Oh dear. This week your Kamini will bitch about Bollywood's best, er, worst. Of particular bitch-worth is Sanjay Leela Bhansali's new film, Guzarish. The film centers around a character who plays - gasp - a paraplegic, and entices his lovely nursemaid to help him kill himself.  Sound familiar? Can there not be film where the person with a disability wants to die?  Are we that afraid of the differences among ourselves?  Apparently the answers are respectively:  No and Yes.

Hot Hot Hot Hrithik Roshan is prepping to play the role of a paraplegic through wheelchair practice at home.  Note the "at home" nuance:  Important because of course a paraplegic (gasp!) would never leave his house (oh no!) in a wheelchair.  The world of curb cuts isn't enough to cut through ignorance.  What a "dedicated and serious actor he is."

To be fair, Hrithik is taking this role very seriously, and has committed himself to understanding this character in an authentic way.  But despite this good intent, I wonder how deep this understanding can go if the role in itself is flawed.  I struggled to find anyone from the disability community who would agree that this film contributes a needed image of people with disabilities.  I would rather see Hrithik as the handsome, strapping romantic lead in a love story, where the character just happened to use a wheelchair. No more, no less.

Break a leg, Hrithik!  I mean don't because if it's permanent, then you'll have to off yourself.  Although it could be a good ploy to get closer to the amazingly gorgeous Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

More Chatter...

Apparently rapper 50 Cent had the common sense to remove a tattoo on his hand to become more viable onscreen in Hollywood. Too bad his common sense lacked knowing that it's illegal to drive around NYC with machine guns. L.A., too!

Mariah Carey alleges in her new single that Eminem is "Obsessed" with her. Frankly the cougar is obsessed withherself.  I couldn't take one minute of that song, much less care about a relationship that may have occurred eight years ago. Hobbies, people. You need hobbies.

Lady GaGa spreading rumors that she and Kanye West are married. Hmmm. Maybe they'll mirror Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif and hire look alike actors to create a sex tape to release in Canada. After all, attention is attention: Good for the career.
