Salaam-e-Ishq. Can't wait to see!

[dangermousie]

I confess.

My most anticipated movie? Is Bollywood's Salaam-e-Ishq a very loose interpretation/riff on Love Actually (it borrows the theme of interconnected love stories, but except for one of them, the stories are very different).

I am going to see it the coming weekend with smartylibrarian, so I bring you a picspam of the incredibly pretty people starring in it. For previous picspams of the movie, go here, here, and here. In fact, since I did do general picspams before, these are picspams of the three stories I am most interested in. (1) Kkamini and Rahul (Priyanka Chopra and Salman Khan). Kkamini is an ambitious Bollywood item girl (a girl who dances a sexy number in movies) who wants to be a star and Rahul is the man who muddies her plans in a madcap fashion. (2)Tehzeeb and Ashutosh (Vidya Balan and John Abraham), an inter-religion newly married, professional couple (she's a Muslim, he's a Hindu) who face tragedy (I know spoilers and am looking forward to this story the most). (3) And Raju and Stephanie (Govinda and Shanon Esra), a taxi driver who dreams of a 'blonde girl' getting into his cab one of these days and falling in love and a blonde foreigner who came in search of her scummy boyfriend.

There are only three things I can say:

1. I can't wait for non-watermarked pictures, because OMG Priyanka's outfits!! :D

2. ... Why is John letting Vidya paint his toenails?? ;)

3. Oh Govinda, someone ought to put him out to pasture already.

1. YES. But did you see Salman's 'gorilla unit' shirt? Roffle

2. One word. Metrosexual. Plus, let the poor woobies enjoy themselves considering their storyline is the angsty one.

3. Noez :( I am not the world's biggest Govinda fan but apparently he did a really great job here and his rather ordinary looks actually fit: he's a taxidriver. He isn't going to look gorgeos or glamorous or anything but average.

1. Haha, yep I saw that. And my first thought was: "Does Salman Khan even know who G-Unit is?!" ;P

2. So true. *feels bad for the woobie couple*

3.Good point about him trying to fit an average character. I just can't help but laugh at the idea of some pretty gori mem falling for him. ;)

Yeah, but I don't think she is very pretty either. Ordinary looking even if blonde which is of course instantly popular (not a stunner like Antonia Bernath in Kisna or the girl leads in RDB or Dil Jo Bhi Kahey).

Those were truly the three best stories. Though the "married virgins" story was friggin HILARIOUS. You will laugh your ass off.

Otherwise John-Vidya broke my heart and Priyanka-Salman are adorable. Govinda did suprisingly well.. I have to admit I have disliked him for a long time, but after seeing him in Bhagam Bhag and now this.. I think he's a pretty good actor. He's really funny.

Heeeee. Yeah, I can;t wait to watch this.

... Why is Salman wearing a chocker/dog collar in some of those?

Trust you to notice that :D

Several alternatives come to mind:

1. He raided the closet of Toya from Ayashi No Ceres (if he also took the dagger appearing from arm and wings, that would be awesome).

2. Priyanka is a harsh mistress :D

3. Bollywood designer exercising some *ahem* private fantasies...

:D
