May 29th 2010 Deepika Padukone plays a freedom fighter in Gowariker’s next
Deepika Padukone is all set to appear in a totally non-glamorous avatar in Ashutosh Gowariker’s period epic ‘Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Se’, where she plays the role of a revolutionary named Kalpana Datta for which she has draped in traditional Bengali saris. Designer Neeta Lulla has dressed Deepika for the film and is said to have done research before finalising Deepika’s Bengali look.
“It is a single pallu drape, twice over the shoulder. When she was doing her action sequences, like any other normal sari, we tucked it around her waist,” Lulla said. For Deepika, doing all their stunts in a sari, draped in the traditional way, was a challenge because every time Deepika was to run, the sari would come in her way.
This period film is based on Manini Chatterjee’s book ‘Do and Die: The Chittagong Uprising 1930- 34’ and Deepika’s character Kalpana was a strong and independent woman who joined the mutiny because she believed in the cause.
“Kalpana is not the kind of woman who will sit at home waiting for her husband to return,” says Deepika about her character.
Deepika’s athletic background helped her with the action sequences. “It is nice to do your own stunts given the challenges they offer. I am very spontaneous and did not need the help of a body double,” she said.

Much had been said about Deepika Padukone stealing away the show from the former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan with her traditional Indian look. Now, Ash has taken up the opportunity to silence her critics and she appeared in a true Indian flavour as the trailer of Mani Ratnam’s bilingual Raavan/Raavanan was screened to the media at the 63rd Cannes Film Festival.

May 17th 2010 Deepika Padukone’s traditional look wins over Ash’s western one at Cannes
Aishwarya Rai has been attending the Cannes film festival since 2002 as the global face of L`Oreal but drew critical applauds only last year when she wore a white off-shoulder Roberto Cavalli. This year, though her outfit was impressive but her puffy hairdo got some her some negative compliments as well.
The actress who won the hearts of millions this year with her very first red carpet appearance at the Cannes International Film Festival was the 24-year-old Deepika Padukone who looked stunningly elegant in her off white, slightly embroidered saree with touches of gold, with a broad hand cuff, Kundan earrings and a stone encrusted clutch. Deepika is attending the event as the face of liquor brand Chivas Regal.
Take a look at what various designers have to say about her traditional look as compared to Ash’s western outfit:
“She was wearing a saree and I think that`s an appropriate outfit for any Indian diva walking an international platform. It was a nice off-white saree with a sexy blouse, making the look exude a good amount of glitz and glamour,” said designer Charu Parashar.
Designer Nida Mahmood said: “Deepika is a beautiful woman and was looking stunning in a saree. It`s a very nice outfit that brings out the real form of a woman. It`s sensual and elegant and if you can carry it well it makes you look awesome.”
Rohit Bal, who designed Deepika`s look for the event, had said: “As a designer, who has been observing fashion since the last 25 years, I think the only one super star at this time at Cannes is going to be Deepika Padukone. There`s nobody better than Deepika to break the rules and it`s going to attract a lot of attention.”
Designer Kapil and Monika say, “Aishwarya Rai’s beautiful gown’s colour matched her skin tone, but the hair do was a turn off. She’s got a fuller face and a high hairdo highlighted its roundness. The neatness of the hairstyle is also questionable.” Designer Reynu Tandon also feels her hairstyle is dated but Ash looked good overall, “Her hair isn’t stylised as per 2010 trends but it is suiting her face,” says the designer.
“Deepika gets thumbs up as she knows what looks good on her. Keeping it traditional is a very good idea. When it comes to international events like Cannes, it is always safe to keep away from experiments and sari has a modern yet traditional charm to it,” says Ekta Bhardwaj, creative writer with a fashion magazine.
Whereas designers Kapil and Monica feel, “Deepika’s make-up for Cannes was extremely garish making her look a tone darker than her actual complexion, her sari had no element of glam, and was wrongly accessorised with gold jewellery.”

May 14th 2010 The superhero costume of ‘Ra 1′ has become a pain for SRK
Shah Rukh Khan’s superhero costume in ‘Ra 1’ is worth Rs 1 crore. Silvery blue in color, the special suit is made of latex and was created specially for the actor in Los Angeles. However, getting into his hi-fi costume is not a kid’s play for the actor as getting into this thick rubber tight fitting is such a tedious job that it takes nearly 40 minutes. On top of this, the rubber suit sticks to his body and that makes the heat of Mumbai even more unbearable for the actor.
Also, since getting in and out of the suit is such a tedious job, the actor restricts his trip to the restroom only once during the shooting shift. Given that the shift usually extends to 10-12 hours everyday, one has to admit it is quite painful. Well, the actor surely believes in the saying that ‘only pains lead to gains’.

May 13th 2010 Bipasha Basu gets a total makeover for ‘Lamhaa’
‘Lamhaa’ will see the Bong beauty Bipasha Basu in a completely new makeover and style. The glam doll plays a modern politically active Kashmiri girl named ‘Aziza’ and has tried not only burkha but also green contact lenses for the role. The film has her in plain salwar kurtas with PT shoes, and a dupatta on her head.
Talking about her looks in the film, Bips says, “She is not dainty so don’t expect a Kashmir-ki-kali kind of look. I also wore lots of printed, colourful dupattas with plain earthy-coloured salwar kurtas. Everything was loose and oversized. I could wear nothing fitted in this film.”
Both burkha and green contact lenses are for the first time for Bips who says, “I wear green contact lenses for the film. I am used to wearing lenses in films but I have to say the green lenses looked really good. Rocky got me the burkha. I have never worn it ever before.”
Rocky S, who has designed Bipasha’s look in the film says, “Since the character is a complex strong individual my motive was to portray Aziza’s essence to the tee. My research included a lot of intricate detailing taking into consideration the kind of fabrics and colours that are preferred by Kashmiri locals.
Tweed phirans in dull earthy tones along with kurtas were used to show a clear distinction over the seasons through autumn to winter. Bipasha’s accessories and burkhas were authentically purchased from Kashmiri shops in and around Lal Chowk and Dal Lake.”

May 11th 2010 Bipasha Basu gets her ears pierced
There is a new addition is sultry Bong beauty Bipasha Basu’s life. Nope, you guessed it wrong. It is not some hot hunk but an ear piercing done by Bips at the behest of her younger sister Vijayeta.
The actress says, “I got my ears pierced on the upper lobes and I love my new piercings! I got inspired by my sister Vijayeta who came back from London with four piercings!”
“I am very scared of even injections so it was a brave and spontaneous decision for me. I got it done at Dr Meena Makheja’s place. My friends, Rocky (the designer) and Binal held my hands through the entire process. Now my ears are almost healed and I am wearing little diamonds for now. I am waiting for them to heal completely so I can sport some cool diamond baalis,” she adds.
However, though Bips loves her new piercing, she has no intentions of getting any more additions. She says, “I have all I want for now and that’s all I want… No more. Even this has to heal fully. It hurts slightly even now when I sleep on my side.”
About beau John’s reactions on her new look, Bipasha is quick to add, “John likes everything I do. He liked the piercing.”

May 7th 2010 Divya Dutta goes sensuous for ‘Hisss’
That ‘Hiss’, the independent co-production between the USA and India, directed by Jennifer Chambers Lynch, will have some very hot and bold scenes from Mallika Sherawat, our desi sex kitten, is stale now. Whats new and fresh is that the movie also has some very hot and sensuous scenes from Divya Dutta, too, as claimed by the makers of the movie. The scenes are far more subtle in appeal but yet too hot to resist.
The movie also has one of the boldest and longest love-making scene between Divya and Irrfan Khan. The scene was shot in Kerala sometime ago. Initially both Irrfan and Divya had reservations about shooting the scene as it was very long and passionate, had to be shot in front of the entire unit and the director had instructed them to remain in that position and not to break the lip-lock until she asked them to do so. Nevertheless, the scene was shot perfectly.
Talking about the scene, Irrfan Khan said, “Yes, we do have a very lengthy and passionate kiss, but it was the requirement of the script. In the film we both go through some crisis and the love-making scene happens after that.”
“We had to shoot the passionate love-making scene in front of the entire unit, it was very embarrassing. We were not allowed to take a break,” he added.
The film starring Irrfan Khan, Mallika Sherawat, Divya Dutta and Jeff Doucette, is based on the legend of Naga and is about the revenge of a snake woman whose mate is captured by an American hunte
