Trisha: That special smile


Some would have noticed that special glow in Trisha’s smile in recent times. The girl gifted with a beautiful face, an attractive figure, and a smile to die for, has added glitter to her smile, which has been glowing naturally.

The new addition to the attraction of the beautiful smile is made possible by a new fashion called ‘Dental Jewellery’, which is fast becoming the in-thing among young girls. Trisha has opted for this ‘Dental Jewellery’ by embedding a precious Swarovski stone in her tooth and that is the secret of the extra glow in her smile.

The process, it is learnt that would cost Rs 1500 per stone. The cost will increase depending on the value of the stone.

It may be recalled that Trisha won the award for Miss Beautiful Smile in a beauty contest held in 2001.

123 -review


Directed by Debutant director Ashwani Dheer, One Two Three stars Suniel Shetty, Tusshar Kapoor and Paresh Rawal in the lead. The supporting starcast includes Esha Deol, Sameera Reddy, Tanisha, Upen Patel… and loads of character actors… One Two Three is a slapstick comedy with a decent starcast.. Is it funny enough to tickle your funny bone for 2 and half hours?
One Two Three Story

One Two Three is a story of mistaken identity of three men with the same name and the hunt for diamonds worth 20 crores. Young love birds Chandu (Upen Patel) and Chandni (Tanisha) get hold of the diamonds of dangerous don Papa. They hide the diamond in the fuel tank of an ancient car thinking nobody will ever buy, but to their dismay, their boss Laila is hell bent on selling the same car to save her showroom.

A wannabe bhai (Tusshar Kapoor), a silly geek (Sunil Shetty), and a lingerie salesman (Paresh Rawal), are the three men having the same name waiting for messages at the hotel reception desk. They get the letters and photographs of the wrong girls meant for the other person. Although they end up at the wrong places, they actually end up doing things for the right reason.

What is the duty assigned to them? Where do they land and what do they do?
One Two Three Review

A movie like One Two Three demands a couple of things. You’re required to leave your brains back at home and dare not look out for a story as more often than not, there aint any… Some movies of the same genre and style works wonders but most of them fall flat. Unfortunately One Two Three belongs to the latter category. Its nothing but a set of silly jokes put together in a senseless plot with a few actors hamming throughout. A few sequences are funny, especially those involving Sanjay Mishra but that’s about it. The direction and screenplay are below average. The music is bad. The dialogues tend to get repetitive (especially those by Suniel Shetty) but some of them are hilarious.

Sanjay Mishra stands out with a brilliant performance, his dialogue delivery and comic timing is superb. Suniel Shetty comes second with a good performance. Paresh Rawal is as usual good. Tusshar Kapoor needs to work big time on his dialogue delivery and body language. Esha Deol hams. Tanisha is irritating and so is Upen Patel. Sameera Reddy is strictly okay. The rest of the supporting cast performs well.

Overall, One Two Three is a below average comedy movie. Watch it if you have nothing better to do.

Paris Hilton hurts her chin

Paris Hilton badly hurt her chin after falling over in Prague on Sunday.

The hotel heiress - who has U.S. size 11 feet - was rushing out of a music store in the Czech Republic capital in a bid to escape the paparazzi.

Paris, who was wearing sneakers, tripped as she went through the door with her boyfriend, Good Charlotte rocker Benji Madden.

Instead of helping her up, Benji stepped over the 27-year-old socialite. When he realized what had happened, the musician helped Paris up and glared at photographers who were swarming the celebrity couple.

As the left the store, Paris was overhead moaning to Benji: "Prague, never again!"

The following day, the beauty was seen sporting a large bruise on her chin as she left the Good Charlotte concert at the city's Congress Center.

Meanwhile, Paris is the most overexposed celebrity in the US.

According to Los Angeles E-Poll Market Research, which rated more than 3,000 celebrities in terms of their appeal, 70 per cent of US citizens would use the word overexposed to describe 'The Simple Life' star.

Most celebrities average between three and seven per cent at the height of their careers, researchers found. Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen also appeared on the list.

Gerry Philpott, Chief Executive of E-Poll, said: "In this country, we love to build people up, tear them down and then build them back up again. You can go from zero to 60 in exposure like that. And, for that matter, 60 to zero

Prince Henry







Biography
Prince Henry of Wales (given name-Henry Charles Albert David) was born on September 15, 1984, at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington, in London, England. More commonly known as Prince Harry, he's the younger son of Charles, Prince of Wales, first in the line of succession to the British Throne, and the late Diana, Princess of Wales. His brother, Prince William of Wales, is second in line to the throne, and both are the grandsons of Queen Elizabeth II.

Hailing from the royal family, the young Princes attended the most exclusive schools in the UK, starting with Mrs. Jane Mynors's nursery school in West London. Like his brother, Harry attended the Wetherby School before graduating to Ludgrove School in Berkshire and in September 1998, he entered Eton College, the traditional school of the royals.
diana's tragic death
On the last day of August 1997, a few weeks following a summer holiday with their mother in the South of France, Prince Charles awoke Harry and William, staying at the Balmoral Castle, to deliver the news of their mother’s tragic death in a car crash. At the funeral service at Westminster Abbey, the royals restricted the media from taking close-up pictures of the young Princes, then aged 13 and 15.
prince harry goes to rehab
When he was 17, Harry was sent by Prince Charles to a drug rehab center in south London after he told his father about his experimentation with marijuana and alcohol. Charles hoped that his son would see the potentially devastating effects that drugs could have on a young person's life from his one day visit to the clinic. The Queen stated that she was pleased with the manner in which Prince Charles handled the situation. The parties during which Harry had indulged in the substances had taken place at Charles' Highgrove country estate in western England in the summer of 2001.

In June 2003, Harry left Eton with two A-levels, a B in Art and a D in Geography. Upon graduation, Harry set off on travels to Australia and Africa. While stationed in the land down under, he worked on a cattle ranch and caught some of the 2003 Rugby World Cup. Before taking off to Argentina for some R&R, Harry delved into some work at a Lesotho orphanage in Africa.
prince harry and chelsy davy
While working at an Argentinean polo ranch, British tabloids reported in November 2004 that Harry was the target of a foiled kidnapping plot. Buckingham Palace referred to the claim as "irresponsible." It was also here that Harry and Zimbabwe-born heiress, Chelsy Davy, were first photographed together. Reportedly, the two have been a couple since 2003, and despite speculation regarding the status of their relationship, Davy was escorted by armed guard to Harry’s passing out ball, Prince William has been quoted as saying that the two are in love, and she expressed her disappointment in Harry’s 2006 visit to the Spearmint Rhino strip club.

Some claim that “Dirty Harry” and Chelsy are engaged, but that is only speculation, and the manner in which he reportedly cavorts around with sports presenter Natalie Pinkham, leads us to believe that there must be an open relationship in existence between the two.
prince harry hoped to serve in iraq
The prince joined the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst as Officer Cadet Wales in May 2005. The following year, he joined the ranks of the Royal Navy, as other members of his family have done in the past, and was appointed as Commodore-in-Chief, Small Ships and Diving. In April 2006, he passed out as a newly commissioned officer at the Sovereign's Parade at Sandhurst. That same year saw Harry become Troop Commander Wales and attain the rank of Lieutenant. He also began his training as a tank reconnaissance commander in May, when he joined the Blues and Royals regiment of the Household Cavalry.

The Ministry of Defense and Clarence House confirmed in February 2007 that Harry would accompany his regiment on a six-month tour of Iraq, but that decision was overturned on May 16, 2007. The initial resolve to deploy a member of the British Royal family to an active combat zone was considered a controversial one, as some relatives of those serving amongst the Blues and Royals feared the regiment could be targeted specifically due to Harry's status. The regiment left to serve as part of the 1st Mechanized Brigade of the 3rd Mechanized Division in the spring, without Troop Commander Wales.
