During my visit to Chennai last week, I made a lazy round of the Marina beach. There were a number of stalls selling colourful plastic knick-nacks. I did something which I should not have done - tasted some freshly fried assorted pakoras. A few metres away, I saw a long line up of the cut-outs of celeberities, ranging from the politicians to film stars to cricketers. The photographer was doing a brisk business taking snaps of young people with the cut-outs of their choice. Last year I had got a photo taken doing a 'namaskar' to the great Amma.
This year I did something different. I chose to get a photo taken with the cut-out of Deepika Padukone. The fake photo is yours to see.
I must confess that I am quite impressed with this photo. I think I managed to get just the right expression for the occassion- a mixture of mischievous joy and at the same time a realisation of doing something which a person of my age is not supposed to be doing. May be I should be doing the role of heroine's goody-goody, old balding, greying father in some movie.
Are you listening Karan Johar?
GO AHEAD... We are ALL FOR IT Chat :)
