        There's no stopping Bollywood on the occasion of Holi. The bounds of permissibility are cleverly dunked into the pool of colour and revelry that this robust festival makes allowances for. "And what's more, even if someone does get caught red-handed, he has a ready excuse: bura na maano, holi hai,'' says the editor of a film monthly.                                                                     Twenty-two years after his demise, Bollywood's original showman's parties are still a point of reference for the true spirit of what Holi actually allowed. Everyone remembers the pool in the centre where women, including a renowned kathak exponent, were drenched; only to resemble the film-maker's screen obsession for wet women in white.                                          The men, including those from the family, were invariably drunk by high noon and hands roamed free.                             Once upon a time the other big daddy of cinema also threw a private Holi bash at his suburban bungalow where he insisted that his heroines and starlets arrive. Daddy himself needed no excuses to get intimate... so bear hugs and tight clinches were as much a part of the itinerary at the Holi bash, as were the bhang and music.                             A beauty pageant winner who refused to play footsie with the film-maker on this day was thrown out of his film. Two years later she did make it to one of his movies; but that's only after she allowed him to put some gulal on her face at another of his Holi bashes.                             The current ruling Badshah threw a Holi party at his sea-facing bungalow eight years ago. He was then friends with his namesake with whom he is currently at loggerheads. And this superstar who takes off his shirt whenever opportunity presents itself was all over an actress (also a jewellery designer), oblivious to the others at the party.                 replica bag wholesale             What's more, even if someone gets caught red-handed, he has a ready excuse: bura na maano, holi hai                                    At the same party there was an actor who had just broken off his engagement with a leading actress. Naturally his single status was very attractive to an ambitious leading lady who lives in South Mumbai; she couldn't keep her hands off him. Holi, bhang and his 'solo' performance was a heady combination she found hard to resist.                             "Ironical that they call this festival Holi,'' says a conservative film-maker. "In Bollywood it actually means a time when unholy acts are put into practice.''                             At another superstar's bash, an award winning actress found a dozen excuses to hug the slightly inebriated elderly host. Fortunately, their physical intimacy went unnoticed by most because the party played out across his vast lawns, allowing guests to roam freely all over, as they gorged on gujiyas and home-made bhang.                             Just like in the movies, Holi in Bollywood is not always about wearing your lust on your sleeve. There are moments of innocent fun as well.                             There is a funny story making the rounds from an ethereal beauty's annual Holi bash. Apparently one year, the actress and her then DJ boyfriend forgot all about the bhang-laced cakes they had stocked in their refrigerator.                             Later that evening, some innocent guest and servants in the house relished them and passed out in the hall.                        Replica Cartier      An insider says that for the next 20-odd hours the actress' hall resembled a dormitory with men, women and servants sleeping alongside. And, what's more is that one starlet (who has acted in some art-house movies) even accused the heroine's brother of making a pass at her in his stupor.  Other articles:
