Ameesha Patel is a friend in deed, cares for best buddy Maanayata Dutt and even gets her an iPad

Ameesha Patel is the best friend a girl can ask for. She is caring for the pregnant Maanayata Dutt like only a true BFF can.

I'm there for you!
The actress is not only planning a baby shower for her galpal when she enters the seventh month of pregnancy, but is also ensuring that the mother-to-be is comfortable in every possible way in her everyday life.

When Mrs Dutt developed swollen feet, the actress got her an iPad so she could laze in bed and surf. It also had the net card loaded so Maana didn't have to do anything but switch on her new gizmo.

Watch over her
Sanjay Dutt has been out of the country for over a month now and though he is constantly in touch with Maana over the phone, nothing can make up for his physical presence. So he has requested the actress to watch over his biwi. And Ameesha has been taking her job very seriously.

Says a source, "Last week, Mrs Dutt's domestics fell ill. So she had to tend to herself and the stress sent her blood pressure soaring. The star wife was advised bed rest for three days. Ameesha rushed over, ensured her friend rested and fussed over her."

Home delivery
She has also been getting Maana dinner from her fav suburban restaurants as she can't travel. As for the baby shower, the actress loves parties and has taken it upon herself to plan it to the minutest detail.

The Ameesha-Maanayata bonding began after the former shot with Dutt for a film. When Patel's grandmother died last week, Maana was one of the few people she called.

B-Town's biggest geek, Uday Chopra lists his favourite applications on the iPad.

1. The first thing I use in the morning is the RSS Reader, where I can read all the newspapers. Instead of going out and buying a newspaper like MiD Day, I read it on my iPad. There's a better application called Pulse now, which I don't have on my iPad.

2. Another app I really like and use a lot while travelling is Flight Track Pro. It is great when you are travelling to far away destinations. It has flight plans and alerts you when your flight is late. Also helpful if you have to pick someone up from the airport.

3. Script Pro is a very interesting application, and you can sit and write your scripts in the industry format. It's so portable that you can write a script anywhere from a coffee shop to a train and a car.

4. I love a few games like Words With Friends and Plants Vs Zombie. Words With Friends is like a Scrabble game across the network and the whole wide world. I play with friends and strangers. Plants Vs Zombie is addictive as you have these zombies attacking you. You have to use the plants to kill them.

5. Though I mostly tweet from my phone, sometimes I use an application called Osfora. It's not the best for Twitter but the larger screen helps. I would love to have the Zinio application too where one can download all the magazines. iPad is good for reading and content creation.
