Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, left, and his wife Gauri Khan look on during an event in Mumbai, India, Thursday, Aug. 26, 2010.Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has allegedly still not paid her daughter Esha Deol her full remuneration for his film Darling. The outstanding amount is nearly Rs 13 lakh.
A friend of Esha says, “Esha waited very long for Ramu to pay up. Despite repeated reminders, he did not pay heed to her.”
Esha has filed a complaint in CINTAA (Cine & TV Artistes’ Association) a year ago, but Ramu did not respond to the letters from CINTAA. The case then reached the FWICE (Federation of Western Indian Cine Employees). Still Ramu has not responded. Now, the Federation has labelled the dispute as a ‘Non Cooperation Matter’.
“How long could Esha wait? She wants her money. So what if the film didn’t do well at the box-office,” says the same friend. When contacted, Ramu claimed, “That’s an old thing. To my knowledge, it was sorted out.”
However, Esha’s friend told Mumbai Mirror, “That’s rubbish. Esha is still fighting hard against Ramu in CINTAA only a few days ago. Her balance amount is Rs 12-13 lakh.”
Producer of Darling, Bhushan Kumar, said, “We had paid Ramu a lump sum for Darling. He was supposed to pay everybody from that. We had a clear cut agreement with him. We had no contract with Esha.”
General Secretary of CINTAA and President of FWICE, Dharmesh Tiwari, confirmed, “Yes, Esha is fighting a case against Ramu. The matter is now under the ‘non-cooperation’ category.”
Questions continue to surround the Heidi Montag sex tape, specifically: Is there a Heidi Montag sex tape?
Former Playboy model Karissa Shannon has the answer: Yes, I got busy with this enormous, fake-breasted realty star on camera.
"There is a sex tape of me and Heidi," Shannon tells Radar Online, adding that Spencer

Karissa spoke to the website while she and boyfriend Sam Jones
Keeping a straight face, Shannon said she doesn't want people to see the video.
How did it even get out? Blame Spencer, of course.
"Me and Heidi were hanging out at her house in Malibu and he came over to pick up some stuff and he 'accidentally' took my camera," she said. "I talk to Heidi every single day and I tried to be there for her when she was going through her divorce, but now it's starting to affect my life. Spencer had no right to steal my camera. There are other things on there that I don't want to come out, including the video of me and Heidi."
You know the best way to guarantee no one sees it, Karissa? Go around talking about it. Very well played.

We've already given readers a look at its cover art, but now we're excited to go even more in depth with the singer. What was the song-writing process like for the CD? What would she consider to be its theme?
Swift answers all these questions and more in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. Check out excerpts from it now:
On coming up with new tracks: It’s just such a fun challenge to constantly be writing and constantly be trying to top what you just wrote. It’s one of my favorite games to play - trying to beat what I’ve written last. What I wrote last is something I got really excited about when I wrote it, but I know I could write something better. It’s just a really fun thing to go through.
On connecting to the material: I think that whatever I go through in life will be directly reflected in my music. If I have a bunch of different experiences with a bunch of different people and some of them are good and some of them are bad and some of them are confusing, you have an album like this... I like to feel like I’ve covered every emotion that I’ve felt in the last two years.
On the single "Sparks Fly:" It's a song that the fans have been talking to me about in meet-and-greet lines for the last two years. So I revisited it, and I breathed some new life into it, lyrically and from a production standpoint. I’m really excited about the way it turned out.
On a summation of the CD: It's a collection of confessions, things I wish I had said when I was in the moment.

And it looks as if Paris Hilton has even mugshot poses down to a fine art.
Judging by her newly-released mugshot from early Saturday morning's drug arrest, all the primping and preening she did on Friday paid off.
Booked: Paris Hilton has been arrested in Las Vegas over possession of cocaine.
Busted: Paris' boyfriend Cy Waits was booked for a DUI
Paris Hilton's attorney David Chesnoff has asked people not to judge the heiress for her drug arrest until all the facts are known.
'Paris Hilton was released this morning on her own recognizance,' he said today.
'This matter will be dealt with in the courts not in the media and I encourage people not to rush to judgement until all of the facts have been dealt with in a court of law. There will be no interviews and no more comments at this time.'
Hilton is denying the cocaine allegedly found in her car in Las Vegas last night is hers.
It is the same defence she successfully used when facing drug charges in South Africa last month.
Hilton insists the purse in which the drugs were allegedly found by police doesn't belong to her, sources close to Hilton have told celebrity website TMZ.
Perfecting the pose: Paris' mugshots from September 2006 (left) and June 2007.
The actress was first arrested and charged in 2006 for driving under the influence and ended up having her license suspended. She was pulled over twice in 2007 and found to be driving with an invalid license.
And she has hired high-powered Vegas lawyer Chesnoff to handle the case.
Although Hilton was the only woman in the car that was stopped, she had been partying earlier at a club where her purse could have been mixed up with someone else's, says TMZ.
Hilton was arrested for possessing cocaine after her car was stopped by police in Las Vegas.
Her boyfriend Cy Waits, who was driving the car, was booked on charges of DUI.
The socialite was booked into the Clark County Detention Center early on Saturday on a charge of possession of cocaine.
And she was released at around 2.30 am local time on Saturday.
The socialite was booked into the Clark County Detention Center early this morning where she is still being held
Police say she was in a car driven by a friend that was stopped when officers noticed what they suspected to be marijuana smoke coming from it.
During the stop officers found what appeared to be a controlled substance on Hilton and tests showed that it was cocaine. It is not clear how much of the drug was found.
Police spokesman Marcus Martin described events leading up to Hilton's arrest.
'Officers noticed a vehicle leaving a smoke trail of a contolled substance (and) made a stop based on that,' he said.
He did not know how much cocaine had been found.
Hilton was quickly recognised by passers-by and a crowd gathered around the area where the vehicle had been pulled over.
Calm before the storm: Paris Hilton gets primped and pampered in Las Vegas on the day of her arrest
Four years ago the reality TV star was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol and sentenced to 45 days in prison.
She ended up spending 23 days in jail in June 2007.
On her release, she told Larry King that the experience caused her to re-evaluate the role partying played in her life.
She said she wanted 'to help raise money for kids and for breast cancer and multiple sclerosis.'
The heiress was arrested again this summer after the Brazil-Netherlands World Cup match in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, on suspicion of possession of marijuana. The case was then dropped at a midnight court hearing.
Hilton's manager was not available for comment today. Her publicist Dawn Miller referred Mail Online to the statement by Hilton's lawyer.

As a millionaire former pop star and an aristocratic boyfriend on her arm, you'd think Geri Halliwell could afford a decent swimsuit.
But as she relaxed on a boat off the coast of St Tropez yesterday, it appeared the 38-year-old was wearing a red bikini slightly too small for her ample cleavage.
As she boarded a speedboat to take her from her yacht to the beach, a paranoid Geri examined her cleavage to make sure everything was in place... just.
Over-exposed: Geri Halliwell suffers from 'under cleavage' as she shows off her figure in a red bikini in St Tropez... which appears a few sizes too small for her
Is everything in place? Geri keeps a close eye on her ample cleavage
But despite looking in fantastic shape as she enjoyed her second trip to the French Riviera this year, it looked like the former Spice Girl may have been wearing a bikini bought during her skinnier days.
The result saw her expose her 'under cleavage', otherwise known as 'neathage'.
Once on the beach, Geri and boyfriend Henry Beckwith, 31, showed their affection for each other as they frolicked in the waves and cuddled each other.
Red hot: Despite her bikini faux pas, Geri was looking toned and tanned
In the 16 months they've been together, Geri and Henry have enjoyed many holidays together with her daughter Bluebell, including several trips to the French Riviera, snowboarding in Courcheval, a Mediterranean cruise and a romantic holiday for two to the Italian island of Sardinia.
Fortunately this time round, there appeared to be no arguments for the couple, who were spotted exchanging harsh words in St Tropez last month.
Geri erupted in anger as she caught Henry giving another woman the eye as they walked back to their boat.

She started shouting at him, waving her arms in the air and even pushing him away from her at one point.
The drama attracted the attention of another man on the beach, who came over to see what was going on.
An onlooker told Mail Online: 'Geri was absolutely fuming. She was shouting at him and telling him what for.
Tender: Geri shares an embrace with Henry
'Clearly, she was not happy about his wandering eye.'
The couple have been dating since March 2009 - just 10 days after Halliwell ended her whirlwind engagement to Italian yacht owner Fabrizio Politti.
Prior to Beckwith, Geri's longest romance was six months with American dancer Ivan 'Flipz' Velez, who she met on the Spice Girls reunion tour.
The pair enjoyed a transatlantic romance, visiting each other in Los Angeles and London.
