Now they are in UK

One picture is equal to a thousand words:




What more can I say of both their outfits - I am speechless and looks like so is Mr. Bachchan.

CC2C Premier in Toronto


I like the fact that Twinkle started off with the saree, then wore a dress and now is wearing a chudidar kurta here. I really like her outfit - love the long kurta, the shoes and the bronze clutch. With the hair and earrings et.al - she nailed this one.


How come Akshay does not consult his wife, when it comes to dressing up? Leather pants, bronzy blazer, sunglasses (at night??) ????




This is so much better than the earlier 2 disasters - I like the lace lehanga with the nude lining, the corset top and the choker ( i will try and get another pic where u can see the necklace better). So maybe there is some hope.........

CC2C Premier in NY

The next stop for the CC2C crew was New York. During the day the cast and crew had a press conference. Here are some pics:






Yes you are right, he is standing atop a NYC cab. What's with the silver loafers and the magenta scarf around the neck? Do Bollywood stars have a stylist? Doesn't look like it.







You may not be able to tell from this pic but Deepika is wearing a one sleeved outfit. While I like the color on her and obviously she carries it well - why is she not wearing any accessories? On a personal note, I love off shoulder or one shoulder dresses but I draw the line at one sleeve dresses. It always feels like something is missing - either the darzi forgot to add a sleeve or you chopped one off. Do you agree?



They really did not fare too much better in the evening. See for yourself




Better than the white suit, I am not sure about the open lapeled shirt on Akki. I really like Twinkle's dress, love the way she has accessorized with the two tone shoes and the pink clutch. Only, I think the dress is perfect for a dinner party, not for a premier.


Deepika glammed it up - but look at the outfit - another sad story. Same colors as the one in LA just jazzier. Sorry just not liking it.

Chandni Chowk to China LA Premier

Ok so, here is the deal. Chandni Chowk to China (CC2C) is having 7 premiers all over the globe in a span of about 2 weeks. How are the stars and crew going to accomplish this incredible task - not by taking commercial flights, oh no. They are flying in a private jet courtesy of Akshay's close buddy in Canada. So we have Akshay Kumar, his wife Twinkle, his co-star Deepika Padukone, the producer and director of CC2C flying in the jet.

The first premier was in LA. Let's check out the fashion....









Why a white suit Akshay? If you had to wear white why could you not have teamed it with a black shirt, it would have given the suit some edge. This, dude, is not flying. I like Twinkle's saree, love how her hair is styled, her make up and her contrast ,diamond and emerald, earrings BUT what's with the big Anya Hindmarch clutch. It is a beautiful bag no doubt but it just does not go with a saree, it is too big. She would have been perfect with a smaller glitzy clutch.
Deepika, who designed that horrendous green velvet net thing, you are wearing? Girl you have the body, the face, height - did you really need to wear something from a 70's B grade movie?
Do you agree? Please post your comments let me know what you think.

Wearing Indian at the Golden Globes

While it is really nice to see non-Indians dressed in Indian attire, I really do wish they would make better choices. These are really sad :(
