The Bandra Kurla Complex was buzzing, as Radio Mirchi announced its winners for the finest talent of 2009 in Hindi film music at the awards night. There was palpable excitement on the red carpet as filmmaker Rakesh Roshan came in with superstar son Hrithik Roshan. The Khiladi of Bollywood, Akshay Kumar too had the crowds outside go wild. Vidya Balan looked stunningly demure in a sari while Anil Kapoor came all suited and booted straight from the airport to the venue to give away the award to one of Bollywood’s best lyricists, Prasoon Joshi. Farhan Akhtar and Deepika Padukone presented awards to the new talent in the music world. Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Fardeen Khan also graced the occasion.

From time to time our B-town folks need their ‘escape’. For some of our beauties it could also be a purely ‘retail’ vacation, where all they want to do is sweep everything off the racks at stores. Farhan Akhtar has his quirky escape too.

Hrithik Roshan and Farhan Akhtar celebrated their birthdays together at a posh Juhu lounge on Saturday night. Incidentally, while Farhan was already 36 when the party began, Hrithik reached the mark at the stroke of midnight.

Duggu, who arrived looking a bit tired straight after a shoot for Guzaarish, perked up considerably in the company of Sussanne, his family and his Bollywood friends.

Meanwhile Adhuna and Zoya Akhtar grooved to the music while Farhan Akhtar grouped up with Shah Rukh, Gauri, Karan Johar, who were later joined by Abhishek and Aishwarya. Vivek Oberoi was among the guests - he arrived on a bike.

Farhan Akhtar was mobbed at an awards function in Kanpur recently. As a result, the Rock On!! star had to be locked inside a room for over an hour till the crowds dispersed. The director-actor was attending the Madhavrao Scindia Awards ceremony where he was honoured for outstanding performance in cinema.

Farhan Akhtar, we are given to believe, is one heck of a perfectionist. The director-turned-actor is currently shooting for his next film Karthik Calling Karthik. And if reports are to be believed, Farhan Akhtar is taking his role very, very seriously.

Mumbai Mirror reports that the star has been obsessed with the Rubik's Cube and has been carrying one with him wherever he goes!

Ever wonder what do our Bollywood celebrities do while they are on a flight? We bring you some juicy details!

Farhan Akhtar: Farhan Akhtar is someone who always maintains a low profile when flying. The actor loves to make his own tea and coffee in the tiny kitchen table in the airline. And while at that, he gets chatty with the flight attendants. Sweet!

Farhan Akhtar to sing for AR Rahman in Blue; this will be his first song for another actor.

Farhan Akhtar cant stop smiling these days. Don’t blame him. He received a call from Oscar winner AR Rahman, who asked him to sing for him for the film Blue. Caught completely off guard by the call, it took time for Farhan to realise that it was indeed Rahman who was talking to him on the phone. A source said, Rahman told Farhan that his voice suits a cool number that he wanted him to record for Blue. Farhan, of course, agreed immediately. It was too good an offer to resist.

There's more father-daughter bonding going on in Bollywood than meets the eye. As soon as Kartik Versus Kartik wraps up, Farhan Akhtar will take time off to be with his eldest daughter.

Says Farhan, "After I complete Kartik, I'm taking time off to be with my elder daughter who has her summer vacations. When her school opens in June, I leave to look for foreign locations for Don 2."
