One look at Lara on the latest cover of HiBlitz channeling an apsara and I cannot but help remember Rekha from Utsav. Considering the theme is ‘Apsaras From The Golden Era‘, wonder if Rekha is featured in the editorial? If not in real, then perhaps in tribute.

Rekha references aside, Ms. Dutta is looking quite ethereal herself! This is such a departure from the same ole covers and I love it although Priyanka doesn’t like it at all.The cover reminds her too much of the campy posters used to promote tourism back in seventies/eighties.

What say you about the cover?

Photoshoot Wars!

In real life, we doubt we’ll ever see these two wear the same outfit just because their individual styles are soo different but in this photoshoot they do (in the Amit Aggarwal for Morphe design) and so we gotta ask: Who do you like better?

HiBlitz’s April cover featuring Kangana Ranaut in what seems like a Rohit Bal outfit with a neckpiece by Kanika Saluja sure took us by surprise. We have to admit that we were impressed by the dramatically different theme, in this case channeling a warrior princess. Where Priyanka and I differ about the cover is at the belt. I think it doesn’t gel with the period theme, while Priyanka loves the modern touch that it gives the whole look.

Overall, we think it was a great effort and while I am somewhere between ‘On The Fence’ and ‘Love’, Priyanka is clearly in the ‘Love’ zone. what about you?

From The Archives: Priyanka in HiBlitz Dec 2008

Way before doing big hair for L’Officiel in Ferragamo, Priyanka also did a spread for HiBlitz back in December of 2008 with long tresses. While the L’Officiel cover was more edgy, this spread shot in Goa is more serene.

P.S. You can catch Preity in the same yellow Peacock gown here.
