Deepika Padukone in Lafangey Parindey does the blind act with grace!!!

Posted: 22 Jul 2010 03:17 AM PDT

Lafangey Parindey

After Rani Mukherji and Kajol, being the blind ladies of Bollywood, its time for Deepika to prove her mettle in the blind act. In her upcoming flick, she plays the role of blind girl.

In Lafangey Parindey, she has been paired with Neil Nitin Mukesh.

Deepika, plays the role of a Ghati girl,Pinky Palkar who is blind. She attributes the naturalness of the character to her maid, from whom she picked up the acute details of the usual Ghati women.

Though, the role demanded strenuous physical toil but thanks to her atheletic streak, she didn't have too many problems in this new lifestyle. Deepika closely watched and observed and did an extensive research on the behavior of visually handicapped to get to the tee of the role. She had a tough time to do this role as she was not supposed to wear black glasses or take a stick to add to her blindness.

As the director of the movie puts it, her character was supposed to see the practicality of life even with her blindness.

Neil Nitin Mukesh plays the role of Nandu or "one shot nandlal" who is a blind fold wrestler. Though, Deepika was a bit skeptical about his casting but soon was surprised by his performance. Hope that the hype created is worth a watch!

 Katrina Kaif

Hold your horses before you start getting too excited! It is not the real Ms. Katrina in the video but just a very eager-to-shed-her-clothes look-alike. The babe in the video is seen having sex with a lot of guys present in the room.

It has though upset the Karina and the people close to her who blame the devious minds of trying to get publicity. But however the clip has caused the tongues to wag.

Katrina in her defense has said that the girl in the video does not look like her at all and comparisons are being drawn only because the girl is fair.

This is the second time something like this has happened to Katrina’s family after her sister’s porn clips were released years back. Infact such scandals are not new in India as Mallika Sherawat and Preity Zinta have all had to go through the same trauma.

Sheena Nayar would present her debute with the PPC Horrortainment movie "8".

The PPC Horrertainment is a division of Percerpt Picture Company and assocition of Glorious Entertainment would be creating the scary movie "8".

Actress Shhena Nayar was selected for the movie because the script needed a new face.

Wilson Louis, the director tells us that Sheena’s character in the movie is very intense and strong.

"Nowadays when trends and cliches no longer work in the industry, I thought picking up horror as my first film would create intrigue and interest not only in the film but also in me" says Sheena.

Old Bollywood was a fan of scary movies. Namely Madhumati, Mera Saaya, who Kaun Thi and Bees Saal Baad.

In the present era, horror flicks have somehow failed to deliver the spooks to the audience except in a few movies like Raaz and 1920.
