Y-es, I’m fining HIM, probably the only man in Bollywood who sends my heart aflutter. Wanna know why?

When you’re Rahul Bose, merely turning up in an immaculately cut suit* at an event is not enough − we demand he puts a little more thought when putting together his outfits. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with his ensemble for the Midnight’s Children premiere – but it’s just that it’s inappropriate for an event taking place after sunset, that too during the winter months. You don’t wear white/beige/cream or any light colour for an evening do – and I expect Mr Bose, of all the people, to be very much aware of it.

Had he gone for something similar to the slate suit (by Tom Ford, btw!) on Jude Law at the Side Effects premiere, it’d have been perfectly fine.

Mr Bose, that’s one helluva suit, just reserve it for day events. Indeed, I’m that exacting when it comes to you and your namesake, that boutique Bollywood actor… 😉

*It is a given from him!
