What are some unknown and dark secrets about the life of Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan?

 His name appeared twice in the PANAMA PAPERS.

He used his political influence to ban STARDUST, and the entire press declared that they will boycott the star. On the contrary Bachchan said that he had stopped the press to enter the sets till 1989 but when press covered the coolie issue he thanked them and things got sorted out.

Once he went to meet his father Harivanshrai Bachchan who was admitted in Breach Candy but did not met Mehmood who was admitted on the same floor.

His film INQUILAB and Rajesh Khanna's film AAJ KA MLA RAM AVTAAR were on the same theme.

He used his influence to get his film cleared from Censor Board through Delhi and suceeded in doing so. However both films flopped.

He had a good relationship with Kadar Khan but during his political reign Kadar Khan was told by his colleagues to address him SIR. Amitabh said Kadar Khan that this is politics and if you stand against me I will even speak against you. From that day Kadar Khan maintained distance from Amitabh.

Amitabh is known for using people in his bad times but does not reciprocate the same. Amar Singh is an example.

Just for a small misunderstanding with Mithun he refused to work with him in JAADUGAR and told Prakash Mehra to show him the way out. The role was then played by Aditya Pancholi.

He sent a legal notice to KUMAR Vishwas of AAP PARTY because he recited a few lines of Harivanshrai Bachchan's poem on you tube. Kumar Vishwas sent him a cheque of 32 rupees that he had earned from that content.

What are the darker aspects of being a flight attendant?

  • Flight attendants bear the greatest physical strain. For example, if a flight departs Delhi at 6:00 AM and arrives in London 5.5 hours behind schedule, it will be morning. In other words, it's a daytime flight. Arriving at night creates a long gap in sleep, which disrupts the body's internal clock.
  • Many flight attendants frequently encounter passengers who view them as hired servants, making selfish demands, and behaving arrogantly, wanting to spend time with them. However, flight attendants must behave politely.
  • In many cases, passengers stare or try to harass flight attendants because of their attire. However, flight attendants strive to provide the best possible service by minimizing any distractions to passengers and focusing on courteous service. If the behavior goes too far, flight attendants can file a complaint afterward, and appropriate action will be taken.
  • One major challenge is the drastic change in diet. Becoming a flight attendant means your body has to adapt to the water and food of the cities you land in. As a result, flight attendants often face many problems and frequently get sick.
  • If a passenger dies, only the cabin crew and their testimonies are required to provide a full explanation and testimony, but they may also become involved in legal issues.
  • Often, people try to take advantage of flight attendants, sometimes fighting with them, and sometimes even abusing them. Even if the airline is at fault or the food isn't good, flight attendants must listen, because in a sense, the airline acts as a spokesperson and leader.
  • Flirting with flight attendants has become a common practice, and most people think they can make a move, but you need to understand that they are trained flight attendants, not your maids, and they are there to provide you with the best airline experience, not to put up with your flirting and insults.
  • Whenever you fly with an airline, make sure to receive excellent service from the cabin crew. It will make both you and the cabin crew happy.

What are some dark secrets of Aishwarya Rai? How is she as a person?

Here are some Dark secrets of Aishwarya Rai,

  1. Hot on the heels of their break up she started dating Vivek Oberoi who famously gave her 30 gifts on her 30th birthday.He also called a press conference to report threats and some 41 missed calls from Salman Khan, a move which he later claimed ruined his career and made him an industry outcast. Aishwarya was quoted describing Vivek as “immature.”
  2. A Sri Lankan man by the name of Niroshan Devapriya is claiming to be Aishwarya's alleged former boyfriend.
  3. The grapevines were abuzz with gossip that the Bachchan’s were not at all pleased to see their bahu-to-be making out with Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom 2, which is probably why they steered clear of any kissy face in their next film together – Jodha Akbar.
  4. No one can do glamour like Aishwarya Rai who is known as one of the leading Bollywood divas and former beauty queen. The actress is now the Bachchan bahu but she had purportedly been in a relationship with her father-in-law Big B.
  5. Probably the craziest rumor I’ve heard so far is that she had an affair with Big B. before she married little B. now whichever Bollywood conspiracy theorist came up with this one has got to be one sick puppy. I can believe a lot of things, but I can’t believe that. Eeks.
  6. Remember the SRK-Rani Mukerji starrer Chalte Chalte? Aishwarya Rai was the first choice for the 2003 flick! But Shah Rukh had to replace her with Rani because of Salman Khan. Ash-Sallu's breakup was quite fresh at the time. Apparently, Salman would drive down to the film's set everyday and create havoc. That's when King Khan decided to cast Rani instead. A lot of publications report this to be a fact and not a rumour.
  7. She made her acting debut in Mani Ratnam's 1997 Tamil film Iruvar and had her first Hindi film release in Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya that same year. Mohanlal is her first hero.

Is Parvati the only goddess with a dark complexion?

 Goddess Parvati was named also as Kali after birth by her father Himachala due to her complexion as mentioned in chapter 7 of Parvati Khanda in Shiva Purana.

गतस्तत्र गिरिः प्रीत्या सपुरोहितसद्विजः। ददर्श तनयां तां तु शोभमानां सुवाससा।।6।।

The mountain king accompanied with the priest as well as the Brahmanas went to see the girl who was self illumining.

नीलोत्पलदलश्यामा सुद्युर्ति सुमनोरमाम्। दृष्ट्रा च तादृशीं कन्यां मुमोदातिगिरीश्वरः।।॥7॥

She had the reflection of the blue lotus flowers, looking quite charming with beautiful complexion. The mountain king was immensely pleased by looking at her.

अथो शुभमुहूर्तेऽस्मिन् हिमवान्मुनिभिः सह। नामाकरोत्सुतायास्तु कालीत्यादि सुखप्रदम्॥11॥

Thereafter in the auspicious time, Himacala, in the company of the sages, gave the daughter the pleasant name of Kali.

Later Goddess Parvati did hard penance for Brahma to achieve fair complexion & named as Gauri. Plot was necessary for death of Shumbh Nishumbh by Kaushiki.

What are the darkest secrets of Hema Malini?

 Hema Malini was so beautiful in her heydays that she didn’t ever fall short of her suitors at any point of time.

Two particular popular actors, Jeetendra and Sanjeev Kumar, always wished to marry her at any cost.

Jeetendra flew to Chennai to meet with Hema to propose her for marriage but Hema rejected his proposal.

As for Sanjeev, he wished to marry Hema but the damsel actress turned his proposal down which morally shocked Sanjeev for the rest of his life.

Hema, for her own, wished to get married only to actor Dharmendra Deol.

In her heydays there was no dearth of suitors for Hema. It seems every leading man of those times, married or unmarried, wanted to marry her. But the two heroes who nearly convinced her to do so were Jeetendra and Sanjeev Kumar. Jeetendra even flew down to Chennai with the shaadi ka shagun. She turned him down. As for Sanjeev Kumar, Hema was the only woman he ever wanted to marry. When she turned him down he was devastated. He never recovered. Says Hema, “I don’t know who all wanted to marry me. I only wanted to marry one man.”

Hema was also an actress with immense popularity and a number of superhits at the box office.

In fact, Hema rescued the careers of iconic actors Manoj Kumar and Rajesh Khanna when they were both going through a career slump. She starred with Manoj and Rajesh in the films "Sanyasi" and "Premnagar" respectively and helped to revive the careers of these two iconic actors

 since both the films turned out to be major blockbusters at the box office.

She was considered the only female actor with a solid box office draw. Rescued the careers of iconic leading men. Manoj Kumar and Rajesh Khanna were both going through a career slump when they asked Hemato join them on screen in Sanyasi and Premnagar, respectively. The two actors staged a comeback with these films. “I never looked at who was my co-star except when I was working with Dharamji. Then it was different. Otherwise I was indifferent.”

What is the dark side of Spain as a tourist?

 The dark side is checking what some tourism in Spain really looks like.

The average tourist will be poorly served because employment in the tourist sector is temporary, unstable and precarious. In other words, banana republican tourism in today's Spain narrows the Spanish employees down to people of a banana Republic.

The dark is how Spanish tourism has been designed as:

  1. a monopoly (sex, sand and sun). Even though, this is slowly changing and several surveys show that nowadays sss has gone down a second choice after culture.
  2. Cheap product, in the worst sense of the word.
  3. Monoculture.

The dark is all the effects from this can be seen on tourist areas and the fact that this is expected to be a substitute for industrial development and the diversification of the economy. While this is expected, who really profits from mass tourism in Spain? Foreing airlines, foreign travel's agents and foreign tour operators.

To sum up, a fake monoculture is overwhelmingly sold to tourists in a plastic/cement world, which doesnt have anything to do with the Spanish culture. The excess leads to bad service and poor quality. The product is monothematic, and stereotypically adjusted to what the tourists expect to see: sangría (which nobody drinks on a daily basis, only festivals, etc), flamenco, paella, bla bla bla.

I have never understood why people prefer Magaluf over Burgos, for example.

Burgos

It is an example of a pretty, clean, well organized city. As most Spanish cities, it is also historical with polite locals (not bothered by tourists peeing and vomiting around them) no drunks, no excess, and most importantly quintessentially Spanish too. It is just one of many examples of real Spanish cities not sold to the clichés that mass tourism requires.

Or Salamanca

Or Oviedo

What are some dark secrets of Karishma Kapoor?

 Hmm....Karisma Kapoor. Where should I start from? One of the best actresses Bollywood has ever produced who, despite being from the Kapoor family, worked hard to get to the top. She is majorly known for her work in films such as Andaz Apna Apna, Raja Babu,Coolie No 1,Jeet, Saajan Chale Sasural, Raja Hindustani, Judwaa, Hero No 1,Dil To Pagal Hai, Biwi No 1,Haseena Maan Jaayegi,Hum Saath Saath Hai, Jaanwar,Dulhan Hum Le Jayenge, Fiza, Zubeidaa and Shakti. Along with her successful acting career, her personal life was also of great interest to the media, and rightly so because she was in a relationship with 10 men and also a failed marriage.She was rumored to have an affair with businessman Jeh Wadia and Sanjay Kapoor in her early days in Bollywood.She was also linked to Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn.

She was supposed to marry Akshaye Khanna, but things didn't work out.

She also had an affair with Govinda, since they did 10 films together. It ended soon because Govinda was already a married man.

She got engaged to be married to Abhishek Bachahan, but due to idealistic differences between the Bachahans and the Kapoors,the engagement was called off. Rumors said that she was cheating on Abhishek with Subrata Roy Sahara.

She had a troubled married life with businessman Sanjay Kapur. She later revealed that she was put on sale by her husband on their honeymoon. She was also thrashed by him and his mother regularly.

She then began a relationship with with businessman Sandeep Toshniwal, which ended after a couple of years.

Last but not the least, it seemed that she had deep infatuation feelings for one of her most frequent co-stars who is also a childhood friend of hers. Do you want to know who this person is?

Yes, I mean by what I am saying. If you observe some of her offscreen pictures with him, the way she eyed him was quite noticeable, specially in the 90's. Have a look..

Rumors of them dating each other started doing rounds when they were shooting for Jeet. See the magazine pages below-

These pics from the sets of Judwaa don't seem like that they are photoshoot pics. I mean, who in the world makes such a face during photoshoot like Salman has in these two pics. How lovingly she is clinging to him. She really loved him…

Their camaraderie at the Zee Cine Awards 1998 was also noticeable-

They have performed together at shows many times. In those days, she went on foreign shows only with him-

These pics at the 1999 Filmfare Awards also raised a lot of eyebrows-

The kiss she gave him also surprised many people-

Also her love for him was a bit noticeable on the sets of Biwi No.1-

They also had a lot of fun on the sets of Chal Mere Bhai-

The way she got terribly cozy with him at a concert in Kuwait also showed-

On her wedding, she seemed really unhappy, like “why am I getting married “ type, but when he came, her face lit up and she was really happy. Another thing to be noticed is that her husband was really jealous and uncomfortable in front of him-

This pic when Salman returned after his surgery and she greeted him with a warm hug also is valuable-

Their camaraderie on Dus Ka Dum was also a treat to watch. The all-attitude, arrogant and talkative Kareena was completely sidelined on the show by them. Pics-

The way she behaved with him on the show was an indication that she still loved him, somewhere deep inside…..

They partied together on New Year 2012-

They also went to a party hosted by Mukesh Ambani for Sachin Tendulkar-

Then they had a lot of fun at Arpita's wedding reception-

Her love for him was seen again at a party in 2015-

Also who can forget when she stood by him when he was sentenced in the hit and run case-

This farewell embrace was really warm and adorable-

Then they celebrated Christmas together in the same year-

They again got cozy at TOIFA 2016-

But these pics grabbed my attention because of the way she held his shoulder. It's obvious they are sharing a joke.

Then this selfie at Seema Khan's birthday party-

All said and done, it looks clear that she was clearly in love with him, but never expressed it.
