Akshay kumar suffering from back problem

Akshay kumar suffering from back problemMumbai, Dec 16 (IANS) Akshay Kumar was forced to cancel his Dubai trip to promote his forthcoming comedy "Tees Maar Khan" because of his chronic back problem.

While wife Twinkle rushed Akshay to the doctors Tuesday afternoon, Akshay's co-star Katrina Kaif left for the Dubai lap of the film's promotion all alone.

Apparently Akshay was insistent that he join Katrina for her trip to Dubai. But Twinkle put her husband under house-arrest, as this was not an isolated back pain.

Akshay first suffered a back problem while doing a stunt sequence in "Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi" in 1996. It confined him to bed rest for almost three months.

Again, Akshay's back trouble recurred last year while shooting for Sajid Khan's "Housefull". He was advised surgery but Akshay opted for water therapy. It took him to Germany and he came back apparently fully cured.

"It was the rigorous travel by plane and cars for the promotion of his new film that caused Akshay's back problem again," said a source.

While the whirlwind tour of Dubai had to be cancelled, Akshay insisted he would leave for the London lap of his promotional tour Tuesday night.

Twinkle confirmed that Akshay was better and that he left for London Tuesday night itself to promote "Tees Maar Khan" there.

Agneepath remake should be a hit: Karan JoharDubai, Dec 16 (IANS) Karan Johar, who is remaking his father Yash Johar's production "Agneepath", says it's his dream to make it a commercial hit this time around.

"My decision to remake 'Agneepath' is purely an emotional one. And I am glad that I am as passionate about the film as my father was. I want to make this film again in memory of my father and I will make sure I get it right commercially," Karan told IANS at the ongoing Dubai International Film Festival, where he was invited for a panel discussion.

"It was a film my father was most proud of. When we were making the film, we all believed it's a film that would redefine our company (Dharma Productions)...It was a commercial failure and it broke my father completely. I don't think he recovered from it ever," the filmmaker said.

In the remake, Hrithik Roshan is playing the iconic Vijay Dinanath Chauhan, played by megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the original version. The role fetched Bachchan a National Award but the film tanked at the box office.

Karan Johar maintains that his sole aim is to attach the 'hit' tag to "Agneepath" this time.

"We will never match the brilliance of Mukul Anand, we will never ever match the brilliance of Mr.Bachchan. We cannot compare to that kind of a genius combination. I hope we will come up with a film 'Agneepath' that at least will have a hit tag attached to it. It's my dream, my endeavour," Karan said.

Socialite Paris Hilton adopts new dogLondon, Dec 17 (IANS) Socialite heiress Paris Hilton, known for her love for dogs, has adopted a new dog from The Animal Foundation shelter in Las Vegas.

"This Chirstmas if you're thinking of getting a dog or cat, get one at your local animal shelter. Save a Life. Don't Shop, Adopt," she tweeted.

Singer Lily Allen wants baby againLondon, Dec 17 (IANS) Singer Lily Allen is undeterred after suffering two miscarriages and will be trying for baby once again in the new year.

"Lily hasn't been in a great place, but she's getting there. It's been a long, hard road. She is in the country with her boyfriend Sam Cooper and doing wholesome things. They're going to start trying (for a baby) in the New Year," said Allen's sister Sarah Owen.

Owen, who runs vintage clothes shop Lucy in Disguise in London with 25-year-old singer, also revealed she found it difficult to comfort her sister in the wake of what happened.

"New Year, new start. Losing the baby has totally devastated her, she's still grieving. I didn't realise the impact something like this could have on someone, and as a sister it's been painful to watch," she said.

Despite the tragedy, Owen says Allen is more determined than ever to fulfill her dream of becoming a mother, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

She said: "Lily won't let this stop her, she is absolutely determined to be a mum. This is what she wants more than anything in the whole wide world, more than her singing career. It's always been her dream."

Allen suffered her first miscarriage in January 2008 when she was dating "Chemical Brothers" star Ed Simons. She lost her second baby with boyfriend Sam Cooper last month.
