Rumour has it that Ashutosh Gowariker and Sajid Khan had some sort of a face-off during the Star Screen Awards.

Sajid, in his trademark fashion, was taking digs at anyone and everyone and Ashutosh and his lengthy films happened to be the butt of his jokes.

A friend who was at the show told me that Ashu had to step on to the stage one time too many to receive awards on behalf of his technicians.

At one point Sajid joked that Ashu was not the one to miss any opportunity to be on stage and must've told his team to stay at home so he could collect the awards himself. Ashu only smiled at that time.

But when he came to accept the Best Director's trophy, Ashu had his say. Sounding rather acidic when he told the audience he wasn't expecting to get any trophy going by the evening was progressing.

Ashu then went on to express displeasure at Sajid taking digs at everyone around him.

Sajid apparently interrupted him to which Ashu shot back saying, "Shut up!"

A visibly shaken Sajid Khan tried to pacify Ashutosh telling him that it was all being done for the television and it wasn't personal.

But Ashu was not to be pacified and suggested that the humour was not in good taste and he shouldn't demean his colleagues.

Now, I am aware that Sajid and Ashutosh used to be quite close and Sajid had even called up Ashu to congratulate him after watching Swades.

The argument continued as Sajid tried to remind Ashu that they were friends, to which Ashu agreed. "Friends don't tell each other to shut up!" Sajid reportedly told Ashu.

But the Jodhaa director was in no mood to stop. He reprimanded Sajid for interrupting award winners during their speech. After this, he promptly thanked everyone present and walked off the stage.

Soon after Farah Khan, who was the co-anchor for the evening, broached the topic again and supported her brother Sajid.

Next up, Amar Singh, who had come with Jaya Bachchan to present the Best Actress award, decided to make the most of the situation and applauded Ashutosh for 'taking up an issue'.

Clearly the man was reminded of the time when Shah Rukh Khan took a dig at him during another awards function a few years ago.

Now all this has got me thinking whether the whole episode was a publicity stunt. Guess we'll just have to wait and watch!

Last Wednesday, Akshay Kumar gave away his Star Screen award to Aamir Khan. It is now revealed that the gesture was not out of generosity or nobility, but out of anger.

Initially, the actor was to perform at the award function but the organisers couldn't pay him his asking price (Rs 2.5 crore), so he backed out. These days, award functions are all about star attendance.

A-list actors only show up if they are winning awards, or performing at the function. Since performing was out, and the organisers wanted Akki at the event, they hinted that he'd win the Best Actor award.

According to an insider, "The actor promised to be present at the event, and flew back from the world premieres of CC2C on Tuesday morning.

On the day of the award, he sent across a written speech and asked for it to be played on the teleprompter. He was all set to collect his Best Actor award that evening.

To his horror, his name was anno-unced for the Most Popular Actor, and not the Best Actor category as promised."

Akki felt slighted but there was no way he couldn't have gone up on stage to collect his trophy without creating a flurry at the event.

So he went on stage, made his speech, announced that Aamir deserved the award for Ghajini, and walked off from the stage without collecting the trophy.
He announced Aamir's name because he wasn't present at the function. It was quick (and smart) thinking on his part.

After his seemingly generous act on stage, the actor walked off from the event, without waiting for the other winners to be announced.

Adds a source, "The award for the Best actor went to Hrithik Roshan for Jodhaa Akbar. At the time when the organisers told Akshay he'd win the coveted award, they were given to believe that Hrithik wouldn't be able to attend the function.

But at the last minute the actor showed up, and they had to give him the award, as it would've been preposterous to give the award to Singh Is Kinng when the Jodhaa Akbar actor was nominated in the same category."

WHAT LUCK! AAMIR & SRK IN A FILM

... that’s what debutant director Zoya Akhtar has achieved in her spoof on Bollywood

AFSANA AHMED Times News Network

This is a coup for any director in Bollywood. Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan in one film! Take a bow, Zoya Akhtar — you’ve managed to do that in your debut film. The long wait for cinema audiences everywhere is now over with Zoya’s Luck By Chance (produced by Excel Entertainment and Reliance Big Pictures) hitting the screens on January 30.
Interestingly, the Khans play themselves in the film, but regretfully don’t share screen space and appear at different times individually. SRK interacts with Farhan and Aamir with Konkona. Both superstars have excellent relationships with Farhan and Zoya and both wanted to support this film.
Even though Aamir doesn’t do cameos, he readily agreed because he is familiar with the set-up having worked with producer Ritesh Sidhwani and director-actor Farhan in Dil Chahta Hai. Also, Aamir who works on bound scripts only, had already read Luck By Chance’s script when Zoya took it to him for feedback some years ago. So that was also okay.
“Initially, we were in a fix wondering how to talk to him, knowing his stance on cameos, till dad called me up to say he had spoken to Aamir,” explained the petite Zoya. Once dad Javed Akhtar succeeded with Aamir, SRK was easy to approach. “I personally spoke to Shah Rukh. But I won’t like to take the credit alone, because both actors did it out of friendship for Farhan and Ritesh. There is a lot of respect between all of us,” she added.
The film has Bollywood as its backdrop with Farhan playing a struggling actor opposite Koknona. “This is the first original story that gives you an insider’s journey of the film industry. A struggler’s experience,” said Ritesh. And here’s another little secret: Aamir shot for the film when he was in the midst of Ghajini and had the tonsured look; so, the consummate actor agreed to wear a wig for Zoya!
