glamorous women from India, who will compete for India’s final choice of the most glamorous Diva. Backed by the expert jury and programming team and coupled with audience feedback from across the country, phase I will see a shortlist of the top 14 contenders for the coveted title.

The Channel unveiled the stunning ladies competing for the title: Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra, Vidya Balan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Katrina Kaif, Sonam Kapoor, Sunidhi Chauhan, Bipasha Basu, Ekta Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha, Sania Mirza, Freida Pinto and Shruti Hassan.

The show has been divided into segments. First Segment will give you a peek into the minds of Divas. The Divas will be judged on the basis of their X factor, their public appearances, the brands they handle and their business sense, judging their minds. Second segment will include the attributes that make them so hot. Is it her eyes, is it her lips, her complexion, her skin, her attire, her sex appeal or is it the combination of all?... essentially evaluating the body. The third segment – after Mind and Body, will be Soul. It will be an electrifying combination of these factors that make for a winner.

India’s Glam Diva will be hosted by VJ and actor Neil Bhoopalam. Neil has already made a mark in the industry with his outstanding performance in “Shaitan” and “No one killed Jessica”.

Commenting on India’s Glam Diva, BIG CBS Networks said, "After a successful season of India's Sexiest Bachelor, we are glad to announce our second property India's Glam Diva. The show will have the most gorgeous women from the entertainment industry on one platform. These women will be judged on various factors by the viewers. The show will bring to the fore an unusual side of these women that was never known to their fans."

Voting mechanism will include sms, a special BIG CBS microsite and other social media vehicles e.g. Facebook and Twitter. The show is anticipated to garner high TRPs for the network just like India’s Sexist Bachelor.

Karan Johar’s remake of his father’s hit film starring Amitabh Bachchan releases a day after Hrithik’s debut film did in 2000. Will this spell success for Hrithik, likeKaho Naa…Pyaar Hai did?

Bollywood has always been influenced by a wave of superstitious beliefs. Some think that fetishes can help conceal a bad script, while others resort to the plain numbers game. Perhaps resorting to the same idea, the makers of the Agneepath remake have postponed the release date of the movie to January 13, which is as close as they could get to the date of hero Hrithik Roshan’s first release, Kaho Naa…Pyaar Hai. KNPH had hit the screens on January 14, and since then Hrithik has been grooving through the labyrinths of B-town, headed steadily upwards, even though some of his releases bombed at the BO. The remake ofAgneepath is a huge affair, considering every actor in the movie - especially Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra and Sanjay Dutt – has to live up to the benchmark created by the original. We can just imagine Karan Johar biting his otherwise well-manicured nails and thinking of innovative ways to create the much needed noise for this one. What’s interesting is when people in B-town resort to an amalgamation of marketing and superstitious tactics for the success of their films. So all we can do is wait and watch if the strategy to recreate Hrithik’s magic works for the movie. Eventually we all know that the super formula for any film to work at the BO is its ability to strike a chord with the masses. After a while, marketing tools and sacred good luck charms, number games and altered spellings all go down the drain….

Still no relief for director Prakash Jha. The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked Jha to make Uttar Pradesh chief secretary as party in the case. 

Jha's counsel Ameet Naik told TOI, "Judge has asked us to make Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary as party in the case."

It maybe recalled here that Prakash Jha moved Supreme Court on Friday challenging the ban on his film 'Aarakshan' in Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh and Punjab.

However, as the day wore on, it was clear that it was the viewers who had reservations going to theatres, fearing trouble. Jha failed to get interim relief to lift the ban on the film before its release.
Day after the release of Aarakshan, Andhra Pradesh and Punjab lifted the ban on the film but Uttar Pradesh continued to stay the release for three weeks.

According to website boxofficeindia, the film has collected a total of Rs 19 crore in the first weekend of the release.
