Stars Are Shining on South Africa & Vancouver


Bollywood's mega star Sanjay Dutt has quite an influence in South Africa, which is a usual spot for Bollywood movies to be shot.

Well.... for those not in touch with Bollywood....Sanjay Dutt doesn't have a clean criminal record.
He spent about 3 months behind bars in
2007 for possessing illegal weapons.

Despite this fact, President of Durban Chamber of Commerce and Industry Themba Ngcobo said during his visit to India
"He (Sanjay) is bigger than any icon there. He has girls swooning over him and his fan following is bigger than any Hollywood megastar. South Africans just love him. In fact, I am one of his fans myself and I have never missed any of his films, even though I usually see it with subtitles."

Meanwhile, Vancouver is also becoming an ideal spot for Bollywood & Chinese stars to recreate.

According to Vancouver's Online Source, Chinese actors are there because they can avoid media pressure while
coming "to Vancouver to eat, rest, get fresh air, and visit relatives".

Former Miss World Aiswarya Rai & Hrithik Roshan (both starred in blockbuster Jodha Akbar), "enjoyed the North American dishes and views on offer at Bridges on Granville Island and Milestone’s at English Bay."

King Khan, Shahrukh Khan enjoys shopping there.



John Abraham & 3 Deol siblings also break loose at times at Plush at the Plaza of Nations.

A cool place to make your pockets flat :)
