| The sexy salt and pepper look of Jai Walia | ||||
And now even Indian TV characters are sporting this new look. Looking at the dizzy heights to which the popularity of the dashing Jai Walia (Ram Kapoor) in Zee's Kasamh Se, among women of all age groups has reached, it seems Indian women do not think too dissimilarly either. The middle-aged character's charismatic personality and salt-n-pepper look is said to have driven the ladies completely crazy. So much so that his fans were reportedly angry about the fact that the character's grey haired look was toned down in the last few episodes. The buzz is that when the soap started, Ram's hair was completely grey. But it kept decreasing gradually, and one fine day, it was fully gone. When we quizzed the actor (Ram Kapoor) about his 'whitener-disappearing-act' he said, "When the serial started, we were a little confused about how much whitener should be used in my hair. And then it was gradually toned down intentionally. In fact, in one of the episodes, it was completely missing. But then it was by sheer mistake and now you would see it back in my hair." But sources connected to the show say that this change lead to protests all over and went to the extent of even affecting the viewership of the show. The anger was over the fact that Ram Kapoor was trying to look young in the show by ridding himself of the whitener. This obviously must have given the actor and producers (Balaji Telefilms) a lot to worry about. And Ram Kapoor aka Jai Walia was back to where he belonged. It was decided that the whitener would be used for him once again. So it was the viewers' insistence, which forced Ram to go grey again. Shocking, but true! Women actually want to see Jai Walia as a middle aged sexy hunk and not as a young chocolaty hero.So what does Ram Kapoor have to say about the attraction that most ladies have for matured men? Does he agree that women like men with salt-n-pepper hair? "Definitely. In fact my wife (Gautami Gadgil) swoons over George Clooney just because he has salt-n-pepper hair. I get so many compliments because of my hair styling in Kasamh Se," replied a beaming (and relieved) Ram Kapoor. Well that seems to be a lesson learnt. Now the story, the track and the characters may change in Kasamh Se but one thing would surely remain intact. And that is Jai Walia's salt and pepper hair! |
