With fingers crossed... hat better way to Wleave home than with the blessings of those who matter — With a similar desire was Fem- ina Miss India Universe 2003 — Nikita Anand — at Helpage India in Chhattarpur. Said she, ‘‘When I was asked if there was a cause I would devote my life to, I said, ‘for the cause of the elderly’. It came straight from the heart as I truly believe we should not forget our roots and neglect the very people who have shaped our today. More- over, two things I strong- ly believe, help us attain success in life — faith in God and the blessings of our senior citizens.’’ Right from interacting with the aged to giving out tokens of remem- brance, the beauty queen made every effort to get closer to the residents. In fact, the sight was one to remember as one could spot Nikita sharing in- tense moments with one of the elder citizens — Joyce Ezekiel. ‘‘What made you come in here’’, ‘‘How is your stay out here’’ and ‘‘How fair has life been to you’’, were some of the ques- tions Nikita posed. Last but not the least, she even adopted three grannies under the or- ganisation’s Adopt-A- Gran programmme that links disdvantaged older people with people capa- ble of looking after them — both emotionally and financially as well. Inci- dentally,her ‘‘two grans’’, as she calls them, are in today. Later, the lovely Miss India also witnessed an operation of a Helpage Mobile Medicare Unit. Said she, ‘‘Every moment is one that helps me learn more, thereby getting me closer to people around me. I will always cherish these moments, no mat- ter in what part of the world I am.’’

Upon closer look, the man turned out to be none other than our

very own John Abra- ham. John, it seems, was giving a sermon to the lad about the vices of begging. Apparently, the beggar got so bored with John’s never ending phi- losophy that he decided to call it a day and give up begging — it was the best way to get rid of him. Now we can sincerely call him a ‘poor soul’.

A dream come true for Preity! reity Zinta’s film Ar- Pmaan is all set to be screened at the IIFA awards at Jo’burg. The film is also special for the Delhi girl Pre- ity. She says her childhood dream of acting with Am- itabh Bachchan has come true with this film. Preity jumped at the offer when it came from Honey Irani. Let’s say all the best to her and many more films with Big B in future.

The bold and the beautiful ad a long sneak peek at HSooraj Barjatya’s br- eathlessly awaited Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon. All we can say is, it’s gonna jolt those who expect another family drama replete with scenes of eating, dancing and merry-making. The songs are filmed like never before. The verve takes a 180-de- gree swerve from any thing ever done before in a Bar- jatya film. The relentless stress on ebullience is punctuated by a hint of erotica never seen in any of the soft-and-gentle Sooraj’s cinema. And the chemistry between Hrithik and Ka- reena has got to be seen. This film will finally estab- lish Hrithik and Kareena as the most beautiful pair of the new millennium.
