(NSI News Source Info) November 9, 2008: The reigning Baadshah of Bollywood Shahrukh Khan celebrated his 43rd birthday, Aishwarya Rai proudly turned 35 and Tabu turned 38. Bollywood’s creme de la creme has really come of age. Top Bollywood heroes are all above 40 and top actresses are in their early and mid-thirties.
Aamir Khan too is 43, Salman Khan is 42, Akshay Kumar 41, Sanjay Dutt 49, Anil Kapoor 48. Salman Khan still annoyingly lurks around roles of a young man waiting to fall in love. Aamir Khan, carries his age with class and focuses on a lot more than chocolate romance that has been SRK’s department for a long long time. But with Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi Shahrukh seems to show that as an actor he is quite comfortable with his age, although Om Shanti Om was quite a shocker in this matter.
All top Bollywood actresses are in their thirties. Mallika 36, Aishwarya 35, Preity 33, Amisha 32, Sushmita 32, Bipasha 31, Rani 30 and Vidya 30. Kareena Kapoor 28, Priyanka Chopra 26 and Amrita Rao 27 are in their late twenties and have still some time to go before their careers start sagging but for all the beauties in their 30s, they start worrying about their future, marriage and their biological clock that keeps ticking faster at that age.
As far as the actresses are concerned, these days young guns like Prachi Desai 20, Kangana Ranaut 21, Deepika Padukone 22, Minnisha Lamba 23, Asin 23, Sonam Kapoor 23, and Katrina Kaif 24 are topping the popularity charts along with guys like Ranbir Kapoor 26 and Imran Khan 25 who are just in their mid-20s.
Some people like Mallika Sherawat and Bipasha Basu have gone at length to hide their original age. Bipasha who went around the world saying she is 29 only is actually 32 years old. Her school junior from Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan, Kolkata who is herself actually 29 says,
“Bipasha was my senior in school and at least three years older than me. I don’t know how she suddenly cut down so many years”.
Mallika Sherawat, although has every excuse to make her look like a 27 year old but she is actually not. She has apparently had a long struggling phase of modelling, air hosting and even an alleged failed marriage. That makes her just not less than 36 years old. Yet she recently celebrated her 28th birthday.
I wish Bollywood learns to age gracefully… even if they dont there is always Godrej, Loreal and Garnier for their rescue… you know what I mean.
