Neha Dhupia Creates History Down South

Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia may not have achieved much during her short career in Mumbai but she has created magic down south.

According to reports from the Telugu film industry, makers of her latest film 'Parama Veera Chakra' were so impressed by her voice (not her acting skills!) that they decided to make use of the husky Neha Dhupia baritone for their latest film. And the actress has just created history because this makes Neha Dhupia, the first lady from Bollywood to dub in her own voice for a Telugu film.

If the reports coming in from Tollywood are to be believed, the director of 'Parama Veera Chakra' describes Neha Dhupia's voice as "unmatchable". In fact, while the filming process for the upcoming project was still going on, the director was almost worried as to who will match up to the voice quality that the Bollywood actress possessed. But now the director can rest in peace as Neha Dhupia herself has come to his rescue. The ex Miss India will dub for her latest flick 'Parama Veera Chakra' in her own voice.

Neha Dhupia too, is very excited about the upcoming venture and is all geared up to mouth a completely unknown language. Till today, Neha Dhupia was regarded as one of the sexiest actresses in the Hindi film industry. 'Parama Veera Chakra' has introduced to us an entirely new talent of the actress.

Neha, Prachi add glamour to Bridal Week

Actresses Prachi Desai and Neha Dhupia added glamour to a show put together by designer duo Falguni and Shane Peacockthe at the ongoing Amby Valley India Bridal Week (AVIBW), which is low on Bollywood quotient.

While Prachi sashayed on the ramp in a nude tone net sari with sequins border and opened the show, Neha dazzled in a gold floral embroidered gown with a bare back moulded top and it was teamed up with red net dupatta (stole).

"Personally, I'm not fond of jewellery and heavy outfits, but Falguni and Shane have made a great outfit. They gave me these hues because they wanted to bring out the freshness in a young bride," Prachi told IANS.

The collection, which was named the Victorian Peacock Bridal collection, was a combination of bold prints in a melange of colours, sprinkled with crystals and feathers.

"The collection is outstanding. Just to wear these clothes, I wish I could become a bride more than once. Because the clothes are so nice that you can't decide which outfit would you like to wear for the wedding," said Neha.

The garments ranged from flared lehengas, saris and evening gowns in net, chiffon, satin and velvets. With antique crystal and gold sheeting the designers offered a fusion of ethnic embroidery with western silhouettes.

"Our show was for the modern bride who really wants to dress up and have fun and basically wants a modern garment with a traditional touch. A lot of effort has gone in co-ordinating the whole look," said Falguni.

Neha Dhupia makes her singing debut

Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia, who recently recorded a song with singer Kailash Kher for her forthcoming comedy caper "Phas Gaye Re Obama", is excited to make her debut in playback singing.

"I am super excited about the song and for getting an opportunity to sing along with a celebrated artist like Kailash Kher. It's not an everyday story for Bollywood actresses. I feel extremely lucky to be part of this project. Hope everybody likes it," Neha said.

Neha plays a cruel don called Munni Madam who hates men in the film.

"At first, Neha refused. But after a couple of music sittings she finally agreed to record. Surprisingly, she completed the recording in just one day which is commendable as she is not a professional singer," said Subhash kapoor, the director of the film.

Releasing Nov 26, the film also stars Rajat Kapoor, Manu Rishi Chadha, Sanjay Mishra, Sumit Nijhavan and Amole Gupte, among others.

Obama ‘trapped' by Bollywood comedy

Ahead of Barack Obama's visit to India next month, Bollywood has come up with a comedy kidnap movie whose plot is woven around the president's efforts to put the US economy back on track.

"Phas Gaya Re Obama" ("Obama is Trapped"), made on a budget of just 35 million rupees (800,000 dollars), is a comic tale of small time gangsters in northern India, whose criminal activities are hit by the global economic downturn.

The movie, distributed by Warner Bros, is ready for release but will only hit screens on November 26, several weeks after Obama's visit, which is scheduled for the beginning of the month.

"Phas Gaya Re Obama" has had to make way for a series of mega-budget movies which are traditionally released around the time of Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, which falls on November 5.

There is no actual Obama character in the film, which stars model Neha Dhupia, who also appeared in a US television mini-series "Bollywood Hero" last year, and Rajat Kapoor.

The plot involves the abduction of a non-resident Indian who returns home to sell his ancestral property to repay debts in the United States after losing his job.

The gangsters look to Obama to revive the world economy and halt a sharp decline in their ransom earnings.

"It is a hilarious story of how the global recession affects kidnapping business of gangsters in a small town," writer and director Subhash Kapoor told reporters in India's entertainment capital Mumbai on Wednesday.

Denzil Dias, deputy managing director of Warner Bros in India, promised "one of the most original and funniest scripts in recent times."

It is not the first time Bollywood has co-opted the US president into the plot of one of its films.

His character also featured in the huge box-office hit "My Name is Khan," released in April, in which superstar Shah Rukh Khan played a US-resident Muslim Indian with Asperger's syndrome who marries a Hindu single mother.

After their marriage crumbles in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks, Khan sets out to meet Obama for help in winning her back.

Relations between India and the United States have steadily warmed over the past decade, with the two countries overcoming decades of mutual distrust during the Cold War era.

Obama last year welcomed Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for the honour of the first state dinner of his presidency.

The Obama administration has vowed to build a broad global partnership with India, hailing the Asian country as "indispensable".

Dhupia 'wants to play action role'

Neha Dhupia has said that she would like to take on an action role, according to Real Bollywood.

Dhupia reportedly claimed that there are not enough "action queens" in Bollywood.

The star will next be seen in Vipul Shah's Action Replayy alongside Akshay Kumar and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
