bollywood buzz

two of the quote-unquote biggest stars in hindi movies... abhishek bachchan and aishwarya rai... got engaged last night, and it's making news all over the internet. cnn is reporting it on its website, and i've seen it several other places. speculation about the couple, known as abhiwarya, has been everywhere for several months, but it's official now. if you know my taste in desi movies, you know i don't really like ash at all, but i've warmed up to abhishek. his performances in several films have been great, though i don't think he should dance a lot. as for the couple, both of them have shady romantic backgrounds - particularly ash with salman khan - so i'm not sure where this will go. also interesting - apparently, their stars don't match, and so they've visited numerous temples to try to better align their horoscopes. now, i'm a borderline believer in astrology, so let's see.
