Button: I'm feeling very positive. Thursday, 20th March 2008 Britain's Jenson Button will be hoping his race lasts a lot longer this Sunday in Malaysia after he was forced out in Melbourne last weekend following an incident at the very first corner. Button broke the left rear suspension on his RA108 in a 'racing incident' with Sebastian Vettel's Scuderia Toro Rosso. Despite that though, it was still a pretty positive weekend and Honda were a lot more competitive than many people had predicted. Indeed Barrichello finished in sixth in the sister car, until he was disqualified - due to a pit lane infringement, while both made it into Q2 on Saturday and in the end lined-up on the grid just outside the top ten, with Jenson 13th and Rubens 11th. "I'm looking forward to Malaysia," said Button. "Obviously I didn't get to compete in Australia because I had an accident at turn one, but I'm very positive for the next one. "It's tough racing in 35-degree heat in Sepang but that isn't the real problem, it's the humidity. It's one thing taking in hot air but quite another taking in hot and damp air. It's pretty tough to breath and it can get quite claustrophic in the helmet. You just have to make sure you're prepared and we will be! "We made a lot of improvements with the car during the Melbourne weekend and I'm hoping for the same improvement over the next race. It's very competitive in the midfield and we have to get the best out of the car at every stage. If we can do that we can get a good result in the race." Honda team principal, Ross Brawn meanwhile is also convinced that the Brackley-based outfit will be able to do well and hopefully break into the top eight and score some points. "Whilst the result was disappointing [in Oz], we have to look at the positives. Qualifying confirmed that we are in the midfield and a very strong race drive from Rubens showed that we have the potential to fight for points," Brawn continued. "I think we can have a similarly strong weekend now to the one we experienced in Melbourne. "We have shown that we have a car with which to target the points and two drivers who are very determined to achieve that. "It was pleasing to see that the aerodynamic upgrade from Jerez worked as expected and I think we have a good basis for the first three races until we can introduce the next development step for Spain." Barrichello echoed those thoughts and is similarly upbeat: "We knew we had made a step forward at our final pre-season test in Jerez. What we didn't know was where we were in relation to the other teams. I'm encouraged by the start we have made to the season and for this I have to thank everyone in Japan and the UK for all the hard work that has gone into the car over the past few weeks in particular. I think we are going to have a positive season," concluded the Brazilian.

Hrithik Roshan thanks Shah Rukh for item song Mumbai - Shah Rukh Khan went out of his way to accommodate Rakesh Roshan and his banner by shooting an item song for their production "Krazzzy 4". And Hrithik Roshan cannot thank him enough. "I'm doing the song for my own home production. But Shah Rukh has gone out of his way to accommodate the project because he respects my dad. His gesture has touched all of us. It's very kind of him. He doesn't need to dance." Hrithik can't stop raving about the item song. "It's the best dance track I've ever performed. My uncle Rajesh Roshan has outdone himself. Vishal Dadlani, who has sung the number, has also been extremely gracious. He didn't accept the cheque that my dad gave after the song. He did it for my dad and uncle. As a family, we Roshans are overwhelmed by the respect that has been shown by everyone associated with the item song." Tell him it's because of the respect his father's banner commands; and Hrithik corrects me. "No, I think it's more to do with the kind of person my father is. If he was some one else, Shah Rukh, Vishal and everyone else wouldn't have gone out of their way to accommodate us, no matter how successful we may be. I think my dad has earned the respect he gets. He doesn't command it." Hrithik further says: "Shah Rukh's version of the song will be part of the main movie, while mine will be used at the end of the title; and also on MTV, Channel V and other promotional campaigns for television." With the triumphant "Jodhaa Akbar" behind him, Hrithik is now looking forward to starting his next film with Anurag Basu. "That's one film I'm really looking forward to. I'm a big fan of Anurag's cinema. I think he's a very sensitive director. He is going to do something different with me. I can't say much about the subject, but it will be a different experience for me." The industry was abuzz about Sonam Kapoor starring as Hrithik's leading lady in Anurag's film. "Both Dad and I think Sonam is wonderful. But she was not considered for Anurag's film. The character needs someone from abroad. I'll have an international co-star in Anurag's film." Hrithik and Aishwarya looked pretty international in "Dhoom 2" and "Jodhaa Akbar". "I can't dispute that. It's true. Ash and I share a good rapport. It's always fun to work with a co-star who is not selfish. We gave so much of ourselves to 'Jodhaa Akbar'. Aishwarya has been one of my most helpful co-stars. I really like working with her. She is an incredible actor and an even better co-star. Since all three of us - Abhishek, Aishwarya and I - are friends, we've great fun even when we are not shooting." Hrithik craves for the perfect chemistry with his co-star. "I don't think it's possible for me to give my best if my co-star isn't doing the same. I try to surround myself with like-minded people. I think I've found the right people operating in my frequency to work it, be it Ashutosh Gowariker, Sanjay Gadhvi, Aditya Chopra or my dad. I'm fortunate, I guess."

Who are the big stars? CBBC Shah Rukh Khan - otherwise known as King Khan - is a HUGE Bollywood star. He started out on TV in the 1980s, before finding fame on the big screen in movie Deewana in 1992. Since then, he has won loads of awards and tried his hand at film producing. He's also found success presenting game show Kaun Banega Crorepati - the Indian version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire! Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Often called the most beautiful woman in the world, Aishwarya is married to actor Abhishek Bachchan. She has acted in over 40 films in Hindi, Tamil, Bengali and English. Before becoming an actress, Aishwarya worked as a model, and won the Miss World contest in 1994. Amitabh Bachchan Sometimes called the Big B, Bachchan has been the king of Indian cinema for more than 30 years. He is perhaps the world's biggest - and busiest - film star. During his career he has worked as a singer, film producer, television presenter and politician. Rani Mukherjee "India's sweetheart" has loads of movie hits to her name. But she's well known for her role in the film Black, in which she played a deaf-blind girl. Her performance won her loads of film awards. Rani, meaning queen in some languages, has also been called the queen of Bollywood. Shilpa Shetty Although glamorous actress Shilpa Shetty has lots of fans among Indian film goers, she's not quite as popular there as Aishwarya Rai or Rani Mukherjee. Shilpa hit the headlines in the UK last year when she won Celebrity Big Brother. She went on to star in Miss Bollywood, a stage show telling the story of a young girl called Maya and how she copes with fame.

Saif and Priyanka in Voice From the Sky For his new film, Voice From the Sky, director Farhan Akhtar has signed a very impressive cast; the hero will be played by Saif Ali Khan and the heroine by Priyanka Chopra. The story will revolve around a little boy and is not going to be your standard fare. It will have no songs; will be both in Hindi and English and the time period for the film will be when the use of the telephone first came into existence. Farhan has been working on the script for quiet awhile and said, “I began scripting Voice From The Sky right after Dil Chahta Hai. It has been with me since 2002-2003." About casting Saif he said, “I thought of Irrfan for the lead. But then Saif seemed a more natural choice. He's apt for the character. After Dil Chahta Hai, we wanted to work together. We did come close to working together in my sister Zoya's film. Finally, Voice From The Sky turned out to be the right movie." Adding, “I first spoke to Saif about this movie a year ago. At that point of time, he wasn't clear about whether he'd be able to do it. Then one day, out of the blue, he called me and said he can't stop thinking about the script. After that we made an effort to accommodate each other. The project will take off at the end of the year.” He is excited about signing Priyanka as well, “She is hassle-free and, according to me, still has lots of untapped potential. Her role in Voice From The Sky is very different from whatever she has done so far. It's primarily the story of a little boy. Priyanka and Saif are the two people who come into his life. I'm really looking forward to working with Priyanka and Saif after Don and Dil Chahta Hai.” Enthusiastic about the jodi of Saif and Priyanka he added, “Of course, they make a difference. We certainly get more eyeballs.” Since he has the hero and heroine his next search will be for the child artiste to play the little boy, “Now that I've Saif and Priyanka in place, I can start looking for the boy. It would've been terrible to find him and then not be able to make the film.”
