Tatoo, lovely earrings, long necklaces,colorful Bangles, unique rings, designer watch, large borders
on bright Sarees.. and the smile on the ladies faces..
What can I say, it must have been an
occasion everyone wanted it to be..
On the contrary, Men serious look, loose belt and vintage eye glass like automobile accessories
That must have been a supercool day. You speak highly of VB's charm, I'm sure her blog (if he had one) would talk about yours!
Older ladies are more hap'ning than boring youngsters these days, for sure :)
Can't understand the purpose of it at all. Is it to boast to friends
(a typical Indian trait)and whoever cares to listen that a yesterday's cine star visited your house? Would have been something if Dalai Lama was there with you. But then India is one big Bollywood for the Indian middle and chattering classes. Wonder whether your sister would have been allowed as far as Vyjayanthimala Bali's house's gate in her Bollywood years. Three old ladies, the same old tale.
Raj Kapoor was not tired of South Indian actresses particularly if they were dancing damsels- Vyjayanthimala, Padmini and Hema Malini. Dr Bali was Raj Kapoor's physician. The plot thickened then but who cares now. Any photo opportunity with actresses of any age and era not bad for the soul it appears.
Some one photographed recently Doris Day walking in a Califonian suburbs carrying plastic grocery bag. She gently and gracefully faded away. Thee is a lesson there.
Raji, That was rocking. So cool. Can i add anything else to say how 'with it ' you hep young ladies look in contrast to the serious men as Anonymous says.
What a lovely occasion. And Vy seems a gracious lady. You handled it all so well. And took some great photographs for us to share. Maiji looks more regal than anyone else.
The vanjikottai song is real treat to watch. How fresh faced they look and how utterly graceful they are. And how lost poor hapless Gemini looks. Just like real life.:-)
This was a great visit ! This woman looks so fit in her seventies ... that reminds me one more time how oimportant it is to do physical exercise no matter how "young" we are !!! thanks for the video too !
Namaki, Kallu - She is remarkably fit; she played golf till recently. and dances Bharata natyam regularly.I am glad you liked the video, it is one of my evergreen favourites.
Anonymous 3 - I think you are so right about her.
