EXCLUSIVE HOT PIX of one of the hottest Bollywood movie stars ever! I had the pleasure of interviewing Zeenat and Amitabh Bachan in India not so long ago. They are great people. I can't show you the interviews, but I can show you some very hot pix that Zeenat gave me. For those not familiar with Bollywood cinema, here is some info on "Zeenat Baby" as she is often called... Zeenat Aman was born to a Muslim father and a Hindu Maharashtrian Brahmin mother. Her father, Amanullah, was one of the writers for the blockbuster movie Mughal-e-Azam. He died when Zeenat was just 13. Aman graduated from St. Xavier's College, Mumbai and went to Los Angeles for her studies. Upon returning to India, she first took a job as a journalist for Femina and then later on moved on to modeling.One of the first few brands that she modeled for was Taj Mahal Tea. She was the second runner up in the Miss India Contest and went on to win the Miss Asia Pacific in 1970. Upon making her debut in Bollywood, Aman was credited with bringing the Western heroine look to Hindi cinema, and thorughout her career has been considered a sex symbol. Aman's sultry persona was a contrast to many of the more conservative stars of the era. At a time when heroines were obedient wives and lovers on screen, Aman was drawn to more unconventional roles - she was cast as the opportunist who deserts her jobless lover for a millionaire (Roti Kapda Aur Makaan), the ambitious girl who considers aborting her baby to pursue a career (Ajnabee), the happy hooker (Manoranjan), the disenchanted hippie (Hare Rama Hare Krishna), the girl who falls in love with her mother's one-time lover (Prem Shastra), and a woman married to a caustic cripple but involved in an extramarital relationship (Dhund). She managed to balance these roles with acting in more conventional films such as Chori Mera Kaam, Chhaila Babu, Dostana and Lawaaris, which is considered by many to be a landmark in Indian Cinema.

Ram Kalaspurkar presents to the Maharashtrian Farming Community conspiracy of the Multinational Seed Companies which has pushed farmers of the country towards inevitable suicide. As commercial giants work towards monopoly of food production they make the common farmer kill his farm with his own hands by making him sow terminator seeds with a hope of better produce... Sly seed companies pushed second generation terminator seeds in the hands of the farmers. Todays almost all varieties of natural seeds have vanished... Mankind (farmers indeed) is about to be dependent on few multinationals for what is his most natural right, food grown of natural seeds.
