Download image as wallpaper Maharashtra has witnessed it. Now, it's turn for Bihar to follow suit. We are referring to the 'Bollywood Calling' phenomena that strikes the sons of the politicians. First it was Riteish Deshmukh, the son of Maharashtra's ex-Vilasrao Deshmukh. Now, it's Chirag Paswan, the son of the Bihar MP and former Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan, who is all set to make his acting debut with One And Only. The film, that's being directed by Tanveer Khan (Deadline: Sirf 24 Ghante), has the curvaceous Kangna Ranaut playing one of the lead roles. If the reports are to be believed, then, the film happens to be a love story, which has Chirag paired opposite three actresses, viz., Kangna Ranaut, Sagarika Ghatge and Neeru Bajwa. One And Only is being produced by producer Anuj Saxena's Maverick Productions.

He is a man who hasn't defined perfection, but has given it a whole new definition, in his own sweet ways. He is someone, with whom the term 'Innocent' fits to a 'T'. We are indeed talking about Shekar Kapoor, the man with the 'Midas Touch'. Shekar is also the man who is our 'Birthday Baby' for the day! Having started his career working with a multi-national oil company, Shekar moved to Great Britain in 1970, and worked as an Accountant and Management Consultant. After that, was what one would call as 'Bollywood Calling'. After having acted in many serials and films, he gave Bollywood its first ever taste of 'Innocence' through his first film Masoom, a film that, till today, stands as one of the highlights of the magical tinsel town. Add to that India's evergreen answer to the fantasy genre Mr. India, a film that set unprecedented records.
