Here's a list of things you may not know about your favorite Bollywood stars! Check out our Bollywood Fun Facts!
John Abraham Reveals his Favorite Bollywood Babe Co -Star
Bollywood heartthrob John Abrahamhas had the pleasure of acting alongside many of Bollywood’s most famous beauties. So I had to ask the actor who has been his favorite co-star so far. "Let’s set the record straight now; Abhishek Bachchan, he’s a little hairy but that’s ok," giggled the "Dostana" actor! Sorry Bips, Priyanka and other Bollywood babes that acted with John, it looks like Abhishek is one the that charmed him!
Shabana Azmi Puts Her Heart in an Indian Village
Artist and activist are two words that come to mind when I think about the iconic Bollywood actress Shabana Azmi. Azmi continues to work with the people of Mijwan, a tiny village in the State of UP. She has set up a charity that began from the aspirations of her father and great poet and activist, the late Kafi Azmi. Shabana and her team work towards providing education, skill development and general awareness of socio-political issues to the people of Mijwan. When speaking to her about her project, she responded by saying, "The light needs to shine on rural India." I couldn’t agree more! Check out http://www.mijwan.org/ if you want to get involved.
Boman Irani, Not Always in Front of the Camera
Not all actors start off their career as actors. Sometimes their journeys begin somewhere else before they enter the world of acting. This was the case for Boman Irani , "I was being practical because I had a wife and kids and acting can be tough. I knew in photography I didn’t need as much luck as in acting. You can be the most talented actor in the world but you need a slice of luck as well." Well I am sure Boman was a great photograper but the silver screen would not be the same without him, so I am glad that he got a slice of luck in acting!
Shilpa Shetty Goes Green
Shilpa Shetty has joined the fight against global warming. The actress told me, "I'm now working on global warming. I really hope people understand how grave the issue is. I want them to start conserving energy and not wasting natural resources; make small changes, like switching off the lights. I know this sounds very preachy - but I want people to know we are just abusing the planet and we have to give back something to the future generation." Go Shilpa!
Mallika Sherawat Suffers in a Snake Suit
When Bollywood bombshell Mallika Sherawat signed on to American Director Jennifer Lynch’s film "Hisss," the world was buzzing with curiosity about the film. Well I caught up with the actress to get the story on what it was like to be a snake woman. "I've been through pure torture. Pure torture. The makeup took four hours. When I got into the snake suit I had to be carried. I couldn't pee for 14 hours. When I got the role I was so happy and jumping with joy, thinking who wouldn't want to play this. Then I was sitting in the chair and thinking what did I get myself into?" she said, giving a laugh while reminiscing on the tough but rewarding process. Oh my, well I guess an actress has to give it her all to get into character!

After the success of James Cameron's latest movie "Avatar" everyone seems to be jumping on the 3-D bandwagon!
And even after his death, pop icon Michael Jackson has released a 3-D video for his "Earth Song" that is set to premiere during this weekend's Grammy Awards ceremony.
The clip shows a girl walking in a jungle with butteflies flying all around to the tunes of MJ's voice.
"It starts out with some beautiful images of the world and our environment, and Michael's childlike love for animals and birds and dolphins. It introduces a little girl, a beautiful little girl who at one point in the film basically goes to sleep, and when she wakes up — she's in a forest and it's very pastoral — and when she wakes up, all of a sudden it's all changed and it's bad. The environment is being affected and trees are being cut down," Grammy co-executive producer Ken Ehrlich told MTV.com.
Fans will have to wait until this weekend to watch the entire movie during a tribute to the late King of Pop, but you can already now get a sneak peak of what's to come!
Check out this video teaser for the late Michael Jackson's "Earth Song" and tell us what you think!
