Guess who was recently spotted watching the latest romantic action movie “Date Night”?  It was none other than Bollywood’s “We-are-just-friends” couple Ritesh Deshmukh & Genelia D’Souza.

The duo was recently spotted at a South Mumbai multiplex catching the latest action comedy starring Tina Fey and Steve Carell.

The cute couple along with three other couple friends were seen having a blast and were even overheard praising the movie. However, when a journalist spotted them together, they tried to make a hurried exit by parting ways. While Riteish tried to maintain his calm, Genelia almost ran towards a nearby film standee; trying to hide herself.

Well, we hope the two eventually had a good ‘Date Night’….. Maybe they will finally accept their relationship in the open and perhaps even share some of their dating tips with us!

She has no hit after Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, her comeback venture in Hindi cinema, and yet Genelia D’Souza continues to be a popular face with advertisers. Consider the odds: Genelia was much less hyped than Asin, another Tamil superstar who made her Bollywood debut around the same time with Ghajini. Asin, after her second film London Dreams failed last year, has no takers in Bollywood and has also not signed any new endorsement deal. On the other hand, Genelia’s brand value continues to rise despite consecutive duds. So much so, Virgin Mobiles recently signed Genelia as their new brand ambassador in India along with Ranbir Kapoor. The perky actress also scooped up a new assignment as the new face of Garnier. Experts feel that Genelia successfully fills the cute and bubbly image that was left vacant after Preity Zinta. “Genelia has an advantage. She is not overly sexy. Rather, she looks cute. That makes her a favourite with families and youngsters because she comes across as a sweet cultured girl,” says ad whiz Prahlad Kakkar. “She is a young girl with a refreshing personality. Although Genelia has given flops after Jaane Tu…, a film comes as a package. And advertisers in India don’t link a film’s failure to a female actor,” says Anita Nayyar, CEO, Havas Media. “Genelia carries a unique personality. She is the only young actress who matches the spunk of Kajol, Rani Mukherjee and Preity Zinta,” says Anirban Das Blah, managing director of KWAN, which manages Genelia’s account. Probably that’s why Genelia features among the Top 10 celebrity brand endorsers that TAM AdEx released a couple of months ago. Meanwhile, Genelia’s cute grin is only growing broader. Nowadays, she reportedly charges a whopping Rs 1.5 crore per deal. It puts her only after reigning queens Kareena, Katrina and Priyanka in the ad-money game. They charge around Rs 2- 2.5 crore per deal.

The Boys’ girl Genelia D’Souza is upset with rumours of her wedding with actor Riteish Deshmukh. A Mumbai tabloid had reported the romance between Genelia and Riteish that developed on the sets of “Tujhe Meri Kasam” six years ago is concluding in marriage this year.

But the Santhosh Subramaniam actress says she isn’t getting married to anyone for the time being.

“To set the record straight, I am not getting married to anyone. I have always maintained that my personal life is not something I would like to discuss. But this time since it was something that would affect my family, I decided to take a stand,” said Genelia in a statement released on Tuesday.

My films and my brands are my priority as of now and I’d like to keep it that way. And if I do decide to settle down, you will hear it from me when as and when it happens,” says the actress.

Genelia is right now looking forward to the release of “Chance Pe Dance” in which she is paired with Shahid Kapoor. The film releases on January 15.

As his upcoming flick ‘Chance Pe Dance’ is all set for release, Shahid Kapur is bound to be ready with a fresh link up! The actor, who is riding high on success waves after the stupendous success of ‘Kaminey’ is using every trick in the book to maintain his ‘hit’ status and remain in limelight for his upcoming films’ sake.
Reportedly, the actor is now flirting openly with his ‘CPD’ co-star Genelia D’Souza over social networking sites, and the actress too seems equally interested! Shahid has previously been linked with Amrita Rao, Priyanka Chopra, Vidya Balan, Anushka Sharma – each time for a film release being around the corner. So, we guess, this time too it’s all for the publicity of his film. But who knows it may turn out to be a hot affair!

Ritiesh Deshmukh has no problems answering googlies that are thrown at him. Only questions of a personal nature are a no-no. Especially when they centre around Genelia. The good humour in his tone is replaced with a miffed outburst: “Hey, I want to make it very clear that Genelia and I are NOT in any kind of relationship. I don’t know how many more times I’ll need to say this in print before people actually start believing me. I am not in a relationship with any girl now. Why is it difficult to accept that?” Accept it, by the looks of it, Riteish is still single. “Well, I enjoy being single. I am happy this way. I have all the time and space to to do anything I want to. If I have a romantic relationship with a girl, I’ll certainly admit to the same. What’s the hurry to fall in love? When it has to happen it will,” he says.

Genelia has a clean image in the industry so far. Her roles have been that of a bubbly, energetic and girl-next-door characters. This image might change, if what the sources reveal are true.

According to sources, she was asked recently if she is willing to do a bikini role. She responded saying that she is ready to do such roles if the script really demands it. She has reportedly added that the scene should not be shot in an obscene manner.

However we have to wait for a formal confirmation on this and it also remains to be seen if her new image is well accepted by the audience who have adored her the way she is.

Genny is arriving with her new movie ‘Katha’ soon.
