If you don't have Twitter yet...why not? It is the safe way of stalking celebs now, hehe. Now, I understand that some people may not want to join. Most people join because of a certain celeb.
I'm *not* going to lie because I'm guilty too. Jay Sean is the reason for me joining. For those who want to add me on Twitter, it is http://twitter.com/apunbindaas
Since so many celebs are joining Twitter now, I thought I'll just list the Desi celebs. Please feel free to add on to this list.
All of the following have been confirmed one way or the other. I tried my best to list some noteable films/music of each star, along with well-known people in his/her life.
Special thanks to Kiran & Filmizest for more celebs' Twitters
