[h=3]Sorry Deepika, Priyanka Chopra takes the cake in Bajirao Mastani's 'Pinga' - Firstpost[/h]Arguably, one of the more exciting things about Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas was the dance-off between Aishwarya Rai (Bachchan) and Madhuri Dixit in the catchy 'Dola Re'. That was in 2002; 13 years later, the prospect of another dance-off, between Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone in Bhansali's upcoming Bajirao Mastani, is equally exciting if not more. There are far more similarities between 'Dola Re' and 'Pinga', the lavani number that Priyanka and Deepika dance off to, than differences (the song is being marketed as a lavani dance off, and melody has been lifted directly from the famous marathi lavani song, Latpat, Latpat). First of all, both actors wear the same clothes in both songs

[h=3]Pay attention 007: In India, you can kill - but don't kiss[/h]By Shilpa Jamkhandikar MUMBAI (Reuters) - If the Indian censors have their way, James Bond can make liberal use of his licence to kill. The latest installment of the 007 franchise, "Spectre", will be released on Friday with heavy cuts after censors deemed the romantic encounters between Daniel Craig, and co-stars Monica Belluci and Lea Seydoux, inappropriate for the viewing public. "The studio either had the choice to accept the cuts or apply for an A certificate, which significantly cuts down reach and exhibition." The Censor Board is controlled by India's nationalist government and has turned a disapproving eye on films with steamy sex scenes.
