SHE IS DISGUSTINGLY BEAUTIFUL
The lovely couple I live with are very interested in all things Indian. So in the interests of their continuing education in Indian culture, I asked if they would like to go see a Hindi flick. C was game, but D chickened out at the last minute.
I would have loved to take them to a good old Bollywood masala movie, but the only one playing right then was “Guru”. So off we went, with a couple of other friends. Friends who were quite upset at what they called “chicklogic.” They opined that only the truly deranged would insist on watching a Hindi movie when there was an exciting football match on TV.
First shock, when I realized that there were no seat numbers and that one can practically sit anywhere. Only in this case, anywhere happened to be in the second row near the screen. C had a shock when she realized that Hindi movies were looooooooooong and actually had intermissions in the middle. I wonder what she would say if I made her sit through Hum Apke Hain Kaun.
C loved the dancing and the costumes and was actually trying out some of the dance moves during the intermission. Some of those moves were actually quite risqué and I bet the men in the rows near us got quite an eyeful. Poor C also got stared quite a bit since she is light-skinned and beautiful to boot. She did have the look of a deer caught in headlights when people would actually stop talking to look at her.
Movie over and back home, I asked C what she thought of Aishwarya Rai. C retorted, “She is disgustingly beautiful.” “How do people even manage to talk when she is looking at them through those eyes.?” Good question C, any answers anyone?
