'Lux' is the brand synonymous with beauty and film stars and it has created history by bringing together the most sought couple of Bollywood - Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan together for the first time ever on television in the new 'Lux' commercial.
Talking about her long standing association with Lux, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan said that she have been associated with Lux for past 10 years as a Global Brand Ambassador. Shooting with Abhishek makes this Ad even more special as it's their first commercial together and they had a great time together at shooting. Abhishek Bachchan said, "We are happy and proud of the fact that we have done our first ever commercial for Lux. The script drew me to the commercial and I liked the way Ash and my parts were incorporated - mischievous, soft and fun which brought out the vibes in the relationship that we share." Speaking on the occasion Mr. Sudhanshu Vats, VP, Home Care and Skin Cleansing, HUL said that Lux relaunch promises to give the consumers a never before luxurious bathing experience through a creamier lather leaving their skin soft and smooth and they have made improvements to every element of the mix - product, packaging and fragrance. All of this is being communicated to the consumers through a unique yet distinctly Lux campaign where we have Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan coming together for the very first time in an advertisement. The new Lux AD has been directed by Stephen Mead from the London-based ad film production house Short Films. The Sufi inspired music score has been composed by none other than the melodic trio Shankar Ehsaan Loy. The couple has been designed by leading fashion designer Aki Narula with make-up done by Mickey Contractor. Really one has to use lux at least once !

Twittering : Can It Change The Way One Writes Book, New Technique of Writing a Book : Twittering

A Scottish author has named Peter Urpeth found a rather difficult way to write his new book-by posting each sentence on the micro-blogging website Twitter. He began posting his novel, 'MacKenzie's Issue', on the website, 140 characters a time.
"He was my father, that's all, and I was elsewhere at the time of his passing," The Scotsman quoted the first posting as saying.
And 21 minutes later, he posted the second extract, which said: "I am uncertain of the exact day and date on which he died. On reflection, I am not too sure even of the year. But I know that it was summer."
The novel tells the story of the strange life of the last son of an obscure branch of the Clan MacKenzie and is set on Scotland's northwest coast and in the Outer Hebrides.
Going by the pace of one tweet a day, it could take him close to 14 years to complete the novel, given that the average book is 80,000 words long and there are roughly 16 words per line.
Explaining his decision to tweet his latest book, Urpeth said: "As a novelist, I am intrigued by the opportunities, challenges and limitations the digital world generates, and I want to explore and experience new digital media from the viewpoint of a writer of long fiction."
"My new novel will be written tweet by tweet with an undertaking by me to add at least one new tweet section every day until the end is reached and the archive of tweets will remain accessible so that new readers can catch-up at any time. Normally, as a novelist writing and publishing in the traditional manner, the book would be finished and have gone through countless revisions before being exposed to a readership. This one is published as it is written."
It is new at the point of every tweet, and he also aims to reflect on and respond to feedback from readers. One immediate challenge is to make sentences that have economy, and which work within the limitations of the 140-character maximum.

Though this is not a totally new idea - tweet novels have been posted before, and some have been bought-up and subsequently published in traditional form. So this is also an exploration of digital marketing for writers, and maybe a new way of reading or experiencing fiction, too.

Bipasha Basu is out of Maniratnam's Raavan, Aishwarya in Bipasha out



Maniratnam's latest film Raavan is going through a rough time. Cast problem, crew problem, and weather problem also. His cinematographer Manikandan is ill and opted out of the film. Maniratnam has asked Santosh Siven to take charge. Siven, who made Dil Se for Mani, agreed but on one condition only. He wil reshoot the portion( shoot by Manikandan) he didn't like. The weather is not helping either. Abhishek and Ash went for shooting outdoor but returned at the end of the day without a single shot being taken because of heavy rain. Next, Bipasha Basu is out of the film. Remour is that she is out because otherwise Ash's character is losing importance. Another remour is that she cannot deliver what Mani wanted from her. Bipasha said the matter is amicably settled and all are happy. Well, we certainly don't!

Who is at The Top of Advertisement Industry, Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan- the Premier Couple of Bollywood



Bollywood is full of rumours that golden couple Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan have charged a whopping Rs 25 crore to appear in an ad for a beauty soap that Ash already endorses.
Father-daughter duo Anil and Sonam Kapoor have apparently charged Rs 15 crore for their very first ad together for a pen brand. Advertising gurus, however, have shot down the figures as "impossible" in the current economic situation. Prahlad Kakkar says, "25 crore! Ash charges Rs 4.5 crore for international brands and Rs 2 crore for Indian ones." He adds, "If they're getting Rs 25 crore for an ad, it better be steamy - both need to be in the same bath tub, minimally dressed, and Abhishek needs to wax his chest. The ad should lead to a debate in Parliament and the country should come to halt for a month." Celeb manager Sonu Lakhwani says, "This figure is exaggerated given the state of the ad industry. For a one minute ad, no brand would pay such an amount, no matter who the celebrity is." Though Anil is basking in the glory of Slumdog Millionaire, experts say he still can't get Rs 15 or even 10 crore for an ad, even if paired with his daughter. Sonam charges around Rs 1.5 crore for an ad and even if we add Anil's Slumdog charm, it still wouldn't touch 10 crore. So, everybody keep guessing!
