Fashion Police: Kajol’s fashion faux pas Get the latest News and Gossip on Bollywood actors and actresses
Some days back Kajol was spotted looking gorgeous wearing a floral print saree and a great up hairdo. But when she turned around, there was this glaring difference in color on her neck where the very fair makeup line ended.
She is one star who was comfortable in her skin. Looks like her makeup person still is concerned about the ‘fair and lovely’ syndrome predominant in the Bollywood industry.

Katrina wants to do a Chandni for SRK
Speaking about her experience on the sets, Katrina informed Mumbai Mirror, "I shot with Shah Rukh for five days before my Ek Tha tiger schedule in Cuba . We had never worked before.
And I tend to be a bit reserved on the sets. Shah Rukh has shot several times with Yashji.
This is my first. But I was made to feel at home from Day 1.
Shah Rukh is very helpful. He is helping me understand my character better.
" Katrina, who has donned the quintessential chiffon saree a couple of times in her previous films, will be seen as the archetypal Yash Chopra seductress, the unattainable beauty in this one. "The role requires Katrina to work on her body language.
Shah Rukh, who has seen several heroines including Kajol , Juhi Chawla , Madhuri Dixit and Preity Zinta transform into Yashraj goddesses, is helping Kat with the same," informed a friend of the actress. In fact, Katrina, revealed the friend, wants this film to do for her what Chandni did for Sridevi.
Responding to the intense speculation about her southern projects, Katrina said, she is devoting all her time and attention to the film at the moment. "I can't take up any other assignment till this is over.
I would be doing injustice to this film if I did. It is best that I surrender completely to this film.
I can feel it will be special," added Katrina
(less)Ajay Devgan's holy birthday plans
The unit members attributed Ajay's outing to the Navaratra festivities, but it is also to do with his birthday today. "A special puja was performed in the temple premises and the actor stayed there for quite some time," said a source.
Even the crowds at the temple could not deter him from going there. Unfazed, the actor stood outside the temple with his hands folded.
'Jai mata di', is what he uttered before getting into the temple premises. Later, he obliged his fans with autographs," said a source.
The actor had planned to visit the shrine on the last day of Navaratra, but the local crew advised him to go a day in advance as it gets too crowded then. "His wife Kajol would be joining him soon, so Ajay had planned the outing accordingly.
He is expected to pay a visit to the temple today, on his birthday, with the family," said a source. With a red chunni draped around his neck and vermilion on the forehead, Ajay came out smiling.
"He took extra prasad for other actors and crew members," said a source. We heard Ajay often fasts during Navratras and is a staunch devotee of mata.
He also prayed for the success of "Son of Sardar"," a unit member said. The temple sees lot of devotees from places across India.
Also, what caught Ajay's interest was the traditional rituals, which are performed at the temple
(less)Why should I be wary of praising Modi: Ajay
A three-release year seems like a lean one for you, after a six-release one. I want to come down to two! Hamari life mein bhaag daud kitni hai.
Do mahine se ghar nahi gaya hoon; just went for one day. I've been in Patiala all this time, shooting for "Sardar".
For 50 days I didn't even watch TV! I've been completely disconnected. You don't get shot at home for such prolonged absence? Nahi, ghar pe daant nahi padti, but I myself realize that I need to spend more time at home.
I do manage. Sometimes they come for the outdoor; they came there (Patiala) for 7-8 days.
Bachchon ke school bhi hai na, they can't take too many holidays. When did you last have to attend a parent-teacher meeting? Umm.
..
one and a half years ho gaya! I went for a function about three months back, though. My daughter insisted.
What's your Gujarat project about? Was rather surprising to see you at the press conference on solar projects there. Hats off to Modi to create a project like this, frankly.
..
I came to know that they were coming up with these tenders etc for solar power projects as a policy. I had partners who'd handled projects in power earlier.
The policy seemed very clear, so we asked for a meeting. We went there and said we're interested, our company fits into all the criteria that have been laid out.
He saw all that, and he said, done. I asked, who do we need to meet now? He said, you've met, it's done, now we'll follow up and coordinate, you don't have to come back.
They're so pro-business. Gujarat is the only state where there's no deficit of power, and now they're selling it outside.
And I believe in solar; I have had it in my farm, my home, even when it was far more expensive. So this excited me, both personally, and because the policies were very clear, very etched out.
For a long while, the political fallout of being seen near Modi, let alone so unequivocally in praise of Modi, would be a deterrent; but first Mr Bachchan, and now you, have been quite unapologetic about that. Look, I really don't know, I don't really bother about that, because the fact is that I am not getting politically involved in anything.
My funda is clear. As far as business goes, he's a fabulous businessman, he's doing great for Gujarat.
So I don't see a problem, why would anyone? Baaki politics hamari samajh mein aata nahi hai, aur na humko samajhna hai. Kajol's been quite low profile recently.
Yes, after Yug, she wanted to take it easy for a while. She's occupied with the child.
And she's happy that way, right now. The industry is obsessed with the word 'comeback'.
You must hear it often in her context? 'Comeback'. Yes (laughs).
Yeh word samajh mein nahi aata mujhe. Waise toh Kajol ne teen comeback kiye hain! I think the audience has changed.
Pehle kehte thay ki actresses ki ek age limit hoti hai. Now it is much better.
But only for those actresses who are known as actresses. If you've survived only on glamour , then you can't get older and still carry on.
For that, you need to be an actress. The others complain, this is not fair, but then they have to realise that you have to be an actress actress.
Who are the actress actresses today, then? Don't even go there. Hardly find any.
In today's time, hardly any. They all have their plus points, all are successful.
But if you say actress - not really. In today's time? Yesteryear's cinema had more appreciation for acting skills as opposed to vital stats, you mean? See, shuru se it has been there.
There have been actresses, and there have been good looking glamorous girls, and both have worked. In the really older days, you weren't wearing a bikini, you weren't showing off your body, so khubsoorti toh chahiye thi, lekin performance chahiye tha to last.
What's your position on the whole " The Dirty Picture " telecast drama? I don't know what to say on this. I believe the theme of the movie was an issue.
But that argument will never end. I'm seeing promos on TV that have explicit and suggestive language - I don't understand how they're OK for TV if a movie like that isn't.
Talking of National Award winning movies not being fit for telecast, are you aware that " Omkara " has not been approved for telecast till date? Kumar Mangat (the producer) says that he's placed all the cuts he's been asked to, and submitted it six times, but it hasn't been cleared for screening on TV. No, I didn't know that! There's no vulgarity in "Omkara"; once you edit the expletives out, what would the problem be?

(less)Mother is now not a long-suffering martyr
On Mother's Day, on-screen mothers feel that there's a sea-change in the way mothers are portrayed in Bollywood ..
. Shabana Azmi: "The mother in Hindi cinema has always been an avtar of Mother India, strong, principled, the chief custodian of the errant son's morality.
Given to sacrifice and hardship, she battles all odds to bring up her children. Today she is changing whilst essentially retaining the core values.
Dolly Ahluwalia in Vicky Donor drinks along with her mother-in-law whilst an indulgent son says, "She works so hard a drink relaxes her." She runs a beauty parlour, has a short temper, screams at her son but has a heart of gold and after initial resistance supports her son in his decisions.
Kajol in My Name Is Khan is a working mother far removed from the coughing hapless Leela Chitnis. Long before these, Waheeda Rehman in Trishul is a revolutionary mother who challenges her son to seek revenge for his desertion 'nahi to main doodh maaf nahi karoongi' Salim-Javed's mother-figure was always central to the story line, particularly in Deewaar .
Since my first film Shyam Benegal's Ankur I have been claiming 'yeh bachcha mera hai' as the raison d'etre for keeping the child from an illicit relationship. I upheld a woman's right to determine the fate of her womb in Mrinal Sen's Genesis, Prakash Jha's Mrityudand and Kalpana Lajmi's Ek Pal.
Zarina Wahab: "I lately played Shah Rukh Khan's and Hrithik Roshan's mother in My Name Is Khan and Agneepath , respectively. I had more to do than mothers do in films these days.
Screen mothers have been completely marginalized. Nowadays children don't need their mothers to guide them beyond a point.
And if the mother tries to make her presence felt the the children say, 'Mom, give us space'. Movies are doing just that.
They are letting mothers be. There isn't much for them to do.
Earlier there used to be a strong emotional track with the mothers. Nowadays moms are too cool, if they're there at all.
In Shristi Behl's I Me Aur Main, I play John Abraham's mother. It's a different kind of equation.
When she visits her son he feels crowded. Moms are no longer indispensable.
" Lilette Dubey: "There's a sea-change in the way mothers are portrayed. We at least recognize to some extent that a mother is an individual with her own needs and identity.
They're no longer the long-suffering martyrs. They're more real.
More today. The mother I played in Gadar is a far cry from Monsoon Wedding or even My Brother Nikhil.
But they are nonetheless mothers with their own strong individual characters."
