Desi Masti: 08/01/2011

Her name is not to be found anywhere in the publicity of MURDER-2, but she is being touted as a surprise package. Indeed, Hindi cinema has been fortunate enough to have leading ladies from the army background who have made their mark in their manner, and have been a trail blazer. Sulagna could also follow in the same league.

One of the most successful female leading ladies so far in the Hindi film industry is Preity Zinta who had an element of chutzpah in her performance and it is owing to this chutzpah that she could carve a niche for herself. Sulagna has the same potential as she has done some daring stunts in MURDER-2, which is a surprise package, and she could do it with consummate ease on account of the army background where being accustomed to such stunts is a part of the process of growing up.

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has joined the list of celebrities who has not had any issue in donning a bikini on screen. The actress recently spoke about her experience with a scene which she had shot in a bikini for the movie ‘Rascals’.

Kangana said that she is a city girl now and that the concept wasn’t a shocking one for her. The ‘Gangster’ actress said that she might have worn a bikini for a swim, but wearing one for a shoot and that too in presence of people who are fully covered becomes a bit awkward.

Ranaut said that it was the director David Dhawan who had convinced the actress and had said that it wasn’t compulsory for her to do it. Dhawan had also made it clear to the actress that he did not want her to reduce for the scene and wanted her to look like a woman and not a little boy.

Kangana said that she had taken it up as a challenge and her trainer Kalpesh had helped her look more sexy and curvy for the scene. The actress said that she had even stopped eating fried and oily stuff a week before the shoot.
