Actors travelling aboard more cautious with customs

Tweet

Once bitten, twice shy. It seems that the Bollywood actors have taken a leaf out of the recent incidents where Bollywood celebrities have had to go through the custom hassels about the things they were carrying, or in fact returning from foreign countries after their shows.

Among those who were seen declaring their possession was Ronit Roy – the protagonist of the current popular TV serial Adalat. He went to Toronto for the current IIFA awards with his family. He declared his possession of a hi-tech camera and a couple of ipads.

Abhinav Kashyap, the director of Dabangg, was another prominent personality who was seen with the custom officials. He disclosed that he was travelling with two of his laptops. Dia Mirza was rather too cautious. And why wouldn’t she be? She declared about her earrings that she was going to wear during the actual IIFA events.

It was a field day for the film Dabangg, as it bagged as many as six awards at the 12th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) in Toronto. Here is the list of awards Dabangg received. The first award was of course, for the best screenplay. The second award was for the best playback singer (female), while the third one was for the best playback singer (male).
Dabangg also got the award for the best music director. The fifth award went to Sonu Sood for his best performance in a negative role and Sonakshi Sinha won the best female actor award (debut). All in all, it were the awards on a highly expected line, which almost went according to the script.
The best actor award went to Shah Rukh Khan for his role in the film My Name is Khan. Anushka Sharma won the best actress award for the film Band Baaja Baaraat.
The best supporting actor (male) award went to Arjun Rampal for his role in the political thriller Raajneeti. The best supporting actor (female) went to Prachi Desai for her characterization in the film Once Upon a Time in Mumbai.

Mallika Sherawat is the true desi girl

Priyanka Chopra might have been portrayed as the desi girl in the song from Dostana or Salman Khan might have tagged Kareena Kapoor as the original desi girl. However, we would like to defer on this count. It would be unfair to drop Mallika Sherawat from the list of the desi girls.
Now, you will be surprised to know that why we are trying to tag Mallika Sherawat as the desi girl. Well, she has really understood the importance of Indian clothing. The reason? Oh well, she has got too fed up of wearing the sinking necklines. She was recently seen – all ‘covered up’ – an image, you will rarely find about Mallika.
Mallika Sherawat was spotted at the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Weekend and Awards. On the first day, she was seen, or rather not seen in the usual gowns that she wears at such film festivals. The revealing dress too was seen missing from Mallika.
Imagine what, Mallika was seen in a golden colored saree and a completely simple blouse, through which you could hardly see her assets. It was a complete surprise for the fans of Mallika as they are not used to such dresses.
“I was getting bored of them (low neck dresses and gowns)”, Mallika Sherawat replied when asked about the change in her clothing.
