Rajnikanth admitted to best Asian hospital in Singapore

Tamil superstar Rajinikanth has been admitted to Singapore's top hospital, the Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre, according to medical sources.

The 61-year-old actor arrived in Singapore on Saturday with his wife and two daughters after he was discharged from a Chennai hospital where he spent two weeks being treated for respiratory problems.

He is now at the Mount Elizabeth centre which is considered one of the best hospitals in Asia.

However the hospital has refused to comment on Rajinikanth's health saying that it was not obliged to disclose the identity of its patients when they request complete privacy.

After the 'Endhiran' star was discharged from the Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre in Chennai on Friday, the hospital had released a bulletin saying that the actor was "cheerful" and doing well.

Shilpa Shetty's estate taken over by squatter gang

 According to IBN live, A private estate in Britain that is home to a host of celebrities - including Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty - is reportedly being taken over by a gang of squatters.

The celebrity residents of the St. George's Hill community in Weybridge, Surrey, are now being asked to be 'vigilant' following the arrival of the squatters, the Daily Mail reported.

Former residents of the estate include singer Elton John, former Beatle Ringo Starr and Hollywood actress Kate Winslet.

Six squatters reportedly moved into the abandoned three million pound, six-bedroom Woodlawn Cottage on the exclusive estate in April, and claim they were not acting illegally.

The property was reportedly abandoned six years ago and has since become derelict. The squatters say they plan to stay as long as possible.

"It is legal for me to be here. I found the place on Google maps so I came up to have a look and the place was open. The locks had been broken off, no one was living here, it was completely open - so why not?" a squatter named Stefan Cybulski said.

Homeowners now say they want the illegal movers out.

"It does seem pretty extraordinary that the police can't do anything to get these people off the estate," a resident said.

"They have no right to be here, yet the law appears to be on their side - it's completely wrong."

Properties on the estate are worth nearly 10 million pounds.

A security guard is now being employed to keep the property under surveillance. Police have set up extra patrol of the area.

Lindsay Lohan to spend her few days under house arrest in luxury house

The Mean Girls star was there to have an ankle monitor fitted before she began a jail sentence at a luxury beachside villa for parole violation. Lindsay  Lohan returned to jail today but her stay there was only temporary.

Lohan will have to spend 35 days in confinement at the house - longer than the three weeks or less she would have spent in a solitary confinement unit at the jail.

Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner sentenced  Lohan  to 120 days in jail and 480 hours of community service in April after determining the actress took a necklace without permission from a store near her home.

The judge said at a hearing that if Lohan served time under house arrest, she could not leave to whittle down her community service hours at a women's shelter and the county morgue.

Lohan, 24, pleaded no contest earlier this month to misdemeanour grand theft but did not receive additional jail time. The jail term was imposed after Judge Sautner determined Lohan violated her probation in a 2007 drunken driving case.

Luxury home

Lohan's sentence will be spent in a luxury house in Venice, California.

She pays just under $7100 a month in rent for the villa, which features four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a rooftop deck.

Her on-again off-again girlfriend Samantha Ronson, 33, lives right next door.

Lohan has been cast to appear as the wife of John Gotti Jr in a biopic of the infamous New York mob family. Shooting is scheduled to begin later this year.

3D Version of Titanic to release in next year at April 6 2012!!! Wait and watch!!!

James Cameron's cinematic marvel about the sinking of the Titanic is coming back to theaters.

Confirming the previously announced speculation and putting a firm date for when the re-release will take place, it has now been announced that April 6, 2012 will be the fateful day.

2012 is noteworthy because it marks the 100th anniversary of the actual Titanic disaster. For Cameron, it was the perfect opportunity to show that film captured only in 2D can be converted into 3D with the proper care.

Cameron, who has become a spokesperson for the 3D industry after his 2009 flick Avatar became the highest grossing movie in worldwide history, has expressed grave concerns over the 2D-3D conversion processes used in other major blockbuster titles.

Those are becoming fewer and fewer in between, as more studios begin to shoot content in 3D. There was an uneasy transition period where movies that had been locked up and firmed for release decided to cash in on the 3D craze at the last minute.

That, assures, Cameron, is something that won't happen with Titanic.

"There’s a whole generation that’s never seen ‘Titanic’ as it was meant to be seen, on the big screen. And this will be ‘Titanic’ as you’ve never seen it before, digitally re-mastered at 4K and painstakingly converted to 3D. With the emotional power intact and the images more powerful than ever, this will be an epic experience for fans and newcomers alike," said Cameron.

Tamil Super Star Rajni Kant is undergoing Treatment!!! Pray for his better Health

The last few days have not been as good as expected for the Superstar fans. Though the nearest of the Superstar’s kin have made it a point to meet the public and convey that their idol is getting better, there has been a constant and nagging fear in the minds of his many fans across the globe.

Rajni Kant

With the Superstar suffering from pneumonia as well as abdominal issues there were theories beginning to form on the Superstar’s smoking and drinking rituals. But some unconfirmed reports from the medicos’ behalf have put all that to rest. Well, now it looks like the doctors owe the abdominal ailment that the superstar is suffering from to his unsteady food habits.

Rajni Kant

The star, while he was in Mumbai during the world cup finals, seems to have feasted on some no-vegetarian food. Not only that, while in Chennai the superstar is in a habit of hiring a taxi and taking a tour of the city. While doing so he asks the cabbie to stop at roadside food kiosks and enjoys tasting the local flavours. Maybe, these might have also attributed to his abdominal malady.


There are also reports which suggest that Rajini might continue the next course of treatment from Mumbai. Not that Chennai lags behind in medical technology but to put an end to the innumerable number of rumours leaking about the Superstar’s health. A couple of days back a tabloid had reported that he might leave for London for further treatment. Immaterial of whether he leaves to Mumbai or to UK we truly hope the Superstar comes back to Chennai regaining is health.

Rajni Kant

The grapevine also has it that soon a video of Superstar Rajinikanth in the hospital might be released to his perturbed fans. Some sources suggest that the video has the Superstar addressing his fans telling them not to worry and that all is well with his health!

Photographs in White House when Laden was killed!!!

Sometime after midnight last night I Tweeted this: "Can't wait to see White House photographer Pete Souza's behind-the-scenes photos of the past few days' events." Souza has delivered. For the past several years, the White House chief photographer has been chronicling every moment of the Obama Administration. He has unprecedented access to the President and his staff and gets himself into meetings and rooms you'd think he wouldn't ever be allowed. Case in point: Souza was in the Situation Room with President Obama, Vice President Biden, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other senior officials while the mission in Pakistan to take out Osama bin Laden was taking place yesterday. The photo above is truly remarkable — check out the no-BS look on the President's face and Secretary Clinton's expression of near shock at what she's watching. Absolutely awesome. We can only guess that they're watching the mission unfold via a camera mounted on one of the Navy SEAL's helmets. Check out more cool photos from yesterday's events in the White House after the jump.

By the way, one more thing about Souza's photos. He posts a selection of them every day on theWhite House Flickr feed, and perhaps even cooler, every single photo that he and his staff takes are protected pieces of the National Archives. Which means that he's not allowed to delete any photos and the entire collection will be made available to the public following the completion of Obama's presidency. That's pretty amazing.
