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.

It looks like Diwali and the New Year has rung in new movies for our stars.

Abhishek Bachchan started shooting for the remake of The Italian Job in Goa. 'am shooting for PLAYERS directed by Abbas Mustan. starring Sonam Kapoor, Bipasha, Sikandar, Neil, Omi vaidya and bobby deol,' he tweeted.

Co-star Sonam Kapoor tweeted her bit as well: 'Dancing with @juniorbachchan both of us are trying to make our long limbs shake gracefully.'

Akshay Kumar started work on Desi Boyz with John Abraham. He tweeted: 'New Year! New Movie! Jus startd shootin Desi Boyz wiv my old flirt from Garam Masala dayz Big John ;)'

His co-star Deepika Padukone tweeted: 'Day one of #desi boyz with akshay and john...super excited!wish us luck guys:-)'

Shabana Azmi used the social platform to congratulate Boney Kapoor's son Arjun, who bagged three films with Yash Raj Films. 'Mother India Mona Kapoorji Congratulations on son Arjun bagging 3 films with YashRaj on his own merit.bahut saari duayein,' she tweeted.

Dostana director Tarun Mansukhani is betting his money and eyeballs on the new Deol production. He tweeted, 'Hey Guys, check out the promo for 'Yamla Pagla Deewana' on youtube.... Its howlarious!! Now that's a film I want to see!!!!'

Are you guys looking forward to these exciting films?

Photographer Atul Kasbekar is responsible for bringing the sexy Yana Gupta back in circulation. He tweeted, 'And on a very happy note, the fabulous Yana Gupta is back in town n is now represented exclusively by Bling! And yes she's just as stunning!'

Lisa Ray is in town as well, and she tweeted about the endorsements she's working on: 'Here's my Pocohantas impression...and a sneak peek of the upcoming 'Umlimited Spirit' Rado campaign...

'Shooting for Lifecell tomorrow in Bombay, and keeping it real as a covert agent of change,' she added.

Not that keeping it real stopped Lisa from cracking us up. 'My favourite Obamaism is about Humayun's Tomb in Delhi. 'Good Contractor' he cracked,' she tweeted, treating us to another, 'Overheard: with marriage, a woman goes from the attention of many men to the inattention of one.'

We like. We like!

Neil Nitin Mukesh chose Golmaal 3 over the other Diwali release, Action Replayy. 'Saw golmaal 3. What a totally awesome and hilarious film. Loved the entire cast specially mr johnny lever and mithun da!'

Meanwhile, Priyanka Chopra had a 'wicked' evening in London. 'Awesome evening. Watched the show 'wicked' with mom my friend natasha, kabir and udaychopra ! Super fun evening.

Shabana Azmi, Javed Akhtar and Aamir Khan were Bollywood's representatives at the dinner for US President Barrack Obama on Monday night.

Azmi tweeted in her tongue-n-cheek fashion, 'Guys I'm not a reporter n hve no intentions of describing d menu clothes etc of Obama dinner at PM.yes all guests did speak 2 Prez n wife.'

But later, she relented, and shared her emotions on the occasion. 'India used 2 b recipient of USA aid 2 day we r in a position 2 provide jobs 2 USA so a confident India welcomes Obama with her head held hi'

Well, lets hope Javed Akhtar and Aamir Khan are more eloquent on the matter!

A few samples:
'Read this somewhere .. Pray not for things .. But for wisdom and courage..'

'Be kinder than necessary'

'Give people a second chance .. Not a third !'

'In life learn the rules .... Then break some ;)'
