Abhishek gets 1st hit abroad!

Who's hotter: Shilpa or Shamita?


A Bengali, she claimed she had difficulties in singing Hindi songs, as her pronunciation was not perfect. She bagged the Jassi contract all thanks to its music director Raju Singh.

Besides Jassi, Aditi will also sing for Ekta Kapoor's Kkusum. "The song in Kkusum will be picturised on me. There will be a jewellery exhibition and I will be singing on the ramp."

While Abhijeet is still in the limelight, Aditi had disappeared for a while. Ask her about it and she replies, "I got married!"

She adds that hers was not a love marriage, and that her husband is a teacher in Kolkata. "My life is so busy that I can't meet my husband. He is in Kolkata and I'm in Mumbai. He is planning to shift to Mumbai but it will take time."

Aditi has been busy with stage shows, and even had to refuse a film -- offered to her by music composer Sandesh Shandilya (Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Road, Chameli) -- because of her tight schedule.
