Show us more! Gimme skin

Or so, is likely to be the viewer's expectation from 'Dostana2'. Beefcake or cheesecake, 'Dostana 2' is bound to find appeal across audiences. Though, with hot(ttt) Katrina Kaif koolly turning down the offer to display more of her svelte frame, John Abraham will be called upon to deliver a quarter/ half/ full… monty.:))))

The canary yellow shorts and a well tanned J. Abbs, rippling muscles et al, emerging from the Miami blue waters ('Dostana') are still fresh in the minds of cinegoers. And he's already showed his super butt to the camera eye!

Presently, director Tarun Mansukhani and producer Karan Johar are wracking their creative brains as to how to present Johnny Boy to full advantage in the sequel.

The hunky actor, however, has naughtily revealed to the media, that there is "more" of him to feast one's eyes upon… and that "audiences will be shocked."

Guess, it's just skintillating.

Shah Rukh Khan decided to get cozy. Er, sorry, Cozi… but not with some saucy starlet. Rather, SRK's turned Cozi with cricket. Kolkata Knight Riders and King Khan will team up with the Rs 400 crore turnover brand for the upcoming IPL.

Deluxe Khan and Lux Cozi, will sportingly serve up two options: a KKR t shirt made from sweat absorbent fabric called Viking, styled by Manish Malhotra, no less. Their second offering is on, hmmm… it's ONN, the new vest which is being touted to be a step ahead in chic comfort.

With the Sena on the backfoot, retracting it's belligerent stance, the Karan Johar helmed opus is gearing up for the bouquets and barbs. Industry pundits, though, have already announced it's success as a foregone conclusion. And most are sanguine that it will create history at the cine stakes. Vests, vested interests, Khan's tackling it all.

SRK, 'apna luck pehen ke chalo.'

One belly is likely to remain starved… till October 2010! 'Delhi Belly', that is. Reportedly, producer Aamir Khan and director Abhinav Deo are thick in the midst of an ego tussle. And the dampener is that 'Delhi Belly' has been relegated to the backburner!

A distraught Deo, meanwhile, has opted to take a 'Crooked' step. He's gone ahead with his Kangna Ranaut starrer, besides making his displeasure known to the 'Idiot' Khan.

Incidentally, this isn't a first for Khan. Earlier, director Amol Gupte had helmed a portion of 'Taare Zameen Par', but the perfectionist Khan was unhappy with the results. A spat later, Khan took to helming his dyslexic saga himself.

A close source however has a different take. He says, "Aamir's not at fault. He will look at 'Delhi Belly' later, because he likes to be in total charge of whatever his production house makes."

No belly laughs here, sorry.:((((((((

Shahid Kapoor doesn't want to take any 'Chance'. He's ensuring that only Hrithik Roshan's ex make up man, James, touches up his six pack abs, whenever he's required to film "body shots."

Apparently, SK believes that it was courtesy James, that Hrithik looked like a dashing dude in 'Dhoom2' and is hoping his brushes will work the same magic for him! Meanwhile, Kapoor's greasepaint man, Srikanth, has been relegated to being a mere observer.

Close insiders, however, have also observed a new "friendship" between Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor. Tongues are wagging furiously, since SK's car is often seen parked outside Padukone's building.

Kapoor's romantic link with Priyanka Chopra has allegedly hit Splitsville… and his gorgeous neighbour seems to have moved on in life. Ditto DP, who's not letting Ranbir rankle her any further. Besides, the duo of sexy singletons: SK and DP are keen to be cast together for a forthcoming flick. Two much, too soon.
