Canadian Model Rachel Wood in Bollywood


International model, pin-up girl and Canadian-Indian phirangi phataka Rachel Wood has been signed on by the US-based, start-up firm Purple Fire Films for an international Hindi film project. Rachel who has done several modeling assignments abroad and has also featured in more than 10 Punjabi videos (all shot in Canada and the US) is of Indian origin. She is a third generation Canadian-Indian and has lived all her life in Canada and the US. Rachel has featured on the covers of most international men's magazines. She is also a pin-up and bikini model and is a regular at most Auto and Bike shows.

Besides, Rachel, the producers have approached John Abraham, Dino Morea and Rahul Bose as prospective co-stars. However, the male lead for this project starring Rachel has yet to be confirmed, said sources.

Co-incidently, Rachel has also done some "not-worth-mentioning Indian print ads, which she did during her short holiday visits to India in the past to earn some extra pocket money," explained Media Manager and spokesperson for Purple Fire Films, Flynn Remedios adding that she has also featured in two local videos but doesn't want to talk about them now. "She has been taken on a 3-year-three-film contract," said Flynn.

Rachel who is currently in Mumbai for a desi-Bollywood acting course, said that it was her dream to act in a typical Bollywood family entertainer. "I have always loved Bollywood movies. I am a great fan of Salman, Aamir and SRK. I must thank Purple Fire Films for giving me this opportunity to co-star in an Indian production." The project will feature Rachel in some very steamy and seductive scenes and will also have some devil-may-dare action scenes.

Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini

Bollywood Actress Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini In Dil Bole Hadippa Believe it or not, but the whole ‘bikini top ‘n’ skimpy shorts’ avatar in short — flaunting Rani Mukerji’s hot new bod wasn’t her idea. Not even the producer or director had anything to do with it. After she realised how much she had toned up (to play a male cricketer in Dil Bole Hadippa!), Rani just happened to discuss this idea with her designer friend Manish Malhotra. And from there on it was Manish’s game plan, after all, he’s transformed many a Bollywood girl in to glam queens. He suggested that it would be a pity to waste such a well-toned body by not showing it off. That’s how the idea of a special song was born. And is she looking hot? Talk about her ‘shapely’ success, and Rani says, “Believe me, I didn’t starve at all. I love my food, especially rice and sweets. There was no way I was giving up all that. So, I just worked out harder and was occasionally allowed my ‘cheat’ meals of rice, sweets, etc. ...

'I have no heartfelt desire to work with SRK’: Ranbir Kapoor

Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor maintains he never said he was desperate to share screen space with Shah Rukh Khan, but admitted he would love to work with the superstar if a good project came his way. “I had no such dil ki tamanna (heartfelt desire) to work with Shah Rukh sir. But I respect him a lot. I am a big fan of him,” Ranbir told reporters on the margins of the HT Leadership Summit here Friday. The 28-year-old, who was here with his father, evergreen star Rishi Kapoor, says a superstar’s presence in a project isn’t reason enough for him to accept it. “It’s not that if a superstar will be there in a film, I’ll agree to do it. But if I like a film, I like its script, I would be more than glad to do it,” he added. Nevertheless, Ranbir enjoys the attention he gets from the youth.
