I am already too old for any new Twilight movie, claims Robert Pattinson!

The series of Twilight movie has successfully spellbound the audience and everyone has eagerly waited to watch another part of the movie! Now only the last movie is remaining of the series adapted from the Stephenie Meyer’s namesake book series!

It is definite that audience is definitely going to miss its lead characters Edward and Bella! So, recently sources quizzed Robert Pattinson, if he would like to star in another Twilight movie if the author writes a book on it!

But Robert fears that he will be too old to star in another Twilight movie if author Stephenie Meyer ever decides to write another one. The British hunk, 24, has portrayed vampire Edward Cullen in the movie adaptations of Meyer’s popular books since the first film hit cinemas in 2008.

"I’d be curious what Stephenie would write, but I just think I’d probably be too old. I’m already too old. But yeah, it’d be kind of interesting," Pattinson said. The fourth and final book in the Twilight saga, has been split into two film releases, and Breaking Dawn - Part 2, is due to be released later this year.

Meanwhile Edward, you will never get old for us and we will be entertained to watch you in any role. What say people?

Lies that most of the romantic novels tell!

All those who are fond of reading theromantic novels must have got hold of the similarity in the usage of certain lines, which stands to be common in almost all the romantic fictions. 

Want to know what they are, just read on:  

1. Happy ending
This might not be the case in real life, the story might talk of the couple living happily ever after but reality can be far different.

2. It’s all about a tall, dark and handsome dude
Give it a break, does love only calls for physical attraction. We think the writers must now get over this age old way of describing the hero.

3. Grand expensive gestures to express love
You don't always need expensive declarations of love to know that someone cares for you. 

4. Relations are easy to handle
We wonder how this can ever be possible on earth! Relations are the most difficult to be handled.  

5. Follow your heart
Listening what your heart says is good but ignoring the thoughtful mind is not the right way of dealing with life.   

6. Drug addicts, abusers, alcoholics, skirt chasers can all be reformed with love
People do change but the ratio stands to be quite less. Taking on the responsibility of an addict or alcoholic demands a lot from you as a person! So, just don’t get fascinated by reading that people like them can be reformed with love.

Next time you get hold of a romantic novel, make sure to read between the lines!

Valentine's Day make up guide for the stunning look!

Those, of you pretty ladies, who love to dress the best and look different from the rest must be eagerly waiting for the Valentine’s Daywhen you can turn the princess for the man you love.

And of course, the day calls for you to be at your stunning best as nothing can be better than spending the day with your lover. So check out these three unique styles of dressing up as suggested by Simmi Ghai, make-up artist and founder of Xpressions salon.  




1. For a soft, romantic look
For this look you need to curl your lashes and apply either black or brown mascara. Now, apply a very pale, sheer pink blush on your cheekbones. This is done to create an accent of pink to give your face a lift so keep it as light as possible. Dab some gloss on your lips and you're good to go.







2. For a vivid, sexy look
This look needs you to enhance your eyes. For this, you will have to add individual lashes to your lash line. Begin by applying mascara to your natural eyelashes. Then add the false lashes along the rim of your eyes. Apply a basic blush on your cheeks and colour your lips with a deep Bordeaux red lipstick or rich, berry lip stain.

3. For a lovely, smoldering look
Opt for a black eye shadow and apply it evenly across your eye lids, lining the charcoal-like black towards the edges. Apply mascara on the lashes and use a deep ruby lip colour for a matte look on the lips.

Look dazzling on this Valentine’s Day!
