Fire Records failing to promote the Musicians & distributing music content



Fire Records Logo
Fire Records is supposed to be the most powerful Music Record Label of Pakistan but it is not indeed true. If it’s  ”Powerful” then the organization should have reach to every part of Pakistan, to distribute their albums & Content. But here in this case, people assume “Fire Records” powerful as it controls Artists, Bands & their content very tightly.
Fire Records content is like “Fire”! it doesn’t mean that it goes VIRAL but actually it means that No one can touch it. The one who touches the “fire” is burnt into ashes or he gets a threat to get arrested by FIA ( yes Federal Investigation Agency ) . This was the intro of the monopolist record label of Pakistan – Fire Records – as discussed by major stake holders such as Private Music Channels Officials, FM Channels representatives & RJs , Music Website Owners & many a times ARTISTS/MUSICIANS too.
There is an album releasing each week by Fire Records except in the

Salman-Katrina have a blast on the sets of ‘Tees Maar Khan’




People might speculate on their relationship status, but one thing is for sure that Bollywood’s most bizarre couple Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif get along like a house on fire.
Recently, while shooting a qawwali sequence for Farah Khan’s ‘Tees Maar Khan’, which also features Akshay Kumar, at Film City in Mumbai, Salman and Katrina were extremely cordial towards each other.
Confirming Salman and Katrina’s camaraderie with prankster Akshay Kumar, a source said, “Salman and Katrina had always been discreet about their relationship.
And all speculation about how awkward they would be when they bump into each other again, went for a toss on the sets of ‘Tees Maar Khan.’ It wasn`t a shoot for a

Ali Zafar looks through Katrina Kaif


It seems Pakistan's pop icon Ali Zafar, who is now in Mumbai to pursue a career in movies, has a lot of catching up to do on the who's who of the film industry. Last week at a party, he failed to recognize Katrina Kaif although she is his co-star in the Yash Raj film that Ali has signed.

Last week Katrina spotted Ali whom she had seen and liked in Tere Bin Laden at a party. Knowing they were scheduled to work together Katrina enthusiastically approached Ali…only to be greeted with a polite but bank smile.

Says an eyewitness, "Ali clearly didn't recognize Katrina. Though he was polite, he had a quizzical who-are-you look on his face. It was an embarrassing moment for Katrina. But she handled it with aplomb. She introduced herself as her co-star in the Yash Raj film that they were doing, welcomed him to Mumbai and walked off."

When asked about this embarrassing incident Katrina shrugged it off with a laugh, "It's true. Ali looked at me quite strangely at the party last week. What's the big deal? He's new to Bollywood. It will take him time to know everyone. I've been here for four years. I still don't know everyone."

The story doesn't end there. It seems Katrina had load of fun at Ali's expense the day after the party incident.

Letting out a prankster's chuckle, Katrina says, "I met Ali at the

Kate Winslet could marry new boyfriend





Hollywood actress Kate Winslet believes she could get married to her new boyfriend Louis Dowler.

"As far as Kate is concerned, they could go all the way together - get married, have kids. She's the happiest we've ever seen her. He really brings out a wonderful, carefree side to her that we haven't seen for years," femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying.

Kate separated from her filmmaker husband Sam Mendes early this year after almost seven years of marriage.

But Louis, who started dating the "Revolutionary Road" star in July, has brought a smile back to the Oscar winner's face and she has never been happier.

I'm really close with my grandpa and he's really sick and he's in the US and my dad's with him. So I was, like, crying all day, really sad. So I thought I would be honest and tell you that's what's going on... It's been one of

Hrithik, Katrina's lip lock in new film





Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif will share a steamy liplock in Zoya Akhtar's Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara. The kiss was shot in the Spain during the first schedule of the film, last month.

Although Hrithik has played tonsil tennis with other heroines in the past, this was his first time with Katrina Kaif, so there was a level of discomfort from her side. Also, this is the first time they are working together, so she didn't have the easy on-screen chemistry she does with an Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan or even Ranbir Kapoor.

The duo had to work to get into the comfy zone. They spent a time of time together on the set before the intimate scene was shot. Perfectionist Hrithik wanted to get it right and was suggested rehearsing the smooch before the shoot. A source spills the

Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan’s legal woes seem to be taking a toll on her career, as she is reportedly being replaced by country singer Taylor Swift in a new romantic comedy about a child star finding success on a reality TV dating show. Writer-producer Richard O’Sullivan initially offered Mean Girls star Lohan the lead in his new film One Night With You after writing it with her in mind.O’Sullivan said: “It is ready-made for Lindsay… but we’re proceeding with extreme caution while the Lohan family sorts through their issues during a very trying time.” Lohan has since served two stints in jail – the latest being a 10-hour stay Friday – and also spent time in a court-ordered lockdown rehab.
