The Veer actor is livid with the filmmaker for not paying him Rs 15 crore, has approached FWICE to help them meet
Salman Khan had sent a legal notice to Veer producer Vijay Galani last year (Mumbai Mirror, August 27, 2010) for non-payment of dues amounting to Rs 15 crore. Angry at the filmmaker's lack of reaction to the notice, Salman Khan has now filed a complaint with the Federation Of Western Cine Employees about the same. And again Galani has decided not to pay heed to it infuriating the Dabangg Khan. And now, a livid Sallubhai wants to hold a meeting with Galani face-to-face.
The president of FWICE, Dharmesh Tiwari refused to comment initially, but on persisting further confirmed the news. "Yes. This is true. We have written to Galani informing him about Salman's complaint.
We have also written to Association of Motion Pictures & T.V. Programme Producers (AMPTPP). But usse bhi kuch farak nahi hua. Galani is not forthcoming. On the other hand, Salman wants to have a meeting as soon as possible. The ball is now in AMPTPP's court," Tiwari told Mumbai Mirror.
However, when contacted, Galani said, "My association (read AMTPP) is dealing with the case. They told me that they have squashed it. I don't know if there is any further development. Mera ismein koi lena dena nahi hai."
After making us laugh with her antics (remember the preening in the mirror), the controversial Veena Malik will now use her comic talent on reality stage all over again.
The Pakistani girl has been roped in by Sony’s Comedy Circus to be part of their upcoming season titled as Comedy Circus Key Tansen. As suggested by the title, the show will have singers as participants too. Every team will be a trio of a TV celebrity, singer and a comedian.
Some of the names confirmed on the show are Abhijeet Sawant, Hard Kaur, Raja Hassan and Abhaas Joshi. Shweta Tiwari has been retained in the upcoming season which will launch on the Fool’s Day. Considering the two cats (Veena and Shweta) from Bigg Boss will come together again, we can look forward to some fireworks.
Google has unbundled another part of Android from the OS itself, and has put a new version of YouTube, 2.1, into the Android Market. The company earlier said it was going to continue to do this, so that important but not central portions of platform functionality no longer need be tied to Android OS releases.
In this case, the bad news is that the new version of YouTube requires Froyo (Android 2.2) on your device. The good news lies in the changes. In addition to saying that the YouTube app was rebuilt from the ground up to mirror the desktop experience, Google also said thew new version is their "fastest, most intuitive YouTube mobile app to date." In addition:
In-page playback: you can read the video description, browse related, rate or flag videos without having to interrupt video playback.
Posting comments: you can post a comment while the video is playing, just like on the desktop website.
Subscription updates: we've made it easier to access new videos from your subscriptions. If you are signed into your account, you will see all your subscription updates right on the home screen of the app.
New full-screen UI: To enter full-screen mode simply rotate the phone. The new player controls make it easier to seek within the video, and you can pause or resume the playback by just tapping on the screen.
Google took feedback on the earlier version of the unbundled YouTube from a few of weeks back, and included some of those suggestions in version 2.1. In addition to being in the Android Market, as 2.3 rolls out (it will be on the upcoming Nexus S, for once), that platform version also has YouTube 2.1 pre-installed.
As Wikileaks continue to be under attack from many different directions, the site is attempting to increase the number of mirrors around the world. A mirrored site duplicates the content, so that even if Wikileaks were to be taken down, the content would still exist somewhere in the world.
A Tweet sent out by Wikileaks today indicates the whistle-blower site now has over 200 mirrors. Currently, the site has a plea on one of its pages. It says:
Wikileaks is currently under heavy attack.
In order to make it impossible to ever fully remove Wikileaks from the Internet, we need your help.
if you have a unix-based server which is hosting a website on the Internet and you want to give wikileaks some of your hosting resources, you can help!
The message is followed with instructions on how to host a mirror.
Since its latest release, over 250,000 diplomatic cables, Wikileaks has been under attack, both literally (with DDoS attacks), being booted off of DNS servers and hosting services, and losing the ability to lose its PayPal account to accept donations.
While Wikileaks and its chief, Julian Assange, are under attack from many sides, it also has supporters. They are using the #imwikileaks hashtag, among others, on Twitter, in a manner similar to the way "I am Spartacus" was used to protect the gladiator in the film "Spartacus."
A few of the Tweets:
1) All the censoring of WikiLeaks is more alarming than the actual content of the leaks. It only further justifies WL’s actions.
2) It's not wrong to lie, cheat, steal, corrumpt, and torture. It's wrong to let people know about it.
3) The great powers of the world come together to stop Wikileaks. This is more frightening than the information they've shared.

All I needed to do was realize it and recognize what I wanted to do.”

A cold war is going on between Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan and tabloid newspaper. Because of this fact, Amitabh Bachchan has boycotted the most prestigious ceremony Filmfare awards, which was organizing its 55th ceremony this year. The 66-year-old actor was nominated as the best male actor for his movie “Paa” where he acted along with his son Abhishek Bachchan. It is thought that Amitabh Bachchan may not accept this award. Both Bachchans stayed out from this function. I think you already know that why they boycotted the award ceremony after Mumbai Mirror published news related about Bachchans. They wrote that Abhishek’s wife, former Miss World Aishwarya Rai could not give birth to baby. This year “Paa” won two awards. Its actress Vidya Balan won nominated as the best actress.
When Mumbai Mirror reported the false news about Aishwarya Rai suffering from stomach tuberculosis and not being able to conceive because of it, Aishwarya Rai immediately sent a mail to Mumbai Mirror, branding the news as false and asking for an apology. Do you think Mumbai Mirror really went overboard this time by fabricating false stories about Aishwarya Rai not being able to become a mother because of TB?
