Bobby Darling goes bald!

What do Britney Spears and Bobby Darling have in common? A clean-shaven head

MAIN HOON NA: Bobby Darling
Recently Bobby Darling shaved off her head for a film called Kalpvriksh — The Wishing Tree.

Here, Bobby, who has redefined her gender in Bollywood, talks to HiTLIST about her bald pate.

Why have you shaved off your head?

Actually, I shaved off my head a year and a half back for a film called Kalpvriksh, which did not happen then. That same film is happening now.

So you had a bald head a year-and-a- half back too?

Yeah, but nobody knew about it (laughs). I too kept it a secret because it wouldn't have been fair to reveal the look as the film did not roll then.

Was it the director Manika Sharma's idea?

LOVE ME, LOVE MY PATE: Britney Spears
Manika and I decided on the bald look. I play a poor guy who keeps complaining that he is a woman trapped in a man's body — just like I am in real life.

After this role, those who make fun of me will change their opinion. I wear torn ghagra cholis in the film and sell daatun (a medicinal twig used for brushing teeth) to earn a living.

Manika is a friend. I've known her from the days of Chalte Chalte, where she had come to meet SRK.

She happened to tell me that she was making a film about people who earnestly want their wish to be fulfilled.

When I heard the story, I told her to cast me in the film. I too have an earnest desire to undergo a sex change.

Did Britney Spears inspire you at all?

To an extent, yes. If Britney can carry it off with style, I think I can too.

Where did you shave your head?

I called the local barber home and he did the needful.

Why not a salon?

I was feeling nervous and shy. Anybody who does something different with one's looks is lying if he/she says there were no apprehensions. I felt that if I go to a salon, my nervousness might make me rethink my decision.

Any regrets?

Not at all.

The best compliment?

When I had gone takla one-and-half year back, I showed my look to Riteish Deshmukh. We had started Apna Sapna Money Money then. He said I looked like an angel.

The worst compliment?

Only few of my friends know that I have shaved my head. Nobody has said I look bad. In fact, they all complimented me on my new look. They say that I make a very cute takla.

Do you sport your bald head in the open?

No way. I wear a wig. I have 30 wigs.

Why haven't you gone out in your new look?

Well, it's early days. I just got it done.

Men who look sexy when bald?

I liked Salman Khan when he had shaved his head. I was on the sets of Jaan-E-Mann when he had gone bald. I think Hrithik will make a lovely takla too, since he has sharp features.

Aditya Panscholi also looks good bald. And of course, my ultimate fantasy, Akshay Kumar. And yes, I went crazy when I learnt that Irrfan Pathan (the cricketer) had gone takla a few months ago.

I consider Irrfan to be my husband (laughs). I called him to compliment him on his new look.

And women?

Persis Khambatta looked cute. Shabana Azmi is God when it comes to acting, but I don't think she looked good when she shaved her head.

I would like to see Sridevi go bald. Even Rani will look interesting without hair.

Subtle look

Director Manika Sharma says, "I told Bobby to remove all her garish make-up as I wanted a subtle look for the film. When I told her the story, she cried.

She said that she too has an earnest desire and I must take her in the film. I weaved her character into the story and it worked out very well.

My film focuses on environmental problems and it is the story of five children. I have completed the first schedule and the second starts in Panchgani in mid-May."

look Mr. V.T..

u need to honestly stop passing such remarks on people....u are entitled to ur opinion as long as u keep it clean and safe..

i have been following on ur posts recently and u have to stop making rude/harsh/unnecessary comments on stars/celebrities/common person...this is called violating the peace of the forum, which is against IF rules...

ive told u many times b4 also to keep ur opinion to urself if u wanna make such comments.....if u are disinteretested in a topic....no need to post....if u have nothing good to say.....den atleast dont say rubbish!

if u continue to behave like this....and continue to pass such comments on people and label them as ur own opinion....then this matter will be taken further to the IF Dev Team...
