Akshay likes women in traditional attire (Snippets)
October 26th, 2010 - 7:40 pm ICT by IANS
New Delhi, Oct 26 (IANS) True to his earthy image, Bollywood star Akshay Kumar says he likes women in traditional attire.
“Women look fabulous in traditional attires. I have always liked women dressed in Indian clothes and with a ghunghat,” Akshay said.
The actor, who is hosting and co-judging Star Plus’ “MasterChef India”, is particularly impressed with Zebi, a contestant who hails from Lucknow. A very quiet young woman, Zebi has not compromised on her traditions and culture even while shooting and is always clad in simple salwar-kameez and takes a dupatta on her head.
“Zebi has the nazakat (grace) that every Indian woman should have in her,” the actor said.
“MasterChef India” is a cookery competition show.

Shweta Tiwari, Dolly Bindra in catfight!
What started off as a minor argument over kitchen work soon became a major catfight between actors Shweta Tiwari and Dolly Bindra in reality show “Bigg Boss 4″.
Just a day after loud-mouthed Dolly entered the show, she tried to take charge of cooking in the kitchen - a department that Shweta had been handling so far.
Shweta, who has had a sour past with Dolly, expressed her desire to quit from the kitchen team Monday evening. That was followed by a bitter war of words between the two ladies, says a source.
They started hurling abuses and allegations against each other and dug into their past rivalry because Shweta’s former husband Raja Chaudhary had once slapped Dolly at a party.
The episode featuring the catfight will be aired Tuesday.
