Is he a hunk or is he a calligrapher?

My wildest fantasy: I don't fantasize dude... I make it a reality...

Sonu Sood is a hunk AND a calligrapher.

Bipasha Basu is looking very carefree and naughty here. Thanks mainly to that funky hairdo.

Amrita Rao has hired the services of Shah Rukh Khan's trainer to help her achieve physical perfection. Looks perfect enough to me.

Stardust 20091201 Scan08 Himesh Reshammiya

Looking all ripped and ready to go. Himesh is yet another multi-talented prodigy in Bollywood. He started producing blockbuster television serials at the tender age of 16 and became a music director when he was only 25. At 32, he stepped into the world of singing. His debut album Aap Kaa Surroor (2006) proved to be a mega hit.

Yet another example of just how slight a change in hairstyle can make someone look so different. Also notice how Abhishek's head makes an otherwise Unforgettable Tour very much Forgettable.

I love Aishwarya's expression in this snap. The toning is great and the neck is covered but the expression literally takes the cake.

This snap did actually manage to surprise me a bit. Ranbir is looking taller and Katrina is looking shorter than our popular perception of them might be.

This is a really odd image with the right elbow bent forward and the hair all over the place and yet it works. That's the magic of photography - moment capture. You have to keep clicking and then viewing. It is like banging arbitrarily on a keyboard and suddenly something starts sounding musical.

Kajol almost always ends up looking great. Here, however that extra edge is provided by a subtle gradient in tone.

I love the light play and expression on Tanushree's face. The movie Apartment is a thriller starring Anupam Kher, Tanushree Dutta, Rohit Roy and Neetu Chandra.

Stardust 20091101 Scan11 Asin Thottumkal

I do not like many many things in this snap - the bangles, the nail polish, the ring, the fabric, the earring, the hair endings and so on and yet this image manages 90 plus for one reason alone. It depicts what Asin is really like in real life: an innocent sex BOMB.

Asin's silhouette is looking so powerful here. Not quite femdom but it's a keeper none the less. It was sad to hear about Salman's dogs Myson and Myjaan.

Stardust 20091101 Scan09 Farah Khan

When one hears the name Farah Khan, words like critical, domineering, grouchy, control freak, achiever etc come to mind. So one can only wonder what sort of good news could have put her in this kind of a mood.

Dino Morea is half Italian. He does not need to follow fashion trends. Style comes embedded in his genes.

Stardust 20091101 Scan07 Amrita Rao

(click on image for full view)

Not only has Amrita Rao made full use of the end of season sale at the bangle store, she has used them on her ears too. But the hair is nice and I am a big fan of glares pulled over the hair even though the effect here is not as contrasty as it could have been.

Stardust 20091101 Scan06 Aditya Narayan

(click on image for full view)

Even though Aditya Narayan is a bit short, his proportions are nearly perfect. And even though tucking in one's sweater is generally not a done thing, here it works great because of the way he is carrying his clothes. The composition and toning is excellent too. Sadly I am cutting as many as 10 marks for the careless mop of hair that has completely destroyed the overall impact.

Stardust 20091101 Scan05 Karan Johar

(click on image for full view)

Karan Johar is the most powerful man in Bollywood. He has his fingers in many pies. He is a producer, a director, a writer, an actor, a host, a designer and so on. Now with those glares and that look, he could easily give many a male model some sort of a complex.

Stardust 20091101 Scan04 Aamir Khan

Is it just me or are Aamir Khan's hands actually that unsightly? It is surprising that such a snap actually made it to the final set of photos for the interview.

Thank goodness, Stardust decided to use this image on the cover. Look at the next one and you'll know why.
