M.F. Hussain Praises BBB

Most of the men ought to take a leaf out of maverick artist M F Husain's book! At 95, when machismo becomes an antiquated memory, and love is merely about 'sharing dentures with the beloved', this avant-garde painter has rewritten the rules of love and recreated the Bible of romance!

This time, he has set another record of sorts by openly admitting his love and adulation for 22-year-old Bollywood babe Anushka Sharma. In a tele tete-a-tete, TOI catches the loverboy going gooey over his latest crush...

Simply floored!
You can easily detect a tinge of jealousy in his voice when he says, "I watched Anushka earlier in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi being wooed by Shah Rukh Khan." But, he quickly says au revoir to his jealously pangs and adds on a happier note, "Recently, when I saw her in Band Baaja Baaraat, I was completed floored by her intelligence! The girl has bewitched me with her ethnic appeal, charming aura and chirpy presence! I'm waiting to paint her in myriad hues now!"

'My dil goes...'
Husain openly admits that he has seen Anushka's latest flick eight times till now and he hasn't "yet had enough of her!" Does that mean his other muses like Madhuri Dixit, Tabu, Amrita Rao and Vidya Balan have fallen out of favour? The magnanimous admirer quickly sets the record straight, "Madhuri still makes my heart go dhak-dhak! And my love is not of restrictive variety, it's a highly aesthetical kind of love, which is all-encompassing!"

'Madhuri should play her age!'
When his muse Madhuri Dixit, whose film 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun' he had watched over 73 times, is making her presence felt on telly and even planning to sign some films again, how does he feel about this development? "I'm thrilled that she will be seen on screen after a long hiatus! But, I want her to play her age and not go for those 'running around the trees' kind of roles! Along with the audience, I'm also waiting to see her beauty unravel itself on 70 mm screen again," says the eternal lover.
