We all know how much Saira Banu adores Shahrukh Khan. She feels that only "he could have played Devdas". But after a private screening in Mumbai for thespian Dilip Kumar, who made Sarat Chandra Chatterjee`s character legendary in the 1955 Bimal Roy version, guess who was walking on seventh heaven?
It was Aishwarya Rai, who plays Paro in the film and wanted "Dilipsaab`s comments" on her performance.And what did the veteran actor have to say? "They are all very good in the film - Shahrukh, Madhuri and Aishwarya - but I couldn`t take my eyes off her," pointing to a bemused Ash giggling in a corner.
According to the actress, no other comment or critics` opinion matters to her anymore, now that she has the final verdict. Just for the record, Ash. Didn`t Dilipsaab talk about your looks alone? The world knows about your charm and ethereal looks. Shouldn`t you be rejoicing when the world starts complimenting you for your acting talent some day?
