A source said, “Aamir will have a small get together at his house, say few reports. The actor is not in mood of celebration due to his father’s death this year.

”While top notch filmmakers in Hindi cinema dream to have Aamir work in their ventures, Hollywood bigwig James Cameron too is very keen to cast the actor in one of his films.The director of two of the path breaking films in the history of cinema, `Titanic` and `Avatar`, Cameron shared the stage with Aamir on March 13 at a conclave in the capital and said that he was honoured to do so.”I am honoured to be sharing the stage with Aamir Khan.

Well, Aamir has always been the best at whatever he does. As the actor enters his 46th year today, Team Spicezee wishes him a very happy birthday!

The stunt season has set in… While we hear several tittle-tattle about heroes jumping into the daredevil acts, here’s yet another actor who will be seen in the rough-tough avatar. Kookie V Gulati’s ‘Prince’ has made its protagonist Vivek Oberoi to try out some risky stunts. The actor who is playing a role that he has not done before said to have jumped from cliff and helicopters. But what is more dangerous is that the actor has jumped off a 65 storey building for a sequence.

And all the while Vivek said to have been thrilled to try them all. One would have awed at the trailer where Vivek and his co-star Aruna Shields together on a bike leaping off the rooftop from one building to another…‘Look before you leap’ goes the saying, and the makers of the film had made sure that the hero was given best of the safety aids.

Well, we hope these risks will make a difference in Vivek’s career…

Aamir Khan, who will be turning 45 on March 14, has desired to work with Amitabh Bachchan. Amitabh had earlier jokingly said that he would work with Aamir, only if Aamir directs the movie. Aamir Khan recently said in an interview, “I have always been a big fan of Amitabh. I have been looking forward to getting the chance to work with him for a number of years now.

So far, the right thing has not come up. I’m hoping that it will happen soon.”The actor further added, “I will be thrilled to direct Amitabh Bahchan. He is a great actor and I would really cherish the chance to do that. But the material has to be right.

It should be something that excites both of us.”Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan have never worked together. It will surely be a huge thing if the two stalwarts come together.

Glamorous actress Deepika Padukone, who has a long history of moving in and out of tumultuous relationships, was seen bonding with none other than Vijay Mallya’s son Siddharth during the day one of Indian Premiere League. The actress, who newly broke up with actor Ranbir Kapoor, was linked with her co-star Farhan Akhtar during the making of ‘Karthik Calling Karrthik’ but now she seems to have bid goodbye to all her former boyfriends.With the Kingfisher scion beside her throughout the evening, the actress had eyes for no one else.

The two seemed indifferent to the world around and conversed with each other throughout the match. According to sources, the two youngsters were so busy with each other that they hardly paid attention to the ongoing match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Deccan Chargers. The lady also chatted with Junior Mallya’s friends and chose to leave the venue with him just minutes into the second half of the match. All we can say is – good catch…err…match lady!

It has been a wonder for the people from the industry as well as fans that even though a majority of Bollywood is on Twitter, Kareena Kapoor continues to evade the microblogging site. At Shahrukh Khan’s press conference for Ra.1, she was asked why she wasn’t tweeting yet.

Kareena expressed that she was still not sure about the whole idea and would need at least another month to settle on an answer. Kareena needs to think about it so carefully because at present she’s too tied up with work to sign up on the site and start using it. Also, she wonders if she will be able to stick by it regularly once she starts it.

Well, let’s give Kareena the time she needs. Maybe we’ll see her on Twitter soon!

Sushmita Sen has apparently got the tattoo done to endorse her non-profitable charity foundation ‘I AM’, which supports in several fields like child welfare, cancer and AIDS research and environmental issues.

Not just Sushmita Sen, the staff of her organisation along with her close friends and family members, have all got permanent `I Am` tattoos on their wrists. Confirming the news, Sushmita said, “There are about 42 of us and counting me, my family, friends, colleagues and some people that I don`t personally know have tattooed `I Am` on their wrists.”  “It`s simply a celebration of our ‘I Am’ quotients. It says each to their own,” the actress added.
