... but there are *sequins* on his pocket -flaps and nehru collar.

Shiny. Black. Sequins.

And the sandals? the less said the better.

He's a good-looking man, what does this designer have against him?

I lurve the line, cut, etc., but I would indeed de-spangle the pockets and collar. I was going to say osmething about the sandals originally, but then I thought "What in the world do I know about Indian male footwear?" But yeah, not quite as classy as the rest of it. I also think he looks so lovely in colors that the black seems a waste, but I shall not complain further. :)

Hmm, I think the sandals are a bad combination- they should have gotten black traditional shoes, also no need for the top to be so high collared. His top looks like Dr. Evil's from Austin Powers.

But he looks yummy backstage. I take that Akshaye over this :)

The dhoti has been draped gorgeously.
Yeah why black? Looks like he is mourning.

I have a theory: I think Shashi Kapoor and Akshaye have the same jaw. And that is why they are BLB favorites. It's all in the jaw :)

Hi Beth,
Justice obliges me to say that I referred to your exchange above recently, while writing a little something about dear Aksahye!
cheers

the Kapoor family tree

Image
For all your Kapoor Khazana reference needs (and beyond), here is a Kapoor family tree. This image is courtesy of Madhu Jain's book The Kapoors: The First Family of Indian Cinema(Penguin Books India, 2005). Click the picture to enlarge to legible size.

The dates and underlining are my own. My notations indicate who is of what generation: double underlines are for Prithviraj's children; single underlines are for their children; dashed lines for their children; etc.

If you'd rather read, the family tree goes like this, color-coded by major branch and with the names you probably recognize in bold:
first and second generations: Prithviraj Kapoor (born 1906) is the father of Raj (Ranbir Raj, born 1924), Shammi (Shamsher Raj, 1931), and Shashi (Balbir Raj, 1938). Prithviraj and his wife Ramsarni (Rama) also had a daughter, Urmi (between Shammi and Shashi), and two children who died, Ravinder and Devinder.Prithviraj has a brother named Trilok Kapoor, who is a film actor too.

because guests are as gods

Hey, everyone - hi. This is Beth. I am absolutely fascinated with the question of who is reading this, and my curiosity is further piqued by the growth of the happy little dots on my ClustrMap. Either there is some creative ISPing going on here, or I see people visiting from India, Singapore, Mauritius, South Africa, Europe, South America, Canada, and the US. (Special shout-out to Canada! I'm an honourary Canadian! I love you guys!) Anyway, hello to you all! I don't like how most guestbook thingies on websites seem to work, so instead I invite everyone who stops by to leave a little comment on this post (this will also be linked from the nav bar) and say hi and share why you like or are interested in Bollywood - and what brought you here. Thanks! And don't forget to have a snack before you go - they're on the table over there. Punch, too.

the Ganguly, Mukherjee, and Samarth family tree

This group might boggle the mind even more than the Kapoors—to whom, thanks to Kishore Kumar's countless marriages, they are also connected. In college, I had a giant chart of the English royal family since the early medieval period (history major WHAT WHAT), and this one is no less complex. I don't have the words to express how amazed I am by all of this, the layer upon layer of connections, even though there is nothing new in families staying in the same business across generations or in allying with others in the same field. (Click here for a pdf.)

Corollary: now that Rani Mukherjee and Aditya Chopra are married, Uday Chopra and Satyajit Ray aredistantly related. Only by marriage, but still.  Previous family tree projects: the Irani sisters (including Javed Akhtar, Shabana Azmi, and Farah Khan), the Feroz and Sanjay Khans and Roshans (with Mumtaz!),  Satyajit Ray to Mithun Chakraborty (which shows the link to the Kapoors), and the Kapoors (which I need to re-do in a more v…
