I'll never work with Sajid Khan again: Bipasha Basu
Bipasha Basu, who decided to refrain from promoting 'Humshakals' prior to its release, says she won`t work with Sajid Khan, the film`s director, ever again. Bipasha, who was seen as one of the six key characters in the comic film which wasn`t received well, has nothing against the film`s co-producers Vashu Bhagnani and Fox Star Studios. But she is glad she took a stand against promoting 'Humshakals' when it was required. She had said she was "extremely disturbed by the end result" of the film and "didn`t know how to promote the film with all honesty". "I was six minutes into it and I don`t know what I was doing in it," she said of the movie, which also stars Saif Ali Khan, Ram Kapoor, Riteish Deshmukh, Tamannaah Bhatia and Esha Gupta.

WHAT I DO, NEWCOMERS CAN'T: EMRAAN HASHMI
He has kissed almost all his leading ladies on the screen and it has earned him the tag of a serial kisser in Bollywood. Emraan Hashmi says newcomers may be doing it, but they can`t compete with his hours of experience. "Someone asked me that the new kids started doing (kissing) it on screen, but I feel very foolish to say this, but it`s more evolved after years of practice...," said the actor for 'Murder', 'Zeher' and 'Woh Lamhe'. "What I do, these amateurs can`t... I know they mean well, I know they put in their best effort... but I have 1000 hours of experience compared to like 10 hours of theirs," added the 35-year-old.

Zack Snyder to Direct JUSTICE LEAGUE
We're still over two years away from Batman vs. Superman, but Warner Bros. is chomping at the bit to get to Justice League. With the Man of Steel sequel, what began as a pairing of DC's most popular superheroes has grown to include Wonder Woman and even Cyborg, although we don't know how big their roles will be. Warner Bros. president of worldwide production Greg Silverman says that Batman vs. Superman will lead into Justice League, which means that the earliest we'll probably see the famous superhero team on screen is 2018. Beyond Superman (Henry Cavill), Batman (Ben Affleck), and Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Silverman wouldn't specify which superheroes would appear in Justice League. And who will be the visionary behind the Justice League movie? Director Zack Snyder. The sequel to Man of Steel, Batman vs. Superman opens May 6, 2016.

JENNIFER ANISTON: WOMEN NEED TO LET THEMSELVES AGE!
Given the critical climate of Hollywood these days, Jennifer Aniston could very easily succumb to the pressure to look perfect. Jen begins, “These days, if I was being super picky, I would love to drop 5 pounds. That is just where I have always been really comfortable at about 110 to 113 pounds. But it is harder at this age.” “The truth is you just go, 'If they get a picture, that picture comes and goes, so who cares?' Then you have 30 mean people who sit at their computers and spend their entire day picking apart and insulting celebrities about how ugly they are just so they can feel better — I guess — about themselves. I don't understand it.” Additionally, Ms. Aniston has a hard time understanding “this pressure in Hollywood to be ageless. I think what I have been witness to is seeing women trying to stay ageless with what they are doing to themselves. I am grateful to learn from their mistakes, because I am not injecting sh*t into my face.”
