Red Hot Chilli Pepper

He’s worked with Ms-Drop-Dead-Gorgeous Aishwarya Rai, and he was not-so-long-ago married to Little-Miss-Sexy Malini Sharma of Raaz, but Priyanshu Chatterjee (of Aapko Pehle Bhi Kahin Dekha Hai and Dil Ka Rishta shame) still gets all nervous when he’s in the company of women. While shooting with Mahima Chaudhary recently for an intimate bedroom scene for Tanuja Chandra’s film Vaasta, the actor was required to be shirtless and lolling in bed with the Pardes star. But clearly he wasn’t too comfortable faking all that love and passion. He trickled sweat and went red in the face while the actress and the rest of the crew giggled away at his discomfort. No wonder his relationships with Isha Koppikar and Yukta Mookhey were terribly shortlived!

Bounty Hunter

If the grapevine is to be believed, Aishwarya Rai is giving debutant director Rohan Sippy a tough time these days. The actress may have finished shooting for his film Kuch Na Kaho, but she’s holding up his release by refusing to dub for the film, we hear. Apparently the producers haven’t cleared her dues yet and she’s decided she won’t participate in the film’s completion until the booty’s paid up. Rohan, for his part, has nothing but kind things to say about his leading lady. The film, which has been in the making for over four years now, is being readied for a May release, and also stars box-office rejects Abhishek Bachchan and Arbaaz Khan.
