NEHA DHUPIA IN A HOLLYWOOD SHOW


Bollywood babe Neha Dhupia is starring in an American TV series titled Bollywood Hero, which is a three part humor mini series.

The film stars Hollywood actor Chris Kattan. And the tagline for the film reads, ‘Chris Kattan goes to India to develop into a Bollywood star’.

Neha plays the role of a Bollywood actress Alima Lakhani opposite American actor comedian Chris Kattan who is well-liked for Saturday Night Live.

Neha said about her sequential launch, ‘It revolves around the main character Chris Kattan who wants to become a Bollywood hero and I play a Bollywood actress, opposite him.’

She has been trying for a while to get into television, she spoke to local media stating the same but first in America, then here, ‘Well only because TV is treated as big as a movie there and after I saw how TV is in India and abroad, I realized there is vast dissimilarity between the two. It's going to be treated as big as a movie.’

She auditioned thrice for the role, and when she lastly bagged the deal, she went about town announcing how she had landed a biggie project.

Tut, tut, take a look at the trailer, it’s funny no doubt but keeps your eyes glued for her, she’s blinking and we miss!

Her friend Tabrez Noorani, who was a line producer on Slumdog Millionaire seems to have helped her get the role, which she denies firmly, saying, ‘I was a part of the project even before Slumdog became a hit.’

True, and who is Chris Kattan anyway? In fact, he should be thanking her instead for launching his career in Bollywood and telly all at once.
