Today seems to be the day of blind items regarding previously in-vogue actors, who are looking to get back the glory they once had. The first blind item of today was about this senior actor and the one below is about this once-upon-a-time popular actress. We don’t know whether she is delusional or clueless. She already made her comeback some time back and it didn’t work. She produced that comeback herself because she wasn’t getting any good movie offers and some said that she even stepped in when the director didn’t know what he was doing. There were also those, who worked on the sets that said she enjoyed powdering herself up in her vanity van before coming out to shoot. Now bear in mind that this is not the normal ladies powdering up that we are talking about, it’s the rich ladies powdering up.
According to the blind item posted by Indian Express, this actress seems to think that she didn’t get roles because she was busy in the business ventures that she took on and also because she got married and moved to the other side of the world. On one hand, we do feel sorry for her. She was once known as Miss Congeniality before an actual Miss World stepped in and took that title as well as other people’s husband. This actress put her friends, as in directors, producers and stylists, above her. She really did esteem their friendship. But when she went down, they didn’t give her the same attention that they gave her when she was among the top actresses.
It’s quite sad because that is how Bollywood works. It’s even sadder because she hasn’t realised this yet. She can still get lead roles at her age, she can also get supporting roles. It just has to be a role, not just any random role. The blind item below mentions this actress’ colleagues, who are really doing well. That’s a bit far-fetched, they are obviously referring to that one actress that this actress was always pitted against. That one actress just had a successful film at the box office, which is why they are referencing her in the blind item below. But it’s not really fair because that actress got married to a head honcho of Mumbai’s most famous production house. She has all the money to make the films she want for herself!
Anyways, check out the blind item below from Indian Express.
Bollywood Blind Item
Guess the female actor who has been sending feelers to get a role?
The female actor had a successful stint but some other businesses and personal issues led to her swiftly running out of films.. Now that she is married and has managed her business ventures well, the actor is all set to make a comeback and will leave no stone unturned till she bags some meaty roles again.
Bollywood is a strange industry. Reigning stars fade out and are replaced by the younger lot. While some continue to work, changing as per the time, some others get stuck to the idea that they enjoyed enormous stardom and still want to be cast as the main lead. That is a dream for many and reality for some actors. However, female actor, on the other hand, have been told since they step in the world of Hindi cinema that they should make the most while they are young and single. But now times are changing and female actors are slowly and steadily enjoying the same adulation from audiences and fans that once was only a dream for any married female actor.
But guess some arenβt really lucky when it comes to getting offers post-wedding. Industry pals and producers have ignored one such bubbly female actor who was once everyoneβs favourite when they were casting for their upcoming films. A close associate of the female actor who also has other business commitments let us into a guarded secret, βSince she was initially busy with her other businesses and then marriage, she felt that is the reason that meaty roles and good films are not coming to her. But lately, she at various soirees and parties with her industry pals hinted that she is very much interested in doing films and will be more than happy to be back on the silver screen. But well guess that wasnβt very helpful.β
On further prodding as to whatβs the plan, the associate divulged that she now has been sending feelers to not just her industry friends but her old producers and directors for an apt role that will put her back on the map. Her colleagues have been having a good run at the box office and our female actor we hear is especially open to roles that focus on her acting than the vivacious roles that she played earlier. Well, we feel that change is the only thing thatβs constant and if our female actor has learnt this we hope to see her in a never before avatar very soon. Producers, directors and casting directors, please make a note that someone is all geared up to cast a spell with their acting prowess than looks this time.
OSOP Guess
Female Actor: Preity Zinta
She, was, going to be mrs wadia. Now, shes, doing cheap, ads like surya bulbs. This is why you should stay away from drugs. Preity was, always too arrogant. Only Bollywood person standing by her is salman!
Who all feel PReity is an absolutely FAKE marriage (to show the world, parents etc) just like Urmila!
I dont know if the marriage if Fake or not… But the way society puts pressure for marriage and Kids, its super annoying. π SO even if its Fake, i dont mind, the day society STOP putting pressure , be it for a man or woman, these Fake things will automatically Stop .
A person can be Happy and satisfied from the life without marriage and Kids.
So true!
Even shweta Bachchan is separated from her husband and its rumored ranbirs brother in law is gay and has a fake marriage with ranbirs sister.
How do you know Urmilas marriage is fake?
Its rumored her husband is gay. Areu a kat fan?
Oops spell check, I meant Parveen Babi…
There are a million articles about parveens sickness online. As shes not a nepo actress and nobodys there to stop media from publishing articles on her. Its sad as she was really beautiful. Her pic on time magazine cover is iconic.
@Admin: why don’t you reveal the truth about yesteryear actress Pattern Babi. Surely, her claims were shocking but in true filmi style, she was branded ‘mentally unstable’. Hard to believe and how convenient for those she was referring to…..
There’s no truth to reveal. People already know about her and her state of mind. There is nothing new to add.
It is well known that Parveen Babi was a victim of paranoid schizophrenia. It is also well-known that victims of this have irrational thoughts and accuse innocent people of hurting them. Do you know who Parveen accused of wanting to kill her?: Amitabh Bachchan, Bill Clinton, Robert Redford, Prince Charles, Al Gore, US government, British government, French government, BJP government, Roman Catholic Church, CIA, CBI, KGB, Mossad.
Parveen Babi had her heyday, but was no Marilyn Monroe, Diana or JFK that international governments and spy agencies would apparently conspire to kill her, These many people don’t even want to kill Mamta Kulkarni or Mandakini, both associated with very dangerous and hated men.
Its clear what her situation was, so hope she rests in peace.
As you mentioned admin, Priety was on good terms with everybody from the industry and worked with all the top actors, directors and top production banners unlike Ash (who fell out with the 3 Khans and after SK-Ash breakup she lost out on good projects,) but Priety is not getting movie offers. Perhaps it is the Bahchan surname that is getting Ash all these work. Who knows!!
It is refreshing to see 90s and early 2000 actresses like Kajol, Tabu, Rani, Ash, Madhuri, Juhi, Raveena getting work. Maybe bollywood is slowly changing the attitude towards women above a certain age. Even Urmila is also trying to make a come back.
Then y abhishek bachchan not getting that much work offer???this mentality is disgusting ash far bigger name than bachchan itself in worldwide.
@pooja You totally misunderstood my point.
Abhishek even when he had back to back flops got a lot of offers. Look at his filmography. If he was not a star kid he would not have gotten so much offers. Just because he was not working for 2 years we can’t say for sure he never got offers because when he decided to make a comeback he is getting offers left, right and centre. Eventhough his last movie was a big flop. He got Paltan, got an offer from Rohit Shetty for Simmba, he is in the next houseful movie, there were blinds/ rumours he got Sahir Ludhiana biopic but he rejected it because it was not an original screenplay. Look how he snatched Manmarziyan from Salman Dulquer. If it was not for his Bahchan surname people would not be giving a talentless, flop actor so many chances.
I’m not denying Ash is a bigger star than Abhishek before and after marriage. Also I’m not belittling her achievements by merely saying she got it all because of Bahchan surname. I know she is a selfmade star. I just compared her to Priety who was way ahead of Ash in terms of box office success and had great relationships with all bollywood 3 Khans, top directors and producers unlike Ash during her heydays . Priety is not able to get good comeback offers even though she is more close and friendly with the Khans, Kjo, YRF, Rani than Ash. You totally misunderstood my point.
Having great relationships with 3 khans is of no use….they cast only younger women…maybe occasionally SRK had to cast Kajol…due to their pairing success at BO.
Also, Aish is always in ensemble cast…all her solo ventures have bombed …ex jazbaa and Sarbajit. even though they are all low budget. ‘Ae dil hai mushkil’ did give her some mileage where she is projected as some seductress that too when being paired with younger actor and kissing RK got so much attention …she got movies too.
Aishwarya has more work than Kareena has…or lets say even Sonam. Aishwarya has been very lucky…she still retains some brand value. Maybe its more than being a Bachchan since Abhishek is not being cast…but have equal acting talent. Plus she was never out of scene in bollywood… that is the advantage of marrying inside bollywood…you dont vanish from the circles. But i do not think she has too many years ahead too.
Madhuri makes much more money on tv shows than she will make in movies.
Madhuri has to work as shes the breadwinner of her family has two sons. She can’t afford to do movies as they might work, or flop. Bragging anout living in us and being married to a, doctor, now her husband doesn’t work.
PZ was a drug addict and was kicked out of many projects because of that… Maybe the star wives circle had some hand in it.. She used to be close pals with Gauri,Suzy,Mehr etc….Afterwards,she used Ness for publicity by giving statements against him in the media and creating a controversy out of nothing…. She used to pay scribes to plant her stories in the media… And also that fight with Ness and his mom at wankhede stadium was blown out of proportion by her…. Later she got married to Gene and moved out of the country till the matter settles down… And now suddenly she seems keen to get work..
You can find more details about her on Jack’s site –
http://www.fashionscandal.com/
I heard fashionscandal has some legit inside stuff.. ANyone who knows their sources?
Jack is a fashion designer and closely works with bw folks…. All his friends who comment on the site are also in some way working with bw ppl.
apparantly , he writes or used to write on bollywoodbasket. Someone the other day mentioned about that site…thats its taken down.
…
But he has stopped posting inside scoop type articles. Its only about international fashion and models now. I think there were many court cases threats made to him. In its heyday that site was a blast!! He exposed almost all the biz tycoon sugar daddies and their mistresses. He was more into high society of Delhi and Mumbai rather than Bollywood.
i wudnt agree that preity would call out an abusive person as abusive just to get popular and stay relevant..
and to think she “blew something out of proportion” which was in reality talking about it and lodging a complaint maybe is sad bcos that shud be seen as a normal thing to do when smone gets physical or treats u like a piece of shit..
@amanda If I ‘m not wrong bit I’m not sure though,I think there was a blind about how Ness used to be physically abusive to Lara Dutta when they dated.
Does anyone else remember reading such a blind. Maybe it was about somebody else.. I dont know for sure…
i hate to talk badly about PZ,but sadly it’s true… PZ was also having an affair with much married Shiney Ahuja until he was jailed for raping his maid….
Wadia locked Lara Dutta in an apartment for a few hours or a day perhaps. It was all over the place a few years ago.
Didn’t preity also have an affair with Shekhar kapoor and that’s how she got her first film tara rum pum (which was later shelved) he has a reputation of sleeping with younger actresses for roles.
She looked so pretty in Dil Se.
So this was the reason PZ just disappeared after Janeman and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom.
She was really young then.
