Urmila or Smita Patil?
Tuesday, August 12th, 2008I don’t know what’s it with people. Whenever I am introduced to someone, about one time in ten, someone will say that I look like someone. Sometimes its a friend, relative, sister, daughter…. or its some famous personality. The most common ones being Sushma Sharma (an OD consultant) Urmila and Smita Patil.
A friend of a friend actually convinced his wife when I went to meet her after having delivered her first child that I was Urmila’s sister!!!!
Naturally, this is not what I want. I’m certain all of us look like someone or the other, but hey, I am me, not a photocopy of someone.
Out of all these, the only comparisons I like are that with Smita Patil and Sushma – I honestly admire the women. The “fire” and passion in Smita’s roles, the assertive personality….. and its also in me. The spontaneity and presence of Sushma …… So at least I associate that comparison with someone acknowledging that in me. Urmila…… not a chance….. I just am not that stylish.
I don’t particularly look like either of them though….. you figure it out if you can:
- Smita Patil
- Smita Patil
- me – Vidyut Kale
- me -Vidyut Kale
- me – Vidyut Kale
- Urmila Matonkar
- Urmila again
