Life has never been this bright for Abhishek Bachchan. While the whole country is going ga-ga over his likely marriage plans with sizzling Miss Rai, AB’s baby is busy getting up-close-and-personal with Hollywood’s highest paid actress Nicole Kidman.

We caught Abhishek Bachchan in Geneva, attending a party thrown in by premium watch brand Omega for all its global brand ambassadors. The actor — one of the international brand ambassadors of Omega — shared a cosy corner with Nicole Kidman.

DHOOM 2 is on a record-breaking spree. The first week collections have started pouring in and the results clearly prove that it’s Yash Raj’s biggest opener to date. As of now, this writer has received the collections of four circuits - Mumbai, East Punjab, C.P. Berar and C.I. and the first week figures are out of the world!

Yes, you read it right! Abhishek Bachchan will be playing father to Hrithik Roshan in his upcoming Yashraj project Jhoom Barabar Jhoom. Only this time Hrithik Roshan isn’t a single person but two of them.

Ok let’s clear your confusion. The fact is that Abhishek plays father to twin boys in the film directed by Shaad Ali. And these twin boys are named Hrithik and Roshan.

Since this column is essentially about the international box-office, let’s shed light on the astounding collections in the three major markets - U.K., U.S.A. and Australia.

This only meant that the entire sequence had to be reworked and the song had to be composed again. Ratnam asked Rahman to do the needful.

The very chic Anaita Shroff Adajania clearly found her calling the day she decided to become a stylist.

When you watch Dhoom 2 (and I know you will) check out the individual looks she’s put together for the star cast. In fact some of the more painful slapstick scenes (mostly featuring Bips as a Brazilian bimbette) are rescued only by virtue of her stunning wardrobe. Here’s how to describe (and duplicate) your favorite trendsetter in D:2 according to Anaita:
