It isn’t often that we see Bollywood’s golden oldies adorning newsprint.

Birthday,Bollywood style
It isn’t often that we see Bollywood’s golden oldies adorning newsprint. It is only milestone occasions that get the veterans together and this time around it was seasoned actor Shammi’s 80th birthday. Jaya Bachchan along with Abhishek and Aishwarya were the first to arrive. She soon took it upon herself to make the other guests feel at home. Ash in a simple black dress looked stunning,while Abhishek kept the guests entertained with his one-liners. Waheeda Rehman looked her gorgeous herself in an aqua chiffon sari and a chic gold clutch. Aroona Irani was seen spending some time with her erstwhile co-star Pran. Anupam and Kirron Kher were also present at the do to convey their wishes. Vidya Balan’s wore one her favourite Anarkali outfits.

Showstopper It was a moment when a teary-eyed Shammiji cut her birthday cake and thanked everyone for being there.

Scent Sense
For a change,the usually impassive Arjun Rampal turned an inquisitive scribe at the launch of the Armani fragrance collection in New Delhi. Rampal,natty as always in a striped Armani suit,cheekily asked fragrance expert Axel Denis if wearing an Armani fragrance would made one look like Armani too. Denis,taken aback,blushingly replied,“It’s not supposed to make one look like Armani. Just supposed to make you smell good. The fragrances for men are sportier,and combine masculinity with sensuality.” Rampal,seen often in Delhi when not shooting, dished out some tired rhetoric about his upcoming film Rajniti and adroitly sidestepped some verbal jabs about his ad shoot with Nicole Kidman in Udaipur recently. When a reporter questioned whether he was missing Kidman,Rampal retorted,much to the delight of guests present,“You seem to be missing her more than me.” And he was sore about missing the IPL in South Africa. “I didn’t get time due to my busy shooting schedule,but I will definitely go. All my friends are there,” he said.
