I wanted to edit my post and I deleted and then forgot to come back. Please excuse the awkward posting/removing/re-posting of this comment Lol<br /><br />Okay I changed my mind then changed it back again. So I am still voting poolside but the sarong is a close second. However poolside still takes the cake.<br /><br />Looking forward to the poll results here!

Do you know any film, in which Hema Malini (or any other beautiful actress from 70s) appears in traditional Indian clothes near the temple? (I'm making a video for youtube using Bizet's "Au fond du temple saint".)<br />ElsaElsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17755732802396255201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-14820615427514531152009-10-15T14:35:59.733-05:002009-10-15T14:35:59.733-05:00I wonder if Shashi hated those pictures.

I love him anyway, because even if there are many unflattering ones, there are as many good ones.

Its the fact that the face appears to be disproportionately larger than the rest of him. I actually liked the pool-side beery-leery one when Memsaab posted it, till someone commented (on the post) that he looked like he was about to burp! The sarong one isnt too bad if the pictures on the wall are disregarded. He is in a designer <i>lungi</i> which would NEVER be worn on a poolside. And the thumb-to-mouth gesture probably is his way of wondering who would believe that he can read Chinese/Japanese. ;-)Bollyviewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17270927806254662068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-85138804735367906012009-10-14T21:08:56.061-05:002009-10-14T21:08:56.061-05:00This picture must be from the late 60's or the...This picture must be from the late 60's or the early 70's, because the lungi (aka sarong) was a popular item then! Methinks I too owned one in those days - it was unisex! <br /><br />I had one friend in college in those days who was mad over Shashi, and I seriously think you must be that friend's daughter or something - you share the same Shashi genes!eljayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17356849436510208447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-21147327252898072782009-10-14T13:51:23.426-05:002009-10-14T13:51:23.426-05:00She got the poolside beer one from me I think:
