Written by salima on May 29th, 2009

Cannes was full of glitz and glam this year with Bollywood right on the front seat as Sharmila Tagore judged the films, Aishwarya Rai walked the red carpet representing L’Oreal and Hrithik Roshan promoted his upcoming film Kites. So did they rock the red carpet or fall flat? Read on to find out! Sharmila Tagore [...]

Singh Is Kinng

Written by salima on August 9th, 2008

After such an incredible line-up of hits (excluding Tashan) it’s no wonder Akshay Kumar’s next flick has been hyped up through the roof. At the same time, Anees Bazmee who directed two massive hits in the past few years is at the helm of this project. But is it as great as it has been [...]

Who’s Hot Who’s Not (Jaane Tu Premiere)

Written by salima on July 19th, 2008

Whenever I think Vidya Balan is starting to develop her own style and looking great, she shows up to an event looking like this. I cannot emphasize the need for her to wear colour! Seriously Vidya, you’re not some 50 year old depressed amma. Please dress your age and hire a stylist!!! Rating: NOT HOT!

Who’s Hot Who’s Not (IIFA 2008)

Written by salima on July 14th, 2008

Abhishek and Aishwarya walked IIFA’s green carpet as usual, hand in hand. Thus, I’ll critique their fashion statements together. Firstly, Abhishek looked amazing sporting this black tux on his newly toned body. Aishwarya on the other hand, looked quite disappointing to me. The red Dior gown is too big and weird on her that she [...]

Who’s Hot Who’s Not (Zee Cine Awards 2008)

Written by salima on May 7th, 2008

If anybody knows about fashion in Bollywood, it’s none other than Diya Mirza who somehow manages to look dazzling at each and every event. The white dress is simply exquisite with the fun ruffles at the bottom and the black lace waist band. The only thing that would make this look hotter than it already [...]

Who’s Hot Who’s Not (Lakme Fashion Week 2008)

Written by salima on April 17th, 2008

Bollywood stars showed up to this season’s famous Lakme Fashion Show, some making us smile in admiration, and others… laugh at their disastrous attempts! Let’s see how they all did… I don’t know why, but this look doesn’t sit right with me. Maybe it’s the gaudy colour and ginormous earrings, but I think Kajol could [...]

Who’s Hot Who’s Not (2nd November – 10th November)

Written by salima on November 11th, 2007

Amisha Patel was seen at the much anticipated Saawariya premiere wearing this sheer pink sari. Soft pink is a nice colour on her, although I don’t particularly like the sari in general. The blouse is extremely shiny and revealing. I know that many actresses have been wearing these miniscule sari blouses lately, but Amisha seems [...]

Who’s Hot Who’s Not (21st October – 2nd November)

Written by salima on November 3rd, 2007

Deepika Padukone definitely knows how to make a simple outfit look classy and stylish. Moreover, unlike other stars, she knows that subtlety is the key to making an outfit look beautiful. Wearing a plain white button down blouse, and black pants, it would have been hard to mess up such a simple outfit. To dress [...]

Who’s Hot Who’s Not (24th September – 20th October)

Written by salima on October 24th, 2007

Sadly, Neha Dhupia wore this hideous outfit to MTV’s Style Awards. For starters, the top is way too tight for her which makes the blouse look so stretched as if the buttons are going to pop off any minute. The belt is simply ugly and the rose looks so random hanging off her breast. Not [...]

Fashion Faux Pas!

Written by salima on April 7th, 2007

Tanushree Dutta was seen at a music launch sporting this atrocious, so called “outfit”. There is absolutely nothing right about the outfit! It looks like a rainbow gone horribly wrong. Where should I begin? The neckline is utterly blinding with the embedded golden beads. Instead of bringing the attention to her pretty face, the first [...]

Water

Starring: Seema Biswas, Lisa Ray, John Abraham and SaralaDirector: Deepa Mehta All religions have a dark part of their history which might not be the most celebrated. As time goes on, circumstances change and times change, forcing age-old traditions to vanish. In Water, director Deepa Mehta sheds light on an aspect of Hinduism that is [...]
