Lifting the haze surrounding Salman's Hazel
And by the way, her name is Rose Dawn. Here's the full lowdown for those who wanted more juice on Sallu's latest squeeze
While the British might be busy scrutinizing Kate Middleton, we in Mumbai have our own, on-going investigations of a London belle who seems to have made her entry into the Khan dynasty.
Born in Essex, north-east London, Hazel took inspiration from her Indian mother's roots and enrolled into a local Bollywood dance academy.
Rose Dawn, aka Hazel, was an extra on Harry Potter's second, third and fourth series of films. Probably that's where she learnt how to cast her spell on Bollywood's most eligible bachelor, Sallu!
While holidaying in Mumbai six years ago, she chanced upon several opportunities to pursue her acting career. Ever since then she has appeared in the Tamil film, Billa (2007) and in some of the top commercials on air, garnering a lot of popularity in the ad-film circuit.
Our Londoner has also trained in kathak, bharatanatyam, jazz, tap dance, ballet, hip-hop and the basics of belly dancing (hmmmm...). At the age of 19 she earned praise for gyrating to Kahin Pe Nigahen (the Suga Candy version, for all you chartbuster fiends out there).
Hazel, like Sallu's ex-flame Katrina Kaif, is currently taking Hindi diction classes from Vidur Chaturvedi for Sallu's brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri's remake of the Malayalam super hit Bodyguard; she plays the second lead opposite Sallu.
When contacted, Chaturvedi tells us, "Yes, I am training Hazel who is in Bodyguard. It has been a week since I have been coaching her at Atul Agnihotri's office." Will our pardesi girl also make it big a la Kaif?
