“It is a huge honour for me to be representing our cinema at Cannes. I am not going there as a brand ambassador. I am going there for my movie and that is a big deal. Manish and I have decided that since I am representing the country on a global platform, it would be perfect to be dressed in something that’s truly desi,” Ameesha said in a statement
“Nothing looks better on an Indian woman than a sari or lehenga. I have to walk the red carpet in the morning and the premiere is at night, so there will be two outfits,” added the actress known for hits like "Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai" and "Gadar - Ek Prem katha".

Mithun Chakraborty to host Bengali version of Bigg Boss

Mithun Chakraborty to host Bengali version of Bigg Boss


The producers of Bigg Boss have approached Mithun Chakraborty to host the Bengali version of the reality show. Just a few days back, they had signed Riteish Desmukh for the Marathi version. When media got in touch with Mithun, he confirmed that he has had a meeting with Endemol, the producers of the show. However, he is yet to finalise the deal. “This is true that we have been in talks about hosting the Bengali Bigg Boss. They had called even today. I will give my final answer on Monday,” Mithun told Media through a sms.


According to sources, the only hitch in the deal is Mithun’s remuneration, which is still being negotiated. Considering that the makers have contacted Mithun after talks with Sourav Ganguly failed, they might agree to Mithun’s demand.

“The producers of Bigg Boss are known to shell out big money for the show. Even this time it will be the most expensive reality show on regional television,” the source said adding: “If the deal is signed, Mithun will easily become one of the highest paid anchors on regional television. Negotiations are on at the moment. You may expect a formal announcement from the producers some time later today.”
