Simi Garewal seems to look younger with each passing year; I think she’s Bollywood’s very own version of A Curious Case of Benjamin Botox! But yes, her unchanged features aside, Ms Garewal sure has managed to keep her enthusiasm going in a way that would put even some of the younger stars to shame. So in honour of her birthday, we’re selecting some of her more desirable (aka tolerable) episodes from her new show, Simi Selects India’s Most Desirable.
1. Sidharth Mallya
The way she insists on calling him Sidhartha all the time is just hilarious, as is her randomly declaring her love for Vijay Mallya. And if none of that holds your fancy, you can just tune out the words and listen to their accents and decide which you like most (or least).
2. Karan Johar
Something fun about seeing the tables turned – with KJo, we had the interviewer being interviewed, and well, who isn’t interested in seeing the Simi/KJo interaction?
3. Shahid Kapoor
This one wins for the audience interaction round… loved it!
4. Abhay Deol
I don’t know why but I get the feeling Abhay is thinking, “What the hell am I doing here?” throughout the interview, haha. Plus his reactions to Kiki are just awesome; at one point it seems like he’s actually cringing!
5. Lady Gaga
Of course Lady Gaga would make it to the list! It’s pretty trippy to think of the two of them sharing the same stage. Also, it seems Simi has taken a page out of Gaga’s book because she’s thought out-of-the-box while dressing! She’s wearing some weird headpiece and… she’s also dabbled in some black! *gasp*
One wish…
We have only one wish for Ms Garewal’s birthday. Please. We’ve learned to live with Simi’s simpering and awkward questioning, but Kiki has got to go!
