The Grease star kept his public outings to a minimum but we caught a brief glimpse of him GQ Man of the Year Awards. He even bagged the GQ Legend Award for his performance in films like Saturday Night Fever, Pulp Fiction, ‘Grease’ and Face Off. On being asked whether he would like to join the Bollywood bandwagon, Travolta surprised us with, “I would love to work in Bollywood, but I have never been approached by anyone. I keep hearing that people want to work with me, but none of that has ever materialized.”
John Travolta’s departure from Mumbai coincided with rapper Sean Kingston’s arrival in the city. The American artist is here to play a gig and plans to jam with Aadesh Shrivastava. The 20-year old singer tweeted, “Just got to India…It’s fireburning out here…Got some nice people out here though.”
Earlier this year, Shah Rukh Khan roped in international R&B singer Akon to record a song for his movie Ra.One. Shah Rukh even threw a lavish party for the artist, where he invited the best of Bollywood to shake a leg with Akon. Pretty Woman Julia Roberts was in India last year for the filming of Eat, Pray, Love. The Oscar-winning actress stayed at the Pataudi palace in Gurgaon with her twins.
We hope people out there are listening!
