My friend Vidyut Jamwal has been one of my favourite models since the past decade or so. He's been the face of many brands and numerous girls across the country send him fan-mail by the truckloads. Most of all, I like him because he's a deeply spiritual human-being, he has a wicked sense of humour and frankly, he's one of the last of the "good guys"left on the planet. This was reason enough for me to trek from my residence in Malad West to Bandra's Mehboob Studio to cheer him on as he makes his debut in Bollywood.
Vidyut was kind enough to invite me for a special cast and crew interaction of his movie - FORCE - with the media. Dressed all dapper in a white shirt and neatly ironed trousers, he cut a dashing figure as he sat on stage and fielded questions galore from the inquisitive press.
In the film, Vidyut plays the villain and quite frankly, as far as I can remember, he is the hottest guy ever to play a villain in a Bollywood film. Trained extensively in Martial Arts, Vidyut gives his character a twist with his raw sex-appeal. Like honestly, if you think of the bad guys who made being a villain fashionable, the first names that come to mind are Ranjeet, Amrish Puri and Shakti Kapoor - and none of them were even remotely good-looking.
FORCE also stars John Abraham in the lead and this is being touted as his come-back vehicle. Others in the film include Sandhya Mridul and Genelia D'Souza (the only two girls in the film, among six guys) and model Amit Gaur.
By the way, Amit was with me in school, many years ago, and it's nice to see a school buddy get into the big world of Bollywood.
