Shahid Kapoor has gifted his mother Neelima Azim a car. Although there were reports of tension between the maa-beta after he chose to do his father's film over hers, they seemed to have now resolved their differences.

Says an insider, "He surprised his mom by buying her a Mercedes. Shahid has been spending a lot of time with Neelima after coming back from his Edinburgh schedule for Mausam. He even showed her the rushes of the film on a DVD, which she liked. He has been hanging out a lot with her and his younger brother Ishaan."

After mending fences with the director, Shahid has been frequenting his Lokhandwala office to convince him to make a sequel.

If all goes well, Shahid Kapoor and Vishal Bhardwaj will team up again for the sequel of their much-acclaimed Kaminey. Earlier, this newspaper had reported that the actor and the director, who had parted ways during the making of Kaminey, have now patched up.

Word on the B-Town street is that after Kaminey, Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor are coming together again in a sequel to Shahid's debut film Ishq Vishk. The original featured Amrita Rao in the lead along with Shaks and was directed by Ken Ghosh.

The Moranis have requested Shahid to join their world tour with Ranbir, Katrina and Priyanka. Will that complete the love quartet?

The Morani brothers want to cash in on the newfound, or shall we say rehashed, “friendship” between Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor (please see our story below). The newest addition on the Rishi Kapoor-Morani world tour, with Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif and (ahem) Priyanka Chopra, may well be Shahid Kapoor.

Can you be spiritual when you're a part of the razzmatazz of showbiz?

Shahid Kapoor and Vishal Bhardwaj, who were at loggerheads during the making of Kaminey over creative differences, are now chummy again

That Shahid Kapoor and filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj had developed creative differences during the making of Kaminey was much written about.

Apparently, the pair had had a serious tiff and was not on talking terms for quite some time after the film. But they have made up now. Shahid and Vishal are all set to work together again.

Shahid Kapoor has made lifelong friends with Sonam Kapoor. Back in Mumbai after a marathon schedule with her in Scotland the first film Shahid wants to catch is Sonam’s I Hate Luv Storys.

Says Shahid, “Yeah I want to see Sonam’s film and all the other films that I’ve missed while I was away.” Shahid’s domestic portrait cannot get any more rosy. He has just returned to Mumbai after a hectic two-month schedule of his father’s film Mausam in Edinburgh, bid his dad adieu for now and headed to his Mom’s place.

A host of Bollywood A-listers to mentor slum children for Shiamak Davar’s directorial debut. It’s payback time, folks.

Shiamak Davar’s directorial debut Naach Meri Jaan Fataa Faat, on slum children appearing for a dance competition, will have an entourage of Bollywood superstars working with him.The process of selecting the slum kids will not be fataa fat though. The ten slum children (between the age of 5 and 18 years), 5 boys and 5 girls, who would be handpicked after a series of auditions, would be handed over to ten superstar mentors for training. Only post this stage will the kids face the camera for Shiamak.

Shahid Kapoor is that one star, who, in his own sweet and boyish ways, won the hearts of millions of cinegoers. With the current day superstar status to his credit, Shahid has definitely come a long way.

No wonder then that he is one of the most sought after stars not just in Bollywood, but also in the ad industry. After having endorsed many leading FMCGs like Pepsi, Levis, Vaseline, Clinic All Clear, VIP luggage... to name a few.

Shahid Kapoor, who idolises Shah Rukh Khan, is always gushing about the Badshah of Bollywood.

It is five months since the two actors shared a podium at an awards night. Yet, Shahid continues to talk about how SRK’s brilliance, his repartee, his larger-than-life stage presence, his thoughtfulness when it comes to dealing with someone younger — in this case himself, etc.

Shahid Kapoor talks about his upcoming films and more with Subhash K Jha.

Badmaash Company is giving you a real badmaash actor's reputation, interfering, bullying, non-co-operating?
Nahin yaar. Why don't you ask the director Parmeet Sethi if there's any truth to all this? We don't argue about ganjis and tee-shirts. We focus on my acting, not on accessories. Of course I do contribute to my films. Even the simplest of moves are turned into disputes. But the limit was when it was reported that me and Vishal Bhardwaj came to blows over Kaminey. Can you imagine me coming to blows with anyone?

His angelic smile was replaced by a snarl and his college boy image took a beating when he did Vishal Bhardwaj's edgy thriller "Kaminey" last year, but Shahid Kapur is not too bothered. All the accolades seem to have made up for it.

After a couple of disappointments at the box- office, the 29-year-old is back with yet another caper film - "Badmaash Company". Kapur spoke to Reuters about the film, how the last year has been for him and about starting to work on his most important project yet.

Shahid Kapoor is in acute pain. Some days back he sprained his neck severely. Rather than rest it out, as suggested by the doctors, Shahid performed impromptu at the IPL finals in Mumbai on Sunday.

And the fact that he danced his way through the acute pain made his condition worse. Interestingly, he was a last-minute addition among the other performers namely A R Rahman and Bipasha Basu. Shahid wasn't really supposed to be performing at the IPL finals.
