Amrita Rao has fun in Hyderabad

Dec 11, 2007

Amrita Rao was in Hyderabad for the shooting of her Telugu film ‘Athidhi’. The gal wanted to go to Char Minaar and also shop in the famous Choori Bazaar. So she wore huge sun glasses and tied her hair back in pony in order to go unrecognized, and went to Char Minar with some friends.

Unfortunately, as soon as she got off the car, people recognized her and started mobbing her. She had to return without getting the chance to buy anything. That is when somebody came with the idea of using a burkha and Amrita went out once again.

“I had such a great time. I climbed up on Char Minar, rubbed shoulder with everybody in the crowd, went to the Choori Bazaar and really shopped for so many bangles. They have lovely bangles and they are so different. I even went to shop for stone studded jewellery. It was fun talking to people without getting recognised and being myself again,” laughs Amrita.

At present, Amrita has in her kitty, ‘Shortkut’, which is Anil Kapoor’s home production with Akshay Khanna, Arshad Warsi and Chunkey Panday. Another film is with Shyam Benegal which is one of the biggest opportunities for her this year. The promos of E.Niwas’ ‘My name is Anthony Gonsalvis’ is already out and is scheduled for release in January next year.
