GERMAN SUPERMODEL CLAUDIA CIESLA SALMAN KHAN’S LATEST MUSE??






© Flynn Remedios – Futuristic Media Network


Well, well, wanna hear what a little birdie told me on V-Day? Apparently our dear Sallu bhai has a new ‘interest’. And the girl in question is none other than German super model Claudia Ciesla.

According to my birdie sources, Salman met the dashing 5.10 feet beauty at J W Marriott recently and even sent a car to pick her up. Now any journalist, budding actor or producer who has ever tried to get an interview or appointment with Sallu bhai knows how difficult it is, but for the sexy Claudia it was just cake walk or should we say ramp walk for Sallu went out of his way to extend the red carpet to the doe-eyed beauty.

So impressed was Sallu that he even promised her a role in one of his forthcoming films. Now, we wonder what Kats has got to say to that.

Salman was unavailable (to lesser mortals like myself) for comment and in spite of several attempts, we were unable to get thru to Sallu bhai.


According to Wikipedia and her own website, Claudia Ciesla (not Claudia Schiffer please) is a German model, actress, and singer of Polish descent. She grew up in the town of Bukow, Poland. Her father is Polish and her mother is German.


Ciesla started modeling at the age of 15 working for shows involved in fashion and dancing. At the age of 17 she moved to Bamberg, Germany and became an Internet glamour model. Her original stage name is "CClaudia", but she also appears frequently under her real name. She then appeared in print in the German Matador magazine.

She was discovered by the former German Chief Editor, Stefan Gessulat, and appeared in the August 2005 Matador issue as Miss Matador. She has done many glamorous bikini and fashion modeling shoots and her photos have been published on many Internet websites.

The Wiki entry also goes to add that the German newspaper Bild arranged an examination of Ciesla by a plastic surgeon and reported that her breasts (38DD) were entirely natural.

Claudia shot for the German-Indian Film "Ki Jana Pardes" in 2008. In Aug/Sept Claudia shot in Kolkatta playing the role of a German journalist for the Film "10:10" together with award winning filmstar Soumitra Chatterjee and sang the title song of this movie.

Claudia and her Business Manager – the affable and very lovable Greg - were in Mumbai last week to dub for her second Hindi movie titled Karma. She also interacted with media persons and posed for photographs, but refused to comment on her meeting with Salman Khan.


She even did a photo session with Bollywood fashion and couture designer Umair Zafar in exclusive bridal designer wear during her visit to Mumbai.

A close friend of Mahie’s who didn’t want to be named said that Mahie hasn’t eaten for the last 30 hours and is really very upset about the unexpected demise. Bruno was a constant companion and friend to the actress in her tough climb up the Bollywood ladder of success.

WILL SHRADHA SHARMA GO NUDE?









Bollywood actress denies Tamil paper report.


By Sia Jaiswal – FUTURISTIC MEDIA NETWORK

Tollywood rumour mills were abuzz with gossip on Tuesday that the sexy and voluptuous Bollywood damsel Shradha Sharma will be seen in the buff for a forthcoming south film.

According to a newspaper report, the so-called film featuring Shradha is based on Vinod Pandey's Sins (which in turn was based on the 1960's Hollywood movie The Priest's Wife in which Italian director Carlo Ponti cast Sophia Loren as the seductress humorously hankering the priest Marcello Mastroianni) and is set in the picturesque locales of Kerala. It talks about a priest who has an affair with a local woman who is a TV news reporter – allegedly played by Shradha Sharma.

According to the article that appeared on Sunday and carried a photo of Shradha - ostensibly picked up from the internet - Shradha has some very revealing scenes in the film and is completely nude in one frame. The report went on to mention that Shradha had about 40 kissing scenes and about 5 love making scenes and was cast as a nymphomaniac, breaking all records of Mallika Sherawat.

Pandey's Sins which featured Shiney Ahuja as the priest had raised eyebrows and stirred protests in Mumbai and in the South. "At least I am not doing this film. I don't know why the paper printed my photograph," said an angry Shradha. Probably there must be some other actress by that name.

Shradha has already signed on two big banner south films – one in Tamil and the other in Telugu. The report first appeared on a blog which was picked up by some regional and vernacular newspapers in Punjab, Delhi and even a Tamil paper in the South published the snippet. While the northern papers only mentioned the name Shradha Sharma, the Tamil paper also published a photo. Then TV channels in the south began scrolling the news.

Shradha has become an overnight rage due to her sexy and revealing photo shoots. Both Shradha Sharma and her publicist Flynn Remedios have vehemently denied these news reports. "Yes I am doing two south films, but I never said I was going to pose nude in any of them," Shradha retorted. "It may be a case of mistaken identity and Shradha's photograph was wrongly associated with the report," said Flynn Remedios, adding that they were waiting for a copy of the newspaper to decide about defamatory action.

ACTRESS SHRADHA SHARMA VOWS NEVER TO FLY JET AIRWAYS AGAIN


Fires her secretary for booking her on Jetlite


By Frank Franklyn – FUTURISTIC MEDIA NETWORK


The hot, sexy and eye-popping TV and Bollywood actress Shradha Sharma has fired her secretary for booking her on a Jetlite flight from Delhi to Mumbai last week wherein her
belongings worth Rs 3 lakh were stolen by airline loaders.

Her Media Manager and publicist Flynn Remedios confirmed that her secretary Manoj Singh who was handling her bookings and schedule till recently was told to pack his bags, because he disobeyed Shradha’s instructions.

Shradha who literally lives out of her suitcase, given the fact that she is doing two stage shows a week had given standing instructions to her secretary to only book her on either Kingfisher Airlines or Jet Airways. However, Singh went ahead and booked her on the ill-fated Jetlite (formely Sahara Airlines) flight where her baggage, jewellery and cash worth Rs 3 lakh was stolen by some Jetlite employees. Two persons have been arrested by the Palam Airport Police in this case after Shradha registered an FIR. “I would fly Kingfisher Airlines or Jet Airways only because I was assured of their quality of service. Now I have decided not to fly Jet anymore because of the pathetic attitude of their staff,” she said.

Shradha Sharma has vowed never to fly Jet Airways or Jetlite again, says Flynn Remedios. According to Shradha Sharma, “
The police have arrested two Jetlite loaders including the X-Ray machine supervisor who saw the cash and valuables in her bag when her suitcase was being screened and tipped off another loader to break open her bag and steal it. The fact that two employees were arrested and my bag recovered from them proves that Jetlite staffers or employees were involved. My bag, car keys, credit cards and camera has been recovered from the arrested persons. Jetlite should have immediately compensated me for the cash which was stolen, but they haven’t done so. They first denied that anything was amiss, in spite of noting that two kilos was less in my bag when it reached Mumbai airport. Now the involvement of their employees has been proved beyond doubt and the airline should have immediately made good the loss.”

Shradha was to travel to Hyderabad the next day for a stage show. Due to this incident she had to cancel her performance, resulting in an additional loss of Rs. Two lakh for the actress, who has now vowed never to travel by Jet Airways or Jetlite again.

BOLLYWOOD ACTRESS SHRADHA SHARMA REGISTERS FIR AGAINST JETLITE AIRLINE

Actress Shradha Sharma accuses airline Jetlite officials of humiliation and torture

FIR registered against Jetlite loaders for theft of valuables worth Rs 2.6 lakh


By Frank Franklyn –
Futuristic Media Network


Bollywood and TV actress, the glamorous Shradha Sharma has accused economy airline Jetlite (formerly Sahara Airways and now owned by the Jet Airways Group) of humiliation, torture and theft. In a police complaint registered by Shradha Sharma and her manager and publicist Flynn Remedios, Shradha has accused Jetlite staff and loaders of stealing her camera, cash, jewellery and other items like wallet containing credit cards, car keys and house keys.

The FIR No. 62/08 u/s 379 (theft) registered at the Airport Police Station near the domestic air terminal in Mumbai on 22nd November 2008, states that Shradha was returning to Mumbai on Saturday morning via a Jetlite flight S2 0107 from Delhi to Mumbai after a stage performance in Ghaziabad.

Shradha was running a fever due to the climate change and over exertion – she had been rehearsing for two days continuously and had taken ill due to stress. On her flight back from Delhi she was carrying about Rs 1.5 lakh in cash (given to her as professional fees for the stage show), her digital camera/camcorder, new N96 mobile phone and some other items totally valued at approximately Rs 3 lakh.

At Delhi airport while screening her baggage at the X-Ray machine, she told the attendant that she had valuables and money in her handbag and asked him if it was wiser to take it as hand baggage or put it in her suitcase. The attendant immediately responded that she should put the small handbag inside the main bag and that they would seal it in her presence. She did accordingly locking the suitcase and the loaders strapped it and sealed it after affixing the security sticker. Shradha was relieved as she wanted to go to sleep on the flight and didn’t want to have the tension of carrying the cash with her on flight.

Upon landing in Mumbai, at the conveyor belt she noticed that her bag was in tatters. The lock was missing and the zipper was broken. Even the side pocket zippers were open. It was obvious that the imported Marco Polo soft luggage suitcase had been broken into. She immediately checked her bag and found her expensive Cartier handbag – itself worth about Rs 20,000/- was missing and so were her cash and other items.

Shradha who was alone, immediately contacted the first Jetlite assistant she could spot and told him that her bag had been broken and cash was missing. The assistant looked at her from head to toe and immediately muttered to himself in Hindi under his breath and said, “Why do women with lesser clothes have more money.” He also told her that she was probably paying more attention to her clothes than to her belongings.

Shradha who was offended and broke into tears immediately, phoned her manager and publicist Flynn Remedios and another friend who rushed to the airport and reached in about 20 minutes.

Says Flynn Remedios, “Shradha was in tears and crying bitterly when I finally managed to get inside. As per rules non-passengers are not allowed to enter the departure or arrival lounges and the Airport Manager refused to give me a temporary pass even though I explained the situation to him. The CISF guards told me to get a pass from the Duty Manager and he in turn told me to get permission from the CISF. For about 30 minutes, I kept shuttling between the Duty Manager’s cabin and the CISF post. Shradha who was running a very high fever and was fatigued as the stage show had got over only at 2 am the previous night, was about to suffer a complete break down,” he said.

The drama continued for about two hours. Finally, Jetlite officials verified the tampered bag, weighed it and acknowledged in writing that about two kilograms was less. An FIR was registered for theft under section 379. “The police were very co-operative and immediately registered our complaint unlike the Jetlite officials,” said Shradha.

Adds Remedios, who is also a techno-legal professional, “Shradha didn’t tell me about the remarks passed by the male Jetlite staffer immediately or I would have insisted that the police add sections 354 and 509 of the IPC for insulting and outraging the modesty of a woman.” According to Shradha, she was running a very high fever and was completely fatigued. “I was helpless and crying and had lost my precious belongings worth Rs 3 lakh, but the Jetlite duty manager did not even bother to come and meet me for two minutes.” We asked for the duty manager, but were told he is busy and cannot attend to us. We were attended by very junior officials who had no authority to do anything, except weight the bag and make a report,” adds Flynn Remedios.

Jetlite officials are carrying out an internal investigation. The police have called for CCD camera data from Delhi airport as well as the X-Ray images of Shradha’s baggage which will prove that her baggage did contain the cash and valuables and identify the loaders at the X-Ray machine.

However Jetlite officials are trying to pass the blame on to Shradha claiming that she should not have put the cash into her check-in baggage. A Jetlite official even denied that the weight of Shradha’s luggage was less, in spite of having given a written memo.
