Nargis Fakri to debut at 31

Nargis Fakhri, the half Pakistani-half Czechoslovakian model from US, is debuting with Ranbir Kapoor in Imtiaz Ali's love story Rockstar.

The director has gone to great lengths to ensure that she remains hidden from the paparazzi. She has been asked not to speak to the media, and stay away from filmi events and parties. Though the paps did manage to click her on a secret date with her co-star Ranbir, the director is going to great lengths to ensure that she remains under wraps for the moment.

Not much is known about Nargis. Except news of her lunching with Neetu Kapoor at a five-star hotel in central Mumbai, her visit to the Kapoor bungalow, Krishna Raj and her movie date with RK Jr. However, there is a lot of speculation about her.

 A lot of things about this beauty have been discussed. Right from her bohemian nature to her being rejected on an American tube reality show, snippets on the girl (or should we say woman?) have been finding headlines. However what everyone seems to have missed is her age.

Says a source from the unit, "Nargis is 31. Even websites confirm that she was born on December 2, 1979. Yet the media has been missing this point."

One hears Nargis herself is quite open about her age and unlike our Katrinas, Asins and Priyankas who are static in their 20s (with each passing year they grow younger); this beauty doesn't even attempt to hide the fact that she is making her Bollywood debut at 30-plus.

Ironical it is that Nargis and Kareena Kapoor are both 31 this year. One has completed a decade in films... and the other is just about to start her innings. Talk of mature wine tasting the best, here's the most perfect example.
