Anushka Shetty’s Size Zero, which was supposed to hit the theatres on Nov 27, might be postponed. With Ravi Teja’s Bengal Tiger too slated for release on same day, makers of Size Zero are mulling over to defer the film.

Given that Bengal Tiger has ensemble star cast like Ravi Teja, Tamanna, Rashi Khanna and movie is being directed by Sampath Nandi, producers of Anushka don’t want to slug it out with it. Apart from Bengal Tiger, another small-ticket film Kumari 21 F is likely to release on same day.

It has nothing to do with government. So I’ll not return my award”. Speaking on the same issue, Bollywood’s King Khan, Shahrukh Khan expressed a different view. “Symbolically I would say yes, I’ll return my award.

But I’ve not won any National Award for acting to return”, says SRK. Maybe SRK will returns something give by the Government, but not those Filmfare, IIFA and Stardust awards.

Jabardasth is a hit television show and it has huge fan following. But there is also talk that it cannot be watched at home with family.Taking a leaf from the show, other reality show hosts too are taking to talking double meaning sentences to increase the TRPs of their shows.

In that order, one can mention Ali, who has a show of his own on a Telugu channel. His show is full of double entendre dialogues and whenever he anchors an awards nite or audio release function, it is a given that his speech is full of double-meaning sentences.

Now, popular television anchor Suma’s show too is following this popular trend. The show has a question and answer format where young boys and girls are invited to the show.

And the questions posed by Suma are such that the answers end up being full of double-meaning answers. First night, spending time in bathroom, affairs, second set-up are common themes and can make even hardcore audiences blush.

Even Suma is rather surprised when such words come up regularly, though the show continues on similar lines regularly.

Looks like sprinkling shows with double-meaning dialogues is the latest method to get TRPs by show-makers.
