Gorgeous Bollywood Angst

[dangermousie]

I bring you...stills from the upcoming Bollywood movie Umrao Jaan, with Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan. UJ is a movie about a turn of the century courtesan and her life. And Abhishek plays her OTP. Expect angst, gorgeous dancing, and mind-bogglingly beautiful design.















Also, I am super excited because Saif Ali Khan and Vidya Balan are going to be paired in another movie together, with the director of Parineeta (one of my fave Bolly movies, and in which they played the OTP and sizzled like a sizzling thing).

Guh at Abhi! I'm very curious to see how Aish will do. It's kind of unsettling... to see her in this role, because she looks so different from Rekha.

Gorgeous icon. And yeah, Abhi looks gorgeous. I haven't seen the older UJ version so have no basis of comparison.

Aish kind of looks like a Fremen in the last pic with the blue eyes :D

But hey, it's a historical, so I'm so going to be there :D I'm a sucker for historical costumes.

What's a Fremen?

But yeah, I adore period movies much too much.

You know, those blue eyed people from the movie/book Dune?

Oh, yeah. I was wondering why it sounded familiar.
