Bipasha definitely looks hotter than Aishwarya


Aishwarya Rai may have a very beautiful face, but she can’t beat Bipasha Basu in sex appeal.

Being sexy is not just about wearing skimpy outfits or giving ‘I am wild’ look to the camera. It is more about attitude and how one carries oneself in revealing clothes.




Sanjay Gadhvi’s movie Dhoom 2 pits gorgeous Ash against sultry Bipasha in what is seen by many as the battle for looking sexier. Sorry to say that Ash comes nowhere near Bipasha in looking hot.

In her introductory scene in the film, Ash is shown completely dressed in black outfit (of a thief) and wearing a mask. A few minutes later, she takes off her dress in front of the hero ( Hrithik Roshan ) and stands in a tiny top and shorts.

The posture she strikes is supposed to be sexy, but is far from it. What you see is Ash standing with her arms slightly akimbo, her pelvis stiff and her bust ostentatiously protruding to the thief in front of her. Now, that is supposed to be “sex appeal” for you.

Bipasha, on the other hand, raises your hair (and perhaps more) in her very first scene when she is shooting at a target while dressed in a tight white T-shirt and jeans. The camera catches the angle of her bust from sideways, highlighting to the maximum Bipasha’s anatomical assets.

That’s not it. After every few reels, Bipasha is shown in one revealing outfit after another, making sure that the oomph quotient doesn’t drip in the film. The temperature rises further in the second half, when Bipasha is shown as a Brazilian, mostly dressed in bikinis.

Ash, on the other hand, exudes nothing but fatigue. Ironically, she looks the most appealing in a blue, dinner dress that covers her completely from her neck to her knees. She is unable to carry herself naturally in other skimpy dresses like a black catsuit, a golden dress and a two-piece outfit in the final song.

In this battle of sex appeal, Bipasha is undoubtedly the winner.

The default was detected during the survey conducted by the TDS wing of the income tax (I-T) department at the Khar office of the company on Thursday.

When contacted Shah Rukh's secretary Karuna said that it was a simple survey. "They had come to see the procedure the company is following in tax deduction," she said. She further said that the survey was a routine procedure.

She refused knowledge of the default detected by the I-T department. She claimed that all the papers of the company were in order.

Karuna said that the survey was not a big issue. She stressed that Shah Rukh was the highest taxpayer and has always set precedent in paying taxes. "We are the first to pay service tax and stamp duty," she said.

Shiv Sainiks stall Rani Mukherjee film in Ganga ghat

Shooting of Rani Mukherjee-starrer 'Chudian' was stalled today after Shiv Sena activists protested the barricading of a bathing 'ghat' on the bank the river Ganga.

Shiv Sainiks led by district unit president Gulshan Kapur staged a protest against the barricade erected at Manikarnika Ghat by the film crew, saying pilgrims were being prevented from bathing in the holy river and visiting nearby temples.

They relented after the film unit removed the barricade and assured the protesters that the film's shooting would not encumber the people or prevent them from visiting the ghat.

The unit later resumed the shooting and actor Anupam Kher also arrived by a commercial flight from Mumbai to participate in the shooting of the film.

Sumanth says, 'For the second time I am working with Sravanti Ravikishore and my first film in our combination is 'Gowri'. It will be quite comfortable to work in this banner. Moreover, I am very happy for working with Vijayabhaskar. I am sure that the film would come out well.'

Ravikishore says, 'This is the third film in my combination with Vijayabhaskar. Both the films we worked together earlier — 'Nuvve Kavali and Nuvvu Naaku Nachav' were big hits. This film would repeat the history of success. This subject would perfectly suit Sumanth's image and the script prepared by Abburi Ravi is quite good. We just took the main theme of the original film and made suitable changes to suit the Telugu nativity. We are sure that the film would be a definite hit.'

Vijayabhaskar says, 'This is my third film in Sravanthi banner. Sumanth, Sada and Kamalini Mukherji are doing very good roles in this film. The film would reach everyone's expectations.'
