| | Hair-straightening
treatments to use at home |
LATE last year,
tests of the hairstraightening
treatment called
the Brazilian
Blowout found
significant amounts of
formaldehyde, a known carcinogen.
In the face of this, many
salons stopped offering the
treatment. Their curlytressed
clients were forced to
examine other options.
Even the most self-accepting

that will magically

nautch girl–to–queen biopic | THE success of Paan
Singh Tomar hasn´t
satiated director
Tigmanshu Dhulia´s
appetite for biopics.
This time around, he will tackle
a biopic set in medieval times
on Begum Joanna Nobilis
Sombre (1753-1836), popularly
known as Begum Samru, who
started off as a nautch girl (court
dancer) in 18th century India,
eventually becoming the ruler of
Sardhana, a principality near
Meerut.
Importantly, Rani Mukerji has
been pencilled in for the role.
A source close to the project
revealed that, "Last week,
Tigmanshu had a long meeting
with Rani at her office in Juhu.
