After Prashant Tamang, multi-talented Sourabhee Debbarma, who hails
from Tripura, has won the Sony TV’s reality singing contest ‘Indian
Idol 4’ after defeating the other two finalists Kapil Thapa (second)

The big news doing the rounds is that Harman Baweja has been replaced by John Abraham in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's upcoming film ‘Chenab Gandhi’.

This will be Bhansali's next production after ‘Saawariya’ and will be a period film.

Harman was signed for the film in 2008.

But after his debut film ‘Love Story 2050’ and later, ‘Victory’ failed to impress audiences, the producers have had a rethink.

It seems that that the theme of ‘Youngistan' is all set to rule this year’s Filmfare Awards.

As had been predicted, the King Khan aka Shahrukh Khan and Chote Nawab aka Saif Ali Khan will not be hosting the Filmfare awards to be held on Feb 28.

Newcomers Ranbir Kapoor and Imran Khan will replace SRK and Saif as official hosts of ‘Filmfare Awards’ this year.

SRK shoulder surgery is believed to be the reason for his expulsion.

The movie represents various issues related to film industry like exploitation of aspiring actors and actresses by producers and directors, broken dreams, struggle, false hopes etc.
