Hottest Brown Blogger EVER?

cineblitzaug05.jpgSadly, no mutineer can claim that distinction now that this Bonny lass is blogging.

Like Gogol before her, Bipasha has found a new way to concomitantly combat boredom and promote her new flick. I know, I know. It’s not a “real blog”. It’s a PR stunt. Still, her first post received 186 comments. Watch out darling Ennis, your record may not stand… 😉

Being a star is HARD:

In the past, IÂ’ve had some very ugly experiences in Jaipur — people wanting to touch, wanting to be physically nearÂ…
IÂ’m very scared of the mob-like mentality of the people.

Good thing she didn’t have that problem while making this phill-um. Another problem she didn’t have? A sore kundi from sitting in the makeup chair for hours.

I have a deglamorised look in Apaharan. The best part, because of this, was that I was able to get ready in 10 minutes! Even on the days I was running late, I managed my early morning schedules very well.

And her eyeliner was the key:

I am a simpleton at heart. In my personal life, I don’t wear makeup. Maybe just kajal. When Prakash narrated the story to me; he suddenly exclaimed, ‘Bipasha, this is the look I want for you in Apaharan.’ So getting into the role wasn’t too much trouble.

Med students? Prepare to get DISSED!

I play a medical student from a small town; she loves Ajay Devgan and is his conscious keeper. ItÂ’s a very realistic role. If I had been glamorous, it would have destroyed my character.

My standard disclaimer applies; I have never seen this woman act, because I am the only Mutineer who doesn’t watch Bollywood. Having said that, let me get the following out of my system: any comments that have to do with how you met her through your Uncle’s niece’s cousin-in-law and she’s not hot in real life or how she’s not fair-skinned except in pictures (just like all desi girls on friendster!) and or similar retardery shall be deleted with prejudice. This post is filed under Humor. Let’s keep mine good, shall we? 😉

  1. hehe…

    i’m past my medical school days…but she is somewhat correct.. we’re not decked out to dissect our cadaver dearest.. hell, we’re looking for the crappiest clothes out there since we’d throw them out anyhow after the stench would seep through them…

    this is funny as crap…love it.. what’s next… apu and manjula’s blog from the kwik-e-mart life?

  2. Hmm.. Is the picture that of Bips? I doubt it. Can somebody check on it. She looks like one of the other actresses.

  3. Hottest Brown Blogger EVER? Sadly, no mutineer can claim that distinction now that SHEÂ’s blogging

    I am not so sure Ms A N N A. As I mentioned earlier, I did check out your website 😉

    Dear ANNA, I’m sure you, and a few more of us, still have a tight hold on blogging distinction as long as statements like these are made, “I am a simpleton at heart. In my personal life, I donÂ’t wear makeup. Maybe just kajal.”

    Maybe just a little lipgloss and maybe a bit of blush, too …

    Hotness is in the eye of the brainholder.

  5. That word “kundi” makes me giggle like a little schoolboy. I wonder why…

    Logically, Bipasha’s kundi should be arousing other parts of me!

    We keep the kundis shaking, you better trust me. The name is Luda Krishna, but my friends call me Thambi

  7. Does Bong Breaker and Punjabi Boy know about Bips blog?

    Thanks Kush. I’ve been wondering what I’ve been missing on SM for past few days but just couldn’t put my finger on it. Where in the heaven’s is PB? And while we are at it, where is Junpabi Boi too?

  8. Incidentally “kundi” means flower-pot (or just pot or something like that) in Marathi.

    Note-to-self: stop giggling when Maharashtrian friends say kundi.

  9. The last part of my previous comment should have read:

    Note-to-self: stop giggling when Maharashtrian friends say kundi mein phool aahe(there are flowers in the pot).

  10. “Where in the heaven’s is PB?” He is in Thailand teaching English – that is what he told SM.

    Almost but not exactly. PB said he’s travelling around the Far East and planning to learn some martial arts in Thailand, and then plans to go to India to teach English in Chandigarh, I think.

    what’s next… apu and manjula’s blog from the kwik-e-mart life?

    That would be a fantastic idea for another new-topic thread here on SM — we could all just keep adding fictitious “diary entries” by Apu. Manish, Abhi etc — do you guys want to make this happen ? I think it would be a lot of fun and potentially hilarious too.

  11. The word kundi stood out of the post like it was in neon. 🙂 The first post’s huge comment list reads like a who-is-who of sexual frustration 101.

  12. Medical students? Bipasha Basu? Ridiculously hot brown Bengali bloggers?

    Anna, you made a whole thread just for me! Aw how sweet. Sorry I’m late.

    Does Bong Breaker and Punjabi Boy know about Bips blog?

    My good man Kush, ye of little faith. I knew about this weeks ago – in fact I’m SURE it was mentioned on here. Maybe DesiPundit or something. I visited just after it started and saw the stacks of responses and all I thought was “you chumps”.

  13. Oh my. What a delightful way to start the day. I’m going to peruse Bips’ blog right now. There goes my whole morning. Damn you, Sepia Mutiny!

    By the way, please to avoid No Entry which for some reason is a huge hit in India — it’s a total waste of time even though THBBE is in it.

    (THBBE = The Hottest Brown… etc.)

  14. Well, that took about 5 minutes, what with only two entries on her entire blog!

    The movie looks interesting though, and the cast is pretty solid.

  15. I’d be more impressed if she weren’t biting the same PR technique Aamir Khan used for “Mangal Pandey”. The fact that this movie has a supposed Diwali-week release and is up against such anticipated star-laden heavies as “Garam Masala”, “Shaadi #1”, “Home Delivery”, and “Kyon Ki” means they’re having to rely on more unconventional means to drum up some hype in the movie theatre queues. Preity Zinta has been a guest columnist on BBC South Asia since early 2004, but her columns have bordered on trite me-me-me, as I anticipate Bipasha’s blog content will degrade to.

    Aamir Khan’s blog gave the impression he was a mature, well-spoken, considerate person, as opposed to an appearance obsessed youngster superstar, but he’s not built his career on his looks, but his abilities (uh, ever see QSQT? not hot, but the man can act & dance). The fact that he lurves Vikram Seth immediately gets him +10 cool points, even if all the comments on his Mangal Pandey blog read like:

    Aamir u R sooooooo kool. u r da GR8st actor EvEr & u kick SRK’s AsS…..n 2 tel ya frankly n hope u dun mind……..ur hair style is very shabby n it really sucks!!!!!!! if U r n my town pls do come 4 dinner but e-mail me b4 so mummy n my wife can cook something nice for you. UR da BeSt!!!! 🙂

  16. By the way, please to avoid No Entry which for some reason is a huge hit in India — it’s a total waste of time even though THBBE is in it.

    Are you kidding? No Entry is a hilarious bollywood comedy. A bit long-winded, but still, quite funny, in that Bollywood kind of way.

  17. agreed, Sajit. It’s the same kind of comedy as “Masti”. You can’t really watch it with aunties, but the dialogues were rapid-fire and quite funny. Anil Kapoor was uncharacteristically funny. “No Entry” isn’t the same rehashed Love Hogaya, Plot Twist, Enter Villain bullshit. And mercifully, minimal Salman Khan screentime. (though he does find time to take his shirt off and nauseate us with his 40 year old bare oiled chest and his hairplugs. ew)

  18. I hope you read the comments to her first post. Less is more, in that case

    You mean like the following comment?
    “i hope this whole thing is a joke.”

    I’m so mean. Let the woman emote and express herself, Maitri, you know, like actresses do in the thespian gems that are Bollywood films.

  19. Nah, No Entry did nothing for me.

    I was probably too harsh on it after watching the other Salman starrer, Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya, which was surprisingly funny and slapstick — better comedy, timing, delivery and story line than No Entry.

    Plus I’m constantly impressed by Sushmita Sen who featured in MPKK — beautiful, talented, with a great flair for comedy. She’s underrated and deserves more roles — maybe even her own blog!

    I watch more Bolly flicks than I probably should.

  20. I got the same impression from Aamir Khan’s blog on Mangal Pandey. I’ve always had a unique level of respect for him as an actor. I feel he’s someone who has continued to work on, and respct, his craft. Big up to whoever shouted out QSQT – super duper movie. Even when he takes part in a cliche Bollywood movie, he always delivers a great performance. “Actresses” (using that word extremely loosely) such as Preity Zinta and BP don’t pique my interest as much. I’ve read Preity Zinta’s articles on the BBC and felt as if I was reading an article by some 1st year desi chick from Rutgers who was really active in the Indian Association. (Not anyone in particular, but just one of “those”- about the same level of depth.) It’s the same with Ms. Basu. Aw, look at how deep and thoughtful Bipasha is. You’re going to look deglamorized? Really? Your self-awareness and personal growth taking place before my eyes is making me cry. Really.

  21. The comments section in THBBE’s blog is such an awesome way to wake up and face the world early in the morning. It reaffirms my whole misanthropic notion that most people are unintentionally funny most of the time.

  22. SPEAK FOR YOURSELF!

    I can’t believe there is a real magazine called “Asian Hunk” magazine….wth!?

  23. I can’t believe there is a real magazine called “Asian Hunk” magazine

    I can’t believe BongBreaker actually submitted a photo of himself for that….Something for the ladies eh, you sly dog 😉

    By the way, Bongsie — thanks for the Rouge photos, always nice to see. Which one of those three lovely sohniye does DD look the most like again, remind me ? wink

  24. Bongsie — I’m stating the obvious but I’d better quickly say that my last question was just a joke — before DD throws another one of her strappy sandals at me 😉

    PB’s ears must be burning eh, what with all this talk of Bipasha bahenji…..

  25. Note-to-self: stop giggling when Maharashtrian friends say kundi mein phool aahe(there are flowers in the pot).

    Heh heh. How about when North Indians say “Kundi kholo” (Open the latch)

  26. Heh heh. How about when North Indians say “Kundi kholo” (Open the latch)

    Heh. I am often appalled by the way my mom says, “Illé avidé” (which means there it is in Malayalam) which she contracts to “l’avdé” and it comes out sounding something entirely different. 😉

  27. Heh. I am often appalled by the way my mom says, “Illé avidé” (which means there it >>is in Malayalam) which she contracts to “l’avdé” and it comes out sounding something >>entirely different. 😉

    Sounds like Dada Kondke’s famous marathi flick “Love Day” 😀

  28. Sounds like Dada Kondke’s famous marathi flick “Love Day” 😀

    Nice. 😉

    Some lame linguistic funnies that come to mind are:

    Mallus saying, “We are having chor(rice in malalayalam) for lunch”

    “Really! A thief?”

    Aama, Aama : which means “turtle, turtle” to Mallus and “yes,yes” to Tamizh.

  29. My cent-percent Mallu cousin was amused by the bus conductors in Madras telling him to “vaLi vidu, vaLi vidu” (Make way, Make way). Sadly enough, most Tamilians don’t pronouce the zha sound too well, so vazhi = way, becomes vaLi, meaning ‘fart’ in Malayalam.

  30. Aama, Aama : which means “turtle, turtle” to Mallus and “yes,yes” to Tamizh.

    Oh, not to forget:

    patti – strap or bandage in Tamil and dog in Malayalam

    rape – means tomorrow in Telugu. So rape chestamu can mean “I will do it tomorrow”, completely innocuous 🙂
