B-town's biggest gossips of 2011

From careless whispers to rumoured stories, from gossip kings and queens to the chatterati, Bollywood's pretty people remained busy through out the year making stories and then featuring in them.

Top of the heap of the biggest and juiciest Bollywood gossip was the budding closeness between Don Shah Rukh Khan and his lady Priyanka Chopra. This hush-hush piece of gossip managed to miff many. Chinese whispers did the round that Priyanka got an icy cold welcome at SRKs Eid party at his Bandra home on August 31. Everyone, from the hostess Gauri Khan to her close friends, was believed to have ignored Priyanka when she showed up.

With a long term relationship behind him, John Abraham seemed to have spent no time in jumping off to another relationship. It is believed that John Abraham and his current banker girlfriend Priya Marwah were rather serious about each other and have been looking at making things official in April 2012.

After keeping things rather secret for eight long years, lovebirds Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza finally got engaged in 2011. The couple would tie the knot in February 2011.

February, it seems, is an auspicious and heavy month for Bollywood weddings. Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor were also believed to be looking at a February wedding. To make most of the humungous curiosity of their fans and the media in this event, Saif would be releasing his home production Agent Vinod in the same month.

Karan Johars Ekk Main Aur Ek Tu-starring Kareena Kapoor and Imran Khan-is also reportedly releasing in February.

While some have been making it official, other Bollywood couples were still rather discreet about their love stories. Actor Sonam Kapoor and director Punit Malhotra have reportedly been a couple behind the cameras.

Same implies with actress Vidya Balan and her beau Siddharth Roy Kapoor. The Dirty Picture actress has been seeing the CEO of UTV Motion Pictures for sometime now, but the two have been keeping their personal life personal.

It is believed that Sonakshi Sinha's increasing waistline cost her an item number in Shirish Kunder's Joker. Reportedly, the actress has been on a green tea and biscuit only diet to shed those extra kilos. The item number that was originally designed for Sonakshi would now feature Chitrangada Singh.

And ladies' man Ricky Bahl aka Ranveer Singh's growing proximity to Sonakshi Sinha irked his reported girlfriend Anushka Sharma. It is believed that thanks to Ranveer's womanising ways, the Band Baaja Baraat couple now seems to be history.
