The older the better - Rajeev Masand

She's one of the most promising newcomers in Bollywood currently, having appeared in only one film yet—a bonafide blockbuster. That she looks far older than her years seems to have worked in her favour, given that she's snagged films opposite some of the most successful leading men, each in his forties.

Incidentally, according to the industry grapevine, she's always been partial to older men; perhaps that explains the link-ups with at least three of her leading men. With her first co-star, there were rumours that she'd often stay over at his home. Another leading man she's signed three films with has openly said he's a "fan" of her voluptuousness. The third co-star allegedly had her roomed on the same floor as himself during an outdoor schedule recently, while the rest of the cast were put up in rooms on different floors.

One female industry insider, who was friends with this actress growing up, reveals that even at the age of 14, this young lady was always besotted by older men. On the pretext of seeing her female friends, this young girl would reportedly visit her much-older boyfriend, and was once caught by her mother, who gave her a solid thrashing and also reprimanded her friends for covering up for her.
