Koena Mitra to costar with Orlando Bloom in English film

Model-turned-actor Koena Mitra is all set to share screen space with British actor Orlando Bloom in English film 'Karna', which will be produced by Pritish Nandy Communications.

The film that is scheduled for release next year and is peppered with a lot of fight sequences will portray the athletic actress as a superwoman. "I have been to Beijing and Hong Kong for the special training", says Koena without revealing much details about the new venture.

Meanwhile, at the home front, Koena is playing a 'meaty' role in an Anant Mahadevan directed thriller 'Anamika,' based on the novel 'Rebecca.'

"I am also working with two new directors and the films are in a nascent stage right now," says the 'Khullam Khulla' girl, the song from the film 'Road' which shot her into glamourdom.

In the five years since she came under public spotlight, she has tried her hand at acting, modelling, stage shows and public appearances.

Looking back at her momentous years in the glamour industry, Koena believes that she has meticulously waited and worked to get big banner films.

"I think big banner names have an added advantage of getting a good response from the audience but one has to work hard also because even such films can fall flat. I have rejected a lot of films and item songs and I think that has been a wise decision,"

Keona says.

Hudson and Bloom Enjoy Steamy Kiss at Party

Hollywood stars Kate Hudson and Orlando Bloom have sparked rumors of a new romance after they were caught kissing at a Halloween party.

The pair got together at a bash Hudson threw at her home in Pacific Palisades, Calif., on October 27, and the actress didn't care who saw them -- including her recent ex, actor Dax Shepherd.

An insider tells OK! magazine, "Kate and Orlando were talking, drinking and laughing. Then they just started going at it. They made out for ages and looked like they were really enjoying themselves. They didn't care who was watching.
"After that first make-out session, they walked around and talked to everyone as a couple. They were inseparable for the rest of the night."

Another onlooker adds, "At one point, Kate and Orlando were kissing in front of Dax. But he didn't seem to care at all."

Hudson's divorce from The Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson was finalized just two days before her kissing marathon with Bloom, on October 25.

Other guests at the party included another rumored hot new Hollywood couple, Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon.

Orlando Bloom has reportedly been spending this past weekend romancing Australian model Miranda Kerr - which has fueled speculation that the the pair are dating.
In April this year, Orlando was seen house-hunting and took Miranda on a double-date at exclusive Asian restaurant Megu, in New York, over the weekend.
According to the Sunday Telegraph newspaper (Australia) the pair were apparently “smitten” with each other.
An onlooker said: “They looked really happy together, and spent most of the evening cuddling and touching each other. They definitely looked like a couple.”
The pair have previously denied they were a couple, with Miranda saying: “Orlando is a nice guy but we’re just friends. We actually ran into each other by coincidence and then someone took a photo, turning a molehill into a mountain.”
Orlando has also recently been linked to former ‘Friends’ actress Jennifer Aniston, but denied they were anything more than “just good friends”

orlando in clear after crash

British actor Orlando Bloom will not face hit-and-run and drunk-driving charges following a car crash in Hollywood earlier this month.
The official report into the accident said Bloom, 30, was not driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
And a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County District Attorney said "there was insufficient evidence he was trying to get away".
Bloom swerved and hit a parked car as he was being chased by four paparazzi.
Bloom's two passengers were injured and had to be treated in hospital.
Police said a 30-year-old woman in the front seat had cuts and bruises on her face, while a 35-year-old woman in the back seat fractured her neck.
Straight after the accident Bloom - who was uninjured - walked about 20m away from the scene to avoid photographers, but he later returned.
He told police he had been dazed by what had happened.
Bloom spent the night at the Cedars Sinai hospital to be with the second woman, a childhood friend.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star told police he was leaving a nightclub at about 0215 local time (0915 GMT) when a photographer began following him.
