 Small screen Ishaqzaade fighting for Best Jodi award at Indian Telly Awards
Be it small screen or the big one, love story is what completes both. While we talk of daily soaps then there exist a number of reel life couples who have redefined the concept in a different yet alluring way. They are the true Ishaqzaade of small screen and like every year, this time too Indian Telly Awards are all set to honor the Best Jodi amongst all. As we said, there are number of jodis ruling our hearts but here we have got the top ones who are into a tough competition. So let us check them out and see what makes them so different.

To start with, we have got the inseparable yet poles apart Arnav and Khushi from Star Plus’ Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon.

Parineeti Chopra credits Habib Faisal for Ishaqzaade success
 After impressing one and all with her vivacious stint as Dimple in her maiden venture Ladies V/S Ricky Bahl, actress Parineeti Chopra has hit the jackpot for the second time with Ishaqzaade.

The young and vibrant love tale, full of anger and vengeance, stars Parineeti alongside star kid Arjun Kapoor. They have floored everyone with their power packed acting skills and tremendous on-screen chemistry. Success of the film has once again made Parineeti bag accolades from all ends, but the girl is courteous enough to thank the director Habib Faisal for this feat.

She says, “Habib Sir is a mind blowing writer and I can say that he is one of the best writers that we have in our country. He has evolved and lived with the characters while writing the story and this adds to his direction abilities. He has acute clarity about his characters, whether it's their walk, talk, mannerisms, body language, facial expressions etc. It becomes easy to work with such directors and you get to learn a lot. He is a gifted writer/director and the more you interact with him, the more you realize that”.

Parineeti went on saying, “Full credit to Habib Sir here since in real life, Arjun and I aren't Parma or Zoya. Perfectionist that he is, Habib Sir prepared us for the role through workshops and other sessions for four full months. We lived lives of Parma and Zoya and were just being them instead of playing them. We took these characters home and that's the reason why it all looks so effortless on screen. Honestly, a lot of hard work has gone in it and now I can safely say that it has paid off."

Guess we too agree with you Parineeti!

Parineeti Chopra is bonding well with Jacky  Bhagnani

Bollywood is not just good for films that it gives to the box office, but also for the latest news and updates revealing the life and happening of B’wood actors.

We have always loved to hear about the news and gossips from the B-town and here is one more which has everything to do with the newbie Ishaqzaade actress Parineeti Chopra.

We have always been wondering that why weren’t Parineeti and Arjun Kapoor seen together during the promotion of their film Ishaqzaade. It was being thought that the crew was being considerate to Arjun as he has recently lost his mom. But to our surprise we have got to know that the main reason behind this was Parineeti Chopra.

The actress who met Jacky Bhagnani few months back in March has been bonding well with him and spares time to spend with Jacky. Well, this comes as a bolt out of the blue as Parineeti has always tried to keep her friendship with Jacky under wraps. The people close to the couple say that they are just in the friendship phase.

So there is a lot they need to know about each other before getting into a romantic relationship. Let’s see how long does it take for them to become lovers.

Stars are always born with more than just one talent and tend to reveal it after some time. Like Priyanka Chopra, who is really good at singing, her cousin and the newbie in the tinsel town Parineeti Chopra has revealed that she too has a passion for singing.

Well, this is ultimate news from the bubbly girl Parineeti Chopra who is currently on with the promotions of her upcoming and second flick opposite ArjunKapoor.

Parineeti, who will next be seen in Ishaqzaade, told everyone few days back that she can sing as she has been trained. Ask her if she will sing for the next movie, she says that she won’t sing unless she is satisfied with her acting. She might take up singing seriously later in her career.

She said, “I am a trained singer. Nidhi Narag is my guruji from Ambala. I had learnt singing for almost six years. I have done BA (hons) in music. I don’t want to sing right now. I have just started acting. I think after five to six years, when I will feel I have got a grip on acting and I don’t need to practice anymore, I will sing.”

When asked if she has a crush on any one, she said, “No I was not in love, but I have had 300 crore crushes. I like Saif Ali Khan but please don’t tell him. Whenever I meet Kareena Kapoor, I will tell her that you have competition.”

Well, the Chopras are born multi talented. Hope to see her second talent soon.

Hot chemistry of Ishaqzaade’s; Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra has already become the talk of the town these days. The audience is eagerly waiting for the curtains to be raised as this most touted upcoming is all set to hit theatres on May 11.

It is known that tinsel town’s newbie handsome, Arjun Kapoor is making a grand debut with this movie. Well, the strange part is that, though his first movie has not been released yet but people have already started comparing him with his uncle, Anil Kapoor who is a Bollywood veteran.

As per the industry sources, Arjun is not happy with this comparison and holds a view that it would be an insult to his uncle’s body of work. On being quizzed, he told the sources, “If I get compared to Anil chachu, then it means I have achieved a lot already. But I don't think it's fair to compare me with him because it's an insult to his body of work.”

The actor further asserted that comparison should be done fairly and should be on equal grounds, he added, “Today, he is in Hollywood and he has achieved what people only dream of. Comparisons are inevitable, but it should be of certain equality. Anil chachu is very superior. Evaluation should be done with my peers. I don't think it will create any pressure”.

Arjun we do respect your feelings!

Ishaqzaade is touted to another great version of Romeo-Juliet

Ishaqzaade is touted to another great version of Romeo-Juliet
It has been five centuries since William Shakespeare wrote his epoch drama Romeo Juliet, but such is its fan following that it continues to be interpreted through different cultural nuances down the ages.

And the latest adaptation of Romeo Juliet is in the form of Ishaqzaade, which has been set up against the cultural backdrop of Hindi hinterland where the guns still rule the roost and it is the ability to take it out and shoot it that determines the social standing of a person in the society.

With Habib Faisal holding the baton to direct the movie, one really not need to worry about the drama content that the film would provide, as he is one of the most accomplished writers and theatre professional.

Added icing on the cake for the movie is that it has two new faces Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra, who does not have a baggage from the past so they would facilitate in letting the characters they portray on the screen, become their talking point.

It is after a long time Yash Raj Films is making a comeback in action genre but they have not done away with their core USP, Romance, as it is romance that is the underlining motif of the film having seasoning in the form of hardcore violence as it is a wont in the vicinity of UP.

Hopefully the film will create wonders on the box-office window!

Arjun Kapoor befriended a taxi-driver in Lucknow while shooting for Ishaqzaade

Arjun Kapoor befriended a taxi-driver in Lucknow while shooting for Ishaqzaade
By now everyone is known to the fact that debutant Arjun Kapoor will be seen playing the role of rustic guy from Uttar Pradesh in Ishaqzaade.

And during his shooting stint in the state, the actor befriended a driver named Avneesh Yadav and later driver became a reference point for the actor's character of a Uttar Pradesh-based boy for the film. Ishaqzaade was shot in a small town called Hardoi near Lucknow.

For the quite some time Yadav has been bragging that he had actually turned Arjun from Bombaiyya to a UP ka chhokra (UP-based boy), and that he taught Arjun the local dialect, the way to walk, and conduct himself like a local, not from Lucknow, but from the state's interiors.

However some thought that he might be saying this to gain limelight but one of Arjun's close friends confirms that Yadav is indeed telling the truth. “Avneesh became Arjun’s best friend in UP. Avneesh is a taxi driver whom Arjun met at the Lucknow airport," said the friend. From that point till the shooting was over, Avneesh and Arjun were nearly inseparable.

A spokesperson from Yash Raj has confirmed the story and Mr. Yadav it seems, is in seventh heaven right now. Along with being Arjun’s body language trainer, Yadav also has a role to his credit and we are sure he couldn’t ask for more. Now dear friends, that’s what we call an incredible stroke of luck!

Katrina Kaif finds her rakhi-brother in Arjun Kapoor

Katrina Kaif finds her rakhi-brother in Arjun Kapoor

Even the thought of considering Katrina Kaif as their sister proves out to be dreadful for many men, but the Ishaqzaade star, debutant actor Arjun Kapoor considers the gorgeous actress as his rakhi sister!

Apparently, according to Arjun, Kat forced him to become her brother. While Salman Khan initiated him into the acting world, Katrina tied him a rakhi five years.

The newbie jokingly tells that Katrina always threatens to be his rakhi sister, but he completely denies that. But, why the denial? “Because she pressurizes me to do it (be her rakhi brother). You should ask her why. She made me do it once, literally, at gunpoint. But we are not a typical brother-sister pair. I am not a protective brother who’s like, ‘Koi dekhega meri bahen ko to thok doonga (if someone looks at my sister I will hit him)”, said Arjun.

Kat and Arjun share this relationship ever since they had been introduced to each other by Salman Khan. Salman has had a big influence on Arjun in motivating him to become an actor in the industry. It was Salman who saw the actor in him when he was still pursuing his career in direction. Arjun turned towards acting only after Salman’s persistence

So, in the future will Arjun and Kat team up as a romantic couple? Well, that remains to be seen!
