India gets a jhalak of Brad & Angelina

What on earth are Brad Pitt and Anjolina Jolie up to? If you've not got your fill of their lifestory, then here's the update on Hollywood's couple no 1, who are ensconsed at the Le Meridien in Pune. They got out of their hotel, they got into an auto and they sort of got into a fight.

The couple were spotted stepping out of their hotel this afternoon and heading to an unknown destination. Many members of the press both national and international are parked outside the hotel ever since they have arrived to catch a glimpse of the stars. Pitt and Jolie are in the city to shoot for 'A Mighty Heart', a film on the life of journalist Daniel Pearl. The film, produced by Pitt's production house, is based on the book of the same title by Daniel's wife, Marianne Pearl.

Initially, 'Mr & Mrs Smith' seem to have given everybody a slip but that didn't deter the media from hunting for Brangelina. According to the grapevine, the celeb couple are to be put up at a mansion in Baner during their stay in Pune. Then, at last they were spotted walking out of their hotel in Pune. The couple were finally spotted after days of speculation about their arrival and stay in the city.

This is the kind of media attention Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's stopover in Pune is getting. Press photographers, journalists and newscamera crews are parked outside their hotel, ever since the couple landed in the city. And we put on our papparazzi caps to get a confirmation on that. They have checked into suites 519 to 526 at Le Meridien - so now you pesevering fans can go pester them there!

They are expected to be in India for a month and their stay could well be extended, if they chose to sightsee. But this visit took an ungly turn today. A scuffle between a media person and a bodyguard occured outside the hotel, where Pitt and Jolie are residing during their stay in Pune. 

A reporter from a UK press agency was held by the neck and verbally abused by the celebrity couple's bodyguard. The incident occured as the media collected to take pictures of people who were to enter a car parked at the entrance of Le Meridien. Hotel authorities have refused to comment on the incident calling it a 'fight between two guests'.

And today, finally, they were snapped while taking a joyride on an autorickshaw, which they no doubt found exotic.
