Tanushree Dutta
Tanushree Dutta's claim to fame was not when she was crowned
Miss India 2004, nor when the promos of both her films hit the
screen. It was when she turned up at the music launch of her
film 'Chocolate' in an itsy bitsy, green backless outfit. She
sent the paparazzi crazy behind her, all running over each other
for a picture of her bare back.
Ideal Bachelorette: Miss India 2004 Tanushree DuttaBut Tanushree
believes she is an ideal bachelorette. Why? She has reasons
enough to believe so, and to convince others too. "I am a normal
bachelor. I hang around with my friends, I do some bird
watching, and I am career oriented, like any normal girl my age
would be", she reasons. Though not every girl her age would be
surrounded by people, the way stars are. Tanushree knows it too.
And admits that it sometimes it bothers her too. Never unnerves
her though. "It bothers me, because I am a very private person.
And I feel my privacy is being invaded when people keep staring
at me most of the time." How does she manage all the male
attention then, one wonders. Considering that she was a Miss
India, and is one of the hottest stars in tinsel town now,
surely there must be a long list of men ogling at her. "I enjoy
the male attention I get", says Tanushree gleefully, and quickly
adds on a serious note, "but I am careful too at the same time.
I don't want to invite trouble, because as I said before I am a
very private person."
The world is an artist's critique. Being an actor, Tanushree is
not new too criticism nor compliments. But wouldn't it be
interesting to know what she likes and dislikes in herself?
Let's start with the qualities she admires in herself. "I like
my attitude to take life as it comes. Then I am hard working,
and sincere too", she says. Now for the qualities she dislikes
in herself. "There is nothing I dislike about me, simply because
I wouldn't be who I am, if I'd change anything in myself", says
the rising star diplomatically. "I think I am a wee bit short
tempered and impulsive though", she says after a little prodding.
Ideal Bachelorette: Miss India 2004 Tanushree DuttaOkay guys,
here's your golden chance to know what is Tanushree's idea of an
ideal partner. Though the lass insists she has no intention to
tie the knot for another 8-9 years (which is not such a long
wait for die hard fans, after all, is it?) "I would want my man
to be mature, understanding and to give me ample space in every
aspect of life. Also a good sense of humor is a must." And turn
offs? "Bad breadth is a major turn off", shrieks Tanushree. "I
am very impressed with chivalrous men", she says in the same
breadth. Women mature earlier than women. And Tanushree wants a
mature man! "I think so too. In most instances I've seen, a
woman is far more mature than a man", she cooes.
That is not all. Just one more criteria. "A man has to be well
dressed too. They say clothes maketh a man. The first impression
has a lasting impression. Not the last impression, but it is the
first impression that is always there in your mind. I may change
my opinion about a person after meeting him on other occasions,
but you never know, there may never be a second chance,
sometimes", says Tanushree philosophically.
Ideal Bachelorette: Miss India 2004 Tanushree DuttaTanushree has
lived in a nuclear family and opines that she longed to be part
of a joint family, when she ties the knot 8-9 years down the
line, but chooses a nuclear family a second later. "I guess it
is more practical, considering that I would like to continue
with acting after getting married too", she states. "My
priorities will change, but I believe a woman should always keep
herself busy and not be dependent", she says in a matter of fact
tone.
Considering that she wants to pursue her career after shaadi too, would she
prefer a spouse from the industry itself? "I honestly haven't
given it a thought at all, but it all depends on the tuning
between my partner and me. The rest is immaterial", she declares.
So what are you waiting for. Now that you know exactly what to
do and what not to, you'd better scrub your teeth, start
exercising your grey cells, grow up (she likes mature men,
remember), hire a stylist, and above all brush up on your sense
of humour as well.
