Ritika Kumar | New Delhi, Apr 24 (PTI) Bollywood heartthrob John Abraham is all set to venture into international cinema with gangster flick 'American Empire'. Abraham, who earlier earned rave reviews in the Deepa Mehta's Oscar nominated film 'Water', is currently reading the script of the film.
"I am pretty excited about the film. Right now I am reading the script and dwelling into the details of my character. I am really glad to be a part of it," Abraham told PTI. He was in the city to judge Castrol Power-1 passion hunt.
The actor, however, did not disclose much about his role in the film which reportedly revolves around young woman and her hitman boyfriend.
The gangster drama will be directed by Director Andy Armstrong, who last made TV series 'The New Adventures of Robin Hood'. Armstrong will portray a bizarre picture of underworld with eccentric characters, angst and violence.
The 36-year-old actor, who is riding high on the success of gay-comedy 'Dostana, hopes that the sequel of the film will also charm the audiences.
But Abraham did not confirm whether he would be a part of the sequel.
"Dostana-2 is definitely on. I really can't confirm if I am a part of it but I am hoping for the best," the actor said. PTI
Hugh Jackman responds to gay rumours
Los Angeles, Apr 24 (PTI) 'X-Men' star Hugh Jackman has said that he is not fazed by the circulating rumours which claim that he is gay.
The Australian actor who recently got his own star on the 'Hollywood Walk Of Fame' said that if he denied the reports he would imply that homosexuality is a shameful tendency, reported Los Angeles Times.
"I'd be happy to go and deny it, because I'm not. But by denying it, I'm saying there is something shameful about it, and there isn't anything shameful," said the 41-year-old actor.
The actor, who was voted "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine last year, has been surrounded by the rumours after he played flamboyantly gay singer-songwriter Peter Allen on Broadway.
"The questions about sexuality I find more here in America than anywhere else, because it's a big hang-up and defines what people think about themselves and others," said the actor who is married to actress Deborah Lee Furness. PTI
Rihanna is back with Chris Brown: report
Chicago, Apr 24 (PTI) In a fresh development in the Rihanna-Chris Brown story, latest reports reveal that the estranged couple have rekindled their romance and are now living together.
While Brown hasn't "officially" moved in with Rihanna, they have spent "quite a few nights together," reported Chicago Sun Times quoting a source who is a longtime family friend of the 21-year-old "Umbrella" singer's family.
The couple are trying to keep the reunion a secret as the move is expected to cause controversy. Brown, 19 is facing felony charges for allegedly assaulting Rihanna during a fracas that occurred on the eve of the Grammy awards, in February.
The couple had reconciled just three weeks after the incident, but Rihanna decided to give their relationship "a break" after their reunion was met with a public outcry.
Brown faces possible prison time if the charges are proved true.
However, it seems that his constant entreaties for forgiveness have moved Rihanna, despite the fact that her family and professional associates, including Oprah Winfrey, Jay-Z and Kanye West had urged her not to take back Brown, reported the newspaper.
"Unfortunately, Rihanna still wants him and has told all of us to 'get over yourselves... I'm with him, so deal with it." the source told the newspaper.
The report comes after the "Disturbia" singer's representative denied claims that she was dating basketball player Andrew Bynum. PTI
