Amrita's finally takes a much needed break
Amrita has taken a vacation almost after 3 years and this time it was a a pleasure come business trip.
Amrita was seen letting her hair down at popular hangout spots, Brittos and Mambos, pampering herself to Aryuvedic spa treatments, riding bikes in the marrow by lanes, dancing to live goan music, and enjoying spicy food by the beach in the shacks at Hotel Cidade .
What was most amusing was that many of her fans mistook her sister, Preeta for her due to their uncanny resemblance and asked Preeta for pictures and autographs who maintained a very low profile. Preeta will be foraying into Tollywood with her first Kannada big banner film next year March but unlike Amrita prefers to stay away from the public glare and is also an entertainment columnist. Amrita visited the famous Mangeshi temple to seek divine blessings before she left for Mumbai.
Our sources saw Amrita mingling with directors Vishal Bharadwaj, Madhur Bhandarkar, Amol Palekar and Gurinder Chaddha during IIFI. Wonder what's cooking? We also spotted Aftaab Shivdasani sharing a hearty laugh with her on the disastrous and unorganized fashion show of which she was the show stopper.
Amrita only received her outfits half an hour before the show and used her personal accessories but preferred to stick to her commitment and still walked inspite of receiving smses from the audience not to come on stage. Speaking of IIFI Amrita was extremely upset about the IIFI organisation this year, as she had to wait almost for an hour for her room reservations to be sorted out followed by no escort and thereafter meaningless events.
Goa is Amrita's favourite holiday destination in India was wishing Madh or Alibaug were also converted into holiday destinations similar to Goa.
Amrita Rao is not brand conscious
Amrita has been rising slowly and steadily in the popularity meter.
She's has been approached for various endorsements off late of which she considered Vivel Shampoos. However this actress is not in a mad rush or a singing on spree as we can see.
Very recently, a prominent gutka company (Pan Parag) approached her for an endorsement and were willing to pay any price just to have Amrita on board as they thought their target customer group identified the best with Amrita and Shahid as they had undertaken a survey to justify the same.
However Amrita who is a non-supporter of tobacco in any form declined this offer immediately but it seems the brand doesn't seem too happy letting go. Now we must say here's one actress who thinks more of the social benefits than the moolah she's raking in. They say the slow and the steady wins the race.
But yes Amrita will be endorsing a premium tea brand very soon!
Amrita and Shahid
Recently we noticed that Shahid Kapur, Amrita's once upon a time co-star and close friend has not been responding to Amrita's twitter messages inspite of his fans re-tweeting him on his ignorance.
A birdie tells us that Shahid is very much in touch with Amrita through smses.
Wonder if he believes to keep his tweets to Amrita for private viewing only! Amrita's real id on twitter is Amritarao17 and I'm sure we should once again remind Shahid it's good social conduct to reply to messages from old time buddies even if you are riding a high horse.
