Mallika, Vidya are absolute fakes

These two dames have been written about before on this blog. Here we are again, repeating and stressing why Mallika Sherawat and Vidya Balan are prime contenders for the 'BooBollywood Queen' title (ok I just thought that up).

That Sherawat is no teen queen, or even a 20s beauty', has been mentioned by many bloggers before. I'll just beat the topic to death, to prove why women in Bollywood cannot get away with lying about their ages. Booby beauty Mallika claims she's still only 25. Oh really? Many have thrown up this photograph below as proof against. It was taken when the Kissing Queen was 23, working for an Indian airline, in the year 1994 no less. So do the simple math, and what have we? But very well-maintained for a woman in her mid-30s, she surely is, as seen in the photo alongside.



As for Vidya Balan, I'll just do you and myself a favour and quote from www.bollywoodblog.com. " ...Vidya Balan, who claims that she is 24 years old, but what the actress is forgetting is her past when she began her career in Ekta Kapoor's 'Hum Paanch', the Indian television comedy that was shot in the 1990s in which she played Radhika, one of the five sisters. While shooting for the comedy series Vidya was 21 years old so is it possible that after a span of 9 years she is just 24? Looks like Vidya too is suffering the Mallika Sherawat syndrome."

I rest my case.

At least Mallika looks young and hot and very 20s-ish, but Vidya's maturity just drips from her face like her character's tears in 'Parineeta'. Come off it girls! Even Kareena Kapoor admits she's 27.

To add salt to the wound, I'll leave you with the latest report (from Bombay's 'Mid-Day' newspaper) about 'goody-goody' Vids - "The sets of 'Salaam-E-Ishq' are abuzz with rumours of the budding friendship between John Abraham and Vidya Balan. Our source there reveals that even though the crew packed up and returned to Mumbai last Friday, John and Vidya preferred to stay back in Goa. Says our khabru, "Even when the camera was not rolling, Vidya would talk to John with a lot of 'adaayein'. John seemed to be enjoying every bit of the attention. Their chemistry has to be seen to believed."

And the clincher - "...the actors were shooting for a romantic scene, where the shot required them to be under a dupatta. The source reveals that even after Nikhil (Advani, the director) called 'cut', John and Vidya remained under the chunri for one full minute."

And to think we bloggers wrote about this long before the papers caught the buzz. Scroll down this page for proof.

Kangana Ranaut - a dress miss



I'm unhealthily obssessed with our stars wardrobes, and I know my blog is one superficial, appearance-oriented, judgemental, crazy, bitchy pad. But what the hell, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do right? So here it is - after Bipasha-Sameera and Koena-Isha caught wearing the same ugly dresses, the latest style icon on the block, the fresh faced Kangana Ranaut (think 'Gangster', 'Woh Lamhe') turns out in the same not-so-bad blue dress worn by another 'unknown' model-starlet (her face's familiar, it's just that I don't know the poor thing's name).

What, they all shop at the same boutiqe in Bandra? The only difference being in the way, umm... the dress grasps their respective boob areas. Kangana, you and your curly mop oughta go shopping in Paris or New York from now on, like the other A-listers. You've had a meteoric rise to the top, now dress that way girl!

Most beautiful woman? Ash is one ugly chick





Now look, I am not one of those can't-stand-the-sight-of-that-artificial-Aishwarya-Rai types. In fact, I don't mind the woman at all. She's quite a looker ('most beautiful woman in the world' being debatable), and in the hands the right director (literally), she can give even Shabana Azmi a run for her money.

So what do you figure out from her latest appearance at the 'Umrao Jaan' music lauch. At this rate, I predict she'll end up looking like Janice Dickinson in a few years. Dick who?? That's America's ugliest 'supermodel' in the picture on the right. Separated at birth?

PS: Isn't that too cosy a grab from Amitabh Bachchan, at a babe who might soon - supposedly - be his daughter-in-law?

Trisha or Asin - Who's hotter?



Ok, these aren't really the latest photos, but a couple from the South Indian Filmfare Awards which happened last month. These ladies are Trisha and Asin respectively, two of the hottest properties down south. Both are in high demand, both are in their early-20s (though some sites dispute Asin to be 1981-born), both act in all the four South Indian language movies, and both have starred opposite the biggest male stars and with the biggest banners.

Now if those are not impressive resumes, what is? All Southie-turned-Bollywood queens - Vyjayanthimala Bali, Hema Malini, Rekha, Sridevi - started out this way. Hence, we can expect these two lasses, no less talented, making inroads into Hindi cinema soon. Why, Asin is already in demand with the likes of Aamir Khan and Abhishek Bachchan.

So who do you think will come out tops? Here's a relative hit-and-miss:

TRISHA:
- Was Miss Salem Steel City, Miss Chennai 1999, and Miss Beautiful Smile at Miss India 2000.
- Best Debut Actress 2003, Best actress 2004 and 2006 (Telugu) at the South Indian Filmfares.
- She replaced Asin in 'Stalin' (2006), starring Chiranjeevi.

ASIN:
- Was a model and businesswoman before turning to acting. Speaks all the South Indian languages, Hindi, English, Sanskrit and French.
- Aamir Khan called her personally and congratulated her on her performance in the Tamil film 'Ghajini'. She will most likely star opposite Aamir in the Hindi remake of the same film.
- She replaced Trisha in 'Maja', starring National Award winner Vikram.

Look at me, drawing up biodatas of these girls. Whatever happened to by bitchy edge? Shit, I'm losing it...

Diya Mirza, Rajkumar Hirani an item?



Owl face Diya Mirza and producer-director Rajkumar Hirani at some event together, looking all smily-touchy-feely. Think there's something going on between them, considering that she's done his films 'Lage Raho Munnabhai' and 'Parineeta' (which he produced)?? You tell me.
