Manisha Koirala is perpetually at war with cinematographers. Her grouse: they rarely present her in a flattering light. Remember the fit she threw after Inder Kumar's Mann?

Now her pet project has turned into her pet peeve. She was so excited over director Shashilal Nair's home production, Ek Chhoti Si Love Story, which is about a 14-year-old boy's infatuation with a much older woman, played by Manisha, that she completed the film in 26 days flat. Nair was naturally thrilled since he was working with a small budget and Manya's cooperation was a Godsend.

But after the Nepali beauty saw the edited version of the film, she did an about-turn and decided to wash her hands off the film's publicity. "I am looking fat and ugly and hardly the one someone would fall for." But must you blame the filmmaker for the way you look?
