Soha Ali Khan Joins the Bikini Race

Looks like it’s the “shed-the-good-girl’s-image” era going on. The otherwise “good girl” actress Soha Ali Khan is all set to pose in a bikini for the cover page of a magazine named Maxim. The magazine also has the credit of roping up actresses like Bipasha Basu, Mallika Sherawat, Mailika Arora and Sherlyn Chopra to pose in bikini for the magazine.
With Mum Sharmeela Tagore having done bikini scenes in her time, this is a girl who surely follows her mama’s footsteps

Rakhi Sawant in a film based on Telgi’s life

Item girl Rakhi Sawant has gyrated to a special song for a film which is apparently based on the life of Abdul Rahim Telgi. Titled MUDRANK - THE STAMP, the film has been completed and is now ready for release.

Even though the film is centered on the life of Telgi, it features Rakhi Sawant as the center of film’s promotion with majority of cut outs, billboards and other publicity material boasting of ‘Rakhi Sawant in the hottest item number’. Composed by Bappi Lahiri, the song is already on air and one has to admit that Rakhi has been far more adventurous in many of her other item numbers in the past, most recently being ‘Dekhta Hai Tu Kya’ [KRAZZY 4].

Made by small time producer Bhagwan Saungar and directed by first time film maker Shakir Shaikh, MUDRANK - THE STAMP features the usual suspects of low budget cinema like Milind Gunaji, Nirmal Pandey, Raza Murad, Anjan Srivastava, Shiva and Amita Nangia. Kailash Manav plays the role of Telgi who is called Velgi in the film.

Interestingly Sambhavna Seth, another established item girl, too has an item number to her credit in MUDRANK - THE STAMP.
