Rakhi Sawant has decided to spare us from her garish make-up now. She went for a makeover. She looks rather different now. People were wondering if she had a cosmetic surgery when she revealed,“I haven’t done any cosmetic surgery. It’s my new way of doing make-up. I attended a course in London which taught me how to do the right make-up. I have decided to go for the clean natural look as opposed to the heavy make-up I used to wear before. That’s why I am looking different.”
She is supposed to have learnt the new tricks of make-up while working for Shammi Kapoor’s son Aditya Raj Kapoor’s forthcoming film Baltidevi, in which she plays the lead role.
Aditya had specifically chosen Rakhi for the lead role of his film, “I saw her on Koffee With Karan. I saw the appeal in her eyes. I fell for her the way all of India fell for her. I saw the emotion in her heart, which was begging to come out. I felt my script had similar feelings. So I went to her the next day and begged her to listen to my script.She read the script and by the fifth page, she had tears in her eyes. She said this was her story and then she hugged me.”
“Baltidevi is a story of a young girl who is married in India and taken to South Hall, London. Her marital life has a rough beginning which culminates in a divorce. It is more of a rags to riches story where a woman, who doesn’t know English, survives in a foreign country by running a dhaba. She starts the concept of Balti chicken and becomes a super cook. She then starts a franchisee and very soon becomes an icon for South Hall by taking care of migrants, people with marital problems, the brokenhearted and so on,” Aditya added.
Wish she could take a few spoken English and pronounciation classes too. Looks like the make-up classes have done a lot good to her. Atleast she is bearable now.
