When photographer Dabboo Ratnani launches his annual calendar, all of Bollywood stops by for the first look.
This year, the photo pro unveiled his 2015 calendar on January 5 to a long list of star muses. There to see their pictures (all hanging on a wall of fame) were Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Shraddha Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Bipasha Basu, Jacqueline Fernandez, Arjun Rampal and Abhishek Bachchan. From the fashion front, Nachiket Barve stopped by, along with jewellery designer Farah Khan Ali.
When they weren’t posing with their pictures and jamming Ratnani’s Twitter feed with doodles and selfies, the stars posed with Ratnani’s daughters (both in shimmering gowns that couldn’t be missed) and tried their hands at taking pictures with a professional camera.
What’s on the star-studded camera film? Pictures displayed at the party included an ecstatic Jacqueline Fernandez jumping in bed, Shah Rukh’s rock-hard Happy New Year abs, and Bipasha Basu flaunting that super-fit bikini body of hers.
A favourite lensman in the industry, Ratnani has worked with almost every star, upcoming and established, in the past, and began putting together calendars in 2000. His 15th edition consists of 24 images, 12 of Bollywood’s leading women, 12 of the industry’s male leads.
