I couldn't see Baba Ramdev starving: Rakhi Sawant
Item girl Rakhi Sawant heaves a sigh of relief that Baba Ramdev has finally broken his annshan. Having declared her love for Baba publically sometime back, Rakhi goes on to add: "I was very hurt that he hadn't eaten anything for six days. And I couldn't see him in that state. I don't want anyone to suffer on our behalf, especially Baba!"
Kursi ki ladai
She may have a soft corner for Baba, but she is forthright enough to add: "I really hope that this annshan of Baba is not a kursi ki ladai. In most of the cases, people just want to grab power through antics like morchas and dharnas. I feel if Baba wanted to do annshan, he shouldn't have involved others, he should have gone solo to keep his fight pure. And imagine the trauma the common people had to face - being stuck in the traffic jam for six hours!"
I cancelled my flight
Rakhi says she had all the plans of participating in Baba's movement in Delhi. "I had booked my flight for Delhi, but when I saw political parties joining the fray, I just cancelled it! I wonder if the movement was being funded by these political parties to create a hugetamasha. It reminded me of Anna Hazare's movement, which ended on a different level," she says.
Anna's team has cheated us
"Anna Hazare is one man, who has never lied or cheated in his life, so I really respect him a lot. But, it broke my heart to know that Anna's movement ended in political lanes. Team Anna has cheated us! I'm sure it is not Anna himself, but those around him, who are trying to take mileage of his popularity," she says.

John’s London dreams
For most actors, crossing over to production has been a relatively rough ride. But for John Abraham, the shift was smoother. And now, the actor is ready to flex some business muscle. Having received a positive overseas response to his maiden production Vicky Donor, John has now decided to open an office in London. And thus, when an opportunity presented itself, he dropped everything and hurried off to the city to finalise a commercial space in Central London, where realty prices have gone up by 10 per cent this year and have been on an upswing since July.
According to a source close to the actor, John had been eyeing not one but a few properties to set up the overseas wing of his production house. "He had an option of leasing the property. But since he is very serious about his business, he decided to invest in the property instead. However, buying office space in London is just the beginning of his bigger plans," added the source.
Perhaps it is John's marketing degree that adds to his business acumen. "He began with doing a thorough research of the London property market. He has been a management student and plans every move systematically. He chose London since as an actor he often travels there. John realised that he would be able to keep a tab on the business this way," the source told TOI.
In fact, as we speak, John is busy finalising the deal. He has also identified people in his team to spearhead the operations there, and a formal annoucnement is expected sometime soon. "John wants to start operations from London in a month," added the source. When we tried to get in touch, John remained unavailable.

The hunk will open a massive gym
John Abraham
John Abraham’s list of credentials seems to be growing by the day: actor, producer and now businessman! He is in talks to open up his gym, JA Fitness in the luxurious Trump Towers in Pune! He is in the final rounds of negotiations which will give him a business address at the Trump Towers.
An Abraham well-wisher says, “John has realised that he has the acumen to be a good businessman. So why not select a field that he knows intimately? He is a big fitness freak and his body is appreciated by both men and women. Opening up a gym at Trump Towers is no mean feat and not many actors have their gyms at such prestigious premises.”
John will personally pick the trainers and equipment for this gym. He will also decide the regimen and sessions that the gym will follow which will be available to all those residing at Trump Towers. He plans to take his brand overseas as well. “John is no longer going to play it small. He wants to stamp his name on the international market as well, something none of his contemporaries have achieved,” says our source.
