The twitter world is quite a busy one, and Bollywood contributes a great deal to it. Here's looking at the best star tweets of the day.

Genelia D'Souza and Shahid Kapoor have been signed in to endorse Colgate toothpaste, and take on rival brand Pepsodent's Shah Rukh Khan.

'Loads of ppl alwys thought n mst often insisted dat I shud hv bn d face of Colgate n yes,I am d new brand ambassador 4Colgate n proudly so,' Genelia tweeted.

The two have already shot for the ad, which will also feature Indian cricketers like Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir and Zaheer Khan.

Sonakshi Sinha

Sonakshi Sinha posted a picture of the Joker shoot in Chandigarh. 'We're just a bunch of JOKERS, aap kaaaaauuuunnnn???' she tweeted.

The film also stars Akshay Kumar, Minissha Lamba, Shreyas Talpade and Vindoo Dara Singh. While the cast and director showed off their pearlies, we wonder why Minissha gave it a miss.

Anurag Basu

Director Anurag Basu used twitter to make a statement. 'Sometimes we do not make films because we want to; we make it because we have to..SAD!!!'

Was he referring to his last release, the disasterous Kites?

Bipasha Basu

When Bipasha Basu posted pictures of some girls tying her shoelaces, she obviously did not imagine the uproar it would cause.

She was quick to repair the damage: 'Abt d pix, D pair of boots were a diff pair so my sis and my friend were helping me n I thought it looked damn funny n took d pix as a joke! A pix put 4 fun gt picked up by ppl as 'child labour' is absolutely unbelievable.Jst so tht al get it right:neither of the 2 r children!' Bipasha wrote.

About the child labour allegations, she tweeted, 'I wish tht d ones who created such a furore n reacted imm'ly, actually do something worthy against child labour. Also 'child labour' is a serious issue tht can't b used in such a light connotation.'
