Amitabh posted on his Twitter page.<br /><br />The 69-year-old, who loves spending time with his dog, even posted one picture out of the photoshoot, and wrote: "That picture is of Shanouk, my Piranha Dane...Shanouk - a warm gentle breeze on a cold winter morning..."<br /><br />Recently, Big B had shared his thoughts on how his dog had been feeling ignored ever since Abhishek and Aishwarya had a baby. But one can guess, the special photoshoot must have taken care of the pet's feelings.<br /><br />-*-<br />I didn't recommend Prateik, says Rahman<br />Composer A.R.Rahman has quashed rumours that he put in a word for actor Prateik Babbar in upcoming film "Ek Deewana Tha".<br /><br />"There is no truth to the fact that I recommended Prateik for the movie. I think he is naturally talented as I previously worked with him in 'Jaane Tu...Ya Jaane Na'. He is very charming and I think he has a great future," said Rahman.<br /><br />In "Ek Deewana Tha", Prateik has been cast opposite British model Amy Jackson. The film, directed by Gautham Menon, is a Hindi remake of his own Tamil film "Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa".<br /><br />-*-<br />Sonam's mantra - be friendly!<br />In an industry where people play the numbers game, actress Sonam Kapoor believes in being friendly.<br /><br />"Almost all of my directors are my friends. Be it Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra or Punit Malhotra, they all are dear friends. Even all my male co-stars are my friends," Sonam said at a recent event.<br /><br />As for her female friends in B-Town, she said: "I am most close to Jacqueline (Fernandes) and Asin (Thottumkal). In fact, these two are doing a movie ('Housefull 2') together and I am so jealous of them!"<br /><br />The actress, who is looking forward to her film "Players", is set to don the garb of Santa, and play peacemaker between two friends on UTV Stars' new show "Superstar Santa".<br />"My episode has two girls whose friendship is broken due to misunderstanding. My job is to bring them together and try to understand what went wrong," said Sonam, who insists she tries her best to be there for her own friends despite being busy.<br />"I have a huge bunch of friends and I am always there for them whenever needed," she added.</p>
