Bollywood Stars Hosting Dinner for Julia Roberts in India

Some Bollywood stars are flying about 1200 kilometers north to Pataudi (India) to host a dinner in honor of Julia Roberts, who is currently shooting for "Eat, Play, Love", according to reports.

These reportedly include Filmfare award winners Saif Ali Khan (Hum Tum), Kareena Kapoor (Jab We Met), Sharmila Tagore (Aradhana), etc. Tagore, who is the chairperson of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) of India, has reportedly already met Roberts. Government regulatory body CBFC is "responsible for certifying the films produced in India as well as outside the country suitable for public exhibition".

Meanwhile, acclaimed Hindu statesman Rajan Zed has urged Roberts to give some of her time and resources by launching a charity for the people of Pataudi and the surrounding area in Haryana where she is spending about three weeks. Seeing her enthusiastic support for programs for nurturing and caring of world children in the past, a children's charity would be a good start, Zed, who is the president of the Universal Society of Hinduism, suggested.
