Zayed Khan
Any movie starring Akshay Kumar has to be a hunk-babe fest. When he’s in a movie, the glam quotient rises by default. However, something’s gone amiss in Blue. Nope not the Kylie Minogue – Akshay Kumar ‘Chiggy-Wiggy‘. It is the hulking Sanjay Dutt whose look has gone all wrong in the movie.
Lara is looking hot, Akshay as usual smoking and even Zayed is looking quite steamy. Sanjay of course is another story and this, he has realized himself. He is looking rather… old and fat.
Ordinarily, that wouldn’t be a problem. However, when you’re sharing on screen space with hunks like Akshay and Zayed, it’s enough to send even the most good looking of men into jitters. So we don’t blame Sanjay for feeling a little insecure and shall I say a little threatened?
You might see a little change in Sanjay’s waistline and hairline after the film is finished though. Technology and careful editing can work wonders you know and not many will be willing to offend a volatile, heavyweight like Sanjay Dutt. Oops…I think I just did!

After getting depressed because he did not get a solo song with Kylie Minogue as promised in Blue, Zayed Khan seems to have recovered pretty fast. So what if he could not “Chiggy Wiggy” with a Kylie solo? He regained lost ground by gifting Kylie Minogue with a sari. What is more, the sari fit her pretty well. Zayed says she is the same size as his wife …. Ahem! Yes we know Zayed.
Did you at any time during the gifting process ever stop to think that a sari is a very personal and therefore inappropriate gift for a married man to present to a woman? I am sure you had no ulterior motive in mind. You simply wanted to make good with an international star who would have some useful showbiz connections in the outside world. Given the number of rejections you’ve been facing in Bollywood recently, you might need to start looking elsewhere for recognition and work. Smart move but nevertheless when buying gifts for attractive women, consider impersonal gifts like Kashmiri rugs and pieces of art …okay Zyed? Such choices will keep you happily married.

In his forthcoming film Blue, Zayed Khan was promised a solo song, – yes, all by himself – by Tony D’Souza. The song was to be shot last, so Zayed baba waited, and waited, and waited…
Only to discover that his solo song was no longer solo, but had the entire cast of Blue in it! This upset our lil’ Zayed so much that now he’s refused to appear in the song altogether. Tut… tut… too bad he won’t be missed.
Amidst gushing tears, he managed to say, “I’m learning my lessons the hard way. In this industry, the big fish always end up eating up the little fish. Fine. Hopefully, one day I’ll get there.”
Two corrections, Zayed: First of all, in Blue, you are up against the likes of Sanjay Dutt and Akshay Kumar. These are much worse than big fish, they are piranhas. Second, after you’ve been gobbled up by them, how can you ever get back at them? Think practically, Zayed: when you are professionally non-existent how can you fight back?
Also, considering the amount of money that’s typically invested into each song-and-dance sequence in Bollywood, I wouldn’t blame D’Souza if he didn’t want to leave anything to chance. After all, Zayed, everyone doesn’t have baap ka paisa to fall back on, do they?
If I were you and was fast becoming history, I’d be grateful even for a cameo. But some people never learn.

It’s funny, when these teeny-weeny starlets pop up from somewhere now and then and strain your memory so. I saw this girl’s picture somewhere today and I got that deja-vu feeling again! The other day when I read about Zayed Khan and could remember his entire star family’s names and careers, but, for the life of me, couldn’t recall a single movie he’d starred in.
Well, Esha Deol’s slightly better placed. I do remember her in a couple of movies which had hordes of other people in it. As explanation for her long absence from the limelight, she says her priorities have changed. Is that GenX stars’ way of saying ‘I’m not getting any roles, duh’? We get the message Esha, loud and clear. And, if you really mean what you say, then I think it’s a wise decision.
It’s better to take up some serious dancing with your mom, but remember never to get on stage alone. You are minor co-star and “extras” material and lead roles are simply not meant for you, be it Bharatanatyam or Bollywood.
And if dancing too doesn’t work out, there’s mommy’s Seeta Aur Geeta 2.0, of course. I’m sure your still-sexy mum can fix something up for you duhling.

Genelia can… Zayed Khan’t
Sanjay Khan wants to do a mega budget movie to launch beta Zayed into the premier league of Bollywood.
Ho-hum.
Zayed… baby, you had everything going for you. A ‘Khan’ last name and a family full of connections: papa Sanjay Khan, bro-in-law Hrithik Roshan, cousin Fardeen Khan, even a movie with SRK, the biggest Khan of ‘em all.
If all this padding up didn’t work for you, maybe God is trying to say something? If you have hearing problems, we can help. The message is: Bollywood’s no place for bacchas. Grow up, kid, or go away.
Just after this kindergarten update, I stumbled on some news, which I think Zayed, and many starlets like him could do well considering.
Genelia D’Souza was as much a reason for Jaane Tu… Yaa Jaane Na’s success as was Imraan Khan. But, he gained more mileage than her from the movie, because that’s how the world works.
Yet, Geenu is fighting back, with Life Partner releasing this Friday and two more lined up: one with Shahid Kapoor and the other with John Abraham. Great going girl!!
Something tells me this one will be difficult to shake off. She’s got ‘IT’, and she knows that.
