Salman Khan convinced me to do 'Hate Story 3': Daisy Shah

Mumbai: Shedding her girl-next-door image, Daisy Shah will be seen in a bold avatar in "Hate Story 3" and the actress feels it landed into her kitty just because superstar Salman Khan pushed her to do something different.

Daisy was seen opposite Salman in the 2014 action drama "Jai Ho".

"I had taken a back seat but Salman was the one who really pushed me for the film... He said I should do this because the film is completely different from Jai Ho," Daisy told reporters here.

The actress was speaking at the trailer launch of "Hate Story 3", which also stars Sharman Joshi, Karan Singh Grover and Zarine Khan.

The 31-year-old actress, who made her Bollywood debut as a bubbly girl opposite Salman, said she was aware that the shift to erotic-thriller was not a "safe" choice.

"As an actor, one should be open to all kinds of roles. This is something I have pushed myself further with. This is not a safe zone but I wanted to try it and I did it."

Zarine, who also made her debut with the "Dabangg" star in "Veer", said Salman was not aware for a long time that she was doing "Hate Story 3".

"Honestly, I don't think he knew for the longest that I was doing this film..."

The actress, who appeared in the song "Character Dheela" and starred in "Houseful 3", was initially sceptical to sign the film, directed by Vishal Pandya.

"I was very skeptical in the beginning. But then I met Vishal and he narrated me the script. Over a period of time we became really good friends and I think he has great convincing powers. But yes, in the beginning I was a little skeptical."

Written by Vikram Bhatt and Madhuri Banerji, the film is a sequel to Pandya's 2014 thriller "Hate Story 2" and third instalment of the franchise.

"Hate Story 3" is scheduled to release on December 4.

The first stethoscope

René Laennec, a French doctor and inventor was born 235 years ago today, and Google has marked his birthday with a Doodle. Dr Laennec's importance to modern medicine was guaranteed by his invention of the very first stethoscope in 1816. Here are five things you (probably) didn't know about him : 1. Dr Laennec's stethoscope bears little semblance to the modern stethoscope. Unlike those used today, Dr Laennec's stethoscope was not a set of ear pieces connected by a plastic tube to a chest piece. His stethoscopes were simple cylinders made from wood and metal. The doctor using it would simply place it directly over the area in question and listen at the other end. 2. His first stethoscope was a rolled up piece of paper Described in his 1819 treatise on this device, Dr Laennec invented the stethoscope while treating a young woman suffering from symptoms of heart disease. 3. The stethoscope was not his only contribution to medical science I...

EPA and the regulation of greenhouse gasses

This week, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy joined private and public sector leaders for a second annual White House roundtable discussion about the progress made and new steps taken to curb emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), potent greenhouse gases used in refrigeration and air conditioning. Administrator McCarthy announced several new actions the agency will take to help support a smooth transition to climate-friendly alternatives to HFCs. "EPA is working closely with industry leaders to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, transition to climate-friendly refrigerants, and deploy advanced refrigeration technologies,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “The powerful combination of EPA’s regulatory actions and innovations emerging from the private sector have put our country on track to significantly cut HFC use and deliver on the goals of the President’s Climate Action Plan.” Among the actions announced today, EPA proposed a rule that would improve t...
