I Want To Adopt A Girl: Rajeev Khandelwal

Television heartthrob Rajeev Khandelwal, who wowed critics and audiences in Aamir, has a new woman in his life and says he would love to father a baby girl whenever he settles down in life.

"I love families and kids. I would love to be a father and carry my daughter on my shoulders when I go for work. I love baby girls," Rajeev, who is returning to the small screen as a reality show host, said.

Currently he is doing his bit to fulfil his desire by sponsoring a girl child.

"If given a choice, I would love to adopt a girl. But it's a great feeling to even sponsor and support a girl child - it's as good as being a father to her," he said in the interview.

Rajeev, who was earlier in a relationship with actress Aamna Shariff, his co-star on hit daily soap Kahiin Toh Hoga, admits that he now has someone special in his life.

"Yes, I am seeing someone right now. But she is not from the industry," he said, refusing to reveal her name.

He, however, stressed that marriage was not on the cards for him any time soon.

"I've always intended to settle down with every girl I have dated in my life. But I have left it (marriage) on life. Whenever life pushes me into that direction, I will do it," he said.

Rajeev said he decided to make a comeback on the small screen to host the new reality show Sach Ka Saamna because it dealt with emotions of everyday life and presented people who could own up to the truth fearlessly.

Sach Ka Saamna, the Indian version of internationally known show Moment of Truth, will reward contestants for their courage to speak the truth about their personal lives on national television. The format and the content of the show is what drew Rajeev to the show.

"I could relate to the questions asked in the show. They are somewhere related to every person's life. That was one reason I agreed to the show besides the fact that it applauds those who can own up to the truth not fearing the consequences," he said.

Apart from the show Rajeev has a few Bollywood projects lined up too - British filmmaker John Owen's Peter Gaya Kaam Se and Saurabh Narang's Return Gift.

Rajeev had won the hearts of many women during his first stint on TV and the list only got longer after he entered Bollywood. The actor says he absolutely loves the adulation he receives from his female fans, though it is "difficult to stay grounded" at all times.

"There are lots of women who make me feel special. But I have always known it's not for me but for the characters I play. It's not that I'm a great looker, a great speaker or a great actor - but somehow I'm told that you are liked by the fairer sex and it gives me joy.

"I love it when any woman looks at me, smiles and I know it is genuine. It feels good. Imagine 10 women looking at you when you go in the lift - it becomes very difficult for me to stay grounded in such situations," Rajeev said.

In fact his fans have given him so much love by way of gifts that the actor didn't have to buy a single object to decorate his living room.

"My house is loaded. My living room has been done up by my fans. It's like an Archies Gallery - full of teddy bears, souvenirs and statues of gods. Though I don't believe in god, my house has about 85 statues of Ganesha. People have been extremely kind to me," he said.

Couples & Married

We asked our users to tell us what they felt to be the most important key to a successful relationship. Below are a few of the responses:

1. "Dialogue. As soon as it is present, everything is possible." -Paceline Jean


2. "I think the most important key to a successful relationship is when you truly enjoy each other's company." -Anne Engle


3. "I think the key to a successful relationship is to love them with all your heart, and to always show them that you do. And of course to always be honest!" -Kathy Wierzbicki


4. "Trust, good communication and a lasting friendship. I have been married to the same man for 19 years. We have survived infidelity, separation, financial woes, illnesses, etc. Through it all we managed to trust each other enough to be honest and truthful about our infidelity by communicating peacefully. When we both thought that the love was gone, we found a rare and beautiful friendship in each other, which held the marriage together. Today, we are very happy as a family with three children." -Jan Vega


5. "Commitment is the greatest key to a successful relationship. If you are committed you will always find a way to work things out." -Anonymous


6. "I think it is friendship! You can love someone like that and still be best friends and it's the best. Plus if they are your best friend, can't best friends stay best friends forever? If you just love someone for their physical aspects, there's no friendship or similarities between you except that." -Alane


7. "Passion. Without feeling passionately towards your mate the communication, sex, intimacy, and ultimate closeness will not be there, which in turn leaves each partner wanting/needing more from the relationship than they are getting. I know because I've lived it. My husband and I had everything. Money, companionship, friends, a home, great jobs, but we didn't have passion. We were basically friends. Friends are just that friends... husbands or wives should be in love and life partners... that doesn't happen without feeling passion for the other person." -Laura


8. "Communication... talking and open honest communication about how you feel. What makes you happy and what upsets you. If you don't tell your partner then they can't do what makes you happy and vice versa." -Greg


9. "The way a person treats his/her parents reveals how they WILL treat you! If it's with love, kindness and respect, then this is what you will receive. But if it's with criticism, defensiveness and disrespect, then this too you will receive... EVENTUALLY... it's almost certainly a guarantee! So watch and listen to the answers you get in their actions and words BEFORE you jump into bed!" -deb


10. "Communication. In many instances, 'communication' can be used in place of 'relationship'. If you withhold something from your spouse or lie to them, the communication (or relationship) has ended. If you chose not to be truthful, because you're afraid they may leave or be upset, you've got nothing to lose -- the relationship is already over. You may continue to go through life together, but you'll never have a 'relationship'." -Eric Hill


11. "I feel that a relationship should always be based upon honesty and acceptance. When you can fully accept yourself, honesty will come naturally. This in return will leave your partner feeling comfortable with you, knowing there is nothing to hide. If two people can see each other in full view with complete acceptance, they can build a successful relationship from this." -Sarah


12. "I believe that the most important 'key' to a successful relationship would have to be 'trust'. I believe that with trust, love will follow. However, what I have noticed is that many people think trust, or expect that trust is to be earned by the other person, when in all actuality it is something that comes from within yourself. All too many times people will say they don't trust due to past experiences. What they don't realize is that they have built up those proverbial walls to protect them from the very thing they are searching for... yes, there is a risk in trusting someone, but when you finally find that 'right' person, it makes all the past experiences and lessons learned very much worth the risk. All of life's little lessons do not have to be painful... even when they seem so at the time. You just have to chalk it up to experience and move on. Nothing is worth closing your heart. Nothing is worth living in a world of fearing what bad 'may' come to you. Without trust, you close your heart to the happiness and joy that true love brings. It's only my experience... and it's what I believe has given me the wonderful gift of 'true' love. It's a hard thing to do, a scary thing, but very much worth it. This is not to go without saying that some people may betray your trust... that's the risk... but why allow past betrayals to prolong the pain by building a fortress around your heart that not only protects you from pain/betrayal, but also denies you the ability to experience happiness and joy? Most have been hurt enough by one person, why allow them and their actions to stop us from finding what we search for? I say open your hearts to trust and bask in the beauty, happiness, and joy, of the true love that will follow. For everyone there IS a someone, you just can't find them if you hide away all your life..." -Adrienne


13. "Not expecting your partner to think and react to things the way you do. Resolving any conflict in your relationship depends on this. It's important to respect your partner's feelings, even if they are different from your own. If you and your partner both do this you can usually resolve bad situations, even if you still don't see eye to eye at the end." -Yolanda Iniguez


14. "The most important 'key' to a relationship is not worrying about how long it will last, when it will or won't end, and enjoying every moment possible together." -Kathy


15. "The key is to be understanding. Nobody can change their personality, so we simply have to try to understand each other as we become closer." -Lauren


16. "Always showing you love each other all the time by celebrating on different occasions like the first time you met each other." -Darnell James


17. "Validating your partner's feelings. It's so important to be heard in a relationship even if you do not agree with what is being said." -Robin


18. "Friendship is most important in any relationship. I feel that if you can't be friends first what chance do you have at being lovers? With friendship you have to have trust and respect. You have to like the person you're friends with to get along together. Once that is accomplished falling in love with them is just an extension of friendship, only stronger and better. Like the foundation of a brick house, love must also have a foundation. That foundation is friendship. You must have a strong foundation (friendship) in order for love to withstand the test of time." -zanfair


19. "The most important key to success is making sure you call the person you care about or love, and be there whenever he/she needs you. Just care for that person with all your might." -Eva


20. "Quality time spent together, pillow talk, one on one, being open about everything." -deanna

Indians And Pakistanis, Are The Same: SRK

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan pitched for greater harmony among South Asian people as he accepted an honorary doctorate from a British university, saying governments were best left to their own "agendas".

"We belong to - I know it's a bit of a cliche but - one world. Specifically I think, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka all of us, we're the same. I really believe we are the same," Khan told journalists after being made honorary Doctor of Arts by Bedfordshire University.

The doctorate in recognition of his "exceptional achievement as a film actor and producer", was proposed by an Indian NGO called Routes 2 Roots, which works to bring South Asians together.

"My mother is from Hyderabad in India and father is from Peshawar (in Pakistan). So I do believe in this (cultural unity).

"Especially when you come away from India or Pakistan you realise there is no Indian or Pakistani, we're all together. We are - culturally, as human beings, as friends. These are the aspects that keep us together.

"As far as the (government) agendas are concerned, let them go on."

Invited by a Pakistani journalist to visit Pakistan, said: "I also do wish to go there - my family's there."

Earlier, in his acceptance speech, Khan said he was inspired by the doctorate to work for the education of poor children in India.

"While this honour is bestowed on me, I wonder if the deserving but poor and underprivileged children from India can also pursue their higher education in such universities and maybe earn a doctorate as well.

"This thought has been weighing heavily on my mind and I am hopeful that I would be able to contribute to this cause in the future," he added.

India Is Worst Terror Victim, Must Help It: John Kerry

Washington, July 08: The US, it seems, has finally seen what we have experienced over two decades. Noting that no nation has suffered more from terrorism than India, Senator John Kerry has demanded that Washington should extend all assistance to it tackle the menace.

"First, we have to help India break with the perilous politics of South Asia's past," said Senator John Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Tuesday at the confirmation hearing of Tim Roemer as the new US ambassador to India.

The noting comes on a day that for the first time in history, Pakistan accepted it had nurtured terrorists.

“Let us be truthful to ourselves and make a candid admission of the realities. Militancy and extremism emerged on the national scene and challenged the state not because the civil bureaucracy was weakened and demoralised, but because they were deliberately created and nurtured as a policy to achieve some short-term tactical objectives,” The Daily Times quoted President Asif Ali Zardari, as saying.

"India needs no lectures. Virtually no nation has suffered more from terrorism than India, he said. "South Asia is also a volatile nuclear flashpoint."

That said, Kerry has played a major role in tripling US aid to Pakistan to fight terrorists. Those funds, recent Pentagon reports suggested, had been diverted to arming the Pak Army against India.

The recently passed Kerry-Lugar bill to triple US non-military aid to Pakistan to recast US relationship with Islamabad, "wll help us to secure the long-term safety not only of the US and Pakistan, but of India as well," Kerry said.

Kerry, a former Democratic presidential candidate who visited India shortly after the Mumbai terror attacks, said: "I know the volatility that was felt then. But the degree to which there is still an excessive focus on India-Pakistan border issues is really almost an anachronism in today's world. And we need to work to move beyond that."

If confirmed, Roemer will be representing US at an exciting and potentially pivotal moment in US-India relations, he said "the Obama administration has a genuine opportunity to forge a true strategic US-India partnership, not as a threat or counterweight against any other nation but based on shared interests and shared values."

"If we get this right, it will benefit not only our nations but also the region and the world. There are many areas where we can make real progress," Kerry said.

He and several other senators had supported a civilian-nuclear deal with India, in part because it will help India grow its economy with clean energy, he said. "I hope this will now open the door to greater cooperation on non-proliferation."

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Kerry said, "will be carrying a message of friendship, to India, during her visit later this month to engage with India's newly re-elected leadership."

Lalgarh operation continues, 4 More Bodies Recovered

Kolkata: The West Bengal police on Thursday began an operation to reclaim the areas in West Bengal's Lalgarh captured by the Maoists since Monday even as four more bodies of communist supporters were recovered, taking the toll to 10 in the past week.

"The operation by state police has started in Lalgarh. The paramilitary forces would move in soon," said Kuldip Singh, IG (Western Range), over phone.

While the police began their much awaited operation, the villagers backed by Maoists started digging up roads and cutting trees to stop the movement of securitymen in Lalgarh, about 170 km from here.

Meanwhile, Midnapore West Superintendent of Police Manoj Kumar Varma said four more bodies of abducted CPM men were recovered from Goaltore near Lalgarh on Thursday morning.

Exclusive! Hamlet and the Naxals

On Wednesday, assailants riding motorbikes raided the villages and killed three CPI(M)leaders, including a functionary of its student wing SFI, in Jhargram in the same district. The victims were all part of a village resistance group helping the police.

Earlier the Maoists killed three CPI-M activists.

TV footage in the past few days showed CPI-M leaders` houses set on fire in Lalgarh and villagers led by Maoists demolishing their houses, seen as symbols of corruption indulged by the communists.

West Bengal chief secretary Ashok Mohan Chakraborty on Thursday said villagers, especially women and children, are being used as shield by the Maoists.

"This is inhuman and dangerous. The women are being dragged into this terror acts. I am warning those doing these action through media. The local women, villagers are not associated with this. I warn the rebels not to use them as shields," he said.

Union Home Minister P Chidambaram on Wednesday said that the Centre had dispatched enough paramilitary forces to the troubled areas.

West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee will meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in New Delhi on Friday to discuss the Lalgarh situation.

While JSW Steel, India`s third largest producer of the alloy setting up a plant in nearby Salboni, said they were waiting and watching the situation, the industrialists were worried.




``The government should have in place a systematic plan to cope with the situation,`` said Mukul Somany, the eastern region chairman of Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).

``If the situation persists for over a month it would impact industrialisation in the state already slowed down by recession,`` he said.

Noted economist Abhirup Sarkar said the incidents would affect the state badly.

``The communists did not want to leave industrialisation of the state to free market forces to ensure benefits of the rain seeking classes in the party, and now they are trapped in the process with growing unrest,`` said Sarkar, an economist at the Indian Statistical Institute.

``The state government should have ideally restricted itself to the role of a facilitator by building infrastructure,`` he said.

Lalgarh, which is only three hours' drive from state capital Kolkata, has turned into a free zone after the police fled the region, leaving the rebels to torch their empty camps and offices of the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M), the largest party in the state`s left coalition government.

A rebel leader in charge of the Lalgarh area in a telephonic interview to a local TV channel on Wednesday said they would strive to defeat ``half-feudal, half-colonial`` style of functioning in India.

``We want to set up democracy in true sense and fight the state terror unleashed by the forces like CPI-M,`` Maoist leader Bikash told Star Ananda channel.

``We don`t believe in killing. We only avenge the violence,`` he said.

The Maoist leader, who shocked the authorities by holding a press conference openly with his back to the TV cameras on Monday, admitted their aborted plans to kill West Bengal’s chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee.

``People want his hanging. We are only acting as midwives to let out the anger of the people,`` he said.

Cold Play Between Shweta Tiwari & Cezanne Khan

Mumbai: It seems the cold-war between Shweta Tiwari and Cezanne Khan is not over yet. The lead actors, who rose to fame with their stint in Balaji's successful show Kasauti Zindagi Kay, shared cold vibes on the sets of the show. It continued even after the show was over. Now, Shweta has done a cameo in the TV adaptation of Seeta Aur Geeta, in which Cezanne plays a pivotal role. Needless to say, the audience wouldn't see Shweta and Cezanne in the same frame.Shweta Tiwari
A source says, "When the production house approached shweta for making an appearance in the show, she made sure that she wouldn't be sharing the same screen-space with Cezanne. Now, she has completed the shoot and Cezanne is nowhere in the picture."
The cameo role is for a dream sequence where Shweta plays the girl Raka (Gaurav Dixit) wants in his life.
Producer Sunil Bohra says, "Yes, Shweta has shot for our show. When we approached Shweta, wetold her that her scenes are with Gaurav Dixit, the second hero of the show. She would be playing the dream girl of his life and her scenes would be only with him She really liked the character and gave her nod."
He further adds, "We are very happy to have her in the show considering the fact that, she doesn't do cameos in shows usually. She agreed only because making a TV show out of film is such a rare phenomenon in our country."
But what about her making sure that Cezanne is not in the picture? "I don't know about all that. All I know is that she has shot separately with Gaurav Dixit. Cezanne is yet to shoot with us," he ends.
Despite repeated attempts, Shweta was not available for comment.
