Hot & Sizzling Yana Gupta unveils Maxim Calendar 2008

February 1, 2008

On the occasion of its 2nd anniversary celebrations, at one of Delhi’s most happening designer clubs ‘Six Month Story’ at Mehrauli, ‘Maxim’ India’s largest selling premium men’s lifestyle magazine in association with Royal Challenge, launched the most sought after Maxim calendar 2008 in India and introduced Prianca Sharma the winner of the India-Asia title in Miss Maxim International pageant held at Pattaya in November 2007. She will be seen as the face of the Maxim Calendar 2008 which was unveiled by the hot and sizzling bollywood actress Yana Gupta. The calendar has been shot on the exotic beach of Pattaya by the world’s renowned photographer Alan Strutt which features the top 12 Miss Maxim contestants from across all the continents.

The evening was graced by the presence of Mr. Piyush Sharma – CEO & Publisher, Media Transasia India Ltd and Mr. Anup Kutty, Editor, Maxim India, along with Mr. Mr Dirk Bakker, Managing Director, INEX.


Anup Kutty said, ‘Maxim’s now a two year old monster having become the largest selling men’s magazine in India. Which was a good enough reason for the anniversary bash. The MAXIM party is for all those who helped shape the magazine including people who have supported us through our two year rollercoaster ride. It’s also for all those who don’t really care about all this spiel and just want to have a good time! The idea is to wake up the next morning with a terrible hangover but great memories!’

To this adds Piyush Sharma ‘The Maxim calendar is a logical extension of Maxim’s identity of being a premium Lifestyle brand. Internationally it has been the most sought after property of Maxim and now we foresee it to be a huge success in India as well. Maxim India Calendar 2008 would replicate its internationally acclaimed status of ‘THE’ calendar as it is a highly restricted distribution franchise of Maxim and therefore a prized possession for a limited few’.

‘Maxim has redefined success with unmatched popularity discerning India youth within two years of its launch. Royal challenge, iconic youth brand salutes this landmark achievement by Maxim. In their respective segments both Royal Challenge & Maxim have created a unique identity with initiatives in packaging and communication. It is this likeminded approach that has brought us to partner this celebration for MAXIM in India’ says Mr. P S Gill, COO North, United Spirits Limited.

Speaking on Maxim, Dirk Bakker said: ‘It is great to be associated with India’s first men’s Magazine. Maxim has brought something new to India, it pushes the limit and it brings to people what they want, something that INEX also believes in.’

The highlight of the event was the unveiling of the Maxim Calendar 2008 featuring the top 12 contestants of Miss Maxim International amidst a host of celebrities from the world of fashion.It was a lively and boisterous gathering, where guests trooped in to celebrate Maxim’s 2nd anniversary bash. Among the guests present at the party were members of the designer fraternity, celebrities, socialites, models, photographers of the town as well as the expats community in full force. The fun at the party was doubled by Royal Challenge the official sponsors.

RACE Movie first look

January 15, 2008

Race Movie New Tralier
It’s going to be an action packed first quarter of 2008 if upcoming releases are any indication.

While SUNDAY has already created a buzz with its lethal mix of action, comedy and thrills being noticed by one and all, upcoming RACE is all set to take the action genre further with some death defying stunts being the film’s USP.

The film’s first promo is out and boasts of some jaw dropping stunts and action sequences. Mostly set on road with old-fashioned-and-yet-so-much-in-demand car chases being the center of attraction, it has the blasts and toppling of cars setting adrenalin high. Not just this, the film also has horse races and actors jumping from multistoried as added attractions.

With masters-of-suspense-and-thrills, Abbas-Mustan, being at the helm, the film is already generating positive vibes and promises a thrilling beginning to the New Year. Presence of a terrific cast comprising of Anil Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Akshaye Khanna, Bipasha Basu, Katrina Kaif and Sameera Reddy only helps the project further.

TASHAN MOVIE : In style with Akshay & Saif

January 15, 2008

Watch the Tashan Video TRailer Here

Aditya Chopra is so hush-hush about his new movie “Tashan” that he has even ordered the stars of his film to limit their public appearances.

Aditya reportedly wants them to stun the audience with their new looks. It’s said that Saif Ali Khan, who is always game to experimenting, will sport a moustache this time.

Anil Kapoor will don a handlebar moustache, while Akshay kumar will be seen in short hair. Actress Kareena is the busiest shedding kilos to fit into skimpy sexy costumes.

Now, the debatable fact is whether all the stars will follow instructions given by the producer. Saif has already broken free and appeared in a commercial in his new look with sister Soha Ali Khan. Now we need to wait and watch when Akki Baby puts his foot down. Diverse roles give Shah Rukh creative satisfaction.
