On a Date with Nargis Fakhri: Part 1 : Bollywood News

This is a picture perfect slideshow any journalist in the world would hanker after. By the end of it (and I wont be surprised) Devansh Patel will be the envy of all men. Why? Well, I have the stunning Nargis Fakhri in my arm, thats why. For the past decade, India has been looking for its own Nargis Fakhri but every candidate has been flawed, till Imtiaz Ali spotted the diamond that deserved a shine. And like so many men whod queue up to get their hands on the diamond, Im happy to say that I was the lucky one standing first. As I enter the huge en suite room holding the almost 5 feet tall surprise Id got for Fakhri, she screams. I am hiding my face behind the glossy red wrap till she delivers, Ok! You can put that down. I obey and I see her face for the first time. She looks so unpretentious and easygoing; it gets to the point where I almost forget shes Nargis Fakhri, until she kneels down, looks at her present from top to toe, gets her two hands in action and unwraps it passionately. Did I just say easygoing? Wait, theres more! She unties the white ribbon and like any hippie would, makes a head band out of it as she tries on her new skirt: courtesy the red glossy wrapping paper. One look at her and you can certainly conclude that God mustve made her while doing some mischief.

She switches immediately and finds me a cosy corner for our much awaited date chat. I pick up the golden present and place it right where she is seated in her black knee length dress thats whispering in my ears, You cant get any closer than this. Sitting opposite one of the worlds most notorious beauties is an experience that requires some processing. Impressions: She has a seriously filthy laugh; she is graceful and straight-backed with head held high and her photogenic beauty is mesmerizing in real life. Which is quite disturbing because it makes you gaze and gaze. But over the many dates Ive come to know that women who can hypnotize men just by sitting and breathing have a spooky power. Now Im at an arms length away from her and cant help but look right in her eyes. Its evident that she has fine genes and good bones and is considerably more beautiful in flesh than in pictures and in her late twenties, she looks brazen yet girlish, sexy yet sweet, with an almost puppyish enthusiasm. A bombshell of a girl, I would say, Nargis Fakhri is like a tall, frosty glass of milk - but when you take a sip, you realize that the milk has bourbon in it (Milk Punch, as it is known, is a deliciously sweet brunch beverage that you can consume gallons of before you realize youre intoxicated). And the Nargis Fakhri hangover continues...

UKs Harrow Observer columnist and Bollywood Hungamas London correspondent brings you On a Date with the poised, polished, utterly composed and notoriously naughty Nargis Fakhri in this Part 1 exclusive.

Devansh Patel: It took me a lot of time to figure out what gift to buy for you. So here I was looking at some dozen candle stands till my eyes spotted this poor tall one standing all alone.

Nargis Fakhri: Poor thing? But hey, if my house sets on fire, its all going to be your fault.
