HEARD ACCUSES JOHNNY DEPP OF<br />
STALLING DIVORCE<br />
NARGIS FAKHRI LEAVES MUMBAI<br />
AND PRODUCERS HIGH AND DRY<br />
CALVIN HARRIS LIKELY TO COLLABORATE<br />
WITH JENNIFER LOPEZ<br />
Actress Amber Heard<br />
has alleged that her former<br />
husband Johnny<br />
Depp is trying to delay<br />
their divorce by insisting<br />
she sign a non-disclosure<br />
agreement before he submits<br />
financial documents<br />
to the court.<br />
The 30-year-old “Magic<br />
Mike XXL” star made the<br />
accusations in new court<br />
documents, which she<br />
filed on Tuesday, <strong>July</strong> 26,<br />
source said.<br />
In the documents,<br />
Heard’s legal team<br />
claimed that Depp, 53, is<br />
deliberately trying to stop<br />
the progress of divorce<br />
quickly and quietly after<br />
he told the actress there<br />
would be a USD 100,000<br />
fine for every time any financial<br />
information was<br />
leaked.<br />
The pair is also reportedly<br />
squabbling on a date<br />
for Heard’s deposition.<br />
His team has suggested<br />
two dates in August, but<br />
GAURI KHAN TURNS DESIGNER FOR<br />
RANBIR KAPOOR’S SWANKY PAD<br />
Superstar Shah Rukh<br />
Khan’s wife Gauri Khan<br />
is a renowned interior<br />
designer and she has designed<br />
several high profile<br />
apartments of celebrities.<br />
Now, Ranbir Kapoor who<br />
recently purchased his<br />
new bachelor pad has decided<br />
to take her help for<br />
designing it into a swanky<br />
house.<br />
Located in suburban<br />
Mumbai, the new apartment<br />
of Ranbir Kapoor is<br />
getting its final touches<br />
under Gauri Khan’s supervision.<br />
Though she<br />
has been busy writing<br />
a book on designing, it<br />
seems that she personally<br />
took time out to complete<br />
the new residence of the<br />
star. It is being said that<br />
Heard said she is unable<br />
to make it because she is<br />
filming “Justice League<br />
Part One” in London.<br />
However, Heard said<br />
she has offered to appear<br />
in court on a Saturday but<br />
Depp’s team isn’t keen.<br />
Documents from<br />
Depp’s lawyer Laura Wasser<br />
claims Heard has already<br />
shared information<br />
about the couple to the<br />
media.<br />
KRITI, SUSHANT FLY TO<br />
MAURITIUS FOR LAST<br />
S<strong>CH</strong>EDULE OF ‘RAABTA’<br />
“Raabta” lead pair Sushant<br />
Singh Rajput and<br />
Kriti Sanon are off to Mauritius<br />
to shoot the last<br />
schedule of the film.<br />
Kriti, who turns 26 on<br />
Wednesday, took to Instagram<br />
to share a picture<br />
from the airport.<br />
“All set for the last<br />
schedule of #Raabta! And<br />
the excitement shows as<br />
we wait to board the flight<br />
to Mauritius.<br />
@sushantsinghrajput<br />
#lastsched #outdoor,” she<br />
Meanwhile, Heard currently<br />
has a temporary<br />
restraining order against<br />
Depp after she claimed<br />
he attacked her with an<br />
iPhone, leaving her with a<br />
bruised eye.<br />
She also said, “during<br />
the entirety of their relationship,<br />
Depp has been<br />
verbally and physically<br />
abusive” to her.<br />
The pair announced<br />
their divorce in May after<br />
just 15 months of marriage.<br />
Ranbir will be shifting to<br />
his new place in October.<br />
From what we hear, she<br />
has been working on this<br />
apartment for the past<br />
few months, of course,<br />
keeping in mind all the<br />
specifications provided<br />
by Ranbir, who is also her<br />
dear friend. It has been<br />
learnt that Ranbir Kapoor<br />
has asked Gauri Khan to<br />
design it as a blend of art<br />
and history, something<br />
that the actor is really<br />
fond of.<br />
Last seen in Tamasha,<br />
Ranbir Kapoor is now<br />
gearing up for his much<br />
delayed film Jagga Jasoos<br />
which also stars his former<br />
girlfriend Katrina<br />
Kaif.<br />
wrote.<br />
The photo features<br />
the actress and Sushant,<br />
30, chilling at the airport<br />
lounge in casual travel attire.<br />
“Raabta” is directed<br />
by Dinesh Vijan and produced<br />
by him, Homi Adajania<br />
and Bhushan Kumar.<br />
The film, which was<br />
delayed due to casting issues,<br />
is slated to hit theaters<br />
on February 12 next<br />
year.<br />
Nargis Fakhri was<br />
missing from Azhar promotions<br />
recently. An insider<br />
said, “While she<br />
promoted a few events,<br />
she completely lost interest<br />
mid-way and two<br />
days ago, left the country.<br />
She flew off to New York,<br />
leaving Azhar, Housefull 3<br />
mid-way and the schedule<br />
of Banjo incomplete. She<br />
has ditched the producers<br />
there, too, leaving them<br />
high and dry.<br />
A source says, “The<br />
Azhar team was stumped<br />
when Nargis told them<br />
she was suffering from an<br />
injury and couldn’t promote<br />
the film. But a friend<br />
of the actress says that she<br />
has had a nervous breakdown<br />
and she had packed<br />
her bags and left for her<br />
hometown (New York<br />
City)! She told her close<br />
friends that she was not in<br />
the state of mind to work<br />
and needed to get out of<br />
the country. She also told<br />
the producers of Banjo<br />
that she would adjust the<br />
dates and will shoot when<br />
she’s back. With 97 per<br />
cent of the film complete<br />
and just some patchwork<br />
left, the producers are<br />
scratching their heads<br />
about what to do.”<br />
The actress simply<br />
told people she needs a<br />
month or two to recover<br />
from the upheaval in her<br />
personal life. An insider<br />
from B-Town says, “Nargis<br />
was all set to announce<br />
her wedding to Uday<br />
Chopra, but he’d changed<br />
his mind about getting<br />
hitched and this came as<br />
a shock to her. There was<br />
a time when he was very<br />
keen to marry her and<br />
had proposed to her, but<br />
she wanted to focus on<br />
her career and Hollywood<br />
films. Now, the tables have<br />
turned. She had a huge<br />
fight with him, suffered a<br />
nervous breakdown and<br />
left almost overnight.”<br />
DEMI LOVATO IS LIKE FAMILY,<br />
JOE JONAS<br />
Singer Joe Jonas has<br />
some really nice things<br />
to say about former girlfriend<br />
Demi Lovato.<br />
The 26-year-old star,<br />
who dated his “Camp<br />
Rock” co-star briefly in<br />
2010, said they are really<br />
good friends, source said<br />
“She’s family. We’ve<br />
known Demi for so many<br />
years. I have performed<br />
with her, toured with her.<br />
She’s just incredible.<br />
“It’s not always the<br />
case. Sometimes you have<br />
to know when to fold the<br />
cards. I don’t think of<br />
her as an ex. We’re really<br />
good friends. We’ve gone<br />
through so much together<br />
and we’re really close<br />
now,” he said.<br />
MY FILM <strong>CH</strong>OICES ARE<br />
ERRATIC: VARUN DHAWAN<br />
Impressing masses as<br />
well as critics with serious<br />
and light-hearted<br />
roles, actor Varun Dhawan<br />
says he is erratic<br />
when it comes to his movie<br />
choices.<br />
“I am quite erratic in<br />
my decisions. I did a ‘Main<br />
Tera Hero’ then ‘Badlapur’<br />
and then suddenly a dance<br />
film, followed by a Rohit<br />
Shetty film. I would want<br />
to dabble through genres<br />
because it is exciting for<br />
me. If I keep repeating the<br />
same genre I would be<br />
bored,” said the actor.<br />
The 29-year-old actor<br />
will next be seen in brother<br />
Rohit Dhawan’s buddy-cop<br />
movie “Dishoom”,<br />
alongside John Abraham<br />
and Jacqueline Fernandez,<br />
which is set to release<br />
this Friday.<br />
It will mark Varun’s<br />
first brush with the action<br />
genre and the actor<br />
considers the film a huge<br />
responsibility.<br />
“’Dishoom’ is a big responsibility,<br />
a big challenge<br />
for me. In terms of<br />
both, being a good film<br />
and a box office success.<br />
Even if you don’t want to<br />
feel (the pressure) some<br />
people make you. I want<br />
to just think if it is a good<br />
film or a bad film. Terming<br />
it in various numbers<br />
is the producer’s job. I am<br />
on the creative side,” he<br />
said.<br />
The “ABCD 2” star<br />
shared that he and his<br />
brother did not bring<br />
their personal relationship<br />
to the sets and Rohit<br />
treated him just like any<br />
other actor.<br />
“On set I am always<br />
hyper, coming with ideas<br />
but Rohit is very well<br />
planned... He doesn’t like<br />
to break away from it.<br />
When we were shooting<br />
in Abu Dhabi, our relationship<br />
was only from<br />
the set to the end of the<br />
day. He was clear he wanted<br />
me to be Junaid and<br />
not his brother on set.”<br />
With both father and<br />
sibling filmmakers, one<br />
would expect career discussions<br />
on the dinner<br />
table, and though Varun<br />
agreed he speaks to his<br />
family about his films the<br />
last call is always his.<br />
“There are talks but<br />
I always take my own<br />
decision and that’s why<br />
they are so erratic. I don’t<br />
follow any set path. I am<br />
quite like the pokemons. I<br />
am always on the run,” he<br />
adds.<br />
DJ Calvin Harris and<br />
singer Jennifer Lopez<br />
have reportedly been in<br />
talks to work on an album<br />
together.<br />
The 32-year-old “This<br />
is What You Came For”<br />
hitmaker recently attended<br />
Lopez’s birthday in Las<br />
Vegas, who turned 47 this<br />
<strong>July</strong>, and allegedly talked<br />
about signing a music deal<br />
during the party.<br />
“Jennifer and Calvin<br />
discussed possible music<br />
collaboration during her<br />
birthday party,” a source<br />
said.<br />
“They discussed the<br />
types of music they both<br />
love. Calvin was excited<br />
to be at the party, hanging<br />
out with Jennifer and<br />
chatting with Benny (Medina),”<br />
the source said.<br />
Meanwhile, Harris<br />
shared a picture of himself<br />
with the American-born<br />
songstress along with the<br />
caption, “Happy birthday<br />
Jennifer Lopez, legendary<br />
icon - and your show in<br />
Vegas is next level.<br />
PRODUCERS NOT SURE ABOUT<br />
‘GOSSIP GIRL’ REVIVAL<br />
The makers of “Gossip<br />
Girl”, which launched the<br />
careers of Blake Lively,<br />
Leighton Meester and Ed<br />
Westwick, are not sure<br />
about reviving the show<br />
again.<br />
Some of the popular TV<br />
shows like “Full House”<br />
and “Gilmore Girls” are<br />
currently being revived.<br />
When asked whether<br />
they were considering<br />
something similar for the<br />
fans of “Gossip Girl”, executive<br />
producers Josh<br />
Schwartz and Stephanie<br />
Savage said they have<br />
not really thought about<br />
rebooting the hit series,<br />
which ran for six seasons,<br />
source said.<br />
“We haven’t really explored<br />
some of those conversations.<br />
Maybe, I don’t know.<br />
We haven’t really thought<br />
about it.”<br />
Schwartz, however,<br />
said “the Internet has<br />
changed” so much that it<br />
would be interesting to<br />
see “Gossip Girl” in the era<br />
of Snapchat, Instagram<br />
and other current social<br />
media apps.<br />
“The world has become<br />
Gossip Girl now,”<br />
he said, adding that when<br />
Cecily von Ziegesar first<br />
wrote the book series the<br />
TV show was based on,<br />
phones didn’t even have<br />
cameras on them yet,<br />
“And now literally everyone<br />
is Gossip Girl.<br />
ARIANA GRANDE, RICKY ALVAREZ<br />
PART WAYS<br />
Singer Ariana Grande<br />
and Rickey Alvarez have<br />
called it quits after a year.<br />
The 23-year-old “Dangerous<br />
Woman” hitmaker<br />
is “happy to be single,”<br />
source said.<br />
“She broke up with him.<br />
He didn’t cheat or anything,<br />
they just found it<br />
difficult to make it work.<br />
They are still friends<br />
though,” a source added.<br />
Grande and the<br />
25-year-old backup dancer<br />
were first linked last<br />
summer, after they were<br />
seen making out.<br />
The singer recently<br />
deleted all of her photos<br />
with Alvarez from her Instagram<br />
account.<br />
WASTE OF TIME TO SAY ANYTHING:<br />
ADITI ON LINK-UP<br />
Mumbai: Actress Aditi<br />
Rao Hydari feels reacting<br />
to link-up rumours is<br />
a waste of time and says<br />
there is no point talking<br />
about it as people will<br />
still have something or<br />
the other to comment on<br />
them.<br />
Since the time Aditi and<br />
noted actor Farhan Akhtar<br />
acted in BejoyNambiar’s<br />
“Wazir”, there have been<br />
link-up rumours about<br />
them.<br />
“Why should anybody<br />
say anything? It is such<br />
a waste of time. Even if I<br />
say anything, still you will<br />
say ‘she said this’ and use<br />
that. So why keep talking<br />
(about it),” Aditi told,<br />
when asked if it was disheartening<br />
that her linkup<br />
rumours were not dying<br />
down.<br />
There were also speculations<br />
that Aditi and<br />
Farhan’s link-up led to the<br />
latter’s separation from<br />
his wife Adhuna.<br />
The 29-year-old actress<br />
earlier used to get hurt<br />
when her personal life<br />
made headlines, but now<br />
she is not bothered about<br />
it.<br />
