The veteran painter M.F. Hussain, known as the Picasso of India, following Madhuri Dixit, Tabu and Amrita Rao is now magnetized by the ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ leading lady Anushka Sharma.
According to latest reports, Hussain, who is celebrated for his fascinating paintings, has seen the flick ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ for eight times until now but is still not satisfied, as he desires to watch the movie again and again in future.
Expressing his rave reviews for the movie, Hussain said, "It is a simple subject without any complications. This is what leading filmmakers must learn who unnecessarily complicate their movies."
Surprisingly, the 95 year old artist didn’t feel the need to put on his viewing glasses, while watching the motion picture. According to him, the gorgeous Anuskha had given such a power packed performance in ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’, that his weakened vision regained power merely on seeing her on-screen.
Articulating his liking for the actress, Hussain said, "It's still running to packed halls in its fourth week. Anushka was okay in the Shah Rukh starrer ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’, but in ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ she has proved what an intelligent actor she is. She knows what subtle acting is all about. Even Ranveer Singh is good."
Hussain’s pal on Hussain
Hussain, currently a big aficionado of Anushka Sharma, has seen the film ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ with his close buddies and family members.
Munna Javeri, one among Hussain’s close pals said, "In the cinema hall I was shocked to seen him remove his glasses. He knew all the dialogues and he viewed the film like a painting filled with colours. If only he had a brush in hand!"
Hussain’s earlier attractions
Hussain’s previous attractions include ‘Hum Aapke Hai Koun’ starring Madhuri Dixit and Salman Khan, which he has watched 73 times and ‘Vivaah’, starring Amrita Rao and Shahid Kapoor, which he has watched 20 times.
When asked for the reason behind adoring such movies, Hussain said, "It's not that because they are all wedding related. It is because they celebrate life and colours which I cherish."
