Missing B-town starlet Laila Khan linked with Lashkar-e-Taiba
Tweet
Along with two family members and friend, she gathered maps, photographs for Lashkar-e-Taiba, which was planning a terror attack in Mumbai
It has come to light that Laila Khan — the Bollywood starlet who has been missing since last year — recced Mumbai in 2011 along with her stepfather, sister and a family friend, and provided maps and photographs from the trip to the Pakistan-based terror outfit Lakhkar-e-Taiba (LeT), which was then planning a terror attack in the city.
The Wafaa actress’s Mitsubishi Outlander was allegedly used to ferry explosives for a bomb blast at the Delhi High Court in September 2011. Laila was accompanied by her sister Azmina Patel, her stepfather Asif Sheikh and her family friend Parvez Iqbal Tak, who allegedly had links with LeT militants.
After supplying the LeT with information on the city of Mumbai, the four received orders from the terror outfit to go to Delhi, to carry out the blast. They then left the city in three separate cars — a Mitsubishi Outlander, a Mahindra Scorpio and a Daewoo Cielo.
They reunited at Laila’s farmhouse in Igatpuri. At Igatpuri, the four met members of the LeT — Dr Wasim, Major Yasin and Major Gulam. After concluding the meeting, they set fire to the bungalow, to destroy documents and all other evidence.
According to sources from the Intelligence Bureau, the four split up at Igatpuri — Tak and Sheikh went on to Delhi in the Mitsubishi Outlander, where they carried out the blast.
They took the vehicle on to Kishtwar in Jammu & Kashmir. The Outlander, with the registration number MH02 AY 7867 was registered under Laila’s name.
Tak was later ordered by the LeT to take the same vehicle back to Mumbai for his next operation — a blast in Mumbai. However, the Intelligence Bureau (IB) tipped off the J&K police that a car carrying explosives was on its way to launch a terror attack in Mumbai.
Based on this tip off, this car was then traced to a garage in Kishtwar, which Tak had rented for Rs 800 a month.
Terror link
Three years ago, Laila had married Munir Khan, a member of the Bangladeshi terror outfit HUJI. It is suspected that it was through him that she came in contact with the LeT. Director Rakesh Sawant, who was working on a project with Laila about three years ago, has also revealed that she would often receive mysterious visitors.
“When I went to Laila’s house for a meeting three years ago regarding my film, I saw a Kashmiri sitting with weapons in her bedroom. I had even gone to Igatpuri to talk to her about my film, where I saw a similar gathering. When I asked Laila about them, she said they were her relatives, ” said Rakesh.
On the run?
Shaikh, who unsuccessfully contested the 2008 Assembly Elections, is absconding at present, but the police have detained his close friend Shakir Hussain for questioning.
The DIG for J&K (Doda-Ramban Range) Gareeb Dass, said, “Laila, along with her sister, and two others had done a recce in Mumbai. As soon as we got the input from the IB, we located the car, which was supposed to carry explosives to Mumbai.
Further investigation is on.” “It is possible that Laila, along with her family might have been killed by the LeT men, as they were carrying crores of money with them, ” added Dass. Who is Laila Khan?
Bollywood starlet Laila Khan went missing along with her family from their Mumbai residence. Her mysterious disappearance left the police puzzled as they were left clueless about Laila’s whereabouts.
Laila Khan aka Sara had debuted opposite Rajesh Khanna in film Wafaa in 2008. A promising film career beckoned her. However, in January, 2011 she seemed to fall off the map along with her mother and three siblings.
Rakhi Sawant’s director brother Rakesh had launched Laila in Wafaa. During a visit to J&K he was informed about Laila’s sudden disappearance by some locals. Rakesh sensed something fishy and reported the matter at the Oshiwara police station.

I've nothing against pornography but I don't I want to be a porn star
Tweet
Actress Tannishtha Chatterjee, who has kept her distance from typical Bollywood potboilers, skin show and the glamourous look, feels the Hindi film industry is not adapting the right elements of western filmmaking.
Several actors like Deepika Padukone, Bipasha Basu and Paoli Dam have recently dared to bare in their movies.
Asked if she is comfortable with the idea of exposing on screen, Tannishtha told: "I have nothing against pornography. Personally, I don't think I want to be a porn star."
"But anywhere in a literate world in a cultured society, that is an alternative culture existing. Unfortunately, we are embracing the trash of the west and that's very sad."
She says ignoring skin show is not the solution.
"I am not saying that pornography does not need to exist. It has its own space, but I think you should make serious stuff for the mainstream," she added. However, she is very happy in her own space with projects like British film "Brick Lane" and Indian films "Road, Movie" and her next, Mangesh Hadawale's "Dekh Indian Circus".
She is glad that alternate cinema is now being appreciated by the country's audience.
"I am very happy here. I think more interesting stuff is happening in this space and in the last two years, we need to question what is commercial because a lot of what we call 'other kind of cinema' is embraced and appreciated by our younger audiences," Tannishtha said.
"Big examples are 'Paan Singh Tomar' and 'Vicky Donor' -- none of them is in the cliched Bollywood space. But people loved them despite the fact that there were no big promotions," she added.

Sex, Sunny and Sri Lanka

Pooja Bhatt talks about her film 'Jism 2' shoot update, Sunny Leone and all the sex talk on the sets
Pooja Bhatt talks about her 'Jism 2'shoot update from Sri Lanka, Sunny Leone and all the sex talk on the sets Ever since Pooja Bhatt decided to come out with the sequel of Jism, there has been a lot of buzz about the film and its cast. The latest news we hear is that the film is being preponed by a week.
Speaking exclusively to us from Sri Lanka, Pooja Bhatt confirms the news while adding, “The release date of the film was August 3, but after seeing the film’s rushes, my distributors want me to bring out the film in advance. In fact, my music company is also very gung-ho about the tracks. However, I’m prepared. ”
Sunny days
Just six days away from wrapping her shoot, Pooja is quite satisfied with the way the film has progressed so far.
About rumours that adult star Sunny was actually quite shy while filming some of the intimate scenes, Pooja clarifies, “Why can’t an actor in reality be different from the person he/she portrays on screen?
There is a certain difference between having sex and making love. The role that Sunny is playing is very complicated, which even a seasoned actress would think twice before taking up.”
Pooja also claims that Sunny’s language skills have improved over time. Pooja points out, “When we went to her with the film, we knew the kind of limitations she would come with. Today her Hindi has improved a lot from where she began.”
Daddy dearest
Pappa’s girl Pooja has also had to counter with the pressure of the constant presence of her father Mahesh Bhatt on the sets.
Pooja however laughs and says, “He is always present for all our films. He loves the energy and is very inspiring. What is there to get intimidated about? In fact I want to surround myself with people from whom I can learn.”All in all, Pooja’s quite a content lady. Particularly because, apart from Sunny, she also has plans around her hotties Randeep Hooda and Arunoday Singh.
The director quips, “I’m a lady and how can I forget the rest of the ladies of our country? In our country we don’t present men beautifully but that would not be the case in our film.”
