NOV 25 - Like everyone else, vivacious Bipasha Basu is also
looking forward to the release of her much-talked-about
film Dhoom2.
The Bengali beauty plays a cop in
the film and says she enjoyed it to the core. “The timing
was fantastic for me because I was getting fit so I guess
Adi chose me because I fitted into the physique of the
character. It was a sheer delight to be the part of this
film,” she evinces.
Being an adventurous person, Bipasha always wanted to be
a part of an action flick. “I had forced myself to get
comfortable with Bollywood naach gaana because initially I
could not identify myself with doing that. But then I
understood that the essence of Bollywood is naach gaana and
yet with time I can always choose to do different kinds of
role,” she explains.
So how was it shooting in bikini? “I did my bikini shot in
Durban and let me tell you, shooting in a bikini is not
easy,” comes the quick confession. She further adds, “It is
just not about being conscious but about the fitness level
you have to reach. And three days of eating oranges,
working out thrice a day and going paranoid, ‘am I fat’.
I did not want to look very oomphy I wanted to look
athletic, I do not know what the final result is, but for
me I wanted to be a Cameron Diaz, I did not want to be a
Pamela Anderson.” The dusky actress also gives due credit
to the director for making her bikini look very athletic.
“It is difficult working out so many times a day and not
eating when everyone is gorging on food,” she recollects
with a smile. (Content sourced from: IndiaFM)
An
onscreen kiss has sent Bollywood’s hottest romance tumbling
into rough weather. The year-long Abhishek
Bachchan-Aishwarya Rai relationship recently hit turbulence
when the Bachchans were invited to Yashraj Studio for an
exclusive preview of Dhoom2 . Aishwarya too had flown down
from Jaipur where she is shooting for Ashutosh Gowarikar’s
Akbar-Jodha with Hrithik.
Sources said Aishwarya's liplock with Hrithik in the film
didn't go down well with the Bachchans. And the entire
family of actors was not appreciative of Ash’s acting
prowess in the said scene. Until now Aishwarya, despite
offers from Hollywood, had steadfastly maintained a
no-kissing policy.
A close family friend confirms that though he was aware
there were some passionate scenes between Hrithik and Ash,
Abhishek was "very, very upset" on seeing the finished
product. The full impact hit him only when he saw it on
screen, says the friend, and he made his objection clear to
Aishwarya.
Over the week, instead of celebrating the release of yet
another film featuring them together, Aishwarya and
Abhishek have been confronting uncomfortable questions that
the kiss has thrown up in their relationship. Sources said
her skimpy costumes too have not gone down well with the
first family of Bollywood. "They are wondering where was
the need for Aishwarya to change her demure image at this
stage and agree to a full-blown kiss on film," said the
friend.
While Ash is maintaining a studied silence on the
controversy, she reportedly attended the birthday party of
the children of Abhishek’s sister, Shveta Nanda at her
residence in Delhi, and was said to have behaved as if
nothing was amiss. When asked about the kissing scene,
Ash’s co-star and Abhishek’s childhood buddy Hrithik simply
laughed it off and refused to comment. Obviously, Abhishek
fails to find the humor in it. (Content sourced from:
