Fresh from the triumph of Aamir Khan’s 200-crores Ghajini, British actress Jiah Khan is now working hard on Yahoo with Shahid Kapur and – no mean dancer herself – has been raving about his dancing. In the movie, Shahid is seen practicing a form of urban dance called krumping. Justin Timberlake’s choreographer, Marty Kudelka, had been roped in to teach him the steps. “I remember the first day of rehearsals with Justin’s choreographer Marty,” says Shahid, “Suddenly I started getting sweaty hands and became nervous. I was feeling that it’s very nice to see the videos of people and say that we too can dance like them. But when you actually get down to doing it, it does make you feel a little nervous.”
Jiah is a committed member of PETA and has been campaigning against the use of glass-coated manja used in the strings of traditional kites in India. When the manja falls on trees and poles, birds get tangled up in it and it is said that thousands suffer from cut wings every year. The campaign coincides with the festival of Makar Sankranthi when kite-flyers fill the streets. “Glass-coated manja is a public health hazard and causes excruciating death for birds who get tangled up in it”, explains Jiah, “We’re asking participants in the Makar Sankranthi contests and all kite-flying competitors to immediately stop using glass-coated manja and to conduct their sport in a way that isn’t deadly to humans and wildlife.”
Yep, I think she’s desperate for attention… What do you guys think??? In Ghajini all the attention was taken over by Asin, inst it???
ya she is Sam, Asin is a great actress to watch. We all went to Auckland and travel through Car Rental Auckland and we saw jiah khan there in auckland, she looks ok but not as beautiful as Asin.
