Aww! You won't believe what Lara Dutta's daughter wants to become on growing up

What's it like to sit side by side with a Bollywood actress in a tiny salon in Bandra on a sleepy Friday afternoon?

What's it like to sit side by side with a Bollywood actress in a tiny salon in Bandra on a sleepy Friday afternoon?

We were to find the answer to that over the weekend, when we found ourselves facing the bright and peppy Lara Dutta at her go to place for her hair requirements.

Lara Dutta

Dressed in a sport-sy little white dress, make up free, with her hair pulled back in a pony, Dutta spoke mostly of her daughter ("She's five going on fifty!") with a mother's pride.

Does she possess her parent's striking physicality, after all with tennis star Mahesh Bhupathi as dad, and a beauty pageant winner and actress as mom? "She does," said Dutta, "but she's just done with tennis lessons. Actually I think she wants to be a ballerina!"

Dutta was preparing for the evening ahead (dinner with husband and friends at a hip new eatery at BKC, and then on to the new lounge at a five-star) and would soon be off with family to Europe for the summer vacations.

And then she was off. But not before she'd been ambushed leaving the salon by a photographer, waiting to snap her pic. That's what it's like sharing the salon with a star on a sleepy Friday afternoon in Bandra!
