Tamanna

I reached the airport, much sooner than required, while returning from BLR --> BOM.

Airport is always an interesting place to watch crowd and there was some peculiarity, some thing unusual in the way the people were seated.

Like a magnet aligning the iron dust, there was a pattern, I could sense.

I walked around and spotted Tamanna Bhatia (Google brings about 8 million results) with her entourage.

You may say, So what? yet another celebrity.

As an actress, she was an average star in terms of acting talent, or that was I thought.

The first thing that struck me was, she looks very very young, compared to her screen character. Gorgeous and petite! Very clear complexion and without makeup, it takes a while to recognize that she is the one that dances around trees in Switzerland or Newzealand or wherever with her macho heroes.

The most important point:
Her natural expressions (smile, laughter, the look while intently listening) were wonderful. Beautiful. Unfortunately, never seen in the screen!

The Directors have not allowed her to be in her natural self and make the acting natural. Perhaps, she needs a Director like Maniratnam.

Trivia: She was gorging on a chocolate doughnut, unmindful of the people looking/staring/ogling at her in the Barista.

She later walked up, stood in queue ordered for a drink, paid the change - no tantrums or whatsoever.

Leaving with a question:
How long it takes to a hero to acclimatize while acting with such stunning beauties in close quarters?

PS: If this post feels outright falling over Tamanna, that was how I felt when she was around.
